At the same time, Lu Shi is most clear that as long as he makes the industry bigger and stronger, with these refined products, in foreign trade, in exchange for enough silver, there is a monetary guarantee for the IOU, then he can continue to expand the issuance of IOUs, (now called RMB), so that he can not rely on the monetary system of the Ming Dynasty, but also get rid of the Ming Dynasty's restrictions on his own development in the currency.

After all, the current base does not produce copper, let alone silver, everything depends on the Ming Dynasty issued by the old currency to maintain, this is to stretch their necks into the noose of the imperial court, once those black-hearted Qingliu money division, once again, like Nanjing in the early years of the Apocalypse, with the help of "high technology", cast flying money that can float on the water, or simply give you a money of one as ten, when hundred, then the fragile economy of their base area will collapse instantly.

Everything is in his own hands, and Lu Shicai is relieved.

Through low-interest loans, let the people use this kind of RMB to buy seeds and farm tools, which is equivalent to a very humane feeling, in fact, it is a disguised forced implementation of the circulation of RMB in the market, which is more helpless than the beginning, let everyone use potatoes in exchange for benevolence.

At the beginning, although everyone accepted the IOUs issued by the local government for the sake of the village patriarch, there was still a simple sense of gratitude in it, and of course it was inevitable that there would be those people who resisted these IOUs in the open and secret.

But now it's different, if you want seeds and farm tools, as well as urgently needed daily necessities, then you have to take out a loan and accept RMB, but in this way, there is less burden in the hearts of the homeless, first, although this paper money also has interest, but the low scary, it is indispensable, second, you can use this paper money in exchange for farm tool seeds, then even in the future, this paper money has become a piece of waste paper, that has also been benefited, which is equivalent to getting farm tools seeds and daily necessities in vain, in the hearts of some people, I was still vaguely looking forward to this beautiful paper, which could be turned into waste paper overnight, and everyone would get countless benefits in vain.

But what they think, Lu Shi didn't know, but those businessmen and the original aborigines of the base area got a good signal, that is, this renminbi was issued and released by the Qianzhuang Bank opened by the government of the base area, which represented real money and silver, and at the same time, Qianzhuang demanded that when the people repay the loan in the future, they must also use this renminbi to repay the loan, so what does that mean? It shows that within a year, the RMB will not become waste paper, even if it is impossible to depreciate, especially under the low scary interest, if it depreciates, it is not the people who will lose, but the local government.

In particular, Lu Shi also issued an order during this period, which was a loss order.

Anyone who has RMB in his hand, after half a year, can exchange real money and silver according to the original agreement, which is not a big deal, the most important thing is in the back.

Lu Shi stipulated that all purchases of the commercial and produced materials held by the government of the base area will only be charged in renminbi and will not be allowed to buy money. At the same time, Lu Shi ordered that all the silver money that received foreign merchants brought in, the government not only purchased the materials transported in from other places, but also purchased all the materials in the hands of the people except potatoes, on a voluntary basis, except for silver or RMB, and all the remaining gold and silver were stored in the treasury, and the key was hung on the waist of the third uncle, and no one else could use it.

But again, to raise taxes and buy things produced by the local government, you must use RMB.

At this moment, it can be regarded as choking the pulse.

Now, almost all of the most in-demand and high-end materials are controlled in the workshops of the local government, such as Lao Baigan, who is hard to find, such as the snow-white potato vermicelli, the beautiful Zhen Huan women's clothing, the air-dried rabbit meat, and the superb saber and gun (of course, these two things are still monopolized by Zheng Hongda, and others have no right to interfere, but even if Zheng Hongda pulls the copper and silver of the whole car, it is not good, and he must go to the money to exchange for RMB) and the small agricultural machinery that is simply an artifact, not to mention the artifact-like windmill.

In this base area, there are countless carpenters who make windmills, but no matter how old the master is, he can't do it so well, so solid, and so advanced in the government joint-stock workshop in the base area, this is because, in that workshop, there is a deep essence of King Chuang Erlang who is a major shareholder and is doing continuous improvement.

Also, salt, in fact, Lu Shi is not in favor of commodity monopoly, as long as the monopoly will appear, there will be a monopoly to hurt the peasants, even if it is weapons, steel, Lu Shi wants to give production at the right time, give production liberalization, there is no competition, if you want to continue to innovate, there must be competition, look, those old tools for making vermicelli, now in the competition of countless workshop owners and carpenters, there has been a sixth generation.

However, the current salt is a scarce material, the base does not produce salt, everything depends on Yancheng, Shanxi, and Qingtang in Gansu (now also called Shaanxi) to produce, relying on the smuggling of merchants to barely satisfy, the monopoly of salt is helpless, Lu Shi is using this kind of people's daily necessities, disguised forced bundling to launch the renminbi.

No matter how ulterior motives the above methods were at the beginning, the effect is surprisingly good.

No matter what those merchants thought, they had to take out a part of the commodities and use them to accept the renminbi, so that they could use it to pay taxes, and use it to buy the products produced by the government of the base area. In fact, this is a disguised alleviation of the base bank, the risk of squeezing out the silver, the people can take this colorful paper in exchange for goods, then they are more willing to take this fluttering thing, and no longer have to pay when they have to stare at the small tractor of the profiteer who weighs the silver to see if it is a traitor, to see if the big scissors are more and less chaotic.

Once, even Zheng Hongda, a red-capped businessman, came to discuss with Lu Shi, hoping that he could use cash to buy weapons directly, after all, it was too troublesome, sometimes the RMB was insufficient, and he had to run multiple money banks, and he had to wait for a few days to deploy, which was definitely suspected of taking off his pants and farting.

But this back door was directly rejected by Lu Shi, who smiled at that time and said sternly: "You call it entrustment, you call bribery, you call it illegal (referring to the law of the base area), you are sabotaging the construction of the base area, you are a counter-revolutionary, Zhao Xing." ”

Zhao Xing, who was always hiding in Lu Shi's figure, immediately came out and said with a serious face: "King Chuang, what are your orders?" ”

"What kind of verdict should you judge Zheng Hongda for the above crimes?"

Zhao Xing immediately recited words in his mouth, and then said: "Guilty of three, capital crime two, how many times should we kill King Chuang?" ”

At that time, Zheng Hongda slipped away and took his subordinates to queue up all night to exchange, and he didn't dare to say anything anymore.

Therefore, now the entire base area has miraculously popularized the paper money that has been difficult to implement in all dynasties, and has become the mainstream of circulation in the world.

Therefore, now the administrative officials and loan officers are talking about RMB loans, which also accelerates the circulation of RMB in the newly occupied areas, even the newly attached landlords have begun to quietly collect RMB, because the new King Chuang stipulates that even if it is a protection fee, it can also be settled in RMB, as long as the corresponding RMB is taken out, you can not pay the fire consumption loss. In this way, people put in peace of mind, a few pieces or a stack of paper into their arms, and immediately laughed and beat the horse and left, with themselves and the thief, no, now it should be called the ----- two pennies of the breaking army, why not.

Getting back to the point, the administrative officer, the loan officer, the two of them saw that this house was fine, so they didn't bother anymore, and hurried to the next house, and now all the people sent out from the base area are busy on all fours.

Just about to leave, the man gratitatively grabbed the two, took out the two largest of the few potatoes, stuffed them into the hands of the two, and said humbly: "It's noon, hurry up and eat two potatoes to pad and be busy." ”

As soon as the two saw the potatoes, they immediately felt that their stomachs were turning upside down, and they didn't care about speaking, so they covered their mouths and fled.

The man held two huge potatoes and muttered with tears in his eyes: "What a good man, it's really like the song sings, don't take a stitch from the people, King Chuang, come quickly." We hope that you will rescue more people from the sea of suffering

The people looked forward to the arrival of King Chuang, but they suffered Gao Yingxiang.

At this time, Gao Yingxiang kept moving forward, but he was even more depressed along the way. Looking at the government clerks and loan officers under Lu Shi, who were running around on the edge of his team, sometimes he simply didn't want the protection of the militia, and ran in front of Gao Yingxiang's team, they didn't even look at Gao Yingxiang and the mood of the long line, which made Gao Yingxiang extremely faceless, and he was ignored by people with thousands of troops and horses, Gao Yingxiang's heart was dripping blood, and he wanted to cry without tears.

This is also too arrogant, this is also too despised people, but looking at their good clothes, the bright guns in the hands of the militia, no one dares to hit their thoughts, what is even more bullying is that since the last incident, it seems that Lu Shi does not need to help get out of the ownerless land by himself, along the way, I saw a fortress, and I wanted to come forward to loot again, but when I got closer, a small group of militiamen stood in front of the fort, and loudly declared to Gao Yingxiang's tens of thousands of troops: "This fort has been attached to the invasion army and paid a full amount of protection fees. The policy of rent reduction and interest reduction was agreed, and now the fort has been protected by the intruding army, and no horse is allowed to invade and plunder.

So, Gao Yingxiang could only turn around and leave.

These days, there are two fortresses that are not open, and they are not protected by the intruding army, which has allowed Gao Yingxiang to get some food supplements and some silver income.

What's even more annoying is that everyone originally walked at will, regardless of what roads and fields he had, but now it doesn't work, and small flags are on the side of the road, which reads: "The march must not trample on the fields." ”

There are also small groups of militiamen watching fiercely, as long as one dares to trample on the field, it will be a gun immediately, if one wants to loot the thatched hut on the side of the road, even if it is just to enter the house and drink some cold water for free, the militia immediately beckoned a group of companions with a gun, and the looter was punished on the spot, under this blatant blatant, no one could even think of resisting, for no other reason, because ten miles away, there were Lu Shi's seven thousand horses and tigers eyeing him.

Gao Yingxiang wiped the sweat from his head, raised his eyes to look behind him, and couldn't help muttering, now, what is that annoying Lu Shi doing?

In fact, the current Lu Shi is thinking about how to give him Gao Yingxiang, but this is a big surprise to Gao Yingxiang.

What does Lu Shi want to give him?
