After Liu De returned to the county guard yamen, he went to call the master father Yan over, and by the way, the master father Yan called the lord of Hedong County, Bo also.

About half an hour later, the master father Yan led an official in his thirties to Liu De.

"The minister greets His Highness......"

"The minister greets His Highness......"

The two bowed in prayer.

"Two of you, please get ......" Liu De said kindly: "Please sit ......"

Ask the two of them to prepare a seat and sit down.

Liu De looked at the lord of Hedong County, who came with his father, according to the archives, this person's surname is Cao, and he can also be related to Cao Shou, the Marquis of Pingyang. At that time, his father was a slave under Cao Shou's grandfather Cao Shen, because he was diligent and studious, he was valued by Cao Shen and accepted as a righteous son.

"Cao Aiqing......" Liu De sat down and said with a smile: "Please introduce me to the system of Pingjia......"

Although Yiwan explained some of Pingjia's basic knowledge to Liu De, she is a woman in the end, and her understanding is not too detailed, at least, what does Pingjia rely on to formulate and determine prices? How did the government and the people agree with Pingjia's ruling? These are not what Yi Wan can know, so Liu De needs an official person to answer his questions.

"No!" Cao Zhi has a very strong Hedong accent, Liu De listens like a Cantonese speaker in later generations, and he always feels that he chews words and chews words, which is a little difficult, but the impact is not great, and he can hear clearly.

"His Royal Highness Qiqi ......" Cao Zhi is the main secretary, and he is responsible for civil affairs. Therefore, he was very clear about Pingjia, and after organizing the language, he introduced: "Pingjia. The system of the former dynasty is also evolved! ”

"En......" Liu De nodded slightly when he heard this, this is a new knowledge, but then again, basically all the policies, systems and laws of the early Han Dynasty can find a shadow in the Qin Law, and even many simply change the Qin Law and then continue to implement it.

"However, Qin's law is strict. The first emperor then issued an edict that 'God thinks things are peaceful', and ordered the system of Pingjia to be implemented, and allowed the merchants and people in all markets in the world to use their power to bulldoze Jia alone. Negotiate prices, especially those purchased by the government! Cao Zhi cleared his throat and continued: "Taking the minister as an example, at the beginning of each year, the minister has to communicate with the citizens of Anyi and the Pingjia of each set. Discuss prices. And then it will be published under the dew! ”

Liu De felt more and more interesting when he heard it, didn't this Pingjia system still bear the responsibilities of the Industrial and Commercial Price Bureau in later generations.

Although, it sounds like this pingja can only be used for transactions between merchants and the government most of the time.

But on the other hand, a slight change can also be used as a referee when merchants and people trade.

Liu De remembered what he had just seen and heard in the Anyi market, didn't that Zhang surnamed Pingjia meddle in businessmen and people's transactions?

It can be seen that there is still room for manipulation in the Pingja system.

But Liu De is more concerned about the prices negotiated between Pingjia and the government at the moment, including what?

Obviously. This is an important window to understand the game between the grassroots government and the local tyrants at this time.

Cao Zhi continued: "In addition, the government collects taxes every year, and if the people pay them in kind. Also according to the system of Pingjia! ”

This sentence fell on Liu De's ears like a bomb, which made Liu De feel energetic all of a sudden.

Originally, Liu De was still a little confused, and he had no clue about many things, but Cao Zhi's words immediately opened the window for him.

Liu De immediately asked, "Is there a law?" ”

This is a key issue, and as long as the relevant legal provisions are found, Liu De can use it as a basis for his plan.

Liu De also understood why after he raised the grain protection price, the merchants and people in Guanzhong had almost no big reaction to the grain, the reason turned out that here, the Liu family had already carried out some similar policies, but they did not directly pick out the minimum price and the highest price like Liu De.

But for most businessmen, setting a minimum price and a maximum price is just a step forward on the basis of the Pingjia system, so they can accept it and understand.

Because the Pinja system brings them more benefits than the benefits that are damaged!

Just think about Bai Juyi's "Charcoal Seller" in later generations and look at the Pingjia system of the old Liu family, even if it is a pig, it is obvious that the Pingjia system is protecting most businessmen.

Of course, the way also protects the interests of some farmers.

"Your Highness Qiqi......" Cao Zhi nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

"Han Law. Jin Bulu has an order: Those who are not money will be counted in October! ”

Liu De listened, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became thicker.

No wonder Liu Pengzu fell in love with Pingjia, and Liu De now also fell in love with Pingjia.

It is just necessary to conduct a careful research and arrangement, consult with his courtiers, and approve it.

Obviously, this law includes all commodities, as long as they are not money, within the scope of Pingjia, including, but not limited to, firewood, rice, oil, and salt.

Simply put, if improved, perfected, and strengthened, it can become the cornerstone of an empire.

Not to mention anything else, as long as you can make a ratio of gold to copper coins that is popular in the world, then you will immediately pull the Han family into the gold standard system.

Even if Liu De doesn't know much about finance, he knows how important a standard monetary system is to a country!

The gold reserves of millions of gold in the Han Dynasty can be released in an instant, turning into a huge source of wealth and social price stability.

"I'm going to mint five baht in gold!" Liu De thought in his heart: "In parallel with the copper five baht, through guò to regulate the currency circulation, I can easily control the world!" ”

Liu De remembered that Liu Che also minted platinum coins in history, but that little pig was obviously not a traverser, so his platinum coins finally became Chang Gong's gold yuan coupons, and no one asked for them when they were thrown on the ground.

But Liu De doesn't need to issue the kind of mythical items that are worth a thousand gold in a deerskin, he only needs to issue and mint a gold coin with the same weight as a five-baht coin, which can play a role ten times and a thousand times more than those flashy deer skins, without any sequelae.

Of course, it's no wonder that Liu Che didn't know how to mint gold coins.

It's really due to the limitations of the times.

For now, if Liu De is not a traverser, he can't imagine that he can play the gold standard.

Even if he was a traverser, he was well aware that he still had a lot of work to do before the gold standard.

First of all, the first rule is that the five-baht coin must be eliminated from all other coins on the market, so that the whole country can share a currency, and if you can't do this, you can't even have a unified currency, so don't talk about the gold standard.

And once the gold standard was established, Liu De could use guò currency to control the financial economy of the surrounding barbarians and even distant countries.

"It's a currency war!" Liu De thought to himself. (To be continued......)
