I am the king of the dead

Chapter 362 The banknote method is safer than the money method

Yu Qian remained silent, the topic finally became dangerous the moment Li Xian opened his mouth.

Yu Qian still doesn't know what is in those fourteen questions, but he has the answer to this question.

Whether or not to recognize private rights is an extremely important topic.

Yu Qian recognized private rights, so he never got involved in the fight between the Ministry of Households and internal funds. Jin Lian recognized private rights, so the Ministry of Households tore up with His Majesty every day.

The orderly competition between the Ministry of Households and internal funds is also beneficial to the government.

Zhu Qiyu had read Li Xian's Fourteen Questions Memorial in advance, which was Li Xian's greatest achievement in the imperial court.

Since he asked Li Xian to speak, Zhu Qiyu naturally had an answer ready.

"As the imperial court, we are in charge of public affairs, so we naturally have to recognize private rights, otherwise, wouldn't we be revitalizing the well field system?" Zhu Qiyu first answered Li Xian's question face-to-face.

Under Fang Xiaoru's strong urging, Zhu Yunwen even wanted to start the well field system, which not only offended the martial arts and military meritorious service, but also offended the powerful and powerful, the gentry, and the wealthy businessmen.

Jiangnan itself should be the base of the powerful and powerful family. Zhu Yunqi has offended his own base. How can he succeed in the fight for Taoism?

Zhu Qiyu changed the subject and said very solemnly: "But I don't admit it: private rights are sacred and inviolable!"

"Public power is sacred and inviolable!"

Yu Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his head with a smile and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Being a courtier under His Majesty does not require any effort.

There is an expert behind your majesty, this is what Yu Qian has always known, but has the expert behind your majesty followed him south?

Yu Qian did not intend to trace the source of this issue. His Majesty is right, he has nothing to advise.

Yu Qian only intends to do what a courtier should do.

Courtiers have six righteous and six evil.

Flattery speaks of evil, detracts from the master's injustice, and cliques compare with each other, so as to deceive the master's understanding.

When entering, it is easy to argue with words, and when going out, it is even more different in speech, so that white and black are indistinguishable, right and wrong are indistinguishable, waiting for others can be deduced, and because of this, the master spreads evil in the territory and hears it in the neighbours.

Those who are like this are also the ministers of the subjugated country.

If the country is in confusion, acts immorally, dares to offend the lord's face, speaks out of the lord's faults, does not resign himself to punishment, dies and the country is safe, and does not regret what he has done, such a direct minister will be.

Yu Qian only intends to be a loyal minister, not a subjugated minister.

The discussion of private rights and public rights can be traced back to Yu Qian's sentence after the battle of the capital, everyone is private, and your Majesty is a public ear.

This kind of debate has been from the first time Yu Qian said so, to the dispute with the people when opening the sea, and now after the suppression of the rebellion, the resistance in the face of Nanya is a kind of struggle between private rights and public rights , and this rivalry will continue to exist, forever.

Li Xian is no exception if he has this idea.

In fact, private property is the origin of the phrase sacrosanct.

In the 13th century, feudal lords, priests, knights and city citizens forced King John to sign the Magna Carta as a foundation.

Freedom and democracy serve the so-called sacred and inviolable private property.

The confirmation of private property rights in the Eastern world should be established in the abandoned well fields of Shang Yang's reform, and the existence of private rights should be formally confirmed.

However, the so-called private rights are sacred and inviolable, whether in the Eastern world or the Western world, they are just empty words, and their symbolic significance is greater than their practical significance.

Because this is fundamentally impossible.

After the signing of the Magna Carta, King John tore up the nobles immediately after they withdrew their troops, and began to attack each other.

Then the content of the Magna Carta was reduced from 63 to 37.

Zhu Qiyu said very seriously: "The division of labor is the beginning of financial affairs. No one can do everything."

"If we observe from a very high angle, we will find that the division of labor is everywhere in this universe, and people engaged in various jobs constitute the torrent of the universe."

Zhu Qiyu's universe is naturally not the universe of later generations, but refers to the past and present, all over the world.

Zhu Qiyu is the emperor, Yu Qian is the leader of the world's ministers and workers, and Li Xian is the mainstay of the imperial court that did not collapse suddenly, and the lack of discipline caused the chaos in Nanya.

They are all standing high enough to discuss this issue naturally.

The improvement of productivity begins with the division of labor.

Because of the division of labor, all people show more proficiency, skill and judgment, which is the source of increased productivity.

People record their skills, and then go to train more people who have this skill.

Zhu Qiyu went on to say: "From the age of ignorance, when men farmed and women weaved, to our life today, it is impossible to do without other people's labor."

"For example, in the clothing stores all over Nanjing, a piece of silk clothing or linen, cotton, or cotton-padded clothes is inseparable from farmers' farming and harvesting, dyers, carders, spinners, weavers, and tailors, and finally becomes a piece of clothing. clothing."

Zhu Qiyu had seen Empress Wang playing cotton. To be precise, Empress Wang led four people from the harem to thresh the cotton on a gin. The cotton became soft and then spun from cotton to cotton thread.

The mother's tribute to the world also shows the foundation of the Ming Dynasty's emphasis on agriculture and mulberry.

The division of labor can make people become skilled workers, and the same labor time can get more labor results.

The division of labor can greatly reduce the cost of labor learning and become a skilled trade faster.

Division of labor can allow workers more time to think, to improve labor machinery, simplify and save labor time.

For example, the rolling car that Queen Wang and the four palace men were playing with, the roller-type flower-tying machine has improved production efficiency.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Xian still with a somewhat ignorant expression, and then looked at Yu Qianruo's enlightened appearance.

"It is precisely because of the division of labor that each person works differently and has different labor results. When we need to exchange our own labor results for others' labor results, exchange occurs, and finally a market is born."

"Commodities will not appear in the market by themselves, and buyers and sellers will gather to conduct transactions, that is, exchanging commodities for currency, or exchanging currency for commodities."

"To ensure that the transaction can be completed, the buyer and the seller must have the exclusive right to dispose and possess the commodities and currencies in their hands."

"So the imperial court must recognize private rights, because this is the basic principle of social operation."

Zhu Qiyu looked at the way Li Xian and Yu Qian nodded, and it seemed that he didn't need Hu Shangshu to translate his explanation this time.

He suddenly asked with a smile: "Yu Shaobao, Li Aiqing, do you think Ming can do without the imperial court?"

Li Xian's face became painful, and he said helplessly: "Your Majesty, it must not be possible."

Li Xian was so touched!

What does it look like to meet a court that is corrupt, does not know the rules, and does not know how to fight, power, seal, and righteousness? It must not only maintain the existence of the country's system, but also prevent it from blowing up. Let Li Xian be with him Blow up and turn Nanya into a purgatory on earth.

This is so hard.

Yu Qian thought for a moment, and said seriously: "If there is no imperial court, it is just a piece of loose sand, and the Oirats and Jiannu can drive straight in, rob us of food, rape our wives and children, and take away our wealth. His sons and grandchildren must be tattooed as slaves, and they will perish forever."

"It's not like this hasn't happened before."

Yanyun sixteen prefectures have fallen into the hands of their opponents for more than 580 years, the north has been fallen for more than [-] years, and the land of Shenzhou has been fallen for more than [-] years. The tragedy of tattooing as slaves and eternal sinking is just around the corner.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "So public power must exist, and it must be strong to ensure that individual private rights can be exercised freely."

"That's why I say that private rights are recognized, but public rights are sacred and inviolable."

"The imperial court has enacted so many laws and imposed so many restrictions on officials and common people. Isn't that also an infringement of private rights?"

"But the imperial court collects taxes and maintains the operation of the court's mill, isn't it to ensure the power of the public?"

"If the public power is not strong enough, how can we guarantee our personal private rights and be able to act freely?"

Zhu Qiyu suddenly thought of the Dutch East India Company. The Dutch capitalists bought a large amount of British national debt. In the end, the Dutch sea coachman was defeated, and the Netherlands could no longer violently protect its private property.

The shit stirrer Britain immediately looked innocently at the Dutch capitalist: Have we ever issued national debt?It's the national debt.

Yu Qian didn't talk to him. His Majesty likes to make money very much. The lamps in Tai'an Palace only have one wick. That's not a joke.

That's because His Majesty wants to occupy the legal right to use force and violence.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the village outside the window and did not speak for a long time.

Outside the car window is an emblem-style building. The white walls are covered with black tiles, with sharp edges and corners, and the order is clear. It is slightly smudged like an ink painting, but it is a bit fresh and elegant.

It was very cold, the ground was as ice as a mirror, and there were dead trees on both sides of the road, howling in the winter wind.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the vast Yangtze River far away, the water surface was freezing, and the cold wave was sweeping across the entire south of the Yangtze River at an extremely fast speed.

Under the great cold wave, if the imperial court is lost, it will really be the smell of rich wine and meat, and the road will be frozen to death.

Zhu Qiyu sighed and said: "Actually, Wang Wen should be transferred here. He is best at giving relief, but I didn't expect that there would be a cold wave, and it was too late."

Yu Qian bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty's stay in Nanjing is better than thousands of Wang Wen."

A courtier has the power of a courtier, and the emperor has the power of the emperor. Just like in the battle to defend the capital, Zhu Qiyu could not even go from Jushou to Jianguo. He had to go from Jianguo to His Majesty to truly defend Beijing.

Yu Qian is a courtier, without His Majesty, what he can do is actually limited. It is because of His Majesty's trust that the defense of the capital was able to win.

Even if Wang Wen came to Nanjing, he still had too many constraints, unable to arrange, unable to dispatch, and unable to secure the land and protect the people.

"Your Majesty, what Nanjing Liudu needs is not Wang Wen, but Your Majesty." Yu Qian said further.

Zhu Qiyu understood what Yu Qian was talking about, he closed the car window, rubbed his hands and said, "I just thought that Wang Wen is good at giving relief."

"Talk back to our topic just now." Zhu Qiyu suddenly thought of the fact that Li Binyan merged the Weisuo Confucian School according to the usual practice, and was beaten by Zhu Qiyu.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Public power can guarantee the free exercise of private power, so public power must also exist."

"The maintenance cost of collective and public goods, such as official roads, post roads, Shibosi, wharfs, Confucian schools, Huimin pharmaceutical bureaus, and the army is extremely high, and it is a problem that the country must deal with. Therefore, we There has to be a tax."

"When the market fails, we have to invest a lot of firewood, rice, oil and salt to stabilize prices and people's livelihood. Doesn't it cost money?"

"Besides, I don't collect much tax, six cents for merchant ships, [-] percent for merchant ships, and four cents for silver."

"It's just that everyone has to pay taxes and taxes, just like killing their own parents!"

"It's really disgusting."

"King Xiang understood this very well, and he immediately handed in the fish scale book."

Zhu Qiyu's tax rate is only 10%. If he accepts gold flower silver or uses silver dollars, he can be exempted from 4% tax.

Just like this, there are still people who support the rebels and want to fight taxes with arms!

That's it, Zhu Qiyu won't let Ningbo City Boss be superior, they will let His Majesty know how to do it!
Good words can't persuade you to find a dead ghost.

Li Xian bowed his head with flickering eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I am overbearing."

"Just ask, I have never condemned you for my words." Zhu Qiyu nodded and let Li Xian say whatever he wanted.

Wang Fu was dismissed because he stood above the court and spoke for his own self-interest.

This is a minister who is one of the six evil ministers.

An official is greedy for money; works in a private family; does not do official business; cherishes his wisdom and hides his ability, the master is hungry for discussions and thirsty for strategies, and still refuses to be honest; he is tolerant of the ups and downs of the world, and waits and sees; such a person is also a minister .

At first, Zhu Qiyu only dismissed Wang Fu, but did not behead Wang Fu, firstly because Wang Fu had the merit of following the dragon, and secondly because Wang Fu contradicted him.

Wang Fu really thought that way, and thought it was right, and dared to say that he could be saved. When he really went from the court to the local government and went deep into the affairs of the people, he immediately repented.

Your Majesty is always right.

Wang Fu is a minister, but only a little bit.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head helplessly, this damn guy!Run to Helin and "make contributions" to the Wala people!

"Your Majesty believes that the method of banknotes is safer than the method of money, and it is beneficial to the safety of the country." Li Xian bowed his head and said, expressing a very bold point of view.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Xian and said with a frown: "The reason."

Li Xian took out a few large coins from his sleeve and said: "The Emperor Song Yuanbao, this is a copper coin minted in the former Song Dynasty. Today, it is still the main copper coin used by the people."

"It has been 200 years so far, and it was cast from the first year of Baoyou to the eighth year of Baoyou."

"As I said before, coins made in the former Song Dynasty are still circulating in the market, so they should be replaced with Jingtai Tongbao."

"Changing dynasties and dynasties seem to be unable to change Qian Fa's private rights, Your Majesty."

"The Zhizheng Baochao was invalidated immediately after Yuan Ting fled to the north, but this method of money has been used from the Song Dynasty to the present."

"I think the banknote method is safer than the money method."

"I don't know if this idea is correct."

Zhu Qiyu took the few copper coins from Xing'an, handed them to Xing'an and said: "Li Aiqing is right, the banknote method, in a sense, is indeed safer than the money method."

The banknote law is a means of guarantee to integrate the common people, the gentry, the powerful and powerful, and the relatives of the ministers into all the interests and goals of the country.

The imperial court itself sank, and paper money sank with it.

In a sense, the banknote law is indeed safer than the money law.

Nan Ya, what are you fighting for?
The means of striving for the Advisory Council to participate in the administration of state affairs, strive for preferential sea taxes, and reduce the customs clearance is to compete for the monopoly of currency management.

The currencies in Zhu Qiyu's hands are imperial silver coins and Jingtai Tongbao, while the hands of Shiyao Haoyou's family are gold flowers and silver, as well as countless privately minted coins and coins left over from previous dynasties.

Zhu Qiyu wants to mint Jingtai Tongbao and imperial silver coins on a large scale, and he is also fighting for the monopoly of currency management.

"But the way I practice money is not the way of banknotes, and it will not change in a short time." Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said.

Safety is all about safety, but... what about the common people?

The banknote law is not safe for the common people.

The imperial court printed and distributed a large number of banknotes with large denominations, always counted one or two as a plan, forced powerful families to usurp power, private invitations of princes, etc., all of which were harmful to the people but not beneficial.

No matter how good the banknote method is, it is not suitable for the current Daming, and Zhu Qiyu doesn't use it either.

"Is this your third question? The contradiction between private and public rights?" Zhu Qiyu continued to ask.

It is about a hundred miles from Nanjing to Ma'anshan, and the journey takes a lot of time.

Li Xian bowed his head and said: "This is the third question of the minister, and the fourth question of the minister. Since the court recognizes and protects private rights."

"Does that mean that dishonorable practices such as robbery, theft, fraud, embezzlement, green rice money, plunder, violence, coercion, monopoly, manipulation, hoarding, price manipulation, and drumming to pass flowers are allowed to continue to obtain social labor creations? wealth?"

Daming's extensive social labor has created the most wealth in the world, but some people are stealing Daming's wealth like thieves!
Zhu Qiyu said as a matter of course: "Of course not allowed!"

"Otherwise, why would I personally oversee the case of Meixiang Tower? This matter is as important as the fact that I repeatedly captured the Dragon Banner of King Jirui outside Desheng Gate!"

　Thanks to "Linglong" for the reward of 1000 points, thanks to "I who have high eyes and low hands" and "He who is silent" for the reward of 500 points, and thanks to "Mengxin will call 666", "Six Fingers!~~~", "Bouncing in the minefield" ", "nxjdn" 100 point reward, thank you for your support, thank you very much.
