Chapter 807

"Junshi, according to my opinion, Han Zihua is not the kind of crazy person. What are you going to do? It's a dead end to force him into a dead end. You'd better give me a brief explanation, otherwise...huhhh!"

Sima Guang couldn't help but shudder. He thought that with his master's temper, Wang Ning'an would be furious if Han Jiang did such a thing. Then he led the big guys to wipe out all the gentry in Hebei, and also promoted the Jinyuan. Then, peace in the world is the only one.

But it didn't seem like that. The master was not angry at all and even asked himself to review first. Sima Guang was inevitably afraid.

So... Junior Brother Lu and Junior Brother Zhang, don’t blame Senior Brother for being unfaithful, I have no choice!

Sima Guang pondered for a while and then explained their plans to Wang Ning'an... Gold, copper, and silver, are different. There are not many places of origin of gold, so it is easier to control.

At present, two sources of gold in the Song Dynasty, one is the Western Regions and the other is the Japanese, all under the control of Wang Ning'an. Others cannot get in, and Wang Ning'an will not allow them to intervene.

This means that gold is a monopoly business!

Since it is a monopoly, we must pursue the maximization of interests. This is everyone’s instinct!

Wang Ning'an has many talented people, and no one is a waste of money. Of course, everyone can see the potential of gold.

Sima Guang plans to first adopt gold settlement in bulk transactions. In principle, these golds only flow within the bank and play a pricing function.

Just this one is amazing enough!

Compared with copper coins, gold has too many advantages, and it can also bring interest by depositing money in the bank. In addition, although the aristocratic families are strong, the banks belong to the emperor and the imperial court. Who can be more safe than the Royal Bank?

Merchants have their own small calculations. They settle through the bank and of course they have to pay taxes, but the problem is that deposits have interest, and taking interest can offset some taxes. After all, it is more cost-effective to use the bank.

This is exactly the effect Sima Guang wants to achieve. He wants to include all bulk transactions into the banking system. First of all, the jobs of the aristocratic families were smashed.

Secondly, Sima Guang planned to raise the price of gold and silver and degrade the price of copper.

Currency represents purchasing power. They hold gold and aristocratic families hold copper coins. The increase in gold prices is equivalent to reducing the purchasing power of copper coins in disguise.

The Song Dynasty minted more than 5 million coins every year. In recent years, the supply of copper materials has increased, and the number of coins has increased wildly. If you rely solely on the people to buy some buns and fried dough sticks, or pull a piece of cloth and buy a few kilograms of salt, how much can it be consumed!

Most of the copper coins in the Song Dynasty were used for commodity trading, and many copper coins were exported abroad to capture commodities from other countries.

Especially after the money shortage eased, the Song Dynasty took out 2 million guan of copper coins every year and went to Nanyang and Tianzhu to purchase. Every time the merchant ship made a fortune.

Wang Ning'an thought a little about it and knew the consequences of the means.

"Junshi, with your talent, you won't just use these two moves, you will definitely be punished to death. Tell me, where is your killer move?"

Sima Guang lowered his head, "Master, my disciple plans to launch unporous coins to replace the copper coins on the market."

Poreless coins!

Isn’t this just a slaughter?

Wang Ning'an's eyes widened and said to himself, Sima Junshi, you are so cruel!

Every move is digging to the ancestral tomb. No wonder Han Jiang is trying his best!

If it were yourself, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to bear it!

These three moves are equivalent to turning the copper coins in the hands of the aristocratic family into a pile of waste.

It is impossible to settle, and it is gradually withdrawing from the market, and even small commodities cannot be purchased. And it is also watching the price reduction shrink, I am afraid it is not better than Lingchi!

Wang Ning'an, who was facing Sima Guang's big forehead, was really a bad guy who wrote about Zizhi Tongjian! There was something in his mind!

Sima Guang was trembling all over when his master stared at him, so he had to say, "It is Master's idea to promote the Jin Yuan... Moreover, the gentry in Hebei is not the same as us. It is better to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to destroy their wealth and completely clear the aristocratic families left over from the Han and Tang Dynasties. It will be much easier to implement reforms in the future. What does Master mean by this?"

"Not what!"

Wang Ning'an said angrily: "Junshi, if you are different from us, then you are the enemy. There are too many enemies in the world. Have you ever thought about it? Who will be the first to be harmed if you continue to push this?"

"This..." Sima Guang was stopped.

Wang Ning'an continued: "Of course, the aristocratic families will suffer losses, but they have rich backgrounds. They can still maintain their land and business if they have lost money, and they can still maintain their own business. The poor people who are really likely to go bankrupt!"

Speaking of this, Wang Ning'an suddenly remembered the third brother's derelict money operation. Oh my, isn't that the case! In the name of dealing with corruption and embezzlement, the end of the trouble, and countless common people were ruined, the public was resentful, and the entire economy collapsed.

The people went bankrupt and refugees were everywhere... With Sima Guang's wisdom, he would not be unable to see this. Then why did he dare to do this? What confidence does he have? Are you not afraid of resolving the score with him?

Wang Ning'an thought about it for a few times and suddenly slapped the table!

"Damn it!"

Sima Guang was so scared that he shivered, "What advice does Master have?"

"I'll ask you, Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun, have you been venting your anger? What are the ideas you three have made? Come and bring me a real idea!"

Sima Guang was really scared this time. He was trembling and thought to himself, two junior brothers, this is not my brother betrayed you, but my master guessed it, and I can't do anything about it.

"Master, we have indeed discussed it. According to their ideas, even if some refugees are in trouble, they can just go to the Western Regions, or to Bohai Kingdom and Japan. In short, the sky is vast and the earth is vast, and there is land everywhere...Master, please rest assured that it will not shake the foundation of the court!"

"Pooh!"

Wang Ning'an spat Sima Guang fiercely, he was furious!

Good boy!

You even took out the trick of "sheep eat people", but you are really my good students. Master's skills have been learned. It's amazing, it's amazing!

"Is it so easy to develop overseas? What the Western Regions are now absorbing gold diggers. Those who can go to gold diggers, at least they have some wealth and wealth. Faced with a bad situation, they can still deal with it. If a group of bankrupt people are brought over and they are bare-handed, what can they do? Isn't it still a waste of life?"

Seeing that the master was angry, Sima Guang blushed.

"Master, I admit that your worries are right, but if you don't do this, how can you push the immigrants? If you have a little way to move the land, you will not be willing to leave your hometown. It would be good if you rely on interests to attract or subsidies from the court. There are so many people in the Song Dynasty and too few immigrants, you will soon be filled by new people. Why can't you push the tax on Fangtian? Isn't it just because you have a lot of people and aborted land? Only by quickly driving out a large number of people and destroying the wealth of the aristocratic families can you get the land at a low price, so that the court can reshuffle the tax and establish a new set of rules!"

Sima Guang felt a little aggrieved when he said this, and his eyes turned red.

"Master, my disciples have selfish intentions, but I think that this is really for the long-term consideration of the Song Dynasty. The number of people who moved out may die, but it is already very good to survive and spread overseas. As long as you can persist for one or two hundred years, the world is my Han family! Master, you have been working hard all the time, isn't it just for this situation? You can't bear to start, and the disciples are willing to take responsibility for the Master. No matter how many infamous there will be in the future, let the disciples bear it! Master, be kind and do not control the troops, and do not manage the finances. The reforms of the Song Dynasty have reached this point, and only great destruction can be established! Master, the disciples' painstaking efforts can be seen day by day, please observe it!"

As he said that, Sima Guang bowed deeply and bent to ninety degrees.

Facing the proud disciple, Wang Ning'an was so angry that he didn't know how it happened at this moment.

Sima Guang was right, and Wang Ning'an could hardly refute it.

Because what Wang Ning'an said above is exactly what he thought, he is also planning to follow this routine to promote immigration, overseas expansion, and allow the Han family to spread all over the corners of the world.

But it's too inappropriate to do it at this time!

"Junshi, you sit down first."

Sima Guang nodded and sat opposite his master. He only dared to put half of his butt, and was still in fear.

"I know your mind, but the timing is wrong and the approach is too aggressive."

Sima Guang bowed slightly, "Please give me advice."

"If you want to destroy the aristocratic families in Hebei now, they have to fight to the death. Stop the prince from getting married and win over the queen is a move they use."

Sima Guang nodded, "Indeed, Han Zihua wants to win over Empress Cao is a good choice... but he made the wrong plan. His Majesty is still alive. Now he wants to use the harem to interfere in politics. They are seeking death!"

"So now they are attacking Empress Cao with all their might, openly fighting and secretly protecting." Wang Ning'an took a deep breath, "Because of this, even if Empress Cao doesn't want to stand on their side, she has to join forces with these people in order to protect herself. Things are very bad!"

Sima Guang did not expect that someone would help him and would make Han Jiang's bad moves survive.

"Master, then your Majesty will not take action? Can he watch Empress Cao defeat the new king?"

Wang Ning'an shook his head, "Jun Shi, there are some things I didn't want to say at first. Originally, Doctor Qian estimated that His Majesty would have a few months to live after the New Year. He told me that in autumn, all things wither and human vitality would also decline. Your Majesty should not be able to survive the next autumn. In short, there are nearly ten months left, so it is time to hold a wedding for the prince and lay out a political affairs hall. But..."

"Master, is there something wrong with Your Majesty's health?"

"Um!"

Wang Ning'an nodded and said, "I got the exact caution. In fact, the day after seeing me, His Majesty was about to take action, deposed Empress Cao, demoted her to a commoner, sent her to a commoner, and reunited with the Cao family. As a result, His Majesty suddenly fell ill and fell into a coma all day, and the matter was delayed!"

Sima Guang was very scared. He didn't know even if he was in the Political Affairs Hall or the Palace. A few months ago, Zhao Zhen was still full of energy at the birthday celebration. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the dragon body actually reached this point!

"No... Master, I don't know yet, how did Han Jiang know that the dragon body is worrying?"
