Chapter 1347: Shocking Wealth
"This is the work of the royal line!" Li Yi glanced at Wang Anshi next to him, "Moreover, we can make a schedule." In the first three years, we will gradually exchange the gold and silver circulating in the market, reserve them in the Royal Bank, and gradually use paper money to enter the circulation market. In addition, a period can be determined, which can be ten, or even twenty years, or longer. During this period, we want to establish the authority of paper money, so that the common people can freely exchange the paper money for gold, of course, even if the common people get the gold, it cannot be circulated in the market! ”
"But ......" Wang Anshi frowned, "If we look at the current market demand, the gold we reserve cannot fully meet the needs, and if the people exchange the paper money in their hands for gold, then we will go bankrupt!" ”
Li Yi laughed and said, "This problem doesn't actually exist. First of all, we can unite the big merchants and capitalists of the empire and get them to support the imperial banknotes, adopt them in their transactions, and deposit their gold and silver in the imperial bank. It is believed that many businessmen and capitalists will support the government. ”
After a pause, Li Yi continued: "Of course, I will also try to convince them. In addition, the salaries of government officials and the salaries of military officers and soldiers will be paid in paper money, and they, as the basic force of the empire, will also support the empire. The difficulty is also in the first few years, as long as we stabilize the value of paper money in these few years, and gradually establish the authority and credibility of paper money, then the people will gradually accept paper money! ”
Wang Anshi pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "If the major businessmen are willing to accept paper money and support paper money, the problem will not be very serious. ”
"Don't worry, after a while, I will gather the merchants and find a way to convince them." Li Yi smiled and said, "In addition, we must continue to develop new printing technologies." It is necessary to ensure technological leadership. Before the banknote is officially issued, a batch of samples must be made. It was then sent to all parts of the empire so that the people could familiarize themselves with the banknotes first, so that the people would know how to distinguish real banknotes from counterfeit banknotes. It's all very nuanced work, and you have to assign special people to be in charge! ”
Both nodded, and it was clear that only by doing all this preliminary work in place could some unexpected troubles be avoided in the future.
Li Yi said: "For the face value of the banknotes, although we have a general idea before, but before the issuance, you must do a full investigation, in a more thorough grasp of the needs of the market, especially the actual consumption of the people's daily life, the use of currency, and then decide the amount of currency issued in various denominations, so as to reduce trouble, and lay the foundation for the promotion of banknotes!" ”
Both of them nodded hurriedly, obviously, the emperor was very careful and thoughtful, if the issuance of paper money can not meet the basic needs of the market, resulting in the use of paper money is extremely inconvenient, then it will affect the people's recognition of paper money, and to promote and popularize the use of paper money, it will produce greater trouble.
Looking at Lu Su and Wang Anshi, Li Yi waved his hand and said: "Okay, you have done a good job, although there are still many difficulties to be solved, but I believe that as long as we work together, then we can establish a complete paper money system, and in this way, make the empire stronger." ”
………………
The time soon came to December of the eleventh year of Tang Wude, the Great Dynasty Meeting.
Emperor Wude Li Yi sits on the dragon platform of his Jinluan Palace.
The ministers got up after bowing three times and nine times, and Zhong Xuan, the head of the household, couldn't help but walk out immediately, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know...... I don't know what happened to the bank? ”
Now half a year has passed since Li Yi proposed to issue banknotes and create the Datang Royal Bank.
Due to the huge size of the Datang Royal Chamber of Commerce, in a short period of time, banks have blossomed everywhere. And because of Emperor Wude's prestige among the people, the people immediately trusted the Datang Royal Bank. I heard that I took too much deposit, but I don't know how much it is.
So, when Zhong Miao asked, the officials also showed concern.
Li Yi's face trembled slightly, he couldn't see it if he didn't look carefully, and he said it in his heart to scare you ancients who had never seen money in a bank, and waved his hand calmly: "Where is Lu Su?" Tell them about it. ”
"Yes!" Lu Su walked out and saluted first. When facing his colleagues, he was already trembling with excitement, and said in a trembling voice, "Accumulated deposits from people from all over the world......"
The officials immediately pricked up their ears.
Pang Tong touched Chaotian's nose and muttered, "How much does this cost?" ”
Lao Jia Xu touched his beard, his eyes rolled and he didn't speak.
Guo Jia responded: "What...... Why do you have to have 10 million? ”
Xun Yu is the most proficient in internal affairs in the Military Aircraft Department, and disagreed: "10 million is too little, it is estimated that it is around 30 million......"
Xu Shu and the others nodded, this is the net income of the treasury for a year after the expenditure, and they still agree with it.
Under the expectation of hundreds of officials, Lu Su finally shouted loudly: "One trillion guan." ”
In a rich country, it is normal for the private wealth to be 1,000 times higher than the national treasury. What's more, the territory ruled by Li Yi is huge and rich. Datang Royal Bank is not to mention the wealth of the two Intercontinental banks in later generations. There are trillions, which is not much.
The pins in the main hall can be heard.
"Ten thousand?" Tian Feng shook his head and said, "This is too little." ”
"And 100 million! There is another 100 million behind 10,000! Frustrated, his hands trembled uncontrollably.
"A trillion guan?!"
"When the ......"
"When the ......"
……
The Tang royal guards, who had experienced a hundred battles around and killed people without blinking, fell to the ground with weapons in their hands.
"Oops!" Lao Jia Xu rolled his eyes and fell down clutching his chest.
When Pang Tongyi held on, Guo Jia also hurriedly stepped forward to pinch the middle, which made Lao Jia Xu wake up again in the moment before he fell into a coma.
"Plop ......"
"Plop ......"
……
"Yan Shenggong" Lao Kong Rong, Lao Cheng Yu and Wang Lang and others were not so lucky, and they fainted to the ground at that time.
The rest of the ministers were weak and trembling with their soles on their feet, and their hands were shaking and they couldn't speak.
The ministers were shocked!
"A trillion guan!" Zhong Xuan's face flushed, once upon a time, when he looked at the treasury of the Tang Dynasty, when there were 50 million yuan, he felt that the prosperous era had come. There was no dynasty where the treasury was so rich. But now, there is an extra trillion yuan here!
How many 50 million guan is a trillion guan? Zhong Xuan didn't count it clearly when he crossed his fingers, his red face turned white here, and he was in shock at that time.
As if the horn of fainting was blown, the generals were better here, and they were just trembling one by one. I saw Wenchen's side, and all the older ones had softened. The young man also rolled his eyes, and his whole body trembled like a beggar.
Such a scene also made Li Yi startled, he guessed that Baiguan would definitely be frightened, but he never guessed such an ending.
He shook his head, these people really hadn't seen money, and he got up and shouted, "Quick, quickly pass the imperial doctor." First save the elderly, pinch people, artificial respiration ......"
At the same time, Li Yixin said that he couldn't die, all of them were dead, and I would go there to find someone to top!
Soon, more than 100 imperial doctors from Hulala's Tai Hospital ran to the temple, and all of them came under the leadership of Lao Hua Tuo. The Jinluan Hall suddenly became an emergency room.
"Don't scare one to death!" Li Yi looked at the first aid people below, his hall is full of talents, and if one dies, it will be a great loss.
………………
Half an hour later.
The praise songs on the Jinluan Hall were tactful, and the hundreds of officials who came to life blushed one by one and sang praises. What an emperor through the ages, a prosperous dynasty, thousands of generations, a domination of the world, and those who don't want money have all sung it.
Lu Suxin said, when I knew the news, I also fainted, and many branch presidents also fainted. The Datang Royal Chamber of Commerce is considered rich, with a profit of tens of millions a year. However, compared with Datang Royal Bank, even if the Datang Royal Chamber of Commerce is a hundred years, it will not be able to earn the number of deposits of Datang Royal Bank.
In a short period of time, Datang Royal Bank has absorbed trillions of wealth. The ministers "trembled", and although Zhong Xuan, the head of the household, was rescued, he almost went into shock several times later. The heart said that I have collected taxes all my life, and I don't have so much money when it all adds up.
Lao Jia twisted his beard and said with a sigh: "When will the imperial court be able to have so much money......
When Baiguan heard this, he couldn't help but nod.
Li Yi was stunned for a moment, he understood the thoughts of the hundred officials, and said with a smile on the dragon platform: "The money in this bank is also from the state." You can use some of ......"
"You can spend it!" Hubu Shangshu Zhong Xuan was most worried about such a thing, and when he heard this, he was stunned, his face flashed red, and he went into shock again.
"It can cost a trillion yuan!"
"Ugh!" The generals were like being hammered, and they shook their bodies again and again.
"Wow!" Once again, civilian officials fainted en masse.
Fortunately, the imperial doctors are on standby, pricking needles and pricking needles here, blowing and blowing, pinching people's hearts, pinching feet and necks, and here is another busy job.
After a while, hundreds of officials "came alive".
"If you can use it, won't the money of the court be counted!"
"Don't worry about natural disasters anymore!"
"Some are money, take the money and stone it to death!"
……
The ministers thought excitedly.
Li Yi saw their thoughts, and said very seriously: "Everyone, Aiqing, this money belongs to the people's existence in the country, and it must not be spent indiscriminately. Lu Su, you must mobilize elites, set up a special planning department, and calculate the way to pay interest and recover interest. Establish a strict 'reserve reserve', and it must not be insolvent! ”
Reserve refers to the cash prepared by financial institutions to ensure that customers need to withdraw deposits and liquidate funds. If the reserve requirement ratio is too low, it will make it difficult to withdraw and liquidate, and then the entire financial system will collapse.
