Chapter 338: Chairman

After the fourth master's explanation, Li Wei roughly understood what was going on this time.

One or two pieces of silver can only be exchanged for eight or nine hundred coins from a thousand yuan, which shows that the price of silver has become cheaper.

He sighed: "Silver is cheap and copper is expensive, this is not a good omen." ”

It's like trading stocks. Seeing that Yongzheng money is good, more people will pounce on it to save copper coins.

What do you do with copper coins?

Li Wei asked, and the fourth master smiled: "It's not always about saving copper coins to play." ”

In fact, counterfeit money is a historical problem.

Compared with various modern high-tech anti-counterfeiting, ancient counterfeit money is relatively less jishu content, and there is an iron stove and then a mold.

Yongzheng Qian has also made various preparations in anti-counterfeiting. When the fourth master ordered the minting of coins at that time, he required that the coinage molds in various places be highly unified, so the words of Yongzheng money are good-looking (her perception).

But that didn't stop the counterfeit business from flourishing.

Let's put it this way, if you get a thousand genuine Yongzheng coins to a private casting workshop, you can turn them into 1,500 or 2,000 in a blink of an eye. Is this a windfall profit?

The fourth master said in a tone of envy, but even more disgust: "I have always dreamed that I would like to change the money in the treasury like this, and it can double in the blink of an eye." ”

Li Wei touched him, and didn't dare to say that the Li family had also used private money.

In fact, this matter is particularly common among the people, quietly go to the people who start a coinage business, spend 20,000 yuan to buy 200,000 counterfeit coins that can be circulated, to be honest, do you do it?

Yongzheng money is still difficult to cast, and Kangxi money is simple. Almost every city in the country has its own coinage bureau, and the molds used in various places are only the pursuit of similarity, not strict requirements for the same. So there's basically no difficulty in private minting – you just have to say it's money from out of town.

Isn't it just to use money? As long as it can be circulated, it is money.

The government is also very good at catching private casting, but under the heavy profit, the head chopping knife is not so terrifying. Besides, it's not that you can't really get by, and no one will take risks. The Li family secretly went to buy private coinage that time, Li Wenbi had a nightmare for half a month, and secretly grabbed Li Wei and said that she should take her younger brother to play outside, as long as you see officers and soldiers knocking on the door, don't go home and hurry up to find your uncle.

Li Wei didn't dare to tell him, in fact, the private casting den that the Jueercha clan went to was covered by his uncles, and all the fake money he took for the family was first-class fake money, the proportion was exactly the same as that of the official casting, and the mold was also on the top haode. So don't worry, you won't be able to recognize the official when you get it, Amma, you can rest assured of the flower.

In view of Li Wenbi's simplicity, the Jueercha clan did not change again after changing this time. This time he lost ten pounds, and he would be scared to death if he came again.

The money issued by the government can increase in the blink of an eye, but the value is constantly decreasing. Inflation means that money is becoming less and less valuable, and people will be more inclined to use bank to hedge their value.

She remembers that there were several gold rush in modern times, and she heard that the gold in Southeast Asia was bought up by Chinese aunts. The local TV station at her home also reported that a local tyrant spent 3 million in one go to buy gold bars in a gold store to give a year-end bonus (Tuhao, is your company still short of people?). )。

Originally, copper was expensive and silver was cheap, so a considerable number of smart people began to absorb silver while it was low. Although when silver is absorbed to a certain extent, there is less silver on the market, and silver is more expensive than copper coins again, it does not mean that copper coins are fine.

The more the money is put into circulation in the market, the less the official money will have to be issued, and the money recovered will not be even, and the loss will be inevitable.

This is also equivalent to the state losing money all the time.

Of course, it is impossible for the fourth master to wait until the matter becomes so serious to clean up, in fact, the Beijing Baoyuan Bureau, the Baoquan Bureau and other bureaus in the Beijing Mint Bureau are equivalent to the head offices of state-owned banks. As the head office of the capital, the penetration rate of the capital is the fastest and largest when the new Yongzheng currency is issued.

When they found that the private castings on the market had sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and silver was cheap and copper was expensive, they naturally reported it immediately.

It's just that the fourth master ascended the throne first, and during the New Year, there are too many happy events. No one wants to be a mourning bird.

Everyone knows that if you hand this thing over, you will definitely be scolded. The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household are the top sheep.

The eighth master was sent to the door at this time. He already had a good reputation, and he was willing to 'help each other', so the household department and the ministry of work were very happy, and hurriedly handed over the matter to him.

The eighth master kept pressing it until the silver and copper in the capital dropped to eight hundred, and he estimated that he would almost hand it over.

If the matter is not serious, it will not show his ability.

The fourth master naturally exploded his lungs.

In fact, after listening to it, Li Wei also felt that the eighth master really didn't shed tears when he saw the coffin. How can there be such a thing? First, he watched people being beaten on the side, and when the others finished beating, he came up and took his mobile phone and asked me, will I call you an ambulance?

The beaten person must have wanted to scold him while saying xiexie: Why didn't you call 110 earlier?

She said this angrily, 110 took the yacha instead, and the fourth master was very happy to hear her scolding.

Li Wei said: "If he thinks it's troublesome to go to the yamen, he can turn a blind eye." As long as he doesn't keep standing on the sidelines, as if he's just waiting to pick up the leak, then ...... That's not so hateful! ”

There are more than one or two well-informed people in Kyosato. The fourth master is really deaf and blind in the palace, and there must be people in the capital who find out that Yongzheng Qian has an accident, but compared to those who pretend to be stupid, the eighth master is not necessarily much better than being smart.

The fourth master came over to persuade her at this time, pulled her to sit down and stroked her back: "Okay, I'm already angry, don't be angry." ”

He sighed, "Thirteen is really my humerus." ”

After he heard what Lao Ba said, it was really like a stick on the head, a thunderbolt on a sunny day. But after Thirteen came back, he smiled and told him that there was probably a lot of money in the capital, and there was still a lot of money in Kangxi outside. At least what he saw in Jiangnan was still eighty percent of the Kangxi money, and only twenty percent of the Yongzheng money.

If this had been said two months earlier, the fourth master would have been unhappy.

But now tell him that the popularity rate of Yongzheng money is not high, only the capital is a little more serious, and the bad situation in other places has not yet fully unfolded.

There is enough time to remedy.

A big stone in the fourth master's heart just fell to the ground.

Li Wei only understood when she heard this, and couldn't help but step forward and gently stroke his chest. caused the fourth master to bow his head and smile, and shook hands with her.

She said in her heart: No wonder, the fourth master was scared by such a big fire before.

It's like just after the exam, the results haven't come out yet, and the results of a certain major subject are a little weak. At this time, a news quietly circulated in the school: the pass rate of this subject was only sixty percent, and the judgment was extremely strict, and the professor was angry. No matter how you count yourself, you don't look like the lucky ones in the sixty percent. What's more, if you are absent too much, you will point to the results of the paper to pull points.

Then I couldn't live in a panic, I didn't get on the Internet, my boyfriend was in no mood to take care of it, and I didn't want to go shopping on the street, so I didn't want to go shopping~

Zuihou found out that it was a rumor.

The fourth master is now discovering that the results can still pass safely - if you can't pass the test, you can make up the exam. It's still too late to start reading. So, he relaxed.

After that, until the autumn, the fourth master brought a box of newly minted money to her from time to time to play.

The Beijing Baoyuan Bureau is re-minting money according to his request, and this time it must be foolproof.

If the Yongzheng money last time was a thing for Li Wei, now when she sees the Yongzheng money that has not yet been issued, her perception is different.

Much more cautious.

The fourth master also gave her a demonstration and taught her to throw copper coins on the ground to listen to the sound.

Li Wei's eyes are about to pop out! He couldn't help but pounce on the money to save it, he smiled when he saw her like this, and told her that the money would have to be used by throwing it.

not only let her fall, but also gave Hongyu a fall, and even Su Peisheng was rewarded for falling a few pieces.

After falling a few times, there were really copper coins that were broken.

At that time, when the money was slammed to the ground and became eight petals, there was silence in the entire east five rooms. Although Li Wei is not the main wrestler, she also looks at the fourth master and doesn't know what to say.

…… It was he who fell.

Do you want to comfort him? How to comfort? She really hadn't used a copper plate that broke when she fell, which was even worse than a private cast.

The fourth master was very calm, Su Peisheng made his eyes look and asked a little eunuch to kneel down and pick up the broken copper coin, and the little eunuch was about to cry in fright. Li Wei smiled and said: "Broken peace." ”

The fourth master laughed, and the little eunuch also breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly picked it up and retreated.

"Why is this money so brittle?" Li Wei picked one up and said.

The fourth master sighed: "If there is less copper, the money will be brittle." Not in use. ”

Li Wei thought about it and found that she couldn't help it. She memorized the periodic table, but she didn't know where the metals like tin and aluminum were mineralized, and she didn't know how to refine them.

There are only a limited number of metals that can be found in ancient times, and there is no place for modern experience to draw on – paper money is too far ahead of its time.

The fourth master saw that she was worried and asked her what she was worried about, so she said that she wanted to help him come up with an idea.

"What idea do you want to help me come up with?" He laughed.

In the evening, the two of them had nothing to do and lay on the couch to chat, and the fourth master spent a day of brains, and he liked to listen to Su Su say some of her careful thoughts. When he heard that she was thinking about how to mint Yongzheng money for him, he laughed when he listened to it.

Su Su said that she had thought about using itβ€”but iron was also an important strategic reserve, so she dismissed the idea.

She also said that there is no question of the price of paper, and the proliferation of private casting bureaus in various places is because there are people who strike iron, but printing bureaus are not available everywhere. There may not be a bookstore in the town, but there must be one for iron.

The fourth master laughed at her whimsically: "The common people love to save money, copper coins can be stored for a lifetime in a clay pot, and paper is used to make money, can the money still be placed?" ”

Li Wei said in her heart that this emperor's brain is not ordinary, and he thought of it so quickly. In the modern news, there is often news that money is hidden in the corner of the pigsty, either for the pigs to eat or for the rats to gnaw.

However, after laughing, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that in addition to being difficult to store, paper money eliminated most of the problems.

I couldn't help but get up and go to the next room to write a design plan.

Li Wei slept until three o'clock in the morning, and when she got up, she was ready to get up and drink some water, and then she saw the lights on in the next room. She put on her clothes and saw that the fourth master seemed to have stayed up all night and worked all night.

Seeing her coming, the fourth master suddenly said: "Woke you up?" Then he subconsciously looked at his watch and was shocked: "Why is it this hour." ”

Li Wei was surprised: "You didn't sleep last night?!" ”

Probably because of her tone, the fourth master immediately explained: "I wanted to go to sleep as soon as I wrote it, but I didn't pay attention until now." He put down his pen and said, "Really, really......"

When she pushed him into the back room and asked him to change his clothes and wash up, he still explained vigorously: "I really forgot about it for a while." ”

Li Wei handed him the clothes and said with a smile: "What are you busy with?" ”

The fourth master sighed, saying that he had been thinking about the paper money she said all night. made Li Wei directly startled, can she really give the banknotes out to the butterflies?

But obviously not possible.

The fourth master just opened his brain hole for one night.

Until he sat down for breakfast, he said that he had imagined that if the banknotes were not afraid of flooding, they could use cloth and silk, and the lines on them could be woven by the embroiderer.

But most of the women are raised in the boudoir, and it is impossible to recruit a large number of embroiderers.

After all, making money is not quite the same as the cloth used for dressing, and this workload is only a lot more. Even if it was the emperor's order to exchange the annual knitted tribute to the royal family for money, the embroidery girl and the weaver girl were still not enough.

Li Wei ate sticky bean buns, coerced one for him, and interjected: "You can let men weave too." ”

"Ridiculous." The fourth master scolded lightly with a tiger face, and sighed funny: "Whimsical." In ancient times, men ploughed and women weaved, how could there be a reason for men to weave? ”

Li Wei said: "Women can plow the fields, but men can't weave cloth?" ”

The fourth master is stuck, and the countryside is indeed the whole family going to the ground, and it is impossible to save the woman from calling. He saw that Su Su was still winking at him, and urged him to answer, so he had to dig out the salted duck egg yolk from his plate and put it in her bowl, and said, "I can't talk about you, my mouth is full of crooked reasoning, eat it." ”

Li Wei, who was occupied, had no choice but to take his flag.

Seeing that she ate the salted duck egg yolk in one bite, the fourth master was afraid that she would be salty again, so she hurriedly drank two more mouthfuls of porridge slowly.

Then he went on to describe his brain hole, that is, if the problem of Weaver Niang is solved, it is not enough not to be afraid of flooding, but also not to be afraid of fire, and to be durable enough.

When the fourth master was hesitating about how to solve the problem of fire (this could not be solved), she found that she had not slept all night.

After breakfast, the fourth master should go to the front hall, and Li Wei went in with him to wait for him to change clothes.

She was a little embarrassed and said, "I just said it casually at the time." "The fourth master really spent a night thinking about the feasibility.

She felt that she would not dare to speak up in the future. As time passed, the fourth master became more and more able to listen to her words. She's the kind of person who can directly influence the chairman (will she be invited to tea)!

How terrible!

She knows exactly how much she can do.

The fourth master touched her head, then took her into his arms again, patted her lightly and said, "I know that Su Su cares about me, and Su Su also thinks about it seriously." ”

That's why he's willing to listen carefully. Su Su really thought about it, even if she was just a boudoir girl, her words were more precious than many people in the court.

The author has something to say: Three watches, will the title be invited to tea?
