The Song army camp, which was spent winter in Zheng County, used coal to keep warm. Although the house was not good, it would not be very cold when wearing thick clothes. Zhao Qian was wearing a military coat and a hat, and did not notice the temperature when writing and drawing on paper.

At this time, all he had been calculating about the income of the Song Dynasty. After listening to his father telling the current financial situation, he became very interested. After using the meridian of the Guantiantai in Kaifeng as the prime meridian, the Song Dynasty determined a set of metric units based on the diameter of the earth. Now all officials adopt metric units, which just happened to determine the weight units inherited before the Song Dynasty.

The traditional Song Dynasty was about 640 grams, and one pound was 16 taels per pound. According to the metric system, one kilogram = two market kilograms = twenty taels. The traditional one liang is about 40 grams, and the metric system is 50 grams.

Theoretically, the Song Dynasty was a copper coins of one thousand cited coins, but in fact, the Song Dynasty was a common one hundred and seven hundred and seventy cited coins. Under the metric system, it was calculated completely based on a one thousand cited coins of one thousand cited coins. The money was exchanged for one or two silver.

Zhao Qian spent a lot of zeros on paper, which made him have to count carefully every time. But there was nothing he could do. The number Zhao Qian wanted to calculate was too big. Zhao Jiaren and Zhao's official family brought about 300 tons of silver and 100 tons of gold from Japan every year. One ton of silver = one thousand kilograms = two thousand kilograms = two thousand kilograms = two thousand kilograms = two thousand kilograms. 300 tons is six million kilograms. The ratio of gold to silver is about 1:10.100 tons of gold equals one thousand tons of silver, 20 million kilograms.

The two combined are 26 million taels of silver. It is calculated based on the relatively harsh 20% reserve, and the amount of money that the Song Dynasty can issue is as much as 150 million taels per year.

According to my father, the reserve system must be issued in conjunction with national deposits, but in fact there is not so much issuance. However, after twenty years of accumulation, the amount of money that the Song Dynasty could issue was as high as 3 billion yuan.

After calculating the money that my father had as the bottom of the box, Zhao Qian carefully calculated several times. He tore off the paper full of zeros and burned it. Seeing the zeros burned to ashes with the flames, Zhao Qian felt that his heart beat faster. According to statistics, it is said that the population of the Song Dynasty has now reached 100 million. In the past, an imperial guard had a monthly salary of three guan, and 36 guan a year could support the family. The 3 billion guan in his hand, an average of 100 million people, each person could get 30 guan. His father Zhao Jiaren unknowingly saved such a huge sum of money, and Zhao Qian felt that his father was simply a monster.

Of course, as a water conservancy expert, Zhao Qian also knew that the money could not be calculated like this. Theoretically, the Song Dynasty now had about one billion mu of land, and each mu was a constant land tax of one billion coins per year. This was actually impossible. The imperial court could actually receive 500 million coins per year, which was considered burning incense.

But looking at money as equivalent exchange, just these 3 billion real money and silver are circulated, for example, if it can be circulated twice a year, it is 6 billion currency flow. What a huge transaction this 6 billion flow means.

The Song Dynasty established that the Duke of the Great Song Dynasty was 100 kilograms of rice and 2 jin of rice. Six billion jin of jin of jin of jin of grain, which is 3 billion jin of grain, and 30 billion jin of jin of grain. On average, a person is 300 jin of grain. Although he is not full, he will not starve to death. What's more, farmers will leave their own food before putting the annual harvest into the market. They cannot sell the grain and starve themselves to death. This means that the annual production volume of the Song Dynasty is much larger than the actual transaction volume. My father held the right to use the 3 billion jin of jin of jin of money to allocate various surplus commodity transactions. No wonder the imperial court spent so much, and my father Zhao Jiaren was still not anxious or impatient when he saw it.

After thinking about it for a while from this perspective, Zhao Qian's somewhat exhausted thoughts unexpectedly turned back to himself. He got ten million guan. If each of those big clans had so much money, how many big clans could he support if 3 billion guan was paid?

This level of calculation does not require paper and pen, so Zhao Qian got the results by relying on mental calculations. Three hundred schools.

If a large clan had 10 million guan, the 3 billion guan in his hand could only support 300 families. This number happened to be the number of richer families among the Jinshi family ruling the Song Dynasty before the Lin'an General surrender.

Zhao Qian shivered a lot. He felt that this calculation made him feel chilled all over, and his body was uncontrollably shivering several times. His father's words sounded in Zhao Qian's heart, "The so-called literati and official families ruled the world probably means that the wealth of the whole world was divided by such a few people."

Looking at the back of his hands, Zhao Qian saw that every pore was standing up, and his hair looked like a thorn on a hedgehog. If the three billion stakes served all the people of the Song Dynasty, it would actually only allow everyone to not be hungry, have clothes to wear, and buy some daily supplies. That's all.

But if the money was monopolized by the wealthy families, it would only support 300 families. But what about those people? How did they live? Before the Lin'an General surrendered, the court truly realized that the literati and official families would rule the world together. Then what?

Not far away, Zhao Qian no longer felt the impact and joy of 3 billion shoals. The greater sense of threat made Zhao Qian feel that his breathing was a little uncomfortable. It was very similar to the feeling of being dived for a long time. As the air in his lungs was consumed, the sense of crisis and uneasiness became stronger and stronger.

My father said that the collapse of all dynasties begins with the collapse of finance, and the establishment of all dynasties is also based on a system that effectively maintains finance. What I want to inherit is a powerful court, and master the most powerful force on the earth at this time. But standing on such a high mountain, the endless abyss can be seen more clearly.

We must never let those rich families monopolize wealth. Countless times in history have proved that when the regime was destroyed, the families that sucked out the regime's finances betrayed the regime they should have allegiance without hesitation. Those who are still fighting for the regime that are about to settle down are the middle and low-level officials who have no money. But they are empty-handed and have no effect except for vain shouting and tragic burial.

The more I thought about it, the more I became more uneasy, so Zhao Qian simply stood up and went to find my father. My father Zhao Jiaren was easy to find. He probably worked and worked every day. When he was at home, if his father was not in the study reception room, he would probably be tired of being with his mother. Seeing the cordon set up by the guard regiment, Zhao Qian was sure that his father was having a meeting with the generals of the army. He went to ask if he could go in. The cadres and soldiers of the guard regiment immediately rejected Zhao Qian's request.

Zhao Qian didn't blame them at this time. These people were undoubtedly absolutely loyal to Zhao Jiaren. With them, the safety of his father can be guaranteed.

At this time, Zhao Jiaren didn't know that his son was outside, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. After two previous meetings, Zhao Jiaren showed up with these generals. Since things happened, there was no need to drag it down. Zhao Jiaren already had someone to deal with, so he was even more unwilling to drag it down meaninglessly.

Looking at these generals with different expressions, Zhao Jiaren said calmly: "I would like to emphasize again that if you want to have the opportunity to make a lot of money, take off your military uniform and go to various companies to learn to be a manager. If you manage well, you will never have to lose any bonuses. If you can't do it well, you can only blame yourself for not being able to do it. If you still want to stay in the army, the current situation will definitely not work."

The generals and officials all know that the Zhao Guan family will not talk lies, and they will not be punished without being taught. Correspondingly, if you move in the direction pointed out by the Zhao Guan family, don’t shout regrets. You will not turn around and jump to the hole you dug.

"Officials, those civil servants are now in the same way. If they let them do whatever they want..." Song Huchen, the chief senior in the army, spoke.

Zhao Jiaren didn't even want to look at Song Huchen. This guy might have his opinion of loyalty, but this guy is the one who Zhao Jiaren really wants to be dismissed immediately. Of course, the army is used to suppress the traitors, but the power to determine who is the traitor is not decided by the troops themselves.

However, at this time, we cannot deal with this guy and a group of ecstasy guys, and wait until the guys who are thinking about the troops are out of the army before talking about it. Zhao Jiaren smiled and said, "Of course I won't let go of those things, but at this time I will solve the things that everyone cares about first. Not seeing the future will make people despair. Helping everyone see the future first, and not worrying about the failure of those civil servants, let's talk about the destruction of those civil servants."

After saying that, Zhao Jiaren looked at the generals again, "Our Song army is a country's city and has a reputation that cannot be slandered. If we stick a little to the edge of business, wouldn't the army become a thug hired by business people? How could the reputation we have accumulated over decades be so unwilling to be smeared by people. It is human nature for everyone to want to live a wealthy life. It would be strange if they don't have such an idea. So I asked everyone to make a decision and want to get rich, take off their military uniforms. The army is not a place to make money, but a very hard place. It's time for you to make a decision."

In silence, Li Yun and Yang Tiexin spoke almost at the same time: "Report..."

Seeing the collision, both of them paused. Yang Tiexin made a gesture and asked Li Yun to say first. Li Yun continued: "Official family, I want to stay in the army. It's over."

Yang Tiexin followed and said, "Official family, I want to stay in the army. It's over."

With these two speeches, the generals found that they had hesitated less and less. Many people were confused. In fact, what everyone hoped was to stay in the army and have a great say in other departments under the jurisdiction of the court. However, the Zhao official family had already explained that this idea could be relieved. The army could not interfere in other departments, but even the previously vague judicial power would be taken to the court.
