Chapter 275
If I act according to the emperor's regulations, I will not be hated by others in the future, but the object of many people's curry favor!This errand will be the envy of many people!

With a result in his mind, Liu Mao was overwhelmed with joy and joy, and his energy suddenly became more energetic than before, as if he had just done that demon thing and absorbed the energy of many people. General spirit.

"Your Majesty's talent, I can't keep up with ten thousand horses!" Liu Mao bowed deeply and played sincerely.

If it was in the past, he would never have believed that such an idea would have been thought up by the emperor himself. This is really a whimsical but very effective method.

But at this time, after the emperor successively created the Daming Central Bank, Daming banknotes, and Daming Royal Cement Company, it seemed logical to come up with such a Daming Road and Bridge Company.Except for the emperor, it is really impossible for others to think of it.

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help laughing when he heard about his 400 horses.He accepted it frankly.He believes that he has more than [-] years of knowledge than these aboriginal people. If you want to talk about this talent, if you don't talk about poetry and painting, you must be much better than them.

After a little bit of complacency, Emperor Chongzhen explained: "After Liu Qing goes back, he will investigate and see where it is easiest to start building. Then the road planning must be done well, and it must be estimated based on the flow of people and the possible future flow of people. , and the north and south are separated from each other. I have a sketch here, please take a look and make changes according to the actual situation."

After speaking, he took out a piece of rice paper from the imperial table, handed it to the eunuch next to him, and asked him to pass it to Liu Mao.

Liu Mao took it and saw that there seemed to be two roads side by side, with arrows on them, one south and one north opposite.There are also carriages, trees, post stations, fences and so on painted on the road.

Daming's official road at this time has trees planted on both sides, so passers-by won't be exposed to the sun in summer.However, many things in this picture are still not available.Liu Mao looked at it strangely and carefully.

After a while, Liu Mao had a complete grasp of the meaning of the sketch, and could not help but bow and said: "Your Majesty has already made thorough preparations, and I will definitely build according to this drawing, without any deviation!"

After a pause, he said with admiration: "I really didn't expect that the post station can make money for the court like this. It's really amazing!"

"I didn't intend to earn this money!" Emperor Chongzhen said unexpectedly after hearing this, "Although the local government and the imperial court divide the fees charged, a certain percentage of the money must be used for the construction of other local roads. My purpose is to follow this method for the main roads, and those roads with fewer carts and more people will also need to be repaired, but there is no need to charge, and they can be built normally to benefit the local people."

Speaking of this, he immediately added: "I mean, before the local roads are built, it must be announced and let everyone know."

Communicating in advance, all parties know about it, and they all understand that it is beneficial, and the work will naturally become active, and the road construction project will go much smoother.

Liu Mao understood this and nodded immediately, feeling a little excited in his heart, wishing he could start this matter now.

Seeing that he understood, Emperor Chongzhen finally confessed: "If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. If people are united, Mount Tai will move."

When Liu Mao heard it, he pondered in his heart and couldn't help but praise it. These twelve words immediately revealed the key point of today's discussion.He bowed again, looked up at the emperor, his eyes were full of reverence: "I have Your Majesty in Ming Dynasty, it is really a blessing for the common people!"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen just smiled.In this day and age, under the power, it is still very simple to do some things.For example, for the manpower needed to build roads, the government only needs an official document.

For now, the construction of roads can basically only be carried out on the original official roads.The so-called "opening roads across mountains and building bridges across rivers" is too huge a project, and it is a hard bone. It has to be moved back, first easy and then difficult.

Seeing Liu Mao exiting the palace with joy on his face, Emperor Chongzhen could not help but turn his attention to the ongoing share auction. How is it going?

This is actually a demonstration meeting, and many things will be carried out according to this in the future.This model can bind some powerful people as much as possible, which is why the shares have to be bought one by one.In addition, it is an easy way to mobilize private funds, at least for Daming at this time.

He turned his head to look at the sky, two hours had passed, it was time for lunch, there should be some news, right?

Just thinking about it, I saw a servant enter the hall excitedly and said: "Your Majesty, only 30 shares were sold at the auction, and 30 taels of silver have been obtained, which is nearly [-] taels a share."

During the speech, the floor was full of surprises, 30 taels a share, really valuable!

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen shook his head dissatisfied when he heard this, and said, "Why is it only 30 taels? How many people bought the [-] shares?"

When the servant heard this, he was slightly taken aback, thought for a while, and immediately replied: "Return to Your Majesty, there are about 20 people."

That is to say, one person bought [-] shares. How did they achieve the upper limit of individual shareholding stipulated at that time?
Suddenly, Emperor Chongzhen understood that this first auction was really a mistake!The most powerful group of people in Ming Dynasty sat there and cast their eyes, who dare not show face to them?
This is a cheap sale of state-owned assets!

Thinking about it this way, Emperor Chongzhen was a little upset!You use your power to take advantage of it.Well, in this world of Ming Dynasty, is there anyone more powerful than himself?
Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen immediately ordered: "Drafting the decree, the auction of shares is a major national event, how can it be so hasty. Reorganize the responsible household department and auction it according to my regulations!"

In fact, before the auction, Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, had already come to ask for an order. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen didn't think too much about it, so he followed the folk auction method that Bi Ziyan had heard, and did not interfere much.

Now he refuses to accept his account, and makes an order to proceed again, throwing the blame on the Ministry of Accounts, and no one can say anything. After all, there was no clear order before, and the Ministry of Accounts was in charge of it.

Just like that, everyone at the auction site was dumbfounded when a decree went down.Especially those rich and powerful who were satisfied and had already bought the shares first, they were a little anxious. They didn't dare to scold the emperor, so they yelled at the people in the household department.

Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, was annoyed by their yelling, so he went straight up: "Those who don't want shares can leave at any time, and those who want shares can wait quietly. I will immediately enter the palace to ask for orders, and follow His Majesty's orders. Who If you have any opinions, you can go to His Majesty, and you can impeach me, and I will not accompany you now!"

After finishing speaking, he shook his hands and left on the spot, leaving behind a group of dignitaries who looked at each other in dismay.

 Thanks to the sun time and space, ride the horse world dhb for the reward!
