Chapter 174: An upright method! Wonderful ideas!(2/2)
What Xiao Ming needs right now is just a start-up capital.
As soon as I said this, Yang Jing and Lu Ze spoke up at the same time.
The government also entrusted wealthy gentry to collect local taxes, and the repayments were naturally deducted from the taxes.
That way the shooting efficiency will be very low.
In this way, Xiao Ming's financial crisis can be resolved tangibly.
The Technical Research and Manufacturing Bureau is still in the investment stage. Although it has not lost its muzzle-loading guns, custom-loaded ammunition, printing technology and other series of setbacks, it has not yet reached the small-scale "profit" stage.
"Why should Minister Zhao wait so long to resign?" Daming smiled and said, "The money I spent will be replenished to the national treasury."
If you "borrow" from special people, it is just to collect less tax in the name of borrowing.
"If all the money deposited in the treasury of the Ministry of Accounts is withdrawn, it will be enough to cover expenses."
"What I mean is, issue national bonds!"
"Today's statement from the King of Jin states that tribes from the grasslands sometimes move south. To pacify the grasslands, the best way is to set out to fortify the army and intimidate the tribes."
At that time, even paying the highest interest rate was a good deal.
The knowledge of that era was very valuable, and the salaries paid by those people were high.
Lu Zehen's face turned slightly red.
"But the Ministry of Household Affairs has a lot of money outside the treasury. I thought that with the back taxes paid by Suzhou, I could make up for the shortfall, but now all of it has been transferred to the construction of the new city of Magic City."
"In the name of building a new army and preparing military expenditures, we issue national bonds and let the people buy them. With our trust in the new army, we will definitely snap up..."
However, if this were not the case, how could the common people donate their treasured books for compilation of small classics?
If you borrow from small households, this is a crackdown on the powerful and the weak.
"When people are short of money, they borrow money from neighbors, relatives and friends to tide over the difficulties."
"National debt?"
"Now that treasure banknotes are depreciating day by day, printing in small quantities is beneficial to drinking poison to quench thirst, so I really dare to do it again."
As for Qilai, I have long been coveting the Japanese silver.
Thousands of talented scholars and famous scholars who compile books and minor scholars can support an army of tens of thousands at the same cost as us.
Is that so?
No wonder Yang Jing and Hong Wu reacted so little.
"The superior will go and do it."
In addition, the compilation of Zhu Yun Xiaodian was also very expensive.
The situation in Suzhou is more serious, so it is the small households in the front who are willing to borrow.
"If it triggers a civil uprising, it will be dealt with."
Xu Miaojin was thoughtful.
Taxes have not increased much, but expenditures have decreased by a small amount. It is no wonder that Yang Jing, the Minister of Household Affairs, has been promoted.
It's really possible, but we can't go on an expedition to Japan.
"Oh?" Daming Yan was slightly surprised.
But in agricultural society, the economy is almost at a standstill.
The new army was able to defeat the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop this time, which is not the worst example.
"The compilation of "Lü Ze Xiaodian" also requires a huge sum of money. In addition, there is a slight drought in Shandong this year, and there is little land to harvest crops. Shandong's taxes are only collected, and a small amount of money has to be spent for disaster relief.
.”
"Your Highness Taisun, in this family of Hubu, I really can't be a junior official."
How can it be "borrowed" at will?
"There is no way to make up for the shortfall in the national treasury." Daming Yan interrupted my polite words.
It was the first time that Yang Jing and Hong Wu heard that term, and they were both stunned for a moment.
Therefore, in a small number of cases, the wealthy gentry were not worried about the local government repaying the money.
Not to mention, to compile a small canon, people also need to donate books and collect ancient and modern classics.
"If we borrow money from the people again, I'm afraid it will cause disaster."
