C800 Shut up! Emperor! (2/2)
The old man blushed slightly, ”But Xiao Letian is still a Chinese, for such a small matter, is his reaction so intense?”
”A small matter?” Zai Chun let out a long sigh, ”Master, why do you also have to say such words? The printing process of paper money is extremely confidential, it's the basis to guarantee paper money's credibility … ”If we don't want to end up with a Ming Dynasty treasure note, we can't do this kind of stupid thing!”
”If we do not have the Real Gold and Silver as a deposit, then what happens when we run out of money? ”Even if we use taxes as collateral, there will still be devaluation...”
”The Prime Minister said that money itself has no practical use. He is just the target of social wealth, the total amount of social wealth has not changed, but once the amount of money has increased, people will find that the purchasing power of money has decreased. This is the devaluation, westerner is called inflation …”
”Similarly, the total wealth of society is constant, but the amount of money that flows is limited, so people will realize that the same money can buy more things. This is the appreciation, westerner is called deflation …”
”In order for a country's economy to be stable, it is necessary to ensure that the purchasing power of money is as stable as possible... If the imperial court were to hand out money without authorization, it would be tantamount to stealing the wealth of the society in disguise. The part of the purchasing power lost by the people would be stolen by the people who stole the money … ”
Weng Tonghe rushed over and covered Zai Chun's mouth with his hands, ”Your majesty! Don't say such words again. You are the Emperor of the Great Qing! You have to know which way to go... Right now, there are already rumors in the Beijing saying that you no longer care about the flag bearer and the imperial government … ”
”This kind of atmosphere cannot increase, haven't you heard the story of the three of them becoming tigers? Once this accumulated resentment was accumulated to a certain extent, it would go through a series of changes! ”In the end, the Great Qing is still the Manchu's imperial court, and the customs in the Manchu don't have much to do with the orthodoxy of imperial power …”
”If His Majesty has really offended the civil and military officials and officials of the imperial court, even if you have a strong army, you can forget about becoming the emperor …” It is not only the eunuchs and maids who have died in grievance in the Forbidden City! ”
Weng Tonghe knelt on the ground and looked left and right. No one said in a low voice, ”Everyone knows that the Emperor is the Son of Heaven, as if he is a saint that cannot be violated. However, countless amounts of Emperors have died in the history, in front of power and authority, even Emperors would try to obstruct one's way …”
”Rebellion and chaos caused by a battle of attrition are all fools. This lowly one's schemes are impossible to guard against. Chronic poisons, the beauty of a song every night, the elixir of immortality …” Countless ancient emperors have died in these schemes! ”
”Your Majesty, please be careful. Your travelling studies have touched upon the interests of many important figures. The discontent of the capital has been stirred up. Are you going to take the initiative now?”
”So what if they make counterfeit money? In the end, it wasn't the imperial government that was the cheapest. Could it be that Xiao Letian had made all of this money for nothing? Your Majesty, you really cannot make any comment on this matter. You must make them feel that you are still the emperor of the imperial court, and not someone who has let Xiao Letian brainwash … ”
Zai Chun's mind buzzed, he was still young after all. He could not accept the reality of the battle in such a cruel palace.
”Then what should I do?” Zai Chun said powerlessly.
”You don't need to do anything. You just have to shut up and don't act the way you did before. You want to participate in politics at such a young age …”
”Your majesty, you must know, many people do not wish for the imperial government to produce another ancestor, another High Ancestor, and another Master Kang Xi? ”Then where are they going to get power from?”
