Since the first day of the opening of the bank, there has not been less than 100 people at the door of the bank, and this number seems to be increasing, and even some small counties around Chang'an City have people who come to Chang'an City specifically to take a look at the bank.

Of course, because there are no banks in small counties, most of them don't come to open accounts and save money, and almost all of them come to exchange paper money to see what is new.

Seven days later, instead of decreasing, the number of people who came to exchange banknotes showed an increasing trend, and as a result, in the afternoon of the same day, there was an embarrassing thing in Datang Bank, all the banknotes were exchanged, and the current bank can only handle the business of opening accounts and deposits, and cannot carry out the exchange business.

Although the process of banknotes is very complicated, and the problem of anti-counterfeiting must be taken into account, Zhang Nan is still surprised by the consumption rate of banknotes, in order to prepare for the opening of the bank, Zhang Nan printed at least 10 million banknotes, but they were still redeemed.

However, what makes Zhang Nan happy is that after the people of Datang get the banknotes, although most of them will collect a few pieces, they still slowly begin to circulate paper money in the market, and now the paper money and copper coins are both the currency of Datang in circulation.

What Zhang Nan could do was to speed up the printing of banknotes, but when Zhang Nan went to the printing house for the second time to urge the banknotes, the workers of the printing house told Zhang Nan a news that surprised Zhang Nan.

Comrade Li Er actually took away 10 million yuan of banknotes without permission, and he didn't know what it was for.

When Zhang Nan heard this, he was shocked, Comrade Li Er took 10 million yuan, and he would definitely not take it out for the people to exchange, the biggest possibility is to keep it for himself, this is a big problem.

Although this 10 million yuan is not enough to cause inflation in the entire Datang, it is not a good idea.

If Comrade Li Er prints when he has no money, prints when he has no money, or just to satisfy his greed for money, it won't be long before this banknote becomes waste.

Thinking of this, Zhang Nan did not hesitate, and directly rode into the palace to find Comrade Li Er.

Zhang Nan saw Comrade Li Er in the imperial study, and even took it, Zhang Nan also saw the 10 million paper money that Comrade Li Er took away, and the 10 million paper money blocked Comrade Li Er's imperial study tightly, Zhang Nan had to be careful when walking, Zhang Nan was also afraid that such a high banknote would fall and kill him directly.

As soon as he saw Zhang Nan coming, Li Er was so happy that he glanced at him like a Maitreya Buddha, his eyes were gone, and then he said: "Qingquan, you have made a great contribution this time, with this banknote, won't my Datang money run out?" In this way, then why don't I talk about being rich in Datang? ”

Hearing Li Er say this, Zhang Nan also shook his head helplessly.

Although Zhang Nan knew that there was not much difference between going to sweep Comrade Li Er's interest when Comrade Li Er's head was on his head and touching the tiger's buttocks, Zhang Nan still had to touch this tiger's buttocks, not only Zhang Nan wanted to touch it, but Zhang Nan also had to fan the tiger's ass fiercely.

"Your Majesty, you should hand over this money to the minister, and the minister will take it to the bank and let the staff exchange it for the people." Zhang Nan said expressionlessly.

"How's that going to work? This is my money, I keep it useful, you just let the printing house print it, why are you staring at my money? When Comrade Li Er heard Zhang Nan say this, he waved his hand impatiently, as if Zhang Nan was a fly.

Seeing Li Er's appearance, Zhang Nan was also quite helpless, indeed, if he wanted to take out the money in his hands from a money fan like Li Er, it would be difficult to get to the sky, but Zhang Nan had no choice, this head could not be opened, if this head was opened, the consequences could be said to be disastrous.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that you don't plan to hand over this money to your ministers?"

"Of course, not only that, but now you immediately give me half of the money in the bank vault, I want to fill the treasury, anyway, the people have saved so much money, they can't all be emptied for a while, it's better to use it to fill the treasury." Li Er said as a matter of course.

"It can't be!"

When Zhang Nan said this, he almost shouted out, Zhang Nan thought that Comrade Li Er would have thoughts about the bank's money, but Zhang Nan didn't expect that Comrade Li Er would be so unpredictable about this matter.

"Your Majesty, what do you think a bank is? Is it the emperor's inner library? The ministers have already told the emperor how the bank makes money, how can you still put your idea on the copper coins in the vault? Zhang Nan said hurriedly, Zhang Nan couldn't help but be anxious, he was really afraid that Comrade Li Er wouldn't be able to think about it, so he pulled the money from the bank to the palace.

"What are you anxious about? I've sent someone to see it in the past few days, every day there are more people who save money and fewer people who withdraw money, even if half of it is brought to the treasury, nothing will go wrong, what are you afraid of? Li Er said nonchalantly.

"Your Majesty, this thing is absolutely impossible, the reason why paper money can now be exchanged and used with copper money one to one, is because it is worth so much, if the number of paper money is higher than the number of copper money, it will inevitably cause the depreciation of paper money, and then cause inflation, the people trust paper money, that is because they trust Datang, if one day they take paper and pen to exchange copper money, the bank can't take out the same amount of copper money for them, what can I do?" Zhang Nan persuaded bitterly.

"Is it that serious?" Comrade Li Er himself obviously did not encounter the seriousness of this matter, and kept asking Zhang Nan if it was true.

"Say this to the emperor, if the bank is operated properly, the economic prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is certain, but if the emperor is like this, then the economic depression will not be able to run, and then the emperor will wait to see the mourning everywhere." Zhang Nan said expressionlessly.

"It's just a matter of economic regression, after all, this thing can be slowly made up for by time, but what if our Datang loses credibility in the hearts of the people? Your Majesty, you must know that it is a terrible thing for the government to lose its credibility. ”

"A Western philosopher once said that once the emperor becomes the object of hatred, the good and bad things he does will arouse people's disgust with him. In the same way, when it comes to the country, if a country's government loses credibility, it will be irreparable no matter what it does. ”

"I just want to get some money to the treasury? As for it? You still say that the people will hate me? How is this possible? Li Er heard Zhang Nan say a lot, but finally didn't believe what Zhang Nan said.
