Chapter 134: National Debt

Teaching still has to be taught.

From the most basic how to arrange the march, to how to choose the location to camp in.

From maintaining military discipline to boosting morale, from arranging grain and grass to checking astronomy and geography.

Every bit and every drop is learning.

If you want to arrange it properly, take them thousands of miles and then fight desperately, where is it so easy to move your mouth and even tens of thousands of thousands of miles.

Li Yunze is experienced, but he is just experienced.

This is the first time that I have truly learned systematically.

As a traverser, he didn't feel how good he was.

What you don't understand is still not understood, and what you should learn is still to be learned.

He used to learn secretly, watching how the generals did it, and secretly learning it himself.

In terms of Li Yunze's real command ability, that is, he is stronger than a certain 'machine gun position moving five meters to the left,' and he can command several thousand people like an arm.

But once the number of people is huge, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, they simply rely on inertia to do things, rely on generals at all levels to take charge, and the opponent can only do their best if they can't do it.

Now, it's a very good tonic opportunity.

Study in the morning, train in the afternoon, and go home in the evening.

When he was sleeping, Li Yunze also sighed that if he could work so hard when he was in school, he would have been admitted to a good school, and now he can be a lawyer or a doctor or something.

Don't mention the character or anything, at least at the end of the year, the department can also hang banners to divide the votes. ลดลดลด.BIQUGE.biz

It's like now, I have a system that I don't know what it is, and I have to run to a parallel world to practice and go to class, and I'm tired to death all day long.

On this day, Li Yunze, who had finished his training in the army, rode back to the East Palace on the horse given by Zhu Di, but was hurriedly told by the internal supervisor that he was summoned by the emperor's imperial study.

No, Tang Mu didn't have time to turn around and go to the imperial study.

In addition to Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi's three brothers are all here, and there are many important ministers and nobles in the court.

Li Yunze saw at a glance the masters sent to Sado Island by the inner government with the fleet, and immediately understood what was going on.

"Here we are."

Zhu Di, who was sitting on the dragon chair, crossed his legs and snorted, "The people in the inner house are back, what kind of small broken island, there is indeed a big gold mountain, a big silver mountain." โ€

Sado Island is actually not small at all, with an overall area of more than 1,000 square kilometers.

It's just that in the eyes of Emperor Ming, this area is indeed a small broken island.

It doesn't matter if you have a small broken island, you just need gold and silver.

Several masters explained to Li Yunze that there was a lot of gold and silver over there, and there was no doubt that it was a big mine.

The only thing to worry about is that it is located in a remote area, and if you want to open a mine, you must invest a lot of manpower.

"It's easy to say." Li Yunze looked at Zhu Di, "Although the country is small, there are many people. Take military funds and ordnance to exchange people to open mines, and mine them to the death. โ€

In the era when there was no mechanized equipment, if you wanted to open a mine, you had to fill in the land with people.

Those who are kinder can live longer.

If you are anxious and just want to get out of the mine as soon as possible, if you want to get out of the mine as soon as possible, then there is nothing to say, and you really want to exchange your life.

The three brothers didn't speak, they were indeed short of silver, especially Zhu Gaochi.

If this is done in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, with the people of the Ming Dynasty, he will definitely not agree.

But after all, it's a Japanese country... Who cares?

The nobles didn't care, they heard that they could get gold and silver, but they were full of interest.

There are moral gentlemen among the ministers, but it is still the same sentence, this is not in the Ming Dynasty.

Glancing at everyone's reactions, Zhu Di said indifferently, "Then do it." Third. โ€

Zhao Jian, Wang Zhu Gaosui, immediately came out of the queue happily.

"Select a batch of ordnance and military materials from the army and send them to the Wa State with Zheng He's ship."

Speaking of this, Zhu Di looked at Yang Pu, "You have been to the Wa Kingdom before, is there anything easy to get started there?" โ€

"Yes." Yang Pu saluted: "The Ashikaga shogun is the most powerful in the Wa Kingdom, but there are many people in various places who do not obey him. As long as you give support, and hint a little secretly, you can naturally stir up trouble. โ€

"I'll leave this matter to you." Zhu Di unequivocally ordered Yang Pu's general, "No matter what method you use, just go to the mines to find people, and then transport the gold and silver back." โ€

"Minister, Commander."

As one of the famous Three Yangs, Yang Pu naturally has the ability.

It was not difficult for him to do these things.

"Alright."

Zhu Di waved his hand, "Since the gold and silver have been settled, let's prepare to send troops to Mobei next year." โ€

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Gaochi and the civil officials looked solemn, but Zhu Gaochi and the nobles were full of smiles.

The nobles love to fight, because only when they fight can they be rewarded for meritorious service and promotion.

Zhu Gaoxu loves to fight, because on the one hand, like Zhu Di, he naturally likes to fight. On the other hand, it is because it can strengthen the military power in the hands.

But the housekeeper Zhu Gaochi and the civil officials couldn't stand it.

What costs money to fight a war costs a lot of money. And it will also consume countless materials, grain and grass.

"Your Majesty." Yang Rong came out to salute, "I only went out last year, and the gold and silver of the Japanese country have not yet arrived, and many places have also been affected this year..."

"Don't talk about that." Zhu Di waved his hand very simply: "Go to the prince for such things." I'll just send troops. It's all gone, and Junki stays. โ€

Everyone left one after another with strange expressions, leaving only Li Yunze and Zhu Di.

The two were relatively speechless, but after a long time, Zhu Di sighed, "Do you know, why am I in a hurry to send troops?" โ€

Li Yunze thought for a while and asked tentatively, "But the dragon body is unswerving?" โ€

"Recently, my body has become more and more uncomfortable." Zhu Di was stunned and speechless at first, shocked that Li Yunze really dared to speak. Then he hesitated for a moment, but still confided in his heart, "It's very uncomfortable when it rains." Come to think of it, time is running out. โ€

At this time, Li Yunze naturally said something good about the situation, long live long live.

What he said, let alone Zhu Di, he didn't believe it himself.

"I have a horse all my life, and if I want to die, I have to die on the battlefield!" Zhu Di's expression gradually became majestic, "I still have a wish to be fulfilled, I must destroy the northern desert tribe and completely cut off the threat of the northern land!" โ€

Ambitious and ambitious to do it all.

It's a pity that it didn't work out.

After finishing speaking, Zhu Di finally turned to business, "The court is silver, do you have any good way to raise military expenses?" โ€

Li Yunze's previous proposal to 'borrow' the gold and silver of the Japanese Kingdom really impressed Zhu Di.

The problem is that you can't get your hands on it in a hurry.

After all, gold and silver are buried in the ground, and it takes time to mine and refine them.

At this time, Zhu Di lacks time the most.

He wanted to do all the big things before he died, but the court really couldn't come up with any money.

As we all know, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army in the state of full salary can be called the first in Asia.

But once they can't give enough money, then their combat effectiveness...

Zhu Di, who has been in the army for a long time, understands this better than anyone else.

Sending troops to Mobei, the sergeants and civilians were rewarded with silver, the purchase of various military funds, the treatment of the wounded, the bereavement of the war dead, the burning of silver, and so on.

The larger the scale, the longer the war lasts, and the amount of goods needed is astronomical.

Zhu Di had no choice, so he just wanted to see if Li Yunze could come up with any good way to spend some money.

Hearing this, Li Yunze smiled and bowed, "This matter is easy." โ€

His attitude really made Zhu Di a little stunned, "You think clearly, this is not tens of thousands of taels, at least it is a shortage of millions of taels." โ€

"Three months."

Li Yunze raised three fingers: "Within three months, it is not difficult to raise 10 million taels of silver. โ€

Zhu Di simply got up, walked in front of Li Yunze, and stared at him with his back, "Say!" โ€

"Sell Treasury bonds!"

Zhu Di had never heard of what a national debt was, and the doubts on his face were even greater, "Tell me carefully!" โ€

"With the imperial court taxes as a guarantee for finance, and in the name of His Majesty's fame. Selling treasury bonds to the whole world, 10 million taels for two years, can give three cents of interest. Li Yunze talked eloquently, "In fact, it used to be sold to Jiangnan, so it takes more time, after all, Jiangnan is rich." If it is only sold in Beijing, ten days is enough. โ€

Zhu Di frowned: "This is a treasure banknote?" Don't you know that the treasure money is no longer cared for? โ€

The Ming Dynasty also has banknotes, which are called Ming treasure banknotes.

This thing could have greatly alleviated the shortage of precious metal currency, but unfortunately it was broken by Zhu Yuanzhang.

He and the ministers thought that this thing was infinitely exchangeable, and they could exchange paper for money as much as they wanted.

As a result, the credibility of the treasure banknote plummeted, and now the treasure banknote can only be exchanged for 100 yuan, but the face value is 1,000 yuan!

What's more, basically no one wants to take it.

"Of course it's not a treasure bank." Li Yunze simply shook his head, "This is a loan, not a thing that specializes in cheating money." Therefore, it is necessary to use taxes as a guarantee, and to guarantee the reputation of His Majesty. Once you lose your trust, you won't be able to pay it back then, and you will lose your majesty's face. โ€

"After the issuance of treasury bonds, you can exchange silver taels from the household department or the inner government at any time, but there is no interest. If you haven't redeemed it after two years, you can continue to hold it and exchange it at any time. โ€

Li Yunze sighed, "If it weren't for the previous treasure money that ruined his reputation, he wouldn't have been so troublesome." In order to be able to issue it better, I have to ask His Majesty for a holy decree. โ€

Zhu Di, who had his hands behind his back, walked around a few times, "Let's talk about it." โ€

"Please decree that the national debt will not be confiscated."

Hearing this, Zhu Di suddenly turned to look at Li Yunze.

Li Yunze calmly said, "Those who can afford to buy treasury bonds are naturally people with net worth, especially large households." If they commit a crime and their homes are raided, they can continue to hold the national debt if they do not copy it, which will inevitably attract everyone to rush to buy it. โ€

Speaking of which, Zhu Di already roughly understood.

If you want to talk about it, this is indeed a good way to quickly gather wealth in a short period of time.

The price to be paid is also a lot.

Especially if you don't copy it...

In ancient times, even the bricks on the ground were warped for you.

Want to hide money? Dream on.

No matter how much wealth you have before, once you raid your family, you will inevitably be destitute.

But if the national debt is not confiscated, the rich family will indeed buy frantically to protect the family wealth.

Zhu Di instinctively wanted to refuse, but when he thought that he would need a lot of money and food to send troops to Mobei, he was silent.

At this time, Li Yunze once again said, "Treasury bonds can be sold every year, and the money borrowed this year will be repaid last year's money, that is, Yin will eat grain." As long as you can win, plus the continuous import of gold and silver from all over the world. When everyone gets used to it and the credit is established, it can be modified again. โ€

Zhu Di, who had been wandering around for a long time with his hands behind his back, finally stomped his feet.

"Yes."
