Chapter 792: Commemorative Coins

Li Ruofan was also a little crying and laughing when he saw the trial coins of the commemorative gold and silver coins of the "Thunderstorm" performance for the first time, because the front side was a profile portrait of Yuan Datou, and the reverse side was a flying dragon picture and a yuan and the commemorative words of the "Thunderstorm" performance.

The answer is actually quite simple, the mint is now all this mold.

Most people think that Yuan Datou is a silver coin, but a small number of commemorative gold coins have been issued. Li Ruofan didn't say it clearly when he asked people, but only said that there should be a commemoration of the performance of "Thunderstorm". As a result, this set of molds was used just in time.

In the end, Li Ruofan agreed, and after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, Yuan Shikai became the president in April 1912. In view of the fact that the coinage and paper money were very complicated at that time, there were more than 100 kinds of Chinese and foreign currencies in circulation, the specifications were different, the circulation was chaotic, the conversion was cumbersome, and the people were resentful, and at the same time, they also wanted to solve the problem of military spending with the help of currency reform, so they decided to mint and issue national currency.

In order to improve his dominance, Yuan Shikai cast his head on the surface of the coin, from which "Yuan Datou" came.

Because the Yuan Datou 1 Yuan Silver Dollar coin was regular in shape, novel in design, clear in weight and fineness, and easy to identify, the Yuan Datou Silver Dollar was quickly accepted by the common people and soon circulated throughout the country.

Due to the uniform shape of the Yuan Datou silver coin, strict regulations on fineness and weight, it was quickly recognized and accepted by the society, and gradually replaced the Qing Dynasty's Longyang in the domestic financial market and became the main currency in the circulation field.

Since Li Ruofan also wanted this set of 1,500 gold and silver coins to have the legal nature of circulating currency, it naturally could not be too unusual. Because now, although the warlords are divided, they are unified by Yuan Datou in terms of currency.

The day before the official performance, Li Ruofan took Fang Shuirou to Song Ping'an's house as a guest.

Handing over the red wine and fruit basket, Mei Ling glanced at Li Ruofan with a smile, and quietly compared the Shi brothers with Li Ruofan in her heart.

It's not that Shi Wenwu didn't propose marriage to his son, but it was Shi Shuyun at that time, because Shi Qingyun had already decided on a family matter. I just heard that the woman's health is not very good.

But Song Ping'an made an excuse to shirk it at that time and let her daughter decide for herself. Now it's the Republic of China, arranged marriages, parents' orders, and matchmakers' words are losing their market more and more.

In the eyes of those who care, this bet is more like a competition to recruit relatives, and whoever wins will be recognized by the Song family at the same time and become the fast son-in-law of Dongbed.

A loser is not qualified to marry the eldest lady of the Song family.

Mei Ling knew that Li Ruofan's first arrival in Beiping was a great help to Song Ping'an, and she did not dare to object to her husband's decision. However, what hesitating is that Fusang and Zhang Dashuai are now eyeing Beiping, while Shi Wenwu and Fusang have always been very close, although businessmen do not like to get involved in politics, but always have to face the situation like a marquee.

Later generations can talk about history books as an afterthought, but in fact, no one in this era can really see far.

Whether or not there is an emperor sitting on the dragon chair does not have much impact on the wealthy and powerful. Without the economic foundation to back it up, the great president will not be able to sit on the throne for long. So since Yuan Shikai's death, dozens of characters have appeared on the stage of the Beiyang government, and it is not as good as when Yuan was alive at that time, people can suppress those unruly warlords.

The rich are drunk by the warm breeze of tourists, and they make Hangzhou Bianzhou. There are also some old and young widows who are still white-headed palace maids, sitting idle and talking about Xuanzong.

Song Ping'an's family believes in Christ, and the dining table at home is also rectangular, the dishes are very rich, and there are not many people, just a family of three plus Lan Yuxuan and Li Ruofan Fang Shuirou.

Only Song Ping'an and Li Ruofan really drank red wine, and the others were champagne.

Li Ruofan owed to pour wine for Song Ping'an, and Song Ping'an smiled: "You have chosen a good follower!"

Fang Shuirou's dress is from 2016, and she has an indescribable avant-garde temperament, if it weren't for Xiao Nizi using spells to cover up her charm, it is estimated that few people would be able to stand it with a smile.

Li Ruofan smiled: "She loves to be different." ”

Hearing the maintenance in Li Ruofan's words, Song Yunting actually likes Fang Shuirou's dress, but as a female student, she doesn't dare to wear it differently. I didn't even dare to wear a cheongsam, and the kind of short ones that showed a lot were courtesans and red singers in the dance hall.

Mei Ling couldn't help but say: "Tomorrow's performance is no problem, right? I heard that the Chinese Grand Theater is performing the drama "Qu Yuan". ”

She is not worried about income, this time the third floor of Jinmanlou was lent to Li Ruofan for free for a month, although she saw that the tickets were selling hot, she still paid more attention to the final win or loss. The gambling game is only for a month, and Jinmanlou will not only operate for a month.

Li Ruofan smiled and took out a set of commemorative coins and stamp collector's edition sets and handed them to Mei Ling with a smile: "Auntie, this is for you." I hope you enjoy it. ”

The set is beautifully printed, with an introduction to the drama and cleverly embedded gold and silver coins and stamp sheetlets, souvenir sheets, booklet postage envelopes. Major events in later generations will also launch this kind of package, and Li Ruofan can be regarded as a follower.

Mei Ling smiled: "Li Ruofan has a heart. ”

Li Ruofan said with a smile: "Auntie, don't worry, I am still very confident in this drama, although the China Grand Theater is a strong collaboration between Guo Mo Ruotian Khan, but their drama is either a translation of the West, or a historical drama, but my "Thunderstorm" is completely innovative. I believe in the eyes of the audience. I've heard that tickets for the second floor are selling out very well, right?"

Song Ping'an smiled and said: "Take your light, it is a wonderful move for you to award the Peking Opera Lifetime Achievement Award to Chen Delin, and it was also presented before Mei Lanfang's performance of "Taizhen Gaiden" on the first day. Because next year, maybe it's who will come to watch the ceremony! And the trophy of the little golden man, you are willing to give it up!"

The little golden figure is the appearance of Norman Chan, vivid, and this is a large color photo to be published on the front page of the "Beiyang Pictorial". Mei Lanfang's performances had to give way to the second version. Moreover, Chen Delin has a very good reputation in the Peking Opera industry, and Li Ruofan also specially invited eight seniors from the Peking Opera Guild to add Chen Delin, who are basically the selection committee of the next Lifetime Achievement Award.

The fame of Peking Opera performers directly determines the dividends of the performance, that is, the appearance fee for later generations. It is generally accepted that two or three people take the lion's head, and the rest are divided according to the agreement. This is also the reason why Jin Manlou made all Peking Opera masters have to come this time.

Because there has been no real selection of the four famous Dans in history, the happiest people in this selection are the fans of the ticket. During the Republic of China, Du Yuesheng's 60th birthday held a church meeting, bringing together famous actors from the north and south, performing for a total of 10 days, with ticket prices ranging from 50,000 to 500,000, and the black market price was speculated to one million. At that time, the price of rice was more than 300,000 stones.

That's it, Ma Lianliang couldn't buy a ticket, so he had to beg the front desk manager of the theater to add a stool in the aisle and sit with others. Real ticket lovers are not bad for money.
