Chapter 161 Emphasis on agriculture and mulberry and light on merchants is not the way to use it!
"Head of the family, why should we move to Chang'an City?"
Opening the curtains of the car sedan, she gently closed her hair and smiled quietly, "Old Butler Zhang, let's say that, because a person with a great background said that merchants should not live in a corner and spread widely in the world to grow and grow!"
“The origin is very big, how big is it?”
She chuckled: "He is the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Do you think he has a great origin?"
"God... Emperor?" After asking hesitantly, the old housekeeper stopped talking, and obviously was scared.
He drove his horse to the car sedan chair, where there were more than a hundred and dozens of large wooden carts filled with cargo luggage. The craftsmen sat on both sides of the wooden cart, with about seventy or eighty people. The old butler greeted him, and most of them sang folk songs under the leadership.
The singing is loud and rough, straightforward and rhythmic, dispelling all the depression of rushing on the road, one sound higher than the other.
Most of the simple and clear lyrics,
Singing out the simple and simple inner reading of the hard work, exhausted and sweating.
"Miss, listen, you're singing outside. It sounds not very comfortable, but it feels different when you listen carefully!" The little round-faced maid smiled.
She also smiled, but her eyes didn't look out, and she held her chin with her bare hands, and said slowly: "Isn't the folk songs and music in the countryside? Fortunately, the winter is coming to an end, and the road is riddled with ice and snow, otherwise they will have to work hard to push the cart again."
"Oh~ Why are there so many caravans going to Chang'an City? The snow on the road was completely rolled out. It was originally intended to be used for protection wheels to be frozen, but the salt prepared was not used!" The little round-faced maid lifted the curtains, glanced at the wide road, and sighed softly.
"What are you sighing? Do you still want the wheels to be frozen?" She said with a funny look on the maid's forehead.
The little round-faced maid smiled and said, "Didn't you want to see this? I haven't seen it before..."
The capital of a great country has always been a gathering place for capable people and wealthy businessmen. It has many opportunities and can return home in glory. Although it is defeated and has many infamous, it still attracts a large number of talents.
Just shook her head, she stroked her beautiful face and sighed, "I knew at the beginning that he would ascend the throne as he wished, and there were various government decrees that would be implemented, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly. I was afraid that I would go too late and couldn't even drink a sip of soup.
I originally wanted to dedicate myself to this great emperor to protect my clan, but I looked up to myself and underestimated such a hero. I was rejected directly. It was so embarrassing to me..."
"Miss, I heard that the emperor only has one concubine, that is, the Empress Ajiao who hides Jiao in the Golden House. He is so dedicated and refuses you without any wrongdoing. In my opinion, he has no intention of finding a concubine in a short time." The little round-faced maid guessed.
"I hope this is true. Now I just hope to gain a foothold in Chang'an City and have a place."
After the song was finished, the craftsmen sat in the carriage, and they couldn't help but feel bored, so they lay on the goods and talked about trivial matters along the way.
The old housekeeper did not stop him, so he borrowed the strength of a strong man, jumped into the car, and started talking from the side.
"Hey, why do you think the head of the family is not guarding the huge foundation and is going to open an iron shop in Chang'an City where big people are everywhere?" asked a bald middle-aged man with long beards.
"Zhang Biao, do you want to get the idea of the eldest lady? She is so angry. I watched her grow up and compete with her since childhood. It is not easy for this girl!" As soon as she stood up, the old butler sighed heavily.
Hearing this, a large group of people were attracted to the topic and commented...
The new accountant student also pursed his lips and smiled bitterly: "If it were me, I would not be at ease to hand over the business in the clan to the young master, even if the master was there to give me some advice."
"Okay, Ji An, you're just talking. If you don't hand over the business in the clan to the young master, who else can you give it to?" Chen Sanfa, who was carrying a hammer, curled his lips and looked at Ji An in a weak manner.
"That's right, Ji An, you're just worrying!" Zhang Biao also joined in the fun and joked.
“…”
There were not many merchant vehicles coming and going in Chang'an City, because the Han Emperor Gaozu ordered that merchants were not allowed to wear silk, brocade clothes, were not allowed to carry weapons, ride horses and ride cars, and were not allowed to become officials. They were transferred to the ranks of untouchables according to political orders, and economically, they were heavily levied on merchants to "rent taxes to insult them."
In other places, officials will turn a blind eye, but in Chang'an City, there are definitely no merchants who ride in Jinyi. Even if there are, they will definitely not only have the status of merchants, but may be kings and nobles.
Liu Che didn't understand why he wanted to kill him with one blow? Can't he leave a glimmer of life? He could leave a way for merchants, and those who are capable could be appointed, and the merchants' retreats would not end. This would not cause merchants to become weak or form gangs, which would be detrimental to the development of the city.
These mean regulations will only cause bureaucratic groups to embezzle and merge land, and they are also dominant and have endless harms.
Only by monitoring each other, checking and balancing each other, and walking with the government and the people together can a beautiful scene of allowing the people to reap the benefits of the fisherman...
Therefore, Ren Ma Guard was his representative, and set up a government market, and the subordinates under his jurisdiction, and so on, set up many fulcrum institutions, and in addition, they manage the taxes and fees of merchants all over the world, and use step-by-step tax collection standards, small merchants collect small money, and large merchants collect large money.
The private market is led by many large merchants. Similar to the commercial banks, some of the most powerful merchants are elected as guilds. Every few years, they choose a leader, contact many local leaders, manage illegal merchants, eliminate the acts of raising prices that are unkind and are directly confiscated.
Of course, the official market should have an absolute advantage, conquer the people's cities, so that local merchants will not be able to rob the people.
Liu Che also knew that this practice could not be directly implemented now. There are many domestic worries and there is no need to quell the instability factor. Otherwise, the sudden collapse would be difficult to deal with.
This is also the reason why he promised horses to guard for ten years.
Ten years,
Liu Che is confident,
Xingtai School, run the official school,
This is enough for him to respect Confucianism and to be harmonious with all schools of thought.
To reduce the vassals and control the power of the world alone,
To calm down Baiyue,
Chen Xiong's cavalry hundreds of thousands and infantry hundreds of thousands
To drive the Huns to the north, to invade the Western Regions and other lands,
Even,
Promote population surge...
The reason for promoting population growth is very simple. War requires people, and it is necessary to ensure that there are enough farmers on the land so that too many merchants will not cause too many merchants to cause social structure chaos.
joke,
We must pay attention to agriculture.
A country with a civilized farming
Never abandon the concept of farming!
