2658 is half-understood
The border between Tocharian and the areas under the de facto control of the Qin State.
"No, no, we can't ask for banknotes, that's the rule here." Tocharian merchant Li Luo waved his hand and said.
"Oh. This is, what kind of rule is this, these banknotes can be circulated in the Qin State, and you can go to the bank to buy a large amount of gold, this is no problem. Qin merchant Meng Yan said. He is a native of Qin, there is a large farm in the Western Regions, because he feels bored, he feels that he should do something, so he learns to do business here than people, his business is just some daily necessities, if you want to be big, the best business is still the arms business, because the demand for arms is very large.
"These banknotes, with you, are useful, but we are here to do business with the Sabbatians in the west, and they don't recognize this thing, they only recognize this." As he spoke, the Tocharian merchant Li Luo took out a gold coin.
"Gold?" Meng Yan asked.
"Yes, it's gold coins, you Qin people only need gold coins, and it is very convenient for gold coins to circulate, and it is also convenient for settlement, you Qin people only accept gold coins, and the price of gold coins is constantly rising. Paper money, we are not at ease, and your Qinguo Bank cannot exchange it, so we don't want paper money, you still put it away, if you want to buy our local products here, you can only use gold coins. Li Luo explained.
"Oh. Got it. Meng Yan nodded. Put it away, but it's a pity that he only carries paper money, and there are no gold coins at all. It was the first time for Meng Yan to come here to do business, and he didn't have such gold coins at all, but fortunately, the merchants of the Qin State had helped him and opened his eyes.
The Qin State exported a large number of various commodities to the Tocharians, the Yueshi, the Tocharians, and the Yueshi people continued to gather the goods in their hands and sell them to the Sabbatarians, but the prices obtained by the Sabbatarians were very expensive, which was the main reason why they started wars. With the annexation of the Great Wan Kingdom by the Sabbatarians. The Anshu people had direct contact with the Qin State, but due to the heavy snowfall, it was still the main cargo transit point, but the Yues and Tocharians restrained themselves a little this time. They no longer push prices so high that it is difficult for the Sabbatarians to accept.
On the one hand, the factor of resting people is that on the other hand, it is mainly because there are more and more merchants in the Qin State, and more and more goods are transported, and the prices are naturally cheaper, and the Tocharians and Yueshi people are naturally willing to provide them with some price concessions.
The Qin State continued to transport its own industrial products, glass mirrors, muskets, ammunition, clothes, shoes and socks, canned food, and steel. All the merchants of the Qin State who could sell them were sold. And the Yueshi and Tocharians both have the attitude of receiving those who come. Anyway, these things can be sold in the hands of the Sabbatarians.
"You Qin people sell all goods, and the income comes from gold coins, and these gold coins, which are getting fewer and fewer, have been exchanged for paper money, and the price of this gold coin will only become more and more expensive. You should do some business like this. Li Luo suggested.
"Hmm. Thank you. Meng Yi thanked him. Qin's exports of goods were exchanged for a large amount of gold, which caused the price of Qin's gold to fall a lot, but the profits were still considerable.
The gold of the Anxib people is also being continuously exported, but the paper money of the Qin State cannot expand its influence, because the Bank of Qin has not entered the region, and the influence of the paper money is very smiling. Banknotes can only be circulated in the Western Regions of the Qin State, but cannot be circulated in the Western Regions outside the Western Regions of the Qin State.
Qin State, Xianyang.
"In the Western Regions, the influence of the banknotes of my Qin State is very small. This is because paper money cannot be exchanged for gold coins. It can only be circulated within the territory of the Qin State. In this way, the trade influence of our Qin State is still very limited. A bank president of the Royal House Bank explained to Shang Wen. He is very proficient in banking business, because he was transferred to Guanzhong from near the Bank of the Western Regions of the Qin State, so he has rich experience in the Western Regions of the Qin State and the currency issues of the Western Regions.
"At present, in the Western Regions, a large number of gold coins have flowed into our Qin State through trade, and these gold have caused the gold price of our Qin State to continue to fall, and the credibility of paper money is getting higher and higher. On the contrary, countries have less and less purchasing power because of the continuous outflow of gold. A large amount of gold has actually flowed into our Qin State, because of the special paper money relationship of my Qin State, which has caused their gold to circulate less and less. The president continued.
Shang Wen and Meng Yi nodded. It means that the other party is right.
"The huge trade surplus devalued our gold and raised the banknotes of our Qin state. However, paper money could only remain in circulation in the western regions of the Qin State, and unless the countries found large, brand-new currency, they could not change such a situation at all. The governor said.
"Unless we can replace those metal currencies with paper money, the countries of the Western Regions will be in a state of deflation for a long time, and in such a state, it will not be conducive to our trade." The governor said.
"Hmm. I think I get it. Shang Wen said.
"Maybe it's because we're in so good trade. As a result, the gold of the countries in the Western Regions continued to flow into our Qin State, but our Qin State banknotes could not flow out, because the influence of our Qin State was still insufficient. In such a situation, countries need a large amount of paper money to meet the demand for trade. Shang Wen said.
"Yes, my solution is to expand the influence of Qin's paper money, for example, at the beginning, you can issue Qin's own metal currency, and then buy a resource that Qin specifically needs, and then, a large number of gold coins enter the market, and we are too high in the price of gold coins. Because at this time, the price of gold coins will continue to rise. Our banks, as well as the state, have a large amount of gold coins in their hands, which can buy quite a lot of resources, and when they are about to develop them, the price of gold coins will rise. The price of resources has fallen. At last. They lost a lot, and we won the last gain. In the end, we won. The president suggested to Shang Wen.
"But we don't know a lot about the resources of each country." Shang Wen said.
"Moreover, this needs to be probed, and it is not something that can be detected all at once." Shang Wen said.
"Hmm. However, I don't think it will take long to solve the problem. Because a lot of times, our merchants are already doing it. The president said to Shang Wen.
"All we have to do is encourage them to do it, and that's it." The president waved his arm and gestured to Shang Wen. He felt that the prime minister should understand what he meant. After all, business is pretty simple. Shang Wen nodded. But Shang Wen is half-understood.
