112, banknotes and white paper open the markets of neighboring countries
"Bastard, is this the money you brought back?" An old man looked at the banknotes, and with a slap of the young man to the ground.
The young man covered his cheeks and cried, "Dad, the merchant who traded with me told me that Dongshui has now replaced gold and silver with paper money, and these banknotes can be circulated in Dongshui. ”
"Do you have a brain, even if these banknotes can circulate in Dongshui, but we are in Xichu, Xichu doesn't want these things, do we want to drink the northwest wind." The old man was angry with snot and tears, and he wanted to slap his son to death.
"Master, don't blame the child, didn't you say that this money can be circulated in Dongshui? Then let's move to Dongshui, spend the money, and I heard that Dongshui takes care of businessmen very much. ”
"Well, that's all it had to be."
…………
The same scene is playing out in many places.
The merchants of Dongshui passed paper money to other countries by buying goods from other countries, and the merchants of other countries used gold and silver to buy goods from Dongshui, so that a large amount of gold and silver flowed into Dongshui, and these gold and silver were exchanged for paper money by Dongshui merchants in the bank to continue trading.
Paper money can only circulate in the east, in order to spend the paper money in their hands, for a time merchants from other countries were forced to enter the east, and in just a few months, the population of the entire continent has migrated to the east water in the Far East.
Inside Dongshui, the three giants of the government are severely cracking down on lawbreakers who spread rumors, and Qin Ruhai, the head of Dongshui Dali Temple, even executed hundreds of people on the street at the entrance of the vegetable market.
Under the suppression of Dongshui's almost iron-blooded policy, Dongshui's internal stability has also been quickly realized, and the advantages of banknotes in the process of use have gradually been reflected, which is easy to carry, light and easy, and simple to exchange.
The value of paper money in circulation has not been discounted and can still be purchased, and the people of Dongshui have gradually eliminated their prejudice against paper money, and in just a few months, paper money has completely replaced gold and silver.
Paper money to replace gold and silver, for other countries is not a good signal, for a time the emperors have closed the country to prohibit business with Dongshui, even so, a large number of paper money still continue to enter the surrounding countries, and those people also recognize this currency, paper money circulation is not because of the country's prohibition and extinction, on the contrary, there is a rising trend, which makes the surrounding countries extremely angry, have to imitate this currency to deal with this violation.
However, the production process of banknotes is strictly in the hands of Dongshui people, so other countries can't imitate it if they want to, after all, the symbol of "money" is too difficult to make, and the processing procedures of banknotes are not known, and the surrounding countries are in a mess.
When Chen Biao told Chen Chen all this, Chen Chen smiled undeniably: "When paper money replaces gold and silver as currency, this is the biochemistry of civilization and the progress of the times. ”
"Do you want to continue issuing banknotes?" A large amount of gold and silver poured into Dongshui, and Chen Biao was fluttering for a while, never thinking that this small piece of paper was so powerful.
Chen Chen shook his head: "It can't be issued again, and if it is reissued, I am afraid that inflation will cause a financial crisis, and the issuance of banknotes must be reported to the king." ”
"Yes." Chen Biao nodded solemnly.
"Okay, the four states of Dongshui are also stable, Chen Cheng and Commander Wei will come over soon, you go back to Kyoto first, take care of the economy in Kyoto, after all, it is our economic and financial center." Chen Chen lowered his head and thought about it, now that the four states have stabilized, the specific commercial trade must also continue to be formulated and developed in the future.
Chen Biao waved his hand and smiled: "Alas, there is nothing good in Tianzhou, I went back to Kyoto, where there is a drunken dream building, there is food, there is fun, it is very cool." ”
"Well, the order is for the prime minister to temporarily sit in Yunzhou, Qin Ruhai to temporarily sit in Shengzhou, and Wu Kexin will come to Tianzhou immediately to meet him." Chen Chen picked up paper and pen and wrote an edict for people to send out.
With the advent of paper money, Chen Chen asked the Ministry of Industry to vigorously develop papermaking, and a large amount of white paper was also continuously manufactured.
Then immediately supply the market, did not expect tens of thousands of pieces of white paper to be snatched up, many readers see this white paper, immediately love to put it down, not only remember a lot of things, easy to write, but also cheap, long storage time, in a short period of time, paper is in short supply.
For this reason, Chen Chen ordered all localities to stop the military industry and began to make paper to alleviate the demand for paper among students, and the benefits brought by paper are incomparably rich, and the typical small profit is large.
Paper, the carrier of this civilization, quickly circulated in the East Water.
Of course, in addition to the sales of official stores, Chen Chen naturally gave the sales rights of major merchants in Dongshui.
Under the premise of sufficient supply in Dongshui, a large amount of paper was also brought into other countries by Dongshui merchants, and millions of sheets were sold at a high price, no matter how high the price, they could achieve good sales.
For a while, Dongshui and surrounding countries have used this thing, and once it is used, it can't be stopped at all, the more you use it, the more convenient it is, the more you use it, the more you want to buy it, Dongshui's paper is almost the entire Far East Continent, Chen Chen is naturally very happy about this.
Papermaking was invented for the benefit of the people, but for Chen Chen, he doesn't want to share technology at present, after all, this financial road is too hot.
"Lord, congratulations, we have occupied other countries in Dongshui." After Commander Wei and Chen Cheng dealt with the construction of Yunzhou, they quickly came to Tianzhou, and all they heard along the way were rumors about Dongshui, and between the words, they only felt that Dongshui vaguely seemed to have infiltrated other countries in just a few months.
"Now it's just that Dongshui's goods and economy have entered other countries, and these are far from enough, after all, people can choose not to buy our goods." Chen Chen said this with a smile, but he was happy in his heart, don't buy it? If you don't buy it, let's continue to go back to the era of bamboo slips in primitive society.
He is well aware of the recent reactions of various countries, Dongshui's paper has almost looted a lot of people's wealth at sky-high prices, and all countries are prohibiting paper from entering the market, but can this be stopped? It's like a flood that opens the floodgates, and it can't be stopped.
"It's just that the paper circulation can't stand it? So if matches and soap and other necessities come out in the future, will the countries have to go crazy? Chen Chen hooked the corners of his mouth and said to himself, his heart was ten thousand comfortable.
After talking with Commander Wei and others, Chen Chen also learned about the current form, although Dongshui has infiltrated and affected various countries through paper money and white paper, and Dongshui has occupied a trench that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
However, the countries have already secretly stationed troops at the border gates, while controlling their own residents to enter the East Water, while closely watching the movement of the East Water, as soon as there is a wind and grass, immediately send troops to block it, and the East Water is invisibly trapped in one place.
