Chapter 119 - Introducing a New Currency
When the people of the world were talking about this important event, Lin Tian, who was far away in the north, had not yet received the news. Yidi did not realize that a catastrophe was coming, and after a period of baptism and running-in between the four tribes, the people of each tribe had basically forgotten the strong clan concept.
It's not that the concept of clan is not absent, but it's not as strong as it used to be. There will be no longer exclusion to contact and communication between ethnic groups, and there will be more movement and popularity among all ethnic groups.
Even if the A-Min Po tribe is far away in the land of Xiyi, it is often going back and forth with the Dongyi, under the leadership of Zalu Huchi, the A-Min Po Department took the initiative to communicate with the Dongyi tribes, and during the time that Lin Tian left, the A-Min Po tribe and other tribes have a lot of close relations.
In the days after Lin Tian came back, he was basically confined to the main altar of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, and the affairs of the big family needed Lin Tian to pass through it, even if it had been approved and implemented, Lin Tian needed to know about it, and he would file it here. As a decision-making body, the Council of Elders intends to resolutely be responsible to Lin Tian to the end.
During this period of time, Lin Tian only went down the mountain to Fenglin City to meet the others, had a meal with everyone, and after contacting the relationship, he went up to the hump again. Lin Tian handed over the hospitality to Wu Yao to Lan Zi'an, and with Wu Yao, the landlord, here, Lin Tian was not afraid of poor hospitality. Wu Yao's previous burden, she didn't want to go back to pick it up, anyway, if someone picks it up, let them do it. The current Wu Yao must have decreased a lot of her careerism compared to before, and she seems to prefer her current life.
In the past, for Wuheng, she was full of body and soul to all kinds of things in Wuheng, and she had little time to enjoy her life. Now that the land is peaceful, the people can be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment, and Wuheng is also taken care of by Badr, and Wu Yao has nothing to worry about. So for her, the current life is what she wants.
Lin Tian, who had gone out for a trip, also paid more attention to dealing with these affairs after coming back, and had seen the prosperity and strength of the southern countries, he was a little anxious in his heart, thinking that it was still a little difficult for Yidi to be born. For example, when he returned from writing a letter from Dangchang City, the letter was actually delivered, but the Presbyterian Council received it last month.
The messenger hired by Lin Tianhua is still more focused on life. The dry period of the Fu River ended last month, and the messenger of the desert road definitely did not dare to walk, so the messenger lived in Ishihara City for a month, and then saw the fleet of Beiyi going out, and only then did he complete the task.
After the Council of Elders got Lin Tian's news, they began to arrange it after urgent deliberation. In the letter, Lin Tian detailed what he had seen and heard in the south, and he also felt deep pressure on these elders, and the elders attached great importance to Lin Tian's letter, and began to send personnel to contact several monarchies in the north after the meeting.
A total of three monarchies near the north were contacted, namely the Kingdom of Yu near the west, the Kingdom of Cai near the east, and the Kingdom of Phantom Yan sandwiched between them. As a result, the three kingdoms ignored the messengers sent by Beiyi, and it was clear that they didn't look down on you, and they didn't hang you.
Although the Phantom Flame Kingdom has had contact with Beiyi, this time the level is different, in the past, it was the permission of the city lords of Ishihara City and Phantom Phoenix City for this kind of commercial trade, but now this is a diplomatic relationship, and it is an exchange at the national level.
In the eyes of the Three Kingdoms, Beiyi was not worthy of their status at all and was not qualified to establish diplomatic relations with them. Beiyi is just a wild land, even if several tribes are formed, and even if several tribes are united, they are still a tribe after all, and they are scattered sand. In the eyes of several monarchs, Beiyi is even a big family, and the tribe in it is like a branch of this family, after all, it is scattered and cannot be put on the table.
In fact, many of today's countries grew out of extended families, but they chose to forget this history. For example, Cai Guo is based on the Cai family, and its country name is its own surname. And now that others have built the country and successfully ascended to the throne, it is natural for the people below to appear with a high profile.
The Elders would react to this situation to Lin Tian, and Lin Tian probably understood something in his heart. Nowadays, it is a big alliance, and the decree of this big alliance is not forced to be unified. Ministries continue to maintain considerable autonomy.
Lin Tian didn't dare to take power without authorization, for fear of causing a backlash. Even in the upper presbyterian council, there is already a sense of centralization, but it is just that I think so in my heart, and no one dares to say it if I can't say it. No one knows what is in the minds of those in power, and these people in the Presbyterian Church have been separated from the ministries, far from the circles of power in their ministries, and who of them can clearly grasp the thoughts of the new rulers who will succeed to the throne. Even brothers, fathers and sons don't have this full certainty.
The selection of the Council of Elders is very strict, so the members of the first Council of Elders are all concerned about Yidi, and they are based on the interests of the entire Yidi, and of course they all know that the unification of the government decree is more beneficial to Yidi. And the rights are collected, and the status of the presbytery will be raised to a higher level.
Of course, everyone is not stupid, and naturally knows that this matter is not so easy, and no one will easily let go of the power in their hands. If this is easily opened, it may cause a split and return to the situation where all the ministries were in full force at the beginning.
This is not what everyone wants to see, so everyone prefers to remain calm and keep the situation as it is. Lin Tian also knew that this matter was tricky, so he planned to do another thing first. Yidi needs to build its own monetary system, and since Lin Tian returned, he has already started working on this.
From the style to the final sample, Lin Tian participated in the whole process, and not a single detail was missed. Because this is an extraordinary thing, Lin Tian pays great attention to it. The coinage was handed over to the Heavenly Alliance to complete, and the current most complete smelting and manufacturing system in Youyi Land in Fucheng was Lin Tianpu's. After that, the smelting and manufacturing bureau was more detailed, and the previous smelting and manufacturing bureau was also separated, which were the smelting bureau and the manufacturing bureau, which were dedicated to their duties, which saved manpower and improved work efficiency.
When Lin Tian was still in the Heavenly Alliance, there was no such condition, and there were not many professional personnel, so the two were arranged together, and now the separation was also what Lin Tian was willing to see, and Lin Tian spoke highly of this matter.
These two separate departments are still the leaders of the people of the Jin Tian clan, and whoever makes their craftsmanship good has to rely on their ability to speak. The current smelting bureau is in charge of Mo Duoluo, and the person in charge of the manufacturing bureau, Lin Tian was a little surprised, it was actually the girl of the Jintian clan Ah Duo who he saw back then, but now it has been changed to Duo'er. There is also Lin Tian's shadow in this, it was Lin Tian's slip of the tongue that called Ah Duo Duo'er, which gave him this title.
Duo'er saw Lin Tian again after three years, and she was still like a surprise rabbit. Three years ago, Duo'er was thirteen or fourteen years old, and now she is sixteen or seventeen years old. It was completely different from Lin Tian's image when he first saw her, at that time, the Jintian clan lacked food and clothing, and everyone's stomach couldn't be filled, so the little girl's appearance at that time was not Peugeot.
With a skinny figure and a hungry complexion, this was the image that Lin Tian first saw her, and later when he saw Duo'er again after the Heavenly Alliance occupied Fucheng, it was better than before, but it was only better. Now that the little girl is open and has grown up, she is a big girl.
Lin Tian saw Duo'er in the Manufacturing Bureau, when Duo'er was wearing work clothes and a big gown in front of her, Lin Tian couldn't tell that this was the former girl Duo'er without looking at the front. When the other party turned around, Lin Tian saw the youthful face, the childishness had not yet subsided, and the little face of the melon seeds was very cute and moving.
Now Duo'er is a big girl, and seeing Lin Tian is not only happy but also happy, she is not as reckless as she was a few years ago. Now she behaved very steadily, and even called Lin Tian as the sect leader, instead of hurriedly running up and calling him brother or something.
In the manufacturing bureau, there are both men and women, and it is not like in the smelting bureau that it is full of men. The manufacturing bureau also needs to be skillful, and the hands must also be skillful in order to produce good things.
Three days later, the first batch of samples was successfully released, and copper coins, as the basic monetary unit, accounted for the vast majority of the monetary system set by Lin Tian, becoming the main body of the Beiyi monetary system. There are two types of copper coins, one with an opening and one without an opening.
Whether it is a copper coin or a silver or gold coin, it is all based on a circle. The outer circle of the copper coin opening is inside, and there is a piece that can have four big characters, which is the first year of Tongbao. It is not difficult to understand that it is a coin that was created to commemorate the first year of the opening of the currency. The base of the open copper coin is the largest, so it needs to be hung with a rope to be easy to hold, so it is also called hanging money and copper coin, which is to distinguish it from copper coins. With the advent of copper coins and circulation in Beiyi, copper coins have a new name, called copper plates.
In order to let the people of Beiyi understand and adapt to the new monetary system as soon as possible, Lin Tian did not make a more detailed division of copper, silver and gold coins. Each tier of currency is in decimal units, which is progressive, that is, one hundred copper coins are equal to one silver coin, and a thousand copper coins are equal to one gold coin. Lin Tian also spent a lot of effort on the minting of copper, silver and gold coins. Currency is divided into pros and cons, so it is necessary to have not only depictions and decorations, but also symbols.
The symbols are made of the three precious flowers and plants of Yidi, so that the reverse side can be seen, and the front side has not been able to think of what to portray. The font is not well typeset and not beautiful. Neither Lin Tian nor Ah Duo agreed with the typesetting scheme.
In the end, the girl Duo'er proposed to take Lin Tian's avatar as a positive image, and this proposal was approved by many people. But Lin Tian is not worth being happy at all, and he doesn't think it's very honorable, and the avatar can be on the layout, isn't this a curse for me to die? Lin Tian thought so, this was often to commemorate the great people of the past, so Lin Tian felt that this was very unlucky.
However, seeing that everyone was united and enthusiastic, Lin Tian was not easy to pour cold water, so it was settled. Of course, there are no fine instruments in these years, even if the carving master is skilled, after turning the mold again and again, it is difficult to preserve the eleventh detail of Lin Tian's appearance. In fact, Lin Tian was thinking, it would be better not to be like me, so as not to be absent for me, and there was always a feeling of mourning.
The four currencies were fully issued by the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, and for a while, the people of Beiyi were somewhat uncomfortable, but it was something that the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect did, and everyone still supported it to the greatest extent. Over the years, the people of Beiyi have witnessed the role of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect and have also enjoyed the benefits brought by the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect. And this time there is also the head of the sect leader on the currency, which makes the people of Beiyi more acceptable.
For many years, Lin Tian has never shown his face, few people know the true face of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect Master, everyone is curious, what kind of person is the sect leader, is it the same as them? This mystery has now been uncovered in the currency, and it has also shifted some of the contradictions among the people and made it easier for the people to accept the new currency.
