Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen did not mention the matter of the new law from the beginning, and in fact, since Wang Chengen was sent out yesterday and asked him to personally take charge of the rough stone of the Cullinan diamond, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen's whole person seemed to be awake, and his ability to govern and his patience in governing were instantly restored, even better than when he was just reborn!

People are not afraid of low tide, not afraid of depression, afraid of no enthusiasm, and when they have enthusiasm, they forget what to do, how to fly, they can fly if they want to, and they can fly high, which is the most important thing, to fight! Be angry!

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen didn't want to mention the new law at all, he knew that mentioning it was also in vain, since he let the female official go to the court, it was equivalent to taking an important step towards the new law! Why bother these old men to nod their heads in acknowledgment of his new law? He wants to speed up, try his best to increase the number of senior officials of the Ming Dynasty, use his own people from all over the country, and use Zhou Yanru's gang to quickly eliminate these old ministers, he has let these ministers know their new law, as long as they do it in accordance with the new law in the future, that's it! Why do they have to nod their heads in acknowledgement?

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen's political methods were at least the level of a provincial governor, and he did not believe that with the political experience he had accumulated in two lifetimes, he could not help him complete the revival of the Ming Empire! All he needs is patience!

Patience is the most important thing for everyone! Those who are impatient will achieve nothing!

Ming Yizong Zhu was cast in 1628 in the first year of Chongzhen (1628-1644). "Continuation of the General Examination of Literature" contains: In December of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the second department of household workers entered Chongzhen's new money style, and the emperor ordered each penny to weigh one penny and three cents. Make sure the treasure is wonderful. It is not necessary to publish the word "household work". Qian Wenzhen's book. The word "Tong" of Tongbao is divided into single point and double point. There are four kinds of small flat, when two, when five, and when ten types of big money. The diameter of the small flat money is generally 2.45 cm (the maximum diameter measured is 2.47 cm) and weighs 3 grams, when the diameter of the second coin is generally 2.7 cm, it weighs 3.7 grams, and when the diameter of the five coins is 3.3 cm, it weighs 6.2 grams, and the Nandu money is lighter.

Chongzhen Tongbao Coin is the first coinage peak in the history of Chinese currency, and its varieties are complex and varied, especially its complicated back text and meaning. Some of them are still difficult to identify.

There is no pattern to the severity of the process. Qian Wen Chongzhen Tongbao four characters, written in regular script, from top to bottom and right to left straight reading. There are stars and moons on the back of the money, and some have galloping horse graphics, commonly known as running horse Chongzhen. In addition, there is a kind of Baoquan character with Manchu on the back, which is said to have been minted by the Qing soldiers when they entered the customs, and some people suspect that it may be private coinage. Xiaoping, fold two, fold five money back text is complicated and chaotic, there are weight, record the heavenly stem, remember the bureau, remember the ground, record the bureau and the value, auspicious money, etc., there are many names, too many to mention. Among them, the bare back and the flat money are the most. When the ten major coins are handed down without literature, if you see a literate. It will be a hypocrisy. In addition, Chongzhen Tongbao also has back money.

In the Ming Dynasty, silver was used as the legal tender in circulation, and silver and copper coins were used for large transactions and money for small numbers, and silver and copper coins formed the main body of currency. But in the early days of the Ming Dynasty, banknotes were used without money, and later changed to banknotes and money, mainly paper money, and the strange thing is that the Ming Dynasty only issued a kind of Daming treasure banknote banknote. In the Ming Dynasty, one emperor minted a kind of year money (there were also several generations of uncoined money), and a total of ten emperors minted year money. Because of the avoidance of the Yuan character of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, all coins in the Ming Dynasty were collectively referred to as Tongbao, and ingots were avoided.

The ministers didn't know why the emperor started the topic with Tongbao, and Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen took out a copper coin, "This kind of copper coin is a major obstacle to the economic recovery of the Ming Dynasty, especially the area under the personal control of Beizhili!" ”

Seeing that the emperor did not mention the matter of the new law, the strategy that a large group of Donglin Party ministers had long thought of to unite against the emperor failed, and everyone's eyes were on the newly recruited Hubu Shangshu Hou Sui who had recently been re-recruited into the temple by the emperor's holy decree.

"Due to the development of export trade with Japan and Europe, a large amount of silver flowed into the interior from overseas through the southeast coast of Guò. Although the "Hongwu Tongbao" copper coin was minted at the beginning of the country, and the treasure banknote was issued as legal tender in the eighth year of Hongwu, the copper coin was indiscriminately shaped and inconvenient to use, and the treasure banknote depreciated strictly, and silver inexorably became the main currency of public and private transactions. The convenience of the currency has suppressed the inflation caused by the chaos of the currency system in the early stage, and the economy has been able to develop. These are all ancient methods that have been used since the hands of Taizu, and they cannot be changed lightly. ”

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen nodded, and chose this Hou Sui, which is basically just one more old minister for the Donglin Party to come out and speak, and nothing can be changed! I haven't said how to change it yet, so you can't change it first!

"The Daming treasure banknote is the only banknote officially issued by the Ming Dynasty, which has been in circulation in the Ming Dynasty for more than 270 years. Ming Taizu Hongwu was built in eight years. Due to the lack of copper at that time, so Ming Hongwu promulgated the "banknote law" in seven years, set up the treasure banknote lifting division, and then set up papermaking, banknote printing two bureaus and treasure banknotes, two libraries. It was issued the following year under the name of Nanjing, Zhongshu Province. With a frame of about 30 centimeters high and a width of about 20 centimeters, it is the largest banknote in the world. The treasure banknote is divided into six grades: one run, five hundred wen, three hundred wen, two hundred wen, and one hundred wen.

However, due to the poor paper at that time, the Ming treasure banknote was difficult to last, and the Ming banknote was only issued and not received, neither demarcated, nor recycled the old banknotes, resulting in more and more banknotes circulating in the market, and the treasure banknotes were flooded, and the inflation and depreciation were extremely rapid in the year of issuance, and the people abandoned them one after another, ending in failure.

The open token system is dominated by paper money, but it also mints a lot of copper coins, and there are many varieties. The Ming Dynasty minted coins, starting from the middle of the Ming Dynasty, began to memorize the value of the Ming Dynasty, which was a characteristic of the Ming Dynasty copper coins, and had been affected until the end of the Qing Dynasty. And the coins of the Ming Dynasty, against the previous dynasty, are all treasures, and there are no ingots, mainly avoiding Zhu Yuanzhang's "yuan" word. Since Hongwu, Yongle, Xuande, Hongzhi, Jiajing, Longqing, Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi, Chongzhen and other currencies have been minted.

However, the core of the problem now is that when the common people buy a little grain, they have to carry a whole sack of copper coins, which is heavy and much, and they can only buy a small bag of rice, resulting in more money than goods, and it is heavier. "Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen did not refute Hou Sui's words, but continued to throw out the question, this can't be changed, that can't be changed, I won't tell you how to change, I only tell you what to do?
