The longer the time drags on, the less profit will be, and as a successful businessman, money naturally understands this truth deeply.

Second, it shows that Ding Youcai came in a group this time, and he alone exchanged 10 million silver coins.

That's five million copper coins!

The money guess is not wrong, Ding Youcai's generosity shocked Cai Dao. The unicorn silver coins he prepared in advance this time were only five million.

Ding Youcai shipped five million copper coins at once, forcing Cai Dao to announce the limit, and to this day, he still owes Ding Youcai, a wealthy man, nine million unicorn silver coins.

However, when the spring flowers bloom and the rivers thaw, Cai Dao now has enough silver ore and silver in his hands, so he only needs to suspend the minting of Tianyou Tongbao and use the hydraulic power to mint Qilin silver coins.

Based on the estimated daily minting rate, the lack of silver coins will be made up for by the end of March.

With the leading role of the first merchant in the north, the enthusiasm of the people to exchange unicorn silver coins has been greatly enhanced.

Many families who don't have enough money really have to pool their money to exchange for Kirin silver coins, and then several families go shopping in groups to the Royal Department Store.

Every day, there is a constant stream of people who go to the Royal Department Store to shop, and people don't have to worry about buying out of what they have there.

The Royal Department Store, which claims to have department stores to buy, has been counted by those who are nosy, and there are indeed hundreds of goods in it, and the specific number of goods has exceeded a hundred.

Why not get a supermarket?

Aren't many of those who traveled back to ancient times opened supermarkets?

Anyway, Cai Dao had also considered this before, but after some argumentation, he knew that something like a supermarket that spanned the times would not succeed at all if it was taken out now.

First of all, the technical conditions do not allow.

Secondly, don't overestimate the quality of the Chinese people, especially the Chinese people after the Tang Dynasty.

In any time and space, there will be scum everywhere, and there are many idlers in Bianliang City who love to make trouble. Anyway, in Cai Dao's view, opening a supermarket has no benefits except for leading people to commit crimes. Unlike department stores, it is convenient and fast to pay for money with one hand and deliver with the other.

Anyway, the people of Bianliang City and Luoyang Mansion had never seen that kind of goods out of stock in the Royal Department Store.

In addition to chai, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, the best men's ready-to-wear made of cotton cloth is sold in the Royal Department Store, which is inexpensive, durable, and fashionable.

Sure enough, the number of places exchanged for tens of millions in March did not take the turn of money, in April, in May,...... It wasn't until the end of the year that the slot finally came to money.

Don't blame Cai Dao for his dark box operation, Cai Dao didn't want to provoke any of the families who had exchanged Qilin silver coins in the past few months.

The clan, Empress Dowager Meng's family, of course, except for Empress Dowager Meng's own sister, at the beginning, when Empress Dowager Meng was deposed, Zhao Xu was extraordinarily gracious if she didn't kill her.

The three family members of the Empress Dowager, these three families did not have so much money, but they took out the rewards of the Empress Dowager Zhu and the former Emperor Zhao Xu, so Cai Dao could not give them an exchange.

At the end of the year, it was Cai Dao's turn to give him face.

The peak of private exchange was after the autumn harvest, although Cai Dao was exempted from agricultural taxes, but industrialists and businessmen learned to pay taxes. This year was another bumper harvest year, and the surplus grain in their hands was sold to the government, and the farmers got this kind of unicorn silver coin and Tianyou Tongbao.

If a peasant privately sells his grain to someone outside the government, although he will not confiscate the money and grain from the transaction, both the buyer and the seller will be heavily taxed by the three divisions and yamen.

The peasants had money in their hands, and their families had three years of grain reserves, and those who did not have a daughter-in-law began to find matchmakers to talk to matchmakers, and if the houses were not good, they had to find craftsmen to build new brick houses,...... Always, the peasants are afraid that the value of the unicorn silver coins in their hands will be depreciated, and everything that can be spent will be spent.

When it comes to paying taxes, businessmen have discovered another trick to save money.

Originally, when the household department was collecting taxes, if the tax payer needed to pay ten cents, he only needed to pay twenty unicorn silver coins, which had essentially been reduced from the tax of ten cents.

Of course, this does not mean much to most workers, because not all craftsmen are required to pay a tax of 500 wen per month. But for businessmen, it is a great boon.

For businessmen who must compare baht, they will try their best to save a penny. The opportunity is in front of them, and they will naturally not let it go.

In this way, Cai Dao recovered a large number of copper coins within a year and issued tens of millions of unicorn silver coins. On the contrary, the amount of grain recovered this year is 30 percent more than in previous years, because the peasants have already saved enough grain for three years, and if they go any further, they can only put insects in the warehouses of a few houses.

After the autumn harvest, Cai Dao really fulfilled his promise not to levy any agricultural taxes on the entire northern part of the Great Song Dynasty, except for the Huainan Road.

As a result, the people in the south who were still hesitant before also saw that they had crossed the Yangtze River with their families and poured into the northern land.

Not only them, but even many Han people in the Western Xia Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom secretly crossed the border and came to the Song Dynasty after receiving this exact news.

In this regard, the Western Xia Kingdom and the Great Liao Kingdom took two completely different ways to deal with this matter.

On the one hand, Li Qianshun sent an envoy to Bianliang City to personally complain to the Empress Dowager Meng and the little emperor about the incident, and on the other hand, he sent a large army to block the border outside the city and block the passage for the people to flee. In order not to cause misunderstanding, Li Qianshun also sent someone to inform Cai Dao of this incident.

Today, Li Qiande, the lord of the Western Xia Kingdom, is so respectful, Cai Dao also has to sell him a face, and the people who ran to the Song realm before must not be pursued by both sides. And Cai Dao will also send someone to write to inform Zhang Qi of this matter, and ask him to send troops to block Hengshan Fortress.

And the attitude of Yelu Yanxi, the lord of the Great Liao State, was tough and anxious, he called the war report his nephew in his letter, and the envoy he sent questioned Cai Dao, asking him to immediately give an order to the governors and county officials of the two roads, and all the Liao people who fled their homes and entered the Song realm were too late. Otherwise, Da Liao did not hesitate to start a war to settle this dispute.

However, this time, Cai Dao didn't pay attention to it after seeing the other party's arrogant and domineering attitude again.

Let's not talk about whether the current Liao State has the ability to launch this war, but Cai Dao knows that the time has come to attack the Great Liao State and take the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun.
