Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 135 Then catch him!
Satirizing government affairs and commenting on officials seems to be what most scholars do. They demand integrity, revitalize officialdom, open up the air of speech, eradicate the accumulated abuses of the government and the public, and oppose the corruption and perversion of the law by the powerful. This vision is beautiful, but it cannot be hidden. A small group of people with ulterior motives are behind the scenes, adding fuel to the flames and taking the opportunity to manipulate public opinion in order to achieve ulterior political goals.

The battle for the leadership of public opinion is essentially a battle in the ideological field. Too many things are ruined by hearsay and what others say. There are bad people among the masses, and the bad people are really bad and really dark!

"It seems that the 800% silver shares of Huahui Bank are priced at [-] million taels, which is a bit short after all."

In Dongnuan Pavilion, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "This group of merchants who passed the inspection by factory guards have richer families than I expected. Uncle Guo, have you checked all the money?"

"Your Majesty... they have all been inspected and they are all pure silver."

Wang Sheng hurriedly bowed to report, but then thinking of what the Emperor had just said, Wang Sheng hesitated for a moment and continued: "If your Majesty feels that the price is too low, I can find those people again and ask them..."

"Uncle Guo, do you know the foundation of Huahui Bank?"

Zhu Youxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, put down the memorial he was holding, looked at Wang Sheng and asked.

"I...are stupid."

Wang Sheng felt nervous and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, please give me a clear explanation."

“Credibility!!”

Zhu Youxiao stretched out his hand and said: "If you want Huahui Bank to connect the world, you must have a clear credibility. This is the bottom line. One is one, two is two. Since the rules have been established, even I cannot break them, otherwise Who would believe the Huahui Bank? Who would come to the Huahui Bank with real money?
Losing credibility means losing everything.

This is why Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes are now just like waste paper and are not accepted by the people.

Emperor Taizu Gao had the foresight to create the system of treasure banknotes in order to relieve financial pressure and speed up circulation among the people. However, problems such as over-issuance and excessive issuance of treasure banknotes, the use of treasure banknotes to reduce private wealth, and failure to replace damaged treasure banknotes have led to problems such as The depreciation of banknotes is serious, and these are lessons learned from the past.

I asked my uncle to take charge of the Huahui Bank and did not let foreign officials take specific responsibility, in order to avoid the above problems to the greatest extent.

Therefore, uncle Guo must keep one thing in mind, no one can destroy the credibility of Huahui Bank. Anyone who dares to destroy it will suffer the same fate: death! "

"I will bear this in mind, your Majesty, please rest assured."

Wang Sheng immediately knelt down on the ground and bowed down.

As long as the Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes were not in name only, and the corruption among officials in the Ming Dynasty was serious, Zhu Youxiao would definitely not let private capital participate in this hugely profitable industry.

Capital can eat people!
In the field of finance, Ming Dynasty is still in the stage of ignorance and exploration. If it wants to standardize the rules and framework of the financial field and gain absolute dominance, it needs a group of pioneers to explore and clarify the corresponding rules and leadership. Huahui Bank will eventually To become the sole owner of the state.

But all this requires a process.

Maybe in five years, maybe in ten years, if the whole world accepts this product first, then the follow-up reforms can be effectively promoted. Otherwise, it will be a castle in the air that will collapse when the wind blows.

"Uncle Guo must keep a tight grip on Huahui Bank's internal supervision, talent training, bill iteration and other matters."

Zhu Youxiao continued: "As for the banking business, it can be left to them separately. No system in this world is perfect. We must learn to grasp the big and let go of the small, and distinguish the priorities. If the uncle can do this, If you do it well for me, it will be inevitable that you will be awarded a title in the future."

"The minister leads the order."

Wang Sheng bowed again.

"In addition, there is a problem with the outcome of your discussion regarding the opening of a Huahui Bank account."

Zhu Youxiao thought for a while, frowned and said to Wang Sheng: "This is too big a step. Don't think about setting up branches in various cities in Beizhili from the beginning to build up the reputation of Huahui Bank. We will focus on the capital and the canal along the border of Beizhili. Sub-colons should be opened in all areas inside and outside the capital. Sub-colons should be opened in Tongzhou and Tianjin. Let me establish my foothold first and then talk about other things."

These guys are testing me.

When Wang Sheng heard this, he immediately became alert.At the same time, I was secretly glad that when we first discussed this matter, I did not express my position clearly, otherwise, some of them would have chosen to quit Huahui Bank.

Still need to find some help.

Seeing Wang Sheng's reaction, Zhu Youxiao sighed secretly.

Although the group of people who pass the screening usually do good deeds, this does not mean that they are idiots. When it comes to their own interests, it is inevitable to test each other.

No matter what, Huahui Bank cannot fall into the so-called internal strife.

In Zhu Youxiao's eyes, just the wealth and business opportunities contained in a capital city are enough for Huahui Bank to gain a firm foothold, use interest to attract private storage, and use storage for reasonable lending. The profit gained is not low.

Once the credibility and reputation of Huahui Bank are established, will the nobles, gentry, wealthy businessmen and other groups in the capital not be moved?
Is the Ming Dynasty really short of money?
lack!
It's just that this phenomenon is limited to the dynasty level and the bottom groups. As for those privileged groups, all of them are extremely rich.

If wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, big problems will occur sooner or later!

Wang Sheng was put in charge of Huahui Bank because Wang Sheng was loyal and obedient enough. However, in the early stages of Huahui Bank's development, if Wang Sheng could not quickly adapt and improve himself, Zhu Youxiao would have to consider replacing him.

Zhu Youxiao would not do such a stupid thing like committing suicide in person. If you want to make everyone respect you, you must maintain a sufficient sense of mystery. This is how people are. For things that have been guessed in their hearts but have not been verified, they are always suspicious. There will be fear, this is a psychological game.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the inner factory."

Wang Tiqian lowered his head and walked into Dongnuan Pavilion, holding a memorial in his hand.

In the factory?

Wang Sheng, who was kneeling on the ground, felt anxious. When did the inner court get another inner factory?However, what Wang Sheng didn't know was that...the equity participation groups of Huahui Bank and Convenient Society were surrounded by insiders. For supervision, it was not enough to rely on internal responsibility alone. It was also necessary for external forces to participate in supervision.

"This person always has a sense of luck and wants to stir up some troubles."

After Zhu Youxiao read the memorial submitted by the inner factory, he smiled and shook his head, "The plot is all on me. Okay, okay, I'm all focused on this. If I don't bother with something, they will feel uncomfortable."

Wang Sheng, Wang Tiqian, and Han Zanzhou all lowered their heads, not daring to breathe. Even though the emperor was smiling, they could all feel that the atmosphere had changed.

"Han Zanzhou."

"The servant is here."

Han Zanzhou immediately fell to his knees on the ground.

"Go to Fengtai Camp and deliver my oral instructions."

Zhu Youxiao's eyes were cold and stern, and he said in an indifferent tone: "As Qin Bangping was ordered to lead the white-pole soldiers to Beijing, I will arrest all those scholars who are arbitrarily discussing government affairs and trying to disrupt public opinion. Don't do what you should do, and leave it to others." As spearmen, everyone is rushing forward, and the scholars of the Ming Dynasty don’t even know right from wrong.”

"The slaves obey the order."

Han Zanzhou hurriedly lowered his head and responded.

Something big has happened.

Wang Sheng was shocked. It was definitely not a small matter for the emperor to send white soldiers to the capital. But what kind of thing could make the emperor so angry?Arresting scholars will only cause unnecessary trouble, and the civil servants in the DPRK will definitely not watch indifferently.
