Tang Jian is also curious and authentic.

Although he is the minister of household, the Royal Datang Bank is an independent institution, and Qin Huaidao is directly responsible to Li Er. Tang Jian is not completely clear about the data of the Royal Datang Bank.

On the contrary, it is the treasury managed by the Ministry of Accounts, and now all the money is deposited in the Royal Datang Bank, and transactions are carried out through the branches of the Royal Datang Bank.

"Yeah, tell us now!"

Fang Xuanling and others also had expressions of interest on their faces, and even Li Er's eyes were cast over

"Before speaking, please prepare yourself mentally. It's best to invite the imperial doctor's order first."

Qin Huaidao said with a smile on his face

To be honest, even Qin Huaidao himself was a little surprised by all the deposits in the Royal Tang Dynasty Bank.

Absolutely a scary number

"Don't worry, we have heard the number of one or two hundred million, and it will definitely not frighten us, let's say it!"

Du Ruhui hurriedly urged:

"Then I'll say it"

Qin Huaidao thought about it in his heart.

The deposit in the treasury is about [-] million qian: Li Er's internal treasury has about [-] million qian, and today's Li Er can be regarded as a local tyrant

As for Datang's private deposits, it has already exceeded 3 million [-] qian, and the Persian side has about [-] million qian:

In addition to the long-term import and export trade, the merchants from various countries have exchanged about 1 million yuan: deposits, although there will be certain fluctuations, but basically they are relatively accurate.

"About [-] million Guan: Come on!"

Qin Huaidao smiled and said

From the Taiji Hall, there was a whole sound of gasping for air.

Li Er and a group of important officials looked at each other with expressions of disbelief

[-] million! It was the income of the Tang treasury for [-] years before Qin Huaidao's reform!

Chapter [-]: Foreigners are learning Tang language

(Fourth more! Ask for full order!)

"[-] million guan, if this is converted into copper coins, it can be transferred from the Tang Dynasty to Persia."

Tang Jian, who has fainted many times, is much stronger this time, but after shaking for a while, he has recovered and sighed again and again.

"Tang Gong, Datang can't make up so many copper coins. The internal reserves of the bank are still mainly gold and silver."

"If you cast so many copper coins, you will lose your money to death."

Qin Huaidao couldn't help laughing.

Copper coins are only suitable for small transactions. Nowadays, merchants have become accustomed to using money tickets. After all, a thousand copper coins are quite a few kilograms. It is very inconvenient to carry, and there is a risk of rusting. , far less convenient than the same face value

For the imperial court, casting money is also a big pit.

During the Zhenguan period, the cost of casting consistent money was about seven hundred pennies, plus the craftsman's wages and transportation costs, which was basically a level of barely breaking even a small loss.

Moreover, in Datang, copper is an extremely important metal, which is more widely used than steel. The reason is that copper is softer in texture and has stronger ductility than steel, making it more suitable for the processing and foundry industry, which is still very weak.

"Also, if it weren't for the emergence of the Royal Tang Dynasty Bank, there would be a lot of copper left to cast money, and the artillery needed by the Ministry of War would not have been available at all."

Li Jing also has a thousand feelings

Artillery is really easy to use, but the cost of all-copper cast artillery is too high, and the steel cannon is easy to blow up when the technology is not good enough, resulting in the production of artillery has been unable to increase.

"It's okay, the circulation of copper coins has been greatly reduced now. It's really not good. To issue some gold coins and silver coins, we should also increase the number of bronze cannons."

Li Er pondered for a while and made up his mind.

"Actually, as long as more money tickets are promoted, even a lot of inferior copper coins can be recovered and re-cast. At least the number of artillery pieces must be increased first."

Qin Huaidao said with a smile: "The current scientific research institute has developed a new type of small cannon, the weight of which has been reduced to less than [-] kilograms, and the cost can also be reduced to [-] per gun if built in batches.

The range of the new cannon can still reach two miles, and the rate of fire is faster, but the power is slightly smaller.”

"This is a good thing, let's build two hundred doors first, and then set up ten 10 artillery battalions, but I can't stand being annoyed by the generals of the guards."

Li Er waved his hand and made up his mind

Anyway, now that the national treasury is rich, even if there are [-] matching cannonballs, and the training of the gunner will cost more than [-] million guns, it can still be saved by gritting the teeth.

The power of artillery is amazing. After seeing a hundred artillery salvos melting Liaodong City and Xuanmian City, Li Er and the others couldn't stop buying their hands.

Buy, buy, buy, don’t make guns with gold, why are you pretending! Qin Huaidao smiled, a mere [-] million passes, for Datang, it’s really not a big problem

A deposit of [-] million, just tossing around with financial means is an extremely terrifying figure.

For example, on the first day of the opening of the commercial city last time, nearly half of the trade volume of more than [-] million yuan was borrowed from Datang Royal Bank.

After foreign merchants arrive in Datang, if they are short of money, they can use goods or ships as collateral for loans. If they are in Persia or grasslands and other areas where there is a branch of the Royal Bank of Datang, they can directly use their own name at the location of the branch. Mortgage of fixed assets

The interest of these loans is much higher than that of Datang, and is calculated directly according to the daily or monthly interest.

The lowest level of interest, and the annualized interest rate should reach about 100%: a proper usury, the highest level of interest, can make the usury merchants of Datang cry when they see it.
