Chapter 1454: Foresight
Although Li Dongyang was holding a teacup in his hand, he looked serious, but a little appreciation flashed in his eyes.
Ye Chunqiu continued: "In this way, although the royal family felt worried, the people targeted them were thousands of people and thousands of scholars. The law did not blame the public. Even if they came to the court to cry or wanted to take revenge, who could they take revenge?"
This is really what Li Dongyang did. In fact, he has made people start to publicize through Taibai Ji. Some local officials have also begun to see the direction of the wind and have formed public opinion in the local area. In addition, among scholars, this topic has begun to be rampant. The harm of supporting the royal family has attracted more and more criticism. This is Li Dongyang's first move.
At this time, Ye Chunqiu said again: "I believe that Mr. Li's intention was to use this to form a storm. When the pressure of the royal family became increasingly high, the censor impeached some illegal royal families, so that they would have other worries in addition to the expiration of their salary. Later, the court formulated a charter that could bargain with the royal family, but stopped offerings, so as to bargain with the royal family. When the royal family saw such a big momentum, they couldn't help but worry, fearing that the court would directly expel their salary. But when Mr. Li's "impartial" charter was released, although it would cause some losses to the royal family, the worst result for them was to completely expel their salary. On the contrary, this charter would definitely retain a lot of sweetness for them, which would make them barely accept it."
Hearing this, Li Dongyang smiled slightly and said, "So, what do you think Zhenguo Duke?"
Looking at Li Dongyang's reaction, Ye Chunqiu knew that he had not guessed Li Dongyang's thoughts at all. Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "Mr. Li is far-sighted, but he still missed one step."
Li Dongyang couldn't help but frown slightly. To some extent, he did admire Ye Chunqiu. Today, under the rage of Your Majesty, he could drive away those two women with ulterior motives and make Your Majesty feel relaxed in the end. It can be seen that Ye Chunqiu's wisdom is not ordinary. More importantly, at a young age, he was familiar with his strategies for dealing with the royal family and did not go on a business trip at all. It can be seen that Ye Chunqiu is not as simple as it seems!
Now Ye Chunqiu mentioned a mistake, and Li Dongyang had to be serious, with a strange look on his face and said, "Oh? Do Chunqiu have any ideas?"
Ye Chunqiu said: "Although this is boiling frogs in warm water to prevent the royal family from overreacting, Mr. Li did not leave them a way out. If there was a restaurant in the neighborhood, the restaurant business was good and the income was guaranteed to be borne by drought and flood, Mr. Li wanted to buy their shops, and although they could boil frogs in warm water, they felt that this business could not be done, and they were in danger of being safe, but one day, when they were sent to recruit their shops, would they really accept it? I don't think that Mr. Li cut off their life path. Even if he gave some small favors to protect them, they were royal families. Some of these royal families were fuel-efficient lamps. This method might be used to deal with ordinary people. However, when dealing with the nobles of Tianhuang, Mr. Li was afraid that this plan would be wrong."
Li Dongyang thought about Ye Chunqiu's words seriously, and after thinking about it, he felt that there would be risks, so he couldn't help but say, "Since Duke Zhenguo proposed this mistake, I guess he has a good solution?"
Ye Chunqiu thought and smiled and said, "I have a superficial idea. I'm afraid I'll make Mr. Li laugh. The salary is actually to give people fish, but there are too many people and are crowded, but the fish is not enough. So, I might as well give them pressure to make a living by themselves. If the news is getting louder and louder and the royal family feels that it's not good, if I give them a chance, a chance to teach people how to fish, and let them catch themselves. When they have another stable source of wealth, they will always have another way out, so they will not make a big fuss. It's better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish."
Let the royal family make a living on their own?
With Li Dongyang's foresight, how could he not think about this? However, this involves the law of ancestors established by Taizu. There was a clear order that the royal family could not make a living on their own and had to rely on the court to support them. In other words, even if you let them do other things on their own, they would have no ability, and the second thing would have touched the law of ancestors.
Ye Chunqiu seemed to see through Li Dongyang's thoughts, and casually plastered tea, then said: "Of course, the ancestors' methods are here, and it is difficult to change them without any changes. Therefore, Chunqiu had an idea, so why not let Chunqiu establish a Zhenguo government investment bank in Zhenyuan Kingdom to absorb funds and use it to make profits. If Mr. Li created the momentum of a salary cut, the royal family would be worried at this time. If the investment bank gave them a chance to invest and told them that as long as they took out the principal and everyone would build this investment bank together, they would be able to lie down and eat interest every year. These royal families had their own family. Once they had such a way out, even if they had a salary cut, they would not cause trouble."
Li Dongyang didn't understand this very much, and couldn't help but say, "What is this investment bank?"
Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "There are countless profitable livelihoods in this world, and many people even have their own ideas. My Ming Dynasty has abundant resources. Now many people are beginning to become rich and their demand for various commodities is getting bigger. Now it is a good time to do business. If you do business, you can make profits. However, many people, although they have the ability to make money, are limited by their weak capital, but they have to do their small business transactions. Although they can earn money, they can also make money to support their families. However, because they do not have enough capital, they have to borrow usury or sit in a troubled city. In essence, this investment bank is lending, or they have to take a lot of money to invest in various industries to make profits. In this way, many merchants and workshops can expand production and earn more money when they get this investment. And investment banks can also get huge benefits in the investment process."
Speaking of this, Ye Chunqiu showed a little confidence on his face and continued: "The signboard of Zhenguo Mansion has always been loud. As long as Chunqiu is willing to stand up and make sure to earn money, the royal family has just hidden money and food that has been accumulated for generations. At this time, can they not be moved?"
