Chapter 378 Drawings for the Construction of a First-Class City

Chapter 380

Fan Lihua and Cheng Dalei, who came to their senses, faced a mess in the house.

The table collapsed, the cups and plates were shattered, and the clothes of the two, including the bedding on the bed, were scattered on the floor, and some were even torn, and the floor was wet and smelled of wine.

Thinking of what happened just now, Fan Lihua was ashamed of herself. At the same time, he raised his head and quietly looked at Cheng Dalei. I thought that Cheng Dalei would be able to say a few words, but it can be seen that he was sitting on the ground, stunned, and didn't know what to think.

"Hey......" Fan Lihua called softly.

Cheng Dalei suddenly came back to his senses, just now he was checking the city construction drawings in his mind, but he was a little distracted. When I raised my head at this moment, I saw Fan Lihuaxiang's shoulders exposed, and her expression was shy and timid, and she couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He cautiously leaned over and grabbed Fan Lihua's hand, Fan Lihua lowered her head in shame, but did not resist.

Flustered, Cheng Dalei suddenly remembered something, and said solemnly: "Don't hurt me again this time." ”

"Well, I'll be small. ”

Hey, there's something wrong with that.

......

The next day was bright, and the sun was shining.

Everyone saw Cheng Dalei with bandages on his hands, but they didn't know what was going on. asked, Cheng Dalei was also silent and never answered.

Cheng Dalei nested in the study, studying the city construction drawings rewarded by the system.

At present, Qinchuan Pass has reached the fourth level, and if it develops further, it should be transformed into a city. In other words, a fifth-level cottage is equivalent to a first-level city.

There is still a difference between a city and a cottage.

In general, the cottage is a military fortress, and everything is in the service of war. And the city not only has an army, but also many living facilities.

Cheng Dalei looked at the drawings to understand what the specific requirements were from the fourth-level cottage to the first-level city.

First of all, the population is required to reach 100,000, and with the continuous addition of displaced people, coupled with the original population of the cottage, the total population of the cottage is about 50,000, which is not far from the goal.

A military policy office, which studies strategy, formation, and diplomacy.

One of the internal governments, researching production, planting, public security in the city, and so on.

Then the market, barracks, Dianjiangtai, medical hall, craftsman workshop, school and other facilities were originally available in Qinchuan Pass, and as long as they were slightly renovated, they could meet the requirements.

What caught Cheng Dalei's attention was one of the buildings: Qian Zhuang.

The function of a money bank is probably similar to that of a bank, but it is also very different from a bank. The main function of the money bank is the exchange of gold and silver, which converts gold into silver and silver into copper plates, and the money bank charges a certain percentage of the fee. In the past, large money houses also issued some silver bills, but now there is a shortage of soldiers, and no consortium can afford such credit, and now the silver bills are almost like blank paper.

Therefore, Cheng Dalei has never happened to walk the world with a million taels of silver tickets, and there are silver bills of one million taels of denominations, but no money dealer will redeem them for you.

Cheng Dalei thought about it, sent someone to call He Shen to the study, and briefly said his purpose.

"The big boss is ready to mint coins?" asked He Shen.

Cheng Dalei nodded, now there are many people in Qinchuan Pass, and the convergence of the population has contributed to the development of commerce. Occasionally, people buy and sell daily necessities such as cloth and pork. But the business model is still very rudimentary, and most of it is bartering.

The gold and silver of the empire are already scarce resources, not to mention Qinchuan Pass, there is not much in the entire empire. And things like copper plates are too heavy to use.

The currency of the empire was not uniform, and naturally gold and silver were exchangeable, but copper coins were privately minted by princes everywhere. So He Shen didn't feel strange about Cheng Dalei's thoughts. Now Qinchuan Pass has become everyone's nest, and I don't know how long it will be here, and coinage is also a natural thing.

"What style does the big boss plan to cast, do you want to make a pattern yourself?" He Shen asked, with his understanding of Cheng Dalei, it is estimated that Cheng Dalei will print a toad on the copper coin.

"It's not minting, it's printing, I want to print banknotes. ”

"Uh......" He Shen was stunned, and he didn't quite understand Cheng Dalei's words. The key was the word "banknotes", which he had heard for the first time.

Cheng Dalei had this idea for a long time, and the current monetary system of the empire is actually extremely backward. The purchasing power of gold and silver is there, but when it can be used, it has to be cut and weighed, and the quality of the copper plate is too heavy, and there is not even silk to make it.

After listening to Heshen, he thought about it for a long time, and then completely digested Cheng Dalei's words.

"Big boss, your idea is good, but it is estimated that it is difficult to implement. ”

"If there is any difficulty, we can build a banknote printing factory, determine the denomination, numbering, anti-counterfeiting, and slowly implement it, it should not be too difficult. ”

"But everyone is used to using gold and silver, and in everyone's hearts, as long as you can see and touch something, it is valuable. You tell them that they can buy something with a piece of paper, and you're afraid that they won't recognize it for a while. ”

Cheng Dalei nodded, and he also understood in his heart that He Shen was right, and the inherent concept cannot be changed in a moment. But this does not mean that Cheng Dalei's method is not feasible, but it is just a little difficult.

"It's better to build the banknote printing factory first, how to push it down, and then slowly figure out a way. ”

In Qinchuan Pass, Cheng Dalei still has absolute power. Although he felt that Cheng Dalei was a little whimsical, He Shen had no reason not to agree. He secretly wondered in his heart, wouldn't it be okay to print some copper coins casually, why do you need to be so troublesome.

In addition, Cheng Dalei also arranged several things. Taking advantage of the current agricultural slackness, the displaced people are recruited from all over the country, and only when more people move in, can the cottage develop.

In addition, let Xu Shenji and Liu Bei select talents and prepare for the establishment of the military policy government and the internal government. These two buildings are different from the city wall, they are not placed there and can be used, and the people who do not do things are just empty shells.

Cheng Dalei is responsible for printing money, and the pattern is very easy to do, nothing more than to draw a toad on it, and the denomination is easy to determine, one article, two articles, five articles, ten articles, and one hundred articles. The hardest thing is anti-counterfeiting......

If the banknotes issued by Toad Village can be opened, and in the end the entire Qinchuan Pass is in use, it will naturally attract people to imitate and forge them. If it could be printed by a casual person, wouldn't Cheng Dalei's achievements be ruined. Moreover, the cost of anti-counterfeiting should not be too high, if the cost of printing money is too high, it is also a huge consumption for today's cottages.

It's cheap and easy to use...... For this matter, the original people in Toad Village had no way.

Cheng Dalei paid attention to Audrina. She brought with her a group of adventurers, alchemists, and apothecaries...... I can't say that these people will have a way.

Cheng Dalei sent people to invite these people to the general's mansion and explained his purpose to them.
