"It seems that the problem is not small, we didn't expect such a change, so that we didn't prepare in advance, but fortunately, it's still too late, although we are not prepared, the court is not much better, the court and Jiannu this time to make peace, is secretly doing it from the world, so there will be no adequate preparation in advance, for those proud soldiers and generals of the court outside the gate, if the emperor Lao'er does not give them enough salary, salary and rations, It is estimated that these eaters will not easily move south!

And the emperor Lao'er is counting on a salary every day, and now Huguang has been lost to us again, and there is a large piece of land that can be used to raise money and military rations, unless he is willing to take out the internal silver, otherwise, in a short period of time, it is not easy for the imperial court to raise enough soldiers to mobilize these border troops, so if my prediction is right, I am afraid that the large-scale operation of the official army will not be carried out in a short time, and we still have time to prepare!

I immediately sent someone to inform Li Jinde, and asked him to quickly mobilize and raise food in Huguang, and then transport it over, and raise as much food as possible.

As for the number of self-generated firearms, there is no better way to do it now, less is less! But you have to inform the master craftsmen of the craftsman camp that in addition to building them manually, they should build more drilling machines, and at the same time they must find ways to use machinery, and the location of the craftsman camp should be next to rivers and streams as much as possible, and make full use of water power to replace labor, if I am not very busy, I can personally help them with this kind of thing, but for now let them think of more ways!

In short, your logistics department has done a very good job under your leadership, which can tell your subordinates, saying that I am very satisfied, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it is unlikely that they will go home for rest on vacation, but it is still possible to give each of them a reward of ten taels of silver! Xiao Tianjian said while arranging, and finally rewarded the personnel of the logistics department, which made Luo Bin immediately overjoyed, and quickly got up to salute and thank him.

Xiao Tianjian was rare to be able to spend at home in Chinese New Year's Eve, for several years, at this time, he was mostly leading soldiers to fight outside, only this time because of the sudden change, he had to rush back to Luoyang from Huguang, so that he could have the opportunity to get together with his family in such a family reunion day.

For such a situation, Fan Yutong and the others were very happy, and even secretly grateful to the court for what they did this time, if it wasn't for the court doing this, they didn't know when they would be able to see Xiao Tianjian! So they sat next to Xiao Tianjian, smiling and constantly pouring wine and vegetables for Xiao Tianjian, for fear that Xiao Tianjian would not eat well.

And Xiao Tianjian also did not refuse, making them happy as much as possible, and from time to time to tease Xiao Xueru, who was staring at him curiously with big eyes, this kind of life made Xiao Tianjian feel like heaven.

But he also knew in his heart that at this time, there were still many people in the criminal army who had no chance to sit with their families and eat a warm Chinese New Year's Eve meal like him, and many soldiers were estimated to be rushing from all over the country at this time, marching towards Henan, and this New Year was not destined to be a New Year where he could rest, and too many things were still waiting for him to do.

"By the way, what's going on with the issue of the Heavenly Coins?" Xiao Tianjian asked Fan Yutong while eating.

Fan Yutong poured Xiao Tianjian a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Look at me!" When you came back this time, our sisters were so happy that they forgot to tell you about it!

At present, silver coins and copper coins have been minted a lot, last year I showed you a sample money, the style is in accordance with your instructions, using the shape of imitation Eagle Yang production, but also invited a few red craftsmen to help manufacture, now it is possible! I'm going to fetch some money for you!" If you're satisfied, you can start mass production right away, and you'll be ready for use within two months at the earliest! ”

After saying that, Fan Yutong quickly stood up, instructed the maid to get a box, put it in front of Xiao Tianjian, Xiao Tianjian then opened it to watch, there are several coins of various colors in the box, both silver coins and copper coins, large and small, the largest silver coin should be one or two, the front of the silver coin is a dragon pattern, the carving is very exquisite, and the back is a three-dimensional character written in Yang, there are four small characters of the Chinese dragon coin below, and the edge is convex and concave, and the bright crystal is very beautiful.

The obverse pattern of other silver coins and copper coins is the same, but the numbers marked on the surface are different, showing the value they represent, and the production is very exquisite, compared to the sample money he saw at the beginning of the year, it is much more exquisite, this is not important, the most important thing is that Xiao Tianjian can see at a glance from these newly made coins that these coins are no longer made using the traditional Chinese casting method, it is clear that a forging machine has been used, and it is forged with a mold, so that it shows that in the past year, In the matter of minting money, Fan Yutong thought of a lot of ways, and also drew a lot of opinions from his suggestions, changed the way of minting money, hired skilled craftsmen, and even recruited foreign craftsmen, according to the sketch of the forging machine he made, helped them build a forging machine, and first applied it to the manufacture of coins.

And this kind of forged coins, there is a very big advantage, that is, it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to imitate and counterfeit, unless they get out of the forging machine, otherwise, with the minted money, the blind can distinguish the authenticity at a glance, so it will reduce or avoid the impact of counterfeit coins on the real coin.

Fan Yutong also told Xiao Tianjian that this kind of silver coin is not pure silver, but an alloy silver coin of seven cents silver and three points of tin, so that the Xingtianjun can obtain three cents of money and profits by issuing silver coins. It is very popular with the Ming people and is the hard currency circulating in the market, which is also the reason why Xiao Tianjian wants to issue coins.

Since he wants to establish a country, then he will not sit back and watch the currency chaos of the Ming Dynasty continue, in the jurisdiction of the Xingtian Army, in the future, he will use the coins issued by the Xingtian Army, and gradually eliminate the scattered silver and those old-style copper coins, and finally form a unified currency, which is a very important thing for a country, and the country holds the right to issue currency, which is also the most basic thing.

After looking at these kinds of money, Xiao Tianjian nodded and said: "Very good, better than I thought, these coins are all forged with a forging machine, so if anyone wants to imitate it, they will be blind!" These flanges are also very good, and some people in the province make ideas on silver coins and cut off the edges for profit! Hehe! You're doing better than I thought! It's time for a good reward! Hehe!

However, it is not a simple matter to issue coins, first of all, we must first build the ticket number of our Xingtian Army in the major state capitals in our jurisdiction, I think about it, what is it called? Well! Let's call it Bank of China! In the future, after the coins are issued, the holder can go to the bank to exchange them for silver, or you can use the silver to go to the bank to exchange them for the coins issued by us, and the most basic thing is to ensure the credit of these money!

These coins alone are not enough, we still have to issue paper money, use paper money instead of silver money, first make a deal with the merchants, use paper money to buy their things, and then they take the paper money to the bank, you can exchange it for silver coins of the same value on paper! As long as the credit is guaranteed, businessmen will be more willing to carry paper money in the future, after all, paper money is much more convenient to carry! In this regard, Da Ming did not do a good job, and we must do a good job!

Of course, when issuing banknotes, it is necessary to prevent counterfeiting, the selected paper should be specially manufactured, the paper used for this banknote is not only wear-resistant and durable, but also can not be found on the market, from the source of the paper to control, it is necessary to add anti-counterfeiting measures, until the printing of the stereotype, must be carefully made, the banknote thing you also start to do next! Now we have a paper factory, select craftsmen to develop this kind of paper, and find carvers to carve engraving plates, printing, and call it Chinese dragon coins! In the future, we will establish a silver standard monetary system, and gradually collect and store all the silver circulating in the market, so that paper money will become the main currency in circulation!

……”

Xiao Tianjian began to talk about some things about the currency issuance of later generations that he knew at the dinner table, after a meal, Fan Yutong and Die'er were fascinated, Die'er even quickly sent someone to get a pen and paper, Xiao Tianjian said, she quickly wrote it down, for fear that she would forget it in the future, now Die'er can write and calculate, although her ability is not as good as Fan Yutong, but there is no problem in acting as a secret for Fan Yutong, and she has also helped Fan Yutong do a lot of things during this time, even Fan Ling'er will help Fan Yutong from time to time, It can be said that they are all Xiao Tianjian's virtuous helpers.

Xiao Tianjian said this, and he talked until midnight, extending far from the monetary system, saying a lot about his ideas about governing the country, and even talked about the world monetary policy that may be established in the future, many of which were borrowed from later generations, and Fan Yutong nodded again and again, which made several of them worship Xiao Tianjian beyond words.

Looking at Fan Yutong and their faces full of admiration, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help but sweat a little, he can be said to be a common sense thing that he saw in later life, but now it has become his original, and as a result, he has stunned a few lovers, which makes him quite enjoy the feeling of being worshipped, and he can't help but be even more interested.

With the development of the Xingtian Army, many functions have begun to be gradually divided, and gradually improved, at least in terms of finance, it has gradually become independent of the general civil affairs, because of Fan Yutong's ability, and now the financial power of the Xingtian Army is basically in charge of Fan Yutong, and she has also recruited a lot of talents during this time, including that Jin Fuzi Jin Tong, Now he is also working under Fan Yutong, supporting the façade of the temporary household department, and most of these people are people who are familiar with financial affairs.

In fact, Fan Yutong is already the chief official of the household department of the Xingtian Army, but at the moment Xiao Tianjian has not formally established the household department, and she is in charge for the time being. And to be honest, this housewife has done a good job in this regard, taking care of a lot of cumbersome things in an orderly manner, and even many scribes feel ashamed, so they also acquiesced in this matter.

Xiao Tianjian doesn't care about being called cronyism, at this time to talk about the so-called democracy, that's nonsense, when he fights the world, what he needs is to establish an absolutely powerful rule, everyone must obey him, move forward in the direction he indicated, no one can jump out and oppose his decision, because no one knows the development process of history better than him, if you think about the balance of monarchs and ministers at this time, it is self-deprecating, at least before there is peace in the world, he will not consider this matter, He wants to control all the resources he can control as much as possible in his own hands, only in this way can he fight the world with peace of mind, even if he is scolded as a tyrant and a faint king, he will not hesitate.

And after a long night of talking, Fan Yutong's idea of establishing Xingtianjun's own monetary system became much clearer, and she immediately got up as soon as it was dawn, and plunged into her work, and even took Die'er to be dragged away, leaving only Fan Ling'er to stay at home to take care of Xiao Xueru, so she didn't catch Zhuangding.

Xiao Tianjian is not in a hurry for this kind of thing, he knows the truth that if you want to hurry, you can't reach the truth, before the launch of such a monetary policy, the more fully prepared, the easier it will be to implement, and the less likely it is to make mistakes, so watching Fan Yutong rush to get busy, he is very relieved.
