Chapter 347: Money is a Great Invention

The three major mining areas paid Inca laborers and later Mayan laborers a certain amount of paper money to the Federal Empire according to their labor...... Let them be free to buy goods and spend as much as they want.

This method easily made them understand the role of the Federal Empire's banknotes.

In the beginning, with the powerful transportation capacity of the Federal Empire, more than a dozen seven-masted special transport ships could be transported in a year, which was enough for them to spend paper money to consume and use goods.

It can be said that it is the Indian group of companies that supports the production and consumption system of the entire West Coast...... Forcibly brought the Incas directly from a primitive slave society with no currency to a free commercial society.

Of course, now it is only at the simplest level of "labor payment - paper money return - consumer goods".

We can't underestimate this level of relationship...... It's better than using the method of recording work points and waiting until the end of the year to settle the payment with grain, right?!

The peasants under the Tatar robbers were even more miserable, and they handed in all of them, and then they were given only a little ration that would not starve you.

The Inca laborers began to understand the purpose of the banknote, and they either exaggerated the purchasing power of the banknote and bought all the goods in the shop when they took out one...... Or take out the many bills you get every month just to buy a pack of hard candy!

Of course, after a period of time, they finally learned that everyone could "discuss" and began to understand the role of the Federal Empire's banknotes...... I even quickly learned to recognize the face value of banknotes!

Their attitude towards money is simply the sum of the attitudes that people all over the world have towards money!

Some don't care, and the banknotes issued every month are spent in a few days...... Anyway, three meals are still served in the mining area or factory, and living in a dormitory is not worrying about living at all.

If you want to spend it again, you can borrow it from his friends and co-workers.

Some of them calculated the cost, and they wanted to use it to build themselves a house like the messenger of the sun god, and to add some necessary things to themselves little by little.

You can't spend it all at once!

Those banknotes can be hidden in a safe place...... It can also be placed in the Yin Di'an money store, where there is no deposit fee...... People there will let themselves pick the patterns of six animals and have to memorize them, which will later be used as a password to withdraw money...... In this way, even if others get the passbook, they will not know the password and will never be able to take it out.

Others know that they can use it to lend it to others, and when they start work and repay the money next month, they can get a little more interest.

In this way, the phenomenon of stealing money slowly happened, and there was also a fight between the original friends over borrowing and repaying the money...... When a man wants to have something with a woman, the woman asks the man for money so that she can buy what she likes.

It can be seen that money is one of the greatest human inventions, but whether it does good or bad depends only on the person who uses it.

Money is dirty, it's something that bleeds all over it...... How stupid are those who say this!

Later, after the comprehensive development of the three mining areas, the transportation capacity of Yindianan Group Company could not keep up.

And the Inca laborers had more and more banknotes in their hands...... So the price of goods began to rise.

There were clever Inca laborers who didn't buy alcohol or smoke in their spare time, and they were trying to earn some paper money from other people...... For example, when I went to the jungle and found a large bunch of bananas that were just ripe, I carried them back, and they were at the door of the shop, and they could be sold to those who wanted to eat them at a face value of fifty yuan; You can also jump into the river to spot some river fish and pick some pretty wildflowers...... The messengers of the sun god sometimes pay for it.

Thus was established a money society...... There are more and more people squatting next to the shops to sell things, and from the eyes of the Incas and Mayans, you don't need to wait for the nobles to allocate to you, you can basically exchange it.

Some quarrels over money can be handled by the patrol police, but the convenience brought by money is felt by everyone.

Labor produces money, and money facilitates life...... In just a few years, the Incas largely embraced the relationship.

The idea of giving all the fruits of one's labor and then waiting for the aristocracy to distribute it was quickly shattered.

In fact, King Sapa of the Inca Kingdom embraced the concept of money exchange early on, and he was certainly influenced by Emperor Zongxiong.

He exchanged the harvest and personnel of the Mayan kingdom for the messengers of the sun god, and he obtained several four-wheeled carriages of paper money, which he used to pay for the exchange of weapons, and as a result, there were many paper money left.

At the suggestion of Emperor Zong Xiong, he rewarded those who had made meritorious deeds, and then gave some compensation to the families of the dead warriors, warning those nobles not to share.

As a result, he found that more people genuinely thanked him, calling him the best king ever, and they were willing to fight for the Inca Empire!

The position of the Inca kings was strengthened, especially in the hearts of those who had served in the army.

Banknotes of the Federal Empire also began to circulate within the Inca Kingdom...... The people of Cusco also recognize its importance.

Therefore, Director Zhang Hongfan thinks that those businessmen are going to get rich...... At this time, the convoy of the Indien Group of Companies had not yet arrived, many commodities had not been replenished, and the Inca and Mayan laborers had more and more banknotes in their hands.

Both Korean and Japanese merchants had complete trust in the banknotes of the Federal Empire...... Use it to buy in-demand supplies in places controlled by the Federal Empire!

Director Zhang Hongfan actually wanted to encourage them to settle in thick silver...... The merchants politely refused.

Rough silver is not as convenient as the banknotes of the Federal Empire!

Because using them on the main island of Liuqiu will be discounted by the money bank......

Well, even businessmen from second-class countries are shrewd.

Those guys' goods are selling well in the silver mines!

Within three days, all the cargo on the four five-masted ships was sold out, and there was not even a single pot or needle left!

Goryeo merchants and Japanese merchants counted piles of paper money from the Federal Empire, and their eyes were glazed.

Director Zhang Hongfan came to visit them in person.

The merchants sent stacks of banknotes...... It means to thank Director Zhang for taking care of him.

Director Zhang Hongfan pushed away disdainfully, snorting, could he come to them for money?!

Director Zhang Hongfan said: "That's right, right? You've made a fortune......"

The merchants nodded their heads, saying that they would immediately help transport goods back to the three major mines, and then bring more merchant ships.

Director Zhang Hongfan held a world chart and said a long word to the businessmen in a seductive tone.

The general meaning is, as you know, the copper mining area and the Buyi estuary area are the best places to grow cotton, and your spinning and weaving equipment is backward in your country, and the quality of the cotton cloth produced is poor...... But if you bring them here with your workers...... Processing and production of cotton yarn and cotton cloth nearby...... Think about it, what the profit is.

The manpower and material resources required to reclaim the cotton field are larger, but the cotton field does not cost money!

If you plant it for three years, it's your own, and you don't pay taxes for five years, think about how much you'll earn!

It only takes seven or eight months to sail at sea, so what can it cost?!

Director Zhang Hongfan compared and drew on the world charts, and the eyes of those businessmen were round, right...... This is the right way.

There was a merchant who drew a line directly between the Buyi estuary area and the Free Island of Europe, which meant that not only could it be sold here, but also to the European region.

Director Zhang Hongfan smiled and said, "Yes, we have explored a transoceanic route, which can be provided to you at any time." ”

How did those merchants know to come here?

Someone clearly provided the route...... So it's not too much to give them one more.

With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Director Zhang Hongfan watched them argue again.

PS: Thank you for the book friend who has always been a joke for the reward.
