Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 266

At that time, the roosters in the imperial dining room began to crow one after another. Zhu Biao turned his head and looked at the dark east. Both Zhu Di and Sanbao were in high spirits.

On the contrary, Chang Meirong supported her belly, her face was pale, her body was a little crooked, and she smiled weakly at Zhu Biao: "Your Highness, don't worry, my concubine is fine."

Zhu Biao glanced at Jinshendian irritably, he couldn't let them suffer the cold with him.

Lao Zhu's wanton printing of precious banknotes is really a helpless act of lack of copper and money, but it has decreased since last year, and it is more than enough to reward the army in Yunnan and crusade against the army in Sichuan.

360 days a year, he gets up early and stays late to review memorials, at least 360 days a week.

Empress Ma held up the duster, and she was only trying to scare Lao Zhu. Lao Zhu lost his temper. His own son and daughter-in-law knelt down all night, and his heart ached for a long time, and he wanted to find a way to get off.

Glancing at Empress Ma who was sitting by the side, Old Zhu scratched his chin, pretending to be disdainful, picked up what Zhu Biao had put on the ground, picked it up and coughed twice: "Leave it first, we'll see it when we have time." Look."

"Would you like to watch it or not?" Queen Ma was about to get up.

Yu Yi ran in, tripped over the threshold and fell, got up and said, "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess has fainted."

"What, call the imperial doctor quickly." Old Zhu stomped his feet anxiously, clapped his hands on his hips and shouted, "Our eldest grandson!"

"If they have something to do, I will never end with you." Empress Ma walked away holding her dress.

Standing at the door, Old Zhu said, "Go and have a look, and see what the imperial doctor has to say."

"Your Majesty, I will go now, Your Majesty."

After two sticks of incense, Yu Yi stood in the Jinshen Hall panting, and knelt down on one leg: "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is fine, she just caught the cold."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he nodded and said, "It's good that it's nothing, pass Mao Xiang to us."

Mao Xiang appeared at the gate of the hall and said to Old Zhu, "Your Majesty."

Old Zhu hooked his fingers and said: "Go to Nanzhili to inquire, see if our... treasure banknotes are rejected by the people, and then go to check if there are still artificial counterfeit banknotes... Go to more people, we To know the truth."

Mao Xiang took the order and immediately led people into the city in disguise.

Old Zhu turned over what Zhu Biao had written, and began to read carefully. This kid was trying to embarrass himself and make him admit his mistake.

He thought that he would never even be able to commit a crime against himself, he is so wise, but now...

The imperial court sponsored the issuance of the treasure banknotes, and the banknote issuance system was perfect. The ministers believed that it was correct, but the issuance of treasure banknotes should be based on the situation of the Ming Dynasty, and it was planned to be issued in moderation.

Otherwise, it will only value money and despise banknotes.

Second, the treasure banknotes must be convinced by the people of the Ming Dynasty, and a reasonable issuance reserve system should be negotiated by the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Households.

After the reserve, Zhu Biao explained a long paragraph in layman's terms.With the reserve fund system, the issued banknote currency is the credit currency that can be exchanged, that is, the banknote system, with gold, silver or silk as the banknote.

You can't just use new banknotes as banknotes.In addition, the imperial court set up Tongbao behavior as a special official office to deal with this matter.

Gold and silver are no longer explicitly banned among the people, and can be used as goods for trading.

Zhu Biao believes that theoretically, if the maintenance measures can insist on receiving and not sending out, the purchasing power of treasure notes should rise, but it is really difficult to collect and not send out.

First of all, there is no doubt that the implementation of deflationary measures after the return of precious banknotes will definitely have an impact on the fiscal revenue of the imperial court. Due to the decline in the value of the precious banknotes, the recovery of the precious banknotes will make the court take great risks.

Recycling measures will inevitably be restricted by the imperial court's finances during implementation, so caution is required.

"This kid is not confused, he knows the dangers of recycling treasure notes." Old Zhu continued to look down.

Now that the people in the south of the Yangtze River have recovered, the Salt Bureau and the Weaving Bureau are on the right track, and copper and iron mines have been mined in various places. Although the snowstorm in Kaifeng this year, it will still not affect the spring farming in the north next year.

The salt method of accepting banknotes in the user's mouth should be able to recover a huge amount of precious banknotes.

The minister thought that the surrounding island countries could be developed to support the imperial court.

The casting and issuance of copper coins by the Baoyuan Bureau in the capital and the Baoquan Bureau in various places are very chaotic and inconsistent, and should be restructured immediately.

For example, since the beginning of the Five Dynasties, it has become a general trend to choose deeply rooted silver as the standard currency.

Of the three major currencies of the imperial court, only the precious banknotes are basically under the control of the court, but because there are too many, the ministers soon thought that the precious banknotes would be like waste paper and be discarded by the people.

Although copper coins and silver exist, private casting of copper coins is common practice.Therefore, it should be banned by the imperial court and taken back from the hands of private tyrants and merchants.Prohibition of private casting, controlled by the imperial court, to maintain the quality of copper coins and reduce miscellaneous coins.

If this matter is successfully implemented, it will bring great benefits to the court.

The imperial court could not ignore the casting of copper coins because of the issuance of precious banknotes, so as to stimulate the people's confidence in the use of precious banknotes, and the imperial court set up Tongbao Banks in various places to consolidate them.

According to what I have seen and understood, private usury has become commonplace, and the imperial court is short of money. It is necessary to reorganize the system involving money and crack down on private self-interested profiteering. The imperial court strictly manages this debt.

Using Tongbao Bank to build the trust of the people in the imperial court and operate it in this way cannot make the private debt of the wealthy people prevail.

This usury seems to have the benefit of making up for the court, but if it goes on like this, there must be problems.

The common people are trapped in compound interest and cannot pay off their debts.

Officials borrowed money because of this, aggravating corruption, accepting bribes, abusing official power, hindering the recovery of people's livelihood, and hindering the economy...

The reform of the currency system must be stable and slow, and the father does not have to worry about rewards and relief.

The copper mines in various places do not force the people to do coolies. The mine supervisors in various places pay wages according to the length of work and the mine, so that it will not cause absenteeism and riots.

Liu Zhongcheng and Erchen had already made arrangements for this matter.

In addition, apart from Annan and Goryeo, etc. who are willing to pay tribute to the court, please allow the emperor to allow the sons and ministers to find the right time to send people to open up various places.

My minister wanted to recruit a Dongying monk named Shiyuan from the Fengyang Longxing Temple built in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China. In addition, my minister wanted to personally teach Xia Yuanji. Although he had a miserable life experience, he was recommended by local officials and was very happy Clever... I would like to ask my father to agree with my son.

There are also detailed supervision and rules about Tongbaohang. People can also store their surplus money to obtain fixed profits. It is sponsored by the imperial court and strictly controlled.

Nowadays, Baochao seems to be calm, but the common people are suffering unspeakably.The imperial power must go to the countryside, the straight road must be built, and the information must be obtained quickly.

The sons and ministers are waiting to ask their father and emperor to discuss, and the above are all suggestions obtained from reading ancient books.

Precious banknotes are beneficial, but they only need to be reformed before they can be used to great effect.My son also learned some truths from reading Lao Tzu's book...

In Changle Hall, Zhu Biao sat on the edge of the couch and looked at the sleeping Chang, thinking about what he said to Lao Zhu this time.

Some regular things discovered by Lao Tzu are actually the same as Marxism. Of course, their dialectical thinking is also different, similar with minor differences.But combined with today, it is also beneficial.

In fact, Tongbao Bank borrowed from the banks of later generations to a certain extent, but changed it to combine with the situation of Daming.He pointed out the advantages and disadvantages of the latter issues, and treated them dialectically.

Whether it can be successful depends on Lao Zhu himself.

As long as the system is restructured slowly, it is possible.

After all, he was only proposing methods for the defects of the treasure banknote, and by the way, he attached his own opinions.

If Lao Zhu really disagrees, then he can only wait until the future when he passes on to himself, and then go to reform.

This time, I can no longer let everyone follow me and suffer punishment on my knees.
