In the north of the city, on the riverside, the original village of the people.

Zhao Ran sat in a wheelchair, looked at the river, and then looked at the river banks on the east and west sides, and kept thinking in his heart.

Next to him, Li Dayin was also sitting in a wheelchair, holding a thick planning plan in his hand, and he was comparing it.

It has been more than two months since the demolition of the riverbank began in August, and the demolition and relocation has been basically completed within three miles from the bridge foundation to the east and west, for which the Xiuqiu Charity Foundation has paid 280,000 taels of silver, of which 90 percent is used to purchase land, and the remaining 10 percent is used to resettle fishing villages such as the Bamboo Villages, and to pay hired workers to clean up dilapidated houses.

As for nail households, this is absolutely impossible.

This large-scale land requisition action, so that the relevant parties are really crazy, large and small officials, magnates, gentry, rich businessmen have tasted the taste of the feast, in more than two months, all the procedures have been given the green light, united as one, completed all matters one month ahead of schedule, the efficiency is high, so that Zhao Ran is very satisfied.

Zhao Ran planned to build a riverbank landscape belt in an area of two miles from east to west and 300 steps from north to south, and at the same time build a three-story villa building with a yard in it, a total of 100 buildings.

Li Dayin was a little puzzled after reading it: "Don't you build a bridge yet?"

Zhao Ran replied: "While building the bridge, we will engage in landscape belts, and strive to sell these 100 villas while building the bridge." I will offer 2,000 taels of silver for a building, and 200,000 taels will be recovered, isn't it expensive?"

Li Dayin was a little surprised: "Two thousand silver, I'm afraid I can't sell it......"

Zhao Ran beckoned behind him, Su Chuanyao stepped forward and handed over a rendering of the riverside landscape villa, Li Dayin took it and glanced at it, and immediately couldn't take his eyes off: "This, this, this, I'm afraid this is not a fairyland! No, no, then, leave me one, I can't sell them all." ”

"Can you sell it for two thousand silver?"

"Yes, that's amazing, tsk...... Beautiful......"

After admiring the drawings for a while, Li Dayin asked: "Zhiran said, what does this recycling mean by recycling 200,000 taels of silver?"

Zhao Ran said: "We just sent more than 200,000 taels, what do you think these guys will do with the money they make?"

Li Dayin thought for a while and said, "Go back to your hometown to buy land, and ......."

Zhao Ran said: "Cast into a big cake and bury it in the ground!"

Li Dayin smiled suddenly, and then nodded in acknowledgement: "That's true." ”

Zhao Ran sighed: "So, no matter how much silver is sent, this silver will be buried in the ground, Lao Li, we are short of silver!"

Li Dayin didn't know what Zhao Ran was referring to, and when he was thinking about it, he saw Liang Youhe, the commander of Shangyuan County, who was accompanied by the rear, bite Ling Congyun's ear twice to Ling Congyun, a disciple of Sanmao Pavilion, and Ling Congyun came up and said: "Teacher, Uncle Zhao, Wei Ming asked to see when the Treasure Money Division of the Household Department was raised." ”

Zhao Ran ordered with a smile: "Please come over." ”

A fat man squeezed out of the crowd behind, was led over by Ling Congyun, and bowed and saluted: "When the treasure money division of the lower official household department is raised, Wei Ming will meet Abbot Zhao and Li Yuan's envoy." ”

Zhao Ran introduced to Li Dayin: "Shi Tiju is an old man in the household, don't look at his age, but he is good at money and food. ”

Li Dayin nodded, and said to Shi Weiming: "Fortunately, fortunately." “

Su Chuanyao took out a wooden stool from the storage artifact, Shi Weiming sat down in fear, and said: "Abbot Zhao beckoned, the lower official is late, and please invite Abbot Haihan." What the abbot said last time, the lower official went back to check, our Daming silver class is mainly concentrated in Huguang, Beizhili, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places, the larger ones are Yunnan Central Silver Mine, Jizhou Pushui Mercury Mine, Zhejiang Pingyang Qingtian Silver Mine and so on. Last year, the household department had 38,000 taels of silver, and the Yunnan Central Bank had the first ......, accounting for 19,000 taels."

Li Dayin was a little incredulous when he heard this: "Wait a minute, Daming had less than 40,000 taels of silver in the silver mine last year?"

Shi Weiming nodded: "Exactly, the situation last year was good, the year before was 33,000 taels, and the year before was 30,000 ......."

Zhao Ran was also speechless when he heard it, and couldn't help asking, "Haven't you gone up to 50,000?"

Shi Weiming said: "There have been hundreds of thousands of years, and the Xuanzong Dynasty has been to 250,000 taels, but for hundreds of years, the mines have been almost dug up. ”

Daming silver mine is allowed to be run by the government and privately, and the household department is levied according to the proportion of three, which is called the class silver, and the amount of silver last year was 38,000 taels, which means that the total silver output is more than 100,000 taels.

100,000 taels a year, Daming is a country that lacks silver without any deductions.

At a time when silver has replaced copper as the currency in circulation on a large scale, this can well explain why silver has always been expensive and cheap on the market.

After talking about the silver output of the Ming Dynasty, Shi Weiming asked cautiously: "Abbot Zhao, you placed the lower officials in the treasure banknote department, you don't want to issue treasure money, right?"

Zhao Ran smiled and asked, "What do you think?"

Before Wei Ming could speak, Li Dayin had already spoken: "Why, I can't help it." No one wants the treasure banknotes anymore, and how much is issued is waste paper, so we can make money, but we can't mess around. ”

Shi Weiming didn't speak, but kept nodding his head like a chicken pecking rice, indicating his position.

Zhao Ran said: "The treasure money is actually a good thing, but it's a pity that the reputation has been lost, and everyone is terrified when they hear that it is ...... treasure money."

Li Dayin continued to shake his head: "It's not okay to change your name, as long as it's not gold, silver and copper money, it's not okay." ”

Zhao Ran said: "Don't worry, I don't want to engage in treasure money, I just want to try whether a small amount of silver money can work." ”

Shi Weiming was stunned: "Small silver ticket?"

Zhao Ran said: "The current silver ticket, the smallest denomination is five taels of silver, which is issued by some Jiangsu and Zhejiang money villages, but the effect is not good." What is really popular is the silver ticket of the big money village, but the amount is around fifty taels or one hundred taels, such a silver ticket is meaningless for the common people and small merchants and hawkers, and everyone still uses broken silver. My idea is to use the cultivation technology of Dajun Mountain to set up a small silver ticket printing workshop in the treasure banknote department, specializing in printing silver bills of one money, two money, five money, and one tael. “

Li Dayin said angrily: "What's the difference between this and treasure money? It's nothing more than changing from text and guan to money and two." “

Zhao Ran said: "Of course, there is a difference, the Treasure Banknote Division does not engage in compulsory issuance, and the Treasure Banknote Division sells small silver bills. Sell it to whom? Sell it to the big dealers. For example, when we print, we can put the name of Four Seasons Money Village on a small silver ticket, which is called Four Seasons Money Village issuance. Since the merchants and officials who use the silver tickets of the Four Seasons Money Village can accept the large amount of silver tickets of the Four Seasons Bank, of course, they can also accept the small amount of silver tickets of the Four Seasons Money Village, right? In the same way, the other major money banks are like this, and whoever buys the small silver notes printed by the Bao Banknote Division, we will print their names on the silver tickets. “
