Xu Hua was the second-in-commander of the former Shandong Province. The Guangxi Province was first established. Xu Hua was elected as the top leader of the Guangxi Province because of his outstanding political achievements and was in charge of Guangxi.

Faced with many difficulties in the Guangxi Province, Xu Hua noticed the existence of Guangzhou Maritime Warehouse. He wanted to have business relationship with Guangzhou Maritime Warehouse and sell some local specialties in Guangxi Province.

No matter how bad it is, we can use the strong business atmosphere of Guangzhou Maritime and build a series of cooperation with the merchants in Guangdong to open up the sales of Guangxi products.

After his on-site investigation, Guangxi Province still has many local specialty products worth mentioning, such as the famous Nixing pottery, Zhuangjin, known as Carbonifera, and Hepu Nanzhu.

These things are famous tributes, and they were originally among the luxury goods, so there is no need to worry about buyers no matter what.

It was only the war between the Southern Song and the Ming Dynasty that caused the big buyers of these products, the feudal ruling class, to be generally eliminated by the Ming Dynasty.

The buyers are gone and the luxury goods have lost a large number of purchase orders, which has left local people working in these industries in trouble.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty did not want tributes. A large part of the added value of these products comes from their tribute status. Products that were not sold were now even more miserable and were in a crisis of life and death.

Xu Hua conducted a field investigation and believed that these products have high artistic and historical value. Even if they were not consumed in the Ming Dynasty, they should not sit idly by and watch the skills be lost and the locals lose their livelihoods.

So he made a decision to support these industries while finding Guangdong to discuss commercial cooperation and strive to reopen sales.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been many considerations on financial issues.

Su Yonglin tried hard to establish a public economy, but also paid attention to the financial relationship between the central and local governments. At the same time, he referred to the out-of-control of the Tang Dynasty and the excessive difficulties of the Song Dynasty, and also made some adjustments to the financial problems.

At the central level, the Ministry of Finance's control over the lifeline of the country's economy is huge and controls the extremely large-scale state-owned economic system.

Specifically at this level, Su Yonglin considered that the Song Dynasty's central government overly controlled the financial power, which made the local government poor and could not even perform basic functions, and the money-using process was extremely troublesome and was not conducive to national development.

For example, when Su Shi was in Hangzhou, he wanted to repair dilapidated buildings in the government office and official warehouse. After careful calculation, he found that it would cost 40,000 guan.

As a result, the government in traditional and prosperous areas like Hangzhou could not even get 40,000 yuan of money. He begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother, but he still couldn't do it.

Even if you can't do this, you can't even think about building roads, building water conservancy, and building city walls.

What other things can local governments do that are beneficial to the people?

The troubled situation in the Song Dynasty became a dead end.

There is no matter when it comes to revolutionary construction. What should be adjusted must be adjusted, and the powers that should be granted must also be granted. Therefore, Su Yonglin learned from these experiences and gave some authority to the local government in finance.

The Ministry of Finance directly controls the important national economic lifeline.

However, branch products that belong to certain products in the lifeline of the economy and are not so famous can be under the jurisdiction of the financial departments of local provinces.

Local provinces can establish public economies of the same nature, build local characteristic economies, develop people's livelihood, and increase fiscal revenue in order to better build local areas.

So seeing Zhuangjin, Nixing pottery, Hepu Nanzhu and other industries that were in a dilapidated situation and faced the dilemma of being put into pot without rice, Xu Hua convened a provincial financial meeting, made a suggestion, and approved it, and raised the first batch of characteristic industries belonging to Guangxi Province.

He used the fiscal budget allocated by the Ministry of Finance to Guangxi Province to acquire these valuable industries on the brink of life and death, reorganized them, introduced the Ming Dynasty's advanced production and management system, maintained old technical workers, and recruited and trained new technical workers.

At this point, we just integrate resources. After investing funds to resume production, local digestion capacity is limited, or almost impossible to digest locally. We must open up sales and find big dogs who are willing to pay the bill in order to build the industry.

There were a lack of big dog owners in the Ming Dynasty, and the only powerful government's purchasing power was in the hands of the Ministry of Finance. It was directly under the jurisdiction of the Minister of Finance. The local government did not have this authority, so exporting was an inevitable path.

When Xu Hua found Xie Yuanliang to discuss cooperation, it happened that Xie Yuanliang was inspecting local specialty products and preparing to increase local economic strength outside agriculture.

Xu Hua's actions made Xie Yuanliang feel that he had found his senior, so he asked Xu Hua for advice on this kind of work, and then said that Guangdong and Guangxi were not separated. He was happy to help Guangxi open up product sales and increase fiscal revenue.

Anyway, those overseas big dog owners have a very big appetite. Basically, if you come once, you will die if you don’t buy it. You can spend a lot of money and buy it, and your purchasing power is very strong.

As long as these products come into their eyes, at most they can reduce prices and open up sales, and the local economy will be able to operate.

Then, Xu Hua also discussed with Xie Yuanliang, thinking that it is not enough to rely solely on exports, and he felt that it was necessary to open up domestic sales.

Xie Yuanliang expressed doubts about this.

"These products are not simple products. The process is complicated and manual production takes a lot of time. The cost cannot be so low that ordinary people can buy it. The purchase of the government is under the strict control of the Ministry of Finance. This is clearly a dead end. How to solve it?"

Xu Hua shook his head and smiled.

"You can't say that. It seems like a dead end, but it is not the case in fact. Of course, it takes a long time and a high cost to produce those gorgeous items, but the key is that we want ordinary people to afford it.

Our sales targets are not old bureaucrats and gentry, not high-quality people, but the people. Do the people need such luxurious items? They can't afford it, and we can't sell them. If that's the case, why do we have to produce such high-end items?

In recent years, farmers have also had a lot of copper coins in their hands, especially in the Central Plains, Shandong and Henan, where they were liberated earlier. Although the old farmers were so shabby, they had a lot of copper coins in their hands, and there was basically no place to spend money."

Xie Yuanliang thought for a while and asked in confusion: "You mean, sell brocade to farmers? Is this OK?"

Xu Hua spread his hands and looked at Xie Yuanliang with his expression of not opening up the pattern.

"Why not? Can't the people wear brocade? Are farmers not worthy of using brocade? Since the founding of our country, have there been any regulations on national clothing?"

Xie Yuanliang thought about it.

Hey, don't say it, there is really no.

In the past dynasties, even the Song Dynasty, which seemed to be the most relaxed, had many restrictions on national clothing and daily life. There were regulations on what color and material clothes can be worn by people.

No matter how rich a businessman is, no matter how rich a businessman is, the landlord cannot wear brocade, or special colors, or live in the Great House. If you wear it, you will be arbitrary. You will be punished and will be punished.

This is true for the people and the officials. Every level has regulations on each level, not just the color of clothes, but also strict restrictions on food, clothing, housing and transportation.

This is not only a reflection of the feudal hierarchy, but also directly limits the consumption capacity of the people and limits the development of business.

Luxury goods are only for the ruling class to enjoy. In other words, only the ruling class is qualified to enjoy these things. As for whether these things themselves are so valuable, it doesn't matter.

Because the luxury of this era is essentially a privilege.
