Money and grain, money and grain, both of which have been superimposed on the bureaucracy in successive dynasties.

Originally, Liu Xing wanted to use all the money as a salary to distribute to the officials of the DPRK and China, but after the wedding, Liu Xing suddenly figured out one thing and wanted to be a real ********, but giving money was a double-edged sword.

It is possible to use the bureaucratic group to promote the prosperity of social and economic development, and at the same time, it is also possible to stimulate the breeding of more greedy dogs and officials after the social and economic prosperity.

The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and greed and hatred have always been the root of human beings' innate obsession. No one can change this, it is something that Nuwa Niangniang has planted deep in the soul of human beings with the dirt in the soil when she pinched out human beings.

Since he couldn't change it, Liu Xing knew that he could only satisfy himself to the greatest extent. As long as it is sufficient, in the face of a strong system and strict laws, it is possible to truly put an end to the emergence of corrupt officials.

However, the income of officials and soldiers in the Northern Dynasties was already the best in the world, and it could even be described as "extremely high". It is obviously unrealistic to add more money, but on the contrary, it may breed new social class contradictions.

So what to do? When there was no countermeasure, Liu Xing could only move out of the previous system of double pay for money and food again.

But what Liu Xing didn't expect was that greed was not only revealed so quickly in those magistrates, but even Zhao Ding, the head of the Great Song Dynasty and his most trusted person, also revealed his greedy side at the juncture when he decided to forcibly issue financial development bonds on apportionment.

"Don't you know how much more money and food the Beijing officials have than the foreign officials?" Knowing that this kind of greed should be suppressed as soon as it appeared, Liu Xing lowered his face and glared at Zhao Ding.

The voice immediately became extremely cold, and Liu Xing asked, "The Jingguan have a lot of entertainment, and they caused it themselves. I am also a Beijing official, but my money and my food are not used at all. Don't those knights in my house eat? Do you wait for someone to walk around the house on weekdays? I don't have to spend money on my house? ”

At this point, after a short pause, Liu Xing continued: "Everyone is shouting loyalty to the Great Song Dynasty and loyalty to me, what's the matter, do you just want to keep taking rich money from the imperial court and from the hands of the little master, but when I need it in the Great Song Dynasty, they all turn me into a miser, and want to be an iron rooster and give me a dime?" Is such loyalty credible? Do you think I'll need that kind of allegiance? ”

After repeating three times in a row, after Liu Xing finished speaking, Zhao Ding was already trembling slightly with fright. He knew it in his heart. What Liu Xing said is reasonable. The imperial court gave high-ranking officials a generous luke, and now the imperial court needs to increase the Kuping reserves, and money is the most needed thing for the Kuping reserves.

If there is no money, whether it is a Beijing official or a foreign official, there is still food to support the family and entertain guests and friends. But if Liu Xing fails to borrow money, then he will not be allowed to make another policy adjustment, and at any time let a large number of officials who are unwilling to pay out of their pockets to help the imperial court increase Kuping pat their butts and leave. At that time, those officials had no money to keep and no food supplements, and they were completely stealing chickens and rice......

knows Liu Xing's personality and character very well, Zhao Ding knows the reluctance bred by his greed, and in the face of such a leading brother, he can only choose to suppress it by himself. Those who know the times are Junjie. He didn't want to anger Liu Xing in person for the sake of temporary greed, for the greed of more people who didn't have much to do with him.

With a wry smile, Zhao Ding said: "It seems that the decision of Taifu to borrow money from the military and political classes to do business is beyond question, so his subordinates just have to do it." But the subordinate still has a word, I hope you can listen to it, Taifu. ”

"If you have something to say, don't talk nonsense." Liu Xing was very unhappy about being greedy for someone he trusted, and because of that greed, he wanted to go against him, so he became a little impatient when he spoke this time.

Zhao Ding didn't mind Liu Xing's tone at all, he sneered and said: "I also ask Taifu to ask the officials to issue a decree to state what are the benefits of this matter to the society, the military and political officials, and the people." Knowing is affectionate, knowing is reasonable. so as not to make a very bad storm to shake the foundation of our dynasty. ”

This is a good idea, although Liu Xing is angry that Zhao Ding has greed. But it was clear to him that it was a good idea.

If you want someone else to pay for it, you have to explain to them what they will get if they pay for it. If you don't make it clear, few people will willingly take out the money that went into their pockets and give it to you to do business because of your sentence "for the sake of the country and the society of the Great Song Dynasty and the prosperity of the people and the strength of the people".

What is loyal to the court and loyal to himself, Liu Xing knows very well that human beings are selfish. Is there any kind of person who really forgets to die? Yes, but not many. Is there such a person who is dedicated to the public? There are, and they are even rarer in the world.

Thousands of miles of officials are only for money. Sending a son to join the army is also for money. This is the status quo created by the selfish nature of human beings, and it is a status quo that no one can completely change.

Faced with this situation, Liu Xing immediately thought of another idea.

After Zhao Ding's suggestion was finished, he lowered his head and just thought slightly, Liu Xing immediately looked at him again and said: "The express is to be issued, but there is still one more indication in the express, that is, this financial development bond is only issued once a year." The quota will also be set by the General Administration of Financial Services and the Ministry of Households in consultation with other arrangements at a cabinet meeting. ”

After a slight pause and another thought, Liu Xing continued: "My idea is to issue only 100 million dragon yuan bonds in the first phase. While increasing the reserves by 100 million, adding 100 million in cash can also alleviate the demand of the market. If this issue has an effect after its release, it will have experience in releasing it next year, and it will be easy for the government and the people to accept it. The most important thing is that it will not pose too much negative threat to the Kuping reserves and financial development. ”

After all, the borrowed money is not his own money, and if the country's reserves are all maintained by borrowing money, Liu Xing knows that sooner or later there will be problems, and it will be a big problem.

Once there is a big problem because the reserve is borrowed, it is very likely that there will be no crowds of people to fight and fight a war, and a country and a court will be easily blown to pieces and fall apart at any time by the customized hidden explosion point.

Therefore, bonds need a quota, not only dragon coins can be exchanged for gold and silver at any time, but bonds must also be able to mature with the interest that should be paid, and real money and silver can be exchanged at any time at maturity. This is a kind of integrity, financial integrity, and neither the state nor the individual can undermine it.

Whoever loses his trust will never recover. Whoever destroys financial integrity will inevitably be ruined and worse off than dead. This is an iron law, Liu Xing will not break it, let alone let the Northern Song Dynasty, the court with itself as the core, try to break it. Because if a court loses its trust in the people, it will inevitably be subverted or even squeezed to extinction by internal forces. (To be continued.) )
