Chapter 537: A blessing from heaven!

"That man is from Fengxiang, Shaanxi. He was originally a local landlord. At the beginning of the second year of Zhaowu, he sold most of his family's land..."
"I founded the Wang Family Trading Company. In the past two years, I have mainly been doing medicinal materials business. In Fengxiang, I also have to do wood business..."
"After coming to the capital, I asked around about cement and court policies..."
"I brought another three thousand taels of silver, and I also asked the King of Ginseng to pay homage to Sun Sheng, the commander of the Jinwu Left Guard..."
In the Ganqing Palace, Wang Wu reported respectfully, but he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
The plate is so big. If the Wuxun enters the market and tastes the sweetness, it will be no more than one or two Wuxuns, and they will definitely be flocking to it.
This is a very bad thing, at least, it is a very bad phenomenon for the inner court.
"Did Sun Sheng ask about cement?"
The emperor asked.
Wang Wu replied: "I asked Miao Gong, a thousand households of Zhongyong Camp who were stationed in the Martial Arts Academy."
"Change cement to non-secret grade."
The emperor waved his hand, and Wang Wu's heart trembled and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, cement is a country's important weapon. If it is changed to a non-secret level, if it is spread, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
The emperor put down the memorial and looked at Wang Wu and asked:
“What is the function of cement?”
Hearing this, Wang Wu was stunned for a moment, and then he said something to his mouth, but he could not say it.
The role of cement lies in engineering, and new disaster relief measures are now spread throughout the country.
The disaster is urgent, but how can the inner court have so much money? It will open the cement factory all over the country in a short period of time. And the cement factory all over the country. How much significance can it be if it is strictly kept confidential?
"Okay, go back!"
The emperor waved his hand, and finally, he seemed to think of something, but shook his head helplessly.
Everything must be destined from the beginning, but he just didn't see it.
From the beginning, he forbidden Wu Xun from having too much land, he was destined to give Wu Xun a compensation!
Although, in order to make up for the military honors, the salary and benefits of the military honors were greatly improved.
Although most of the martial arts masters are still quite honest, even if they make money, even if they violate the law and discipline, they are only within their limits.
But it is obvious that the current Wu Xun is honest, but it does not mean that it is honest in the future.
Not only military honors, but also civil officials!
Since ancient times, people's obsession with land has penetrated into the blood genes.
Ordinary people, who have some spare money, know how to purchase land and keep their home business, let alone those in power!
In all dynasties, no powerful man has ever lived in tens of thousands of acres of land, leaving behind a family business and benefiting future generations.
And as the emperor, he suppressed the powerful and nobles' demands on land interests, so he naturally had to give the powerful and nobles another demand for interest!
Only by avoiding the backlash of these powerful people!
Otherwise, he could suppress it for a while, but he could not suppress it for a lifetime!
Once he dies, it will be a flood.
And this new interest demand is naturally very clear today.
That is...Business!
Although the collusion between officials and businessmen is a huge problem.
But in this official land, businessmen can’t avoid dealing with powerful officials!
It was impossible to avoid it in the past, it was impossible to avoid it now, and it was also impossible to avoid it in the future!
This is true in any era.
The pure private market is limited to small stalls and vendors at most. A slightly larger business has complex relationships behind it, and it is impossible to get rid of the word "official"!
According to his original idea, he was still struggling with the collusion between officials and businessmen, preparing to let the market develop naturally and then slowly adjust.
But now that I have made a decision, there is no need to worry too much.
Even if officials and businessmen collude, as long as the interests of the powerful and wealthy are above business, most people can have the bottom line of land.
At worst, you can go home to farm, and this retreat can also be owned by the people.
In this era, it is a great blessing!
This Sun Sheng is naturally a signal!
After he makes money and tastes the sweetness, he will naturally attract a large number of powerful people to rush to all walks of life.
The interests of the powerful will be settled.
The influx of wealth into business can also drive the rapid development of private commerce. Together, make the business bigger, while making business prosperous, it can also avoid the disorderly expansion of internal court businesses and promote the regularization of business.
The next thing is to improve the commercial tax bit by bit based on business development, and the most important system of Daheng Money House.
Overall, as long as all this does not deviate from the direction, it will obviously be more beneficial than disadvantages for Daheng...
"I hope!"
The emperor breathed a long sigh. In his life, he could bring the people of the world from the stage of struggling below the line of food and clothing to the stage of eating and drinking, and wanting dignity, which would be a blessing!
...
At the beginning of the fourth year of Zhaowu, with the emperor's will, a storm also swept across the entire upper class of Daheng in an extremely quiet and uninterrupted manner.
Whether it is literature or martial arts, the eyes are fixed on cement and things around cement.
A feast for the upper class of powerful people also completely kicked off.
Cement, this new thing, also covers the entire Daheng world at a speed that has never been seen before.
On the emperor's desk, there were also a lot of messages about disaster relief projects, road repairs, river management, and city defense repairs.
Behind this are cement factories and sand and gravel fields that have been built one after another in the world.
In just January of the fourth year of Zhaowu, cement factories in various places have not been completely built, but cement buildings have appeared one after another in the world that have attracted countless people to watch.
Building roads, building water conservancy, managing rivers, building city walls, and building houses...
Cement seems to have become a panacea, and various publicity is also known to the world little by little by little under the publicity of commercial banks in various places.
As cement is completely spread, the craftsman's title was awarded for his development of cement, and the fact that cement production was once more profitable in ten years was also implemented bit by bit, becoming legends and spread throughout the country.
As the situation spread, it seemed that under the advice of many court officials, the emperor was thinking about the troubles of the people. On February 23, the fourth year of Zhaowu, the emperor issued an order to add another two million taels of silver for disaster relief projects!
On the same day, in the midst of the hustle and bustle, the emperor secretly allocated one million taels of silver to the two shipyards in Denglai Jiangnan to provide silver for shipbuilding.
Of course, only a few people who really noticed the additional allocation of one million taels of silver this time, and the eyes of the vast majority of people were as if they were on the disaster relief projects carried out in the disaster areas...
