Chapter 901 Contempt from Gao Gong

The heroes see the same thing, and this is probably the moment.

After Gao Gong finished speaking, he looked at each other and smiled with Zhang Juzheng, feeling quite like heroes commiserating with each other.

These are the comrades I am qualified to fight alongside in the future to fight for this precarious empire.

As for someone, there is no hope.

What a pity.

How nice it would be if the bachelor who served as lecturer this time was my uncle.

After Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng looked at each other and smiled, the corner of their eyes glanced at Zhu Pingan, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but pull down. After a while, I couldn't help but feel a sense of loss in my heart.

After a while, maybe because he felt neglected by Zhu Pingan, or maybe for other reasons, in short, Zhang Juzheng slowly turned his eyes to Zhu Pingan, and asked softly: "I don't know what Mr. Zhu has to say. Gao Jian? "

Zhu Ping'an was applauding Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng's knowledge in his heart, but he didn't react for a while.

Moreover, except for Gao Gong asking Zhu Pingan a few words at the beginning, it was Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng's time afterwards. The two asked and answered each other, discussed seriously, and chatted passionately. Zhu Pingan could only be a melon-eater on the side. , serving as the background for the two people chatting.

So after Zhang Juzheng asked, Zhu Pingan didn't react for a while. Zhang Juzheng was talking to him just now.

Seeing this, Gao Gong pulled down the corners of his mouth even more.

"Master Zhu?" Seeing that Zhu Pingan didn't respond, Zhang Juzheng raised his voice slightly and reminded Zhu Pingan.

“Huh?”

After Zhang Juzheng raised his voice, Zhu Pingan realized that Zhang Juzheng was actually talking to him.

“I wonder what Master Zhu has to say?” Zhang Juzheng repeated the question.

"I think what Mr. Gao and Mr. Zhang said is true."

Zhu Pingan nodded solemnly and sincerely praised the two of them. Indeed, in Zhu Pingan's view, in the In this feudal era that emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, it was really difficult for anyone to come up with the idea of valuing agriculture but not suppressing commerce.

You must know that in the history of feudal society for more than two thousand years, "literati, farmers, industry and merchants" have always been arranged in this way. The policy of "emphasis on agriculture and suppression of commerce" that was born out of this was also a common national policy in feudal society.

Therefore, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng's emphasis on business is indeed rare, and Zhu Pingan praised them without hesitation.

Haha.

Hearing this, Gao Gong looked at Zhu Pingan, then at Zhang Juzheng, and couldn't help but sneered silently.

This is the gap!

At first glance, Zhang Juzheng is a thoughtful, in-depth and researched person who can see the value of commerce. He creatively put forward that "in ancient times, those who governed a country made it a matter of whether commerce existed or not, and agricultural power was the basis. Commerce was not allowed." If there is nothing to benefit the farmers, then the farmers will be ill; if the farmers cannot do their best to finance the business, then the business will be ill. Therefore, the power of the merchants and farmers is always like a balance."

As for Zhu Pingan, he can only say what he says is true like a myna who is learning to talk.

Very true

Haha, a five-year-old child can still do this!

This scene made Gao Gong couldn't help but think of a plot, a novel "Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan Three Brothers" based on "The Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which records the scene where Liu, Guan, and Zhang became sworn brothers, and Liu Bei said the oath : "In memory of Liu Bei and Guan Yu , Zhang Fei, although they have different surnames, they work together to rescue the poor and help the people in danger; they do not want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but they only want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day. , disloyal and ungrateful, both heaven and man will be killed!”

Guan Yu then said: "Although Guan is a martial artist, he also knows the word loyalty and righteousness. Brother Liu is a descendant of the Han Dynasty and aims to help the Han Dynasty. Guan is sincerely convinced. Brother Liu is his brother and Guan is his brother. Guan's destiny is to be his brother." Guan's body is his brother's body. Mountains of swords and seas of fire. Driven by the elder brother, the younger brother has no second thoughts. The younger brother vows to share weal and woe with his brother, life and death, and is willing to die for his brother."

Guan Fei: "The same goes for me."

Hehe

What a ridiculous Zhang Fei.

In Gao Gong's view, Zhang Juzheng was Guan Yu who read the Spring and Autumn Annals at night, never letting go of the scrolls, and whose righteousness was as thick as the sky, while Zhu Ping'an was Zhang Fei who only hated the book when it came to use, and I did the same.

I asked you what your high opinion is. What you said is true. Haha, is this your high opinion? !

Haha, I don’t have much in my stomach, so I can’t just say something like “I am the same” and “What I said is true”.

This is the case for Zhu Ping'an, who is tall and Gongjue.

"Haha, Mr. Zhu, don't be self-conscious. Qing Su and I are not outsiders. I think Mr. Zhu, who can propose in front of the emperor that "the people do not increase the wealth but the national treasury doubles", must have his own high opinions. "

Zhang Juzheng looked at Zhu Pingan, smiled and shook his head. Although it was a question, his tone was full of affirmation.

"The national treasury is doubled without increasing the wealth of the people?"

Hearing this, Gao Gong was immediately attracted. He subconsciously repeated the sentence, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked at Zhu Ping'an sternly.

This was the first time Gao Gong heard this statement. Gao Gong was not present when Zhu Ping'an proposed this point of view, and he never heard anyone say anything about it afterwards. What a wonderful vision it is to double the national treasury without adding taxes to the people. Anyone who hears this view for the first time will be highly focused.

However, the next second, Gao Gong shook his head and pulled down the corners of his mouth again.

The national treasury will double without any tax from the people?

How is this possible? There is a lot of wealth in the world, either among the people or in the country. The revenue of the national treasury comes from the people's taxes. If the people's taxes do not increase, how can the national treasury increase?

This view sounds very tempting at first, but upon closer inspection you will find that it goes against the most basic common sense.

The national treasury will be doubled without increasing the wealth of the people. Haha, I am afraid that only nerds with different economic backgrounds would come up with this kind of nonsense and sensationalism strategy.

The brain is a good thing!

Gao Gong glanced at Zhu Ping'an, and the corners of his mouth pulled down even further.

"Well, the people do not increase the wealth but the national treasury doubles." Zhang Juzheng nodded, and then explained to Gao Gong, "At the beginning, whether the sea ban should be strictly prohibited or relaxed, the Holy Sage called Yange Lao, Li Shangshu and others to debate, Mr. Zhu The emperor proposed this strategy when he asked."

Then Zhang Juzheng gave Gao Gong a brief description of the scene at that time, and emphatically explained the details of Zhu Ping'an's "the people did not increase their taxes but the treasury doubled." Way.

Japanese country?

Cash out gold?

When Gao Gong heard this method for the first time, he found it refreshing. After pondering it carefully for a moment, he shook his head slightly. Let’s not talk about the maritime ban, the seriousness of the Japanese pirates’ chaos, the shortage of gold in the national treasury and other issues. Let’s just talk about it. If Japan knew that the gold and silver exchange ratio was inconsistent with that of the Ming Dynasty, would it still allow you to cash out your gold? Wouldn't it change Japan's own gold and platinum exchange ratio? !

It's more than novel, but it's still not practical and works on paper. (End of this chapter)
