Of course, Yang Chendong also has his own thoughts on how to give money. He won't do anything pure to give money. How to take the opportunity to pit the northern Ming court is his real intention.
"Brother Xu, is Beiming always short of silver?"
Yang Chendong just said that he would give five million liang of silver. Xu Youzhen was stunned when the peak turned so quickly, but then nodded and replied, "yes, there has been no rich time for silver since the recruitment and training in the northern Ming Dynasty. For this reason, the agricultural tax has been collected three years in advance, which has caused a lot of complaints among the people."
"Hmm? This way of drinking blood from farmers is wrong. It succeeded for a while, but it will only bring greater hidden dangers. It's not the wise man's doing." Yang Chendong disagreed. Emperors of all dynasties know that water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, but few people really do this.
"Yes, all the ministers in the imperial court know this truth, but there is no way." Xu Youzhen shook her head and thought that not everyone has the ability to turn stone into gold like your sixth young master.
I don't know what Xu Youzhen thinks in her heart, and she doesn't have the time to guess these. Yang Chendong once again said, "I remember Beiming didn't want to learn from Wang jianbank before. It was a very profitable business, but why didn't he do it?"
"Hi," Xu Youzhen said angrily, as if she had become a different person "Yes, at the beginning, I saw that the Yang family bank was so popular that it could concentrate all the folk silver. The northern Ming Dynasty also wanted to do it like that. Even this thing was put on the desk of our six Shangshu for a time. However... Before the bank was built, the officials who wanted to fight came in like a swarm. This yamen was short of money and that department was short of money. It was just a reward It's an astronomical figure. If so, I'm afraid they'll take away as much money as they put in the bank. In the end, the matter ended without any trouble. Oh! By the way, Beiming still wanted to make an idea of Yang's Bank at that time. Hehe, it didn't happen. "
"Ha ha ha." Yang Chendong couldn't help laughing when he heard that Beiming still wanted to play the idea of Yang's Bank. He knew this for a long time. At that time, he won the capital defense war with the help of mercenaries, which made some people become wary of rats. Then he went south to play his own name and prestige. The facts also proved that having financial resources but no strength would only become an existence at the mercy of others. Now it's better , with the continuous expansion of the Yang family, even Beiming did not dare to make his ideas casually. Now they can only watch the continuous expansion of the Yang bank, but they have no way to do it.
Seeing that Yang Chendong seemed in a good mood, Xu Youzhen carefully asked, "sixth young master, you can't give this 5 million liang of silver to Beiming Construction Bank."
"Awesome, awesome, brother Xu knows me too." Yang Chen East Africa denies it, but admits it generously.
"Ah! This can't be used. It's tantamount to meat buns beating dogs. Xu Youzhen quickly waved her hands to dissuade Yang Chendong.
Knowing that this was the other party's consideration for himself, Yang Chendong also put on a look of gratitude and said: "I naturally understand what brother Xu thinks. You really do it for the king's good. Only Wang Gang said that the 5 million Liang silver was originally intended to be given to Beiming. It's not surprising that I can't come back. On the contrary, it's appropriate to use the 5 million Liang silver to mess up the economy of Beiming."
"Mess up the economy?" Xu Youzhen looked puzzled.
"Yes, it's just messing up the economy." Yang Chendong nodded and admitted. That is, Xu Youzhen came and saw the strength of Shicheng. He believed that there would be no more in the future. Yang Chendong regarded him as his own person and said without concealing, "Yes, the five million taels of silver is the gunpowder that buried Jiye in the northern Ming Dynasty. Unless they can really make good use of it, otherwise, some people will be blown to pieces."
Seeing that Xu Youzhen still looked puzzled, Yang Chendong sank down and continued to explain, "brother Xu, do you think the problem of Beiming can be solved with 5 million taels of silver?"
"No." Xu Youzhen gave the answer without consideration. It's not that he was too decisive, but that's the truth.
Just as Yang Chendong has a dream, the emperor of the northern Ming Dynasty also has his own dream, that is, to unify the Ming Dynasty and restore the glory of his ancestors. If you want to do this, it is not a five million Liang silver that can be solved, or two, five or even ten five million Liang sent to him. I'm afraid there are ways to spend it.
Yang Chendong knew this, but he just took out a 5 million Liang, which was originally a trap or bait. "Brother Xu, to tell you the truth, the corrupt officials of the northern Ming Dynasty are rampant and the eunuchs are autocratic. There is no way out and no future. The demise of such a country will happen sooner or later. What is different is the length of time, and what is different is how many years the Han people will suffer."
This is the first time Yang Chendong talked about such a big event with Xu Youzhen. At this moment, he also looked serious and quickly digested everything Yang Chendong said in his heart.
"Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and there are few places of peace. The so-called prosperity makes the people suffer; the death makes the people suffer. And the fundamental reason is that the system is wrong, that is, the officials protect each other, that is, the officials do not pay attention to the voice of the people. The development of our Yang family saw these disadvantages, so we tried to change everything, and even want to build a new world. We will do everything we can to transform The northern Ming Dynasty is good. They can be transformed. At least they have the kindest and simplest people in the world, so what needs to be transformed is the imperial court. "
While talking, he noticed Xu Youzhen's facial changes and found that although this person was shocked, he was not very angry. Yang Chendong knew that this person should see his "ambition". At present, he smiled and said: "Just to achieve the goal of transformation, the northern Ming court needs to make more mistakes, so that the people no longer support them. That's the time for me to do it. In order to achieve this goal, the king decided to support the northern Ming Construction Bank and invested 5 million liang of silver as the base. As just said, if they make good use of it, it will be a wealth for development and benefit If you don't use it well, the pit will only get bigger and bigger. Finally, you throw your body in and can't fill it. "
"This... Is this the gunpowder that blew up the foundation of the northern Ming Dynasty?" Xu Youzhen finally understood and said with a surprised face.
"Whether it's gunpowder or not depends on what emperor Daizong did. I sent the 5 million Liang silver. It's up to him to decide whether it's good or bad. Of course, on the surface, the 5 million Liang silver is still not sent or borrowed. Moreover, the silver should be placed in the most prominent position in the Beiming bank so that everyone can see it."
"Why is this?" Xu Youzhen asked with a puzzled face.
"It's very simple. With this 5 million liang of silver, everyone will be relieved when they see it and deposit their money in Beiming bank. This is called the butterfly effect." Yang Chendong said with a smile. Then he thought of the pit he dug for Nanming, that is, to sell their grain at a fair price. Over time, Nanming's grain fields will be abandoned because they are worthless. Once at that time, Yang Department suddenly stopped giving rations to Nanming, what kind of result and scene will it be? It must be a blow to Nanming Don't tie it.
Beiyin Nanliang, this is the big dish Yang Chendong prepared for Nanming and Nanming economically. Once it is really used, it can be imagined how terrible the result will be.
For what Nanming should do, Yang Chendong naturally won't say to Xu Youzhen, but what should Beiming do? He didn't leave a hand at all. Xu Youzhen listened to the cold sweat on her neck and nodded her head constantly in the end.
At noon, Xu Youzhen stayed in Yang's house for dinner, and his sixth wife Luan Xiaoyu came out to accompany him, expressing Yang Chendong's importance to him. In the afternoon, the escort changed into a soldier of the guard and accompanied Xu Shangshu around the city to relax him. According to Yang Chendong, he will prepare for the grain transportation immediately, but it will take two to three days After all, it's time for 200000 people to eat and drink Lazar.
In the afternoon, Yang Si, the logistics division commander, came to Yang's house. Listening to the young master's arrangement, Hu Mang, the commander of the new first army, and Yang Er were accompanied.
Yang Chendong reported a lot of figures in succession, all of which were prepared to be sent to sanbulachuan city. As the starting city of the largest city on the grassland, there was a lot of preparation for necessities such as grain. Only 200000 people ate grain and grass for a month and a half, which was not a big problem.
After Yang Chendong gave the orders one by one, Yang Si naturally nodded and said that he would do it as soon as he went back. He tried to get everything ready in the shortest time, put it in a carriage and transport it to sanbulachuan city. Commander Hu mang on the side saw that he was going to transport grain to Beiming, and he now showed a different meaning, "Young master, as you said, we will have a war with Beiming and Nanming sooner or later. Why should we send them food and grass now? Isn't this helping the opponent and helping him become strong?"
"Well, the first World War is inevitable, but the scale of this war can be carefully studied. Let's say, if we do well, the scale of this war may be very small and negligible. On the contrary, if we do not do well in preparation, the scale of this war will be very large. Even if we win, Nanming and Beiming will be unable to recover. That's true After we stay there, we need to spend more energy to help it develop. In contrast, now is just to transport some food and grass. Compared with what we have to pay in the future, it's really nothing. "The three people in front are people who are very close to themselves. He naturally knows everything and doesn't hide anything.
