After everyone sat down, the prince gave Qian Chunhua a detailed account of the conditions of the wastelands in Ganzhou, Leizhou and other prefectures.
At the same time, the prince also expressed his confusion, why his method could not be implemented, and what he should do now.
A word immediately popped up in Qian Chunhua’s mind: “introducing foreign investment.”
However, there was no such practice in the Fujian Dynasty, so the existing model can indeed break the current deadlock by introducing a third party.
However, will my proposal affect other people's interests and bring about bad consequences?
Qian Chunhua hesitated for a moment.
At this time, the prince leaned back helplessly on a chair, muttering to himself: "Actually, my idea is very simple, I just want the people of the Min Dynasty to have enough food and warm clothes."
The prince's words almost broke the hesitant Qian Chunhua.
Why think so much? Just do it if you want to.
Qian Chunhua said directly: "The local wealthy families are unwilling to provide interest-free silver to the villagers to buy seeds. You can find a wealthy family that is willing to provide it."
This was already discussed during the afternoon meeting.
"But who is so stupid as to be willing to do such a thankless task?"
The prince blurted out, and after he finished speaking, he realized that the person in front of him was the one doing this thankless task.
The prince smiled awkwardly.
Qian Chunhua had no idea what the prince was thinking, and she immediately replied: "The rich man suffered a loss in this matter, and we can make it up to him in other ways."
She thought of the world she came from, where the local government would offer various preferential policies when attracting investment, such as tax exemption and low-price land purchase.
"For example?" the prince asked with great interest.
"For example, if this rich man lends out silver, he must have other businesses. The court can give him appropriate tax reductions based on the amount of silver he lent out."
"Is there anything else? Is there anything else?" The prince didn't expect that Sister Chunhua's casual remark was actually a good idea.
"You can also give him other conveniences. For example, if a wealthy family has a child of school age, he can be given a place in the Imperial College." Qian Chunhua didn't believe it. The modern concept of school district housing would not have existed in ancient times.
For their children, they are probably willing to do anything.
"Anything else?"
"Also, you can inquire about his needs in private. If this person has a good reputation, you can give him a reward in the name of the royal family."
Without waiting for the prince to ask again, Qian Chunhua directly concluded, "In general, you should provide what they need and distribute it according to demand."
"Haha, what a great distribution according to needs." The prince suddenly became enlightened.
He had another question, the prince continued, "What if the farmers don't buy seeds with the money they lend out, but use it for other purposes?"
"Just give them the seeds directly, and don't give them money. This time, Village Chief Jiang from Taoyuan Township bought all the seeds and didn't give anyone money."
“What if there is another natural disaster and the harvest is not enough to pay the debt?”
"Then continue to keep the account and pay it back next season."
"What if this person cheats on you?"
"Looking at the big data, most people can pay it back, but if he can't, then he might be a scammer."
"What if..." The prince still had many questions.
Qian Chunhua quickly said, "Stop, no matter what, we need to analyze each problem specifically. There are always more solutions than problems."
