"Does other people who have read it have no signatures mean that they do not agree with the view of this document?" Fang Shiyu looked at everyone in confusion and asked out loud.

Yu Xin said: "There is no signature. Mr. Zhao, Minister of Personnel, Minister of Works, Sun Xian, Minister of Justice, and Yang Jing, Minister of Justice, have not signed it in the name of not rejecting, disagreeing, or not supporting it!"

After Yu Xin finished speaking, Fang Shiyu put down the document and asked, "So, does the Ministry of Rites have different opinions?"

Wang Jun, Minister of Rites, said: "Report to Your Highness, this move is exhausting the people and causing money, and has caused great wars and wars for years. I may be an unknown sign."

Fang Shiyu shook his head and said, "I don't think so. The bandits, horse bandits and other bandits have seriously affected the local security issues. If they want to eradicate them, they should use thunder to achieve it once and for all. There are countless bandits, horse bandits in the country. If one day they all unite to resist the court, it will be a major concern of the court!"

"I'm just asking me just today, Yu Xin, what is the budget of the Ministry of Revenue for this matter?"

We have done it in all dynasties to eliminate bandits, but they did not do it thoroughly enough. The Ming Dynasty had just experienced huge turmoil, and many bandits who became bandits and occupied mountains and kings.

He gathered thousands of people, ran rampantly, bullied the market, and those who did not argue with the court and did not disobey the court, have never dealt with them in all dynasties.

And today, Fang Shiyu doesn't think so.

They dare not rob the court's things, because they fear the court's army, and they robbed civilian merchants. This matter has to be considered.

They robbed, gained nothing for nothing, and robbed them for no effort. There were still many people behind their backs, including destruction of their families, and numerous casualties.

Selling your wife and daughter will not lead to a good end.

Isn’t the bandits who are mainly loyal to each other?

"Your Highness, if you really want to eliminate bandits throughout the country, you have to invest at least about three million in military expenditure every year, and it will take at least five or even ten years to completely eliminate it!"

Yu Xin said firmly.

Since the incident in the Duke of Wei's Mansion, the court's actions of sending troops to suppress bandits have allowed Yu Xin to see a new big event. There are so many bandits in the country. They robbed their families and robbed them, and did not engage in production or pay taxes.

And those merchants who communicated with the economy and transported materials from all over the country, and the people who digged food in the fields suffered a lot when they met them.

If we can crack down on the bandits across the country and let the bandits, bandits, and horse bandits disappear and disappear in the world of Ming Dynasty, isn’t this considered to benefit the people and millions of people?

Fang Shiyu nodded and said, "Can it be completed in ten years?"

Fang Shiyu began to know the power of this era, and even Fang Shiyu did not think about completely eliminating bandit troubles.

It would be great to reduce these bandits by 70% or 80% in ten years of crackdown.

Even achieving this result is not an easy task.

Yu Xin said: "In ten years, there is no problem at all. It's just that Weichen and Minister Yang of the Ministry of Justice have considered it for a long time, but they have not found a suitable solution!"

Fang Shiyu asked in confusion: "What's the matter?"

"When it comes to the bandits caught, how to resettle them, you can't kill them all," Yu Xin hesitated. If the court kills them all, the matter will spread, and bandits from all over the country will be enthusiastic about resisting.

Moreover, this was also a loss for the Ming Dynasty.

How many bandits are there? It’s almost the same if there is no 100,000. What’s wrong with these 100,000 people, and they all kill them? It’s not that the court is short of food.

The court was just short of money, but it was really not short of food.

Fang Shiyu said: "Xiao Liuqiu, do you know?"

"Overseas Fujian, Xiaoliuqiu Island near the Penghu Islands?" Ru Wei, the Minister of War, looked at Fang Shiyu with a serious expression.

"Well, the place there is not small, enough to support more than 2 million people, and Jeju Island can all be used as an exile place!"

"All the bandits arrested, bandits and other bandits, according to the extent of their sins, exiled them overseas. Those who do more evil will be exiled to Jeju Island, and those who do less evil will be exiled to Xiaoliuqiu!"

Fang Shiyu made up his mind that he had originally considered exiling the arrested bandits to Liaodong for reclamation.

However, the weather in Liaodong has become colder and colder in recent years. I don’t know how many years it can be cultivated, but it is still not suitable for large-scale immigration there.

After all, with a large population and a reduction in grain production, we will go hungry. The imperial court is about to move its capital, and Liaodong is the top priority, so it is absolutely necessary to make mistakes.

After Fang Shiyu finished speaking, Yang Jing said, "Your Highness, if you are exiled, I am afraid that the officials who are trying to make small moves."

"It's okay, everyone is going to be exiled. If they want to come back overseas, it will not be so easy for them to come back!" Fang Shiyu shrugged.

What can local officials who are trying to determine the case?

It is nothing more than ambiguous temptation in the exile place and the exile period. However, since they have been exiled overseas, do they want to come back?

Will it be that easy?

"By the way, the Ministry of Justice counts the number of people in prison and wait until the time comes, let's exile together." Fang Shiyu waved his hand. Xiao Liuqiu, which is the later Taiwan Province.

There is no power there, and there is not even much human footprint. It is a treasure land of young girls that is completely waiting for the Ming Dynasty to develop.

Zhao Mian said: "Your Highness, where should we make up for the annual expenses of 3 million taels?"

"Fill it up?" Fang Shiyu was slightly stunned, and then asked: "Yu Xin, how is the grain sold in the Ministry of Revenue? How much treasure money has been collected?"

"The Ministry of Revenue sold 4.3 million stones of grain, 50 million and 37.5 million dou, and recovered a total of 130 million, gold, 1.27 million taels of silver, and 8.9 million taels of silver."

"Isn't this coming out? There is no point in the fact that so much grain is piled up in mold in the imperial court. From now on, grain is sold three times a year from granaries in various places. Every year, grain is sold for one month in the early spring, grain is sold for one month in the summer solstice, and grain is sold for one month in the winter solstice! The price of grain is set at a dou of rice in Shiguanbaobao! "

A dou of rice is almost the same as a pound of rice in later generations.

Everyone nodded. The court collected the grain rent from the people and then sold it to the people. This was a very profitable deal.

Fang Shiyu said: "No, why did you take back so many yellow and white things?"

Fang Shiyu's heart moved. He remembered that the food transaction was to ensure that he could only exchange treasure money for food.

Gold and silver have been interrupted by the court, and the only currency recognized by the court is the Daming Baochao.

"This is the cause of the rare treasure banknotes. In more than ten years, the imperial court has printed more than ten million treasure banknotes, but as the purchasing power of treasure banknotes recovered, the imperial court recovered more than ten million from last year's tax."

"More treasure money have been kept at home, or have been wiped out for various reasons within ten years. Now the court has taken back 50,000 treasure money, and there are huge gaps in the treasure money circulating on the market!"

Yu Xin was blunt and said that the court was still very fast to take back the treasure money.

"Because many wealthy families want to buy food, the court only recognizes treasure money for selling grain. As soon as officials from all over the country put together, they wrote to the Ministry of Revenue, hoping that the Ministry of Revenue could hook the treasure money with gold and silver, so that wealthy businessmen could exchange gold and silver for treasure money for gold and silver!"

Yu Xin shrugged, this is how these yellow and white things come from.

Otherwise, if so much food and the treasure money in the entire Ming Dynasty were plundered, it would be impossible to get so many treasure money.

"How did the Ministry of Revenue respond?" Fang Shiyu's eyes were frozen and he stared at Yu Xin.

"If Your Highness wants to interrupt the circulation of gold and silver, he naturally uses gold and silver to exchange treasure banknotes, but treasure banknotes cannot be exchanged for gold and silver."

"The governments in various places have kept a large amount of treasure money for local people to exchange. How much gold and silver is there, it must be sent to the capital as scheduled!"

Yu Xin admitted frankly.

The entire Ming Dynasty can see the rise in the purchasing power of Baochao, and the value of Baochao has been confirmed. Many merchants also choose Baochao for trading when trading.

After all, this thing is easy to carry and hide. Many officials even choose Baochao when accepting bribes. After all, Baochao has a ten-year window.

It is relatively easy to justify yourself.

Fang Shiyu nodded and said, "What is the exchange rate given by the Ministry of Revenue?"

"One tael of gold is compared to twenty taels of silver, and one tael of silver is compared to one thousand guan of treasure banknotes, which is close to one stone of grain." Yu Xin said, and this exchange rate was completely researched by him after more than half a month.

The calculation of the one-dot ten-stone treasure money that the imperial court set for food was calculated step by step

Fang Shiyu nodded and said, "Well, it's not bad. How much gold and silver does the Ministry of Revenue have now, and how much treasure money does it have?" It seems that he is not going to print money, but just thinking about the plan to collect private treasure money, and he is going to declare bankruptcy.

"The court swallowed 50 million treasure money in one breath. There will inevitably be a terrifying shortage of treasure money in the market. This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the market economy. Although it cannot be broken, it cannot be missing."

"The national treasury has 290 million guan treasure banknotes, and the governments in various places have reduced 200 million guan treasure banknotes, which are scattered throughout the country. The Ministry of Revenue has 4.6 million taels of gold and 23 million taels of silver."

Yu Xin just finished speaking.

Zhao Mian, who was next to him, instantly widened his eyes and said, "Yu Xin, you are so unrestrained, so much money? Will the court have so much money?"

Twenty million taels of silver. When Zhao Mian was the Minister of Revenue, 20 million taels of silver was mostly taxed in the entire Ming Dynasty.

At present, the taxes from various places have not yet entered Beijing, 20 million taels of silver and 4 million taels of gold.

Compared with the purchasing power of two golds, four million taels of gold is eighty million taels of silver. This huge amount of money and the total amount of national taxes in one year may not reach such a terrifying height.

Fang Shiyu said: "Yu Xin, tell me!"

Yu Xin said, "Among them, according to the price of grain, the court originally sold 500 million stones of grain and goods, and had to collect 500 million coins of treasure money!"

"The treasure banknotes flowing among the people are less than 100,000 yuan. In order to ensure the circulation of treasure banknotes and the sale of grain, the Ministry of Revenue used treasure banknotes to exchange them with wealthy private businessmen for a large amount of gold and silver!"

"This is only temporary. As time goes by, a large amount of gold and silver from the people pour into the treasury, which will naturally lead to the scarcity of yellow and white things among the people."

"The court used treasure banknotes to exchange gold and silver on one hand, and grain for treasure banknotes on the other hand. Finally, in the first half of the year, the court had moved a large amount of gold and silver into the national treasury!" Yu Xin said casually, without any panic.

It seems that in his eyes, such a result is right and normal.

"Well, the Ministry of Revenue has done a good job in this matter. We need to remember the merits. Yu Xin, the new Daming Baochao, and how are the abrasives made? Can we achieve anti-counterfeiting?"

Fang Shiyu waved his hand. The court had taken back so many treasure money, so he would definitely revise the treasure money, and then increase the efforts to promote the treasure money, so that it would be best to make the treasure money the only goods circulated in the Ming market.

Become the only goods circulated in the Ming market.

"According to Your Highness's intention, the abrasive tools have been made, and the anti-counterfeiting level is far higher than the existing Daming Baochao. As the anti-counterfeiting methods are rising year by year, we guarantee that every time the imperial court revision can make it more than ten times more difficult to imitate the Baochao!"

Fang Shiyu said: "Your Majesty's portrait is a bit better. In addition, the Ministry of Revenue will study it and use silver and gold to make coins and copper plates, with His Majesty's portrait on it.

There will be one hundred sets of gold and silver each. In the future, monarchs of all generations can make hundreds of sets of their own collection of avatar coins. They can not do it, but they cannot exceed the amount."

"First make your Majesty what you have, the Ministry of Revenue will print the new version of the treasure banknotes according to the amount of treasure banknotes collected, and burn all the treasure banknotes after the statistics are completed to prevent them from flowing out!"
