Chapter 534: Eternal treatment of symptoms but not root causes

"Selling sesame cakes!"
"Canised haws! Candied haws!"
“The best Jiangnan silk in this store…”
The noise was endless, and in the sight, under the joy of the street, there was a constant stream of people on the street.
The emperor sat upright on the second floor of the inn, watching the New Year's scene of Qianmen Street after the reconstruction. Wang Wuli stood on one side and bowed to report:
"There are 22 people from other places who have entered Beijing from other places, and they are still gathered at the Duke of Jingguo's mansion."
"The four cabinet ministers of the cabinet gathered at the Chief Aunt's Mansion today..."
Until Wang Wu finished speaking, the emperor did not show any fluctuations in his expression, and he still stared indifferently at the New Year scene on the street.
Obviously, it is because of the cement road that Qianmen Street is more prosperous and noisy than in previous years.
Looking at the street scene, the emperor seemed a little dazzled. As for Wang Wu's report, the emperor didn't care about anything. In Daheng, whether it was a political or a military officer, without him, nothing could be done.
It took a long time before the emperor looked back, picked up the hot wine on the table, took a sip, but he didn't say much.
Seeing this, Wang Wu did not dare to say more and stood respectfully.
The emperor slowly stood up, stood in front of the window, and turned his eyes a little, and could clearly see the majestic palace at the end of the street, with fires flashing, lanterns hanging, and soldiers standing.
The emperor took a deep breath, his eyes flashed, and his thoughts flew.
The majestic and solemn palace city represents a symbol of imperial power, but it is not a cage that binds imperial power.
The Holy Emperor ruled with his pride!
This sentence alone explains the boundary between ministerial power and imperial power clearly.
If you cross the boundary of urging and rule, you will not be the Holy Emperor.
He has ignored this boundary, and he can also ignore this cage.
But later kings were born in the deep palace and grew up in the deep palace, and even for a lifetime, they may not be able to leave the deep palace.
In this way, if a wise king can be produced, that would be a great wonder!
Thoughts were flowing, but the emperor shook his head secretly. He always thought too much. He could complete the generations of things he had to do in his generation and arrange the next generation. His career as an emperor in this generation will be complete.
After that, no matter how much he thinks about it, it will be useless.
It is undoubtedly a fantasy to rely on a system that will last forever.
After all, things in the future can only rely on future generations.
"Where is someone coming to inquire about the cement factory?"
At some point, the emperor suddenly spoke.
Wang Wu was stunned and then he couldn't hide his doubts, not knowing what the emperor said.
Finally, Wang Wu also asked with a stingy forehead: "What Your Majesty is referring to..."
The emperor waved his hand and stared at the crowded cement streets, but he didn't explain anything.
Cement is a country's important tool, so it naturally needs to be strictly confidential. Now the inner court trading bank is responsible for building factories and supplying needs, which is also for confidentiality needs.
But in a sense, the emperor did not really want the business under the jurisdiction of the inner court to continue to grow.
When he first founded a money shop, what he thought was to use the money shop to collect money and then use the money to create a business bank, so that he could have enough influence on food, salt, iron, and other national lifelines.
But now, money shops are everywhere in the world, which is a good thing.
But the commercial bank, at the beginning, just wanted to influence the salt and iron grain, but now it is almost completely controlled by various "state-owned commercial banks".
The salt in the previous Ming Dynasty, such as private salt dealers, and private mines, led by the business, controlled by policies, and attacked by the iron fist of military and political affairs, were like rats crossing the street. It is difficult to see it again in Daheng today.
Of course, if this is the case, this is also a good thing in this era.
However, state-owned commercial banks that have public power are greedy. They use the chaotic times after the founding of the Ming Dynasty and the Great Heng Kingdom, and the emperor, he also needs the existence of these commercial banks to manipulate the entire world.
Therefore, the business affiliated to the inner court is like a big net, covering all aspects of Daheng.
Private businesses with small sizes can survive in a crack, but large-scale businesses like Shanxi merchants have almost no longer exist in Daheng.
Just like the commercial tax revenue in Zhaowu, Liaodong in the third year, according to statistics, 90% of them are derived from commercial banks affiliated to the inner court.
It is obvious that such a business ecosystem is obviously extremely unhealthy and extremely abnormal, and it can even be said to be deformed.
The existence of many commercial banks in the inner court is a powerful tool to stabilize the country during national turmoil. However, as the country is stable and the commercial banks in the inner court are too strong, it is an existence that hinders the development of the country.
If the inner court business continues to develop, it will not only be too big, but also need to solve it, it will undoubtedly be a huge change.
In addition to the fundamentals of countries such as salt, iron, grain, arms, and money houses, the emperor prefers restricted market development.
The state-owned enterprises dominate the stable countries and the private enterprises prosper.
Obviously, to achieve this, we must restrict the internal court business, stop their near-disorder expansion, and at the same time make money shop business more formal and systematic!
"call………"
As the thoughts flowed, the emperor also let out a long breath. The most fundamental reason was his entanglement.
He wanted to ensure the healthy development of the money shop business, but he was unwilling to intervene in the money shop business, so that the emperor had unquestionable control over the money shop business, leaving the emperor with important means to control the world for later emperors, and he was even more unwilling to see that the harem interfered in politics due to the money shop business belonging to the inner court, and the eunuchs were in great power.
This fish and bear's paw are obviously not allowed to have both.
To completely avoid certain disasters, you must give up something.
For example, if he wants to avoid the harem's interference in politics and avoid the eunuchs being powerful, he must let the dominance of the money house and the business bank be out of the jurisdiction of the inner court.
Otherwise, the power of the harem, with the power of the eunuch, could easily affect the money shops under the jurisdiction of the inner court.
The money dealership does not belong to the inner court. Although it will not affect anything in his hands, it will be difficult for the kings of later generations to come!
Moreover, eunuchs, at least in the local area, have no family interests to restrain them. The emperor is the master. Under the imperial power, they will do their best to do their best to serve their master.
But officials, and officials of this era...
Collusion between officials and businessmen and short selling is obviously not difficult.
The salt and iron official camps in all dynasties have finally become corrupted to a very clear proof!
During the Ming Dynasty, why did all emperors who did not follow the ordinary path like to send eunuchs?
Although the eunuchs did do a lot of illegal things, their ultimate goal was to get money for the emperor!
In this era, if the emperor has no money and has no ability to make money, he cannot be promising, nor can he be promising!
However, it would be fine if the kings of later generations were willing to be promising. If they were incompetent and incompetent, they might be a disaster if they were in control of this wealth!
The root of all problems is very clear, but... these problems are simply impossible to cure them!
It is always a treatment of symptoms but not a root cause, but this treatment of symptoms requires persistence day after day.
A little relaxed...
It's just erosion!
As long as the slack is long, the erosion spreads and the national destiny will inevitably go downhill irreversibly.
Even if there are wise rulers and famous ministers, they can only return to the future for a short time.
"If so, as in the future..."
In the mind of the emperor, he once again remembered the special national conditions and systems of later generations...
Chapter completed!
