In the imperial study, Pang Yukun presented the printed set of currencies in front of Xiao Ming.

After deciding to issue currency, Xiao Ming asked the government to make every effort to prepare and allocate resources, and with his personal supervision, the first minting workshop in the Great Chongqing Kingdom was successfully established, and a set of currencies in the Great Chongqing Kingdom was produced within a month.

This included the paper money he requested, as well as three metal currencies, which were made of gold, silver, and copper.

Whether it is paper money or gold, silver and copper currency, they are collectively referred to as the dragon coins of the Great Yu Kingdom, the gold coins in the dragon coins are called the golden dragon, weighing 1,5 grams, minted from pure gold, the silver coins are called silver dragons, the weight is also 1.5 grams, the value is one-tenth of the gold coin, and the copper coin is one-tenth of the silver coin.

In this way, the three metal currencies of gold, silver and copper are the main circulating currencies in the market, while the paper money is relatively large in denomination and is mainly used for large-scale commercial trade.

In this era, the people's recognition of metal money is far greater than that of paper money, and the people will not be willing to exchange the gold and silver in their hands to the bank in exchange for paper money because of the lack of trust.

Therefore, Xiao Ming's current production is large-value banknotes, which are mainly circulated for trade, and the reason why he does this is also to prevent counterfeit banknotes from impacting the private economy.

When paper money is used for large-scale trade, merchants will go to the bank and ask the bank to verify the authenticity of the banknote before using it, cutting off the circulation of counterfeit money.

After all, although he used many anti-counterfeiting technologies in the process of manufacturing banknotes, it is difficult to guarantee that Western countries will not print counterfeit banknotes to harm the finance of the Great Chongqing Kingdom.

Historically, Napoleon copied a large number of paper money from Tsarist Russia, and in the process of attacking Russia, a large number of counterfeit money were used to buy Russian goods, which caused chaos in the domestic economy of Tsarist Russia, so that citizens bought gold one after another.

At the same time, Napoleon also printed British pounds, Austrian coins, and Prussian coins, which for a time flooded Europe with counterfeit money.

Thinking of this history, Xiao Ming thinks that it is better to be cautious, now that the Western colonizers are full of malice towards the Great Chongqing State, and they have always wanted to reverse the trade deficit, he can't give them this opportunity.

"That's a hundred gold dragon coins, right?" Xiao Ming looked at the banknote, which was golden yellow as a whole, and was mimeographed by ochre, a mineral pigment.

In the center of the banknote is a portrait of an emperor with a crown, which is similar to Xiao Ming.

The north side of the banknote is a steam locomotive traveling on the rails, the word 100 in the middle, these patterns are carefully carved by craftsmen, among which there is a small square in the lower left corner of Xiao Ming's head, which is printed with the production date and number of this banknote, and the most important thing is that this small square uses the technology of micro carving, which once again increases the difficulty of imitation.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this is currently the largest denomination currency of the Great Chongqing Kingdom." Pang Yukun said with a smile, in fact, one golden dragon is enough for the people of Dayu to live for a month.

After all, according to the previous silver conversion, the salary of a female worker in the textile mill is now a golden dragon, which is twelve golden dragons a year, and the salary of female workers is very high in Qingzhou.

"After the issuance of banknotes, we must set up banknote inspectors in each bank, and the issued currency also needs to be printed with the seal of Qingzhou Bank to prevent the appearance of counterfeit money." Xiao Ming's expression was serious.

Any policy is a step-by-step approach, and one bite will not make a big fat man, and this discovery of currency is also a preliminary attempt at financial reform for him.

Putting down the banknotes, Xiao Ming picked up the gold dragon, silver dragon and copper coins, in the current Britain, the weight of a gold coin is about equal to about seven grams of gold, and the reason why he uses one and a half grams is because the current gold reserves are too small.

The new currency was issued in the hope that the gold and silver of the people would be collected, so that there would be no shortage of materials.

Like the banknotes, the avatar on the gold coin is also Xiao Ming, while the silver coin is different from the copper coin, where the silver coin is printed with a naval warship, while the copper coin is printed with a mature ear of wheat.

According to modern rules, this coin should be printed with the head of the founding emperor, but Xiao Ming has been re-establishing a different country since the Chang'an Rebellion, so he does not blush at all when he uses his own head.

The most important thing is to print your own avatar on the money, which will also make the user more kind to him, who will have trouble with money?

After checking all the currencies, Xiao Ming said: "Let Qingzhou Bank issue it to the outside world, and you can go to the newspaper office to find Fan Zeng and ask him to cooperate with you in publishing this new currency." ”

After a pause, he continued: "In addition, the construction progress of this Qingzhou Bank should be accelerated, and at least one bank should be ensured in each state. ”

"Lao Chen is already taking over Caojia Qianzhuang, and it is estimated that in less than two months, Caojia Qianzhuang in all states and counties will be able to transform themselves and become Qingzhou Bank." Pang Yukun said his current achievements.

Xiao Ming has always trusted Pang Yukun very much, and he said: "In this way, I will be relieved."

The two discussed the matter of currency, and Pang Yukun continued; "Your Majesty, according to the minister, the three Ge Yiren and Kong Huairen, the head of the Qufu Kong family, have returned to Qingzhou, and the minister thinks that the emperor should also hold the Taishan Zen Ceremony, so that the emperor will be the leader of Confucianism and can lead the Confucian reform."

Xiao Ming nodded, he also got the news, it is said that as soon as Ge Yiren arrived in Qufu, he said that Kong Huairen, the head of the Kong family, had moved Kong Huairen, the head of the Kong family, and after staying in Qufu for a while, Kong Huairen took more than 300 disciples and three people to Qingzhou, and now they are waiting for his reception.

Xiao Ming was happy to see this matter come to fruition, and the Kong family recognized the situation at this time and saved him a lot of effort.

"At this time, when I see Kong Huairen, I have a lot of things to explain to him." Xiao Ming muttered that in order to reform Confucianism, he personally wrote a set of key points that needed to be reformed, and waited for Kong Huairen to promote it for himself.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Pang Yukun answered, and only turned around and left after confirming that Xiao Ming had nothing else to do.

After Xiao Ming was left alone in the imperial study, he picked up the new currency of the Great Chongqing State again, and in the blink of an eye, the reform of the Great Chongqing State has been carried out for two years, and under the deliberate support of the government office, various workshops have been established in various parts of the Great Chongqing State, and the official and private offices jointly support the current industry of the Great Chongqing State.

And because of the prosperity of industry, merchants had more goods to resell, so that a steady stream of silver flowed into the country of Chongqing, and it was in this context that the currency was issued.

It's just that the current industrial capacity is not enough for him, he needs more workshops, but then he needs to have more markets to support the industry and sell more types of goods at the same time.

Thinking of this, he was a little eager to get more Goryeo-like areas.

While he was thinking, Li San arrived outside the imperial study at this time.
