I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister!

After the social environment was improved, Lin Beifan felt that he could start the economy.

Only when the economy is done well and people have money can they have enough food and clothing and live and work in peace and contentment.

This is also his greatest political achievement.

At this time, Lin Beifan was walking on the streets of the capital with a general judge.

"Mr. Wang, how do you think we can increase the income of ordinary people and let them have money in their hands? Lin Beifan asked an official next to him with a smile.

"There are many ways! Mr. Wang smiled and said:"For example, reducing taxes, encouraging trade, building water conservancy projects, etc. These are all effective methods, but they are difficult to implement!""

"For example, if you lower taxes, you can’t just lower taxes! This tax is related to the revenue of the national treasury and must be approved by the Ministry of Revenue and even His Majesty before it can be implemented! Our place does not have this right!"

Lin Beifan nodded. Taxation is an important source of finance for the country. Local governments only have the right to collect taxes and cannot reduce them.

Moreover, since ancient times, only the emperor has levied small taxes and amnesty for the world!

As a local official, what do you have? qualifications?

"We also encourage trade, which will definitely promote economic and commercial development and make people have money! For example, the land of Jiangnan is a prosperous place because of its developed commerce, and many people are rich!"

"However, this also has a big problem! The business atmosphere there is indeed very strong. Everyone is doing business, not production! There used to be a lot of fertile farmland there, but now a lot of it has been abandoned, and the food output is decreasing year by year! Food prices are about 50% higher than in other areas, and many people cannot afford food!"

"Once this person is hungry, problems will increase and society will become turbulent! Therefore, our government has always emphasized agriculture and suppressed business. It is really a last resort!"

Lin Beifan nodded again.

Now is the era of small-scale peasant economy, productivity is not developed, and whether or not they can eat is a problem.

So in order to have enough food, most people live with their faces facing the loess and their backs turned to the sky.

Young Master If a few people work, the food output will be less. If the food output is less, everyone will not have enough to eat, which will affect all aspects of things and even shake the foundation of the country.

Therefore, the court uses various policies and systems to encourage them to work, not Let them come out and hang out.

That’s why we emphasize agriculture and suppress business.

"Next, let’s talk about building water conservancy projects! Mr.

Wang became more and more talkative:"Building water conservancy projects, ditch projects, etc. is the easier and most direct method for us. It means we spend money to hire people to do the work." In this way, our water conservancy project is completed, which will benefit the country and the people! The common people now have money, and their lives are naturally better!

Lin Beifan nodded:"This is indeed the best way at the moment!""

This method is a bit like government investment in later generations. Investment is used to stimulate economic growth, and the effect is very significant.

"The method is good, but the biggest problem is lack of money!

Mr. Wang smiled bitterly:"The investment in any of these projects is huge!" Our government has limited funds and needs to meet unexpected needs! Without the support of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, it would be impossible to promote such a huge project! Lin

Beifan smiled slightly:"It's actually not that difficult!" As long as Mr. Wang contributes the money you have in hand, there should be no problem!"

"Ahem, Mr. Fu Cheng is joking, how can a lower official have so much money?"

Then, neither of them mentioned the matter.

The two of them walked and talked.

Lin Beifan discovered that although Mr. Wang was very greedy, he was indeed a talent. He knew more about business and economics than others, and he spoke clearly and clearly in all aspects.

Mr. Wang was also surprised to find that although the new Mr. Fu Cheng was very young, he was really knowledgeable and had unique insights into economics and business. He could often get enlightened with just one or two sentences.

It’s no wonder that people with skills are promoted step by step and are popular everywhere.

After a conversation, Lin Beifan discovered that in ancient times, if you wanted to increase the income of ordinary people, it was very difficult to operate.

It was mainly determined by backward productivity.

With backward productivity, you could not even eat. It has become a problem, and most people can only be trapped in the farmland.

In order to ensure production and food supply, and maintain social stability, the country has to focus on agriculture and suppress business, inhibit commercial development, and keep most farmers trapped in the land.

Business When development is restricted, the government will naturally have little money.

Productivity determines production relations, which is why the current situation is being restricted at every step.

Therefore, if you want to improve the economic level and increase people's income, the most critical thing is to improve productivity.

But Improving productivity does not happen overnight. Even if he comes up with several inventions that transcend the times, it will take several years to bear fruit. It is too slow and the day lilies are cold.

For example, the hybrid rice he is working on will not be available until next year. After cultivating a variety, it will take a few years to be promoted nationwide.

What he needs now is immediate results.

At this time, Lin Beifan heard the cries of sales along the street.

Lin Beifan pointed along the street and said with a smile:"Master Wang, look here. The stalls are scattered and very messy! And due to the uneven placement, a lot of space is wasted!"

"If these stalls were planned by our government, everyone would do business within their own boundaries! The streets are neatly planned and more people are doing business, which can increase the income of ordinary people!"

"ah! What Mr. Fu Cheng said is absolutely true. When you return to the official position, let him arrange it!"Master Wang slapped his head

"Plan the lively streets of the entire capital, as well as some temporarily unavailable open spaces, and then divide them into categories, including a street for eating and drinking, a street for fun, and a street for buying and selling! This matter has been settled, I estimate……"

Lin Beifan thought for a while and raised three fingers:"At least 3,000 jobs can be added, benefiting 3,000 families!"

Mr. Wang said in surprise:"Is it such a big effect?"

Lin Beifan smiled and shook his head:"Maybe There are more! Because once this thing reaches a large scale, it will have an agglomeration effect! People who like to eat and drink will go to Eat and Drink Street! People who like to have fun will go to Fun Street! People who want to buy things will go there. If you build a buying and selling street, the business will get better and better! As the business gets better, the number of employees will naturally increase!"

"Just like the West Market and the East Market, there were not many people there when they were first established, but when others knew that these two places could buy high-quality and low-priced things, they became lively! Mr. Wang smiled and said

"That's it! The street stall economy is related to people's livelihood. Mr. Wang, let's do it first. Anyway, it is not a difficult matter for our government! If you don't do it well, there is no loss. If you do it well, it will be a great political achievement!"

"Mr. Fu Cheng is right, I will go and make arrangements now!"

After Mr. Wang returned, he immediately started to take care of it.

He re-planned the streets in the entire capital city and finally divided them into categories. Streets and stalls of equal sizes were designated for ordinary people to do street stall business. They must follow the rules. Operate within the stall, keep the stall clean and tidy, and do not operate outside the boundary.

No fees are charged. Lots will be drawn once a month to redistribute the stalls.

After getting Lin Beifan's consent, the plan was notified to the whole city.

The people in the capital were shocked.

Unexpectedly The first policy implemented by Lin Beifan since he took office was actually about street stalls.

The foothold is too down-to-earth.

And it looks very good.

It took three days to finalize the plan.

Everyone found that after the re-planning, The situation is indeed different!

The streets that used to be messy are now very clean and do not occupy the road at all. They look much more spacious and very comfortable!

Once they are clean and comfortable, they will be more interested in shopping.

Moreover, the planning and arrangement are very in line with the needs of the people. For example

, if you want to find something to eat, go directly to the food and drink street. There are all food and drinks there, and you can eat all the way to the end. You don’t have to go here and there to find something to eat like before.

The little princess is one of them. For example, I have eaten and eaten in the snack street several times.

The same is true in other places!

The entire street stall economy has been activated, with more and more consumers and more and more people doing business! There is a constant flow of people and full of fireworks. Breath!

Master Wang said in surprise:"Master Fu Cheng, this situation is just as you said. The streets have become cleaner, everyone's business has improved, and the income of many people has increased, and it doesn't cost anything! Lin

Beifan smiled slightly:"My governing philosophy has always been: spend the least money to accomplish the most things!""

"Mr. Fu Cheng is really tall!"Master Wang gave a thumbs up.

In the palace at this time, the empress, who had just finished reviewing the memorial, stretched and said to herself:"It's been half a month. I don't know how Lin Aiqing manages Detian Mansion.!"

She had high hopes for Lin Beifan, so she asked him to go to the capital to be the Prime Minister.

Whether a person has the ability, just let him manage a place.

If the development of that place gets better and better, the people's lives will get better and better. Okay, that proves that he has outstanding governance ability.

On the contrary, it proves that it is not possible.

Although it has only been half a month, ordinary officials may have just taken office and are still familiar with their work.

However, the empress can't wait to know what Lin Beifan has done. Come.

A detailed document was delivered to the Empress.

The Empress looked at it carefully and discovered that the first thing Lin Beifan did when he took office was to ransack the homes of his government officials and confiscated four to five million taels.

The empress' eyes twitched:"You are really stubborn!"

This was completely beyond her expectation!

She put Lin Beifan in Detian Mansion and wanted to use his hand to clean up these corrupt officials.

Let them have the opportunity to be greedy, but not have the opportunity to enjoy it.

The empress continued to look down.

I saw Lin Beifan using his uniqueThe law improved the atmosphere of Detianfu.

I couldn't help but praise the case:"This method is wonderful! It not only punishes the powerful, but also safeguards the interests of the people, and does not forget to make a fortune from it! You are indeed my dear, you have achieved results so quickly! This method Once opened, not only the capital, but also the judicial environment and social environment of Dawu will be greatly improved! Haha!"

The empress looked at it seriously, but shook her head with regret:"Unfortunately, this method is not easy to promote!"

Lin Beifan dared He did this and was able to do this because he was fearless and not afraid of offending others.

However, other governments do not have this courage and are destined to be unable to do so.
