Chapter 357: Printing Money with a Face
After receiving the king's inscription, the "Liuqiu Xunbao" was very pleasantly surprised, and several thin scholars who were originally depressed in the Great Song Dynasty and just wanted to fight to the death screamed!
Hahaha!
Iron shoulders bear morality, and articles are written with wonderful hands!
Folk Imperial History!
Hahaha!
Generous advertisement expense!
We did it!!
The scholar who took the lead waved his thin arm and shouted:
"Colleagues! The king gave us the title of 'Imperial History of the People', which is clearly for us to write about the misdeeds of officials!
From now on, our newspapers will regularly appear on the King's desk!
This is a great creation......"
As a result, the newspaper became a newspaper that focused on reporting on the work and life of officials at all levels...... They reported it right, there is nothing to say about this; They reported the mistake and immediately clarified it in the newspaper and paid for the cost of moral damage.
They thoroughly pondered the "Press and Publication Law" of the empire, and for a time many officials were helpless against them.
The Minister of Customs and Trade, Kwok Tsz-yan, has managed to get out of the shadow of the newspaper scandal and is on the right track for his life and work.
In a fit of rage, he replaced all his secretaries with men...... It turns out that even if she is an ugly woman, she will always treat herself as a dish!
He needs good performance to reduce his pressure...... It just so happened that the import and export tonnage he received on the morning of this day reached the highest in history, and if you add the import and export tonnage in the afternoon, it is possible to break the best historical record!
The throughput will reach 30,000 tons in one day!
According to this estimate, it will exceed 10 million tons a year, and this is only the number of Badaohe customs, plus the other nine cities on the island, this number will be doubled!
If you add Shandong, the Philippine Islands, Batavia, Australia and Nankai...... Add in the South Indian region and the Liberty Islands, and that number is staggering!
Zhang Anguo's family will be very happy when they see it......
At six o'clock in the afternoon, his male secretary received a report, and after a glance at it, he hurriedly sent it to him.
After Guo Ziren received the report, he used his ivory abacus to recalculate the numbers...... Perhaps because he had smoked too much Bliss before, he was thankful that the speed of the plan plate was much slower, but he still insisted on finishing the calculation.
But he was still not at ease, and asked his male secretary to do the calculations again until the numbers still did not change.
Well, the import and export tonnage of Badaohe Port reached 30,680 tons a day, and it is expected to become the first port in the world to exceed 10 million tons in history within a year, surpassing Thornton City, Guangzhou City and Alexandria!
He immediately asked his male secretary to write out the basic information, and then immediately asked the reporter of the "Liuqiu Times" to write the report overnight, and strive to appear at the dinner table of the main family tomorrow morning.
The average family on the island has a habit of reading one or more newspapers for breakfast...... Every morning, there are thousands and hundreds of courier boys on the streets who ride bicycles to deliver newspapers from door to door, which has become a unique scenery in Badaohedi.
It is said that such a scene began to appear in the Xinbianjing City of the Great Song Dynasty.
He asked the male secretary to give the reporter more money...... This expense goes to the account of office entertainment.
After the arrangements were made, he rode directly back home in his national carriage.
He had to start having dinner with a large family...... In the past, the life of spending days and drinking outside with Gu Jian Mountain seemed to be in a previous life.
Guo Ziren looked at the laughter of a large family with no taste...... For them, the daily dinner is a festival.
Slowly, Guo Ziren was infected by them, and he also began to laugh, hugging the child for a while, and hugging the child for a while...... It's still quite interesting.
They discussed it, and after a while, they went to the shopping street, and heard that a lot of new clothing and household goods were introduced.
After dinner, the whole family went to business and started the family shopping action.
On the commercial street, they even met a big family from Gujian Mountain!
The relationship between the two families is very good, and the spectacular scene of women greeting each other can be imagined.
Guo Ziren and Gu Jianshan were slowly squeezed out of the center of the conversation and became bystanders.
The two of them watched as the women exchanged shopping information quickly, and the children watched each other happy and crazy...... Both of them were a little sparse.
Is it better in the past, or is it better now?
I really don't know.
Guo Ziren said: "My data there is very good, and it has exceeded 30,000 tons today...... What about yours? ”
Gu Jianshan's eight-character eyebrows unfolded, and he said, "It's extremely beautiful!" This year, you can print 400 million yuan of banknotes!! ”
Guo Ziren's eyes are round, my God, it was only 200 million last year, and it will become 400 million this year?!
"Old Gu, do you want to turn our money into a big Song banknote?
Did you really start a steam-powered money printing press?? ”
Gu Jianshan smiled and said, "No, no! 400 million is the minimum requirement...... The kerosene shipped back from Bahrain and Borneo, the cotton shipped back from Australia and Tianzhu, and the precious metals brought back from the Nankai and Nanyindian regions forced us to print more money...... If 400 million banknotes are no longer printed, there will be a shortage of monetary liquidity in the financial markets of our federal empire...... Instead, let Da Song take advantage of it. ”
"Then tell me about it, do we hedge the value of paper money or gold and silver?!"
"Rest assured, the reprinted Imperial banknotes will still be able to buy the previous amount of gold and silver...... But ah......"
Gu Jianshan looked around, and no one eavesdropped on their conversation.
"I have a big Song banknote in my hand, hurry up and throw it out...... We're going to keep them down...... They even started to print ......"
"Okay, I really have some Da Song money in my hand."
The banknotes of the Great Song Dynasty were originally circulated together with the banknotes of the Federal Empire, and this was true within the territory of the Great Song Dynasty and the Federal Empire, and even in the Kingdom of Korea and Japan.
At the beginning, the two banknotes were calculated according to the face value of one to one, and slowly, starting from the people, it became one to one to two, one to one to three, until it became one to one to five!
This is really not a Federated Empire secretly manipulating the exchange rate...... The common people of the Great Song Dynasty really knew that they could directly exchange the paper money of the Federal Empire for beautiful silver and gold coins, and they could buy the three necessities of life at a low price: kerosene, grain, and cotton cloth.
Others such as meat and its large livestock or leather goods, perfumes and spices, iron and steel goods, etc., are needless to say.
Guo Ziren asked in a low voice, "How much are you going to press down?" ”
"The money bank is ready to depreciate them once and only accept a one-to-two exchange ratio!"
Liuqiu Money Bank is different from New Oriental Money Bank and Yin Di'an Money Bank, it belongs to the central money bank of the Federal Empire, as long as it changes something, other money banks will naturally change with it.
"So much?!"
"It's the market's choice...... How much money we have produced and how much precious metals we have produced to print more money, they all rely on a face to print, and if we don't let them depreciate, we will lose a lot of money. ”
"Didn't we admit defeat before?"
"It used to be before, when we couldn't live without them, now, hehe, I'm not afraid."
