Chapter 121 One billion
How many promises made by politicians are fulfilled?
Not to mention whether He Xi can resist the temptation of power. To put it simply, after He Xi stepped down from the core of power, how could he ensure the safety of himself, his relatives and those around him.
The transfer of power is a big problem even in modern society. One bad move will cause trouble. Just like the former Soviet Union, there was almost no normal transfer of power. After all, I have the power in my hand, and I own the world. The power is given to others, and Tai Ah holds it back. Life and death are not up to me.
As far as Yao Guangxiao himself is concerned, he actually hopes that He Xi will go further.
He didn't mean to say that He Xi would usurp the throne. Yao Guangxiao knew that He Xi absolutely refused. It was because He Xi didn't want to break the political rules set by himself. What he wanted He Xi to do was to completely ignore the emperor. Become a true virtual king.
The government returns to the cabinet, and the sacrifices are made to the few.
The biggest advantage of this is that according to the political rules established by He Xi, he will not give up his power to his son. After all, if he was willing to do this, he might as well just usurp the throne. Therefore, the person who will take over the power in his place in the future must be the minister of the DPRK.
In this way, these people have the opportunity to touch the highest power.
This is also a great benefit for them.
People's hearts will change as the situation changes.
The war is not over yet, and many people have other thoughts. Even He Xi's self-proclaimed confidant is the same.
However, He Xi didn't think about this. Although he has the idea of retiring after success, this is still a long way away. He Xi also admitted that Yao Guangxiao was right. There is still much to do. Even after he conquered Nanjing and conquered the world, he still had to complete the transformation of local provinces.
In fact, in Beijing today, in He Xi's view, only the prefecture and county yamen in Beijing and Hebei have made some progress. The yamen in other places are still the same.
In order to conquer the world in the future, he must also urge the whole world to complete the reform and change the original prefecture and county model to the civil service system formulated by He Xi.
He needs time.
It's not that He Xi can't keep his position, but it would be great if Zhu Xiongying could retreat despite the difficulties.
And who knows how much money it costs to fight a war, not to mention that after the war, it also costs money to treat the wounds of the war. Instead of doing that, it would be better to make a big sum directly.
He Xi said: "Okay. Let's get a big sum this time." He Xi was silent for a while and said: "It's only one billion yuan, just the national debt."
As soon as these words came out, Yao Guangxiao couldn't bear it anymore. He just said one billion, which was actually a bit of a joke.
He Xi's national debt model is actually a release of water, a big release of water. Now, in fact, all aspects have been affected. Stabilizing prices is also becoming increasingly difficult. If He Xi hadn't been forced to do so, he would have used all means to hoard a large amount of gold and silver. This price is already difficult to deal with.
Even the official price of copper coins is one thousand yuan, but in fact, it is already floating.
This is the latest Sulu copper mine. Copper was continuously transported to Beijing, and Beijing kept making copper coins day and night. Otherwise, the ratio between copper coins and banknotes will be more difficult to stabilize.
He Xi is very likely to cause a problem if he lets things go like this.
Yang Shiqi was even more surprised and wanted to stand up and speak.
He Xi waved her hand and said: "Everything will have a lag. If the world is settled with one battle next year, there won't be too many problems. If we can't win next year, let's forget about it. Mr. Yao."
Yao Guangxiao said: "Sir, what are your orders?"
He Xi said: "You came from Nanjing in a hurry, and you should have been allowed to stay longer. But this matter is too important. You have to prepare first. When the national debt is released, you will bring 100 million yuan as The capital immediately went south. Do you know what I am going to do? There must be no mistakes in this matter."
Yao Guangxiao said: "I understand."
He Xi's excessive issuance of currency was actually a plan to sack Nanjing.
Use Nanjing, that is, the southern region, to take over Beijing's currency issuance, and Beijing will
There won't be any big problems. After all, Nanjing’s fundamentals are too good. Once Ding Xian was able to send so much money indiscriminately in Nanjing. You can imagine.
And once Beijing captures Nanjing, the assets now denominated in Nanjing's new banknotes will probably be exchanged for Beijing banknotes at a discount. There are a large number of high-quality assets in Nanjing. The value of Beijing's currency will also stabilize.
We can even take this opportunity to attack the conservative forces in Nanjing.
After Ding Xian's blow, and then the impact of the defeat of Nanjing, there was another wave of currency plunder. He Xi doesn't believe how much strength the traditional southern conservative forces still have. Upper decision decided by the economic background.
When everyone is setting up factories and companies to make money, the traditional scholar-bureaucrat group and the traditional Ming court will never come back. Even if there is an occasional restoration, it cannot stop the march of history.
He Xi said: "This matter is settled like this."
Although He Xi said so. But He Xi still had to explain this matter clearly to Zhu Xiongying. If Zhu Xiongying firmly objects, this matter will be really difficult to handle.
-------
"What does He Xi want to do?" Zhu Xiongying was a little confused. He asked Jie Jin: "Even if there is a decisive battle next year, I estimate that the military salary plus rewards and the cost of firearms will probably be around 100 million yuan, just to prevent accidents. For additional expenses such as the cost of building a railway, 300 million should be enough." Yes. For insurance purposes, 500 million is fine. How can it be one billion this time? This number is too big. Add in the last national debt, it is estimated to be more than one billion."
"How can I repay this?"
Xie Jin said: "Your Majesty, I thought that the Chief Assistant's concern was not about the decisive battle, but about Your Majesty."
Zhu Xiongying said: "With me?"
Xie Jin said: "Next year's decisive battle in Luoyang, what do you think the outcome will be?"
Zhu Xiongying said: "Our army must win. Now the Southern Army is in decline. Even if the King of Zhongshan comes back, it cannot reverse the situation. Although Fu Youde is also a handsome man, he is not as good as the King of Zhongshan. How can we save the situation. Next year The battle must be won. It’s just a matter of winning more and winning less.”
Xie Jin said: "So the chief assistant is considering the war. Especially the appearance of Mei Prince Consort represents the support of many people."
Although Princess Ningguo and Princess Anqing have a very good relationship, they are sisters. But in terms of political attitude, Mei Yin still favors Zhu Xiongying. Without him, Mei Yin was trained by Zhu Yuanzhang. He has a strong sense of orthodoxy in his heart.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang is dead, his influence is everywhere.
Many people will defect to Zhu Xiongying because of Zhu Yuanzhang. It's like, as soon as Empress Dowager Lu died, Chang'an fell in love with the Liu family. And Zhu Yuanzhang's reputation in the world is no worse than Liu Bang. Except for the forces run by He Xi personally, most of them are willing to defect to Zhu Xiongying, rather than being subordinate to He Xi.
Zhu Xiongying was also secretly happy about this situation.
He could see that after the world was leveled, Zhu Xiongying would have a powerful force in his hands. This force was the Confederate generals who turned to him one after another.
Zhu Xiongying was secretly happy, but he did not expect that He Xi was also making arrangements for the battle.
Zhu Xiongying said: "What does the chief minister want to do?"
Xie Jin said: "He wants to keep his position as Chief Assistant, at least in the next few years. They are all in the position of Chief Assistant. If I remember correctly, when the Chief Assistant was formulating the cabinet charter, the Chief Assistant was the two-term co-ordinator. Ten years, and now the first term is about to end. After Nanjing is captured, will His Majesty really want the chief minister to still be in office?"
"And if the imperial court is in debt worth billions after the war, who in the world, except He Shoufu, will have the confidence to clean up this mess?"
Zhu Xiongying did not answer.
But not answering is also an answer.
As far as Zhu Xiongying is concerned, he feels that he has endured a lot of things from He Xi. If he could, he actually didn't want to endure it anymore, but the situation was like this. If he personally took charge of the overall situation instead of He Xi, would the situation in the world develop in a good direction?
Zhu Xiongying didn't know.
Letting He Xi be in office is Zhu Xiongying's best choice.
It's just that after the war, the most important prerequisite for He Xi to take office will not be
Here we are. Zhu Xiongying will have a new choice.
Now it seems that He Xi is ahead of him at this step.
Zhu Xiongying said: "How do you think I should respond?"
