Song Beiyun

"Bad money drives out good money? Bad things can drive out good things? What's the point?" Zhao Xing blinked: "Don't talk nonsense."

Song Beiyun didn't say anything, but this kind of economic concept was too advanced for Zhao Xing, so he patiently explained.

After listening to the lecture, both Zhao and Fo Baonu, who came to listen to the lecture later, suddenly realized that there really is such a thing as survival of the fittest in the world.

"Yes, I remember, the same is true when the father minted copper coins. Originally, there were seven coppers and three irons, but later I found that the market was full of three coppers, five irons and two parts lead." Fo Baonu suddenly realized: "You want to use This way?"

"Yes, the best way to stop this kind of hype is the current grain method. Whatever they stir up, they inject a lot of inferior products."

Fo Baonu was a little puzzled: "But if you speculate like this, wouldn't the price be high? There can be more taxes."

"Who will pay your taxes in the black market?" Song Beiyun chuckled, "It just so happens that both of you are here. Let me explain to you the herd effect, bubbles, and economic crisis."

It took about two hours. Song Beiyun gave a basic economics class to the two emperors and a bunch of household ministers. To be honest, chemistry is really useless these years, but politics and economics are already full. There is nothing wrong with being a teacher.

The examples he gave are vivid and interesting, such as the well-known Luoyang paper price, and the economic collapse in the late Sui Yang Emperor.

Although Fo Baonu knew that Song Beiyun was a genius, it was the first time she stood in the audience and listened to his lecture. To be honest... even though she was the emperor, seeing Song Beiyun like that, she couldn't help feeling that he was radiant.

Thinking about her, she wished that Zhao Xing would die quickly... If it wasn't for Zhao Xing, this genius would have already become a member of the Liao Kingdom.

"The frenzied pursuit of status and wealth, herd behavior, loss of rationality, impulsive consumption, and bubbles will eventually lead to thousands of people going bankrupt, and will affect basic commodity prices, even food and vegetable prices. It will also cause great damage to the market. Long-term sequelae, don't think it's a trivial matter."

"Masters of the Household Department."

After Song Beiyun finished speaking, he raised his head and said, "Did you hear clearly just now? Both Changnan Kiln and Ruzhou Kiln must stop exporting immediately, raise the price of existing products to the same price as the black market, and then quickly mobilize a large number of folk kilns Imitations have entered the market. The same is true for other things. The horns are expensive, and the imitations made of sheep horns, ox bones, and pig bones are used to fill the number. Hetian Yugui uses Dali jade and Myanmar jade to fill the number. Write me down the price."

"Then what about those who paid a high price?" Zhao Xing asked curiously, "Aren't they supposed to die?"

"What do you care about those leeks?" Song Beiyun smiled and said, "It's not that they have a lot of money, so let's use some to support the country's construction."

Sure enough, in the following week, a large number of imitations suddenly flooded into the market. The quality of these products was uneven, but they all claimed to be official genuine products.

But compared to the expensive and hard-to-find genuine ones, these "genuine" ones from "trails" are surprisingly cheap. People who only know how to follow the trend but don't know the specifics want to buy a lot of them back home.

This is good, everyone claims that they own porcelain from official kilns, and the black market is suddenly filled with counterfeit and shoddy products. All of them fell into the hands, and many speculators were in a hurry.

Some big speculators even went bankrupt on the spot because of the continuous drop in prices. In just a few days, at least [-] or [-] well-known wealthy businessmen hanged themselves in their residences.

Before they hanged themselves, they had just been verified when the search team from the Liao Kingdom came, saying that they were hoarding goods and disturbing the market.

After going back and forth, the treasury of the Liao Kingdom was suddenly full, but the folks just had a little more money to talk about.And the Song version of the "Tulip Bubble" that was almost set off was killed in the bud.

And when Fo Baonu saw the treasury entry, he understood what Song Beiyun meant by Karma leeks, and he also understood the concept that the banker will never lose money.

On the contrary, it was Zhao Xing, who had been pondering over this issue of market laws for the past few days, and even figured out the concept of "futures" by himself.

But no matter what, the trade fair is still going on, and more and more people and more and more goods are pouring in. The increasingly hot weather can't stop these people's desire to make money.

The prices of many commodities are still rising due to various reasons, but usually they will be suppressed after a few days. The prices have remained at a very stable stage, and the Ministry of Household Affairs of the two countries finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"What about those inferior products? Will they smash the signs?"

"No, on the contrary, it will further deepen people's concept of authentic products. Letting real players enter the field in a small area will not cause turmoil. They will maintain the balance by themselves." Song Beiyun answered Zhao Xing's question seriously: "We want What they did was to muddy the clear water, so that no one could see the end, and those who couldn't swim would naturally not go into the water. Those who thought they were masters in the water deserved to be drowned."

Zhao Xing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "This trick is ugly but effective."

"There's nothing negative about it. It's better than hot money rushing into the market to see what to speculate. What do you think money is? Is it a few copper coins? Copper coins are worthless. What is valuable is productivity, production efficiency, and production resources. It must be transformed in an orderly manner." It will not be chaotic, otherwise no one can stand up to the chaos."

Of course, this method still can't stop people's yearning for an aristocratic society. They will still spend a lot of money on luxury food, exquisite objects and high-end clothes.

These are all human instincts. Consumerism does not appear out of thin air, it is something that is rooted in people's bones.

To curb consumerism is to control commodity hype, but in Song and Liao’s current situation, the country still needs to rely on consumption dividends to build the country, so to some extent, what can be done at this stage is neither to encourage nor to suppress, and to act when the momentum is not right Intervene and let the market transition smoothly.

Sometimes there is really no way, because there is no external market to stimulate consumption, but after a few years, the expansion of shipping will be fine, and you can eat the productivity of foreigners.

After this small battle, those who vaguely knew the inside story had seen how powerful Song Beiyun was, and they also fully understood why this guy was able to conquer both the north and the south. A war of disintegration.

Of course, the people I admire most here are the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs of the two countries. Many of them are still thinking about bans and policies, but now it seems that some things are far easier to use than bans, but the difficulty is a bit high, but this But it can bring about a long-term sustainable benign development.And if the ban is really relied on, those porcelain makers, small handicraftsmen and small workshops will basically be a yellow stall, and tens of thousands of people will lose their jobs because of this.

The Beggars' Gang is an organization that will be regarded as a shit-smelling organization wherever it is placed.As for Song Beiyun's hedging, the funds that were originally concentrated in the head were directly broken into parts and entered into the pockets of the bottom manufacturers, which not only formed a virtuous circle in the market, but also carried out a round of rectification and optimization.

So his strategy is really to make Mao Sai, an old-school official in the household department, enlightened and enlightened.

In the evening, Song Beiyun brought ointment and incense to the place where Fo Baonu was staying.

The past few days are the most comfortable time for Fo Baonu, because Song Dog doesn’t dare to bully him anymore, not only dare not bully him, but also comes to give him massage and massage every day, which makes Fo Baonu feel more comfortable than ever before. Stop making trouble.

"How much did you earn this month?"

"Not much, not much, about [-] million yuan." Fo Baonu said with half-closed eyes: "More than [-]% more taxes."

"No, you haven't sold the supplies you've seized yet. I'm afraid you'll have to earn [-]% of the whole year's income this time."

Song Beiyun rubbed the essential oil ointment on his hands, and then gently stuck it on Fo Baonu's bare back: "I made so much money without doing anything. Zhao Xing's eyes are red."

"Hey, he mentioned the futures to me earlier today. I thought about it. I can't do it. You southern barbarians, you have quick brains and good business. We can't beat you." Fo Baonu When he was pressed comfortably, he snorted softly: "I told him, either Song Beiyun should be transferred to the Liao Kingdom, or else he would never play these new things with your Song Kingdom."

Song Beiyun sneered: "Don't play with him. Futures are the knife that kills people without blood. At that time, the money will be earned by smart people. Turn around."

"Yes."

Fo Baonu turned over and said with a smile: "I've finally found out. As long as you southern barbarians want to talk to me, I just need to say that Song Beiyun should be transferred here. If they agree, it means that they are not cheating." Me, if you don’t agree, you must be lying to me, and I don’t agree.”

"Good guy."

Song Beiyun shook his head and said, "I let you find the trick."

"That is, how many times have I been cheated by you? Still not good?"

Song Beiyun couldn't answer these words, so he just continued to massage her gently until the set was over, and Fo Baonu put on his clothes fragrantly and leaned on the soft suede chair that came from Yunnan to look at Song Beiyun: " I heard from Zhao Xing that you are on vacation?"

"Ah."

"Then it's better to come to Liao Kingdom if you're on vacation. I just happen to be pregnant, and the witty words are not here, so I can't go to court with a big belly, right?"

"Then you can't let me go to court." Song Beiyun smiled helplessly: "But this is also a problem. You have a big belly, and the Liao Kingdom can't do without you recently. It's very troublesome."

"Then what are your plans? You really don't plan to take care of me? You can ignore Emperor Liao, but you can't ignore your youngest son, right?"

Song Beiyun was silent for a moment. Fo Baonu was right about this matter. She was under too much pressure when she was pregnant, and something might happen. It just so happened that this year was also the day when the Song-Liao Combined Fleet was formally established. The third and fourth ships The search for the main ship will also start in Shandong, and it is said that the third and fourth ships have been named Liaoning and Shandong by Fo Baonu. It is an amazing coincidence in history...

After that, the free migration policy following the free trade and free intermarriage in the Song and Liao Dynasties will be implemented one after another. There will also be an economic regional construction centered on Zhengzhou and centered on Hongzhou, Tanzhou, and Ezhou.There are also general maps of Song and Liao Dynasties, common languages, common examination systems, common user registration systems, and common taxation systems.Song Beiyun felt that Fo Baonu might not be able to solve these problems...

"That's how it is. When I'm done with this work, I'll go back to Chang'an first. I'll take care of you after I settle things at home."

"Bring the eldest son... I miss him."

"He wants to study." Song Beiyun shook his head and said, "When he gets older, my son of Song Beiyun won't even be able to pass the exams, and he will be ashamed."

Fo Baonu thinks this is reasonable, after all, he is also the prince of a country, if the prince fails to pass the exam, he will be laughed at for many years in the future.

"Then how can I cover up my big belly? There must be an explanation for another prince coming out of thin air."

"Well, it's troublesome."

"It's not troublesome at all. I'll just accept a concubine. Anyway, I couldn't have sex with you when I was pregnant. I'll find someone to solve it for you."

"Aren't you messing around?" Song Beiyun smiled and shook his head: "Okay, you don't need to worry about it, there is always a way."

"What can you do? Let's hear it."

Song Beiyun smiled lightly: "You're just pregnant and don't have sore mouth and tongue."

Fo Baonu hesitated for a moment, and then came to his senses. He picked up a goose down pillow and threw it on Song Beiyun's head: "You really know how to think about good things, Song Beiyun, and when will you hand in the plan for the integration of Song and Liao?" Give me?"

"It's still under trial, why are you in a hurry. This is definitely a good thing."

"Heh, isn't it the unified plan you came up with to say that breaking the sky?"

"No confidence?" Song Beiyun said with a smile: "Because there is no precedent to follow, I have to find my own way of peace. As for the issue of ownership in the end, I will give you a chance to fight within the framework."

"Hey! Well you Song Beiyun, look at what you said. What do you mean you give us a chance? You are the emperor and I am the emperor?"

Song Beiyun didn't answer directly, but just pinched her face with both hands: "I'm not the emperor, but I can make you not an emperor."

Fo Baonu didn't understand all of a sudden, but the dragon's body trembled violently, and he was extremely astonished and shocked.

Chapter 884: Sunny May 6, Ten Years

The Dragon Boat Festival is here, and the atmosphere under Mount Tai has reached its peak. Because of the capacity limit of the venue, three sub-venues have even been opened.

The things to buy and sell are also constantly updated. Zhao Xing hasn't seen anyone these days, so he probably went to hook up with the little girls from the theater troupe. But it was too depressing.

And most of the little girls in the theater troupe are young girls in their [-]s, [-]s and [-]s. Zhao Xing is definitely capable of being a flirt.

Song Beiyun was a bit miserable, after all, Fo Baonu was pregnant, and she was irritable, and this period of time happened to be a critical point in the future planning of the Liao Kingdom, so Song Beiyun, apart from participating in the opening ceremony, did not worry about the whole process. Did not go to the scene of the trade fair to take a look.

"Where did the official family go these days?"

Song Beiyun took the time to return to the Song State office today. He was just doing something to register the material transaction and replenishment in Chang'an. He happened to see Zhao Xing's servant filling out the form there, so he went up to ask With a sound.

"This... the officials won't let me say it."

"You say, I will stand up for you when he scolds people."

Seeing Song Beiyun say this, the servant didn't dare to prevaricate any more, so he hesitated for a while and said, "The official...the official set up a stall in the branch venue."

"what?"

When Song Beiyun heard it, he couldn't react immediately. What does it mean to set up a booth at the branch venue?

That is to say, he hasn't seen Zhao Xing in the past few days. Instead of looking for the little girl in the theater troupe, he went to sell goods?

This dog really plays with whatever it catches, and doesn't take the emperor's identity seriously at all.

He doesn't even know the significance of his every move. If someone recognizes him and spreads the rumor that "the emperor of the Song Dynasty set up a stall for business", then the subordinates will probably misinterpret the meaning here, and then many people will appear. A problem that would not have arisen.

Now Song Beiyun finally understands how much headache political commissar Zhao must have felt when he saw Li Yunlong's virtue in "Bright Sword". This Zhao Xing...

"What does he sell?"

The servant was silent for a long time, but his face turned red.

"Tell me, why are you blushing?"

"The officials said...the best money in the world is women's money, and then it's children's money, and then it's dog's money, but that man is not as good as a dog. So the officials said that if he wants to earn money, he can earn money." To earn women’s money, so all the items sold are daughter’s items.”

"for example?"

"Doubleband... obscene pants... rouge jewelry, and..."

"Okay, okay, enough is enough." Song Beiyun finally understood what Zhao Xing was buying, and he just opened a women's clothing store to earn money from girls: "Okay, I will take me to see it later See what that man is doing."

When both parties finished their work, Song Beiyun found that the servant was already waiting for him when he went out. The two got into the carriage together and headed straight to the branch venue two kilometers away.

Compared with the main venue, the sub-venues are basically private owners, craftsmen, etc. There are few chambers of commerce settled in it, so most of them are retail items, and most of the people who come to shop are young people who have little money and want to chase after them. It's fashionable, and I can't afford tea cups from Ru Kiln, and I can't afford to buy whole bundles of silk.

At this time, these retailers have become their best choice. After the popularization of textile machines, the ready-made clothing business has become very mature. Unless it is a particularly strange body shape, you can usually find clothes that fit the size.And some less expensive and interesting handicrafts are also good gifts for young people to communicate with each other.

Zhao Xing chose to be here to avoid being recognized as much as possible, because there are many assassins and other people involved in large transactions at the main venue, and they are easy to be recognized, and there is no need for small troubles here. Several people knew him.

Another one is that Zhao Xing doesn't have that much capital. His current identity is Zhao Sanye not Zhao Xing. Evenly distributed.

Finally, there is one more point, the reason why Zhao Xing likes this place more is that there are so many young girls in this place, those delicate and moist little girls, in fact, the best distance is to look at them carefully at a distance of tens of centimeters.In Zhao Xing's words, "No matter how good-looking a girl is, it's enough to look at her, otherwise all the good things will be gone with the wind when she gets into the bed and gets bored."

When Song Beiyun came to the sub-venue, the first thing he felt when he saw this place was the illusion of traveling through time and space.

Because Zhao Xing’s New Culture Movement has spread like a plague, and young people happen to be the group most able to accept these things. In addition, cotton, linen and pure cotton textile technologies have come up. White shirts, black straight-leg pants and leather belts have become the standard equipment for fashionable young people.

A white shirt, black leather shoes and a cropped head, no matter how you look at it, it is a kind of space-time disorder, but what Song Beiyun finds it difficult to accept is that this disorder is not caused by him, but by an emperor who sells women's underwear inside. of.

With the changes in boys' aesthetics, women's aesthetic system has not changed much. Skirts, embroidered shoes and cardigans are still their favorites, but the most intuitive feeling of women's liberation brought about by the New Culture Movement is that they will The knees are exposed.

It's just that what made Song Beiyun feel wrong was that while they were wearing such fashionable and trendy skirts, safety pants unexpectedly popped out from nowhere.

For Song Beiyun, he always believed that the safety pants were definitely the culprit for the loss of trust between human beings.

"Sure enough, it's no wonder that human science and technology will converge infinitely." Song Beiyun got off the carriage and saw the completely different painting style here, and felt emotional: "So there are only a few pathways in the world."

This matter was what he discussed with Miaoyan at the beginning. Originally, Song Beiyun asked Miaoyan whether a completely different technology and civilization model would be born because of their existence. Miaoyan replied that it was absolutely impossible, because science and Civilizations are alike in one respect, that is, the pursuit of ease and convenience.

As long as the straight line between two points is still the shortest, and the current will still flow through the place with the least resistance, then there will be no essential difference in the technology and civilization of the two worlds.

Walking into this sub-venue, the layout here is very young at first glance. There are many less industrial product booths and more play areas, such as pitching games, fishing for small fish, catching grasshoppers and exchanging them for ugly toys.

From time to time, there were screams and cheers from girls next to them. Seeing their cheering appearance, Song Beiyun knew that whenever they made such a gesture, there would be a boy who fell for it, and his IQ -30% , Courage +100%, Cleanliness +100%, Eloquence +50%, Reaction Speed ​​-50%, get the buff to move forward bravely, get the debuff to be unable to extricate yourself.

When he came to Zhao Xing's booth, he was sitting there holding the hand of a girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, and muttering something with his eyes half closed: "At the end of the year, there is a day of reunion, and when we don't, we hate the moon." Frightened birds fly."

The girl cried at that time: "Sir, what should I do? Can I still see him?"

"I will see you when I see you." Zhao Xing raised his eyelids and glanced at Song Beiyun who was standing there, swallowed the second half of the sentence quickly, and coughed: "Go, walk, if you ask again, you will reveal the secret."

The girl wept and left carrying a small bag, while Song Beiyun sat in front of Zhao Xing: "Sir, let me have a look too, I'm already thirty, and I haven't had my period yet, can't I? "
