Chapter 718 Old Lai Yehua

Zhao Da was still immersed in the joy of punching a censor... There is nothing in this world that fists cannot solve. If one punch doesn't work, then just punch two!

"Aren't businessmen collecting debts? Just rely on the debt, or go to search the house. Anyway, officials invested in the stock market and ordered them to come out, and everyone admitted to paying them. I lost so much money... hundreds of thousands of yuan!" When Zhao Da thought of the money, he felt so distressed. Maybe he would never see so much money in his life.

"You made a mistake." Ye Hua said: "It's nothing that officials buy and sell stocks. The key is that their money is not right and cannot stand the investigation... And you also need to know that officials rely on the foresight to buy stocks and make big money, which is equivalent to infringing on the interests of all shareholders. Rich merchants, landlords, wealthy families, and large families. Although they have close relationships with officials, they are not a family after all, and all the benefits are taken away by officials, and the merchants do not do it."

Zhao Daruo thought, "So that's it. I thought it was Your Majesty's will!"

Ye Hua chuckled, "Although the imperial edict is useful, it cannot make it snow in summer and thunder in winter. After all, you have to act in accordance with the heavens... Excluding officials is equivalent to maintaining fairness in the stock market, at least on the surface, so you see that when officials admit compensation and withdraw from the stock market, more and more capital flows into the stock market, making the stock market lively."

"So that's it!" Zhao Dada said: "Then if you say so, it won't work to just rely on the debt?"

"Well, if you force it down, the prestige accumulated by the court over the years will be gone, and all the money and coupons on the market will become a pile of waste paper!"

“So serious?”

Zhao was stunned. He was considered a famous general at least. After a few rounds of thought, he said helplessly: "Since that's the case, you can only pay back the money... By the way, haven't you issued paper money? Use paper money to pay off your debts!"

Zhao Da seemed to have found a good way to save his life.

"The banknotes are not valuable, so you can give as much as you want. Even if you owe more money, you won't have to worry about it." Zhao Da said happily. As soon as he finished speaking, his brother Zhao Er walked in from outside, followed by Ye Xi and Ye Xi, two small tails.

Zhao Er took out a handful of candies from his arms and placed them in front of the two little guys.

"Senior brother decided to give you twenty yuan candies every day. What about you? You can eat up to ten yuan a day. The remaining ten yuan is written for you. With this IOU, you can exchange ten yuan for your senior brother's men at any time."

The two little guys listened carefully, Zhao Er took out the paper and pen, and wrote an IOU for them. The two little guys were like babies, storing them in their pockets on their chests.

Zhao Er said again: "If one day, my senior brother doesn't have a piece of candy and only gives you an IOU, what will you do?"

Ye Xi rushed to say, "I will exchange the candy cubes!"

"Then how much do you want to exchange for?"

"Ten yuan, we can only eat ten yuan a day!" Ye Qing answered honestly.

Ye Xi disagreed, "Of course, I have all exchanged it!"

"Why, we can't eat that much?"

"But we can save it and keep it for later!" said Ye Xi, "Senior brother, gave us ten dollars the day before, but there was nothing the next day. Do you know if he has any candy, of course he needs to redeem more insurance because... he has no credit!"

...

Zhao Er smiled and patted his junior brother's little head. He is really worthy of being the son of the Female God of Wealth. He is so smart!

"Look at it, brother, your brain is not as useful as Ye Xi!"

Zhao Da rolled his eyes helplessly. Anyway, every time he came to the Ye family, his IQ would be discriminated against. It turned out that he was crushed by Ye Hua, and later by Fu San... According to this trend, Ye Xi and Ye Wei would soon crush him. By that time, only Ye San could play with him.

Not OK!

Ye San was also a ghostly spirit. Zhao Kuangyin was distressed. He said pitifully: "Mr. Marquis, why don't you give birth to a few more, I will only look for those under five years old!"

Zhao Er was speechless. This elder brother was so useless. He pushed Zhao Da aside and said worriedly: "Master, the situation is very bad now. If you don't pay back the money, it will inevitably shake the credit of the court... But once you pay back the money, there is not so much gold and silver in the court. Even if there is, you can't take it out. You can only pay back the banknotes!"

Zhao Da listened patiently. Isn’t this his own way of sayings? There is nothing new. But Zhao Er’s next words made his elder brother look at him with admiration.

"If we pay too much banknotes, it is equivalent to giving the knife to those merchants... In my guess, they will not invest in any field, they will only use it to run the bank!"

Zhao Da finally understood. He was angry and slapped the table hard and stood up suddenly.

"Who gives them the courage? I dare to run the bank, and I will send troops to protect the bank immediately!"

Zhao Er said coldly: "Brother, do you protect the bank, where is the stock market?"

"Stock market? What does the stock market have to do?"

"Brother, you are so stupid!" Zhao Er said: "70% of the money in the stock market comes from bank loans. If the bank is unstable, they will definitely sell it wildly and withdraw it from the stock market. After all, ordinary people dare not owe money to banks."

"Also, those ordinary people who deposit money in banks will join the bank run. At that time, ten years of hard work will be used to completely collapse, and countless people will lose their money... The workshops related to banks will suffer a catastrophe! Even those meritorious soldiers will suffer their interests!"

When Zhao Da heard this, he was stunned and speechless... In his impression, the most complicated thing was to decide the outcome in front of the formation.

From food, supplies, to strategizing, formulating tactics, mobilizing troops, and finally fighting in the last battle... This is the most difficult thing in the world to grasp.

But after my brother’s explanation, why does it seem like a small loan is countless times more difficult than fighting a war!

Neither left nor right!

What should I do?

He couldn't help looking at Ye Hua, wanting to get an answer from his mouth.

"Mr. Marquis, you may not have been paying attention, right?" Zhao Da's tone was exaggerated.

Zhao Er also stared at his master. To be honest, he came to tell him about this matter because he had received information. The merchants were fully prepared and wanted to compete with the court!

In the past three years, Chai Rong went to the West and Ye Hua was not in Beijing.

There were no two people who could save the scene, and only Wang Pu was left. Although he worked hard and tried his best, he could only barely maintain it.

In a word, there is no tiger in the mountains, and monkeys are called kings.

Three years have been enough to make some people forget themselves. They think that the capital should be theirs, the imperial courts and civil and military officials are just tools for them to make money.

Now, I suddenly don’t say anything about both tigers.

It also launched the stock market and bond market, and issued paper money in large quantities... It is unbearable!

The officials can't stop you, so we will take action personally!

Currency issuance right!

Even more important than the control of the army!

It is definitely the core of a country.

In the era of metal currency, due to the limited currency that the imperial court could control, its financial resources were very weak... Even taking the richest Song Dynasty as an example, the annual income of over 100 million yuan was over 70% of which were physical objects, and the amount of money that could be used was only tens of millions of coins.

After deducting military expenses, officials' salaries, and river engineering and city defense, there is basically nothing left. In the event of a disaster year, you will have to pay back!

Therefore, the ancient major projects basically required the people to do free work. To be honest, they were built with white bones!

When the situation arrived at the Great Zhou Dynasty, the situation changed. Whether it was Ye Hua or Chai Rong, they fully understood the importance of currency and spared no effort to search everywhere. During the war or major projects, a large amount of currency would be placed to alleviate public grievances.

The monetary means reach the extreme are paper money and credit currency!

Once this hole is opened, it means that the court can solve financial problems through unlimited amounts of currency... As for merchants, it becomes a delusion to use loans to restrain the court.

On the contrary, the court can also dilute their wealth by issuing more money.

In short, the appearance of paper money has reached the point where it has to fight!

Zhao Kuangyin didn't understand this principle, and Zhao Er knew only a little.

But Ye Hua knew that he had been preparing for this for a long time.

"Master, do you really have a solution?" Zhao Er said curiously.

Ye Hua smiled and said, "Of course there is a solution, but this method is not very kind, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, our opponents are not a good thing!"

Ye Hua said: "You just keep staring and see how many methods they have. When the time is ripe, I will take action."

Obviously Ye Hua was unwilling to reveal the mystery now, and Zhao Er knew that he could not ask too much. If the secret was leaked, it would not work! Zhao Er left, and Zhao Da shook his big head in a daze and went to find Ye San, "From tomorrow, uncle will teach you boxing! Your family, that is, you can reassure uncle, no one else can deal with him."

...

Turning around, Ye Hua appeared in the cabinet. At this moment, several important officials were still under investigation at the audit temple, especially Xu Xuan, who was most involved. Li Yu had already sorted out dozens of charges. Wei Xianmei even pointed out directly that when Xu Xuan issued the debt, he obviously acted as a merchant from Jiangnan and signed a letter of almost humiliating the country.

The court's loans were actually higher than the interest rate of private short-term loans, which was simply outrageous!

"Mr. Marquis, what are you going to do?"

The only remaining old minister, Fan Zhi, was worried. He couldn't handle such things last time, so he gave Chai Rong an idea to give Chai Shouli apologies, but was driven out of the capital.

This time it was Ye Hua's turn, so how could the old husband not worry?

"Mr. Marquis, now you are all old ministers. You are the backbone of the big guy and the pillar. You have to make an idea."

The big guy Fan Zhi mentioned naturally refers to the old ministers of the previous dynasty. With Wei Renpu's rescinding, Fan Zhi felt that the older generation had less time and could not train a qualified successor. He could only ease his relationship with Ye Hua and rely on him to take care of the big guy.

"Mr. Fan, we are old friends, I might as well give it to you... I don't plan to pay back the debt, and there will be no money left!"
