The Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang was born, and my immortal identity was exposed

Chapter 22 The Emperor's Art! (Please collect, please recommend!!!)

As soon as Ying Zheng spoke, he caught the curiosity of all the officials.

The few national policies that His Majesty said last time have already made them admire this immortal master.

I don't know what kind of advice the immortal master has this time?
"Can you remember, Zhu Qing, among the fetishes bestowed by the immortal master last time, there was an object called paper?"

"This paper is as thin as silk, but it can be made with only bark and other materials."

"The immortal master told me that this thing can be used to print and issue banknotes instead of the current gold and copper coins."

"What do you think?"

As soon as the words fell, Li Si, the left minister, came out and said:

"I think it's feasible, but I don't know, what's the meaning behind it?"

In Li Si's view, replacing the existing coins with banknotes is no different from Daqin's replacement of the old coins of the Six Kingdoms with new half taels, nothing more than a different material.

But he knew that since the move was proposed by the immortal master, it must have a different meaning.

Since Li Xiang was the first to stand up, the rest of the officials also echoed, this is also the doubt in their hearts.

On the throne, Ying Zheng looked at the reactions of the ministers below, and nodded with satisfaction:
"One of these is that paper money is easy to circulate, and it can also reduce the loss of copper coins and gold."

"The immortal master thought that this move would greatly stimulate trade."

Li Si frowned: "But Your Majesty, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and the wind of trade is prevalent, which may not benefit the Great Qin."

"Hahaha!" Ying Zheng laughed, "I have also asked the immortal master the same question."

"The immortal master told me that it's because my people don't have enough to eat. If too many people devote themselves to business, who will farm the fields? Then the world will be in chaos."

"But now, I have such fairy food as potatoes and Quyuanli, do you think my people still worry about not having enough to eat?"

The policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business was put forward by Shang Yang when he reformed, and it has been implemented by Daqin for so many years.

The concept of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce has penetrated into the hearts of every minister, and Ying Zheng's few words are not enough to convince them.

"Your Majesty can't, I think the way of merchants should not be open."

"The same is true for the minister!"

Several ministers came out one after another, trying to stop Ying Zheng.

"Misters." Ying Zheng waved his hands, "I know what you are worried about."

"I'll tell you about another wonderful use of this banknote."

The hall suddenly fell silent, and all the officials stared at Ying Zheng, hoping to get a reasonable explanation from him.

"Whether it is gold or copper coins, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to cast, and the materials are scarce."

"It can be exchanged for this banknote. As long as you master the papermaking technology, don't you want to print as much as you want?"

"Are you still worried about the emptiness of the treasury?"

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, many officials became excited:
"Since this is the case, won't we not have to worry about running out of money in the treasury in the future?"

"Copper coins are minted in limited quantities, but this banknote has no risk of shortage of materials. It's wonderful!"

Of course, there are also some sober ministers who are not in a hurry to be happy.

"Your Majesty!" Right Prime Minister Feng Quji also stood up and bowed, "However, with such behavior, wouldn't the common people suffer?"

Li Si also thought so: "To print and issue too many coins will inevitably lead to skyrocketing prices and make the coins in the hands of the people no longer valuable. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

The words of these two people, like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's head, chewed carefully, only then did they hear the loopholes in His Majesty's words.

Ying Zheng secretly felt that these two were really ministers of the humerus of the empire, and they were able to react so quickly.

"What you can think of, the immortal master has already thought of it."

"Issuing banknotes and promoting trade are not my ultimate goals."

As soon as Ying Zheng waved his hand, an eunuch brought up the globe that Jiang Sheng had given him earlier.

"Remember, I told you last time that there are other empires besides Great Qin."

All the officials watched Ying Zheng playing with the globe in his hand, and responded in unison.

"After I conquer the Xiongnu with iron hoofs, I must organize an army, open up trade routes, and do business with all countries in the world."

"As long as we use force to deter and force the countries to use our banknotes."

"In time, according to the words of the immortal master, my banknotes will become the world's currency!"

Ying Zheng put down the globe and asked slowly:
"If I print and distribute too many banknotes, where should the excess banknotes go?"

Feng Quji muttered to himself:
"As long as paper money is used in all countries in the country, the paper money will flow to other countries continuously, and the whole world will take risks for the people of Daqin!"

"Not only that, Daqin can also send caravans to use these banknotes to buy goods from other countries to ensure the people's livelihood of Daqin."

"If any country dares to resist..."

"Then we'll meet each other with swords and swords!" Li Si narrowed his eyes slightly, and coldly picked up what Feng Quji had left to say.

"That's right!" Ying Zheng clapped his hands and laughed, "That's right!"

After considering the powerful relationship among them, many ministers couldn't help but gasp.

"The wisdom of the immortal master is beyond my reach!"

"The art of the emperor, this is the best art of the emperor!"

"If things go on like this, won't all the countries in the world be subject to my Great Qin?"

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all convinced by Jiang Sheng's strategy.

Seeing that the effect he wanted had been achieved, Ying Zheng ordered Li Si to prepare for it.

As long as Meng Yi makes the right paper, he can start to reform the currency.

In this time and space, the historical direction of Daqin seems to have deviated a lot.

If Jiang Sheng knew all this, he would probably be dumbfounded.

A good feudal society has moved towards capitalism in advance.

……

In another time and space, Jiang Sheng put the seal made of "Heshibi" back into the brocade box.

"Although the workmanship of this box is a bit rough, it's still good to match with this jade seal."

Just as Jiang Sheng was muttering, he heard a prompt sound in his ear:

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for getting the reward, intelligence increased by 20.00%!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for getting the reward, a basic industry manual!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for getting the reward, a picture of the primary spirit gathering array, which can improve the surrounding environment after use, range: a radius of [-] meters!"

Ah, I wonder why I didn't do anything?
The reward came so abruptly, and there was almost no logic in the two rewards, so Jiang Sheng didn't think about how to get the reward.

But the reward this time is not bad.

Jiang Sheng lay down on the sofa, worked his brain a little bit, and felt that he was thinking about problems more smoothly than before.

I searched for some math problems on my mobile phone, and after a glance, I got the idea of ​​​​solving the problem.

Hey, the feet are off the ground, and the smart IQ has taken the high ground again.

With another thought, an array of unknown material and painted with unknown symbols appeared in Jiang Sheng's hands.

After silently saying the word "use", the array disappeared out of thin air.

Yo, this thing works so well, I thought I had to put myself in battle.

With Jiang Sheng as the center, with a radius of [-] meters around, gusts of wind blew inexplicably towards the center.

When the wind calmed down, Jiang Sheng only felt that the air seemed to be much fresher, which made people feel refreshed.

Getting up and walking into the small courtyard, he saw that the flowers were more colorful and the grass was greener.

And in the nearby fields that he couldn't see, the seeds of the crops that had been sown before broke through the ground one after another, and the seedlings stretched wantonly.

The creatures within a hundred meters radius are nourished by unknown energy.

Jiang Sheng was in a good mood. Although this spiritual energy was not as high as in the novel, it was obviously beneficial to animals and plants.

"Meow!"

Daju, who was originally lying under the wall to recharge his batteries, is now alive and well, regaining his glory.

After a few clicks, he jumped out of the courtyard wall and went straight to the village.

"You fat cat, you will die on the belly of the female cat sooner or later!" Jiang Sheng cursed bitterly.

That night, I do not know how many villagers were awakened by the shrill cat meowing outside the window.

"My family has a male cat, where did this beast come from!"
