Yi Wan sneered when she heard this.

Since she met Liu De, this is the first time she has seen something that Liu De doesn't understand.

She gently leaned on Liu De's body, and whispered in Liu De's ear: "Your Highness, Pingjia is the kind of person in charge of arbiting merchants in all markets today who have conflicts with the people because of price problems when trading in the market!" ”

"Huh?" Liu De asked suspiciously: "Is it an official servant of the government?" How come I haven't heard of such an errand service? ”

Yi Wan listened to it and explained with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't know something, Pingjia, not an official, let alone a person from the government, on the contrary, Pingjia is also a businessman!" ”

"When the first emperor was in power, he deeply felt that the local officials brutalized the people from time to time, and there were more corrupt officials and evil officials, pretending to use public power, to buy and sell, but the people could only swallow the bitter fruit, so the first emperor ordered that in all markets, set up a 'unauthorized power', and the person who served as the 'unauthorized power' was called Pingjia, and it was generally elected by the merchants in the market themselves......"

"Pingjia has no official position, no money, no title, and no much power, but he can rule whether the price of the transaction is reasonable, and the first emperor set up unauthorized power, mainly responsible for coordinating the price verification when trading with the market merchants and the government, so as to prevent officials from buying and selling, and at the same time, it can also stop illegal profiteers from abducting and deceiving in the market, therefore, Pingjia is very respected, and is generally the most just person in the market!"

Listened to Yi Wan's explanation.

Liu De felt that this was indeed like the tail of his late imperial grandfather's hand.

It's just, this Pingja's setting. made Liu De's face twitch a little.

Pingjia was not appointed by the government but elected by the people?

It seems that such a free election could not have appeared in this pre-AD feudal era.

But thinking about it carefully, Liu De felt that Pingjia's appearance was not abrupt.

At this time. The old Huang school of thought is very popular, and he governs the world.

And what is Huang Lao's thought pursuing?

Small countries and widows, chickens and dogs smell each other.

In short, the government only needs to manage the strategy, the law, and maintain order, and the rest of the people will deal with it themselves. To put it simply, it is to advocate non-governmental autonomy. For example, the setting of the village elders is proof of this.

Moreover, this Pingjia does not have much power, and can only be responsible for arbitrating whether the price is reasonable.

And because it is produced by election. If this Pingjia does things unfairly, he will be driven down immediately and replaced by a fair person.

Moreover, Jing Yiwan said so. Liu De also remembered.

In a past life. Didn't Liu Pengzu make a fortune by this?

"King Zhao arbitrarily wielded his power, so that the county was Jia Renhui, and the income was more than the national economic tax" Liu De remembered that Liu Pengzu was sued to the court in his previous life, and then Liu Che issued an edict to investigate this matter.

At that time, Liu De heard about it, and thought that Liu Pengzu had used the privileges of the princes and kings without authorization and did the business of buying and selling.

Now hearing what Yi Wan said, Liu De suddenly realized.

How could he, the younger brother, be stupid enough to do such a non-technical thing as buying and selling?

Take control of prices. Set prices, set prices.

The profit is much greater than that of buying and selling certain things. And you don't have to worry about being scolded by someone pointing at your backbone.

After all, what to buy and sell is too shameless for a prince and king, and he has no face to see when he goes out, and it is easy to be sued to Chang'an.

As for holding the power without permission and using his own people as Pingjia, there is no trouble in this regard, even if he is denounced, he will only be scolded by the emperor's brother at most, can the emperor's brother still kill his younger brother because he privately appointed a few Pingjia who did not even have a rank compared to Pingjia?

"That's smart!" Liu De sighed.

There is no doubt that there is a loophole in the Pingjia system, and Liu Pengzu caught that loophole and successfully replaced all the Pingjia in all the county markets of Zhao with his people, and then obtained huge wealth by manipulating prices.

"The Pinja system is very good!" Liu De thought in his heart.

He knew that he had found a balance between striking down the big businessmen, the big landlords, and protecting the small and medium-sized businessmen and the small and medium-sized landlords.

"What I'm thinking about now is still very immature, I still have to think about it, and then, find a place to experiment, do a pilot, improve and improve it through practice, and then implement it to the world!" Liu De thought to himself.

And there is no doubt that the four markets in Chang'an, which he now manages, and this year's autumn harvest grain price war, are good opportunities for him to practice.

"Even if it fails, it's nothing, I hardly have to take risks in doing this......" The more Liu De thought about it, the more excited he became, he couldn't imagine that he couldn't find a countermeasure for a long time, but he was still inspired by a system established by his imperial grandfather back then, and found a way to break the situation.

"The merit is more than Emperor Gao, and the virtue is more than Emperor Taizong!" Liu De sighed with emotion: "This is true! ”

That's not all!

In fact, Liu Xiu was able to recreate the Han family, and his imperial grandfather was one of the reasons.

Even in the last years of Wang Mang's new dynasty, the Red Mei army broke through Chang'an and dug Maoling, but they respected Baling like a god and did not dare to act rashly.

A man who has been dead for more than a hundred years can still make the rebellious peasants dare not attack his mausoleum.

To be an emperor does this.

Liu De feels that this is the real success!

"I don't know if I can achieve so much in the future......" Liu De finally understood why his father was so anxious at this moment.

It's really that the shadow of the first emperor above his head is too big.

Everyone will unconsciously compare their father with the first emperor.

The ministers of the court and the central government are always like the emperor.

As the emperor, as the Son of Heaven, Liu De felt that after a long time, even he might be psychologically unbalanced, and vowed in his heart that he must do something beyond the first emperor.

"It's not easy for Dad......" Liu De sighed in his heart, and then took Yiwan's little hand and walked out of the store.

For Liu De, today is undoubtedly a fruitful day.

"Well, otaku really can't do it!" Liu De took Yi Wan by the hand, walked on the street, and said self-deprecatingly: "If I have been living in the deep palace, how can I know so many things?" How do you know the current situation of this society, I am afraid that it will be like some faint kings in later generations, and do a lot of brain-making things! ”

Not to mention anything else, if there was no trip to the market, Liu De would never have imagined that there would be a system of Pingjia in his life, even if there were ministers suing him in the future, and even mentioning Pingjia in the song, but, as the emperor, he had to watch countless songs every day and listen to countless ministers' advice, where could he pay attention to everything?

What's more, this trip to the market also made Liu Deli clear about the basic context of his financial policy.

Cotton and copper were the economic basis of his future rule.

Coal and iron were the basis of his military industry.

With cotton, iron, coal, and copper, all that's left is to push the world flat! (To be continued......)

PS: -0- Basically, it took me three days to understand the basic operation of the Pingja system, but in many places I still haven't figured it out.

It seems that the VIP chapter can't pass the picture, so tomorrow I'll post a diagram of the operation of the Pingja system in the public chapter explaining gold
