If you are not a graduate of history, you may not know much about the history of money. Fortunately, Lin Jianqiu has been a reporter for so many years and has seen a lot. I remember that after the excavation of the Mawangdui Han Tomb in Hunan, he went to interview, and when he had dinner with the cultural relics experts at that time, he listened to some knowledge.

The expert said at the dinner table that this currency is nothing more than money, gold, silver, turtle, shellfish and cloth. In addition to the four currencies of gold, silver, turtle and shellfish, the two currencies of money and cloth are made of copper or iron.

And the so-called cloth is not the current cloth, but a shovel-shaped copper coin.

I vaguely remember what the expert said, this money is a copper coin with a round square hole. This is the so-called five things, six names, and so on.

In this world, there seem to be many countries in the entire Central Plains Continent, and each country and even each city will have a different currency. But no matter how different the currencies are, they are inseparable from these five. It's nothing more than a conversion problem.

It is only because of the inconsistency of currencies and the large number of small countries that it will lead to chaos in the currency market, and it is common for counterfeit currencies to appear. But since the gold ingot is real, it is fine.

The vast majority of these currencies are used for large-scale circulation among the people, and a small part is also used for internal circulation among officials.

Obviously, since the steward said that it would not be issued to the public, the gold ingots given by the Eight Bowls Woman belonged to the latter and were only used for internal circulation among officials. It's just that this thing circulates internally, what is it used for?

Money is money, so why should it be divided into public circulation and official circulation?

Lin Jianqiu suddenly remembered that when he was invited to participate in an antique auction, he interviewed the boss of the auction, and he introduced an impressive leather coin, which was a special currency used for internal circulation of officials.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the government treasury was empty, and in order to collect the money of officials to fill the treasury, he adopted the opinion of Zhang Tang, a cool official at the time, and made an incredible leather coin.

The so-called leather coin is a white deer skin, and one foot of white deer skin decorated with purple patterns can be used as 400,000 coins, that is, 40 catties of gold. A piece of skin, in exchange for forty catties of gold, is simply a robbery.

There's no way, the treasury is empty in the war, this soup is put into modern times, that is an economist, and it is a very ruthless kind.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used the power of his regime to stipulate that when the princes needed to use jade for ancestor worship and pilgrimage, they must use leather coins as cushions and lined under the jade bi, otherwise it would be disrespectful to Emperor Wu.

A jade bi is sometimes worth only a few thousand dollars, but this leather cushion costs 400,000 yuan...... It's not okay if you don't buy it...... The princes screamed.

Scary or not?!

Nima, this is scary.

It's a robbery! Robbery from the emperor, yes, yes, no, yes.

It seems that the gold ingot engraved with the characteristics of 'Su Zhai Han Golang' given by these eight bowls of women is also estimated to be a currency that circulates internally among officials, so Wang Mazi is not familiar with this situation, but the head snake steward has heard of it.

As for the value, it is unknown. Presumably, it is impossible to have such a high value like this leather coin during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Knowledge is power, this is true, after knowing it in his heart, Lin Jianqiu took the words of the steward, and said sarcastically: "Mother Wang, are you raising the status of the Golden Academy of Fine Arts too high?" I stole a guest's? ”

Wang Mazi was beaten by the steward, and it didn't matter, but the little guy came to bring a knife, and she was just about to reply, Lin Jianqiu laughed.

Hahaha......

laughed so much that Wang Mazi's face was red and white for a while.

"The steward has said that the officials of this flower city do not have something, this is a special gold ingot issued by the Su Mansion only to officials, you are a guest of Jinmanyuan, can you have it? But ......" Lin Jianqiu's words changed, looked at Wang Mazi quite understandingly, and said: "You are a market mother, it's normal to not know." ”

……

Wang Mazi's face was turned into the color of pig liver by Lin Jianqiu.

"Mom in our city, aren't you just a little girl? You ......," Wang Mazi shouted.

"What are you talking about! It's noisy......" The steward frowned and rebuked unceremoniously: "Men talk about things, women talk about anything!" ”

……

Hehe, this world is so good for men...... Lin Jianqiu couldn't help but want to laugh.

Wang Mazi gritted her teeth, blushed, and closed her mouth.

Lin Jianqiu still put his hands behind his back, his waist was straight, his expression was steady and calm, and he had the style of a general. The steward saw it in his eyes, and his face changed slightly.

The person who can get this ingot must either have something extraordinary, or he has made a powerful friend. Whatever the case may be, it is better not to offend. He thought.

The head snake on the ground, even the hair is hollow, and the number of rivers and lakes is very clear. So a smile appeared on the housekeeper's face, and he arched his hand towards Lin Jianqiu: "May I ask your son's surname?" ”

Treat each other politely, and give up your hands to show decency, completely without the arrogance that you love to answer.

"The steward doesn't have to be so polite, so as not to be surnamed Lin." Lin Jianqiu habitually stretched out his hand, originally intending to shake hands, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, and immediately changed it to a hand......

Cough......

Why is it that every time you HOLD the whole game, some small details always have to go wrong? Lin Jianqiu was a little helpless.

"Lin Gongzi ......" The steward squinted, as if he was thinking about something, and suddenly, slapped his thigh: "Isn't it the Lin Gongzi who wrote "The Biography of Jin Manyuan"?!" ”

It seems that this little biography is really known to everyone in the entire Flower City.

"Exactly down there." Lin Jianqiu smiled slightly, although he was quite happy in his heart, his expression was very calm, and the face of the finch on the side was full of admiration, hiding behind him, looking up at the back of his head, he felt that the back of his head was extraordinarily different.

I couldn't help but smile shyly.

Lin Jianqiu's calmness and self-confidence gave Qi'er an unprecedented sense of security, she was not worried about what problems would arise next, anyway, no matter what the problems were, her Lin Gongzi would definitely be able to handle them.

When the steward heard this, he smiled and arched his hand again: "I didn't expect that Mother Wang, you, the hidden dragon and the Crouching Tiger, the little biography actually came from the hands of this talent!" Honored, honored! ”

There are two reasons why the steward is so polite is because of the small rumor, after all, it has been a long time since there has been anything new in Huacheng and it has caused a sensation. And the reason for the eight points is the analysis of this local snake, is it not because of this little biography, what dignitaries and nobles have this little guy made in front of him?

Otherwise, where did he get this gold ingot?

There is only one possibility, that is, the protégé of the powerful who passed by, or someone else from the magnates, found this little biography and felt that this Lin Gongzi was a usable talent and recruited talents.

This is very common, although the area of Huacheng is remote and peaceful, but now the wars between countries occur from time to time, and now, the door is a very good way out for many people with knowledge and social knowledge.

Spending a lot of money to seek talents is often heard.

People who can write short biographies are easy to be appreciated by nobles, and it's really because they have made powerful friends.

"Dare to ask Lin Gongzi, which mansion has taken a fancy to Lin Gongzi's talent?" The steward looked serious, arched his hands, gave enough dignity, and asked.

This wave is stable.

Lin Jianqiu, a veteran in the workplace, has a plan.
