Chapter 162 Plant Currency (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
The Dragon King stayed in Zhongsu County for a few more days, not for anything else, just to see how many talents have come to Zhongsu County now.
Bian Shun got the podium the next day, and announced to the whole county that if anyone wants to go up to give a lecture, they can go up, and also said the meaning of the dragon king, saying that the dragon king likes this kind of collision of ideas, and everyone can speak freely.
Since the Dragon King has said so, and the place is ready, how can those who come to Zhongsu County miss such an opportunity?
Throughout the ages, there must be people who can not seek fame and profit, but there are definitely only a few, and nine out of ten people who are scholars have one idea: learn to become a literary and martial artist, and the goods are with the emperor's family!!
The dragon king is not the emperor, but he is a more powerful god than the emperor, and he sells what he has learned to the dragon king, there is nothing wrong with it at all, these people can come to Zhongsu, originally with such an idea, and now, there is a bigger stage to show themselves, these people are not flocking to it?
Bian Shun made a total of four podiums in the county, and Bian Shun was very treacherous, making these four podiums diagonal, and everyone standing on the podium would definitely be able to see each other.
After the podium was repaired, people kept coming up to talk about their thoughts and ambitions, and at the same time, they belittled each other.
Among these people, most of them are Legalists and Confucians, Confucianism is now flourishing, so Confucianism has the largest number of scholars, and Legalism is the largest group besides Confucianism.
The scene is very hot, especially when spraying, Legalism sprays Confucianism is a group of sour Confucianism, Confucianism sprays Legalism is a group of cool officials, sprayed to the back, the dragon king even saw the children of Confucianism and Legalism fighting each other, and they were fists to the flesh, and their noses were blue and their faces were swollen.
Fight and fight, but the dragon king thinks that this is actually very good, with topicality, the speed of communication will be faster, like the few scholars who beat each other, in just one day, they became famous in Zhongsu County, as if they had become the spokesperson of Legalism and Confucianism.
However, the dragon king also saw that these scholars who rushed out in a hurry actually had very limited knowledge, and it was just a few words over and over again, if this group of people were allowed to become officials, it was estimated that it was really enough, they belonged to the kind of kings with strong mouths, oh no, the king's words still looked up to them, it should be a strong mouth...
Then, the Dragon King discovered a problem that urgently needed to be solved, this problem actually existed for a long time, but in this Zhongsu County, it is particularly serious.
The problem is a monetary one.
Because the dragon king didn't look down on the five baht money of the Han Dynasty, he didn't want to circulate the five baht money under his rule from the beginning, and when he was in the two counties, he could still trade through barter, but now, with the more people under the rule of the dragon king, the larger the territory, the currency problem has become an urgent problem to be solved.
Especially in Zhongsu County, because of the Dragon King's recruitment list, the children of various families have come one after another, these people are not only themselves, but also the entourage of family servants and other people, these people have to eat, drink and Lazar, they can't come with a lot of goods, they can only use money in exchange for the resources they need, but it is a little embarrassing that the people of Zhongsu County basically do not charge five baht, even if these people have money, they are useless, they can't buy things.
Therefore, this situation must be solved as soon as possible, and the introduction of its own monetary system will not only facilitate transactions between ordinary people, but also promote business development.
After telling Bian Shun about this, Bian Shun thought so: "That's true, the Dragon King doesn't like five baht money, and it is imperative to launch our own currency." ”
The Dragon King nodded: "Okay, then when I think about it, I will get the monetary system out as soon as possible." ”
..........
The importance of the monetary system is undeniable. Therefore, for currency, the Dragon King will definitely attach great importance to it.
Now the dragon king is considering what kind of currency should be issued under his rule, whether it should be made of iron, or whether it should be paper as the main currency in circulation, as in modern times, or some precious metals such as silver, gold, copper, etc.
But this involves a premise, the technology of making money.
The technology of currency is too important to be imitated by others as soon as it is made, so the core technology must be firmly in your own hands, so that others can imitate it.
With the level of the craftsmen of Nanhai County, whether it is iron coins, paper money or precious metals, there is obviously no such unique technology, so the Dragon King thought about it for a while, and gave up directly, and he had to do it himself.
Then the dragon king had an idea: can we use plant currency? Like what... Elm Money Tree.
The fruit of the elm tree is a bit similar to a bunch of small money, so people call it the elm money tree, if you try to transform the elm money tree to make its fruit more unique, can it be used as a kind of currency to circulate?
The dragon king thinks that it is feasible, because the currency itself actually has no value, its value is only given by people, just like a sentence that modern people like to say: money, paper, aside from the value it is given, modern paper money is paper.
Now that Nanhai County is under his rule, he has given a thing that has the meaning of currency, then this thing is currency!!
"If that's the case, Yuqian has to be transformed like this, first of all, Yuqian must be strong, durable, wear-resistant, and can't be left for a few days to break, so get some iron in it? Not only is it sturdy and durable, but it also feels solid in your hand. ”
"Secondly, the specifications and models must be different, there must be big money and small money, the small is the point, the medium is the corner, the big is the yuan, not only the specifications and models are different, but there must be numbers on it, the kind that can be seen at a glance."
"Again, there must be some unique patterns and patterns on the currency, so that it is not easy to be imitated, the lines must be fine, the pattern must have symbolic meaning, and there must be a dragon pattern on the front? Reverse with a planet or something? ”
In the end, if it is a tree, it must be planted somewhere, and it must be prevented from being stolen, and then the dragon king also thought of it, it just so happens that he is preparing to get the war ancient tree out, and in the future, he can let the war ancient tree guard the elm money tree, and the dragon king's creations are all under the orders of the dragon king, and the plant guards work hard, and they don't have to rest much, which is very efficient.
After summarizing in this way, the dragon king found that this plan was feasible, and it felt quite simple.
Such a monetary system does not need any technology, relying on the ability to create, it can be said to be unique, fine lines and patterns dare not say that they can eliminate imitation, but it also increases the cost of imitation, in addition, the dragon king is now only ready to issue a small amount of face value, try to run for a period of time, check and fill in the gaps, find problems and solve problems, maybe in the future will also make out the second generation of plants.
So, the dragon king decided to do so, and now, he will issue this plant currency first.
