The Emperor of Red Mansions: Many Children, Many Blessings, Opening Draft

Time flies, years pass by...

After Li Chenghan returned to the palace, he directly arranged for the Ministry of Works to build a shipyard and port in the Kingdom of Xiangxiong.

After that, he issued an order that Dawu and other countries could completely open up trade.

At the same time, the East Factory was asked to open branches in various countries.

The current East Factory is not the East Factory that was short of staff before.

The current East Factory not only reserves a large number of talents of all kinds, but also accepts a large number of disabled and retired soldiers for training.

The purpose of the East Factory recruiting so many people is to prepare for stationing in various countries in advance.

Even the East Factory has prepared the staff for opening branches in the Xiongnu.

Of course, in addition to the East Factory Secret Shadow Dragon Guard, many Dragon Guards and spies were also recruited and trained.

During this period, Li Chenghan successfully made Su Qin and other women pregnant.

Wei Zhuang was made the swordsman of the princes and princesses, Ying Xue was made the archery teacher, Dian Qing was made the armor-piercing martial arts teacher, Duan Mu Rong and Sun Simiao were made the medical teacher, Pao Ding was made the cooking teacher, and Zhang Liang took over from Su Zhi to teach literature, chess, philosophy, etc.

Some of the talented ones, such as those with swordsmanship and natural powers, naturally needed special care and teaching from Wei Zhuang and Dian Qing.

However, whether it was swordsmanship, archery or hard skills, Li Chenghan's princes and princesses were actually very talented and made rapid progress.

Each of them was an all-round talent.

But their talents were obviously different from those with the ultimate swordsmanship talent and natural powers.

Although with the status of Li Chenghan's princes and princesses, they would never have to cook a meal in their lives, nor would they have to make a living through cooking and medicine.

Even Li Chenghan's children would never get sick in their lives.

But Li Chenghan felt that since he had these top resources, coupled with his children's talents, their intelligence was also here.

So let them learn, no matter whether they can use it in the future, at least they understand it.

This is just like what Heshen said, learning can be without skills, but it must be broad.

If they learn a lot, even if they are in an inconspicuous position, they will eventually have the opportunity to use it in this life.

Even if they only use it once in this life, it is enough.

That day, the court hall of Supreme Harmony

Li Chenghan kept dealing with various matters reported by the ministers.

Until the ministers finished their reports, Li Chenghan also dealt with all the matters reported by the ministers.

After a pause, he was ready to talk about his next deployment.

"From now on, Gongshu Chou will take the lead in making new coins for our Great Wu Empire.

The maximum denomination of Great Wu coins is 20 taels, and so on, it is 10 taels, 5 taels, 2 taels, 1 tael, 500 wen, 200 wen, 100 wen, 50 wen, 20 wen, 10 wen, 5 wen, 1 wen, 5 li.

Among them, 1 tael and above are all paper money.

From 500 wen to 50 wen are all silver mixed with other metals.Forging and synthesis.

According to the size of the quota, the silver injection ratio and the size of the silver coin are specified.

50 wen or less, 20 wen to 1 wen are cast with copper, and 5 li are cast with iron.

For the new currency of our Great Wu Empire, whether it is paper money or silver coins, copper coins or even iron coins, they must have extremely high anti-counterfeiting technology and high identification.

The Great Wu new currency I want is to let the whole world know the power of our Great Wu currency and it cannot be imitated."

"In addition, there is one more thing!

From now on, our Great Wu will establish the Great Wu Imperial Bank and the Great Wu Royal Bank.

All the new currency of Great Wu must be clearly marked with the six big characters "Great Wu Imperial Bank" to show the credibility of our new currency of Great Wu.

Even if the new currency is small, these six big characters must be printed on it.

In addition, after the establishment of the Great Wu Imperial Bank and the Great Wu Royal Bank, new currency will be issued.

The new currency can be exchanged equally with gold, silver, old currency, and official notes.

In order to ensure that one tael of silver can always be exchanged for one thousand coins in the future, it is necessary to prevent the situation where one tael of silver can be exchanged for hundreds of coins to one thousand coins in the future, or twenty taels of official notes can be exchanged for one tael of cash silver, and the silver notes issued by the bank are directly invalidated.

In the future, taxes will be levied directly in the form of new currency, and after five years, the use of cash silver to pay taxes will be stopped.

When paying taxes with new currency, no matter what happens in the future, one thousand coins can always be used as one tael of silver to pay taxes, and twenty taels is twenty taels, and you must not be short of a penny. "

"Also, after five years, the Great Wu Imperial Bank and the Great Wu Royal Bank will no longer exchange any silver, and can only exchange new currency for gold.

Silver can only be used as a commodity and bought and sold with new currency.

In addition, in the future, all countries coming to our Great Wu for trade, or our Great Wu going to other countries for trade, must use our Great Wu new currency to settle accounts.

In addition to gold, all silver that countries pay tribute to Great Wu must be exchanged for our Great Wu new currency.

Some non-top treasures can also be exchanged for new currency of equal value for tribute. ”

“Also, all salaries, rice, cloth, firewood, retirement money, etc. of royal relatives, nobles, and officials will be converted into new currency for distribution.

In addition, military pay, procurement, and money for court projects will also be distributed in new currency.

In short, the court will use new currency for all settlements that can be settled in new currency! ”

Li Chenghan told the whole court about his idea of ​​reforming currency and establishing a bank.

In fact, money transactions have always been the same in Dawu.

Not to mention how inconvenient it is to use cash for large-scale transactions, Dawu has silver bills issued by the court, that is, official bills, and private money houses also have silver bills issued by private money houses, but the anti-counterfeiting technology of both official bills and private silver bills is too low.

In addition, when the previous emperor of Dawu was in power, the credibility of official bills was so low that twenty taels of official bills could only be exchanged for one tael of silver. Private money houses are more direct,There are people who run away with cash and turn silver notes into waste paper.

That's right (Wang is good). Now the people of Dawu use silver notes, and there are many official notes.

But they are not very reliable.

In addition, according to the changes in the situation, the depreciation of copper coins is out of line with silver. The depreciation of silver makes copper coins less valuable than the soil on the ground.

So Li Chenghan is going to formulate a unified currency and give this currency the final credibility to facilitate the circulation of the people.

At the same time, Li Chenghan also wants to establish a bank, a money-making beast, to make endless money for the Dawu Empire and the royal family.

In addition, he wants to establish Dawu's monetary hegemony over various countries. (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

While making countries more dependent on the economy, Dawu can also control the economic lifeline of various countries and make them the blood supply bags of Dawu.

"Your Majesty, as you said, the unified currency is indeed a great thing that benefits the country and the people.

It can also be convenient for the country and the people."

"But why is the large-denomination currency set at 20 taels, rather than 100 taels, 1,000 taels, or even 10,000 taels?".
