The autumn wind blew, the grass and trees were yellow, and the geese returned south. Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang, who returned from Menxia Province, returned to his private class, started talking to his wife Dou. As he spoke, he revealed a little news:

"Your Majesty can't see it, but he was so happy that he kicked the threshold out of the way with one kick, and then limped away, the whole audience was quiet, and the participants probably laughed."

After hearing this, Dou Shi felt the scene of the emperor limping and walking in her mind. She really wanted to laugh, but she didn't forget to ask, "Didn't Sanlang laugh?"

"Everyone pretended not to hear or see, who dared to laugh?" Li Yuan finished a cup of tea and breathed a sigh, "It's been almost half a year since the quarrel, but after all, it's passed. At this moment, I'm afraid that many people are already crying with joy and running around and shouting."

Dou just heard from Li Yuan that the Political Affairs Hall meeting passed the proposal of Pingzhang and the Institute of Qi Wang Yuwenli to legislate to ensure the legitimate rights and interests of merchants, cancel discriminatory content against merchants in various laws, and allow workers and businessmen to gain equal status as civilians.

At the same time, strengthen the management of industry and commerce, and a law called "The Imperial Decree of the Great Zhou Shang Law" (referred to as the Shang Law) will be promulgated and implemented soon.

This "Business Law" is the product of fierce debates and compromises among all parties in the past six months, including the "Company Regulations" and the "Businessmen Regulations" formulated by the Qi Wang organization personnel.

It can be said that the "Shang Law" laid the foundation for the subsequent development of Zhou's industry and commerce, and the court's determination to promote industry and commerce was also reflected in the "Shang Law".

As one of the four-ping chapters, Li Yuan had a revised manuscript of the previous version of "Shang Rule" in his mansion. Dou asked someone to take it. While reading it, he confirmed the content with Li Yuan.

Two years ago, Dou's illness was seriously ill and almost passed away. Since then, his health has been worse than before. Thanks to slowly recuperating and maintaining his vitality, he will not be sick all day long and look like he is surviving.

She has managed the industry under the name of the Duke of Tang for many years, and has been close to the queen and a group of foreign wives, keeping up with the "trend of the times", so the Li family has made a lot of profits from the wave of industrial and commercial development over the past 20 years.

It is precisely because he owns his own industry that Li Yuan is a supporter of the proposal of King Qi. After half a year of hard work, continuous debate and compromise, the several revised "Business Law" was finally finalized.

Dou is quite familiar with this set of laws. The Company Regulations include various companies by chapter, stipulates the organizational structure of the company, and determines some definitions and concepts.

First of all, the definition of a company is clearly stipulated that "all traders who collect all capital and trade for profit are companies."

Secondly, determine the concept of "legal person".

The so-called legal person, the company law determines that "all companies are legal persons", and determines the legal person status of the company and trading company in the form of a law.

Third, define the responsibility system: the company's responsibility system, based on debt, divided into unlimited liability and limited liability.

The Company Ordinance stipulates that if an unlimited liability company suffers losses and if it sells the company's assets and still cannot repay the debt, the debtor may collect debts from the company's joint venture and shareholders, and pay off the debts under its name.

In other words, the joint venture and shareholders have the responsibility to use their own property to repay the debts owed by the company, which is unlimited liability.

If a limited liability company suffers losses and sells the company's assets and still cannot repay the debt, the debtor can collect debts from the joint venture and shareholders, but the joint venture and shareholders only need to use the company's shares and joint venture money to repay the debt.

If the shares are used up and the debt is still unable to be repaid, the joint venture shareholder does not need to use the property under his personal name to pay off the debt, which is limited liability.

In addition, regulations have been made on the establishment of joint-stock companies, company shares, corporate bonds (registered and unlicensed).

The Merchant Regulations stipulate the meaning of merchants, business scope, business names, commercial books, etc.

It is stipulated that all those who engage in business, trade, trade, and traffic in goods are merchants.

It is also stipulated that men over the age of fifteen can operate business, while women can operate business in legal places.

It also stipulates a series of contents such as the type of merchant (traders, manufacturers, etc.), business apprentices, agents, business intermediaries, manager rights and agency rights.

In addition, there are the Futures Management Regulations, Stock Management Regulations, Bank Management Regulations, Maritime Administration Regulations, etc.

The whole world is gathered together, which is the "Imperially Decreed the Shang Law of the Great Zhou".

This is an unprecedented "Shang Law". From then on, the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce will no longer exist. Emphasizing agriculture and promoting commerce will make it a national policy. Walking on two legs will be the national policy.

The court should promote industry-oriented commerce, drive the development of various industries, absorb more labor, and allow people who have no land to earn money by working to support themselves and their families.

Li Yuan understood the importance of this national policy, but he also knew that this meant a new wave of industrial and commercial development was coming.

The prosperity of the country by industry is a term that has been often mentioned in major debates over this period. The court must rely on industry to strengthen the country, absorb idle labor, produce a large number of products with good quality and high prices, and benefit the people.

At the same time, we must continue to promote the maritime trade and dump the handicrafts and industrial products of the Central Plains on a large scale to overseas countries, thereby driving the development of domestic industries.

A factory, the same product can be sold to overseas markets at high prices, and at low prices to domestic markets. In this way, the factory (producer) ensures profits, traders make a profit, the people get benefits, and the court also gets a lot of taxes, which can be said to have won multiple goals in one fell swoop.

Prosperous industry and active economy mean busy transportation. Countless steamships emitting black smoke, trains that are about to "randomly" east, west, south, and various steam machinery all require a large amount of coal.

The coal mines under the names of the powerful are so busy that they can't rest.

When Dou saw Li Yuan's beautiful expression, he was also happy. Although the emperor started his career in Jingxiang and Huangzhou, he still took good care of the "old people" in Guanlong since he ascended the throne.

The corresponding imperial courts called on coal mines, which was like a cash cow. Depending on the situation, the scale of these cash cows was getting bigger and bigger. People did not need to lend money or worry about running the industry to obtain stable and generous income.

Now, the emperor has reformed the Secretariat, the subordinate province, set up a house of censors, selected seals, participated in politics, reviewed edicts, and participated in the meeting of the Political Affairs Hall, allowing many officials and powerful officials to find spokespersons for interests, and they can compete for and protect their rights and interests through legal systems.

The emperor is indeed a wise lord, so it is better to live longer.

Dou thought so, looking at Li Yuan, full of curiosity: "Sanlang, the emperor... the Political Affairs Hall has legislated legislation for merchants. Will this treatment be too generous?"

Li Yuan heard Dou's implication and smiled and said, "That's not the case. The Great Zhou Rule must also be revised, after all, the situation is different."

"Then...is there any news?" Dou asked directly.

"We should not discuss the government affairs..." Li Yuan pretended to behave, and Dou smiled with his mouth: "Li Pingzhang is so powerful, but the civilian woman knows that she is wrong..."

"Haha..." Li Yuan also chuckled softly. Although he was not a senior official, he was Pingzhang Zhengshi who had the right to vote at the Political Affairs Hall meeting. He could propose a proposal separately so that he could discuss it at the Political Affairs Hall meeting, so he was almost the same as the Prime Minister.

Ping Zhang and the participating political parties in the Censorate can actually serve as spokespersons of many interest groups to fight for their interests. Therefore, Ping Zhang and the participating political parties are very popular, and he is no exception.

The court set up a house of censors, allowing Pingzhang to participate in politics to "speak" for all classes and convey the voices of the people to the court. Li Yuan not only "spokes" for his relatives and friends, but also worked hard for his ambitions.

He was already at the age of knowing his destiny, but unexpectedly got the opportunity to "show on stage" on the platform of the Censorate, so the ambitious Li Yuan was determined to achieve something great.

As a chess player, he plays this big game called "The Dramatic Changes of the Times".

"Shang has been the last of the four people since ancient times." Li Yuan's face became serious, and Dou also put away his smile and listened carefully.

"If there is a business law, then the court cannot favor one or the other. The formulation of the business law took half a year, but it was just a warm-up."

As he spoke, Li Yuan was a little excited: "The Great Zhou Rule needs to be revised. Do you know that this is not a simple revision, but some new content is needed!"

"New content?" Dou was stunned when he heard this, thought for a while, and wondered: "Isn't it just a criminal law? What else can I do..."

Reminding the newly "output" Shangluo, Dou was a little surprised and asked: "Have you added any new law?"
