I am the king of the dead

If Zhu Qiyu, as the emperor, is planting everywhere, is there any meaning to the enshrinement of power struggle?

Although Zhu Qiyu couldn't, Xu Chengzong obviously could, so Xu Chengzong told everyone bluntly, don't mess around, and give them shit basins, and every buckle is accurate.

Everyone in the audience looked around, but they dared not speak.

Because Xu Chengzong has done this kind of thing before, Yanyun Building is such a big business, going to Luzon Southeast Asia and other places to buy gold and other things is a bigger business, how many people covet it?

But Xu Chengzong was able to maintain such a large business, and he did not do this kind of thing less often.

Xu Chengzong is not afraid, his family has a world certificate to avoid two deaths, but how many people in the audience have a world certificate?

Xu Chengzong took a deep breath and continued: "As far as I know, many of you have a fluke mentality. Everyone is doing this, and I am secretly participating and doing bad things."

"We all eat in Daming's pot. I've seen a lot of your three-legged cat's kung fu."

"As long as you let me know, you just wait!"

"Merchant ships can't enter the Shipbuilding Department. No one wants your goods in the market. The warehouse where you put the goods will be destroyed by fire. Don't blame me if the ship capsizes!"

Wearing small shoes and shutting doors is a common means of exclusion.

Xu Chengzong was trying to scare those idiots, since he refused to live a good life and be a good person, then he couldn't live a good life.

Xu Chengzong looked at the reaction of everyone in the audience, and continued: "I don't know what you are thinking all day long, read the Dibao, learn about financial affairs, and understand a little bit what is meant by the advancement of the country and the strength of the people." These five words."

"Let's not mention it, let's talk about it. During the Yongle Dynasty, the Ming navy sailed across the South Seas and the West. Can our two-masted boats carry firecrackers, bows, and cannons for business? When they heard that they were Ming people, they flocked And then, those Nanyang fans are all looking forward to it."

"Now? Can our merchant ships go out without cannons, firecrackers, crossbows, and long and short soldiers? Japanese pirates are rampant, pirates are rampant, and business is becoming more and more difficult every day!"

Xu Chengzong began to understand it with emotion and reason.

Xu Chengzong's family has more than 2000 two-masted boats that do not violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Doesn't he know whether the business is doing well?

Of course he knows.

The rich merchants on the fifth floor of the Yanyun Building, they all know it too.

Business is becoming more and more difficult day by day, the cost of merchant ships is getting higher and higher due to robbery, pirates and Japanese pirates.

They didn't understand in the past, but His Majesty has already made a summary of financial affairs, explaining the truth in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.

"Is your business going well?" Xu Chengzong seemed to be asking someone, but he seemed to be asking everyone.

Many people in the audience shook their heads. Except for a few people who disagreed, most people agreed.

Business is more difficult than before, everyone knows it, but what is going on, everyone can't say, and after thinking about it carefully, they remembered the benefits of the invincible Ming fleet sailing across the sea during the Yongle period.

Xu Chengzong continued: "We can't take all the benefits of the world, right?"

"Zhao Wuyan is still locked in the yamen of Fusi in Nanzhen. After the investigation, he will be beheaded. You touch your necks, and then think about everything since His Majesty ascended the throne. Think carefully for yourself, will you bring Come to destroy the door."

Xu Chengzong waved his hand, motioning for everyone to disperse.

These powerful merchants originally thought that Xu Chengzong had taken over Zhao Wuyan's class and continued to lead them to fight against the tyranny of the emperor, but only when they came did they realize that Xu Chengzong had already surrendered.

Xu Chengzong's work highlights a threat.

How Sun Zhong forced Li Xian to submit, now Xu Chengzong is forcing these rich businessmen to submit.

Treat guests, decapitate, sway, coerce and lure, and accept pawns.

Zhu Qiyu stood up, only to find that on the second floor of the five-story duplex of Yanyun Building, only his people were there, and the other boxes were empty.

Although His Majesty is active as a "Shandong wealthy businessman", His Majesty is His Majesty.

It's okay if Xu Chengzong didn't know, since he knew, he definitely didn't dare to let other guests in the box on the second floor share the same level with His Majesty, isn't Xu Chengzong tired of living?

For His Majesty's Yongle sword, the emperor killed one, the prince killed three, the county king killed a dozen, and the son-in-law captain killed a litter.

Xu Chengzong didn't think that he could avoid the sharp Yongle sword because he was of the same family.

Zhu Qiyu went down to the attic, and Xu Chengzong waited respectfully by the stairs.

Zhu Qiyu exhorted and said: "Duke Wei, in mid-December, Zhao Wuyan, Xiao Jingtang and others will be pushed to the altar of heaven and earth and beheaded for public display."

"At that time, you let these people go to watch the ceremony again. Knowing what it means to be powerful, about 200 people will be beheaded this time, thousands of people will be exiled in the smog, and nearly [-] people will be sent to Yongning Temple."

"You can organize them to see them off. The scene of more than ten thousand people crying can indeed be stabilized after the cold wave with your methods."

"Equal emphasis is placed on both civil and military skills, so they can know how powerful they are, right?"

Xu Chengzong bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

When Zhu Qiyu left Yanyun Tower, he smiled and asked Chen Wanniang: "Will you go see your matchmaker?"

Chen Wanniang shuddered violently, shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not, and I can't."

Zhu Qiyu secretly said it's a pity, although Xu Chengzong said that the matchmaker didn't matter, but Zhu Qiyu didn't believe it.

If Chen Wanniang went to see the matchmaker, wouldn't this be a bait?

Then you can fish out a prince.

But obviously this bait has not been given by Zhu Qiyu, Wei Guogong began to avoid suspicion. It is a pity that such a good bait.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "Well, take two Tiqi, you can go for a stroll if you want to, and you can go back to the palace if you don't want to."

"Is Your Majesty going to abandon the servant's house?" Chen Wanniang asked full of resentment, and they had only been together for less than half an hour, and they were about to separate again.

Zhu Qiyu rubbed Chen Wanniang's head and said: "What I want to do is state affairs, well, go back and wait for me."

Chen Wanniang pursed her lips, leaned into Zhu Qiyu's ear and whispered, "I'm waiting for Your Majesty, come back soon."

Zhu Qiyu pulled Chen Wanniang, but asked in a low voice: "Then, is Wanniang the Baotu Spring, the Black Tiger Spring, or the Pearl Spring?"

Chen Wanniang's fair neck was covered with rosy immediately, her face was flushed, and she couldn't help herself, she said in a very low voice, "Your Majesty is teasing my servant again..."

"Whatever your majesty likes, that's what my servant will be."

Baotu Spring is the largest spring in Jinan Prefecture. It has a spectacle of three pillars and water gushing like a wheel.

Black Tiger Spring is the second largest spring in Jinan Prefecture. It is named for its sound like the roar of a tiger when the water stimulates the pillars.

Pearl Spring is the third largest spring in Jinan Prefecture. It is said that the big one is a pearl, and the small one is a pearl. It gathers, disperses, breaks, continues, rushes, and slows down.

The three springs have different colors and different tastes.

Zhu Qiyu patted Chen Wanniang's arm, signaling her to go back first, Chen Wanniang turned her head three times at a step, even through the thick veil, she could still see the reluctance in her eyes.

Before Zhu Qiyu reached Yangshikou, the car driver came to his side.

He got into the car, Jin Yiwei gathered from the pedestrians in the streets and alleys, escorted the car and left along the Jubao Gate towards Fengtai Gate.

He is going to inspect the saddle factory today, accompanied by Yu Qian, Li Xian and others.

First, I came to see the progress of the saddle factory, and the most important thing was to see how the work of Wang Xi, the right servant of the Ministry of Industry, was doing.

The second is to go and see the labor and reformation of the prisoners in the prison camp.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and asked: "Li Xian, last time you read the note book written by Hu Shang, did you have an answer to your first two questions?"

Li Xian bowed his head and said: "I am stupid, and I didn't realize it until the inscription of Hu Shangshu arrived."

Yu Qian was full of smiles, Li Xian didn't understand your majesty's vulgar characters and common words, but when they translated into Dao and Ming, they complement each other, Li Xian understood instead.

However, Hu Wei is worthy of being a 40-year-old tumbler of the Ming Dynasty and an evergreen tree in the officialdom. He can always translate His Majesty's words into words that everyone can understand with the most keenness and accuracy.

"There is still a long way to go to Ma'anshan, so you can continue to ask your questions." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.

There is nothing to do left and right, Zhu Qiyu always has to go back to Beijing, and there is always someone to take care of everything in the Nanya. Li Xianneng tried his best to maintain stability when he usurped the court, and it is worth cultivating.

Moreover, he was not in the capital, and the Salt and Iron Conference in the Beiya had few results. Li Xian asked fourteen questions, and every question almost got to the root.

For example, speculation causes the use value and exchange value of commodities to change from an orderly difference to an opposition, and finally to an absolute contradiction. This is financial affairs, the first fundamental social contradiction.

For example, the difference between the essence and fact of money, that is, social labor and the value it expresses, constitutes the second fundamental contradiction.

Li Xian didn't immediately ask the third question, but bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I am stupid. Before asking the third question, I want to have some stupid opinions on financial affairs."

"Your Majesty does not use Daming banknotes but Jingtai Tongbao. I think your Majesty also has outline articles."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "What's Li Aiqing's opinion?"

Li Xian quickly bowed his head and said, "I dare not be a minister."

"First of all, gold, silver, copper, iron and tin are materials, and they are supplied cumulatively. Because of their low use value and high exchange value, they are designated as materials for imperial silver coins and Jingtai Tongbao."

"In this way, even if there is speculation, even if it is flying money, it will have a certain exchange value, instead of being a pile of waste paper like Daming's banknotes."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, since it involves people's livelihood, no matter how safe it is, it can't be overstated.

Daming's financial affairs are extremely fragile.

Li Xian continued: "Secondly, gold, silver, copper, iron and tin do not need to be exchanged on a large scale in a short period of time. The method of money is more durable than the method of banknotes. The Ming Dynasty did not mint money and print money, which also led to speculators' unauthorized .”

"The outline article of customizing silver coins and Jingtai Tongbao is to make a lot of power. Even if speculators want to usurp power, the cost is extremely high."

"Your Majesty, there are actually a lot of coins made in the former Song Dynasty that are still circulating in the market. I think they should all be replaced with Jingtai Tongbao."

Yu Qian thought for a while and said, "Li Yushi, let me remind you that it's not that the Ming Dynasty did not mint money. Although the Baoyuan Bureau did not mint much money, it can still meet the tribute rewards."

Even if 2000 million coins are minted every year, compared to the demand of 30 billion, it is a drop in the bucket, but this is a national system, and Ming Dynasty had this system.

If Li Xian's words were heard by the censors, he would be arrested and sprayed until he became an official.

"Thanks to Yu Shaobao for teaching." Li Xian bowed his head and said in a cold sweat.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "Go ahead."

Li Xian bowed his head and said: "The third is gold, silver, copper, iron and tin. The supply is roughly fixed. However, once banknotes are issued, the quantity can be increased at will. It is not restricted by supply and demand at all. Although the face value is small, it is also profitable. Some people imitate and issue more at will, fearing that prices will skyrocket, and Jie Shi is really more feared than natural disasters."

Li Xian supervised the private issuance of salt quotations, and salt quotations are undoubtedly a kind of currency.

Salt leads to ups and downs, how many people's livelihoods are affected?

Zhu Qiyu was full of emotions, Li Xian is talented, there is no doubt about it, once Zhu Qiyu explained some problems, he would understand by analogy.

He nodded and said: "You sent the three articles you wrote to Bei Ya as a commentary on the inscription. That's true."

"Then what is your third question?"

Li Xian asked tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Yu Shaobao once said that everyone in the world is private. Your Majesty, I ask you, should the imperial court recognize private rights?"

361 chapter money method is safer than money method

Yu Qian remained silent, the topic finally became dangerous the moment Li Xian opened his mouth.

Yu Qian still doesn't know what is in those fourteen questions, but he has the answer to this question.

Whether or not to recognize private rights is an extremely important topic.

Yu Qian recognized private rights, so he never got involved in the fight between the Ministry of Households and internal funds. Jin Lian recognized private rights, so the Ministry of Households tore up with His Majesty every day.

The orderly competition between the Ministry of Households and internal funds is also beneficial to the government.

Zhu Qiyu had read Li Xian's Fourteen Questions Memorial in advance, which was Li Xian's greatest achievement in the imperial court.

Since he asked Li Xian to speak, Zhu Qiyu naturally had an answer ready.

"As the imperial court, we are in charge of public affairs, so we naturally have to recognize private rights, otherwise, wouldn't we be revitalizing the well field system?" Zhu Qiyu first answered Li Xian's question face-to-face.

Under Fang Xiaoru's strong urging, Zhu Yunwen even wanted to start the well field system, which not only offended the martial arts and military meritorious service, but also offended the powerful and powerful, the gentry, and the wealthy businessmen.

Jiangnan itself should be the base of the powerful and powerful family. Zhu Yunqi has offended his own base. How can he succeed in the fight for Taoism?

Zhu Qiyu changed the subject and said very solemnly: "But I don't admit it: private rights are sacred and inviolable!"

"Public power is sacred and inviolable!"

Yu Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his head with a smile and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Being a courtier under His Majesty does not require any effort.

There is an expert behind your majesty, this is what Yu Qian has always known, but has the expert behind your majesty followed him south?

Yu Qian did not intend to trace the source of this issue. His Majesty is right, he has nothing to advise.

Yu Qian only intends to do what a courtier should do.

Courtiers have six righteous and six evil.

Flattery speaks of evil, detracts from the master's injustice, and cliques compare with each other, so as to deceive the master's understanding.

When entering, it is easy to argue with words, and when going out, it is even more different in speech, so that white and black are indistinguishable, right and wrong are indistinguishable, waiting for others can be deduced, and because of this, the master spreads evil in the territory and hears it in the neighbours.

Those who are like this are also the ministers of the subjugated country.
