Chapter 889: Dinghai Qianzhuang

Yiwang Song did not violate Zhao Xin's order, such a thing, even if it has no practical value, it is not bad to collect it, it is good to treat it as a pawn ticket, it is still so exquisite, easy to carry a pawn ticket.

During this time in the Daimyo's Mansion, in addition to working hard in the blacksmith workshop, at the request of Zhao Xin, Wang Song was still accumulating talents in all aspects.

The daimyo is now the financial capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, not only the trade exchanges are very prosperous, even there are many gold and silver shops, and some of the New Year's coins sent to the Liao State are actually purchased from the daimyo, and they themselves have countless money houses.

The previous dealer conference stimulated the money village of the Daimyo's mansion, yes, the 120 million yuan that came at once, even if most of them were not sold, but simply these came over, so that the money village got a lot of business, and the business was quite vigorous.

Under this premise, the blacksmith workshop and the Dinghai Navy began to enter the field of vision of many people.

Although it is said that feudal society cares more about personal morality, such a thing as breach of contract rarely appears in important positions, and sometimes, verbal agreements are also quite mandatory.

Especially in places like Qianzhuang, the conventional industry rules are destined to be very stable in these places.

However, if you communicate with the owner, it will be different.

Who is Dinghai Hou, some of the owners of super money banks know, and there are some owners with huge power behind them, even if they are some small money houses, they don't know what Dinghai represents, a military festival envoy, the founding marquis, plus such a huge plate in the blacksmith workshop, at least, will not offend him.

Zhao Xin asked for not an experienced shopkeeper who held the lifeblood of the entire money bank in one hand, the bank and the money bank have completely different business methods, relatively speaking, white paper is easier to write.

Although, at the beginning, he could only open a local bank in the Daimyo Mansion, and even in the name of the money bank, Zhao Xin was reluctant to get a few unconvincing shopkeepers, which was not a good choice.

In this way, under the communication and requirements, hundreds of money houses spread throughout the Daimyo's Mansion more or less supported a group of personnel, mostly young people under the age of 20, these are the reserve forces cultivated by the money banks, and even among the reserve forces, they are not very good, but they just meet Zhao Xin's needs.

Understand a little bit of gold and silver exchange, the operation of the money bank, for calculation, there is also a certain foundation, literacy, these, if Zhao Xin all started from scratch, it may take a long time, but now, everything has been solved by these.

Zhao Xin's money village is different from ordinary money bank, ordinary money bank, maybe at the front desk, only a few people, a shopkeeper and a number of stewards and associates, at most a dozen people.

However, Zhao Xin's money bank, with at least 50 people, needs to have many channels to help the people exchange transactions faster, and change the attitude of the money village to a service-oriented.

Fortunately, in these money villages, there are a lot of people who have been supported, almost 1,500 of them, and these people are enough to open 30 money houses, and the Daimyo Mansion will take the prefecture as the core, covering the surrounding densely populated areas, and will arrange half, about 10 counties around the Daimyo Mansion, according to the size, one or two more than one, so that the millions of people around the Daimyo Mansion can be covered.

The opening of the money village is very simple, directly put the blacksmith workshop, and now the balance is millions of yuan, directly rushed into the money village, as a reserve, the blacksmith workshop with deep pockets has this confidence.

When wages, raw material exchanges, and purchases and many other things are incorporated into the bank, Dinghai money bank immediately gets busy.

For a terrible industrial body with such a large flow of funds, the output value of which may exceed 30 million guan a year, a money village is indispensable, in the daimyo's mansion, among the hundreds of money banks, not to mention the tens of millions level, there are only a handful of millions of banks, most of the money banks, most of them are hundreds of thousands, and even tens of thousands of runs.

In the Water Margin, it is told that during the Huizong period, at that time, the money had depreciated quite a lot, and the relatively constant gold could be exchanged for 32 guan, which was almost three times the depreciation, and the daimyo stayed behind to give the Taishi Cai Jing Shengchengang, but it was only 100,000 guan, which shows that in the era of Renzong, tens of thousands of guan were terrible.

Millions of yuan, and at the same time, there was a large amount of business injection, and suddenly, the money bank became the star of the daimyo's mansion, and some people who originally had business in other money houses also came over to ask if they could borrow money.

In the future, banks will collect savings and issue loans, which is the core business, and in the future, this business will also be carried out here, but it has not been carried out for the time being.

Because what is more important is the issuance of this fine iron coin.

100,000 pieces, but 10,000 pieces, such a circulation is too small, Zhao Xin in these 5 days, in addition to the necessary, almost day and night production, an average of 1.5 million a day, almost 7.5 million, worth 750,000 yuan.

It sounds like a lot, but in fact, the current blacksmith workshop has a total of nearly 70,000 laborers, which is only a month's salary according to the average salary of 10 yuan per person.

Zhao Xin's purpose is this, first of all, in the blacksmith workshop with strong control, first implement this fine iron coin, in order to give him enough backing, the fine iron coin does not sound good, and it is called Dinghai coin.

With 750,000 yuan, 700,000 yuan is paid to wages, and the remaining 50,000 yuan flows into the market.

And all the money banks scattered throughout the Daimyo Mansion are also ready, at least 1.5 million copper coins, which have already been prepared, waiting for the climax of the exchange to begin.

In later generations, the issuance of any currency will have a huge impact, and the hairstyle of the euro represents the starting point of European integration, and even opened long before European integration, and European banks have made quite a lot of adjustments.

In this era, the sensitivity to finance is not so strong, and even if there is a change of dynasty, or even a change of year, currency will be issued, and for the previous batch, it is also accommodated, not recycled.

In this way, relying on natural elimination, slowly replace the previous copper coins with new ones.

No one realizes that with the advent of this era of change, precious metal currency is gradually replaced by credit money, which is much slower than paper money like Jiaozi, but in fact, it is very stable.

The fine iron itself has enough value, take a divine weapon as an example, the final big knife is only about 32 catties, 3200 guan, and the price per catty is as high as 100 guan, which is far higher than the value of this fine iron coin.

If in terms of performance, the performance of this fine iron coin in all aspects can completely destroy those divine weapons, which will also have a value base.

In fact, when the propaganda began, especially when it was mentioned that it was harder than everything in the blacksmith's workshop, it was a novelty for people who had been working all day and had come into contact with modern smelting in the blacksmith's workshop.

Divine weapons may have a strong attraction to outsiders, and for blacksmiths who really understand and go deep, the entire blacksmith workshop can be made with the help of ordinary iron, at least 1,000 of them.

The price of 3,200 guan is nothing more than the price of scarcity and expensive, and once it enters the market, it quickly depreciates.

However, compared to the fact that the weapon is more durable, this value is difficult to say, at least, no one can create it at present.

The hardness is 5.9, which is already the highest hardness of manual smelting, and above 6, in addition to the formula of its own steel, it also needs crystallization, quenching, and even adding other materials.

Stainless steel, that is, chromium is added, even if Niu Dali, who personally made stainless steel, he knows the price of most of these things, but he doesn't know the price of chromium added.

In fact, the price of any kind of metal, especially uncommon metals, is very high, such as aluminum, when it first appeared, Napoleon even ordered a batch of aluminum tableware, and the price at that time was dozens of times more expensive than gold.

Chromium is the same, if it is not to have a card system, Zhao Xin has no way to smelt qualified chromium, so simply add a little bit, if it is not the embodiment of the card system, the price may be dozens of times higher than gold.

Not to mention the coins themselves, 10 coins, at least 200 yuan, maybe Zhao Xin is a little generous, but to find these carving masters to carve, the salary is at least more than 5 yuan, which naturally restricts the price of this product and allows them to maintain their value.

The same is true for the money of later generations, the best way is to control the secret recipe by the state, a relatively simple, and at the same time consume a small secret recipe, and others, under the premise of imitation, consume much more effort than this secret recipe, which is to eliminate the cost in all aspects.

Wang Song was the first to come into contact with this Dinghai coin, and it was Xue Yu and Sun Ji and others, Niu Dali was among the blacksmith workshops, the first batch of contact, he just made the raw materials, and never saw the finished product, at a glance, he liked it, and couldn't put it down.

Rumors of Dinghai coins began to spread in the blacksmith's workshop, a coin that was harder than all iron materials, fine iron, and no iron or knife could leave traces on it, and the extremely exquisite coin carved would be paid a few days later, when wages were paid, which immediately caused a sensation.

Some people are worried that this money can't be spent, this, Zhao Xin has already prepared, in the blacksmith workshop, due to the large number of personnel, and the salary level is particularly high, Dinghai Money Village has 4 opened here, and it is also announced in front of the door, as long as it is Dinghai coin, during the day, anytime, anywhere, you can exchange copper coins, or other silver or gold.

In this way, these boiling discussions gradually faded, and the credibility of the blacksmith's workshop was leveraged, and those who joined newly, or not long after joining, only understood when they got the first month's salary, saying that they were giving you 10 yuan, that is, they were giving you 10 yuan, and they were saying that they were giving you 200 yuan, and that was it, not a big discount.

The opening of the auction and the order fair, with more than 10 million transactions, also made it clear to them that the blacksmith workshop had money, and it was impossible to pit them for such a small amount of money.

But after it boiled, I was curious about what this Dinghai coin looked like, and it was so evil.
