Chapter 865 Sword of Darkness, Heart of Light (1)(2/2)

Unless an accident occurs, Wang Ju, Zhang Dun and Zhang Shangying will not let the accident happen.

First, the imperial court issued edicts to restore the laws in the first year of Shuozheng.

Then he did something shocking, and issued an edict to collect all 100 million cotton slabs into the capital and burn them all in front of the people in the capital.

At this time, Fan Chunren had not been demoted from the court, so he persuaded him tactfully.

It's a pity that although this cotton trade is a mistake, the country used hundreds of thousands of manpower for these cotton trades, and the cost alone reached tens of millions of chunks. It's impossible to burn them with one fire. It's really not possible. Five is used to one, and ten is used to one, and some losses can be recovered.

Zhang Shangying said: "If this is not the case, how can you regain the credibility of the sichuan Jiejie?"

At this time, cotton trading had always fallen to the market price of 200 cents, and silk trading also fell sharply, only about 500 cents.

If the country does not cut off its arm in such a strong man, it is impossible to restore the people's confidence in silk exchanges.

As a result, a team of fast ships came from the other side, and each ship was filled with a large amount of gold, silver and raw copper. The court also posted a letter on each operation. The other side would continue to provide a large amount of gold, silver every year until the banking department returned to normal.

At the same time, many economic people came down from each ship and went to various states to sign a large number of orders. With the orders, all walks of life could resume production. These economic people also said that the currency of the Song Dynasty was chaotic, and the currency of the Dashi countries was also chaotic. Moreover, it was not only Dashi, but also the coastal countries, including the Indian countries, and the European countries.

Seeing this situation, some seamen have brought silk to Dashi in recent years. The price of silk there is already relatively high. Moreover, the silk exchange in the Song Dynasty was so exquisite that many countries also used it as a quasi-currency in circulation, and its value was even far above its own denomination, just like the Yingzong exchange of ten cents. In some countries there, its value is almost equivalent to a purchasing power of more than forty cents.

The bank office and the silhouette were both promoted by Wang Ju. Although Wang Ju is on the other side, he will not sit idly by and watch them fail. If the silhouette continues to depreciate, Wang Ju will take the silhouette to Dashi to digest and force its price to rise again.

Then, if you have silk in your hand now, immediately exchange it for copper coins at a very low price, and you will definitely regret it in the future.

After three-pronged approach, the silk exchange finally began to warm up.

The next year, the reign of the emperor was changed, Shaosheng and Shao, continued, and restored, which meant to restore the government orders of Zhao Xu and continue.

The country issued another edict to restore the tax rate of the two taxes in the Shuoshi period, which is the tax rate of Emperor Wen, which is the one mentioned by some people. According to the fields, it is from ten to thirty taxes. Of course, it is not the tax rate when implemented, and there are some miscellaneous taxes. Moreover, the tax rate on the surface is also higher than the tax rate of Emperor Wen of Han, and the tax rate is fifteen to thirty taxes, not ten to one tax.

However, it is much lower than the original tax rate. Even if there are some miscellaneous taxes, the edict will be banned one by one.

Soon, large-scale fleets of ships on the other side arrived one after another.

They not only brought some commercial goods from the other side, but also brought a large number of gold, silver, copper and iron, especially gold. The amount of this batch of gold reached nearly four million taels. Wang Ju started to arrange this "break" a few years ago. The key to breaking was the banking department, but after breaking, it was established. This was not enough to rely on the gold and mineral output and trade on the other side, so he asked the soldiers on the other side to attack a small country in the South China Sea and obtained a large amount of gold, silver, pearls and jade. Therefore, for two consecutive years, the other side brought huge gold and silver.

The price of silk payment suddenly returned to the past, and many people even took out the gold and silver in their hands again and exchanged them for silk payment in various business. After all, the transaction of gold and silver was too troublesome, and they had to pay a certain amount of handling fees to the gold counter. Moreover, it was copper coins. As the other side brought a ship of copper and then cast it into copper coins, its actual value began to decline.

In fact, the Bank Department and overseas trade are the two most important treasures of the "gold governance" initiated by Wang Ju. As overseas trade resumed, the Bank Department re-operated normally. Under their pull, the Song Dynasty's economy also recovered.

But it was still far from the sunset of the years between the Shuozheng period in the following years of Yuanfeng and the Shuozheng period. In the autumn of this year, countless people fled to the other side, and even the fleets left, and a large number of people stayed in various ports because they could not be taken away.

Zhao Xu was shocked when he heard the news and hurriedly asked Cai Que that if the country was stable, there would not be so many people who fled the Song Dynasty.
