Chapter 711: There are Thieves in the Country
Ye Hua's plan is not complicated. He wants to issue paper money to solve the deficit in the treasury. However, the problem is that under the current conditions, even if there is sufficient gold and silver reserves, the risk of issuing currency is still very high, which is likely to cause currency depreciation, soaring prices, and all kinds of terrible consequences will fall on the people, which Ye Hua cannot accept no matter what.
So he launched the stock market and bond market, hoping to guide the currency into the preset pool. However, this plan cannot be clearly stated. There are few fuel-efficient lamps in the court and the government. If the court wants to make a fortune, they also want to make some money. Once these gods get in, the stock market may be ruined.
After thinking about it, there is only one way left to go. First dig a big hole for them and teach all officials a lesson so that they can suffer, and then things can continue smoothly.
Of course, Ye Hua also thought that it would be a good thing to scrape off a layer of oil and water from all officials and make up money to reward the meritorious soldiers.
Anyway, he didn't plan to make friends with the officials. He cheated them once and there was no burden at all.
Seeing that the plan was successful, all the officials were trapped. They could not write it or not... How much salary did the court pay, how much did you spend to buy stocks, where did the money come from, and whether you can explain it clearly... Ye Hua seemed to be able to hear Chai Rong's sharpening sound.
But at this moment, Li Yu jumped out!
This surprised Ye Hua!
Speaking of which, Li Yu has taken a very strange path in recent years. He first became a military officer of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and completed the transition between civil and military affairs. Then he went to Kaifeng Prefecture and became a judge. He cleared up unjust, false and wrong cases while he was in office. He made great achievements and was praised by the people as the Grand Master of Qingtian. He was evaluated by the Ministry of Personnel and was all excellent.
According to common sense, Li Yu could send the prefect or enter the Censorate. However, this guy got angry again and insisted on taking the court exam. He entered the Hanlin Academy. He is now a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy, second only to Li Si.
From a slaughter of embroidered clothes with blood on his hands, he turned into a noble Hanlin official. This guy jumped from a mud pond like ink to a pure and pure holy land.
It is equivalent to running from hell to Lingxiao Palace.
Many people cannot accept such drastic changes. They try to find fault and make Li Yu look ugly.
But unfortunately, in terms of talent and knowledge, Li Yu crushed them. In terms of malicious hands, this guy came from the embroidered messenger, who could beat him!
Until now, many people were surprised to realize that Li Yu had completed the cultivation and tempering, just like a magic sword, about to be forged, and they were just waiting to kill people in blood!
"Shidu Li, don't say anything first. I just want to ask you, stocks... have you bought them?"
"No!" Li Yu said frankly: "I have never bought a stock, and I have no spare money at home... In fact, in recent years, prices in the capital have soared. I can only eat and drink with my meager salary. Zhujing has to weave silk at home every day. After a year, I can sell two or three pieces of silk to get through the New Year."
When Chai Rong heard this, he nodded slightly, "As far as you can say, your life is very hard?"
Li Yu said: "Your Majesty, being an official is a hard work. I think that if every official lives a comfortable and comfortable life, the world will be destroyed!"
"Hahaha... I seek honor and wealth for the official, and seek to be a wife and son for the general. My ministers live better. My king and father are also glorious in their face. Li Yu, your words have passed!"
Although Chai Rong criticized her, her smile became brighter and seemed to be encouraged. Li Yu was even more courageous, "I call Your Majesty that all officials are for the emperor's herdsmen. If a family is used as a metaphor, the king and father are parents, and the people are children... Officials are in the middle, and they are daughters-in-laws! If there are in-laws above, they should be filial and take care of their children. Thanks to their children, they should not be good at both ends. In a family, if the daughter-in-law is radiant and smiles happily, either they will lose money or treat their children slowly. The so-called way of being an official is to do a good job of the wife!"
“Bold!”
As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, Zhao Shangjiao couldn't wait to scold him, "Li Yu, you use a woman to compare all officials and a small family to compare the country. You, you have bad intentions! It's a disgrace to be gentle!"
The people present were still afraid of Ye Hua, but they were not afraid of Li Yu at all. On the contrary, they treated Li Yu as a punching bag and asked them to write the investment amount just now, but no one dared to write it. This made them very embarrassed and just cursed Li Yu to relieve their anger.
Therefore, everyone came up and attacked Li Yu together, saying all the bad words.
Ye Hua felt more and more laughing when he heard it, and he laughed out loud.
"Don't make a noise!"
Chai Rong shouted muffled, and the officials shut up. His Majesty's eyes swept across everyone, and his anger was beyond words.
"Ye Qing, what were you laughing at just now?"
"Your Majesty, I heard from the people in the market that a woman can stand up to five hundred ducks. With her previous posture, there were no less than tens of thousands of ducks in the court. Therefore, I think what Li Shidu said is not unreasonable, and the court officials are like daughter-in-laws!"
"You are presumptuous!"
This made Mr. Zhao so angry that his beard was so high that he wanted to curse Ye Hua. But then he thought, isn't this just right?
The old master could only cry to Chai Rong: "Your Majesty, the so-called scholars can be killed but not humiliated. Li Yu and Ye Hua humiliated me in every way. If Your Majesty does not make the decision for me, I will stand in the court without any face and ask for my wish!"
Zhao Shangjia took out a trick to threaten resignation. Following him, more than a dozen officials stood up. If Li Yu is not dismissed, they will resign together.
What a great show of forcing a palace.
"Li Yu, you have aroused the public's anger, but what are you saying?" Chai Rong asked in a deep voice.
Li Yu was not afraid, "Your Majesty, I don't think I've said something wrong. On the contrary, Zhao Zhongcheng and all the lords... Do you think you are too high? You don't farm or weave cloth, but you are all rich and gorgeous clothes, and have high positions and powerful positions. I want to ask, where do you wear clothes, rice, houses, and carriages from? In the final analysis, it is the support of the people. In this regard, the people are your parents of food and clothing. But you regard yourself as the great master of the Qingtian, as the official of the parents, and always say what scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are, and what scholars can be killed and not humiliated... Everyone said this, but you can't say it!"
"Li Yu! You are also a scholar, don't go too far!" Zhao Shangjiaohong roared with his naked eyes.
"It is precisely because I am a scholar that I understand that we have read a few more books than the people and can write a few words. What's so great about it?" Li Yu said contemptuously: "Some people think they are superior and extraordinary. They don't have enough salary. When they see where there is oil and water, they want to make a fortune. In recent years, the Saint-Garbine's expedition has been like flowing water. The expenses of each department are incredible. How much money is there really used in the knife?"
Li Yu's voice increased eighth, "The stock market was established to enrich the treasury. Some unworthy people rely on their well-informed knowledge to make money and make a living. If this continues, how can the stock market last for a long time? You guys, aren't you still dare to ask for money? "
What a clever Li Yu, even Ye Hua was shocked.
nǎinǎi, this grandson also walked around himself, but he couldn't say that he was wrong... OK, so many years have been so hardened!
Something is good!
It seems that Li Yu alone can defeat all officials without taking action.
Ye Hua looked like he was watching a show.
Li Yu asked all the officials and did not give them a chance to refute. He directly said to Chai Rong: "Your Majesty, I beg the emperor to issue an order that all officials are not allowed to do business. As for the officials' wives, children and parents, they are not allowed to operate shops directly. In addition, when purchasing, we must avoid suspicion."
Li Yu mentioned the last point and felt heartbroken, "I told Your Majesty that in the past three years, the number of road construction, war and military supplies has exceeded the total of the past years. Many people rely on their kinship with the responsible officials to get news in advance, take the lead in taking the initiative, raise prices, and save money from war. According to my estimate, at least more than 30% of the treasury expenditures have been wasted. I beg Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly!"
Li Yu was still talking about it, but just this was already shocking. Many people heard the sound of thunder. They only had one thought, what a Li Yu, how dare you expose this? You are too bold!
Including Ye Hua, he also knew that all officials must have acted corruption, but after all, they were not in the capital, so they could only calculate many things. Li Yu was not the case. When this guy was embroidering the wardrobe, he knew these things. Over the past three years, he had been influenced by the officialdom and had a thorough understanding of the officialdom.
In order to recover Youzhou, war bonds were issued and military rations were purchased, but a deficit of tens of millions of stones was caused... This time the war lasted longer and cost more. The officials had learned to be smart and no longer directly misappropriate and resell... Instead, they sold it to specific merchants in the form of buying pounces.
After making a profit, they will be transferred to their hands or transferred to a commercial workshop opened by officials' relatives.
This is very hidden, even if you want to check it, you can't find it clearly.
This was a secret that many people dare not tell, but Li Yu uncovered it all.
Those officials were no longer just afraid, their faces were ashes, their bodies were trembling, and their foreheads were covered with cold sweat!
Chai Rong's anger had already rushed to the top of his head. He finally understood why so many officials were involved in the stock market just launched, and everyone was generous.
It turns out that during the period when they left Beijing, they made a lot of money and had no place to spend money. They finally broke out of the stock market, but they threw it into it.
I can treat the 300,000 cavalry as if nothing is left, but I can't help but face the thieves in the country!
This is my minister!
"Retreat!"
Chai Rong squeezed out two words from his teeth, but these two words made his lover's heart fall to the bottom of the valley, and it was a bad thing!
Chapter completed!
