Chapter 287
Kyushu is vast, rich in natural treasures, and there is no shortage of all kinds of resources.
Specific to states and counties, the distribution of resources is completely different.
Why is the unified Han dynasty strong, and why can it be revered as the superior kingdom of the Celestial Empire?
In the final analysis, under the premise of great unification, the imperial dynasty can transfer imperial materials from all over the country, balance the deficiencies of various states, and develop in a balanced manner, but with the disintegration of great unification, this situation does not exist.
The Song Dynasty was prosperous in commerce, relying on caravans that traveled in various states and sucking blood from supplies from all over Kyushu, but it was not a reaction to the reciprocal situation, and the resources of Sili and Zhuzhou were poor.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation, especially food and clothing!
Clothing, each place has its own solution, only in the quantity of more and less, the quality of the inferior.
One of the foods, the staple food is poor in the north and rich in the south, which is the same pattern for the ages, especially in the upper and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, which is now the largest grain-producing area in Kyushu, and salt and iron are the opposite, showing the status quo of being rich in the east and poor in the west.
But these resources, Si Li, and Zhuzhou, do not account for all, and to be specific, they do not account for much.
For example, at the moment, if the Wu Dynasty cut off the iron ore of the Song Dynasty, even if the Song Dynasty had a large amount of wealth, it would not be able to buy enough iron ore, and it could only eat the old capital, how exhausted the old capital was, and the war potential of the Song Dynasty would be exhausted one day, after all, it would be impossible for the Song Dynasty to go to the battlefield with wooden sticks and stones.
Even more ridiculous, after the expansion of land from the Han Dynasty to the present, there are not many forests in the territory of Zhuzhou and Sili, and the siege giant trees in the Song Dynasty cannot be found all over the country.
Don't look at the current exchange of fire between the two countries, but on the bright side, the business in the secret has not stopped.
"Since you can go deeper, the problem will be easy to solve!"
The equation took out a treasury bond and shook it with Huang An's eyes, "If I'm not mistaken, you should have bought a lot, right?" ”
"One thousand taels!"
Huang An smiled, "I can't trust others, can I still trust you?" If it weren't for the damn limit, I'd still like to buy a little more! ”
For the understanding of money and national bonds, Huang An does not say more, and their group of people who have been with the equation for nearly a year are definitely the ones who understand it the most.
When encountering such a good thing as a national distribution, how could Huang An not start.
"Rich!"
One thousand taels, not everyone can take it out.
Don't look at Huang An as a child of the clan, but the clan inheritance, the inheritance is stillborn, not any cash and silver.
Huang An smiled, but didn't explain anything.
"Since you bought a lot, you must have drawn the lottery?"
"I have drawn, but my luck is not very good, I haven't touched the second prize!" The corners of Huang An's mouth twitched slightly, "To be honest, did you do anything about the lottery process, one thousand taels, one hundred chances, one in thirty probability, even if you can't draw the jackpot, the result is not even the second prize, if you don't do it, I don't believe anything!" ”
The issuance area of treasury bonds is concentrated in the south, but Tai'an City is also the top priority, and the 23 money banks in the city have undertaken the task of selling 690,000 taels.
Each family is 30,000 or 20,000, setting up a first prize and five second prizes, if Huang An really concentrates on buying 1,000 taels in one house, the probability of winning is really very high.
Hearing this, the equation smiled, "Don't ask me, the person in charge of the case, maybe they have any ideas, and besides, do you lack that?" ”
"I don't care about the things given by the first prize, and I know your plans, but the problem is, the first prize is a bearskin!"
Lottery prizes are drawn from official warehouses in various places.
What is the most in the official warehouse and what is the most valuable?
Fur, right nowhere.
It seems that the first prize in Tai'an City is based on the whole skin of the four beasts.
Bearskin, as a symbol of strength, who wouldn't want to stuff an extra one or two into their home?
It's not that Huang An can't get the bear skin, but there is no reasonable way, and he doesn't dare to wear it at will if he gets it.
Equation flicked his chin, "How does the lottery feel?" ”
"It's okay, of course if you don't have the hands and feet!"
The prizes are all won in vain, even if it is just a bucket of salt to participate in the award, it is easy for the Wu Dynasty to extract salt from Qingzhou and the seaside salt farm, but the road fee, freight fee, salt introduction fee, everything costs money, and it really falls into the hands of the people, how can a bucket of salt have to have fifty or sixty Wen.
Draw a bucket, a household for three or four months of salt does not need to buy, how can the people participating in the lottery not be satisfied.
Even if you don't think about anything else, save a single treasury bond of 500 wen and take a bucket of salt, and you will earn it in the end.
"So, what do you think would happen if I extended this model to the territory of the Song Dynasty?"
"How?"
Huang An frowned slightly, "I don't think it's good, you've already played a sideline in the national debt lottery, wait, it's not right......"
The Wu Dynasty had three prohibitions, a ban on alcohol, a ban on gambling, and a ban on night, for the source and culture, and some for the source and survival.
For example, the prohibition of alcohol is in the consideration of survival, of course, this prohibition is not in drinking, but in the brewing process, after all, without alcohol, the long winter will not joke with people, as for the shortage, it will be transported in little by little through the caravan.
The same is true of the ban, the night is too cold, except for the short summer, nine months of the year, the night is not so good, even if it is the night market in Tai'an City, it will be closed when the time comes, and those who do not leave will stay inside the night market.
The prohibition of gambling comes from culture and cognition, the clan giants regard gambling as a cancer, the samurai regard gambling as corruption, and the common people will not be affected by this.
Occasionally, even some underground gambling houses will be knocked down as soon as they come up.
"That's what you're going to do!"
Huang An's pupils widened slightly, and he looked at the equation with an incredible face, "The Song people are good at gambling, and the extravagance runs through the top and bottom, even if they are literati and ink writers, they are also fun, and it is not obtrusive to start from now on, but the problem is that there are casinos in general gambling, what do we do from the beginning, we can't let them buy treasury bonds!" ”
After speaking, Huang An himself laughed.
The national debt is in the equation, how many things have happened.
Eight million taels into the warehouse, so that the Song Dynasty on the other side of the Yellow River high-level look dizzy, they are afraid of how they did not expect that its perennial implementation of the economic blockade policy will be easily unraveled by the martial arts, in this way, decades of layout, not to mention the layout of a lonely one, but also the loss of a large number of imperial city division masters.
Losing these eyes, Huang An didn't know what the Song Dynasty Imperial City Division headquarters was like, but anyone with a little brain knew that people's lives would definitely be difficult now.
At this time, if the Wu Dynasty pushes the national debt in the past, I am afraid that the store will not be smashed directly.
"Of course it won't be possible to use government bonds!" The equation points to the data on the check, "See this string of codes?" ”
"Paper is special, printing is also special, coding and then do plus, just spend a little time, it is easy to make a special bill, a bill ten cents, that is, buy that is, open, in the same batch, set up a second, three third, a second prize will be twenty taels, the second prize five taels, the third prize one tael, the fourth class three hundred wen, the fifth class twenty wen, we just need to do a good calculation, do you think there will be a sale?"
Turning his wrist, the equation smiled cruelly, "At the same time, we can also add some stories and attract local families to participate in it, do you think this method is feasible?" ”
