Chapter 708: Promoting Consumption

Zhao Kuangyin took a deep breath and said: "Zongxin, you are already rich enough, why bother to make these small sums of money again? ”

"In order to promote economic development, consumption power is the most important thing in economic development, and if everyone keeps their money and does not have to go out, a country's economy will collapse immediately. Therefore, it is necessary to let the people use all the money, and then let them earn it back, only the circulating economy can be called the economy, the money spent is called money, and what is left in the hand is a useless piece of iron. ”

Zhao Kuangyin pouted and said: "No, Zongxin, isn't it a good thing that everyone has money? Why do you have to spend it? If you spend it, you will be poor, do you want everyone in the world to be poor?"

"Didn't you listen when I was talking about economics?" Zong Xin looked at Zhao Kuangyin in surprise: "Aren't you most interested in money?"

Tianya explained: "Master, when you talked about economics, we were on our way to Khitan, and Uncle Zhao was called by you to send Zhao Jingniang back to his hometown, and you arranged for him to meet He Meiyu by chance. So Uncle Zhao didn't hear the economics class. ”

"No wonder, I just said, how can you not remember when it comes to money?" Zong Xin said: "Economics is actually very simple, since it is in this era, it is enough to know the two points of income and expenditure. The country's tax revenue comes from the consumption of the people, if the people do not consume, the state will have no taxes, the country will not have money to spend on the army after the country has no taxes, the army will not go out to drink and eat to support the family without income, and the shops will not hire people to work after they have no business, and the people will lose their jobs because of this, so they will only get poorer and poorer. But if those shops make a lot of money, they will also increase the wages of the people, and the people will spend and pay taxes when they have money, and after the country has money, it will develop vigorously, and the people will become richer and richer. Therefore, it is very necessary to stimulate consumption, so that people can spend their money, and only after they spend it can they earn it back. ”

Zhao Kuangyin nodded: "It seems to make sense, this is a cycle, right." ”

"Yes, it's a cycle, the cycle will get better and better in the good direction, and the cycle will get worse and worse if it goes in the bad direction. And this circle, as long as one point is broken, the whole circle will collapse. Zong Xin said: "So in this world, we need good people and bad people, and the court needs loyal ministers, and we also need traitorous ministers." If all the loyal subjects were there, the country would surely perish, and it would perish even sooner. ”

"I don't understand this sentence again, if the country is full of loyal ministers, of course it's a good thing, why do you need traitorous ministers?" Zhao Kuangyin understood the question just now, but Zhao Kuangyin was confused about this question again, it doesn't matter, this is just an example given by Zong Xin, and this example may not be appropriate.

Zong Xin said: "It's like a food chain, rats hate it, right? Everyone wants to kill all the rats, but ...... If the rats were to disappear completely, it would be devastating to everything. Snakes, cats, eagles, and many other small carnivores that depend on rats for their livelihood will starve to death. When these animals starve to death, the large carnivores that eat these animals will also starve to death, and then all animals in the world will starve to death. Good things are necessary, but bad things are also necessary, heaven and earth are like this, there is yin and yang is the sky, don't always think about the good side, in fact, the bad side is also very necessary for the society. ”

Zhao Kuangyin seems to understand whether he understands or not, but Zong Xin's words make sense, whether his words are right or not, anyway, as long as the words that come out of his mouth are convincing. Perhaps this is the personal charm of Zongxin, his words can easily impress others...... Otherwise, how could there be four wives?

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Zongxin...... You say you want to stimulate consumption, but the entire Central Plains is so huge, with your dozens of truckloads alone, it shouldn't stimulate much. You should do something more meaningful, in fact, you took this Silk Road to heal the golden threads of the body, there is no need to say so meaningful. ”

Zhao Kuangyin thought that he had seen through Zongxin, and he was just making an excuse for himself. Zongxin's purpose of taking this trip to the Silk Road is very clear to everyone, he just wants to cure his golden silk veins, which is definitely the main reason. As for other secondary reasons, Zongxin will always make excuses.

Zong Xin shook his head and said, "You don't understand, I once said that I want to bring back a clear and transparent wine from the Silk Road, and a more fragrant wine, right? This kind of wine will be a great stimulus to consumption." Everyone in the Central Plains will start drinking this kind of wine, and it is not cheap to make, and it takes a long time, otherwise...... This business is more profitable than selling salt. ”

"You...... Will it really make everyone in the world like to drink this kind of wine?" Zhao Kuangyin said: "It's just a kind of wine, it shouldn't have such a big charm." Who doesn't know how to make wine? You don't have to come to buy wine. ”

Zong Xin chuckled and said, "This kind of wine is not brewed, so ordinary people can't make it at all." As long as we have drunk this kind of wine, the kind of wine we drink now will almost be eliminated, because the aroma of wine is not comparable at all. What I drink in the Central Plains now can basically be collectively referred to as rice wine, and what I am going to bring back to the Central Plains is soju. In fact, I also left the temple to know, the Central Plains so far all the wine is rice wine, no wonder the ancients can a thousand cups without getting drunk, the strength of rice wine is too poor, the alcohol content is too low, and there is no difference from drinking water. Shochu is the real thing. ”

Zhao Kuangyin nodded, although he didn't understand very much, what Zong Xin said made sense. So far, Zongxin has created countless miracles, and Zhao Kuangyin is used to it. It's strange that he doesn't do anything earth-shattering.

However, Zhao Kuangyin is very much looking forward to this wine, and he is also very eager for the upcoming business. Zongxin said that because of some conditions, the business of selling wine did not make money by selling salt. In other words, selling wine can actually be more profitable than selling salt......

Zhao Kuangyin really doesn't know that in addition to directly digging gold mines, can there be a more profitable business than selling salt?

In fact, selling salt in the past was not particularly profitable, because the cost of boiling salt was too high, and the salt production was very slow, and the quality was not good. However, after Zongxin invented the salt drying method, it completely subverted the salt production of the entire Central Plains. Almost an empty glove white wolf, it only needs a few workers to meet the demand for salt in the entire Central Plains. You can make as much money as you sell, and most of the Central Plains are eating salt from Salt Island, which is not only cheap but also of good quality...... This is the most profitable business in the world, because this business is too big, and it does not require capital at all.

Now Zongxin says he can make a more lucrative deal than selling salt...... It's really hard to imagine how much money Zong Xin has to make. After returning to the Central Plains again, it is estimated that the whole world will be boiling again. A large amount of silver is going to go into Rayhon's treasury again.

In fact, Zhao Kuangyin knows very well that Zongxin can't spend so much money at all, and in addition to interest and innovation, he should make money to activate the economy. Of course, there is no doubt that the money will end up in your pocket. Zongxin himself said that what the country needs is taxes, which are used to support the army and then supplied to the people, and the people's consumption is returned to the state, so that the country can become richer and stronger.

Zhao Kuangyin knew that Zong Xin had never been a greedy and selfish person, and he would have to study hard in the future and try to lower his opinion of money. However, everything I did since I was a child was mainly based on money, and although it is a little late to change now, it is much better than before...... Because of the abandonment of Shioshima Issei's income, some things have begun to fade.

At that time, Zhao Kuangyin knew that why he picked it up and put it down was the state of mind of the monks, and it was precisely because he put it down that his mood improved, and his martial arts also improved. Of course, the main reason for the improvement of martial arts is Bu Xiangyang's incomplete Quartet Rulai Divine Skill.

"Don't talk about this, Xianggong is working hard today, let's go to the inn to drink. The demon said, "Xianggong, I have found that the people on this side of the Uighurs are indeed simple, the things here are very cheap, and the girls here are very beautiful. But it's very strange why the Uighurs are so hot, and the girls here are whiter than those in the Central Plains? I remember the last time I went to the Toyosu Desert, I only basked in the sun for a few days, and my skin was a little tanned. ”

This is indeed a very strange question, most of the Uighur girls are white, and their skin is more beautiful than that of the Central Plains. But generally speaking, in such a big place as the sun, girls should be darker, and even demons will be tanned by the sun, how can Uighur women be so white?

Everyone looked at Zong Xin, this is indeed a very strange question, if they know the answer to this question, these five women around them can always maintain their white and tender skin. Even Zhao Kuangyin and Tianya want to know the secret.

Zong Xin said depressedly: "Why are you asking me? How do I know?"

"Oh~~~~~~"

It turned out that Zongxin didn't know everything, which surprised everyone. But I also admire the demon, she is the first to ask a question that Zongxin can't answer. In the past, everyone thought that Zongxin knew everything, but sure enough, he was not a god, and he also knew something.

The group went to the inn, and Zongxin and his party went to the inn for nothing else, just to eat. Except for the five women, all of them were foodies, including their mounts. Zongxin's wolf is a little more relaxed, just give them some meat, but Zhao Kuangyin's black cow is very troublesome, and he must burn all the iron and charcoal for him before eating.

The black goat in Xizhou City is indeed the best in the world, the meat is fat, tender and delicious, and there is not only roast mutton here, but also a soup pot. However, the people here don't like to eat stir-fried food, and it is okay, and the group is very happy to eat.
