First Minister of Ming Dynasty

This analysis by Hu Yan can be regarded as a general description of the situation in Peiping. The production efficiency is extremely high, but at the same time, the difference is also huge. Even without considering those Koreans, it is far beyond the Central Plains.

"Hu Xiucai is a farmer and a commoner. He works all day long. Why is Peiping better than other places?" Queen Ma asked slowly in a soft voice.

Hu Yan immediately said: "If you go back to the Empress, it is true that the farmers are busy all day long and rarely have a rest. But they are doing too complicated things. In addition to sowing and harvesting, they also need to build houses, tidy up the yard, plant vegetables, chop firewood and weave baskets. , go to the market to sell products. Many of them are doing things for their own family, not to make more money. But in the factory, it is different, from morning to night, a person only does one thing. The so-called practice makes perfect, time After a long time, it will naturally work fast and well."

Zhu Biao also asked: "According to what you said, doing only one thing can really be faster and better, but people can't only do one thing when they live, so how can they survive?"

"Wages!" Hu Yan replied, "This is the most important experience in Peiping... In the past, we regarded a family as a group, men farming and women weaving, working together to survive. Now we treat everyone as a group. It is regarded as an individual who works for a living. This person works to earn money, and then uses the money to buy other things he needs. That is to say, in Beiping, money is more important than anything else. Buy and sell transactions, survive and continue!"

Old Zhu was a little silent, and said casually, "he said whether he has money or not, is it possible?"

Hu Yan nodded, "Although the students are willing to get second grades, it is true!"

At that time, Zhang Chengtian suddenly said, "Your Majesty, in the past, between the family, whether it was women farming and men weaving or hunting and gathering, parents raised their children and gave them what they got to the children, that was a deal. , and it needs currency support. Naturally, there are laws to be included in statistics, and taxes are collected. Like Peking, everything is turned into transactions, every money transaction has no trace, and every commodity labor can be Finding it in the market will indeed bring about unexpected changes.”

Zhang Chengtian didn't say that it must be good to do it, because outside the bones of the Chinese people, there is no pastoral romance, and even in the past life, no one pursues poetry and distance.

Self-cultivation, self-eating, self-entertainment, family together, picking chrysanthemums on the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan. That kind of fairy day, can you say it is good?

It's just that for a country, specialization, monetization, and then the financial boom and power surge brought about are unacceptable effects.

Before Zhang Chengtian finished speaking, Hu Yan pondered for a while, and added, "The words of your Majesty, what the Taishi said, is also the crux of Peiping. I borrowed a lot of money from King Yan's Palace, and I really lacked a lot of money. , and such a small loan, with or without such a small amount of cash, has maintained the abnormal operation of Peiping!"

That said, Zhu Di was moved badly, good brother-in-law! It is your bosom friend, you all know that you have borrowed so little money, but you are still thinking about it carefully, and you are indebted to the country!

He is such a low man!

I admire that little brother-in-law who read less, I recognized it!

Lao Zhu, Ma Huangqian, Zhu Biao, the eight people also understood, and asked a few details.

Hu Yan answered all of them one by one... Hu Yan's exploration and research have actually revealed some laws in the early stage of industrialization.

For example, setting up factories for the purpose of producing goods on a small scale can provide very little efficiency gains.

For workers, retrogressing a rational and scientific division of labor can also slow down production exponentially.

The first change brought about by the model that is all about producing commodities is the slow and sharp increase in commodity wealth.

Taking the Central Plains as an example, the common people are farmers. They grow and eat their own crops, spin their own cloth, and raise some poultry. He said that was the case? Yes, at least stable and steady. It is also the pursuit of the common people for thousands of years. Xia Zhifeng started his business, and Zhang Chengtian's decree of equalization was to satisfy the desire of the people.

But the next step is to develop, to increase the national strength, the salt tax and the land tax are really pitiful, far enough to support a country in the future.

Before the transition to the industrial and commercial model, taxes would be incurred everywhere for food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and the number of commodities would increase exponentially, and the imperial court could take away fewer things.

Those benefits are obvious and self-evident.

But Gong Ruoxiong is also a fool. There are so few benefits, is there any harm?

The disadvantages are also there.

The farmers are very hard, but the hard work of the farmers is only when the farming is busy, and we work for ourselves. This kind of mentality is exactly the same.

When it comes to the workers, they have to work hard all year round, with no rest at all. And the wages you can get are not necessarily less than farming, but if you are better, there will be more.

And there is no boss, the foreman is staring, completely at the mercy of the times. Poor housing, poor food and livestock... That's all abnormal. If you're sane, it's useless to say.

In fact, from beginning to end, Gong Ruoxiong was very inferior, and the development of industry and commerce is bound to be risk-free. Is there such a cheap thing in the sky?

But until today, Gong Ruoxiong finally wants to be vague about that... No matter what, we must develop business and industry, and we must go all out to go that way!

It's for other reasons. Any emperor who has no pursuit, or the head of a country without ambition, will increase his strength every time!

Just like when Zhang Chengtian advocated giving fields to men, Xia Zhifeng did it because it could double his combat power. Now that the product can be increased tenfold, Xia Zhifeng has also decided to spare no effort and push back.

As for the problems that may arise, we just need to rectify them with a little effort, formulate laws and regulations, and strictly investigate the law.

Xia Zhifeng Xiaowu pushed aside the clouds and mist, and glimpsed the joy of heaven.

When I look at Hu Yan, the more I look at it, the more I see it. That old man, smart and down-to-earth, with good knowledge, and a good person... How did we ever think of making me a son-in-law?

What a negligence!

"He's very good." Lao Zhu took the initiative: "Stay here, let's have a meal together."

In the face of Lao Zhu's invitation, how could Hu Yan dare to be divided.

Xia Zhifeng immediately asked people to prepare it. That banquet was very fun. It was a small imperial banquet, one by one, but it was a family dinner, and it was a round table.

What's more boring is that Lao Zhu only prepared two small tables.

Under Lao Zhu's table, our couple, Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Gong Ruoxiong, Zhang Shuning, Zhu Yuanzhang, Gong Ruoxiong, and Hu Yan.

As for my prince and princess, they were all arranged under a table in another room.

From that arrangement alone, too little mystery can be seen.

He thought he was golden branches and jade leaves, but he was right, and there were only so few who could get down on the table.

If no one figured it out, why should the two sons of the Zhang family, including Zhang Chengtian's male apprentice Gong Ruoxiong, be able to sit under the main table, are we more honorable than the princess and the prince?

Without such an idea, it can only be said that it is still too simple.

A person's status depends only on one's own identity, but also on one's own struggle... Although Zhang Shuning is very old, the educational methods I have tinkered with have become well-known in the sky, and the teaching materials I have written have sold for hundreds million copies.

Zhang Ximeng organized the survey of the seven seas, and is writing the theory of the earth's circle and the movement of celestial bodies.

With your current achievements, these seniors in Qin Tianjian should be respectful.

Zhu Yuanzhang was almost there, but at least he was mixed up with a commander of the Gongwei Division.

It can be clearly seen that there are few people on Zhang Taishi's side, but the quality is extremely low.

Even Hu Yan was considered Zhang Chengtian's disciple.

As for Lao Zhu, aside from Zhu Biao and Zhu Di, there are very few who can do it.

Faced with such a situation, Lao Zhu was also quite embarrassed, so during the banquet, I kept asking Hu Yan, both family and studies.

No matter what, that son-in-law must take it!

Gong Ruoxiong is also ruthless. Don't look at the quality of our children, but we can find a few good sons-in-law. When a dozen sons-in-law line up and fight against his grand master Zhang, we will also suffer!

Old Zhu was thinking about it, but Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were rolling. I heard sporadically that Zhu Di owed a small amount of money, and that time was actually a relief for Zhu Di.

Zhu Yuanzhang still understands it too well, even after listening to Hu Yan's explanation, I still fully understand it.

But that also prevented Zhu Yuanzhang from giving Zhu Di eye drops.

"Your Majesty, King Yan's Palace has created such a small foundation, and Peiping has been governed so well. Compared with the next, Peiping will also prosper, and there will be a lot of future prospects, right?"

As soon as I said that, Xia Zhifeng came up with enthusiasm, and I pondered: "Peiping is indeed wrong... But Hu Yan also said just now that Peiping has no debts, is that so?"

Zhu Di's heart thumped, and he said hurriedly: "It is true, I thought that the problem was small. After all, the child can handle it, and others will be even worse."

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said: "King Yan's words are too modest, he is more powerful than King Yan, if you count it, you will be the person under the table. First of all, the empress and empress are in heaven, and she is in charge of those things. Yes. Secondly, when the Crown Prince is in charge of the country, he can always use the treasury to fill the hole. No matter what, your father seems to be able to do business, isn't it?"

Xia Zhifeng smiled slightly, "His big thing, he said that we should carry it! To be honest, we have already made up our minds, is it a debt of 10 million yuan! We already knew that!"

Xia Zhifeng smiled at Zhu Di, "Lao Qi, don't be afraid, there is no father!"

When Zhu Di heard those words, he was so unhappy that he was about to burst into tears.

"Father, it's a lie, the child's ten million yuan is actually just a debt of the Yan Wangfu, and there are still many other debts!"

"What?" Lao Zhu was stunned, "I don't have any debts yet? He's enough to borrow money from Prince Yan's mansion, and there's no one to borrow?"

Zhu Di said reluctantly: "There are no textile factories, grain companies, lumber factories, shipping companies... There are no shares of the Yan Wangfu outside, and no guarantees are provided by the left-behind department. The company's firm, including Peiping Bank, has borrowed a lot of money. That time when the baby left Peiping, it was best to have no setbacks and setbacks.

Xia Zhifeng's scalp was numb when he heard it. I originally thought that a Zhu Di would be able to pay no matter how much he owes.

"Lao Qi, how much does he owe, and he has countless things outside his heart?"

The corners of Zhu Di's mouth twitched slightly, "Father, it is conservatively estimated that it is 80 million!"

"Is this conservative?"

"Maybe not 70 million, to 80 million!"

"What did he say?" Gong Ruoxiong suddenly stood up slowly~www.readwn.com~80 million! That difference is at least 40% of Xiao Ming's annual income.

"Zhu Di, he, he is so cowardly!"

Zhu Di also has a law, "Imperial Father, you think so too, but if you borrow money, we also borrow money, borrow money, and make it into such a small stall..."

"Okay, let's talk!"

Xia Zhifeng really waved his hand, "Let's eat first!"

There is no such thing. Who can eat the first half of the meal. Before the hasty start, Xia Zhifeng sent all of them away, leaving only Zhang Chengtian.

In the first sentence, Lao Zhu said directly: "Sir, whatever it is, help us pass the test!"
