Chapter 316: Dispute over the Minting and Banknote Printing Workshop
Qian Liyuan, the iron supervisor sent by the imperial court, was originally an old official of the copper prison for decades, and he was very familiar with the casting of copper coins and iron coins, and he was even more familiar with the art of coinage.
However, since he came to Meizhou and entered the Meizhou New Coin Minting and Printing Workshop, he was refreshed by the manufacturing process of Meizhou New Coin and his inherent concept of coinage.
"Why can't I know the formula of the raw materials, but I was sent by the imperial court to supervise the minting of new coins."
"Lord Qian, in order to prevent the leakage of key things such as the minting process, casting materials, printing paper, printing ink, etc., in our coinage and banknote printing workshop, no one is allowed to know the formula of these materials."
"As the money supervisor of Meizhou new currency minting and printing, this official can't know every process of your Meizhou new coin, so what is the use of this official coming here."
"Lord Qian, our Meizhou new coin, only our Lord Thorn Shi knows all the processes, he will never allow it, and the manufacturing process of Meizhou new currency will be spread."
"Will the official leak the process of the new coin? Is this Meizhou money supervisor in charge of this official? ”
"Forgive me, Lord Qian, we have to put an end to this possibility, so we can't obey our fate."
"You ...... Okay, okay, okay, I'm going to find you Assassin Shi-sama. "Qian Liyuan was angry with the people in the coinage and money printing workshop.
"Lord Qian, what makes you so angry?" Zhao Yuan, who was coming to the coinage and printing workshop, heard these words outside the door and asked loudly.
"Zhao Tingshi, it's good that you're here. Since this official was appointed by the imperial court and came to Meizhou, he must be loyal to his duties and do a good job in the affairs of the money supervisor, but now you, the person in the coinage and printing workshop, actually don't let me understand the process of coinage and banknote printing, which makes me do things. Seeing Zhao Yuan, Qian Tiejian asked loudly.
"Lord Qian is angry, blame me for not making it clear to you, I've been busy accompanying Lord Zhao Zheng to visit the people of my Meizhou in the past few days." Zhao Yuan looked at Qian Liyuan's angry appearance, and roughly knew that this was an official with the spirit of a craftsman, and said in apology.
"Then please ask Zhao Tingshi to advise the lower officials, why, I can't know all the details of Meizhou's new currency?"
"Don't worry, Lord Qian, it's okay for us to sit and talk, and the official will definitely explain it to you in detail."
"Meet Lord Thorn." At this time, everyone in the coinage and printing workshop, who was finally able to interject, saluted Zhao Yuan.
"No need to be polite, everyone has worked hard, let's go and get busy."
Zhao Yuan asked the technicians and workers of the coinage and printing workshop to work separately, and motioned for Qian Liyuan to follow him to the office.
"Lord Qian, don't worry, you can take a look at this document." Sitting in the office, Zhao Yuan waved his hand to stop Qian Liyuan, who was about to say something, and handed him a document.
"What is this?"
"Lord Qian will know by looking at it."
"Meizhou Singapore Dollar Management Rules?"
"Let's take a look first, if there is anything I don't understand in a while, Lord Qian can ask me directly."
"Okay, the lower official is rude."
After Qian Liyuan finished speaking, he opened the book "Meizhou New Currency Management Rules" and began to look at it carefully.
Seeing this, Zhao Yuan smiled slightly, and began to look through the documents on his desk to understand the current progress of the issuance of Meizhou's new currency.
Up to now, all the new coins minted and printed in the early stage have been issued and scattered to Meizhou money banks all over Meizhou. People all over Meizhou have the highest acceptance of the coins in the new currency, and they still have great doubts about paper money.
At the same time, because the new currency is about to be revised, the minting and printing of the old version of the new currency has been stopped, and the Meizhou money houses opened in various parts of Meizhou have accumulated a large number of exchange needs for new currency, which is affected by the fact that the paper money in the new currency has been exchanged by the people for a small part.
Meizhou new currency, in Meizhou circulation in various parts of the country, the overall stability, although there are still merchants do not recognize the occurrence of new currency, but the number of such things, has been reduced from the beginning of thousands of times a day, to less than 100 times a day.
Meizhou Daily, the propaganda about the new currency has not stopped, basically every issue of the newspaper, there are how to know the Meizhou new currency, how to identify the anti-counterfeiting mark of the Meizhou new currency, and how to exchange the Meizhou new currency and the copper and iron coins that are still in circulation.
At the same time, the various industrial shops under the name of Lord Thorn Shi are equipped with special new currency interpreters, specially for the merchants who buy Meizhou goods, to explain the convenience and safety of Meizhou new currency, so that more foreign merchants who come to Meizhou can slowly accept and use Meizhou new currency for settlement.
"Looks like it's not bad." After reading all the documents, Zhao Yuan already had an understanding of the current situation of Meizhou's new currency.
On the side, Qian Liyuan, who was still carefully looking at the "Meizhou New Currency Management Rules", had begun to sweat in his head, and from this detailed rules, he learned that the Meizhou New Currency was definitely not a simple matter of simply casting and printing the currency and then issuing it.
From this "Meizhou New Coin Management Rules", Qian Liyuan, as an old copper supervisor, quickly understood that the minting and printing of Meizhou new coins, as well as the issuance, and the exchange of all kinds of coins still in circulation, all aspects are very strict, all the problems he can think of, all the problems he can think of in this book, many problems that he never thought of before, all in this book.
"Your Majesty, yes, I want to write to Your Majesty, the currency minted and issued by the imperial court has big problems in it, and there are too many loopholes." Qian Liyuan looked at it, suddenly stood up and said loudly.
"Lord Qian is not in a hurry, I can show you this document, it proves that I have no ill will towards the imperial court, the loophole of the imperial court's currency, in fact, the official already knew it a few years ago."
"What do you mean by this?"
"This official shows you this document, which shows that there are many loopholes in the imperial court's currency minting and issuance, but even Meizhou, only this official knows this, and now there is one more you, as long as we don't talk about these loopholes, the currency minting and issuance that has been inherited for so many years will not be a problem in a short time."
"Now that the lower officials know, do they still have to watch the imperial court currency problem continue to exist?"
"Lord Qian, there is nothing the official can do about this matter, and you are even more powerless, besides, the note I wrote to Your Majesty has actually vaguely mentioned some things in this regard, and Your Majesty should have his considerations."
"Zhao Tingshi, you are really direct when you speak."
Qian Liyuan held the "Meizhou New Currency Management Rules" in both hands, gently put it on Zhao Yuan's desk, and his body suddenly fell soft on the seat.
"When the official speaks, he has never liked to go around the corner, and for Lord Qian, the official hopes to be honest with you."
"It's a good thing to be honest, Zhao Tingshi, your ambition has been completely exposed in the matter of Meizhou's new currency."
"This official has never had any ambitions, otherwise, this official would not have written to Your Majesty, Meizhou new coin, after it is proved feasible in Shudi, its mode of minting and issuance, and even the current coinage and printing workshop, as well as several years of technicians and workers, can be completely handed over to the imperial court."
"The lower officials should believe the words of Lord Assassin Shi, and they will always watch over you for Your Majesty."
"Lord Qian, look at it, I think this official will not disappoint you."
Zhao Yuan laughed and left the coinage and printing workshop, and after Zhao Yuan left, the iron supervisor also walked out of Zhao Yuan's office, took out the era name written by His Majesty himself, and handed it to the mold maker in the workshop, so that they could print the date name on the new version of the new coin's minting and printing template.
