Li Yin was silent when he heard the words. After all, he still had a little knot in his heart. He couldn''tunch a rebellion while Li Shimin was still around. Even if he ruled the Tang Dynasty, he would be a rebellious minister and traitor, and the world would punish him , after all, this is a peaceful and prosperous world, he can only lose the hearts of the people by doing this, what will his subordinates think of him?
Although he has 20,000 intelligent people, these intelligent people are only auxiliary robots, and they have nobat power. They can only help in technology research and development. It is one thing to kill the king and usurp the throne, but it is another thing for the prince to fight for the heir. When the timees, when everyone in the world hopes that he, the King of Shu, will ascend the throne, he will Even if you don''t want to, you have to sit in that seat, because the other princes will be terrified if they sit, and they are afraid that they will be pulled down at any time. With Li Shimin''s love for him and the support of the ministers, he will There is a lot of room to choose, so Li Yin still needs to maintain the image of a benevolent, filial and talented prince in front of Li Shimin.
"That''s right." Li Yin nodded. He didn''t want to discuss this issue any more. After all, it was still far away. He re-said: "You choose two people to go to Ryukyu with the king in a few days, and let them stay there often. Resident, help me manage the manor there."
"Yes, Your Highness." Li Ran responded.
Having nothing else to do, Li Min waved his hand to let Li Ran go. Now he has to think about how to open private capital and go to Ryukyu.
After thinking about it all night, the next day Li Min called Guan Sixing and other Yizhou officials together with the person in charge of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce. Thismercial matter is managed by the government affairs system. There was chaos in the initial stage of capital. After hearing about Li Min''s open policy towards capital, both the officials and the members of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce showed shocking expressions.
"Your Highness, won''t the profits of Shengtang Chamber of Commerce be greatly reduced?" Tong Nian first raised a different opinion. People from the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce also echoed their approval.
Although Guan Sixing was shocked, he instantly understood that this was an opportunity, so he said: "I agree with His Highness''s proposal. Only by opening up the private capital can the people be rich, and holding all the people''s things in their hands is the same as The people strive for profit, the people are strong, the country is rich, the profits of the prosperous Tang Chamber of Commerce will be reduced, but the government''s tax revenue will be greatly increased, and what will be obtained by then will be far stronger than the part of the profit lost by the prosperous Tang Chamber of Commerce."
"Guan Cishi really doesn''t mind having a backache while standing up and talking. Most of the expenditure in Yizhou nowes from the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce. How much money your government has invested in road construction, shipbuilding, and schools is not all used by our Shengtang Chamber of Commerce. Hard earned money." Tong Nian was a little dissatisfied.
"Guan Tong is wrong. If these assets were not in the hands of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce, our government could also afford the money. And even though one of us is the government and the other is the Chamber of Commerce, it is also Your Highness. How can we share the property between you and me." Guan Sixing was also diametrically opposed, and he was also very anxious because the tax could not be raised. However, he couldn''t collect taxes for the huge Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce, so he felt ufortable.
Li Yin swept his eyes back and forth between the two of them, and said, "Stop arguing, the king came to you today to solve this problem. From now on, the prosperous Tang Chamber of Commerce and the government will be integrated into one, and will no longer act as an official. A separate chamber ofmerce exists."
Heard the words. Tong Nian''s expression changed, and he said in surprise, "Your Highness, is there something wrong with this old servant?"
Guan Sixing also opened his mouth, and said, "Your Highness, this..."
Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Li Yin smiled and said: "Don''t worry, listen to me first. From today onwards, the management organization of Shengtang Chamber of Commerce will be incorporated into the government system and exist as a separate Ministry of Commerce. Your functions will be There are the following: 1. Approve the business n and financial n of the private capital on the fief and supervise its implementation. 2. Manage and dispatch the trade funds and inventories of all state-owned industries on the fief; 3. Determine the state-owned tradingpanies in the major markets on the fief The price of wholesalemodities; Fourth, to guide the private business of the fiefdom and the management of the market by the trade departments of various states and counties; Fifth, to promulgate thews and regtions on the trade ount house of the fief."
At the end of Li Yin''s remarks, the members of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce were dumbfounded. Unexpectedly, Li Yin incorporated them into the government system at once. Tong Nian was even more excited and trembling all over. The social status is the lowest. Even in Yizhou, Tong Nian has a kind of inferiorityplex from the heart, so he cares so much about the Chamber of Commerce, otherwise he is nothing, and now he has be an official of the government in a blink of an eye. Responsible for managing allmercial activities in the fief, can he not be excited?
"Your Highness, how can this old ve be so kind, His Highness is so loving..." After finishing speaking, Tong Nian got up and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Yin three times, crying loudly. From a beggar to the person in charge of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce, and then to the future minister of the Ministry of Commerce, he has a lot of gratitude to Li Yin along the way.
The rest of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce were also excited, and followed Tong Nian and knelt down. There was basically no kneeling ceremony in the Tang Dynasty, and they did this to express their sincere gratitude to Li Yin.
"Get up! You are not allowed to kneel. The kneecaps of Tang people, except for kneeling your parents and the world, your kneecaps must be straight at any time, and you must not bend them. Even if the knife rests on your neck, you must To die standing up is the backbone of our Tang people, understand?" Li Yin shouted.
Wiping away his tears, Tong Nian stood up and said, "Yes, Your Highness, this old servant has remembered."
Guan Sixing was shocked, this time he had a deeper understanding of Li Yin, "Your Highness''s words, we will also keep in mind, even if you lose your head, you can''t lose the kneecap of a nation."
Li Yinughed and said: "In life, there are some things that must be insisted on. Even the most humble people should have their own dignity. Let''s talk about the chamber ofmerce. After the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce became the Ministry of Commerce, The industries under the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce will be regarded as state-owned industries on the fief, and the profits will be handed over to the prefecture and county where they are located, and the remaining profits will all be included in the treasury and used for the construction of the fief."
"Your Highness, what do you mean we can collect taxes on the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce?" Guan Sixing said.
"That''s right, like other private capital, taxes can also be collected. This time I called you here for this purpose. That is to say, in the future, the industries of the Pce will no longer be independently projected, but will be included in the treasury. This time, Yizhou will As the first ce to reform." Li Yin said.
"Yes, Your Highness!" He had long hoped that Li Yin could do this, because without financial support, many things would have to go through cumbersome procedures to be implemented, and now he can let go of the construction.
The excitement at the beginning passed, Tong Nian gradually calmed down, and said, "Your Highness, how can the technology of the workshop be opened to other businessmen?"
"This is the reason why I brought you all here. Sixing, you asked Shiyi Division in Yizhou and the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce to cooperate to establish a management organization for trademarks and patents. The technologies of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce will be patented. Transfer in the form of transfer, let the merchants who use these technologies pay the patent fees, and at the same time promote the trademarks, and the products produced must be affixed with their own trademarks to avoid confusion in the market." Li Min frowned and said: "As for the specific details, There will be special people to guide you, and you must learn with humility."
"Yes!" The two responded in unison.
Discussed some details with the two people again, Li Yin asked the two departments to negotiate on their own, and he returned to the pce.
After a few days of preparation, and Li Ran sent someone to give guidance, Guan Sixing began to disclose the relevant information on the Shengtang Business Daily. As soon as this information was released, it immediately caused a wave of waves, and countless businessmen flocked. I went to the reception desk of Shengtang Chamber of Commerce to inquire about this matter, and the reception staff of Shengtang Chamber of Commerce began to exin the specific matters to them.
However, like the briquette stove, the opening to private capital this time is limited to merchants holding Yizhou ID cards in the fiefdom of Li Min. Once this policy wasunched, facing such huge business opportunities, arge number of businessmen came from all over the Tang Dynasty. They flooded into Yizhou and asked to join Yizhou''s local household registration. Unlike farmers who were bound by thend, they were a free poption that could move. Li Min did not expect that the opening of private capital would actually cause a wave of emigration by businessmen.
As for this kind of unexpected joy, Li Min naturally does not refuse anyone whoes, but it is not a simple matter to join Yizhou household registration. These merchants must invest in Yizhou, that is to say, the industry must be in Yizhou. It is only in the state, and this is quite a shadow of investment immigration, but this condition is indeed of great benefit to Yizhou, because the settlement of arge amount of funds will not only rapidly increase Yizhou''s tax revenue, elerate the growth of private capital, and at the same time realize the industrial revolution It is also more convenient.
"Your Highness, ording to the statistics, in just ten days, 10,000 businessmen went to Wuhou Pavilion to apply for Yizhou household registration. Among them, merchants from Persia and other foreign regions also ounted for arge proportion. It is said that 200,000 people from various countries lived in Guangzhou. Merchants are now focusing on Yizhou, so in this way, there will be more merchants joining Yizhou household registration in the future, but will these merchants from other regions provide them with household registration certificates?" The household registration matters belong to Su Mo''er Management, after Li Yin asked him to make statistics, she quickly settled the matter.
"Do it! Why not do it? This is a good thing, and it can also show that our Yizhou treats all businessmen equally!" Li Yin looked at the data on the paper and smiled proudly. The statistics on it are very detailed, that is The original ce of origin of these businessmen is also clear. (To be continued..)
