I know that the compilation of the "Accounting Record" is not easy, but when Xu Ping put the "Jing Yu Accounting Record" to the imperial court, its complexity is still far beyond the imagination of the courtiers. The www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" is a voluminous article, which is divided into categories, covering almost all aspects of the socio-economic and demographic, and there are detailed data. There is not only a summary of the past, but also a prospect for the future.

Such an "Accounting Record", coupled with the recital of the three divisions of Xu Pingshang on the implementation of the financial budget for the year at the end of the year, suddenly filled up the government at the end of the year. Such a complex content was beyond what could be discussed in a normal court meeting, so the courtiers who were qualified to discuss it had to participate in the form of a concerto, and the high-ranking officials gathered to make a decision.

It has been a long time since the emperor personally participated in the official assembly, and this time Zhao Zhen cheered up and took one or two hours every day to personally preside over it in the Chongzheng Palace. The chief and deputy envoys of the three divisions participated in the whole process, and the special yamen such as the Audit Department and the Bridge and Road Department were present according to the edict, and the subordinates of the Zhongshu Gate, the Privy Council, and the Imperial Historical Observatory participated in the whole process, and as for the other officials, it was the imperial decree.

After a few days of warm-up, today is finally the time for an in-depth discussion. Xu Ping cheered up his spirit, took the three deputy envoys and Zheng Jian, and asked the messenger to hold the thick materials and arrived at the Chongzheng Hall early.

Shi Quanbin, who is on duty here today, because it has already been decided that the officials of the third division can enter the hall in advance, and as soon as he saw Xu Ping bringing people to arrive, he brought people in. With Xiao Huangmen, he was busy helping to arrange various exhibition boards, sorting out and distributing materials, and after being busy for a while, Shi Quanbin couldn't help but smile and said: "Advice, this time of busyness reminds me of the time when I went to Nanhai City to Pearl, and you told me about the affairs of sugar in Yongzhou." At that time, I was thinking, how can any official go to such an effort to sort everything out and tell it all as if you were watching from the sidelines. Unexpectedly, ten years later, the advice was done and still did this. The officials of the DPRK and China have this perseverance, but I am afraid that there is only one person to advise. ”

Xu Ping smiled: "How do you say that? You see that now under the three divisions, which one is not doing this? It's not that no one wants to do this before, it's just that there is no such rule, as long as the rules are set, everyone will naturally do it. ”

Looking at Zhao He, Wang Weizheng and Zhang Cun, who were nervously directing the arrangements of his subordinates, Shi Quanbin had no choice but to believe what Xu Ping said. Wang Weizheng and Zhang Cun are okay, Zhao He is a veteran and important minister, and his official is equivalent to Xu Ping, but his position is lower than Xu Ping, and he is not sloppy in doing things. For several of them, it is a matter of great pride to have the opportunity to participate in the compilation of such an "Accounting Record", which is enough to go down in history.

As soon as it was arranged, before Xu Ping and everyone had time to take a sip of tea, Zhao Zhen entered the palace with a group of ministers.

The ministers behaved like a ceremony, Zhao Zhen gave a seat to the chief executive and the attendant ministers, served the tea soup, and the assembly officially began.

Li Di first asked Xu Ping: "A few days ago, you said that this year's income is enough to pay off the arrears borrowed from the Third Division Bank at the beginning of the year, and there is still a slight surplus. It is said that your three divisions have spent much more money this year than in previous years, and it is not easy to offset the income, and what is even more rare is that the recent Cao Si from all walks of life has written a chapter, saying that there is a lot of envy in the local area this year, and it is required to be handed over to the imperial court as appropriate, why do you refuse? ”

Xu Ping bowed and saluted: "Prime minister, the money spent by the three divisions now is actually from the bank. To tell the truth, when the bank starts to do things, it will actually collect money from the local government to the capital, and then ask the local government to envy the surplus, which is really a redundant move. In addition, in previous years, local prefectures and counties had been overstretched because of money and grain in Beijing, and they owed a lot of debts. This year, the money and food are more relaxed, so they will be allowed to spend it on the local area, which should build roads and roads, and build bridges and bridges. And after having a bank, in principle, it is not allowed to save money in the local area, and it is better to let them spend it all in the next year. As long as the money is spent on the people, it is a good thing. ”

Chen Yaozuo couldn't help frowning: "Natural disasters are unpredictable, if there is no money and food accumulated in the place, what if there is a disaster of early flooding?" The imperial court allocates it, but most of the time it is too late. You need to know that human life is at stake, and there is no room for delay at that time! ”

"Back to Xianggong, grain is to be saved. There is no way to do this, and when you have food in your hands, you don't panic in your heart. What they are not allowed to accumulate is money, and now most of it is paper money, and only when it is spent is real money, it is useless for the government to save it in their hands. In case of floods and droughts, the bank can allocate the payment, and in case of emergency, you can temporarily borrow from the local bank, and the interest will be waived afterwards. ”

The imperial court is in charge of printing money, and for paper money, the more money is spent after printing, the better, not only can it not be stored in the hand, but the more times it is turned around in the economic system, the better. The total amount of transactions has gone up, indicating that the economy is becoming more active, and the taxes received by the three divisions have also risen, which is real money. However, it is still difficult for officials outside the three divisions to accept this concept, and it will take time for them to get used to it. Moreover, in the hearts of many officials, they always feel that the money printed on paper is not stable, and once the people do not recognize it, it will become waste paper, so the policy has always tended to be conservative. However, I don't know that when it comes to such a large group of people as the whole country, confidence analysis and the like must not use the method of guessing people's minds in a flash, how to think, whether it is the establishment or collapse of confidence, it needs objective facts and policies as a basis, and this is exactly the scientific concept that current officials lack.

The money is supervised and printed, and the banks and the government make the money enter the field of economic circulation, and the government-run commercial institutions with the three divisions as the backbone reuse the goods produced to recycle the money, completing a general economic cycle. What will affect the credit of the currency is the ability of the three companies to use the goods to recover the banknotes, and as long as the three companies are healthy, the banknotes will not depreciate. On the other hand, once paper money cannot buy cheap and high-quality goods from Sansi Shop, even if the government says that it is extravagant, it cannot guarantee the credit of paper money.

Originally, there were no three shops, and the government's way to ensure the credit of paper money was to recycle it by means of taxation and other means. However, Xu Ping's policy in the Third Division has always been to spend money as much as possible, and the money collected is collected from the industry and commerce in the cities, while for the two taxes in the countryside, the taxes are collected in kind as much as possible, and even special funds are allocated to purchase grain and other goods with paper money. The means of recovering the currency by taxation will be greatly discounted.

The rural commodity economy is underdeveloped, and once taxes are monetized under such circumstances, the burden on the peasants, especially those at the bottom, will be greatly increased, and social instability will be caused. The social unrest caused by the New Deal was something that Xu Ping tried to avoid.

This is the advantage of the first mover, if there is now a mature commodity economy in the world, the international market has a framework, the late mover will not be so calm. In order to develop industry and gain a comparative advantage over existing commodities in the international market, it is necessary to draw profits from agriculture to subsidize industry. Now that there are no competitors in the world, there is no need to take those extreme measures, and it is feasible to loosen the restrictions on agriculture while developing industry and commerce. And as a first mover, it started with light industry, which is the easiest to make money, and the development of heavy industry uses the accumulation of light industry.

An important goal of compiling the "Accounting Records" is to express these economic laws. Everyone is a smart person, and as long as we let go of our inherent impressions, we will naturally be able to recognize the essence of these economic activities and sum up the laws.

Several prime ministers have actually discovered these clues from the "Accounting Records", and now they want to find answers to the doubts in their hearts through this meeting, and truly rise from perceptual understanding to rational understanding. So if others have any questions, they ask, and Xu Ping patiently answers them one by one. Those who have participated in this meeting will have a new understanding of the current economic operation and will take the initiative to become participants and promoters of the new deal in the future. This is what Xu Ping wants to do, and it must be done.
