A90881 The key of wealth or, A new vvay, for improving of trade : lawfull, easie, safe and effectuall : shewing how a few tradesmen agreeing together, may both double their stocks, and the increase thereof, without 1. Paying any interest. 2. Great difficulty or hazard. 3. Advance of money. 4. Staying for materialls. 5. Prejudice to any trade, or person. 6. Incurring any other inconvenience. In such sort, as both they and all others (though never so poore) who are in a way of trading, may 1. multiply their returnes. 2. Deale onely for ready pay. 3. Much under-sell others. 4. Put the whole nation upon this practice. 5. Gain notwithstanding more then ordinary. 6. Desist when they please without damage. And so, as the same shall tend much to 1. Enrich the people of this land. 2. Disperse the money hoarded up. ... 23. Incorporate the whole strength of England. 24. Take away advantages of opposition. All which in this treatise in conceived by judicious men to be fully proved, doubts resolved, and objections either answered or prevented.

it_o will_v follow_v that_o this_o multiply_a stock_n of_o money_n shall_v revolve_v about_o in_o near_a the_o ten_o part_n of_o that_o time_n as_o the_o other_o small_a stock_n will_v have_v do_v in_o order_n to_o the_o demonstration_n whereof_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o if_o the_o quantity_n of_o money_n among_o a_o people_n in_o any_o nation_n be_v once_o so_o great_a as_o be_v disperse_v that_o which_o they_o have_v one_o with_o another_o be_v a_o sum_n very_o considerable_a to_o lay_v out_o in_o a_o way_n of_o trade_n in_o this_o case_n every_o of_o they_o think_v to_o employ_v his_o whole_a stock_n lay_v out_o that_o considerable_a sum_n which_o he_o already_o have_v without_o intermission_n and_o their_o do_v this_o without_o delay_n be_v that_o whereby_o they_o receive_v each_o from_o other_o the_o same_o sum_n again_o with_o as_o little_a delay_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n do_v put_v themselves_o into_o present_a capacity_n to_o do_v the_o same_o the_o second_o and_o three_o time_n and_o so_o perpetual_o for_o see_v their_z thus_o put_v off_o the_o money_n one_o upon_o another_o though_o they_o perform_v it_o with_o never_o so_o much_o speed_n can_v make_v the_o quantity_n of_o money_n that_o be_v among_o they_o the_o less_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o they_o have_v in_o their_o hand_n still_o one_o with_o another_o ten_o time_n as_o much_o money_n as_o former_o that_o be_v a_o considerable_a sum_n to_o lay_v out_o immediate_o in_o a_o way_n of_o trade_n whereas_o when_o all_o the_o money_n among_o any_o number_n of_o man_n be_v of_o so_o small_a a_o quantity_n as_o be_v disperse_v that_o which_o they_o have_v one_o with_o another_o be_v not_o considerable_a to_o employ_v as_o a_o stock_n in_o away_o of_o trade_n and_o much_o less_o to_o purchase_v land_n put_v out_o to_o interest_n and_o the_o like_a in_o this_o case_n every_o man_n defer_v to_o lay_v out_o that_o little_a which_o he_o have_v do_v in_o a_o manner_n total_o obstruct_v the_o current_n of_o that_o small_a stock_n which_o be_v among_o they_o whereby_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o this_o inconsiderable_a stock_n of_o money_n shall_v not_o revolve_v about_o in_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o that_o space_n of_o time_n as_o by_o each_o man_n strive_v at_o once_o to_o put_v off_o his_o own_o share_n from_o himself_o that_o other_o great_a stock_n do_v therefore_o i_o say_v this_o multiply_a stock_n of_o money_n shall_v revolve_v about_o in_o near_a the_o ten_o part_n of_o the_o time_n as_o the_o other_o small_a stock_n will_v and_o consequent_o trade_v be_v in_o this_o case_n near_o 100_o time_n as_o quick_a as_o otherwise_o that_o be_v increase_v much_o more_o than_o proportionable_a to_o such_o increase_n of_o money_n which_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n here_o to_o be_v prove_v the_o second_o thing_n to_o be_v demonstrate_v be_v that_o they_o shall_v hereby_o sudden_o multiply_v their_o riches_n to_o be_v more_o than_o proportionable_a to_o such_o increase_n of_o money_n i_o say_v sudden_o for_o though_o i_o confess_v it_o be_v impossible_a that_o by_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n man_n estate_n shall_v be_v increase_v proportionable_o in_o the_o same_o instant_n without_o any_o intermission_n yet_o money_n be_v increase_v to_o be_v now_o ten_o time_n more_o than_o former_o see_v that_o hereby_o trade_n can_v not_o choose_v but_o be_v near_o 100_o time_n more_o than_o former_o as_o be_v already_o prove_v it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o man_n return_v 100_o time_n as_o much_o commodity_n in_o the_o same_o space_n as_o former_o will_v so_o exceed_o hasten_v the_o increase_n of_o their_o stock_n and_o consequent_o their_o estate_n in_o commodity_n as_o their_o wealth_n in_o good_n will_v quick_o reach_v to_o the_o utmost_a extent_n that_o the_o world_n for_o money_n can_v afford_v and_o have_v ten_o time_n as_o much_o money_n among_o they_o as_o former_o though_o they_o have_v also_o already_o ten_o time_n as_o much_o good_n as_o former_o yet_o that_o be_v no_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o they_o will_v be_v content_a to_o keep_v such_o considerable_a sum_n by_o they_o as_o through_o this_o mean_n every_o man_n proportion_n one_o with_o another_o be_v multiply_v by_o ten_o will_v be_v disperse_v among_o they_o for_o though_o their_o stock_n be_v but_o yet_o ten_o time_n as_o much_o as_o former_o yet_o they_o find_v sale_n for_o 100_o time_n as_o much_o commodity_n as_o former_o whereby_o they_o will_v stand_v in_o need_n of_o a_o stock_n of_o commodity_n proportionable_a so_o as_o until_o at_o least_o they_o have_v increase_v their_o stock_n proportionable_a to_o their_o trade_n they_o will_v never_o rest_v post_v off_o the_o money_n each_o upon_o other_o with_o the_o great_a speed_n possible_a which_o as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v be_v the_o very_a mean_n whereby_o a_o commonwealth_n though_o never_o so_o barren_a of_o itself_o be_v sudden_o enrich_v with_o plenty_n of_o commodity_n and_o see_v again_o that_o though_o the_o money_n thus_o multiply_v shall_v stand_v at_o that_o stay_n without_o be_v further_o increase_v yet_o trade_v once_o quicken_v as_o be_v already_o prove_v have_v a_o property_n by_o multiply_v the_o number_n of_o the_o rich_a and_o thereby_o the_o expense_n of_o the_o people_n to_o increase_v itself_o like_o fire_n to_o the_o utmost_a extent_n possible_a it_o follow_v that_o a_o stop_n in_o the_o increase_n of_o money_n will_v no_o more_o occasion_v a_o stop_n in_o the_o increase_n of_o trade_n then_o forbear_v to_o blow_v the_o fire_n after_o it_o be_v sufficient_o kindle_v will_v prevent_v its_o further_a increase_n see_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o as_o it_o be_v with_o fire_n in_o this_o praticular_a by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o it_o shall_v be_v hereby_o increase_v by_o so_o much_o the_o fast_o it_o will_v still_o go_v on_o to_o increase_v therefore_o the_o second_o thing_n which_o be_v here_o to_o be_v prove_v do_v follow_v viz._n that_o in_o the_o case_n before_o premise_v man_n wealth_n in_o good_n as_o well_o as_o commodity_n will_v soon_o be_v above_o ten_o time_n more_o than_o former_o that_o be_v more_o than_o proportionable_a to_o such_o increase_n of_o money_n and_o that_o so_o much_o the_o soon_o if_o money_n also_o shall_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n be_v yet_o further_o multiply_v for_o then_o though_o trade_n like_o i_o say_v as_o fire_n when_o it_o have_v get_v strength_n be_v apt_a enough_o to_o increase_v itself_o yet_o will_v do_v it_o so_o much_o the_o fast_o if_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v intend_v and_o force_v like_o the_o same_o fire_n with_o a_o stiff_a and_o fierce_a wind_n by_o the_o multiply_a of_o money_n still_o to_o a_o great_a quantity_n i_o mean_v that_o though_o by_o the_o perpetual_a increase_n of_o money_n among_o man_n their_o estate_n may_v possible_o never_o come_v to_o be_v above_o ten_o tim_n more_o than_o the_o money_n which_o they_o at_o present_a have_v among_o they_o yet_o by_o the_o say_a increase_n of_o money_n their_o estate_n will_v so_o much_o the_o soon_o be_v above_o ten_o time_n more_o than_o all_o the_o money_n that_o late_o they_o have_v among_o they_o by_o all_o which_o the_o efficacy_n of_o this_o mean_n for_o make_v a_o poor_a people_n sudden_o rich_a do_v more_o full_o appear_v which_o be_v the_o thing_n here_o to_o be_v demonstrate_v hence_o therefore_o as_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n why_o there_o be_v so_o much_o care_n take_v by_o all_o state_n to_o prevent_v the_o export_n of_o coin_n who_o have_v not_o any_o mine_n of_o gold_n or_o silver_n at_o their_o own_o command_n so_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o be_v affirm_v by_o one_o mr._n robinson_n of_o late_a in_o a_o book_n of_o he_o call_v brief_a consideration_n concern_v the_o advancement_n of_o trade_n and_o navigation_n be_v here_o evident_o demonstrate_v his_o word_n be_v these_o i_o conceive_v say_v he_o it_o will_v appear_v upon_o inquiry_n that_o in_o whatsoever_o country_n the_o great_a stock_n of_o money_n and_o credit_n shall_v be_v raise_v there_o will_v the_o great_a trade_n of_o the_o world_n be_v establish_v which_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o same_o with_o what_o i_o have_v already_o affirm_v i_o shall_v pass_v from_o that_o point_n as_o sufficient_o clear_v and_o here_o insert_v as_o no_o less_o pertinent_a to_o the_o scop_n of_o this_o trea_n entice_v what_o the_o same_o author_n in_o that_o place_n further_o add_v viz._n that_o the_o great_a trade_n of_o one_o country_n have_v a_o

keep_v the_o soveraygnty_n of_o the_o sea_n and_o consequent_o the_o great_a dominion_n of_o the_o world_n the_o truth_n of_o all_o which_o will_v be_v prove_v in_o their_o proper_a place_n lib_fw-la i._o sect_n v._o show_v that_o nothing_o can_v be_v allege_v against_o the_o aforesaid_a mean_n for_o enrich_v a_o poor_a people_n but_o what_o argue_v as_o strong_o against_o a_o increase_n of_o

may_v be_v liable_a in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o those_o who_o have_v not_o serious_o consider_v thereof_o to_o some_o material_a objection_n which_o to_o remove_v be_v so_o essential_a to_o the_o main_a scope_n of_o this_o treatise_n as_o the_o enterprise_n itself_o hereafter_o propose_v can_v otherwise_o be_v vindicate_v i_o think_v fit_a before_o i_o proceed_v any_o further_a to_o insert_v such_o consideration_n as_o may_v tend_v either_o to_o the_o prevent_n or_o answer_v of_o those_o objection_n which_o therefore_o to_o do_v with_o as_o much_o brevity_n as_o possible_a i_o shall_v in_o this_o section_n before_o i_o come_v to_o the_o full_a clear_n of_o all_o other_o scruple_n in_o the_o next_o prove_v that_o nothing_o can_v be_v allege_v against_o the_o aforesaid_a mean_n for_o

to_o what_o be_v thus_o undertake_v to_o be_v prove_v it_o shall_v be_v object_v that_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n will_v occasion_v a_o increase_n in_o the_o price_n of_o commodity_n proportionable_a to_o such_o increase_n of_o money_n that_o be_v if_o the_o money_n be_v twice_o as_o much_o commodity_n will_v be_v twice_o as_o dear_a consequent_o go_v never_o the_o further_o in_o commodity_n by_o the_o increase_n thereof_o will_v not_o occasion_v any_o increase_n in_o the_o sale_n of_o commodity_n therefore_o not_o any_o increase_n of_o trade_n and_o yet_o by_o cause_v the_o price_n of_o commodity_n to_o rise_v incur_v a_o inconvenience_n contrary_a to_o what_o be_v before_o affirm_v i_o answer_v that_o the_o objection_n though_o for_o the_o better_a clear_n of_o this_o point_n i_o think_v it_o not_o fit_a to_o be_v omit_v imply_v no_o less_o than_o a_o contradiction_n see_v it_o be_v evident_a or_o at_o least_o by_o the_o sequel_n shall_v be_v put_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n that_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n can_v possible_o occasion_v a_o increase_n in_o the_o price_n of_o commodity_n otherwise_o then_o by_o increase_v the_o sale_n thereof_o and_o that_o as_o have_v be_v already_o allege_v if_o such_o money_n be_v double_v the_o price_n of_o commodity_n be_v thereby_o also_o double_v such_o increase_n of_o money_n do_v not_o in_o this_o case_n increase_v the_o sale_n of_o commodity_n it_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v no_o occasion_n of_o increase_v the_o price_n of_o commodity_n at_o all_o therefore_o to_o say_v that_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n do_v by_o occasion_v a_o great_a sale_n of_o commodity_n occasion_n so_o great_a a_o increase_n in_o the_o price_n thereof_o as_o not_o at_o all_o to_o occasion_v a_o increase_n in_o the_o sale_n thereof_o be_v i_o say_v a_o plain_a contradiction_n whereby_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n can_v occasion_v a_o increase_n in_o the_o price_n of_o commodity_n full_o proportionable_a to_o such_o increase_n of_o money_n again_o if_o it_o be_v so_o yet_o this_o will_v incur_v no_o inconvenience_n as_o in_o the_o objection_n be_v intimate_v for_o see_v though_o commodity_n shall_v be_v upon_o this_o occasion_n twice_o as_o dear_a yet_o there_o be_v also_o twice_o as_o much_o money_n disperse_v among_o man_n whereby_o they_o be_v in_o as_o good_a a_o capacity_n to_o purchase_v as_o great_a a_o quantity_n of_o commodity_n as_o if_o have_v but_o half_a that_o money_n it_o shall_v go_v twice_o as_o far_o so_o that_o the_o inconvenience_n be_v no_o whit_n great_a than_o the_o advantage_n but_o to_o admit_v that_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n must_v needs_o occasion_v a_o proportionable_a increase_n in_o the_o price_n of_o commodity_n as_o it_o be_v already_o make_v evident_a that_o it_o will_v imply_v a_o contradiction_n so_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a absurdity_n in_o it_o for_o either_o a_o people_n have_v now_o ten_o time_n more_o money_n among_o they_o then_o former_o though_o they_o have_v also_o ten_o or_o 100_o time_n more_o commodity_n yet_o in_o this_o case_n commodity_n must_v needs_o be_v now_o ten_o time_n dear_a than_o former_o or_o else_o a_o people_n though_o they_o have_v now_o ten_o time_n more_o money_n among_o they_o then_o former_o can_v possible_o have_v more_o commodity_n among_o they_o then_o former_o either_o of_o which_o to_o affirm_v be_v i_o say_v absurd_a and_o contrary_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o will_v full_o appear_v in_o the_o section_n follow_v neither_o indeed_o if_o this_o be_v truth_n can_v the_o hoard_n up_o of_o money_n which_o be_v equivalent_a to_o a_o decrease_n thereof_o in_o quantity_n occasion_n a_o decrease_n of_o commodity_n as_o by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v appear_v that_o it_o do_v and_o by_o consequence_n a_o increase_n in_o the_o price_n thereof_o if_o it_o be_v reply_v that_o since_o the_o discovery_n of_o the_o mine_n in_o the_o west-indies_n whereby_o the_o world_n have_v be_v fill_v more_o full_a of_o money_n then_o former_o commodity_n be_v likewise_o grow_v much_o dear_a than_o former_o i_o confess_v that_o if_o there_o be_v now_o ten_o time_n more_o money_n in_o the_o world_n then_o former_o see_v it_o can_v be_v conceive_v that_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v capable_a of_o afford_v ten_o time_n more_o commodity_n then_o former_o it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n may_v occasion_v a_o increase_n in_o the_o price_n of_o commodity_n though_o not_o full_o proportionable_a neither_o to_o such_o increase_n of_o money_n for_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o commodity_n be_v so_o many_o time_n dear_a as_o money_n in_o the_o world_n be_v now_o of_o late_a year_n multiply_v yet_o see_v matter_n may_v be_v order_v so_o as_o the_o whole_a world_n may_v be_v able_a to_o afford_v ten_o time_n more_o plenty_n of_o commodity_n to_o any_o one_o land_n or_o nation_n then_o now_o it_o do_v &_o especial_o if_o the_o same_o land_n may_v be_v improve_v so_o as_o to_o yield_v much_o more_o commodity_n out_o of_o its_o own_o bowel_n then_o for_o the_o present_a through_o the_o extreme_a poverty_n of_o the_o people_n and_o deadness_n of_o trading_n man_n can_v find_v sale_n for_o in_o this_o case_n if_o the_o money_n in_o that_o land_n be_v ten_o time_n more_o than_o it_o be_v it_o may_v soon_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o there_o will_v be_v ten_o time_n as_o much_o commodity_n to_o be_v sell_v for_o money_n whereby_o the_o price_n thereof_o as_o i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n hereafter_o to_o observe_v will_v be_v keep_v from_o rise_v and_o thus_o this_o scruple_n i_o suppose_v be_v full_o remove_v to_o proceed_v therefore_o to_o the_o proof_n of_o what_o be_v before_o assert_v i_o say_v first_o that_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n can_v possible_o occasion_v a_o increase_n in_o the_o price_n of_o comodity_n or_o any_o other_o inconvenience_n but_o by_o increase_v the_o sale_n of_o commodity_n for_o a_o increase_n of_o money_n can_v produce_v no_o evil_a but_o what_o it_o do_v by_o augment_v the_o quantity_n of_o that_o which_o be_v either_o keep_v by_o or_o lay_v out_o the_o quantity_n of_o that_o which_o be_v keep_v by_o be_v augment_v do_v indeed_o embolden_v man_n to_o spend_v the_o more_o free_o through_o which_o as_o people_n live_v the_o more_o comfortabe_o so_o the_o sale_n of_o commodity_n that_o be_v trade_n be_v so_o much_o the_o quick_a but_o beside_o this_o i_o say_v the_o increase_n of_o that_o which_o lie_v by_o occasion_n no_o inconvenience_n other_o than_o if_o it_o be_v so_o much_o brass_n or_o leather_n lie_v by_o except_o what_o it_o do_v by_o hinder_v the_o sale_n of_o so_o much_o commodity_n as_o by_o the_o currant_n thereof_o will_v be_v return_v yet_o this_o inconvenience_n be_v not_o to_o be_v impute_v to_o the_o increase_n of_o money_n but_o rather_o to_o the_o contrary_a for_o that_o so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v keep_v by_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o it_o be_v not_o increase_v now_o that_o on_o the_o other_o side_n by_o increase_v the_o quantity_n of_o
