Section 274 New Thinking (3)
Money is a good thing!
Whether it's the mistake of shouting gold and silver on his lips, that is, he can't eat or wear, or someone else.
It is clear that without money, no policy can be implemented.
No matter how fanciful the truth is, if you can't get money, it can only be reduced to empty talk on paper.
Why can Chao Cuo rise and why can it be valued?
Because of his donation of millet, he alleviated the embarrassment of the lack of grain at the border for the Han family, and also got a lot of financial revenue.
Liu Che looked at the ministers who were bombarded by the news he brought, and asked with a slight smile: "Do you think that such a businessman is beneficial to the country?" ”
Forget it, of course!
As early as the time of the first emperor, the idea of opening the Bao Slope Road and opening up the water connection between Guanzhong and Shu County has been proposed.
This project proposal, as long as it is the minister of the Han family with 2,000 stones, there is nothing that he does not know.
The reason is that once the ramp is opened, it is of great significance.
Not only can it connect Guanzhong with Hanzhong and Shu County, so that the two places can be changed from this moat, and the grain, salt, iron and silk produced in Shu County and Hanzhong can enter Guanzhong unimpeded.
It can also pass through the Yangtze River water system, and transfer the grain from Kanto County to Guanzhong.
The second alone can reduce the forced labor of tens of thousands of families every year.
Not to mention, once the slope is opened, the water and slope water can irrigate at least thousands of hectares of land along the way, benefiting a large number of people.
At this time, the Baochuan Road Project, like the Three Gorges Project in later generations, was a key project of the national brand.
For twenty or thirty years. The Han court organized a number of yamen investigations and inspections many times.
But for various reasons, it didn't work out in the end.
One of the most important reasons for this is that it costs too much!
Even if the migrant workers and convicts who were conscripted from forced labor were removed. At the very least, you have to smash in at least tens of millions of dollars!
As for the people and prisoners, there are not 10,000 or 20,000 people, so don't think about doing it.
Such a large project is obviously difficult to accept for the Han family, which has just come out of the shadow of war and the world is at the beginning of peace.
Especially. During the twenty-three years of the reign of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, the Xiongnu invaded almost every four to five years on average.
In this context. Naturally, there is no way to operate the slope project.
However, officials from the southern part of Guanzhong, Luoyang, and Shu counties have a deep desire and affection for the Baochuan Road project.
Because. Once the ramp is opened. The beneficiary is undoubtedly their family and township.
As soon as the slope is passed, first of all, Caoliang does not need to pass through Guò to Yunyang to transit, and the burden of forced labor in the Luoyang area will be reduced by half immediately!
And if the goods of Shu County can enter Guanzhong, the economy of Shu County will naturally prosper.
The Caoyun Canal can irrigate the land along the way, and the officials in the southern part of Guanzhong are naturally happy to see it.
As a result, the officials from these three places immediately changed their attitudes and bowed out: "The ministers think. If this is the case, then such merchants will indeed be of benefit to the country! ”
And more officials. After hearing the figure of 100,000 yuan, his mind immediately came alive.
In these years, if you have milk, you are a mother.
A huge amount of extra-fiscal income, no one can refuse.
Especially, when this number is large enough to reach a certain distance.
Everyone is not stupid, 100,000 yuan, compared to the cost of the ramp project calculated in the past, even if it is multiplied by ten, there can be a surplus.
So, what is the rest of the money used for?
So, Chao moved his body wrongly, bowed down and asked: "The minister has something unclear, please Your Highness the minister, praise the slope road project, the minister was ordered by the first emperor and the late prime minister Beiping Marquis Zhang Gong to survey together, the minister and Zhang Gong, after calculation, learned that the praise slope project, at most only need to spend 30 million money, Your Highness, 100,000 yuan is so much, I am afraid that it can be a lot of surplus, right?" ”
Clearly, Chao Cuo was the one who started the idea of the remaining money.
As a former family order, the internal history of the past, and the entire imperial court, there is no better understanding of the meaning of money than Chao Cuo.
With money, many things that you wanted to do but couldn't do in the past can be put into action.
With money, it can give a lot of benefits to his subordinates, and it can also use the authority of finance to achieve the effect of surrendering without a fight.
Of course, Liu Che knew that someone would definitely fight the idea of this money.
It is not news at all that the Celestial Empire embezzled and turned funds in the future.
At this point, it's not a big deal.
In particular, at this time, the fiscal and taxation policies of the Han dynasty were still based on the traditional policy of 'living within the limits of income', and the lives of a large number of yamen were actually very embarrassing.
Otherwise, the internal history yamen of Chao Wrong would not have to be crowded with Gao Miao, and would have already found a feng shui treasure and started a new stove.
Therefore, Liu Che can guess with his ass that with such a large sum of money, there will definitely be many people who have made up their minds.
But how could he allow others to come to his bowl and grab food?
Don't care about this money, how much is left in addition to the ramp project.
All in all, this money must be kept in his hands, and no one wants to snatch one!
As far as the young couples of later generations still know, whoever holds the money bag will speak loudly in the family!
Of course, there had to be an excuse or reason to get rid of those hands that were stretched out to Liu Che's bowl.
So, Liu Che smiled and replied: "Doctor Yu Shi doesn't know, this 100,000 yuan is not in place at one time, but allocated according to the progress of the project, and the 50 million yuan in advance will probably be in place in the first month of next year......
That's for sure, in this world, there is no person who can take out as much as 100,000 yuan of funds at once.
Even if it is 50 million money, there are very few people who can raise it in a moment and a half!
Moreover, copper coins are valuable and difficult to transport.
Even if Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying can transport the money to Chang'an in the first month of next year, it is already remarkable!
Liu Che smiled again and said: "Moreover, Doctor Yu Shi doesn't know, this 100,000 yuan, according to the lonely algorithm, is used to praise the slope, and it may be less!" ”
As soon as Liu Che's words came out, even Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, was a little stupid.
Over the years, the plan of the Han family, the expenditure of the entire Baochuan Road project has not exceeded 50 million yuan.
How did Liu Che get there, and this expenditure jumped to 100,000 yuan all of a sudden?
It's ten times all of a sudden, even when Emperor Gao Liu Bang was at the beginning, prices soared and there was no such exaggerated inflation rate, right?
Fortunately, Liu Che is the prince, otherwise, Chao Co slapped Liu Che in the face.
Is there such a loser?
Liu Che smiled slightly, and explained: "The princes don't know, this repair of the Bao Slope Road, Lone and Zhuo's and Cheng Zheng have discussed, Lone thinks that the people's livelihood is difficult, and forced labor is a great difficulty for the people, so this repair of the Bao Slope Road, no conscription, a qiē labor, are completed by hired workers!" ”
Liu Che's words immediately made the ministers buzz again.
Even Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, stood up.
This has never happened before, has it? (To be continued......)
