Chapter 1600 Tang Ren, who taught the monarchs and ministers(1/2)
"Sansi and money shop, who can manage Dasong's money bag?"
Zhao Shu raised this question.
Han Jiang glanced at Zhao Xu, "I will rectify the three departments when I go back, and I guarantee..."
When he saw Zhao Shu's expression, he suddenly became discouraged.
The official's eyes were clearly satisfied.
Separating the financial power from the three departments is in line with the checks and balances requirements of the government.
Han Qi knew this very well. He first secretly cursed Chen An's cunning, and then went out to work and said, "Your Majesty, I think this matter is feasible, but what should the money house should do, and I still have to ask and check it carefully."
Zhao Shu nodded, "Tang Ren is outside, let him in."
The official family attracted Tang Ren, which shows that he was secretly convinced.
Tang Ren came in and said habitually: "I can't help feeling relaxed when I saw the official family's energetic spirit today..."
"Cough cough cough!" Chen Zhongheng felt that this flattery was too inappropriate, and he interrupted the posture of a slander.
Zhao Shu was really relieved when he heard this. After being interrupted, he suppressed his regret and said lightly: "Do you know Chen An's advice?"
"I will know." Tang Ren replied honestly.
"Have he told you about this in advance?"
If you said it in advance, there is suspicion of private operation and a taboo.
Tang Ren looked surprised, "Your Majesty, I have never seen him since I returned from Chen Longtu. That day he came with a large amount of copper coins. I was about to congratulate him on making great contributions in the northwest. Unexpectedly, Chen Longtu turned around and left. At that time, I was wondering why this was rejected by Chen Longtu."
Han Jiang's face turned pale and she said coldly: "So that's it!"
Tang Ren's inadvertent words were linked by Han Jiang, and the context of this matter was immediately clear.
Everyone present was smart, and one of them suddenly realized, and then everyone understood.
As Chen An returned from the northwest, he was planning this matter since he broke the legs of the playboys.
Poor Han Jiang and Sansi were actually buried by the big pit he dug.
Faced with those sympathetic gazes, Han Jiang almost spit out an old blood.
The king suddenly took action hidden in secret, and caught him off guard.
The two young people joined forces to completely defeat the lucky intentions of the three officials.
Zhao Shu was very satisfied and felt that this was a manifestation of Chen Anzhi's proportionateness. "If the Song Dynasty's finances were placed in the money house, what would you think should be done?"
"Why?" Tang Ren's first reaction was not how to do it, but felt that this was a fantasy.
Zhao Shu was even more satisfied and said lightly: "Just say it."
Tang Ren glanced at Han Jiang, smiled with a pleasant smile, and then said, "Your Majesty, I think that the main focus of a country's governance is financial management. The Song Dynasty is so big and the business is flourishing. Now there are fleets that sail overseas and bring back many rare treasures. How can these benefits increase their value?"
"Value-added?" Zhao Shu asked: "Isn't it worthwhile to store it in a money house?"
"Yes, the government is wise." Tang Ren used to show off his horse. "When Chen Longtu proposed to let Sansi store money in the money shop, this is the consideration. However, there are many ways to increase value, such as investment, overseas trade, and businessmen can make a fortune, can we?"
"It is impossible for the North Korean and Chinese to organize their own fleets to go to sea to trade. That would suppress the enthusiasm of merchants to go to sea." Han Jiang immediately refuted Tang Ren's point of view.
"What Han Xiang said is very much." Tang Ren still flattered first, and then said, "But we can invest in the stock!"
Han Jiang only felt something in his mind was broken, and he murmured: "District and invest in the business?"
"Can't it work?" Tang Ren said puzzledly: "Those merchants don't have much capital to go overseas. They just borrow usury and invest money in the court. They don't have to pay it back. They share risks and interests. Who doesn't want to do that?"
He said proudly: "With the big tree in the court, you still have to worry about who will make things difficult for him? Even if there are barbarians overseas who want to embezzle and bully them, just one sentence. This is the fleet of the Song Dynasty's official family. Who dares to move? If you move, you will die!"
He said intoxicatedly: "The Song Dynasty naval army is invincible, who dares to move?"
This is complementary!
The Song Dynasty established a powerful naval army, and it would be rewarded at this time.
Join the merchant?
Zhao Shu thought of his small treasury, but the royal family had already invested in Anxiang. If he invested in overseas trade, would he be too greedy?
This is the difference between the king of China and the kings of other countries.
In the years that followed, the kings looked at the harvest brought by the fleet greedily. Even if it was covered with blood, they still roared ecstatically, and then invested money to let the fleet spread all over the world, using killing to seize wealth and land.
This is the jungle, so these ruthless kings succeeded.
The Ming emperor, who was not cruel enough, failed.
"Your Majesty, the inner warehouse can actually be added." Tang Ren's words opened the fig leaf in the king's heart.
Zhao Shu did not refuse or agree.
This is a good start.
Han Qi was also moved and asked, "But there is any other way?"
"Yes!" Tang Ren raised his eyebrows, "The Song Dynasty destroyed the Western thieves at this moment. At present, only the Liao people are the most powerful enemies. Which side are those vassal congresses on? This is a question. Will the Liao people threaten them, what should the Song Dynasty do?"
Han Qi said seriously: "The Song Dynasty is a country of etiquette, and threats are absolutely indispensable."
Everyone couldn't help but think of the scene where Lao Han threatened the envoys of other countries before, and couldn't help but sigh that the prime minister was indeed thick-skinned.
"Han Xiangyingming." Tang Ren smiled and said, "That's true. But we are rich! For example, Goryeo, their days were very sad the previous year, but would the Liao people lend them money? No, the Liao people are poor and can only wear pairs of pants when going out..."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The ministers couldn't help laughing.
The so-called wearing only one pair of pants means that the Liao people do not wear underwear.
Then I met and talked to people from later generations, "Hey! They said you were in a free time when you went out?"
Tang Ren said: "What if the Song Dynasty borrowed some money to Goryeo? The interest rate was higher, they would still be grateful."
"Lend money to Goryeo?"
Han Qi frowned and thought, "Is it inappropriate to borrow money between countries... Is it wrong to borrow money?"
There are rare precedents of borrowing money between countries, so everyone thinks it is not appropriate.
"Secretary Han, if we encounter a vassal state in the past, we will give it directly, but what is delivered is useless. So I think it is important to distinguish it. What is given is given, and what is borrowed is borrowed."
Han Qi felt that he had seen a smaller version of Shen An talking in the court. He couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and then asked, "What if he didn't return?"
"Don't you return?" Tang Ren couldn't help laughing, even Zhao Shu thought of Shen An, "Secretary Han, the Song army consumes countless money and food every year, what is the purpose of it? The officials thought that in addition to protecting the country and protecting the people, this was their place of use. If they don't pay back the money... then they will come to the door."
Someone said dissatisfiedly: "Just let's go to the door just to not pay the debt, isn't that right?"
"Didn't this turn the court into a business place?"
Everyone is that... they are all gentlemen who are well-read in poetry and books, and they turn the relationship between countries into business, which is extremely inappropriate!
Tang Ren suddenly said solemnly: "For profit for the country, the officials feel the supreme glory!"
In an instant, all the gentlemen were defeated.
This is not the middle and late Ming Dynasty, and there are not many "gentlemen" in the court, nor are they so shameless.
Zhao Shu praised: "What a profit for the country!"
At this moment, Tang Ren's image was extremely tall.
"What if they really can't pay it?"
This question is conspiracy theory, and it is a testament to the test.
This is posing a problem for Tang Ren.
But he smiled and said, "That's simple. Since countries can do business, the goods they buy and sell should not be restricted, right? The officials thought... the territory could also be bought and sold."
Zeng Gongliang was thinking about the Sansi, but he was stunned when he heard this. He subconsciously reached out to support Han Qi's fat waist in front of him.
Han Qi thought he was going to do something, so he subconsciously stepped back.
Zeng Gongliang also skillfully pinched his fat waist.
So the Prime Minister and the Second Minister took a deep breath.
"Buy and sell territory?"
"Can't it?" Tang Ren said: "There are two ways to open Xinjiang. One is to fight, and the other is to buy ***, such as Goryeo..."
Do Goryeo have a grudge against you?
The king and his ministers were all covered in black lines, thinking that if the Koreans knew what they said today, they would probably be together with the Liao people.
"In a word, lending matters can be as small as one family and as big as a country, there is nothing that cannot be borrowed, and there is nothing that cannot be borrowed. As long as the means are superb and money is used as a medium, a country can be overthrown!"
Tang Ren raised his head slightly, and the flattery disappeared at this moment, leaving only confidence.
It turns out that I have real skills!
At this moment, Zhao Shu remembered Tang Ren firmly, "What about expenditure? The Song Dynasty's affairs are all inseparable from the word "money". What is the expenditure?"
This is a big test!
