Death is also known as absolute, which refers to the behavior of the pawn who neither redeems nor renews.

In other words, Wei Yunzhong doesn't want the properties of the seventy-four gentry, he wants to turn these properties into silver.

The shopkeeper of the ticket number was stunned for a moment, then squinted slightly, and quietly began to go through the formalities for Wei Yunzhong.

In fact, the shopkeeper's heart was already roaring.

The combined properties of the seventy-four gentry are definitely more than one million taels.

The reason why only so many estimates were made was because the king ordered it.

In addition to real estate and shops, other properties can only estimate the price of 10%.

It's not that Wang Zezhi wants to pit Wei Yunzhong, it's that these industries are no longer worth the original price.

Take the dyeing workshop as an example, since Wang Zezhi killed these squires, the workers in the workshop have all run away.

Some workers also dismantled the dyeing equipment before they ran, and a good dyeing workshop was worthless.

Speaking of coal mines, the quality and reserves of coal mines are not clear, so the valuation of coal mines is not high.

The shopkeeper knew that the price estimate was low, but Wei Yunzhong didn't think it was low.

He has been an official for so many years, and he has never seen so much silver.

More than 1.8 million taels of silver completely exceeded Wei Yunzhong's expectations, so he was very satisfied with the shopkeeper's offer.

Wei Yunzhong was worried that he wouldn't be able to get so much silver for the ticket number, so he planned to take all the silver.

The shopkeeper of the ticket number smiled and led him to the back warehouse for inspection.

I saw that all the way away, heavily guarded.

When they arrived at the storeroom, they encountered a steel coded door.

The shopkeeper entered the password, turned the round valve, and opened the storeroom.

The storehouse was filled with silver, and the walls of the storeroom were inlaid with night pearls, shining brightly throughout the storehouse.

Even the well-informed Wei Yunzhong gasped, he had never seen so much silver in so many years as an official.

"It's... How many wagons do you have to pull it through? Wei Yunzhong muttered to himself.

"Adults don't have to worry about this, we have a silver ticket for the ticket number.

As long as you take a silver ticket, you can deposit and withdraw as much as you want, and you can take it whenever you want.

In this way, adults don't have to worry about transportation.

Of course, you don't have to worry about taking care of the silver two. ”

The ticket number shopkeeper patiently explained.

"Oh, and the silver ticket?"

"Yes, it's like a Ming treasure banknote."

"I see."

The Ming Dynasty banknote is the only banknote officially issued by the Ming Dynasty, which has been in circulation in the Ming Dynasty for more than 270 years.

Ming Taizu Hongwu was built in eight years.

Due to the lack of copper at that time, so Ming Hongwu promulgated the "banknote law" in seven years, set up the treasure banknote lifting division, and then set up papermaking, banknote printing two bureaus and treasure banknotes, two libraries.

It was issued the following year under the name of Nanjing, Zhongshu Province.

With a frame of about 30 centimeters high and 20 centimeters wide, it is the largest banknote in the world. Romance

Daming treasure banknotes inside and outside are full of a "big" word, its denomination is divided into five grades: one through, five hundred Wen, three hundred Wen, two hundred Wen, one hundred Wen, which has always been equal to one thousand copper coins or one tael of silver, four through one tael of gold, is an authentic "big money".

Daming treasure banknotes are more concise and symmetrical in layout design, concise text, and delicate engraving.

The banknote body is a vertical rectangle, and the flower bar is a dragon, a tangled branch caricature, a cloud pattern, etc.

The upper end of the inner column is written with the amount of banknotes, and the two sides of the money map are "Daming treasure banknotes" and "pass the world" nine stacks of seal characters.

However, due to the poor paper at that time, the Ming Dynasty banknotes were difficult to last, and the Ming Dynasty banknotes were only issued and not received, neither demarcated, nor recycled old banknotes, and the number of issued banknotes was unlimited, resulting in more and more paper money circulating in the market, flooding, inflation in the year of issuance, depreciation was extremely fast, like waste paper, and the people abandoned it.

Wei Yunzhong naturally knew about the Daming treasure banknotes, and when he heard the shopkeeper say that the silver tickets were like the Daming treasure banknotes, he immediately frowned.

If the silver ticket is like the Daming treasure banknote, then he still has to be cautious.

The shopkeeper naturally knew what Wei Yunzhong was worried about, and when Wei Yunzhong frowned, he began to explain with a smile.

Silver tickets have been around since ancient times, dating back to the Song Dynasty.

In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, there were "silver ticket shops" in Chengdu, Sichuan, who operated cash storage business for merchants carrying huge sums of money.

The depositor delivers the cash to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper temporarily fills in the amount of cash deposited by the depositor on a roll made of paper, and then returns it to the depositor, and when the depositor withdraws cash, he pays a 3% custody fee for every 30 yuan of interest paid to the shopkeeper.

This kind of paper coupon that temporarily fills in the deposit amount is called a "silver ticket", and the "silver ticket" at this time is only a deposit and withdrawal voucher, not a currency.

With the development of the commodity economy, the use of "silver tickets" is becoming more and more extensive, and many merchants jointly set up silver ticket shops specializing in issuing and exchanging "Jiaozi", and set up silver ticket branches in various places.

Because the silver ticket shop abides by the credit, take it at any time, the printed "silver ticket" pattern is exquisite, hidden as a mark, black and red between the wrong, handwritten words, others are difficult to forge, so the "silver ticket" has won a high reputation.

In order to avoid the trouble of transporting coins for large transactions between merchants, there are also increasing cases of direct payment for goods with "silver tickets" that can be turned into cash at any time.

It is in the process of repeated circulation that the "silver bill" gradually acquires the character of credit money.

Later, the bank ticket shop found that only part of the deposit was used, and the credibility of the "silver ticket" would not be jeopardized.

As a result, they began to print "silver bills" with a uniform denomination and format and issued them to the market as a new means of circulation.

This "silver ticket" is already a symbol of coinage, and it has truly become a silver ticket.

The shopkeeper of the ticket number knew what Wei Yunzhong was worried about, and he was worried that the ticket number was only for profit and malicious fraud, and he would not pay it after issuing the silver ticket indiscriminately.

The shopkeeper repeatedly assured that their ticket number was here, and this kind of thing would not happen.

Besides, their ticket numbers are also responsible for paying the sergeants, and this kind of thing doesn't happen at all.

After the shopkeeper's repeated assurances, Lieutenant General Wei Yun suspiciously handled the silver ticket and immediately began to redeem it with great interest.

"I'll take a hundred taels."

The shopkeeper took a hundred taels of silver for Wei Yunzhong.

Wei Yunzhong picked up the silver and weighed it on the nickname in the ticket number.

In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, merchants carried a chisel with them, the former for cutting gold and silver, and a small scale, the latter for weighing weight.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, a large amount of overseas silver flowed in, and there was a full circulation of silver in the market, and silver became the most important currency of the Ming Dynasty.

However, despite the widespread use of silver, the Ming government never intended to mint silver into standardized silver coins, nor did it even establish a set of standards for fineness and weights and measures.

Therefore, it is very troublesome to use silver as currency, first of all, every transaction paid for in silver, when settling, you have to weigh the weight of silver.

Secondly, it is necessary to check the fineness of the silver, whether it is full of silver.

Finally, if you go to the outside, you have to convert weights and measures, because the weighing standards are not the same in different places.

"It's a good thing. Hahaha... Save it for the officer. ”

The silver horn of the ticket number shopkeeper twitched, his face did not change, and he saved it for Wei Yunzhong with a smile.
