Zhao Ji took his sister shopping, bought a lot of things along the way, and the guards who came with him became laborers.

When she arrived at Shen's house, Huahua rushed out.

"It's ...... Flower! ”

Zhao Qianyu greeted him happily, and when he saw Huahua's tail tied to his hind legs, he couldn't help but be angry, "Who did it?" ”

In the past, Guoguo would do this, but now that she's older, she won't.

Zhuang honestly said honestly: "The Bao family's yakai is here." ”

"Wrap the ribbon?"

"Yes."

Nima!

The rumored kid who went to the house to uncover the tiles actually came?

Later, Zhao Qianyu was taken to a party with Guoguo, and Shen An also came out.

And with a little brat.

The little kid saluted very politely, "I've seen the king." ”

The cunning in his eyes made Zhao Ji feel that this child was not Lao Bao's species.

"Very naughty!"

Shen An looked very relaxed, not at all like being tossed by a bear child.

"The banknotes are out, and they're beautiful."

Zhao Ji took out a few banknotes.

"I know." Shen An said: "This is all the advice given by a certain person. ”

"Including those pens?"

"Yes."

Most of the words on the banknotes were written by Zhao Shu's imperial pen, which, according to Shen An, would increase the authority of the banknotes.

"I used it today."

"Congratulations."

Zhao Ji nodded, "I'm the first to use paper money, right?" ”

"Nope." Shen An cruelly deprived him of this sneer, "The first one to use is Guoguo." ”

"What do you mean?" When Zhao Ji heard that it was Guoguo, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Where does a girl use paper money?

"Guoguo took a consistent bill and went to buy a bunch of candy and came back."

"The merchant is willing to take it?"

Zhao Ji felt that this was impossible, and immediately knew that he was wrong.

Shen An said proudly: "Those businessmen recognize her, don't say it's consistent, they dare to accept it." ”

Shen An is not short of this money, if the paper money is not worth much, it is better, so that Shen An owes them a favor.

Shen An's favor is rare!

If you get it right, maybe you will become the second Wang Tiande.

"Do you have faith?"

Zhao Ji has been pondering the matter of paper money recently, and the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that this matter is serious.

If the Great Song Dynasty wants to innovate, money is the foundation. The shallow foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, which was trapped in the money shortage, made the traditional innovation seem a little congenitally insufficient.

Redundant soldiers, redundant officers, redundant expenses...... agriculture, taxation, army building, ...... These national elements are closely linked to money. It's easy to do things with a lot of money, but if you don't have money, you can only live a hard life.

Later, Wang Anshi aimed at the money, and after all kinds of means, the money was in hand, but it also caused chaos.

The birth of paper money is an attempt, and if successful, it will lay a solid foundation for the future New Deal.

"Your vision is far-reaching, and the first step is to grasp the lifeblood of innovation, money."

Zhao Ji praised: "When others mention innovation and the New Deal, they are vigorous, but you are squatting at home, doing something for a while, and making something for a while, and the situation is slowly turning around...... At the beginning, you said that you can't be anxious, and those opponents will try to see the dagger, and finally join forces to bury the New Deal. I didn't think so at the time, but now I have a lot of insights. ”

"So-and-so is just lazy." Shen An casually perfunctory Zhao Ji.

"You're not lazy." Zhao Ji sighed: "You are doing a lot of things on the side, but you have done a lot of big things. Drill of the Xiang Army and the Forbidden Army...... Jin Feidan, telescopes, and the diversion of the Yellow River...... A lot of great things have been done, but there is not much opposition, and this is the effect of moisturizing things silently, and I now realize it. ”

"That's good." Shen An is still a master with a light and breezy demeanor, but the sorrow in his heart is almost rushing out.

Later, Zhao Ji took his sister back to the palace.

"King, summoned by the officials."

Zhao Ji remembered the few attendants who followed him before, so he said to his sister: "You go and distribute the things to them, and if you want to go out when you go back, just say, the eldest brother will take you out." ”

Zhao Qianyu's little face immediately became more radiant, and his eyes were round: "Big brother, can you still go out in the future?" They won't allow it! ”

"They don't allow it, big brother will."

Zhao Ji smiled, this was a rare moment of relaxation for him, and after a while, he would face a challenge from his father.

"Please, my lord."

I saw Zhao Shu all the way, and Zhao Ji stood there quietly.

"Why do you want those merchants to exchange dark incense for copper coins?" Zhao Shu had already figured out the cause and effect of this matter, so he was not very happy, "You gave the banknotes, but asked them to exchange them for copper coins in the dark incense, and they also exchanged more than one penny for every hundred wen......"

What is this?

"You're cheating!" Zhao Shu's anger came up, "Tempt him with profit!" But those banknotes have been replaced with copper coins, what's the use? What is paper money used for? ”

In his opinion, the people will definitely exchange paper money for copper money, and no amount of money is enough to change it.

"Banknotes work!" Zhao Ji said: "Before the reform of Shang Ying, the new policy can be carried out smoothly. And if paper money wants to win the trust of the people, the first thing is to make them believe that paper money can be exchanged for gold, silver and copper, otherwise the people will not believe it......"

"But they will keep changing ......" Zhao Shu felt that this son was a little idealized, "How long can Da Song last?" ”

Once the copper coins and gold and silver are exchanged, the paper money becomes waste paper.

"This will collapse!" Zhao Shu sensed the crisis, and he even wanted to suspend the issuance of banknotes.

He glanced at his son to see his horror.

Zhao Ji said very seriously: "But Daddy, those banknotes...... They're just paper! ”

Bang!

Zhao Shu seemed to hear the explosion thunder out of thin air.

He muttered, "They're paper ......."

"Yes." Zhao Ji felt that his father's understanding of finance was still a little biased, "They are just paper, and it is the DPRK that gives them value." If you want to exchange, it is also of equal value, and the DPRK and China will not lose! ”

The banknotes that are sent out will be exchanged for real money, which will not run away when it is lost in the treasury......

"Paper money will be issued less first, and when those people see that they can exchange copper coins, they will slowly accept it. The merchants saw the benefits of the portability of paper money, and they only had to carry a few of them with them, so they didn't have to trade with copper coins in a convoy as they used to do......"

Zhao Ji said seriously: "Daddy, businessmen are the most attentive group of people, and the first purchase of paper money by Dark Fragrance will drive a large number of businessmen. ”

The commerce of the Great Song Dynasty was developed, and the merchants had long been disgusted with the use of copper coins to trade, so they made Jiaozi.

"This is the case with the money tickets that Dark Incense made before, the businessmen are relieved of Dark Incense, so they are willing to accept the paper money issued by Dark Incense, so the court may make them trust? That's the key. ”

"Don't spam it!" Zhao Ji finally said: "This is the basis for the trust of businessmen. ”

Zhao Shu was a little shocked by these words, "If you exchange for one more article for every hundred wen, the people will find a way to get paper money, but ...... No, the DPRK and China will issue less banknotes, where will they get them? ”

He looked at his son with relief and surprise in his eyes, "How did you figure this out?" ”

Take advantage of the shortcomings of the people's greed for small and cheap to speculate on paper money, and then use the mentality of merchants looking forward to paper money to issue paper money in small quantities...... If everything goes well......

"In the future, it will slowly increase, and after a few years, the paper money of the Great Song Dynasty will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and I am afraid that even the Liao people will use it."

The more Zhao Shu thought about it, the more excited he became, "When the time comes, everyone in the world will have paper money, and whoever dares to say that they don't need it will be a public enemy...... Good! Good! Good! ”

He shouted three times in a row, and then ordered: "Reward the prince's banknotes." ”

Belch!

Zhao Ji felt that his thinking was very clear, and he should be rewarded, but he didn't expect his father to give him banknotes......

Is this revenge?

Definitely.

When the father was educated by his son, he had an understanding of gradual financial reform.

Shame on you?

Zhao Shu felt a little embarrassed, so he mischievously rewarded his son with banknotes.

"Just use it!"

He couldn't help but laugh when he looked at his son's dull face.

……

The holidays continue......

When he went to the office on the first day, Han Qi was surprised to find that there were people outside the courtyard to collect things.

"Is there any banknotes?"

A man sneakily walked over, first asked a few officials, and then walked to Han Qi's side without knowing whether he was alive or dead.

It was late in the first month, and visibility was not very good at the moment.

The man walked over quietly, sniffed, and asked, "Is there any banknote?" ”

it!

This was actually asked by Han Qi here!

At this moment, Han Qi asked like a ghost, "What price?" ”

"Ninety-eight texts, if it is many, ninety-nine texts will also be made."

"So tall?"

A lot of banknotes were quietly issued on the New Year's Day, and most of the money held by important ministers and clansmen was held. But everyone is looking for fun during the New Year, not for depression, so they put away the banknotes, thinking that they will try to use them after the New Year.

But now someone is actually giving copper money to collect paper money?

And it turned out to be a high price.

Counting the cost of running errands, and the difficulty of waiting for business in the cold wind, 100 wen banknotes for 98 copper coins is really not much, or even a loss.

But there are still people who are willing to exchange, which shows that the firmness of paper money has gradually taken root in the hearts of the people.

Why is that?

Han Qi, who had been on vacation, asked puzzledly: "Ninety-nine Wen is also accepted?" How do you make money? ”

The man sniffed, put his hands into his cuffs, and said proudly: "Dark incense will pay for it, and one hundred and one will be given to one hundred and one yuan." ”

How could it be?

Han Qi was suddenly anxious, and the man chattered: "Do you have banknotes?" If there is one, the villain will immediately exchange it for copper coins......"

"Han Xiang came so early!"

At this time, Zeng Gongliang came from afar, and he smiled and said hello.

The man took a sluggish step back, "You are...... Are you Han Sang? ”

it!

This exchange of banknotes was actually asked by Han Qi here, and it was really ...... It's hard to put into words!

Han Qi was holding back the anger in his heart, and after the palace door opened, he hurried to see Zhao Shu.

If you don't count the Great Pilgrimage, today is the first day of the New Year's Council.

Zhao Shu's spirit was good, so when he saw that Han Qi's face was not good-looking, he smiled and said, "Why is Han Qing angry?" ”

"The minister dares to ask Your Majesty, who decided the matter of exchanging this banknote for one hundred and one pennies? If this continues, no amount of banknotes will be in vain......"
