Dao Xian suggested that Li Tangshan first unify the currency of Longchuan with the Central Plains, and cast square hole round coins according to the Central Plains currency style, which are consistent with the Qin money and half a tael.

According to its weight, it can be divided into two types: one or two types and half two types. One or two types of round round hole money, the face is slightly larger than the back hole, no outline, the back is plain; The face text has "the pearl weighs one tael twelve", "the pearl weighs one tael fourteen", the bead is the meaning of the circle or circle, "one tael" is the face value, "the pearl weighs one tael", that is, the weight of this 1 yuan is 1 tael. The half-two-type is called "half-circle" money, and it is also round and round, and there is no outline. There is a symmetrical "half-eye" on the face, the font is large, the casting method is also more primitive, the diameter is smaller, weighing 6.9 grams to 7 grams, nearly half a tael.

Li Tangshan asked: "How can a new currency be issued to make the people like to use money?" I mean how to promote? ”

Dao Xian: "To combine political and financial means, we must first establish the legitimacy and uniqueness of Qin Qian. ”

Li Tangshan: "You mean to pass an executive order to force the Baiyue tribes around Longchuan to use copper money for trading. We have long been this order, Baiyue people believe in barter, this way since ancient times? "Dao Xian:" The people of Great Qin could not refuse Qin money for any reason, and put an end to bartering in Longchuan County, which greatly increased the economic activity of Longchuan. The second step is to set up branches in important towns such as Xingning, Wuhua and Jieyang to provide people with free exchange of copper coins. The third step is to provide market transactions, so that the Qin currency has an actual value, and the price is stipulated: the price of millet is only about a few dozen dollars per stone, and a bucket of rice is only three and a half Qin taels. The fourth step is to establish a regulatory system for the market to ensure money supply and illegal activities such as private coinage. ”

Li Tangshan nodded, this knife is indeed not simple, and it is similar to modern financial management.

Dao Xian also told Li Tangshan that the shape of the "half tael" money is very political, and it is a symbol of the "Mandate of Heaven and Imperial Power" in the Qin Dynasty. The rulers of the Qin Dynasty believed that the outer circle symbolized the mandate of heaven, and the inner side represented the imperial power, and made the money into the shape of the outer circle and the inner square, symbolizing the king's domination of the world and the supremacy of imperial power.

Li Tangshan listened carefully.

Dao Xian continued to analyze: "In addition, from the perspective of material utilization and production process, the shape of "half a tael" money is more economical than any other shape, which is an optimal choice, and the square hole in the idle is convenient for fixing and repairing. ”

Li Tangshan finally this Qin Qian is still this benefit.

Dao Xian: "And the following benefits are the most important." It is not only conducive to the collection of taxes in feudal countries, but also provides convenience for the development of commodity economy, and at the same time promotes the formation of economic communities in a vast territory. ”

Li Tangshan knew that the European Community would also issue the euro in later generations, that is, to form an economic community within the territory.

Dao Xian and Li Tangshan also established a caravan to trade with the Central Plains.

Li Tangshan said to Dao Xian and Lu Duan: "The economic structure has been basically clear, and now there is an urgent need for a project that can make money quickly to drive economic development." ”

Lu Duan: "Father, call the third girl, she is more familiar with the situation around Longchuan County than any of us." ”

Li Tangshan sighed: "How did I forget her! , Lu Duan, you go and invite the third girl to come over, and ask her to go to Changle Countryside to have a look."

There is a chestnut forest on the northeastern slope of the Xishan Mountain of the Languan tribe in Changle Township, and the chestnuts in it have accumulated a thick layer.

The birds love to come here to feed, and the ripe cracked chestnuts are their favorite.

Li Tangshan didn't pay much attention to it before, after all, there are small vendors selling sugar and fried chestnuts on the streets of civilized society.

But now Longchuan County is particularly short of money, which is why I think that fried chestnuts with sugar is a good deal to make money.

"Don't you eat these things?" Li Tangshan looked at the third girl and asked.

The third girl looked at Li Tangshan with some puzzlement and said, "These fruits are raw and astringent, what is delicious." ”

Li Tangshan was speechless for a while, of course this chestnut is not delicious when eaten raw.

The chestnuts on the tree were almost ripe, and Li Tangshan looked at these chestnuts and was stunned.

"What month is it? What season? I asked.

"In the tenth month of the lunar calendar, autumn." The third girl said, "Why do you keep asking strange questions?" ”

Li Tangshan suddenly fell into thinking about something: "This should be the time to produce chestnuts." ”

"Sir, you don't intend to sell these unpalatable fruits, do you?" The third girl said in surprise.

Li Tangshan smiled and said, "Of course, I can make these unpalatable fruits very sweet." ”

On the way back to the Lanxiang tribe, Li Tangshan and the third girl were lucky to meet a hare.

It was very unlucky to die on the stone thrown by Li Tangshan.

After Li Tangshan took the hare back, he cleaned it up by the stream.

Then Li Tangshan took the hare meat back to the yard and made a fire to roast it.

The third girl was very careful to sprinkle salt on the hare, and she looked preoccupied.

Li Tangshan rolled the rabbit meat and said: "If everything goes well, the people will not have to be so bitter in the future." ”

The third girl looked at Li Tangshan and said, "You are so confident?" ”

Li Tangshan filled the fire with some firewood and said, "Since I have said it, I will definitely do it." ”

The rabbit meat is grilled for about an hour and a half, and the tantalizing aroma and crispy yellow skin are mouth-watering.

Li Tangshan took a knife and cut the rabbit meat into two parts. I handed the extra one to the third girl.

"Eat too much, give me the less." The three girls reached out to take it.

Li Tangshan slapped her hand and said, "You are the time to grow your body, now eat more meat to make up for it, and see how thin you have become." ”

The third girl picked up the rabbit meat with a little hesitation and ate it, and she choked up and cried after eating it for a while.

Li Tangshan hurriedly wiped her tears and said, "Why are you crying?" ”

"Sir, no one has ever been so nice to me." The third girl cried and said, "The rabbit meat is so delicious." ”

Li Tangshan touched her head and couldn't help but say with pity: "Eat more if it's delicious." ”

The third girl wiped her tears and grabbed the rabbit meat with her hands and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Sir, we're going back." The three girls said after eating their fill.

Li Tangshan nodded and said, "Okay!" You wait for me. ”

At the entrance of the tribal village, Li Tangshan and the three girls met the Changle Township Changlan Hu.

Li Tangshan introduced the three girls to Lan Hu, and the three girls nodded to Lan Hu and said hello.

Lan Hu also nodded to the third girl, and asked Li Tangshan, "Sir, what should I do next?" ”

The third girl sighed and said, "Sir wants to collect chestnuts from Xishan and sell them in the city." ”

Lan Hu was slightly stunned, and the hope in his eyes dimmed instantly.
