Yan Rou gave Liu Bei a plan, and Liu Bei thought about it and knew that it was an excellent plan.

In any case, Yuan Shao had no reason not to agree, it would be of great benefit to him.

Moreover, Yuan Shao can make a symbolic crusade, and he can not send troops, so that he can get benefits, and of course Yuan Shao will not refuse.

But in case things go too far, and Yuan Shao and Ye Chen really fight, wouldn't it be better.

Liu Bei immediately instructed Yan Rou to do it.

Liu Bei's actions Ye Chen didn't pay attention, Liu Bei didn't have much of a threat to him, his reliance was Liu Xie, as long as Ye Chen was not affected by Liu Xie, or the impact was very small, then Ye Chen didn't have to care about Liu Bei's threat.

At this time, Ye Chen was calling the stewards of several workshops in the state pastor's mansion.

They came from Yuxian County.

"Steward Xu, how is the silver coin minted?" Ye Chen asked.

"My lord, now that millions of silver coins have been minted, it can be promoted in Youzhou." The steward who was asked came out and said.

Ye Chen nodded, this amount could currently meet his requirements and start implementing the plan.

The right to mint coins is a sign of domination, such as the previous Han Dynasty was forbidden to mint coins without permission, which is the manifestation of the right to rule.

Now, Ye Chen is planning to break this rule and mint coins by himself.

It's just that Ye Chen minted not copper coins, but silver coins and gold coins.

"Sun Qian, as the first promoter, the materials needed to build the city, and part of the payment must be silver or gold coins."

At this time, Sun Qian was organizing the construction of a new city in Jixian County, and was also called over by Ye Chen for a meeting.

"Yes, my lord, this gold coin has been seen by his subordinates, and it is very exquisite, so it should be fine." Sun Qian replied.

Sun Qian was confident that in addition to the exquisite manufacture and weight of gold and silver coins, the gold and silver were originally valuable.

Solving the matter of gold and silver coins, Ye Chen asked again: "Chen Gong, how is this water conservancy forging press manufactured?" ”

The hydraulic press, which was researched very early, is used to forge weapons and gold and silver coins, Ye Chen is quite concerned about this time, and today he specially called the craftsman in charge.

"Lord Yuye, we have researched a larger hydraulic press, and built two, one of which has been installed and started to operate, forging weapons for my Youzhou soldiers." The craftsman surnamed Chen quickly replied.

"Okay, you have to make a few more units, you can make a few small ones first, which are used to forge gold and silver coins, and after the Youzhou pilot, gold and silver coins will be promoted throughout the Han Dynasty, and a large number of gold and silver coins will be needed at that time." Ye Chen said.

Craftsman Chen and the craftsman in charge of the minting of gold and silver coins took over the task.

Ye Chen learned about all aspects of the workshop before letting his subordinates go back.

After the matter was arranged, Ye Chen began to arrange the promotion of gold and silver coins.

First of all, the major Ye family money houses in Youzhou have already stored a batch, because the checkout with those families is basically completed in the money bank, and then the money is transferred.

This is like the bank in later generations, simple and convenient, of course, some families will choose to withdraw the money, but there are also a large number of people who do not withdraw the money, so that Ye Chen's financial pressure will be much less.

After all, the pressure of casting three cities at the same time is not ordinarily great.

Once the gold and silver coins are in place, it's time to settle the bill.

"Hey, shopkeeper king, what is this? So beautiful? ”

"Steward Li, this is Lord Ye's newly minted gold and silver coins, which can be used as money, and my lord stipulates that if the payment between the Ye family and the Youzhou government reaches a certain amount, a part of it must be gold or silver coins."

The shopkeeper of the money village immediately explained to the other party.

When the other party heard this, he hesitated, and then asked about the value of gold and silver coins.

"I can't make a decision on this matter, I need to go back and tell the head of the family."

The other party is just in charge, and this matter is not for him to decide, so he needs to go back and despise it.

The other party proposed to bring back a gold and silver coin, and then asked their master to decide.

The king's shopkeeper did not stop him, and let him take it back.

Looking at the back of the other party's departure, the shopkeeper Wang showed a slight smile on his face, and he was not worried that the other party would not accept it.

First, the gold and silver coins are beautifully made, and the price is reasonable; The second is that Ye Chen has a strong rule, if he doesn't accept it, then he can't participate in all the projects and businesses of the Ye family and the government.

Especially the second one, the Ye family and Youzhou are now booming, and the families involved in it have all benefited greatly, and no one will give up.

Such scenes have been staged in major money banks in Youzhou.

And all these stewards went back to their heads of households.

"These gold and silver coins are really beautiful."

"The specs are exactly the same."

"It's really collectible."

"Accepted."

"Bring me all these gold and silver coins, and I'll collect them."

"Haha, it's much more convenient to carry gold and silver coins than that cart of copper coins."

"Go and ask if you can exchange copper coins for these gold and silver coins."

The gold and silver coins were surprisingly popular, and not only did these families accept gold and silver coins, but many even exchanged them for more.

Of course, there are also many family owners who carefully measure the weight of gold and silver coins, and when they measure them, they find that the quality of these gold and silver coins is passable, even if they cannot be used as currency, they will not lose money when collecting.

These people were shrewd people, and when they saw the value, they also understood that gold and silver coins were worth more than copper coins, and that they were easier to use.

It is not as convenient to carry a large cart of copper coins as to carry a bag of gold and silver coins.

"My lord, the promotion of this gold coin and silver coin is very smooth, and there is no family refusal." Sun Qian came back and reported.

In fact, Ye Chen had already received information from the intelligence agency, not only did they not refuse, but the gold and silver coins were very popular.

"Nice start." This gold coin and silver coin represent more than just a monetary reform, and will have a lot to do with it in the future.

After a large number of gold and silver coins are used, Ye Chen can make a fortune, so Ye Chen is very concerned and has been paying close attention to this matter.

"In addition, we do not offer to exchange copper coins for gold and silver coins for the time being, but they can be exchanged for the same amount of gold and silver." Ye Chen said again.

The same amount of gold and silver can be exchanged, which contains a lot of benefits.

Silver, in particular, is mixed with a small amount of other metals.

If it is less, you can't see how much benefit there is, but if it is large-scale, not hundreds of thousands of silver coins, but tens of thousands or even tens of millions of silver coins, then the value will be completely different.

Sun Qian received the order and went to do something.

Ye Chen sat alone, thinking quietly.

These gold coins and silver coins can not only make a lot of money, but also have a very important weight in politics in the future, so Ye Chen is more concerned and is already thinking about further use.
