BXBX NOVEL Chapter 307: new currency
"Wang Yinlong, from today onwards, you will be in charge of preparing for the establishment of new anti-corruption and discipline inspection institutes directly under the supervisory offices of various states and counties, and will be responsible for investigating and apprehending officials who are corrupt, accepting bribes and bending the law for personal gain." Li Min said in a deep voice, although Li Min mentioned this before matter, but there is no emphasis on it. Now Li Yin regards this matter as a major event, because this kind of matter cannot be compromised. Once corruption has formed in the fief, it will be difficult to completely eliminate it.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Wang Yinlong said, the officials all looked at him at this moment, and their eyes couldn\'t help but a little more awe.
"Su More!" Li Yin called the name again.
"The minister is here!" Among the many officials, only Su Morer is a woman, but with the establishment of the Women\'s University, he believes that more and more women will enter the officialdom.
"You are responsible for assisting the Anti-Corruption and Discipline Inspection Institute." Li Yin said.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Su Morer responded.
Now the hearts of the officials became even tighter. Su Morer was the concubine of the King of Shu. Li Yin\'s actions undoubtedly put a sword on every official\'s head. "Yes!" The officials said in unison.
After this question, Li Yin listened to some government affairs in the fief and gave some suggestions on governance. The whole meeting lasted for more than an hour before it ended.
The meeting ended. The officials took their own actions and conveyed the content of the meeting to the states and counties. Some officials who received bribes tried their best to return the things, and some directly confessed to Li Yin, but Li Yinian\'s amount was very small. , They are first offenders and let them be spared once again. In the future, these matters will go directly to Wang Yinlong and he can do whatever he wants.
"Your Highness, this is the model you want."
The affairs of the officials are naturally handled by the officials themselves. He only needs to be the helmsman, and there is no need to worry about everything. But technology matters have to rely on him. Now that it is decided to establish a new currency system, the first thing to do is to determine the style of the currency. Therefore, Li Yin asked Li Ran to produce a set of currency according to his own design. If it is qualified, then the printing machine of this currency will also be Production follows, followed by the issuance of currency. For this banknote. Li Yin specially bought materials from Hyundai and asked Li Ran to bring smart people to make a banknote printing machine. For this reason, he even occupied a factory building in Taoyuan, and used electricity as the power of the banknote printing machine. This set of banknotes Once issued, it is impossible for anyone to copy it, because this set of banknotes is basically the same as modern banknotes.
"Not bad!" Picking up three yellow-orange-orange coins of different sizes, Li Yin said, "It\'s just that the copper content is so high, it\'s really a waste."
"This is something that can\'t be helped, because the industry in Yizhou can\'t reach the point of producing copper-nickel alloy." Li Ran said, he looked at the banknotes on the table and said: "Why does your highness use the portrait of the emperor as the banknotes?" One side!"...
Li Yin laughed and said: "You don\'t understand this. This is called drunkenness. The reason why I want to print the portrait of my father is to make our currency not only used in Yizhou, but also gradually The land also wants other places to use our currency. In this way, we will control Datang\'s economy invisibly. That\'s why I want to reflect my father\'s head on the banknotes. Don’t those ministers want to make irresponsible remarks again, who dares to say nothing about this kind of banknotes now.”
"So that\'s the case, your human psychology is really complicated." Li Ran said.
Putting down the coins, Li Yin picked up the banknotes and played with them again. The slippery and hard texture of the paper is very comfortable. For him, this set of currency is not only practical, but also very exquisite. He believes that once this currency is issued, it will definitely will be a big hit.
"Okay, let\'s start printing according to this set of currency. Temporarily print 50 million coins, and if it is not enough, we will continue to add more." Li Yin said.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Li Ran said.
"..."
Corresponding to the issuance of currency, the prosperous Tang banks in Yizhou began to change their appearance one after another. A plaque called Yizhou Bank replaced the original Shengtang bank. Many businessmen were caught off guard by this sudden change, thinking that something was wrong. During the period, I was very worried, because his money was stored in Shengtang Bank, and they would be unlucky if Shengtang Bank was over, but before they went to Yizhou Bank to inquire about specific matters, newspapers flooded the sky. To every corner of Yizhou, and they got the answer from the newspaper.
"From today on the two-year deadline, copper coins will cease to be used in the fiefdom of the King of Shu. Please go to the Yizhou Bank at the end of this month to exchange your old copper coins for the Yizhou currency issued at the end of this month. The value of the bank’s copper coins remains unchanged, and the money tickets are still valid.” A group of businessmen gathered together, and one of them read the contents of the newspaper.
"Go on, there\'s more to come!" A businessman said anxiously, now they can leave their wealth and lives in Yizhou, so they are extra concerned about everything in Yizhou.
"I have saved more money than you, why are you more anxious than me." The businessman who read the newspaper complained, and then turned his attention to the newspaper, "The currency issued will be directly measured by the value of gold and silver At that time, the exchange rate between Yizhou new currency and gold and silver will be announced every month, so please don’t panic, and you can use Yizhou new currency with confidence. The image introduction of the new currency is attached below."
The businessman was amazed after reading it, "The king of Shu is very clear. In my opinion, this money ticket is no different from banknotes, it\'s just more convenient. I\'ll take some out at the end of the month and have a look."
"I think it\'s better to wait and see for a while. If the people accept it, then we will use this set of coins in the future. If they don\'t accept it, then we will talk about it. Only by being careful can we make the Wannian Ship." A businessman said.
"Hmph, you can tell that you are not a local businessman. The reputation of His Royal Highness the King of Shu is well known in the world. When the bank was first established in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, how many people were willing to save money. Now? Don\'t they all deposit money in it? ?” one sarcastically said.
"Exactly, and this prosperous Tang Chamber of Commerce was originally privately owned by the king of Shu, but now it has become a government property. Isn\'t this reputation more guaranteed?" Another person echoed.
"..."
At the same time, similar conversations were going on in Yizhou. Those who could read and write took the newspapers home to spread the news. The farther state and county governments also sent people to carry out propaganda and let them If you know this, you will avoid troubles when you have time.
"Everyone, come here, and I will read you a new currency policy issued by the government today." Wei Tieniu had just returned from Yizhou City, and when he heard about the currency on the way, he hurriedly bought one and brought it back. If this was the case before, he would never have To buy a newspaper, because he can\'t read at all, but since the joke about the stele was made, he made up his mind to study. Originally, he planned to go to school because of the latter\'s shame, but he didn\'t expect the notice from the superior to say that the officials in Yizhou can He went to the training class of Yizhou Government Affairs University, and those who could not read could be taught for free, so he went there almost every day. After more than a year, he also learned a lot of characters.
"What\'s the news again, I\'ll give you what I can." A woman in a yellow dress and double-breasted short sleeves gave him a white look and said, she is Wei Tieniu\'s wife who just married this year.
Wei Tieniu puffed up his chest, and said: "What do you know, I am Lizheng in the village, and this new policy must not be publicized to the villagers, otherwise, how can I be worthy of His Royal Highness\'s monthly salary of 200 Wen?")
