Chapter 541: The Vision of the World

For three consecutive days, Datang Daily reported the news related to the "Gewu Academy" on the front page.

Needless to say, the huge reward directly made a bunch of hesitant people join the ranks of going to sea.

The discovery of Australia has also refreshed everyone's understanding of the world.

And there are gold mines in Australia, which has strengthened the idea of many people to go to Australia.

On the contrary, the silver ticket launched by the Tang Royal Money Village did not bring so much repercussions.

After all, the minimum face value is also a silver ticket of 100 yuan, which really has nothing to do with ordinary people.

This is just like the cheques of later generations, no matter what changes in the relevant management policies, ordinary people basically do not pay attention.

Because, those who can use checks are not ordinary people at all.

However, the merchants of the eastern and western cities paid more attention to this matter than all else.

Chen Jin is a well-known merchant in the West Market.

Although the main business is silk, there are some other businesses and shops in Dengzhou and Liangzhou.

As a businessman who has had a cooperative relationship with the subordinate workshops of the Chu Wangfu for a long time, Chen Jin is also very concerned about the movements of the Chu Wangfu.

When each of the crew members of the Gewu Academy received a silver ticket as a reward, he immediately exchanged a pile of gold coins for two thousand silver tickets from several crew members.

There are 100 guan, 500 guan, and 1,000 guan.

"This guest officer, this is ten gold coins, you have taken it!"

In front of the counter of the Tang Royal Bank, Chen Jin took a 100-yuan silver ticket to the counter to exchange for gold coins.

"Thank you!"

Chen Jin put away the gold coins, settled down a little, and then got on the left carriage and continued to the treasure pavilion.

He was about to go to Suzhou to buy goods, and he needed to carry more than 20,000 yuan of money.

In previous years, in order to ensure the safety of the road, he would bring the guards of the palace and hire a few trusted rangers to follow him south.

However, the appearance of the silver ticket gave Chen Jin a new idea.

With these silver tickets, it is easy to carry as much money as you want.

As long as you find a secret place to hide, the possibility of accidents is greatly reduced.

The silver ticket was issued by the Tang Imperial Bank, and as long as it could be exchanged for coins normally at the semicolons in various places, Chen Jin would use it.

It would be better if you didn't have to go to the money bank to exchange it, and you could use it directly.

Now, exchanging the silver ticket for silver coins, he has successfully tried.

Let's take a look at the West Market again.

The treasure pavilion is the property of the Chu Palace, and he is going to go here to have a look at it first.

If even the Treasure Pavilion doesn't accept silver tickets, then you don't need to try other places.

If the Treasure Pavilion can accept it, find another shop that has nothing to do with the Chu Wangfu and try it to see if it can be done.

Chen Jin didn't expect all shops to accept silver tickets, after all, for some small shops, the value of silver tickets is too high, and if they receive a fake one, it will be fatal.

But for the larger shops, they should be well aware of the significance of the silver ticket to themselves, and the possibility of the silver ticket being able to circulate there is also a high level.

……

East Palace.

Li Chengqian, Li Yuanchang, Changsun Jiaqing and others got together.

"Is this silver ticket really impossible to imitate?"

Li Yuanchang flipped the silver ticket of 100 yuan in his hand back and forth, and his face was cloudy.

As soon as the silver ticket of the Tang Royal Money House was launched, Li Yuanchang thought of a clever trick to get money.

However, considering that his strength is not enough, he is ready to cooperate with Li Chengqian.

Now that the prince needs more and more funds to compete for it, Li Chengqian naturally agreed to Li Yuanchang's proposal without any hesitation.

However, after the eldest grandson Jiaqing went to several printing workshops that were closely related to the East Palace, the news he brought back was very disappointing.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han, I have checked with the shopkeepers of the printing workshop and the paper workshop on the paper printed on this silver ticket, and they haven't even looked at it, so they can't guess how it was made, let alone imitate."

The eldest grandson Jiaqing was also disappointed.

I originally thought that a splash of wealth was coming, but I didn't expect it to be an empty joy.

Of course, if he knew that the paper printed on these silver tickets was specially exchanged by Li Kuan from the system, it was estimated that he would not be so self-conscious.

For Li Kuan, the smallest silver ticket is also worth 100 yuan, and judging from the circulation demand of Datang in recent years, as long as it is exchanged for a ton of special paper, it is enough to use.

In order to make the progress of the silver ticket not have any baskets, it is worth wasting some points.

"Although the paper of this silver ticket is very beautiful, and the printed picture is very clear, since the Chu Wangfu can make it, it means that there are still people who know about it. The East Palace has raised so many people, can't you even inquire about the slightest news? ”

Li Chengqian also stared at the eldest grandson Jiaqing with an unhappy face.

In his opinion, no matter how complicated the silver ticket is, it is also made by people.

The eldest grandson Jiaqing has brought back such a little news now, which is completely betraying his trust.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the King of Han, although this silver ticket looks like a simple piece of paper, but the "Datang Daily" has introduced its twelve anti-counterfeiting measures in detail. Even if you soak this paper in water for a while, it will not rot immediately, and this alone cannot be done by all the papers on the market now.

Also, the image of the Daming Palace behind this silver ticket is printed vividly, just like the real thing, and this printing technology is not something that ordinary printing workshops can complete. What is even more difficult to imitate is that this silver ticket has a color, this bright color, printed on the silver ticket and touched it with your hands, will not fade at all, and you will not feel the traces of paint on it, which is also very difficult to do......"

The eldest grandson Jiaqing has also put in a lot of effort in the past two days.

Especially when he heard the shopkeeper of the printing workshop and the paper workshop say categorically that there was no way to make such a silver ticket, even if it was rough, he had a good understanding of the reason.

After all, he has followed Li Chengqian for so many years, and he knows very well the temper and character of his prince.

If you can't say one, two, or three by then, then people may really think that they are not doing their jobs well.

"What's the use of talking too much? Why was the Datang Royal Money House able to produce such a silver ticket? ”

Li Chengqian's words made the eldest grandson Jiaqing speechless.

In fact, Li Chengqian is definitely not the only one who wants to play a silver ticket with crooked ideas.

However, this kind of crooked thinking is destined to be a useless exercise.

Since Li Kuan has launched a silver ticket, how can he not work anti-counterfeiting.

If you can't solve this problem, you might as well not push it out.

After all, he has the most say in the impact of financial risks.

……

"Lord Wang, today my subordinates heard a statement that the launch of silver tickets is meaningless, and it is not as useful as the previous deposit receipts."

Wang Xuanwu, as the head of the Intelligence Investigation Bureau, obviously heard something from somewhere.

Although he didn't believe it, he reported it anyway.

"Oh, why is that said?"

Li Kuan was not too surprised.

During this time, the promotion of silver tickets was actually smoother than I imagined, and it was normal for some people to question it.

"Because the silver ticket is bearer, if you lose it, you will lose a lot. In the past, if everyone deposited money into the Tang Royal Bank, there would be a deposit receipt as a certificate, which required special verification to take out the money, even if it was accidentally lost, others might not be able to use it. ”

"The silver ticket is bearer, and isn't this gold and silver coin also bearer? As for the certificate of deposit, the deposit alone requires a custody fee, which limits its development. Besides, for commercial development, the free circulation of money is the most important thing, and certificates of deposit do not have the attribute of free circulation at all, which can only solve the problem of inconvenience of carrying money in other places. ”

After all, Wang Xuanwu was his own right-hand man in the city, and Li Kuan still briefly explained his thoughts.

As for saving money and collecting storage fees, although this practice is completely contrary to later generations, it is also a characteristic of the times.

Before the birth of modern banks, everyone went to the bank to deposit gold, silver and copper coins, which was actually inconvenient to keep, and collecting custody fees was a matter of course for everyone.

When the day comes, the banknotes are recognized by everyone, the money bank can consider paying interest to depositors.

"But it's like a thousand silver tickets, if you lose it, the loss is really great. Besides, if someone imitates it, won't the money bank have to lose all its money? ”

"The person who can copy our silver ticket has not yet been born. As for the loss, it is up to everyone to be careful. You can lose such a large silver ticket, which means that you are not short of this money.

And, strictly speaking, each of our silver tickets actually has a code, which really takes effort to manage, and it is not impossible to track, but it requires a lot of manpower. ”

"Can you track it? If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about. It is rare to actually encounter a loss situation, so when the time comes, you can consider whether to track it down according to the situation. ”

It was the first time that Wang Xuanwu had heard that the silver ticket could be tracked, and he was a little surprised.

However, it also made him breathe a sigh of relief.

During this time, he has heard a lot of news related to silver tickets.

"Each silver ticket has its own unique code, and when he redeems it from the Datang Royal Bank, he has to register some information. As long as you follow these clues, you can theoretically figure out the ins and outs of the silver ticket. However, in fact, the circulation of each silver ticket may be very complicated, and it may not be possible to investigate it if it is really investigated, but it is just a means to keep it there. ”

Li Kuan did not let people introduce this content in "Datang Daily".

After all, this approach itself is not rigorous enough, and if it is said, it will make people add unnecessary worries out of thin air.

"It's still the prince's thoughtfulness. The subordinates arranged for people to start transporting silver tickets to the Datang Royal Money Village branch in major state capitals such as Liangzhou, Dengzhou, Luoyang, Yangzhou, and Hangzhou, and the shopkeeper Wang had been urging me for several days. ”

The printing of silver tickets is naturally absolutely confidential, and it will not be done everywhere.

Therefore, the silver tickets of each Qianzhuang branch were transported from Chang'an.

For this reason, Li Kuan also came forward to fool people to form a dart game.

In order to make the business of this dart game acceptable to more merchants, this dart game has nothing to do with the Chu Palace.

It was jointly formed by the children of several military generals in Chang'an City.

Among them, Li Jing's second son, Li Dexian, is the big shopkeeper.

"Okay, the delivery of this silver ticket, as well as the delivery of some deposit certificates, will be more and more in the future, this time you will let Li De Award's Shunfeng Dart Bureau take on some of the tasks. In the future, some goods transportation in Datang can be gradually entrusted, and the palace guards will shift their attention to other places. ”

Li Kuan's decision can be regarded as a pair of wings for Li De's downwind dart game.

In order to further develop Datang's business, the emergence and development of the dart game is also very necessary.

Historically, the rapid expansion of the scale of the dart game in the Ming and Qing dynasties is also closely related to the rapid development of the financial industry.

Since Li Kuan hopes that the Datang Royal Money Village can realize the idea of exchanging the world, it is necessary to encourage the development of some supporting things together.

Just like in recent months, several small-scale money banks have been opened on the Chang'an City route, and Wang Fugui asked whether to suppress it, but Li Kuan did not agree.

When a hundred flowers bloom, it is spring!

……

"Aye, I heard that the Datang Royal Money House earned more than 500,000 yuan last year, so the Jing Zhaowei family and the Gu family in Jiangnan have both opened a new money bank in Chang'an City, should we also consider opening a money bank?"

When the eldest grandson Chong was drinking with Zheng Hai in Wuheju, he heard about the profitability of the Tang Royal Bank, and his heart began to itch.

"The most important thing for this money bank is to have a high degree of credibility and can also develop in multiple places in tandem, so that it can make money. For example, the Jingzhao Wei family and the Jiangnan Gu family had similar businesses in the early years, but now they have just upgraded. But our eldest grandson's family has never been in contact with it, and if you enter rashly, you may not be able to make money. ”

In terms of dealing with the financial industry, Changsun Wuji is obviously relatively conservative.

No way, this thing is really a bit difficult to understand.

"I see that Jing Zhaowei's family has opened two new workshops this month, and it is said that the funds are all lent by the bank. Now we have invested a lot of money in Shuozhou and Guangzhou, and there is not much money available in the treasury at home, if we can use the money of the money in the money to develop our own industry like the Wei family and the Gu family, the speed must be very different. ”

"Datang Royal Qian Zhuang didn't say that it wouldn't give me a loan, there is really a need, and it's okay to find them."

Eldest Sun Wuji is obviously not so easily persuaded, especially when it comes to such a major matter.

"I don't want Li Kuan to lie down and earn our money."

The eldest grandson muttered.

However, seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji was resolute, he didn't say anything more.

After all, today's eldest grandson's family is still the eldest grandson Wuji's family.
