Chapter 814: There's a Huge Project Here

In addition to killing people in Yingtian, Liu Chun also sorted out his previous books and further wrote his views on governing the country...... Up to now, no one dares to despise Liu Chun's words and deeds, because he is not only a powerful minister, a favored minister, but also a complete evil star, if he is against him, he will lose his head!

This is not a joke, but a real reality, thousands of headless corpses are placed there, warning everyone who despises Yoo Chun.

So when Yoo Chun's book came out, it set off a craze, at least for officials, everyone needed to buy one. Not only do you have to buy it, but you have to eat it thoroughly.

I don't know what Taifu thinks, but he will die a miserable death!

When people opened Liu Chun's new book, the big guy was suddenly refreshed, and even enlightened...... The name of Taifu is indeed worthy of its name!

At the beginning, Liu Chun made a strong criticism of the idea of inaction that prevailed in Jiangnan.

In the past, newspapers often advocated that the imperial court should not interfere in business affairs, nor should it affect business operations too much...... The business should be left to the businessman.

Their reasons are also very strong, no one will joke with their own money, businessmen want to make money, to be credible, they must make the most long-term interests of thinking and decision...... This decision will obviously be more reasonable and scientific than the design of the imperial court!

Obviously, someone has learned to use Yoo Chun's methods.

However, such an obviously logical error cannot stand up to scrutiny.

Liu Chun pointed out that the competition between businessmen is not all reasonable and legal, on the contrary, there are too many means of competition, which cannot be put on the table and should not be done.

Competition is like this, and wealth is also a complex concept, and it cannot be simply assumed that making more money means increasing wealth.

A simple example is if a group of people go into a casino, and someone ends up winning big and has a pocket full of silver, does that mean that the wealth has increased?

Apparently not, gambling is just a transfer of wealth...... If you insist on saying it, it is a decrease in wealth - a large group of strong laborers, instead of moving bricks and working, but moving mahjong, is not a loss of social wealth.

From this point of view, there is also a difference between wealth transfer and wealth creation in economic activities.

Take what happened in Huai'an, for example...... A group of businessmen learned the news in advance and hoarded land and raised prices in exchange for more compensation for land requisition, making millions.

For them, it's really money.

But what about Da Ming?

Not only did it not increase wealth, but it also caused a loss of wealth and affected normal construction.

When a group pursues the maximization of its own interests, it will inevitably harm other interest groups.

The mission of the imperial court is to coordinate the interests of various interest groups, seek fairness and order, guide the whole society, create more wealth, and distribute wealth reasonably.

Liu Chun also proposed something very important and very realistic...... The competition between merchants was not fair competition, like those early salt merchants.

Once they get the concession and have a "nest" to deal in salt, they will not share it at all, but will treat it as a family heirloom for future generations, forever as a cornucopia.

As for the others, they don't even have the qualifications to enter, so how can they compete?

The imperial court also had a mission, which was to establish the foundation of fair competition...... That is to say, there are some industries that must be in the hands of the imperial court, and without this premise, businessmen who control some advantageous resources can squeeze other opponents and force the other party to comply.

Therefore, without the intervention of the imperial court, what is presented in the market is not competition at all, but the law of the jungle......

"Wang Xing, this is Taifu's recent work, many officials in Jiangnan are studying it, and it has been submitted to Your Majesty, look at the meaning, Your Majesty will also issue an order to publish the world, what do you think of Taifu's wheel?"

Facing Jin Youzi's questioning, Wang Xing's old face turned red, he had been watching it all night, and he could see that his two eyes were bloodshot.

Liu Chun's book is not complicated, and the truth is also very straightforward, but this kind of straightforward thing can often go straight to the core.

Compared with the innocent babbling of the literati, this is closer to the truth.

Thinking about what he said before, relying on a word, Liu Chun repented...... This is simply an excellent irony, people have stood at a height that is difficult for them to reach, thinking about how to govern the country, compared with Mrs. Liu, maybe he is the one who should repent.

"I, maybe I'm wrong...... But, can Mrs. Liu be the same as what is written in his book? And how can it be proved that he is not empty talk? ”

Wang Xing argued loudly, his old face flushed.

Jin Youzi sneered: "Wang Xing, you are not only shallow, but also stubborn...... Originally, I didn't have time to deal with you, but in order to make you die, I will let you see how the imperial court handles these affairs, so that you can open your eyes! ”

Wang Xing followed Lan Yu in his early years, and as a literati in the army, he still had a good set of plans for ordnance and food, and soldiers' salaries.

As for how capable the yamen is, he knows it very well.

Wang Xing firmly believed that letting the yamen deal with these things would only bring about the terrible greed for ink, which was ten thousand times worse than the situation Liu Chun said. With these people adding to the chaos, the entire economy will only get worse, and the merchants and the people will suffer.

If you don't believe it, let's see!

Sure enough, Wang Xing came to Yingtianfu and was able to personally observe the operation of the imperial court.

When he entered the yamen for the first time, the biggest feeling was that there were a lot of people!

Densely packed, full of people...... And these people are not servants, but most of them are petty officials of eight or nine grades. They were busy everywhere, in and out.

The following situation must be submitted, and the order from above must be issued.

Busy like a spinning top, if you look closely, you will find that in the busy, there is a strong order.

The first thing these officials have to do is to figure out what's going on on the ground and really understand what's going on under the rule.

How many hukou and how many people there are, this is the most basic ...... But this is the point, in the past, many yamen were not clear, how can they be expected to govern the place well?

But now it's different, Ding Kou is the most basic common sense, if you can't figure it out, you can just get out...... In addition to Dingkou, it is also necessary to find out how many roads there are in the local area, what is the condition of the roads, how many wells are there, and what is the drinking water situation of the common people...... To know the difference between the rich and the poor, to know how many dilapidated houses there are, to know how much garbage is generated every day, and how to deal with this waste......

When all kinds of data are put together, there is a detailed idea of what is happening in Yingtian.

With these, what to develop, there will be eyebrows.

What Zhu Gaosui mentioned to the businessman will become a reality.

For example, if the traffic situation in a certain place is very poor, and a businessman offers to be willing to build a bridge, and the local yamen agrees and is willing to endorse it, he can get a preferential loan from the imperial court.

If something goes wrong in the middle, everyone from the local yamen to the businessmen will be held accountable.

Moreover, with the construction of these projects, a large amount of raw materials will definitely be required, and at this time, merchants can also obtain support loans from the imperial court according to their own wishes.

After accepting the loan from the imperial court, there will be special personnel who will hand over the loan to the merchant in batches according to the implementation of the project.

In other words, it is still very difficult for someone to cheat a loan.

In addition to facing accountability, there is also the inability to get the full payment...... This also reduces the size of the loss.

Again, in any way, there are inevitable drawbacks.

There are still loopholes in these regulations formulated by Liu Chun, and they are still very crude...... But it does not prevent him from playing a good role, because Liu Chun is really facing these problems and trying to solve them, instead of being a hands-off shopkeeper as some people think, and it is called inaction!

When this set of practices is implemented, the entire face of Yingtian will begin to change rapidly...... The garbage that was originally dense in the city was cleaned out and transported to a special place for burial.

Roads and bridges that had fallen into disrepair were rebuilt.

The dirt floor was replaced with sand and gravel, and the slate bridge deck was replaced with cement...... What especially amazed the common people was that the imperial court added a hundred water intake points in Yingtian in one go. And ninety percent of it is placed in areas where poor people are concentrated.

Starting from the most basic food, clothing, housing and transportation, this is the proposition put forward by Liu Chun after he was promoted to the throne.

Wang Xing not only couldn't find too many drawbacks, but also sadly found that the people were really "forgetful"!

It's only been a few months, and it seems that he has forgotten what Liu Chun has done.

He killed so many wealthy merchants, as well as Shuode Hongru, and many academies were closed down by him...... Jiangnan's Sven vitality was ruined by him.

Wang Xing felt that it would take at least one or two decades before he could gradually forget ...... It is even possible that Liu Chun will become a white-faced traitor, put on the stage, and be remembered by the people forever.

At worst, it will take ten or eight years to dilute the blood.

But who knows, I haven't even used it for eight months, and there are voices praising Taifu everywhere...... Wang Xing suddenly realized a possibility, could the person who was killed really deserve to be killed?

Even if it shouldn't be killed, at least it's useless.

Otherwise, how could you kill so many people and not get bad at all? Instead, thriving?

Will he be a useless person...... If Wang Xing died, it would be the same, and he would soon be forgotten?

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Xing was completely panicked, he became restless, as soon as he was old, he had to do something, at least something good, otherwise he would really live in vain in this life!

He sent a ghost to the gods and ran to look at the various construction projects launched by Yingtian.

Among them, the first place is the project that no one dares to touch.

This project is not complicated, that is, to build a track from Yingtian to Suzhou...... Horse-drawn carriages will be temporarily passed, and if the time permits, they will be upgraded to trains, and in addition, they will be extended in the direction of Songjiang Province to connect the most essential parts of Jiangnan.

Wang Xing silently calculated, hundreds of miles, across five prefectures, connecting millions of people, no wonder no one dared to bear it!
