At that time, it will inevitably create an illusion of abundance, and the reason why it is an illusion is that with the future population growth, it will slowly smooth out the benefits brought by high-yielding crops such as red vetch.

But Liu Zhang just wanted to take advantage of this illusion, it was not unreasonable for capitalism to sprout in the Ming Dynasty, as long as he took advantage of this prosperity, he would inevitably allow commerce to flourish.

But before the vigorous development, Liu Zhang needs a guide, and there must be no commercial aggressive growth, which is definitely not good.

Liu Zhang solemnly said to all the businessmen: "You are all my Han folk elites, and you should make your own contributions to the healthy development of the Han Dynasty, so I hope you will pour more of your funds into the real economy." ”

"The King of Shu is wise...... Just, what is the real economy? Yin Bai asked suspiciously, and Huang Yueying, Qu Xi and the others also looked at Liu Zhang.

"That is, to produce products, not to resell goods." Liu Zhang said: "In the past, when we only had Yizhou, you all made your own products.

Later, Jingzhou was a white land, in order to restore Jingzhou, you began to transport the goods in Shu to Jingzhou for sale, and many merchants gradually began to engage in the reselling industry.

Until now, the imperial court has controlled eight states, and transporting goods from one region to another has gradually become your main business, and the emerging business families in Jingzhou basically make money by transportation and resale, right? ”

Liu Zhang looked at the representative of the Huang family in Jingzhou, and the representative nodded silently.

Liu Zhang smiled: "It's nothing, business, to make up for the deficiency with surplus, it's understandable to resell."

But this is not the way to become a strong country, or it has a certain role. But it's not that significant. Even to a certain extent. It will constrain the development of our economy, because it will not be able to create real value.

I need more real economy, I need you to be more like when there was only one Yizhou before, engaged in the production of Shu brocade, silk, ceramics, paper, etc., and mass production of soaphorn paste for the common people. Kerosene and other household items. ”

"I see, what King Shu means, let's engage in producing products more instead of making the difference, right?" Yin Bai said immediately.

Seeing Liu Zhang's nod, Yin Bai was overjoyed, and immediately patted his chest and promised: "King Shu, don't worry, we will produce more products and less speculation and resale." ”

"Really?" Liu Zhang glanced at Yin Bai and said in a deep voice: "Yin Bai, I know that you are for the reconstruction of the Central Plains region. A large amount of supplies were prepared, but they were never taken out. Are you waiting for a spring famine? ”

Catching up with Liu Zhang's eyes, Yin Bai's pupils suddenly shrank, this is a trade secret, and his peers don't know, how did the King of Shu know? Yin Bai suddenly thought of Wang Lei's supervision organization, didn't he say that it was only for supervision officials?

"You don't care how I know, the merchant's tricks, the court can easily know, and if you change to other kings, in order to be able to collect more taxes from you, you may turn a blind eye, but if you think I will do that, then you can only ask for more blessings."

Yin Bai's heart tightened, and he only felt a cold sweat coming out, "Yes, yes." ”

"You don't have to promise anything now, I'm just waiting for you to sell the goods, if you dare to go above the market floating price, I will let you die an ugly death."

After Liu Zhang finished speaking, he looked at all the businessmen: "Don't think that this king is deliberately looking for fault because he wants to develop the real economy, don't forget, the three major decrees promulgated by this king, in addition to the land order, the four imperial examinations, and the price limit order." ”

"Huh?" All the merchants were shocked and whispered, all the time, the most ferocious was the land order and the four imperial examinations, the two decrees completely pushed the Sichuan army to the opposite side of the world, so that large-scale killing.

However, the original three major decrees, because commerce did not really rise, the price limit order was as inconspicuous as a shadow in the corner, no one paid attention to it, and it was slowly forgotten by people.

However, the merchant did not think of this decree at this time, it was simply a decree tailor-made for merchants, and there were special people to estimate the market price of various necessities of life, set a floating space, and those who exceeded the space violated the price limit order.

Isn't the violation of the price limit order the same as the violation of the land order?

From the time they were in business to the present, the businessmen never realized that they still had such a big knife hanging over their heads.

Huang Yueying also looked at Liu Zhang with a little surprise, the price limit order, before the business started, Liu Zhang promulgated this decree along with the land order and the four imperial examinations, did you anticipate the rise of today's business? Isn't that too far-sighted?

"Zhang Song."

"The minister is here." Zhang Song stood up with a smile, to discuss the economy, how could he be separated from him, the president of the bank, he was called early in the morning, seeing that Zhang Song is a little too plump now, it is completely different from the thin man before, it seems that the treatment of the bank is too good.

"Immediately make a decree that if the price of one or several necessaries of life rises sharply and does not stop until it reaches a certain limit, and at this time there are merchants who hoard and refuse to sell after giving warnings, they shall buy them at the lowest price in the market, or at worst kill their heads and confiscate all the goods."

Yin Bai's face trembled, only to feel that the sweat was wet everywhere, and he wiped his forehead hard with his sleeve, thinking that he would go back and pay close attention to Zhang Song's approval of the highest price, and hurry out.

Yin Baike has no doubt at all that Liu Zhang will drag him to be killed, even if the current Yin family's industry is huge, if it falls, it will seriously affect the tax revenue of the Sichuan army.

"Yes." Zhang Song responded.

Liu Zhang nodded, when the business was not fully emerging, Liu Zhang had to do this, otherwise he would never be able to do it again when the business model was formed.

It's like a price limit order, if it's a modern capitalist, you give him a price limit order? The joke is that people would rather pour excess milk down the drain than sell it at a high price.

There is also the real economy, perhaps the financial industry has been veiled too much, but in fact, financial manipulation is no different from gambling, and it cannot create actual social value at all.

Do you talk about the real economy to those modern financial oligarchs? They can paralyze state institutions in minutes.

This is the kidnapping of the regime by the too large business, Liu Zhang does not dare to guarantee that he can put an end to it, but he must do his best.

Liu Zhang has always known that the development of capitalists to a certain extent is much more harmful than that of the world. However, with the development of the productive forces and the increase of labor surplus, commerce will inevitably rise, and capitalists will inevitably replace the traditional landlords, and no one can change this.

What Liu Zhang is doing now is to speed up the pace of development in China, and after the explosive growth of grain output from high-yield crops, commerce will inevitably flourish, and the germ of Han capitalism will be born.

Liu Zhang cannot hinder social development, and since he cannot change this trend, he should regulate it as much as possible and set a standardized example for future generations.

"In addition, this king has a few suggestions, in addition to the production of more physical products just mentioned, I also hope that you can develop products, and everything is a private craftsman's workshop to develop a new type of product, such as the white porcelain developed by the Qu family in the past.

If you are not willing to sell to the government, the government will give you a reward based on its value, and if you are willing to sell, it will also give you another purchase fee based on its value to share resources.

I can assure you that as long as something is truly valuable, it will be rewarded.

Of course, this kind of development is not only an improvement like white porcelain, maybe you have heard the rumors, the Hetao area is about to be built on a large scale, what paving roads, buying furs, should be preparing.

But I'll tell you another way to get rich. ”

"The way to get rich, what's the way?" Yin Bai and the others all came up, especially the fat golden man, and now when he heard about "money", his eyes were full of stars.

"You can choose the cattle and sheep that grow well and breed new and better cubs."

"Is this very profitable?" Qu Xi hesitated. Dahan has also bred new horse breeds before, and I haven't heard of anyone making money.

"Of course to make money, you can try, in fact, it is very simple to cultivate cattle and sheep with a little advantage, and the success rate is also very high, as long as you cultivate a good breed, your cattle and sheep will have more advantages than other cattle and sheep, so isn't it a source of money?"

Cultivating excellent breeds can be traced back to a long time in Chinese history, but not many people pay attention to this, and there is a long and fast cow, and the herdsmen are very happy, and they quickly sell it to make money, and they are complacent about the few copper plates they have obtained.

Unless it is used for national purposes like the breeding of Western Ryū horses in the past, few people care about this.

Qu Xi said: "But this is taking too long, right?" And even if it is bred up, when the first batch of cattle and sheep is sold, won't others pick up the ready-made cheap? ”

"How do you know it's cheap?" Yin Bai glanced at Qu Xi with disdain.

Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Qu Xi is right, but Qu Gongzi seems to have forgotten the research and development subsidies I said before, high-quality cattle and sheep are also development products, we will give you generous subsidies to ensure that after you breed them, you can make a steady profit." ”

Liu Zhang said to Huang Yueying: "Yueying, look back to you and Zhang Song, as well as relevant officials, study and get a science and technology award, which will be selected once a year, including cultivating excellent varieties, such as white porcelain, and scoring them according to their contribution to the country and the people."

The award-winning individuals or firms are not only publicized by the government to the whole country free of charge, but also have a wealth of science and technology awards. ”

Quxi Yin Bai and others heard Liu Zhang's proposal, and their eyes immediately lit up, this science and technology award is enough regardless of face, if it gets the first place, it will not immediately become famous throughout the country, and the daily necessities produced will not be sold?

"It's fresh, but it's good." Huang Yueying said.

"In addition, crops can also be selected to obtain excellent varieties, and you don't have to be so rigid, although my Han is the kingdom of the Celestial Empire." (To be continued......)
