Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the north of the city, by the river, there is a former village of Da people.

    Zhao Ran sat in a wheelchair, looking at the river, and then at the river banks on the east and west sides, thinking all the time.

    Beside him, Li Dayin was also sitting in a wheelchair, holding a thick planning plan in his hand and comparing it.

    It has been more than two months since the river bank demolition operation started in August. The demolition within three miles extending from the bridge base to the east and west has been basically completed. The Xiuxianqiu Charitable Foundation has spent 280,000 taels of silver for this, 90% of which was spent  After purchasing the land, the remaining 10% was used to resettle fishing villages such as Damin and pay hired workers to clean up dilapidated houses.

    As for the nail household?  This is absolutely impossible.

    This large-scale land acquisition operation made all parties involved really crazy. Officials, big and small, dignitaries, gentry, and wealthy businessmen all tasted the feast. In these two months, all procedures were given the green light and everyone was united.  All matters were completed one month in advance, and Zhao Ran was very satisfied with the high efficiency.

    I came to the river today to discuss the construction of the river bank. Zhao Ran plans to build a river bank landscape belt in an area two miles east and west and three hundred steps north and south. At the same time, he will build three-story villas with courtyards in it.  There are a hundred small buildings in total.

    Li Dayin was a little puzzled after reading it: "Aren't you going to build a bridge yet?"

    Zhao Ran replied: "While building the bridge, we will work on the landscaping, and try to sell these 100 villas while building the bridge. I'll offer two thousand silver for one building, and get back two hundred thousand taels. Isn't that expensive?"

    Li Dayin was a little surprised: "Two thousand silver? I'm afraid I can't sell it"

    Zhao Ran waved behind him, Suchuan Yao stepped forward and handed over a rendering of the riverside landscape villa. Li Dayin took it and glanced at it, and immediately couldn't take his eyes away: "This, this, this, I'm afraid  It¡¯s not a fairyland! No, no, Zhiran, leave one for me, you can¡¯t sell them all.¡±

    "Can you sell it for two thousand pieces of silver?"

    "Yes, it's so capable, tsk tsk tsk beautiful"

    After admiring the drawings for a while, Li Dayin asked: "Zhiran said that two hundred thousand taels of cash silver would be recycled. What does this recycling mean?"

    Zhao Ran said: "We just distributed more than 200,000 taels, what do you think these guys will do with the money they made?"

    Li Dayin thought for a while and said, "Go back to your hometown to buy land, and"

    Zhao Ran said: "Make it into a big cake and bury it in the ground!"

    Li Dayin smiled immediately, then nodded and admitted: "That's true."

    Zhao Ran sighed: "So, no matter how much money is given out, it will be buried in the ground. Lao Li, our Ming Dynasty is short of money!"

    Li Dayin didn't know what Zhao Ran was referring to, and when he was thinking about it, he saw Liang Yougao, the magistrate of Shangyuan County who was accompanying him behind him, biting his ears at Ling Congyun, a disciple of Sanmaoguan. Ling Congyun came up and said: "Teacher, Uncle Zhao, Hubu Bao  Wei Ming asked to see him when he was promoted to Chao Si."

    Zhao Ran said with a smile: "Invite him over."

    A fat man squeezed out from the crowd behind him. He was led over by Ling Congyun, and he bowed and saluted: "The lower official, the Treasurer and Banknote Division of the Ministry of Finance, is promoting Shi Weiming to pay homage to Abbot Zhao and the envoy of Li Yuan."

    Zhao Ran introduced to Li Dayin: "Shi Tiju is an old man from the household department. Although he is young, he is good at money and food."

    Li Dayin nodded and said to Shi Weiming: "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you."

    Suchuan Yao took out a wooden stool from the stored magic weapon. Shi Weiming sat down in fear and said: "Abbot Zhao is here to invite me. I am late, so I would like to ask Abbot Haihan. What the abbot said last time, I will  The official went back to check, and found that our Ming Dynasty silver courses are mainly concentrated in Huguang, Beizhili, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places. The larger ones include Dianzhong Silver Mine, Jizhou Bushui Silver Mine, Zhejiang Pingyang Qingtian Silver Mine, etc. Last year, the Ministry of Household Affairs Course  There are 38,000 taels of silver, and the silver class in central Yunnan ranks first, accounting for 19,000 taels"

    Li Dayin was in disbelief when he heard this: "Shi Tiji, wait a moment, the silver mine in Ming Dynasty last year was less than 40,000 taels?"

    Shi Weiming nodded: "Exactly, the situation last year was good. The year before last it was 33,000 taels, and the year before that was 30,000"

    Zhao Ran was also speechless and couldn't help but ask: "You haven't paid more than 50,000?"

    Shi Weiming said: "There have been times when there were hundreds of thousands, and the Xuanzong Dynasty once had 250,000 taels, but after hundreds of years, the mines are almost exhausted."

    Daming Silver Mine is allowed to be run by the government or privately. The Ministry of Households collects it at a ratio of 30%. This part is called the silver charge. Last year, the amount of silver charge was 38,000 taels, which means that the total silver production was just over 100,000 taels.

    With one hundred thousand taels a year, Ming Dynasty was definitely a country short of silver.

    At a time when silver has replaced copper on a large scale as currency in circulation, this can well explain why silver has always been on the market.Expensive things are cheap.

    After talking about the silver output of the Ming Dynasty, Shi Weiming asked cautiously: "Abbot Zhao, you placed your subordinate in the Baochao Department, don't you want to issue Baochao?"

    Zhao Ran smiled and asked, "What do you think?"

    Before Wei Ming could speak, Li Dayin had already spoken: "Zhiran, you can't do it. No one wants the treasured banknotes anymore. No matter how much money is issued, it's just waste paper. We can make money, but we can't do anything random."

    Shi Weiming said nothing, but kept nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, indicating his position.

    Zhao Ran said: "Bao Chao is actually a good thing, but unfortunately, its reputation has been ruined. When everyone heard that it was Bao Chao, everyone was terrified"

    Li Dayin continued to shake his head: "It won't work even if you change your name. As long as it's not gold, silver and copper coins, it won't work."

    Zhao Ran said: "Don't worry, I'm not trying to get treasure money, I just want to try to see if small-value banknotes can work."

    Shi Weiming was startled: "Small banknote?"

    Zhao Ran said: "The smallest denomination of today's banknotes is five taels of silver. These are issued by some banks in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. In fact, the effect is not very good. The ones that are really popular are the banknotes of big banks, but the amount is only fifty taels."  , one hundred taels or so. Such banknotes are meaningless to ordinary people and small businessmen and hawkers. Everyone still uses broken silver. My idea is to use the cultivation techniques of Maharaja Mountain to set up a small bank in the Baochao Department.  The banknote printing workshop specializes in printing banknotes of one cent, two cents, five cents, one tael, well, forget about two cents. There are too many types, and the cost will increase. "

    Li Dayin said angrily: "What's the difference between this and Baoqian? It's just changed from Wen and Guan to Qian and Liang."

    Zhao Ran said: "Of course there is a difference. Baochao Department does not issue compulsory issuance. Baochao Department sells small-denomination banknotes. Who do they sell to? To major banks. For example, Four Seasons Bank. When we print, we can use Four Seasons Bank's banknotes.  If the name is printed on the small-denomination bank note, it is called Four Seasons Bank's issuance. Since those merchants and officials who use Four Seasons Bank's bank notes can accept Four Seasons Bank's large-denomination bank notes, of course they can also accept Four Seasons Bank's small-denomination bank notes.  Right? In the same way, the same is true for other major banks. Whoever buys the small-denomination banknotes printed by Baochao Company, we will print the name of their bank on the banknotes. "
