    At the end of the same dynasty, the Ming Dynasty had a money shortage, but the Qing Dynasty never lacked money, because the Qing Dynasty could borrow money, and the Western powers were the banks in their eyes, but no one in the Ming Dynasty was willing to lend them money, and it was impossible for Li Zicheng and Huang Taiji to lend money to the Ming Dynasty。The Western powers opened the door of the Qing Dynasty to close the country with strong ships and cannons, and the Qing Dynasty re-established a certain relationship with the world, and the Qing Dynasty finally realized that it was decadent and backward, and the domestic peasant uprisings broke out one after another, and the foreign Western powers took advantage of it. The Qing Dynasty had little treasury left, and in order to stabilize the regime, they could only grovel to the Western powers for help, and the Western invading forces were of course willing to lend money to the Qing in order to stabilize their interests in China.

    The Qing Dynasty had become an instrument of the Western powers to rule the Central Plains。In order to maintain the rule of the Qing Dynasty, the Western powers gave some economic support, but the biggest beneficiaries were still the Western powers. They occupied most of the Chinese market, carried out a large amount of capital dumping, and the Western powers made a lot of money, and no one was willing to give up this piece of fat, and even fought for interests in China, and the Qing Dynasty became the object of their co-optation.

    Zuo Zongtang recovered Xinjiang and the Qing Dynasty did not give economic support. At that time, the Qing Dynasty couldn't get a penny, Zuo Zongtang came up with a way to borrow money from Western countries to solve the problem of military spending, and many banks in Western countries threw olive branches to Zuo Zongtang, and they voluntarily lent Zuo Zongtang a large amount of money. Zuo Zongtang made a surprising decision, he did not choose a bank with a low interest rate as a lender, but chose a bank with a relatively high interest rate and borrowed the most money as a lender.

    Zuo Zongtang's unique method of doing so certainly has his own ideas. The Qing Dynasty can only maintain the stability of the regime and get the support of the Western powers by tightly tying its own interests with the interests of the West, and the more money Zuo Zongtang borrows, the greater the support of the Western powers for the Qing Dynasty, because their interests have been tied together.

    Because of the difference in the military system and military expenditure of the two countries, the army of the Ming Dynasty had its own land, but the later land annexation led to the military expenditure of the Ming Dynasty, and a large part of the national expenditure was used to support the army, which led to a shortage of money.

    Because the number of troops in the Ming Dynasty was more than that of the Qing Dynasty, the expenditure was naturally greater than that of the Qing Dynasty, and the development of the economy, even if the army of the Ming Dynasty was strong, the experience would still collapse if it could not keep up, and the number of troops in the Ming Dynasty was small, and it was not difficult to feed them for the country.

    First of all, the military system is different, the number of troops in the Ming Dynasty far exceeds that of the Qing Dynasty, and it is the state finance that supports military spending, while the Qing Dynasty is a local army, and secondly, the money of the Ming Dynasty is in the hands of the nobles and gentry, and the emperor does not dare to collect taxes, while the Qing Dynasty is borrowing from abroad and signing a lot of unequal treaties.

    One of the most important reasons for the fall of the Ming Dynasty was that the Ming Dynasty was too poor, and Emperor Chongzhen could be said to be so poor that he was reluctant to change his clothes. The Qing Dynasty was different, although the late Qing Dynasty was once poor, but the later treasury income was also quite rich.

    Although the Qing ** fought a series of defeats, ceded land and paid compensation, it can be said that it suffered heavy losses, and the Treaty of Shimonoseki in the First Sino-Japanese War alone lost 200 million silver. It stands to reason that losing so much money should be a sustenance, but this is not the case in history, the Qing ** was still very rich in the more than 10 years of the First Sino-Japanese War, and it can be said that he was a local tyrant.

    For example, as soon as the First Sino-Japanese Naval War ended, the Qing Dynasty began large-scale national defense construction, and in just a few years, it bought more than 20 ships from Germany, Britain, Japan and other countries, several of which were large-tonnage. In addition, the size of the army has also expanded a lot more than before, which does not show the decline of national strength at all, but rather looks like a prosperous era.

    Where did Qing ** get so much money? It is also to buy ** and expand the army, which is greasy in the fact that the Qing ** is constantly printing money, of course, this money printing must be guided, because the Qing ** uses metal currency, and he is the same as today's money is the issuance of currency.

    In order to survive the financial crisis, they issued a large number of copper coins, at that time a 9-gram copper coin, the various costs added up to more than 2 money, but the face value it marked is 10 money, so that ** has a profit of 7, and the money will naturally roll in.

    So although the Qing ** has a huge fiscal deficit, there is no shortage of money in their hands, so they look rich and have a lot of money to buy military equipment. It is obviously not feasible for the Qing ** to issue money indiscriminately to survive the crisis, it is just a bubble.

    During the Ming Dynasty, due to continuous wars, the treasury was empty, and the early Qing Dynasty was also due to economic instability due to wars, so the Qing Dynasty came up with a way to make money, specializing in small copper dollars, which itself is not high cost as long as 3 Wen, but it is worth 10 Wen, and the money in the hands of the people is less than that of the imperial court.

    The Ming Dynasty was actually not poor, but the poor were Tianqi and Chongzhen. In terms of finances alone, Jiajing was very poor at the beginning. The country's financial difficulties led to famine, there was no money for relief, and in the event of a war, there was no money to pay for military salaries. This may have been the reason for the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

    Among all the dynasties in our country, the Ming Dynasty was the most powerful in the later period, but one of the biggest reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty was that there was no money, and fighting a war was the most needed money, so it dragged on to the end, the army couldn't even afford military rations, Chongzhen had no soldiers available, and the Ming Dynasty died. After the Qing Dynasty inherited the throne of the Ming Dynasty, it naturally understood this truth and began to actively think about how to solve the financial problems, and finally the Qing Dynasty finally found the drawback of the Ming Dynasty's economy, that is, silver. After the reform of Zhang Juzheng in the Ming Dynasty, the monetary system was implemented, and everything was traded with silver, and the taxes were also silver, and the people of Lunzhou had the habit of saving money, so many people saved silver in their hands, resulting in no money in the treasury.

    There is a lot of silver, and there are relatively few silver mines in our country, so in the end, there is no silver in the treasury, and disaster relief is needed, and when the military salary is issued, even the money cannot be taken out, so the economy of the Ming Dynasty fell into a strange circle, the middle and high class have more and more money, and the peasants and the country have less and less money. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, copper coins began to be minted, and the provinces were allowed to make their own, so that more and more money was made, and copper coins were also used when the state was taxed, so until the fall of the Qing Dynasty, copper coins were minted as much as 13 billion. With copper coins as the basis of currency, the Qing Dynasty can regulate the country's economy, when there are more coins in circulation, the country will reduce the minting of copper coins, and when the money is less when the vertical tong is trapped, it will mint a little more.

    This method of the Qing Dynasty also solved the financial problems of the Qing Dynasty for more than 200 years in one fell swoop. At that time, the United States also implemented the gold standard, but because there was too little gold, it had to announce that it would stop using the dollar exchange ** and change to direct issuance of dollars, which was also the coinage policy of the Qing Dynasty, which had the same effect.

    Why was the Ming Dynasty so poor? Why was the Ming Dynasty treasury empty?

    Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was a poor man who was once a beggar. He may have been afraid of poverty, so he instituted a rule that the state kept the children of the clan. The sons of the royal family had titles and royalties, and they controlled a large amount of land.

    Not only did they receive a stipend, but they were not taxed on their land. In the early days of the People's Republic, the royal family. There are very few clans, so the cost of the royal family is not obvious, but with the ** sexual growth of the population of the royal family, they soon become a burden to the state.

    More than one-third of the <> Ming Dynasty's tax revenue was spent on supporting the sons of the imperial family, an even greater amount if the taxes they fled and evaded were included. These royal children were a group of parasites that brought a burden to the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was in a surplus position in the world.

    Although China is a poor country, a large number of ** from Japan and Europe flow into China, but Europe also lacks **, resulting in a shortage of ** in the world. In addition, the difference in the exchange rate between China and Europe at that time caused serious losses for China. So by the end of the Ming Dynasty, the treasury was gradually empty.

    Of course, there were many reasons for the emptiness of the treasury of the Ming and Chang dynasties. The economic system, dominated by the smallholder economy, could not cope with the emerging commercial economic system. Zhang Juzheng's whip reform did set off the revival of the Ming Dynasty, but it also indirectly caused the bankruptcy of a large number of peasants; In the late Ming Dynasty, wars were continuous, and military expenditures were huge.

    Almost all of the annual income is spent on paying soldiers' salaries. Due to political corruption, members of the royal family and **** annexed land, which became particularly serious in the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty. When King Fu was raided, he occupied 40,000 hectares of land.

    On the one hand, these powerful people occupy the land, and on the other hand, they try to evade taxes, which are ultimately paid by the peasants! In this case, the income of the peasants will be reduced. This increased the tax burden on poor peasants, leading to a mass exodus of rotten lead.

    The above is correct, but a very important reason for the lack of one is the issue of taxation, the tax of the Ming Dynasty is the lowest in all dynasties, so the state collects less money, which is related to the fact that the people from the rule of Taizu Zhu are the most sympathetic to the people. The two major characteristics of taxation in the later period, 1. The poor and rich are wide, that is, the tax loopholes, the landlords and gentry can evade taxes and avoid taxes, and add taxes to the poor peasants, so that there are more. 2. The problem of corruption, which is not much tax, is too much less after it is transferred to the imperial court.

    This led to a lack of money in the later stage.

    According to historical records, the annual income of the Ming Dynasty was about 20 million taels. When the harvest is good, the harvest will be more, but it will not exceed 30 million taels at most. Just looking at this number, you may not have any idea, and there is harm in comparison.

    The territory of the Song Dynasty was much smaller than that of the Ming Dynasty, but during the Song Dynasty, the daily income of the imperial court was about 150 million taels, that is, about 5 times that of the Ming Dynasty. Even in the earlier Han Dynasty and Sui and Tang dynasties, the annual income was about 50 million taels. The Qing Dynasty that appeared later was about 80 million taels a year.

    By comparing it like this, everyone knows how poor the Ming Dynasty was. When you are poor, you are prone to accidents, for example, when you suddenly have a natural disaster, there is no way to deal with it effectively. If there is an invasion by a foreign enemy, there is no way to fight it.

    Like the Song Dynasty, because of its money, although it lost the war, but if it paid the other party a little money, the country could still keep it and continue to survive for a while. The Ming Dynasty will not work, and it will be destroyed after more than ten years of running out of money.

    So why was the Ming Dynasty so poor? It mainly has a lot to do with Zhu Yuanzhang. Because Zhu Yuanzhang himself was born as a peasant, he promoted agriculture to a very high position, but instead carried out a large-scale suppression of businessmen.

    Because he himself hated merchants, he suppressed the status of merchants very low. Moreover, many regulations were issued specifically to inhibit the development of merchants, such as the children of merchants were not allowed to wear silk clothes, nor could they refer to the imperial examinations.

    Although it is said that each dynasty will have more or less inhibition of merchants, it is not as thorough as the Ming Dynasty. Of course, this was not the right path, so it also limited the economic development of the Ming Dynasty.
