Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 79 That’s what we think

establish trust!

These four short words made Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly fall into silence!
  He stared at Su Xian, his eyes gradually became dull...

What happened in the past few days.

began to appear in my mind.

the first time!
  He asked King Qin to take Bai Yin and break into the play of these children...

Originally, I wanted to see how paper money could be promoted among those people who only trade silver!

The final result was that King Qin left in a fit of rage.

He hasn't understood it yet...

Su Xian said that he wanted to go to the capital, to all the provinces of the Ming Dynasty, and even to go beyond the borders of the Ming Dynasty.

In his opinion, it was of course the ignorant words of a child.

Then came the promotion banquet...

Su Xian said the second wishful lie!
  Use your own silver to exchange for other people's treasures!
  When he said this, everyone thought he was lying to a fool...

What happened next was what happened to Su Guiyuan. His father was so bold that he went to get the banknotes from the bank and exchange them for banknotes.

After that, it’s the third statement today!

His father did all this.

Not a bad thing? Still a good thing!
  establish trust!

call!
  He exhaled slowly, as if to expel all the turbid air in his chest.

Because what hit him the hardest was his grandson Zhu Xiongying's words.

What I am doing today is actually the same arrogant and unreasonable way that my grandson did in the past to make the second son angry?
  The grandson collected the silver and regarded it as his own!
  He collected the silver himself, even banned private transactions, and never opened the bank's bank account! It is also regarded as one’s own thing!

trust?

Is it possible to build banknotes and the trust of the people by opening up bank accounts?
  Countless thoughts poured into his mind, and were slowly digested by Zhu Yuanzhang, so that now, he has been sluggish in front of everyone for a long time.

……

"Can trust be built by forcing the bank to use its treasury and redeem the silver?"

At this time, seeing his father not speaking for a long time, Zhu Biao couldn't help but ask, but he had the same doubts as his father.

In an instant, Zhu Yuanzhang also reacted and looked at Su Xian.

"Of course not!" Su Xian shook his head.

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone in the main hall looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. Zhu Yuanzhang almost breathed out, "Are you kidding me?"
  However, before he could say anything, Su Xian's voice continued to sound.

"The result of this is very likely that in a short period of time, all the silver in the banknote lifting department will be exchanged for these banknotes."

"After all, Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes are a new thing after all. In addition, in the past few years, you issued treasure banknotes on a large scale, and the means of issuance were problematic. It was through rewards for guardsmen and officials' salary. This This has led to Baochao’s embarrassing position in the market.”

"Of course!"

Su Xian changed his statement again, "If the Ming Dynasty has enough silver and continuously takes back the treasure notes in their hands, then the treasure notes will probably regain trust, but it is only possible."

"After all, the most important thing is how to issue the treasure banknotes."

Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly said:
  "But now, our Ming Dynasty doesn't have that much silver at all, and we even have a shortage of copper."

"Now, your father, open the bank. His reputation has been improved. The officials in the court want to punish your father for using talents to gain fame and having ulterior motives!"

"We should help suppress this."

"But if we continue, if the little money in the Bank's bank is really redeemed, and the trouble becomes bigger and bigger, then we will have to punish him!"

"As a Treasurer, I am unable to control the situation of the Treasurer. Instead, my kindness makes the situation worse and worse. This is what Baiguan calls "recruiting names with talents". Greater than!"

Su Xian said bluntly: "So now, we have to find another way."

now.

Zhu Yuanzhang also found a place to sit down.

It had to be said that his mind was very confused now and he couldn't care less about talking to Su Xian.

But at the same time, it’s very clear and I just want to hear it clearly as soon as possible!
  Because of the "building trust" that Su Xian said, the chaotic situation during this period was completely sorted out.

He had to let him finish.

"If we don't interrupt you now, Biao'er, please sit down too."

"Let Song Lian come, let Li Xiyan and Fang Xiaoru come, and write it down for us to see what he has to say."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, signaling to people outside to call him.

And he himself started thinking again.

Because he just found out now.

The big words Su Xian said before seemed not to be big words!

But a clue!

Soon.

Song Lian and others hurried over, and Fang Xiaoru even brought paper and pen.

When they hear...

Su Xian was asked to talk about what happened during this period of time, and he even had a feeling that he wanted to write a "joking experience".

But Su Xian had no time to talk to them.

At this time, all the chaos should gradually become clear, and the next step is to take action!
  "Actually, the reason is very simple. It's what I told them before..." Su Xian pointed at Zhu Xiongying and others.

"Silver exchanged for treasure banknotes!"

"But Bao Chao Lisi doesn't have that much money!" Fang Xiaoru interrupted at the right time and asked a question.

"Let him say it!" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little unhappy. Not only had he asked this question just now, why did you interrupt him?

"Let them participate!" Su Xian continued to point to Zhu Xiongying, then Chang Sheng, Chang Sen, Xu Yingxu, Fu Zhong, Mu Sheng and others..."

"Ok?"

Zhu Yuanzhang even laughed playfully when he heard this.

"No, didn't we all say it just now, my mother and the others didn't agree!"

Chang Sen spoke.

Several people nodded, this was not the plan.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang found it a bit funny, "Boy, you mean to spend other people's silver to exchange banknotes for us? This builds trust!"

"This method is good, we can't wait to do it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang first smiled, then spread his hands and said: "But we ourselves don't dare to have this sweet dream!"

"As a monarch, we have not yet reached the point of coveting the silver of our generals."

"The people who fought with us in the beginning all wanted a fortune that would last for generations to come. It's okay for us to exploit corrupt officials, but how can we exploit them?"

Su Xian looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

It’s hard to believe that he said this. If I hadn’t known about the four major Hongwu cases, I might have really believed you!
  In the case of Hu Weiyong, all the Huaixi nobles who followed Hu Weiyong were basically dead.

It continued for more than ten years and even the beginning of the Lan Jade case had its influence.

of course.

The reason for this does not include money.

But the future of Ming Dynasty and the power of the emperor!
  But it's undeniable.

Now the emperor, who seemed to be sitting in front of them and listening humbly, was not as kind as he appeared.

"Who said it was exploitation?" "How could it be exploitation? If it was exploitation, couldn't I imagine that they would disagree?"

Su Xian's first words made Zhu Yuanzhang more and more confused.

This time, before the other party could speak, Su Xian said directly:

"I said, make money!"

"Let them..." Su Xian pointed at Chang Sen, Xu Yingxu, Fu Zhong, and even the Ninth Prince Zhu Qi, the Tenth Prince Zhu Tan, the Eleventh Prince Zhu Chun and others.

"Let everyone make money!"

"It's just that it requires a small amount of investment in the early stage."

"That's just right. It's what I told them at the restaurant. Put some silver in first..."

At this moment, before Su Xian could finish speaking, Zhu Xiongying, who had been listening attentively, seemed to have thought of something and said quickly:

"Su Xian, you told me before that it was a money shop and treated silver as...as..."

I thought for a long time, but didn't say anything, so I had to say: "Let me carry it!"

"What are you carrying?" Zhu Yuanzhang obviously had not heard this part. He looked at Zhu Biao, and Zhu Biao also shook his head. After all, he did not go to the Wangxing Tower by himself.

"Have you finished talking to me about the second and third children?" Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to scold him in his heart. He asked King Jin and King Yan to go. Even though these two boys were busy in the palace all day, going out could be regarded as accompanying Xiongying to see the outside world. After all, he didn't have much time at all.

In comparison, Su Guiyuan's promotion banquet seemed to have gone to waste.

"I remembered it too."

Chang Sen interrupted at this time, but followed what he said before, "Su Xian told us to build a money shop, the same as a pawn shop, and treat silver as a commodity. If they want to buy it, we will sell it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him in surprise, "Products?"

"Yes! It's a commodity." Su Xian continued: "The Ming Dynasty directly defined silver as a commodity. The court's external caliber deprived it of its ability to be traded as currency! But it still has to guarantee the basic value it represents."

"And as the only one recognized by the Ming Dynasty government, only the Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes!"

"Thus,"

"Let's go back to the topic just now and build trust. Therefore, the Bank's bank must be opened at all times."

"Deposit, withdraw and exchange money as you please. This is the basis for the Ming Dynasty to establish the treasure bank transfer department."

"Not enough silver, not enough copper coins... these are not reasons."

"Because the Treasure Banknote Collection Department only issues treasure banknotes, it will only be responsible for... the exchange of used banknotes."

"We are not responsible for the exchange of silver or even copper coins."

"Silver and copper coins can only be traded!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's head was pounding when he heard these awkward words.

In its view, aren't exchanges and transactions the same? Why does this kid have to bother me so much?
  But on the other hand, his intuition told him that what he heard now...

It seems...it really works!
  "No, but now, your father has begun to exchange silver and even copper coins!" Zhu Yuanzhang thought of something and said quickly.

And this moment.

Su Xian smiled slyly, "It's up to people to say..."

"From now on, you take note of what I say."

The old god Su Xian was here and commanded the teachers who taught him these days.

Song Lian stroked his beard and smiled.

Fang Xiaoru, on the other hand, frowned. In his opinion, this move was not in line with etiquette for a little baby!
  But he didn't say much and just continued writing.

"Ahem..." Su Xian deliberately cleared his throat before continuing:

"The imperial court has established a treasure bank collection department and entrusted it with important tasks!"

"In the past two years, due to the establishment of new yamen, we have been careful to avoid harming the people... Therefore, the bank has not been opened for a long time."

"But I never imagined that it would lead to such a big twist. This shows that the exchange efficiency of treasure banknotes has been slow in the past two years."

"Therefore, the Treasure Banknote Promotion Department will unconditionally exchange copper coins, silver, and even new coins within three days!"

"But after that, the Ming government no longer recognized silver as a currency for private transactions!" He just finished saying this.

Su Xian thought of something and suddenly said: "There is no need to write this sentence. Anyway, His Majesty has banned gold and silver trading for a long time. In other words..."

After thinking about it, he simply stood up and acted like a teacher in class, but he also became naive.

"Private transactions are free exchanges, but gold and silver are not controlled by the government, so there are many counterfeit and counterfeit silver... His Majesty banned it for the sake of the people!"

"However, there are many resentments among the people, so from now on... the imperial court will no longer interfere with the gold and silver exchanges among the people. However, if there is fake gold and silver on the market and people lose money, they must notify the government immediately, and the government will deal with it strictly!"

"In addition, the Ming Dynasty Baobao and the Hongwu Tongbao are the only two coins recognized by the imperial court!"

"Gold and silver can be used as goods, and treasure banknotes can be freely bought and sold... Their value, like ordinary goods, can be freely determined by the people."

"But... Your Majesty thinks of the people."

"The Treasure Banknote Lifting Department is only responsible for banknotes, although they will no longer exchange gold and silver and other items."

"But...His Majesty was touched by the true and benevolent thoughts of the emperor's eldest son, Sun Tong. He will first open a money shop for him in the capital, allowing the people to freely buy and sell gold, silver, copper and other items with treasure coins!"

next to.

Fang Xiaoru and Li Xiyan, who had been listening, became more and more shocked as they listened, and their eyes became glazed over as they listened.

You boy!
  How can you still say this...?
  Why did His Majesty's large-scale printing of treasure money in the early period change its taste in your kid's mouth?
  And this moment...

Zhu Yuanzhang listened, his expression serious at first, and finally relaxed.

When the words "for the sake of the people" appeared, his smile almost reached his ears.

Although he still didn't understand some parts, he was already slapping his thighs excitedly!

"This is a good statement! This is a good statement!"

"We prohibit money transactions, just to promote treasure money."

"You said there are a lot of counterfeit treasures counterfeited by the people? But let's also say that there are more fake gold and silver! Okay! Instead of banning them, it's better to tell them to bear the consequences."

"On the contrary, we will once again strengthen the verification of treasure banknotes!"

"Yes! Haha! Wonderful!"

"If gold and silver are absolutely banned, the effect will not be good and it will cause counter-effects. But if we consider the people's side, we can maximize the success!"

"This is... leaving the choice to the people!"

"it is good!"

While he was happy, as Su Xian spoke more and more, he soon understood the intention, and he was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

On the other hand, it also gave rise to more questions.

For example, why should gold and silver be classified as general goods and why should independent pricing transactions be allowed?

For example, after the money shop is opened, how should it maintain profitability instead of being exchanged for gold and silver by others?

Another example...if their Ming treasure money is too single and has nothing to control, will there be trouble again?

There are more and more questions.

But it didn't stop him from understanding the meaning of Su Xian's words.

If you think about it for a moment, you will realize that many of these things are actually feasible!

He became more and more happy, and even couldn't help but clapped his hands and praised:
  "Well said, you said everything that was on our mind this time."

"To be honest..."

"We have always thought so before this!"

"It's just that my ability in marching and fighting has been used too much, and I subconsciously want to push! But this method is good! Shirou's method is always better than pushing! Haha... good!"
