Song Beiyun

"Based on this, they actually have ten years of Liao's taxes in their hands." Miao Yan laughed beside him and said, "It's really rich. Even the Xu family in the Song Dynasty didn't have the ability."

"Damn it!" Fo Baonu thumped hard on the wall: "These moths!"

"This is a moth?" Miao Yan chuckled: "This is the money they get from eating sheep and eating people. This money is obtained by annexing land and buying and selling blood and sweat. Now you know why Song State encourages business but suppresses businessmen? The thing is the capital I told you during the day, and capital doesn't care about 21."

"How to punish!?"

"I don't need you." Miao Yan chuckled lightly: "I'm afraid we will see the outcome tomorrow, and after three days, this group of people will definitely cry."

With resentment, Fo Baonu signed a ban that had been drafted long ago, and this ban has nothing to do with the jade market, that is, "gifts between officials at all levels shall not exceed the value of one hundred guan."

In the early morning of the second day, this ban was officially implemented. There is no reason or basis, but it belongs to the ranks of political correctness, even if there is a one-size-fits-all suspicion. information.

As soon as the ban was announced, countless sellers suddenly appeared in the market. This obviously organized behavior sold more than [-]% of the jade, jade products and rough stones in the market in a short period of time. .

And this sudden sell-off was followed by countless retail investors, who flocked to major trading houses to sell jade.

But... Song Guo Chamber of Commerce stopped buying after yesterday. In their words, they just can't stand such a toss. Now they will just clean up the original inventory and never trade jade again.

One family refused to trade, while the others accepted it, but when they saw that the Song Guo Chamber of Commerce refused to accept it, they began to lower the price normally.

But with this price reduction, the price of jade in the market began to drop instantly, and it was a kind of uncontrollable drop. By the afternoon, some small-scale businesses could not hold back and began to join in continuously. Selling armies.

All of a sudden, the entire jade industry plummeted and closed, and the high prices began to fall like an avalanche in an instant.

And at this moment, the Jewelry Store of the State of Song, which had been closed down for a few days, reopened. Because it was a state-run jewelery store of the State of Song, before there was any domestic news, the price would not care about external changes, and would still be based on the price before the jade soared. Price for sale.

At this time, more and more people began to sell because they could not withstand the impact. Those big merchants started protective recycling in order to protect their own interests. It lasted for an afternoon and it was completely unbearable.

The rich people in Liaoxin Capital are in a mess, but Xiao Song is sitting in the garden of the palace with his children fishing for koi bought by Buddha and Baonu with a lot of money, and Miao Yan is sitting next to him peeling chestnuts. , peaceful and peaceful.

"I'm afraid Song Guo Commercial Bank will make hundreds of millions this time?"

"Dare!" Xiao Song stared: "If they really dare to do this, then whether to change people or not is secondary, and their heads will fly. Are they destined to earn this money?"

Among other things, it is impossible for an emperor in the world to watch this money flow into the hands of other countries. What is this?This is tantamount to handing over Liao's taxes for more than a year.

Xiao Song doesn't think his face can be greater than a country's taxes.

To put it bluntly, this jade bubble that caused countless people to jump into rivers and buildings was a rectification movement within the circle that the emperor of Liao Kingdom himself acquiesced to.

Want to take the money in the circle out of the circle?Then use these hot money to harm Song State?The emperor of any country would not agree to it. Money is a tiger, and if it is released, it must be suitable for people.At that time, don't blame Song Beiyun's subordinates for being merciless.

"I set a red line for them." Xiao Song said while coaxing the child: "Basically leave hundreds of thousands or millions of them as hard money to reward this group of people, and the rest must be scattered in this circle. How to distribute the money is their business."

"Like the richest man in Xihong City?"

"Yes." Xiao Song nodded and said, "While we need to deal a head-on blow to the nouveau riche in the Liao Kingdom, we must also convert the money into other labor and productivity, otherwise the money will be a disaster everywhere."

Although the economy is not Song Beiyun's main business, after all, he has experienced a lot and got in touch with it a lot, and he actually has a deep understanding of these things.

From the current point of view, if there is no special reason, what Fo Baonu is interviewing is the agents of those big family dealers in the court. If there is no accident, now his water-made Anu is hitting people with a bench.

Because the scene is too violent, children generally need to avoid it.

At the same time, several leaders of Song Guo Chamber of Commerce were squatting in front of stacks of banknotes, smiling like flowers.

A few managers below took the lead and said: "President, we have made a fortune this time."

"Get rich?" The president smiled and took out a piece from the top layer of the bundles of money: "Take out one hundred thousand hard-earned money, and another one hundred thousand to distribute to your brothers, and the rest I will break the leg of anyone who reaches out for money."

"President, so much money... don't you remember it at all?"

A trusted buddy said with a bitter face: "There are so many."

"Little bastard!" The president slapped him on the head: "We are destined to spend this money? You can grow your brain!"

Of course, although the avalanche happened now, it should last for several days, and the current money is not the final guarantee, but if there is no accident, they may have to deal with hundreds of millions of funds this time.

"By the way, go outside and post a notice! It is said that the Song Kingdom Commercial Bank saw that many people in the Liao Kingdom were suffering from the war, and specially funded them to buy fields, seeds and livestock. I will go to the palace tomorrow."

Chapter 577: Sunny December 2, Five Years

Song Beiyun's return date is approaching, His Majesty the Liao Emperor said nothing, but he is always very clingy in private, if outsiders see it, it will be difficult to separate His Majesty who is such a pestering emperor from the emperor who hits people with a stool in the upper study Your Majesty combine.

After all, the price of jade is in an avalanche, and the businessmen who have nothing to return can only look at the pile of garbage in the warehouse and want to cry. None left.

The old money dreams of the nouveau riche in the Liao Kingdom were finally shattered. Not only did they not become the nobles who had longed for a long time, but they were beaten badly by the emperor who was as angry as a lion. When they went to court, they all made excuses to say that they stumbled and fell, their houses collapsed and other lame reasons, but everyone else knew in their hearts that this group of people made mistakes that they shouldn't have made, and His Majesty didn't say anything on the surface. But in private, they beat these people black and blue.

In addition to the physical pain, what makes them die even more is that the money they have tried and done in the past few years is gone, and what they get in exchange is a lot of trash that can only be seen but not eaten.

Of course, the value of those things is still there, even much higher than the previous price, but the cost price is there, and they have put in an average of one hundred jade Buddhas, and now a catty of jade is twenty What is it?

But at this time, the envoys of the Song Dynasty also came to make things difficult for others. They also selected a few people to meet His Majesty the Emperor of Liao today.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of Daliao, the Chamber of Commerce of the Song Dynasty is thinking about the brotherhood between the two countries. In addition, Daliao has suffered both natural disasters and military disasters in the past two years. The Chamber of Commerce has voluntarily donated materials and money equivalent to a total of More than 220 million crowns. Later, thinking that many people in the Liao Kingdom suffered from having no land to buy, the Chamber of Commerce of the Song Dynasty was even more willing to convert the donated money into land for His Majesty the Liao Emperor and donate it to the landless people in the name of the Daliao Emperor. .”

More than 8000 million guan... This is higher than the total taxation of the Liao Kingdom last year. There are no real idiots in this temple. Donate money and materials at this juncture?And the amount is still so huge, if they still can't realize who cut them a wave of leeks, they have really lived on dogs all these years.

But the Song State Chamber of Commerce's move is really beautiful. First of all, they did not swallow the money themselves, but relieved the urgent need for the Liao State, and dispersed the huge funds instead of turning them over to the state treasury.

The advantage of doing this is that it can avoid the taboos of the government and the court, and it can also prevent corruption to the greatest extent. In the end, it is the peasants of the Liao Kingdom who get the benefits.

Fo Baonu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the haze on his face gradually dissipated, and then he gave Song Guochao a very high evaluation and awards in front of everyone in the court hall.

This award is to be made into a plaque and hung at the entrance of the chamber of commerce, which is undoubtedly the biggest gold-lettered signboard.

But the rest is nothing, why?Fo Baonu is not stupid, right? There are not many businessmen in the world who are good people. The Song Guo Chamber of Commerce can do this kind of thing.

To reward is also to reward your own men, these people are not worthy.

But no matter what, this is a one-year tax, and it is unreasonable not to give something, so Fo Baonu then asked the Ministry of Households to grant the Song Dynasty caravan a five-year tax-free authority.

Of course, if you reward outsiders, you have to punish the gang of wine bags and rice bags under your hands. Fo Baonu made these people kneel in the palace gate until dark, in addition to fines, demotions, dismissal Jue and so on a series of punishment.

In fact, they also knew that they were wrong. No one thought that their colleagues could secretly hoard so much money. They thought that it would be a big deal if they collected millions or tens of millions from three or five households.

But who would have thought that each of them is doing this...

"Hiding wealth to the people is not how to hide it." Fo Baonu lost his temper with several prime ministers and the kings of the North and South Courts in the upper study: "Look at the people under your hands. The combined civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty have more money than the national treasury. This is called hiding wealth from the people? The more oil and water they have, the more difficult the life of the people below will be. If the people are poor, the emperor’s head will be hung in his pants! Don’t say anything, everyone in the list will be fined for one year and cut Go to the first-level title to punish you for the crime of laxity."

What is there to argue about?The matter has been revealed, and those people have a huge amount of property whose source is unknown. Do they dare to explain the source of the money?None dare!Speaking out is the crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the clan, even if the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu come, they will not be able to keep them.

Although Fo Baonu didn't intend to continue to investigate further, but this point must not be confused, because although the emperor is only a small punishment this time, if there is a next time, he will definitely bring it out and kill everyone.

"It's hard to be a family member without being deaf or blind." After Fo Baonu let those important officials leave, she leaned on the desk and said to Han Ji who was waiting beside her: "I know the meaning of Song Gou's words, alas ..."

Why did Fo Baonu not want to come to a massacre, but Song Beiyun tried his best to prevent her from killing, because the involvement of this incident was beyond her imagination. If she started to kill chickens and monkeys now, the monkeys in the future would become more and more serious. It is not a good thing to become more sophisticated and alienated from the emperor.

Now it's time to punish the guards secretly, as long as there is an explanation to the officials and the people, the rest doesn't need to be too excited, and there will be times when she has a headache in the future.

"I really want to keep that dog thing." Fo Baonu rested his chin on one hand, and unconsciously stirred the soup with the other hand: "If he is willing to stay, it will be so much more worry-free."

Han Ji lowered her head and used it as a tree hole. Her role is here. Although there are a million people in her heart who don't want Song Beiyun to be left behind, she can't have any opinions at this time.

The more Fo Baonu thought about it, the more annoying he became, because Song Beiyun was leaving for Chang'an in a few days, and he didn't know how long it would be before seeing each other again, so it was very annoying.

"Why are you so worried." Fo Baonu sighed: "Sometimes I wonder what would happen if I locked him in the palace."

Han Ji was startled, and raised her head in astonishment.

"But think about it, just think about it, it would be strange if he didn't give Liao Kingdom to me." Fo Baonu sighed again: "It's so annoying, so annoying, so annoying!"

After finishing speaking, she flicked her sleeves and stood up, Han Ji stepped forward immediately, and Fo Baonu turned to look at her and said: "You have made so much money with him, why do you still treat him like you don't care?" ?”

Han Ji immediately took a step back: "Don't dare..."

"That's all." Fo Baonu waved his hand: "He is indeed not a person that ordinary people can like."

When Fo Baonu was melancholy, Xiao Song was also worried. He looked at his son in the cradle and liked it more and more. He wished he could just take him away, but this is the prince of the Liao Kingdom and the future of the Liao Kingdom. The foundation of this thing is about to be taken away. Song Beiyun has no doubt that His Majesty the Emperor of Liao Kingdom can directly send troops to pacify Chang'an City.

"It's so annoying." Xiao Song was lying in front of the cradle while teasing the little thing inside, and said to the wonderful words next to him: "You find a way."

"What can I do?" Miao Yan didn't even look back, and was assembling two wooden boards: "How far is the glass craft now?"

"Hey, don't talk about glass when you're so sad, okay?"

"It's not that I'm sad, I'm not sad at all." Miao Yan shook his head and said, "Okay, give me a confirmation letter quickly."

"Don't count on it. There is no vacuuming process now, and there is no way to make tungsten filaments. Save the light bulb."

"Mercury is enough for vacuuming, and carbon wire is not suitable for tungsten wire!"

Xiao Song shook his head: "I've tried everything, the electricity is fine, but it can only be electroplated. There is no stable voltage to play ass."

"I have a task for you." Miao Yan put down the things in his hands and turned around and said, "Don't do anything this year, and raise the industrial level to the level of 1600."

Xiao Song was taken aback: "Elder sister, your requirements are somewhat high."

"Aren't you going to leave in a few days? Let's make a list in the next few days."

Miao Yan's categorical decision made Xiao Song sigh silently, he knew that his plan of being lazy and playing tricks had failed again.

In normal history, it is the end of the Age of Discovery. At this point in time, the slave trade, the gold rush, and the great geographical discovery all crowded together. Europe took advantage of this shareholder trend to develop rapidly and gradually replaced the East as the center of the world. Whether it is technology or culture, it has opened up a large part of the East.

Regardless of cultural aspects, the most prominent technologies in this period in the field of science and technology are the development of navigation, shipbuilding, astronomy, geography, mathematics, physics, chemistry, medicine and biology.

None of these things exist and develop independently, and their combination is the embryonic form and framework of modern science.

Then make a list, Xiao Song thinks that three to five days is not enough, and if it is implemented, three to five years is not enough.

Since it is not enough, we can only overtake in curves. The five fields of metallurgy, minerals, geology, astronomy, and agriculture are still the core, so this year we should focus on chemistry.

First of all, this is Xiao Song's old line of work. Before that, its ability could not be fully developed, so after the first five-year plan, now is the time for the extensive development of chemistry.

In chemistry, in fact, we all know that it is about the products of drugs, weapons, etc., but in fact, as a basic subject, chemistry permeates every aspect of life.

For example, for entertainment, the principle of the phonograph is to mix ferrous iron and ferric iron compounds and then magnetize them to preserve the environmental sound effects at that time.

There are also things like agriculture, not to mention, after all, chemical fertilizers are something that has already been put on the plan.

The rest, including petroleum products, metal smelting, ore screening, extraction, etc., are of great use.

"Then click on the chemical technology tree." Miao Yan said after a while of silence: "When the external situation is relatively stable, let's try to climb the technology tree."

Chapter 578: On February 2, five years, Qing sighed that the weather was not beautiful

Fo Baonu remembered that the last time she cried so sadly was the day she ascended the throne and proclaimed herself emperor, but this time she was able to cry when she gave away a dead dog.

Song Gou left after all, it was probably helpless, because he seemed very reluctant. Before leaving, he cooked a lot of meals and prepared many small toys for the child. The night before he left, he held the child alive and well. , looks rather pitiful.

But in the end, we still have to go, just like the wonderful words to persuade Buddha Baonu, everyone has a mission when they come to the world, Song Beiyun finally embarked on the path of fulfilling the mission, and he must not be reborn because of these things. Become that person who eats and waits to die all day long.

Of course Fo Baonu understands, but if he is not willing to part with it, he is not willing to part with it, even when the great truth comes.She didn't understand why, if Song Beiyun was not Song Beiyun, but a dog attached to her, then with her own temperament, this dog should have died long ago.

The problem lies in this, the more powerful Song Gou is, the more reluctant she is, but because he is so powerful, it is impossible to stop in one place.

He still has a lot of things to do, he wants to actually make those cowhide that no one is optimistic about.

This process may not be as turbulent as the Jin Ge and Iron Horse, but the Jin Ge and Iron Horse cannot save the Central Plains Dynasty.Perhaps not as startling as the ups and downs of the officialdom, but the ups and downs of the officialdom cannot cure poverty and weakness.

What can really save a country or a nation is never militarism or just talk, but real benefits, such as 280 catties per mu changing to 820 catties, and the difference between two cities arriving in one month becomes three days and then three In one hour, a family goes from eating ten catties of meat a year to being able to eat ten catties of meat every month, and finally becomes one catty of meat per person per day.

This is something that will take hundreds or hundreds of years to achieve, but no matter what, there must be the first person to take a step forward, right?

Therefore, the love of children cannot affect Xiao Song's fireball after all. He is more reluctant than anyone else, but he also knows better than anyone that there are some things that cannot be left to him.

Xiao Song in the carriage was depressed, and frequently lifted the curtain and leaned out until he could no longer see the shadow of Liaoxin Capital.

There is still [-] miles from the capital of Liaoxin to Chang'an, and it is only [-] miles in a day if it is full.This slow speed made Xiao Song's heart blaze, and this time he went back to find a way to shorten the time on the road.

"Little fish."

"Here, Mr. Song."

While resting and drinking horses, Xiao Song sat in front of a fire and baked a piece of cake while saying, "Say, there are only two of us, what will we do if we meet bandits?"

"My lord, please don't worry. Before I set off, I ordered people to say hello to the bandits and bandits along the way. They didn't dare to move. Those people from the rivers and lakes..."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yu burst into laughter, and her red lips parted lightly: "The mob."

Xiao Song gasped, Xiao Yu's demeanor at that moment just now was extremely like Dongfang Bubai.When he mentioned people in the Jianghu, his expression was contemptuous, just like Song Beiyun's contempt came from his bones when he heard someone boasting that his father was a county magistrate.

"Come on, brother has a discussion with you." Xiao Song waved to him and said, "Come here."

Xiaoyu leaned over and sat beside Song Beiyun, looking at him curiously.

"I want to discuss it with you, and give me the entire martial arts leader Dangdang."

"Martial arts leader?"

Xiaoyu blinked his eyes, his face full of bewilderment.A place like martial arts is also equipped with a leader?What are they?

"I heard that everyone in the martial arts world has a nickname. Is there such a thing as a peerless knight? The kind with extraordinary kung fu."
