As the date of the military parade approaches, and coincides with the New Year's pass, the wind and snow can not stop the people from stepping on the footsteps of Chang'an City, in the Qujiang Pond of Nuoda, all kinds of large and small ships will be crowded on the water surface like dumplings, just to listen to the fairy music from the camp of the art troupe, and Wanmin Square is even more overcrowded, tens of thousands of people gather here every day, in addition to the small businessmen who juggle and sell, more people are guarding the door to watch the fresh goods pulled into the supermarket by a large car, it is said that after the opening of the supermarket, Will face the entire Chang'an people retail these goods, the types of these goods have reached thousands of goods, just easy to preserve food have hundreds of kinds, the posters printed in advance are overwhelming everywhere, attracting people who love to see the excitement like to gather here.

Behind all the prosperity is to rely on a large number of manpower and strict organization to maintain the order of Chang'an City, the Wuhou team joined a lot of veterans who came back from the battlefield, they changed into new clothes and equipment, which looked particularly cautious, the shining silver police badge was particularly conspicuous, and the police badge similar to the military rank was hung on the shoulder, which was very convincing to the people of Chang'an. And the sanitation team at least three times a day to clean the streets, so that the whole street is clean like their own room, the figure of the urban management team will always go around the city, manage some dirty and messy phenomena, in the control area of Wanmin Square, which is a large flow of people, you can spit at will may also attract the punishment of the urban management team, once the flow of people gathered is millions, it is very difficult to manage the situation, so in ancient times, a large number of people were generally forbidden to gather, but this problem has now been solved in Chang'an City, and the happiest is of course the businessmen of Chang'an City. With a large flow of people, their business is naturally good, and a pancake seller can earn several times a day, and can maintain a continuous flow of customers throughout the day. This is the commercial effect of large-scale events.

Yanglin arranged the final work of all the military parades, he had privately reviewed the phalanxes of each army three times, and the final joint rehearsal and various positions, the emperor's speech lines, he had to be good with Li Er in advance, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshucen text stubbornly asked Yanglin to compile all the designed ceremonies into the emperor's parade etiquette classics, and their Ministry of Rites was in charge of the rules. My favorite thing is naturally to establish rules, and if I don't find something to do, the Ministry of Rites will become another idle yamen after the Yushitai. This is also the consequence of the establishment of the police summer, a qiē to Tang law as a behavior respect, the police station can be said to have achieved the initial requirements of Yanglin to quickly stop and defend against crime. In Tang Luli. Disrespecting the law of etiquette is also a crime, although they are in charge of some small people in Chang'an City, but the whole atmosphere will affect the officials in the court, and the officials are in an unprecedented busy, and a few are free to break the ban! The most important thing is that there are too many officials who challenge the original etiquette now, and the Imperial Historical Observatory can't be impeached, and the Ministry of Rites can't manage it, so the chapter goes to the emperor. It's all a stone in the sea, and the final reply is. Change the rules, who will rush to do boring things for themselves!

The reform is constantly going on in a busy and fast rhythm, Yang Lin is followed by a large number of scribes holding brushes and blank pages, because he is instructing Li Er to do things in the military parade, where to get on the car, where to stand, what to say, what kind of action to take, posture, Yang Lin has requirements, since Yang Lin has requirements, it belongs to a kind of etiquette, as for Li Er's dragon robe, Yang Lin also boldly took it off for him, a set of new clothes for the warlord marshal in the Republic of China period has long been tailored for Li Er, The golden badge was hung up, not angry and arrogant, and even Li Er himself was quite complacent, and this costume was called the emperor's uniform by the Ministry of Rites.

Yang Lin took a few photos of Li Er with a camera, and after having a stable power supply, Yang Lin finally didn't have so many scruples when he used these things, not to mention, after the beard was trimmed, Li Er really looked a bit like Yuan Datou, and Li Er, who looked like Yuan Datou, talked to Yang Lin about the issue of issuing currency like Yuan Datou for the first time.

"Your Majesty, the full implementation of the new currency is imminent, the supermarket of the heaven and earth entertainment city has more than 3,000 salesmen per shift, of which more than 1,000 people are used for cashiering, if it is not for our sales will be very profitable, the labor cost of these people alone is a big expense, this is just the inconvenience of collecting money, what about the people who bring money to buy things? Everyone has to carry a heavy money bag, even if some use silver tickets to exchange huàn rolls or something, change or something is also a point, and the waste of time and labor costs is very large. Yang Lin used his camera to photograph Li Er, who was posing in various narcissistic poses, while building a yì road.

In fact, the new currency began to be minted in Nanzhao more than a year ago, but unfortunately the progress was too slow, and a large number of printed silver tickets Li Er felt unreliable, and the ordinary people of Datang had a very limited ability to distinguish the authenticity of silver tickets, not to mention those foreigners, so he had not agreed to Yanglin's issuance of paper money, and the shopping cards pre-sold in supermarkets could only solve the consumption problems of some officials or large households. It can be regarded as a solution to the problem of cashier troubles of some of the main consumers.

"Can the issuance of banknotes and silver bills really allow the imperial court to better control its capital?" Li Shimin still asked with some suspicion.

"Of course, the most obvious truth, when they exchange all the real money and silver in their hands for the banknotes printed by His Majesty, do they dare to rebel? Once the Tang Dynasty collapses, then all the people holding the banknotes printed by the Tang Dynasty will be nothing, can they agree? Then there is the paper silver ticket can indeed bring convenience to people, and the recovery of more real money, the imperial court has other wonderful uses, you think about it, when the surrounding foreigners who do business with us are also holding the silver tickets printed by the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty's control over them is not stronger, we can absorb a large amount of cash in their hands at the beginning stage, and then it will not be long before their own country will find a way to print similar money tickets, because of convenience, when these easy and easy to carry transaction currencies flood their country, Datang can lightly impose economic sanctions on those countries that do not accept the king. Yang Lin said mysteriously.

"Economic sanctions? What kind of sanctions law? Qin Shi Huang unified the currencies of the six countries and died not the same II, is there any saying here? Li Er frowned and asked, he could understand military sanctions, but he hadn't heard of economic sanctions.

"Qin Shi Huang is only the currency of the Central Plains, you are different, you want to unify the currency of the world, think about it, when all countries use their own national currency and the Tang Dynasty currency to trade goods, Datang suddenly suspended the transaction of a country that is not satisfied with the Tang Dynasty, then the country's foreign economy will be paralyzed in an instant, because the Tang currency has become the settlement currency of all countries, and the Tang Dynasty does not recognize the currency of this country, so other countries trade with it, The currency is not accurate, because other countries still have to maintain trade and currency transactions with Datang, and in a small range, it basically locks the country's foreign economic and trade in an instant, at least let them return to the era of barter, and it will be very troublesome when encountering large transactions. ”

Yang Lin said for a long time, Li Er still didn't understand it, and he didn't blame him for being so, in fact, the current society is mostly bartering, and Yang Lin's concept is too advanced, no wonder he doesn't understand, but the issuance of gold, silver and copper coins by weight can indeed solve the trouble caused by too many coins and too heavy.

Datang has minted three small denominations of copper coins, such as one wen, five wen, ten wen, etc., and silver coins have also minted three denominations, the smallest is a silver coin equivalent to one hundred wen copper coins, a medium silver coin is equivalent to five hundred wen, and a large silver coin is called a silver dollar, which is equivalent to a consistent, that is, a thousand wen.

As for the gold that is less used as currency, three kinds of denominations of currency are also minted, the smallest denomination is equivalent to the same, the medium one wants to be five guan, and the large gold dollar is ten guan, so that as long as the three-color currency is all issued, a person's small money bag can also hold one hundred and eighty yuan of cash without bearing much weight, because ten gold dollars is one hundred yuan, and this value can basically buy all the loose goods on the market, and even go to the heaven and earth hotel to eat a few tables of the best table.

"Let's wait! The first batch of currency from the Nanzhao system has been brought back to Chang'an by me, 10 million yuan, which is not less, but my inner treasury is more than so much money, how can I exchange the money in the hands of all the people of Chang'an! So I'm going to wait two years, when the newly minted currency is enough to exchange it with all the money in circulation, and then open the bank you are talking about. Li Er couldn't think it through, and he didn't think much about it, so he said to Yang Lin according to his own plan.

"Ten million? Enough, these currencies can solve the scattered currency transactions in Chang'an City, where there are people who make the same amount of new currency before issuing it, in fact, it can be recycled while it is issued, and the recycled old currency will be minted into new currency on the spot in Chang'an, as long as you remember how many new currencies have been issued in total, you will know how much currency is in circulation in this country, and the whole process may last for several years, and after a certain period of time, it will be announced that Datang will not recognize the value of the old currency after a period of time, and those old currencies will be forced out. It's just that the poor and remote areas should do a good job of publicity, and this year it will be issued in Chang'an City, and next year it will be issued in all prefectures and counties, and it will not be a big problem to completely change the new currency after five years. Yang Lin explained.

If all rely on the newly developed gold, silver and copper mines to make new coins, then let alone two years, ten years will not be able to create a new currency equivalent to the existing circulating currency of the Tang Dynasty, take a large household like Yanglin, with tens of millions of dollars in his hands, just his family's money, let the migrant workers who open the mine dig slowly It will take a few years to dig out the ore to make so many coins, Li Er thinks about the problem too simply, and also underestimates the amount of money saved by the people, storage is the most far-reaching virtue in the history of the Chinese nation, starting with gold, silver and copper coins, Currency has been circulating in this world for thousands of years, and it is constantly being developed every year, newly minted, not to mention tens of millions of dollars, Yang Lin roughly estimated, if all gold, silver and copper are summarized as currency, Datang itself has at least more than one billion yuan worth of currency, as for foreign countries, as well as jewelry and other things that are sometimes used as currency, not counted, if Li Er wants to exchange all the gold, silver and copper coins produced by the new mine for old coins, it will not work until he dies, and it is inevitable to recycle old coins and make new coins, In this way, it can be completed within a few years at most, after all, if it is just re-casting, it is not a problem for the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty to make hundreds of millions of coins a year.
