Although Sango was born in the Wu'er tribe, he was very intelligent from an early age, so he began to read the Bible and understand the languages of several countries in the western region as a teenager. Later, when he was slightly older, he worked as a Translator for his multi-ethnic language. Xifan is located on the main road of transportation, with frequent business travel and commerce. Sango grew up living here and learned to do business for profit,
He also learned the shrewdness and cunning of businessmen, and used them as future political capital to understand management. Sango's opportunity to develop was Buddhism. Because Sango knew many languages, he was promoted by Kublai Khan from a translator to an envoy of the main house of the General Administration, responsible for the affairs of Buddhism in the whole country and the political and religious affairs of Tibet. This gave Sango plenty of opportunities to contact Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty.
He often spoke to Kublai Khan about wealth. This catered to Kublai Khan's intentions, as the socio-economic decline of the time led to a financial crisis in the rule of the Yuan Dynasty. In order to get out of the economic predicament, there is a great need for people who are proficient in the art of getting rich to govern. Sango appeared in Kublai Khan's sight at the right time.
Once, Zhongshu Province wanted to buy a batch of lamp oil for the monastery, and sent a Han official Li Liuju to handle it, and Sango knew that he had to buy it himself, so that Zhongshu Province would give him the oil money. Situ disagreed, saying that buying oil was not something he should do. But Sango insisted on buying it himself,
In the end, even the two of them fought for it. Sango's purpose is to use oil money to sell lamp oil for profit, and finally Sango finally bought oil at a low official price, and sold it at a high price, making a lot of profits, not only bought back the oil.
He also donated the interest money to the imperial court. Kublai Khan heard about this and was even more impressed by Sango's financial skills. So Sango gradually gained Kublai Khan's favor.
In the leap month of the 24th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1287 AD), the Yuan Dynasty set up Shangshu Province, and Sange and Timur were in charge of Pingzhang. Sango finally became prime minister. He was responsible for presiding over major financial matters and became a prominent and important minister.
Since then, the power of the world has been vested in Shangshu. In March, Sango proposed the use of a new banknote, the "Zhiyuan Bao Banknote", and the original "Zhongtong Bao Banknote" is still used. And determined that the new banknote is consistent, equivalent to the old banknote five consecutive. The deficit in the treasury at that time was enormous, and this alone transferred four-fifths of the deficit to society. As a result, social prices have soared and civilian consumption has been lacking.
During Sango's reign, he arbitrarily increased the taxes of the people, causing the people to live in poverty. Some people were overwhelmed and committed suicide one after another. Some fled into the mountains and forests as thieves, and the world was in turmoil, and the Jianghuai area was even more serious. However, the corrupt officials and corrupt officials all said good things about Sango, and this was all painstakingly arranged by Sango.
Sango even asked them to make a monument to themselves. Kublai Khan did not know the inside story, but said: "If the people want to erect a monument for him, then erect it." So the Hanlin Academy wrote an inscription, entitled: "Monument to the Prince's Auxiliary Government.". After Sango monopolized power, the means of profit penetrated into various fields, even as long as he was willing to pay a high price,
Even if a crime is committed, he cannot be sentenced to imprisonment; as long as he is willing to pay him a bribe, he can buy a knighthood. Sango's retrograde behavior has made everyone in the world hate him to the bone. By the 16th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1279), there were more than 400 national uprisings, the most famous of which was the Jiangnan Zhongliang Uprising. The peasant revolt is like tea,
It dealt a heavy blow to the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty. These uprisings forced the Rulers of the Yuan Dynasty to reflect on the motives of the uprising, and Kublai Khan was shaken, and repeatedly summoned the favored minister Bu Kumu to inquire about the crux of the matter, and Bu Kumu said: "Sang Ge deceived the upper and lower levels, corrupted the law, disordered the government, and framed Zhongliang." So the people lost their jobs, the thieves swarmed, sango did not perish, and the legacy was endless. ”
In December of the 26th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1289), the Nantai attendant Yushi Cheng Wen haishu said: "Nowadays, when power is used for adultery, Shangshu takes the looting of the people's money valley as its top priority, and the subordinates he appoints are all corrupt and corrupt people who can blackmail the people. The reason why there are more thieves in Jiangnan is because they cannot withstand this kind of exploitation. The subject thought that the authority of the Province of Shangshu should be clarified,
It is in the country's interest to let Shangshu Province exercise the functions and powers it should exercise, to remove those officials who exploit the people, and to implement a policy of compassion for the people and love for the people. Sango was furious when he learned of these recitals, and he went up to the song six times to kill Cheng Wenhai. But none of them got Kublai Khan's permission.
In the first month of the twenty-eighth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1291), Zhao Mengfu, a scholar of Jixian Zhizhi, said: "The emperor said that Jia Xiangdao (a traitorous minister of the Southern Song Dynasty) was absurd and misguided the country, and he also rebuked Liu Mengyan (the southern Song Dynasty prime minister) for not reporting Jia Xiangdao's sins to the Southern Song Emperor. Now, Sango's sin is even better than Jia's, and if I don't tell the emperor of his sins, I will certainly not be able to escape the interference. But I was only an alienated courtier, and the emperor would not listen to what I said. Cheri then recounted to Shizu the sins of Sango's adultery and corruption of the country and the scourge of the people, and his words were very fierce. Kublai Khan didn't quite believe it at the time,
So he was furious at Cherry and ordered to punch him in the face. Blood gushing from the nose and mouth. Soon, Sezu summoned him to inquire about the matter, and Cheri intensified his argument, saying, "I have no vendetta against Sango, and the main reason why I so vigorously accuse Sango of his sins is for the sake of the country." "The ministers and the emperor's grandson Timur also spoke of the sins of Sango's monopoly and greed, so Kublai Khan had the desire to kill Sango
In February of the 28th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1291), Kublai Khan ordered the attendant Yushi Dusijing to discuss with Sang Gejing. The solution has been repeated many times, and Sango is poor in words. Shizu then ordered Yu Shitai to say, "Brother Sang has been evil for four years, and there are many things he has committed adultery, don't you Taiwan courtiers know anything about it?" Where is your sense of responsibility to know and not to impeach him?"
In July 1291, Kublai Khan ordered the killing of Sango, confiscated all his family property, and confiscated as much as half of the treasures hidden in the court. It took Yuan Shizu three years to overthrow Sango and kill some corrupt officials. However, the political style of the Yuan Dynasty did not change much. During Sango's reign, he once suggested that his subordinates set up a legend for his tree monument and sang praises and praises, and this stele also became a monument of shame for Sango.
