Seeing that everyone was silent, I continued: "Regarding land ownership, in a nutshell, two models, state-owned and private, have coexisted for a long time, and the free market will ultimately determine the proportion of the two. I went on to say the following:
The second point is the land use system, which is an integral part of the land property system and stipulates the procedures, means and methods for farmers to use land.
etc. The land planning system is to make planned regulations on the development and use of land, such as restricting deforestation and land reclamation, and not endlessly increasing farmland at the expense of the environment." When I said this, I suddenly thought of urban land planning.
Changing the topic, he said, "City planning should also be put on the agenda. Xiaoqi, I have sent word that the unspoken friends of Lin'an Prefecture will meet at court tomorrow to wait for the decree."
"Yes, I will send someone to convey the order immediately."
I then elaborated on the specific meaning of the land protection system, land acquisition system, land taxation system, land management system, and land supporting system. I explained them all in one breath, and everyone present could not fully understand this series of systems for a while.
It is indeed not easy to understand everything. I took a big sip of tea, moistened my throat and said: "The land system is not a small project. It will take at least three to five years to be effective. It involves the foundation of our agriculture and the various ministries.
If we need help from Dingli, Tang Han, Minister of the Ministry of Industry."
"I'm here."
“Replanning water conservancy construction in various places to ensure irrigation of farmland during droughts and floods, improving agricultural tools, such as curved hoe specially used for weeding, iron rake for breaking soil and loosening soil, iron share installed on columbine, etc., have been used in water conservancy and irrigation.
The keel rollover used, etc., I will also ask the soon-to-be-established Lin'an University to take tool improvement as a research project to achieve the purpose of improving productivity."
"I obey the decree."
"The Official Land Division of the Ministry of Commerce should build branches in various places as soon as possible to lay a solid foundation for national land surveying. In addition, support and encourage agricultural areas with surplus labor to develop handicrafts, commerce, etc."
"I have a river thousands of miles away, and I, Liao Yingzhong, obey the decree."
"The tasks of the Ministry of Household Affairs are to supervise the resettlement of refugees from various places, re-assess land taxes, introduce high-yielding crops, expand crop varieties, and formulate policies to encourage childbearing and restore the population to the previous level of our dynasty."
"Your Majesty Ma Guangzu obeys the decree."
"The Ministry of Rites redefined the population household registration, improved the status of our tenant farmers, and registered them according to their place of origin. They were collectively called agricultural household registrations, and their status was equivalent to urban household registration. In addition, in addition to contraband goods, they expanded trade with overseas countries.
To increase our country’s tariff revenue.”
Ma Tingluan thought for a while and finally said: "My lord, Ma Tingluan, obeys the order."
"The Ministry of Punishment issued all supporting laws to ensure the implementation of land reform."
"My lord, Chen Zongli, obeys the decree."
"Other departments are also stepping up to complete supporting policies. In addition, in order to improve the efficiency of land reform, I plan to establish an eighth department, the Ministry of Agriculture, with Zhao Kui, a member of the royal family and Lu Guogong as the minister, and Chen Yizhong as the minister. Everyone, I emphasize again that I
The DPRK must recover its vitality in these two or three years, otherwise it will definitely not be Mongolia's opponent. This reform will start with the land reform in rural areas, and then slowly extend to all walks of life and cities and towns. This move is related to the great cause of the rejuvenation of our DPRK.
Please take care of yourself."
"I, my ministers, should do my best."
Jia Sidao and Liao Yingzhong looked at each other. Although they did not fully understand my approach to land reform and opposed the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture, Jia and Liao naturally knew that the more departments were divided, the more power would be dispersed. But when they saw me
It is clear and logical, and cannot be refuted for a moment.
Jia Sidao secretly thought that this Zhao Fu city was indeed too deep. The prince Zhao Fu and the emperor Zhao Fu did not look like the same person at all. Especially after the vision came from the sky, he actually felt a little afraid of him. But fortunately
Zhao Yu seems to be always wary of Mongolia, so it seems I can only make a fuss about it.
"Teacher."
"Ah, Your Majesty." My cry brought back Jia Sidao's wandering mind.
"I heard that my ministers have been working hard to develop the economy of our country recently. I wonder if I can think of any good ideas?"
Jia Sidao was stunned and didn't know why I asked such a question. He raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the current currency of our dynasty is in chaos. In the fifth year of Jingding, in order to buy back public land, a large number of Huizi banknotes were issued, which led to the continuous devaluation of Huizi.
This is one, there is another
When the old minister was implementing the public land law, he found that many farmers wanted to rent official land, especially the refugees, but they generally lacked funds and were unable to rent. The old minister was worried about these two things. I wonder what your majesty's countermeasures are?
"
"My teacher is worthy of being a pillar of the imperial court. He can see at a glance the primary problems hindering our economic development." I praised secretly. This guy is not without merit, but I don't know if it is his own idea or the suggestion of his staff?
I did not answer directly. I looked at Liao Yingzhong and said to Wen Tianxiang: "Wen Aiqing, I know that you were an official in Ruizhou before. How did you do it?"
Wen Tianxiang replied: "Your Majesty, when I was in Ruizhou, the war just happened to end, so I raised funds and established a convenience bank. This convenience bank has two major functions. One is to provide loans to people in need; the other is to provide loans at low prices."
Purchase crop seeds in large quantities at low cost and sell them to farmers at low prices.”
"Yes, very good. Sir, I was also thinking about what you are worried about, and it was not until last night that I came up with a good plan in my dream."
"In a dream?" Jia Sidao blurted out. Not only Jia Sidao, but also everyone else suddenly thought of the late emperor's dream.
"Yes, many of my ideas come from dreams."
Most of the people present looked confused, but if it didn't come from a dream, how could it be explained? I smiled and continued: "My dear friends, you all know the bank, right?"
"Your Majesty, all ministers know this."
"Our dynasty uses silver as the first currency in circulation, so I plan to establish the Royal Silver Bank of the Song Dynasty. The silver bank will be owned by the state. Its main functions are as follows. First, establish an independent and unified currency system and cancel the current currency bank in time periods.
The circulating Jiaozi Huizi copper coins and silver are unified to make
Use Song Dynasty banknotes and gradually transition to Song Dynasty banknotes becoming the only standard currency circulating in our country. In order to avoid the depreciation of banknotes, Yinzhuang will issue banknotes based on the gold and silver stored in it. Its issuance plan must be approved by the imperial court.
Do not post indiscriminately; secondly, spread the word quickly
Build branches to form a national bank system throughout our dynasty; third, implement unified national currency management, and each private bank must comply with the regulations of the Song Dynasty Bank; fourth, carry out deposits and withdrawals, lending and lending business for the people, and pay interest and collect interest respectively.
interest; the fifth is to restore the initial stage of Jiaozi
The function of commercial credit notes is to meet the needs of large amounts of transactions; the sixth is to adjust the rise and fall of prices through the amount of currency issuance. Of course, there are many that I have not thought of, and I will add them slowly. In this way, the teacher and minister are worried
Both major problems can be satisfactorily resolved.”
The earliest banking industry originated from the currency exchange industry in ancient Western European society. Initially, currency exchangers only exchanged currency for merchants, and later developed to keep currency for merchants, collect and pay cash, handle settlements and remittances, but did not pay interest and charged storage fees.
and handling fees. With the development of industry and commerce, the business of money exchangers has further developed, and they have gathered a large amount of funds in their hands. In order to make more profits, when money exchangers use the accumulated currency in their hands to issue loans to obtain interest, the currency exchange industry
It developed into a bank.
The Babylonian temples in 2000 BC, the Greek temples in 500 BC, and our country's private banks all had institutions that kept gold and silver, collected and paid interest, and issued loans. Modern banks originated in medieval Italy. Due to the special characteristics of Venice,
Its geographical location made it a trade center at that time. In 1171, the Bank of Venice was established, which was the earliest bank in the world. Jerry Polo also confirmed the existence of the Bank of Venice. Although it was not as complete as later banks, it was fully functional.
It adapted to the social needs of the time.
"Your Majesty, what should we do with the original Jiaozihuizi and silver coins?" Ma Tingluan asked cautiously.
"All of them can be exchanged for the new Song Dynasty banknotes. Huizi and other currencies will be stopped after being parallel to the Song Dynasty banknotes for a period of time. I plan to use three months to prepare. May, leap May, and June will be used to prepare.
Period, until July 10th, Da Song Yin Zhuang will be officially established to manage the currency of our dynasty."
"Which department does Yinzhuang belong to?" Jiang Wanli asked.
"Independent of other ministries and directly responsible to me."
"Why is Zhao Fu so greedy for money?" Jia Sidao thought in his heart, but his face remained the same as he said, "Your Majesty, who will be responsible for this bank?"
"Do you have any suitable personnel to recommend, Master?"
"Well, we don't have it for now. Rong Lao Chen will think about it carefully after he goes back."
"Okay, I will think about it carefully and make a decision in two or three days."
"Is the emperor slowly dividing the power of various ministries? Is it targeting all ministers or just the Grand Master? However, the emperor is indeed a genius with a mind that encompasses everything. What he says is often unimaginable. I am far inferior.
"Yes." Liao Ying secretly thought, should she persuade the Lord to give up her original idea and assist the emperor instead? But when she thought of what Jia Sidao said, there is no turning back when the bow is fired, and she suddenly became uneasy, for Jia's sake
Shidao became worried.
"Your Majesty, Song Chengzu who was sent to Jinhua to investigate the case has returned and is waiting for your Majesty's summons outside the palace." Chen Zongli, the Minister of Punishment, said at the end of the meeting.
"Xiao Qi, it is said that Song Chengzu came to see me in his imperial study."
