Chapter 1292: Haoshang is too bad

"Is it possible to ban a tael of silver and bank bills?"

"Bank bills can be banned, how can one or two silver be banned? People come with real money, can they not accept it? If you don't accept real money, what else do you buy? ”

"You can't ban a tael of silver, and there will still be ...... of profiteers issuing private friends linked to one or two pieces of silver in the commercial markets on the southeast coast."

"Then ban personal friends!"

"How can that work? After the ban on private relations, the practice of copper coin cellaring became even worse. Copper coins are buried in the ground, and there will be a lack of money circulating in the market. ”

"Why don't we mint silver coins too......"

"But do we have that much silver?"

"There should be, right? No matter how much silver is less than Wu Haogu's! ”

"That's right, we must have more silver than Zhou Guo, and silver coins should be issued!"

"That's right! The Great Song Dynasty is rich in resources, and there must be more gold and silver treasures than in the Zhou Kingdom! ”

The government hall has become an assembly hall today, and there are not only ten governors in the east and west provinces, but also the chief officials of the household department and the Taifu Temple, and even the petty officials in charge of the introduction, treasury, commercial taxes, and trade.

They are all expressing their opinions and making bad ideas for Cai Jing and Taishi Cai. Cai Jing frowned - why are most of these officials from Jinshi so confused?

After discussing and discussing, they actually came up with an idea to issue silver coins.

That's right, the Great Song Dynasty must have more silver than the Zhou Kingdom. However, the population, land and trade wealth of the Great Song Dynasty were also more than those of the Zhou State!

Zhou has one or two million silver coins that are enough to deal with, how much does the Great Song Dynasty want? 100 million isn't enough, right?

Moreover, Zhou Guo had only one center, that is, Tianjin City, and after taking several large banks in Tianjin, he controlled Zhou Guo's banking industry.

Therefore, it was easy for the Zhou State to collect most of the silver collars among the Zhou people through large and medium-sized banks such as the Bank of Tianjin, Xiangguosi Bank, Yanjing Bank, Liaodong Bank, Korea Bank, and Annam Bank, and mint them into silver coins that were convenient for circulation.

The Great Song Dynasty has a number of centers, one on the Kaifeng side, one in Jingdong Commercial City, Haizhou, and Xuzhou, and one in "Suzhou-Hangzhou Embroidered Mingyue" plus Shanghai and Mingzhou Commercial City, and Quanzhou and Guangzhou together can also be regarded as a center.

There are a total of five economic centers in a country. Except for one Kaifeng Mansion under the nose of the imperial court, the other four centers are a little difficult to control!

In addition, these four industrially developed central areas are all "export-oriented" and belong to the important nodes of the Maritime Silk Road.

Tianjin, the capital of the Zhou Kingdom, was the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road, and Xingzhou, which held the Sriwijaya Strait in the South Seas, was the transit point of the Maritime Silk Road. These six regions are all located on the Maritime Silk Road, and their economic exchanges with each other are very close, and capital, goods, and people can flow almost freely.

In other words, the relationship between the southeast coast of the Great Song Dynasty and Tianjin is much closer than the relationship with Kaifeng Prefecture.

If the Song court wanted to tighten control and collect gold and silver in the four industrial and commercial centers in the southeast, it was likely that the funds there would flow to Tianjin and Xingzhou......

This is not the worst, the worst situation is that all the profiteers in those areas have defected to the Zhou State and are the forerunners of the republic!

After all, on the side of the Great Zhou Republic, the ** merchants can become citizens, and the business city can also be autonomous. Profiteers no longer have to worry about being knocked out by corrupt officials.

……

Cai Jing picked up the tea cup, took a sip of the fragrant tea brewed with the dragon and phoenix tea cakes from Fujian, coughed again, and cleared his throat.

Hearing his old man's cough, the officials in the room quickly shut up, and all looked at Cai Jing, waiting for his old man to speak.

Cai Jing said slowly: "According to the old man, Qian Yin still has to be guaranteed. Only by guaranteeing money can you resist silver coins. ”

The method of "keeping money to resist silver coins" was, of course, taught by Ji Kui to Cai Jing.

"Money Introduction" has brought unimaginable profits to JD Bank! Wouldn't it be a pity to lose such a good sheep shearing tool after using it once?

So Ji Kui didn't plan to turn the money into waste paper, but wanted to keep it and play slowly.

As for the issuance of silver coins against the "one tael of silver" and "one penny of silver" of the Zhou State...... Jingdong Bank can send it by itself, why let the imperial court eat this piece of meat? Besides, the imperial court didn't have much silver reserves. If you really want to issue silver coins, you must find banks and wealthy merchants in the southeast to ask for silver.

Finally, Qian Yin is the cash cow of JD Bank, and it is also the lifeblood of many small and medium-sized financial institutions.

If it really becomes waste paper, I don't know how many people will go bankrupt, and it will not be good for JD Bank.

Cai Jing paused and asked, "How much has the money in the market in Kaifeng Mansion fallen today?" ”

"Back to Taishi," the official of the Taifu Temple also arrived at the political hall, heard Cai Jing's question, and hurriedly replied, "It has fallen to 400 Wen......

Cai Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and thought: That Ji Kui is quite reputable, and he really took it out of Qiantuo City.

The price of 400 Wen was a price that Cai Jing coaxed and deceived last night, forcing Ji Kui to agree to stick to it.

This price has dropped by almost half compared to the original 770 Wen! In Cai Jing's view, the over-issued money is just useless paper, and it is not worth 400 Wen anyway......

Ji Kui is a businessman after all, and he can't stand the intimidation and coercion of being a court master!

If it is replaced by Ji Yi, he will not take the money to the city no matter what...... Even if the lawsuit goes to the official's house, Ji Yi is justified.

This matter is obviously a bad rule that money is only sent and not collected...... Cai Jing himself is the culprit! If it can't be settled, the top spot in the political hall will have to be replaced! Maybe Ji Yi will go up by himself!

Fortunately, Ji Yi was driven to Jiaozhi, and a Ji Kui couldn't fight himself!

Thinking of this, Cai Jing nodded and said, "The main reason why Qian Yin is unstable is that he has not prepared enough. Salt, iron, tea, and rice alone are not enough to support money. Once the money is centralized for exchange, it will cause a shortage of materials.

For now, the only way to do this is to let the money lead to the copper coin! The face value of a penny is introduced, and the imperial court can buy it back with 400 wen. ”

"400 Wen repurchased?" He Zhizhong, the right minister, asked, "Will it lose money?" ”

"The court sent out 770 texts, and 400 texts were repurchased, how could it lose money?"

Cai Jing smiled and said, "Besides, if there is no 400 Wen repurchase, what should Qian Yin do?" How does it end? Now there are 10,000 denominations in circulation, if they are all used to buy tea, salt, rice and iron, how long will this 10,000,000 tassels last? How many young people in the imperial court can't profit from tea, salt, rice and iron? ”

"If you buy back at half price, you will have to pay 50 million." Taifu Siqing Xu said, "Take out 50 million at once, I'm just afraid of ......"

Cai Jing smiled: "Who said that you want to take out 50 million?" The 400 Wen repurchase is just a position of the imperial court...... The copper money needed for the repurchase has to be paid by the big banks such as Jingdong Bank, Daxiangguosi Bank, and Pan Ji Bank. ”

"Will they?"

Cai Jing smiled coldly and looked around at the officials present: "There is no willingness, only dare!" If you have no objections, we will discuss and play, and ask the official to approve it. ”

Although after the rise of the Zhou State, the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty were a little cocked, but in Kaifeng Mansion, they were still fat pigs under the knife of the imperial court.

It's really forcing the court to be anxious, what about slaughtering a few?

……

"Will you make a will?"

"Yes! How could it not? The court flowers are used comfortably, what a good thing it is to let us profiteers wipe our butts? Will the officials not allow it? ”

"But the price of 400 Wen is set high?"

"High? Hehe...... We have a lot of money in our hands! If we fall hard, what good will it do us? ”

"What? JD Bank still has a lot of money on hand? ”

"Who doesn't? Aren't the many debts we let out also money-inducing? If it really falls into waste paper, isn't it too cheap to be in debt? Now collect 400 Wen first, and when the collection is almost done, then raise it to more than 500 Wen!

It is enough for money to fall by one-third at a time, and if it falls more, no one will believe it. Without money, it won't be so easy for us to make money. ”

"That's right, it's still Ji Xingshou's clever means!"

"Hahaha...... Now 400 Wen is in, and in the future it will be raised to more than 500 Wen, one in and one out, which is a lot of money! ”

Wanshengmen Inner Street, in a clean room on the third floor of the Jingdong Bank Building. Ji Kui was discussing behind closed doors with several leading figures of the money industry guild how to manipulate the market.

The profiteers now have banks, and their strength is magnified! No matter how treacherous Cai Jing is, when it comes to playing finance, he still can't compare to a profiteer like Ji Kui who has opened a bank.

Ji Kui glanced at everyone in the room, and there was one less person...... Wu Haogu's agent in Kaifeng Mansion, Mu Gongyang, did not come!

This Mu Gongyang left during the New Year's Festival, and also took away all the funds obtained by the sale of Kaifeng Mansion properties by martial arts firms such as Republic Bank, Wanjiaxing, and Christie's, totaling more than 1 million taels of gold.

Ji Kui took a breath and lowered his voice: "Don't be too happy!" It's easy for the imperial court to deal with it, but it's not easy to deal with it in Tianjin...... This time the money plummeted, which gave them the opportunity to promote silver coins and bank bills. ”

"Didn't the imperial court issue an edict banning bank bills?"

Ji Kui smiled when he heard this: "Can you hold it?" Bank bills are the money that everyone loves in the world! The officials sent to ban bank bills were afraid that they liked it very much. ”

"So what are we going to do? If the bank bills are circulated in the Southeast Commercial Market, we will lose several large pieces of fat. ”

"Hehe," Ji Kui smiled, "They issue bank bills, let's meet the money...... It is purchased with copper coins and issued in the southeast commercial market, and it is sung against bank bills and one or two silver and one penny of silver. ”

"But will the court pursue it?"

"Pursue?" Ji Kui smiled, "The imperial court, that is, Taishi Cai, knows a little, and when he steps down, who cares about seeing money and bank bills?" ”

"Step down? Master Cai will ......"

"How not?" Ji Kui lowered his voice, "Don't think that this money is so easy to end the turmoil. ”

"How?"

Ji Kui said: "770 Wen has fallen to 400 Wen, I don't know how many small and medium-sized quality warehouses, solution libraries, longevity libraries, gold and silver silk silk shops have lost all their capital!"

Kaifeng Prefecture and the Southeast Commercial City, several states rich in silk and salt and iron are not afraid of running out of money. But what about the three hundred and dozens of states in the world? I'm afraid that there will be a shortage of money. ”
