"Governor Ma," Zhu Cihong considered his words, "this battle of Sichuan...... Do you want to fight? Can you win? ”

When Ma Shiying heard this question, she was moved for a while-she met Renjun! If you put it aside, how can you stay in Jinyiwei Prison for such a big crime, where can you answer this kind of question?

"Your Majesty," Ma Shiying paused, "the minister thinks that the battle of Sichuan still has to be fought, but it will be difficult to win, unless the imperial court is determined to solve Sichuan first, and then go north to the Central Plains." ”

Ma Shiying is not stupid, of course he sees that Zhu Cihong is going to "first the Central Plains, then Sichuan".

Actually, it has to be like this!

Because the Liukou who entered Sichuan were easy to block, the Ming army was currently making smooth progress in the east of Sichuan, and had already taken the city of Guizhou, completely blocking the passage of the Dashun army in central Sichuan along the river.

And in Shaanxi, Wu Sangui controlled Dasanguan and Qishan. It is not easy for the Dashun army to fight back to Shaanxi, Zhuge Liang has not succeeded in history, not to mention Li Guo and Sun Kewang?

Besides, Sichuan is such a comfortable and comfortable place, who will go to Shaanxi from there? Those gangsters like Shaanxi so much, what are they trying to do for so many years of life and death? Honestly, can't you starve to death in Shaanxi?

Therefore, the road from Sichuan to the east and to the north is firmly blocked, and the only thing that cannot be blocked is the route from Sichuan to the south to Yunnan-Guizhou.

However, even if Yungui's piece is taken by Dashun, it is nothing, and it will not shake Zhu Cihong's Nanming regime at all.

As long as Zhu Cihong's Northern Expedition is successful, what can Sichuan and Yunnan and Guizhou do? No matter how much you plan to teach the field, you can still withstand the attack of the whole of China?

Moreover, if Zhu Cihong is now in the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, he does not have to worry that Li Guo, who is bored in Sichuan and lives a good life, and his "Eight Fathers of Politics" will go out of the Sichuan River and Qishan to find trouble - they can't get out, and they don't have the motivation to come out. Sichuan is so good, just be bored in it and exploit it, come out to find a fight?

But Zhu Cihong wants to attack Sichuan with all his might, and even if Dolgon is too sick to get up, he will crawl over to fight Shandong, Huaibei, and Huainan - if he is afraid that he will not be able to beat it, it is good to grab a handful and go back!

In addition, Zhu Cihong is now ready to spend money to remediate the Huai River and the Yellow River (downstream), can you be careful of such a big project? If Dorgon is destroyed, how much will he lose?

If the Yellow River and the Huai River flood again, the good situation will be completely destroyed......

Just rushing to this, Sichuan is unlikely to become the focus of the Ming Dynasty's military use for a long time in the future.

"Sichuan is indeed difficult to fight......" Zhu Cihong nodded lightly, "but you can't stop fighting!" I can't let the Liukou be too comfortable, and Yunnan is not stable, if you don't start fighting in Sichuan, I'm afraid that the Liukou will free up your hands to harm Yunnan! ”

What Zhu Cihong said was high-sounding, but in fact, it was for the sake of feudal debts....... If you don't hit Sichuan, how can the second phase of bonds be issued?

And...... Zhu Cihong is such a big emperor, how can he use a fake project to get investors' money?

Even if there is no CSRC to supervise him now, he can't do this!

"Governor Ma," Zhu Cihong added, "I plan to follow the example of Pingxi and Shuo, and set up the Western Sichuan Jiedu Envoy and the Eastern Sichuan Jiedu Envoy. The former governs Sichuan Xingdu Division, Mahu Mansion, Wumeng Mansion, Zhenxiong Mansion, Dongchuan Mansion, and Wusa Mansion; The latter governs Zunyi Mansion, Chongqing Wei (that is, Shizhu, Youyang, Pingcha and several other Tusi) and Sinan Mansion and Shiqian Mansion in Guizhou.

Qin Yiming was appointed as the envoy of the eastern Sichuan festival, and as for the envoy of the western Sichuan festival...... Is it appropriate for Zeng Ying to take on this position? ”

"Although Zeng Ying is young, he is handsome and talented, and he can indeed take on a big responsibility." Ma Shiying frowned and said, "However, the mountains in the two towns of western Sichuan and eastern Sichuan overlap and the flat land is narrow, which is not enough to raise tens of thousands of loyal and brave soldiers, and continue to support the imperial court to pay the army......

"The imperial court gives 50,000 taels of silver to each of the two towns every month," Zhu Cihong did not refuse Ma Shiying's request, "As for the equipment...... It's better to send it directly to the Yamen of the Governor of Sichuan and Guizhou! Governor Ma, you are still the governor, but you are not the governor of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, but the governor of Sichuan and Guizhou, responsible for attacking the Liukou in Sichuan from the southern front. In addition, you will also serve as the governor of Guizhou, a province in Guizhou, and you will also be paid 50,000 taels a month, and the governor yamen will be allowed to levy taxes on commercial goods on his own to raise military expenses. ”

Zhu Cihong didn't let western Sichuan, eastern Sichuan, and Guizhou issue bonds for financing this time, or directly let the imperial court issue subsidies, and the two towns and one province gave a total of 150,000 taels of silver per month, which is 1.8 million taels a year, and no matter how much they don't give, they can't afford it!

At present, Emperor Zhu's imperial court has to give a total of 500,000 taels of financial subsidies to the two towns of Wu Sangui and Zhu Cijiong a year, and the big pits in Shandong and Liaodong have to be filled in a few million taels, and now they will give 1.8 million taels to western Sichuan, eastern Sichuan, and Guizhou...... These alone add up to almost 10 million taels!

It is not an exaggeration to say that it burns money!

Because the burning was so fierce, even Chen Rui, the head of the household department, was released to Zhejiang.

Now the big pit of the household department is temporarily held by Su Guansheng, but he is not the ideal candidate for Zhu Cihong to fill the big pit in the household department.

Looking at Daming, there are only two characters who can fill the hole of the household department, that is, Shen Tingyang and Zheng Zhilong!

But both of them are foxes, and they won't jump into the pit easily, so now it's up to who will be caught in the big set of feudal debts, right?

If you trap it, you have to obediently come to make money for Emperor Zhu to atone for your sins......

......

Someone is trapped!

After the completion of the issuance of the second phase of the feudal bonds, which raised up to 5 million taels, and the announcement of the establishment of the Yamen of the Governor of Sichuan and Guizhou by the Ming Dynasty and the favorable release of the envoys of the western Sichuan and eastern Sichuan Jiedu, the prices of the originally high-spirited feudal bonds began to decline all the way......

"Fell, fell, why did it fall again......"

"It's falling, it's down to 60 taels...... This, what can I do? ”

"It doesn't matter, it's going to go up, it's going to go up...... The imperial court is about to send troops to fight Sichuan! If Sichuan is defeated, it will be able to withdraw the feudal domain! ”

"But the imperial court has never said that if you conquer Sichuan, you will withdraw the feudal domain!"

"And Sichuan is not easy to fight, right? Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the sky! ”

"Oh no, no...... It's below 60 taels! ”

"It's over, it's over......"

"Someone jumped off the building!"

It's still a tea house on Mishi Street, or it's related to feudal debts, but it's just changed from a comedy to a tragedy!

The feudal debt fell miserably, and in less than half a month, it fell from about 80 taels all the way to less than 60 taels. fell by a quarter...... It doesn't seem like much, but I can't stand someone adding leverage!

Because the face value of the debt bill is 100 taels, this threshold is enough to keep the small people of Shengdou out, so the participants are all businessmen and down-and-out gentry in the Huguang area.

The so-called down-and-out gentry are those unlucky people who lost their land in Hubei and were forced to ransom the rice. In the past two years, Wuhan has developed very rapidly, and it has become a rice and grain trading center. Therefore, these down-and-out gentry who took ransom rice also invested heavily in commercial activities. He didn't do any business, and mostly made money by lending usury and speculating on white rice. Some of them have done a good job and opened money banks, learned from the two major banks, and started the business of absorbing savings and lending.

These people who play with money, seeing that the feudal debt market is hot, many of them are deceived in...... And then it's trapped!

It's okay to take over the market at a high level with his own capital - Zhu Cihong is still relatively conscientious and doesn't plan to let the two feudal clans fall into debt, so the debts of the two feudal clans must be worth forty or fifty taels. If you buy more than 80 taels, you will lose half of it......

But if you increase leverage, you will really go bankrupt!

Yao Daqiao is leveraged! He ate 74.5 taels and bought 510,000 taels of two feudal debts, and this one has now lost 77,000 taels...... It's still bearable.

However, he was dizzy when the two feudal bonds fell below 70 taels, and actually used the "three-month negotiable feudal debt deposit certificate" in hand to mortgage 290,000 taels to the Haishang Bank, and then went to increase his position and bought 400,000 taels of two feudal bonds (also futures)...... This one has lost more than 40,000 taels so far, and the two sums together have lost almost 120,000 taels.

He's not reconciled! After thinking about it, I always feel that the feudal debt has fallen to the end, so I want to continue to increase my position and buy it......
