Qiming 1158

Chapter 1240 The poor ghosts of Sichuan and Shu are exhausted

As an economic worker, Jiang Fu felt that Zhao Bunyi would not fail to understand the consequences of what he was going to do.

However, Zhao Buxi still decided to do so.

Therefore, as the minister of households, Jiang Fu felt that he had to say something.

"Your Majesty, it is possible to tide over the difficulties in this way, but there may be some problems in the private warehouses and exchange shops, and the Jiaozi is also likely to depreciate on a large scale. If the loss of the library and the cashier shop is too heavy, it may be true..."

Something is going to happen.

Something big will happen.

What Jiang Fu said was absolutely true.

In the face of Jiang Fu's truth, Zhao Buxi was unhappy.

"Of course I know what will go wrong, but is now the time to think about it? There is a problem with the Jieku and Duibian shops. It is a civil problem. The treasury is empty, and the court is gone. Now the most important thing is to protect the treasury. So... just don't do it again and again!"

Zhao Buxi was talking when he suddenly thought of something, thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and made a very ruthless determination.

Jiang Fu was puzzled.

"Don't do it again and again? What does Your Majesty mean?"

Zhao Buxi looked at Jiang Fu for a while, then whispered: "You can add more Jiaozi, and then send some people to pretend to be civilians as soon as possible, and use this part of Jiaozi to go to various places of the people to unpack and exchange a small number of times. Coins, or borrowing for various reasons, all the coins obtained are sent to the national treasury for storage."

Jiang Fu was stunned for a while after hearing this, and then turned pale in shock.

Zhao Bunyi didn't plan to take the initiative to detonate the mines buried by the people, right?

Abandoning the car to protect the handsome is a bit too ruthless, right?

Not only to make money from the rich, but also to send the rich to hell with your own hands?

"Your Majesty, this..."

"To protect the state treasury or to protect the liberation of the treasury, to protect the court or to protect the people, you don't need me to tell you what to choose, right? Jiang Butang, if there is a court, everything will be there, without a court, everything will be over!"

Zhao Buxi looked at Jiang Fu with a bad expression, and gave him the most severe warning and threat.

Jiang Fu swallowed, his heart pounding.

Others don't know, don't they who are engaged in economic work still don't know?

Don't they know who are the people behind these Jieku and Duibian shops?
Can anyone with no background be able to engage in finance these days?

Zhao Buyi did this. Obviously, Xiangzhuang danced his sword at Pei Gong. Obviously, under the repeated operations of the Chengdu court and the bureaucrats, the poor ghosts of Sichuan and Sichuan had run out of mountains and rivers, and there was no more oil and water to squeeze.

They are now a group of skeletons covered with a human skin, forcibly propping up a person, without even the marrow, they can't even knock the bones and suck the marrow.

So Zhao Buxi had no choice but to start targeting the rich for his own survival.

but……

Rich people are the foundation of the Song Dynasty. What is the difference between taking a shot at your foundation and cutting your own feet with a knife?
It's hard to say who is behind these storehouses and cashiers, who are the owners, and who are inextricably linked with court officials!
He felt that with the IQ of those people, it would not be so easy to be deceived.

It might be fine at the beginning, but after a little longer, the shopkeepers outside the warehouses and cashier shops will definitely find clues and find that someone is collecting folk coins.

Although it still takes some time, during this period, as long as the operation is done properly, the court can obtain a large amount of coins from the people and store them in the treasury, and the money shortage of the treasury may be compensated to a certain extent.

But in this way, the entire private business environment is estimated to be not far from complete collapse.

The previous economic blockade of the Ming and Lin'an puppet dynasties has hit the Sichuan economy hard. Many Jieku and Duiben shops went bankrupt because of some commercial investments, and even a large number of depositors went bankrupt because of this incident.

It was just that the Chengdu court at that time knew that it was necessary to stabilize the economic situation, so it did some work, such as arresting a group of store owners who were unable to repay the depositors, and the owners of the cashier shops, in order to ease public opinion.

Although it is impossible to pay back the money.

The Mi riot that followed was not known whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. Anyway, civilians who went bankrupt because of this wave of economic blockade basically participated in the Mi riot and were killed as rebels in the subsequent crackdown.

There is no troublemaker, so this wave of financial crisis can be regarded as a near miss.

The surviving Jieku and Duiben shops also felt that the current situation was not good because of this wave of shocks. There were not a few people who took the initiative to close down. The remaining ones were either well-capitalized or bold.

In other words, it is the backstage hard.

When Jiang Fu was not yet the Minister of the Household, he heard that there were private depositors using ridiculously high interest rates to attract depositors, and he didn't know where their courage came from.

But there are really some greedy guys who don't have the right brains to take out the money and deposit it, pointing to get high interest.

Under such circumstances, if someone followed Zhao Buyi's method, it is estimated that the entire system of private warehouses and cashier shops would explode and collapse, turning them into ruins, and their backers would suffer heavy losses as a result.

Their resentment...

Can Zhao Buxi bear it?

"Your Majesty, the money used by the court is important, but the unity within the court is equally important, so this minister thinks..."

Jiang Fu felt that what he said was in place, and he did not dare to continue.

"Why, are these things involved in your family?"

Zhao Buxi looked at Jiang Fu with a bad expression.

Jiang Fu shook his head again and again.

"No, Chen's family is all engaged in farming, farming and family heirlooms, and these things are not involved."

"Then go for it. The most important thing is to quell the rebellion. It takes a while. As long as the war is over, everything will get better."

Zhao Buxi waved his hand and said with a tired face: "Since we have decided to print Jiaozi, we should print more, so that the soldiers have greater incentives to fight more bravely, so that we can win more quickly. The consequences will be smaller.

By the way, there is one more point, this news must be strictly blocked, and no one can know it, especially the people in the market. Don't throw out all of this batch of Jiaozi in one go, take your time, as long as there is a little bit of news. Let it out, Jiang Butang, you know the consequences. "

Jiang Fu certainly knew the consequences.

It's going to kill people, and a lot of people will die.

If it doesn't work out, Zhao Buxi himself will be buried.

He didn't say these words, he knew that he shouldn't talk too much, what Zhao Buxi said, he would do what he did, otherwise it would not be a problem of losing the official position.

Whether there is a small life is debatable.

After returning to the Ministry of Housing, Jiang Fu also slowly figured out why Zhao Buxi did this.

Unscrupulous means to survive is one of them, but if you think about it carefully, the most fundamental force for the court to maintain its rule is force.

As long as the Chengdu treasury has money and can send money to the army, then the Chengdu court can be maintained, and Zhao Bunyi's status as emperor can be maintained.

As for the price, it is nothing more than scraping the oil and water from the last batch of folks who still have a little oil and water, and at the same time squeeze oil from the fat backers behind them.

It doesn't matter what they are.

Anyway, no matter when, these guys are the richest, and they have the most copper coins, iron coins, gold, silver, pearls, jade, etc. in their hands. Using Jiaozi to attack them once may not really make them lose too much, not necessarily make them bankrupt.

But it will definitely make them suffer a lot.

For this group of people, they have always been the only ones who plundered others, how can anyone else plunder them?

Not even the emperor.

Jiang Fu could even imagine how hysterical these guys would be after the incident.
