Chapter 215: A Thousand Daughters Are Born
Whether it is toothbrushes, toothpaste, or facial cleansers and creams, if you want to produce and sell, you need assembly line workers who are proficient in mechanical management, and the reason why Liu Huayun has been delaying for so long;
Not only did he have expectations for his children, but the craftsmen of the Shenji Camp had not been able to get the machinery he needed right, such as flowers and mint because of the season...... The lack of supply of various raw materials also accounts for a large part of the reason.
"Wan'er, have you given birth to Sister Ruoping?"
Xu is Lin'er in the womb, knowing his parents' ardent expectations for him, it was night, Liu Ruoping suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain, and several midwives who had been on standby in the Horse Mansion for a long time hurriedly began to get busy;
Liu Ruoping's room was brightly lit, and more than an hour had passed, but there was still no cry of a child, and Liu Huayun, who was anxious, couldn't help but ask Dong Xiaowan in the house through the door.
"Xianggong, don't worry, Mrs. Wen said that Sister Ruoping had a smooth birth, and it was okay...... Hey, it's out, wow~~~"
Before Dong Xiaowan in the room finished speaking, Liu Huayun heard a crisp and loud cry, and immediately, his hanging heart was also relaxed.
"Congratulations to the prince, he is a daughter."
A moment later, the door opened, and several stable women came out to congratulate them.
"Hello daughter, hello daughter, come, let me see."
In Liu Huayun's thoughts, there is no prejudice against male and female babies, not to mention that together with the empress He Jin, he still has seven wives who have not given birth, and no matter how bad it is, there will be a few men in the Liu family.
While talking, he came to Liu Ruoping, who had changed into a brand new bedding, and hugged the little girl in swaddling clothes.
"Xianggong, you can name the child."
Liu Ruoping was born as a little demon girl in the Black Demon League, and her health was very good, seeing that Liu Huayun liked children so much, she sat up and looked at him with a smile under Dong Xiaowan's support.
"Yes, this is the first child in our family, and she is still a beautiful little princess, so she must have a nice name."
Liu Ruoxi, Zhao Lingxin, and Meng Yushi who walked in...... The other women also spoke.
"The little baby is very cute, why don't you call her Xiaotong."
Maybe it's because of the nature of father and daughter, the little guy who just gave birth didn't cry in his arms, under the light, Liu Huayun looked at his daughter's blinking bright eyes, and said her name with a smile.
"Liu Xiaotong, good name, come, let my aunt see ......"
"If it's a pity, let me hug ..... too"
Liu Xiaotong, the eldest daughter of the Liu family, suddenly became the pearl of everyone's palms because of the first birth, and it was not until a few days later that Lei Tingting gave birth to Lin'er Liu Xin, which made the attention of the girls shift slightly.
"Tongtong, Xin'er, dad is going to do something, you have to be good."
kissed his daughter Liu Xiaotong and son Liu Xin's pink little faces, and Liu Huayun reluctantly left the Horse Mansion.
His baby daughter and son are all safe and sound, He Jin and Duan Yaoying will need at least three or four months to give birth, and Liu Huayun can finally focus on the construction of power plants, toothbrushes, toothpaste factories, and the improvement of guns and cannons.
In addition, the promotion of land reform pilots also needs to be put on the agenda; However, if you want to return the private land to the imperial court and redistribute it to the people, you need a lot of financial support;
Moreover, in order to maintain the food and grass salaries of the army totaling more than 700,000 in various places, and to build guns and steel ships, Liu Huayun once again felt the helplessness of the empty treasury and the overstretched.
"Brother Ji, Brother Han, set up a bank in the name of the imperial court and replace silver with paper money...... Do you think it's possible? ”
On this day, after discussing with He Jin, he found Ji Xiaolan and Han Zhong and discussed with them the idea of opening a bank and issuing paper money.
Of course, it is easy to abolish gold and silver and replace them with paper money, but it is not so simple to make it acceptable to everyone in the world;
Therefore, Liu Huayun's initial idea was that silver tickets and banknotes could be used together, for example, if a penny is a dime, then a tael of silver is 1500 yuan.
Converted to the market, a piece of paper money can buy two catties of rice or one catty of pork, or one and a half catties of coal......
In this case, you only need to print one dime, five corners, one piece, five pieces, ten pieces, twenty, fifty, one hundred, five hundred, one thousand
These ten denominations of currency will do.
As long as the imperial court vigorously promoted it, copper plates would no longer be made in the future, and the saved copper could be used to make many bullets for guns and powerful cannonballs.
Without copper plates, after the banknotes are circulated in the market, the common people can slowly accept them, and the same merchants will not be an exception;
And Liu Huayun also has a killer feature, that is, there is a precedent that has never been seen in previous dynasties, and spare money can be deposited in the bank to earn interest.
Even if there is only one percent of interest at the beginning, in the years when the silver savings bank needs to pay money, it can also attract the attention of countless people.
When all the gold and silver of the people were returned to the state, he could abolish the silver stamps and use only Dafeng paper money; At that time, even if the currency is a little inflated by printing more, Liu Huayun thinks it will be worth it for the sake of developing as soon as possible.
"Lord, I have no opinion on this matter, as long as the banknotes can be ...... not to be imitated, and then promote it according to what you said, I think the people should be happy to accept it."
After listening to Liu Huayun's words, Han Zhong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was the first to agree.
However, as he said, the advantage of paper money over copper and silver is that it is light to carry, and the disadvantage is that as long as it is imitated, it will cause chaos in the whole world.
"Don't worry, Lord Han, since I proposed to print banknotes, I have absolute confidence to prevent others from counterfeiting ......"
The production of banknote printing paper, together with machinery, and then the inkjet of blending, except for the skilled craftsmen who followed Liu Huayun's magic machine, in the whole world in recent decades, there will be no second company that can meet one condition;
Therefore, he can pat his chest and say that after the development of society in the future, even if someone can imitate it, he will be led by more than 270 IQ, and new anti-counterfeiting methods will come into being.
"Well~~~, I don't have an opinion, what to do, Huayun is ...... even if you tell me"
Electric lights, firearms, shampoo, these things are all from his handwriting, Liu Huayun is a miracle in Dafeng itself, after Han Zhong finished speaking, Ji Xiaolan, who trusted him incomparably, also expressed his attitude.
"Brother Song, look, the one surnamed Liu...... Ah no, it's the prince Chitose and the saint who are going to open a bank......"
On the shore of Xizi Lake, where the spring breeze is gentle and the green willows are dancing lightly, the talented man surnamed Zhou is holding a newspaper, and the two people who are on the embankment of the lake with strange colors and chanting poems and enjoying the scenery said.
"Where? Let me see...... No, in the bank of the imperial court, not only can it be exchanged for the so-called Dafeng treasure banknotes, but there is also interest. ”
The scholar surnamed Song was in a good mood today, and he wanted to sing another song because of his poetry, but when he saw the content of the newspaper, his eyes widened in surprise.
