In good conscience, Li Chen had no choice but to use galvanized and copper-plated to issue Datang currency. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 On the one hand, he needs anti-counterfeiting means to block the passage of counterfeit money, and on the other hand, Datang does not have the conditions for his ideal currency reform.

His ideal monetary reform plan was a parallel combination of gold, silver and copper. In normal times, silver and copper are the standard, and gold coins are used as a supplement, which is supplemented by large transactions. However, the conditions for issuing gold and silver coins before Datang did not exist. Not even enough copper coins.

The reason for this is that precious metals are scarce in China. In Li Chen's impression, China's gold and silver mine production seems to have been not very rich. Unlike the Americas and the Japanese countries, valuable minerals such as gold and silver ore are often found, and they are still rich minerals.

Although, there is also a saying, in fact, there is not a lot of gold and silver in China, but from ancient times to the Han Dynasty, what is easy to be found has been discovered.

Although the expert explained that it was a misunderstanding, saying that it was gold, but it was actually copper, which also made sense, but Li Chen saw someone say that it was gold, what is the reason? He also forgot that there are actually a lot of arguments that support China's gold and silver mines anyway.

What is the actual reason, Li Chen doesn't want to bother, it doesn't matter what the reason is. The important thing is that the output of Datang precious metal ore is equal to his impression. It was as rare as he was impressed to produce the same amount, which was the trouble.

Although Datang is now, the output of various mineral deposits has actually increased slightly under his influence. The use of new pumping machines has made some waste mines that could not be mined due to groundwater problems resume mining. Let Datang increase production without increasing the situation of new pits.

The silver mines, from the time of his accession to the throne, were mined at twenty-five thousand taels a year, and tripled to eighty thousand taels. Originally, during the Tang Dynasty, there were 58 mines, but after he ascended the throne, there were only 20 mines, and they were all mined again

The annual output of copper ore has increased by more than half from the original 655,000 catties. Reach a million catties. The gold could reach three thousand five hundred taels. But it's still not enough.

Until now, he has focused on the development of precious metal mines in the country, which has been quite effective. Only then can we use the mineral deposits of the Japanese state to implement China's currency reform.

If you want to say that if you are not rich, you will not be rich, but there are still some gold and silver coins that can still be launched, Li Chen has already done it. Take advantage of the gold and silver tax collected by Datang every year, and you can issue gold and silver coins. But it's a drop in the bucket, the amount is so small, what's the use.

If the quantity is small, there will be a problem, even if all the production is minted into coins and flow into the market, the circulation will not be enough. The circulation is not enough, and it is very tolerant of being manipulated. Although gold and silver coins are inherently anti-counterfeiting, they can make a lot of money without making counterfeit coins.

First of all, he hoarded Juqi, inflated the private exchange price, and then released it in one go, by the way, mixed with some self-made, inferior gold and silver coins, which could also be doubled. Li Chen would never despise the Tang people, thinking that no one wanted this.

In order to avoid this problem, a large amount of each is required. If there is enough volume, it will be less difficult to control. Now, after several years of accumulation, several precious metal mines in the country have been developed, and the abundant output is enough to support the circulation.

There is also an expedition to the Americas, and the Americas will be rich in gold and silver mines, just around the corner. Although it is not clear when they will return, it doesn't matter if it drags on for a few years, the gold and silver mines of the Americas will not run away. When the time comes, with the support of those gold and silver mines, there will be no problems with the new currency.

Although it is very likely that the Americas will be discovered, due to the different time and space, the different geographical situation of the mountains and rivers, so that the silver mine cannot be found. It doesn't matter, the Inca Empire won't run away. For a while, no mines could be found, and trade and even conquest could be used to get large amounts of gold and silver from the Inca Empire.

In addition to the output of gold and silver, there is also the problem of regulation and control. It is supported by abundant gold and silver mines, which can ensure circulation. But someone has to regulate it.

Someone should pay attention to the exchange rate, which is what we call the exchange rate today. If no one cares, then no matter how abundant the supply is, it is all fake, and there is a law to follow, but no one implements a truth. So, he's going to have to wait until now.

Now all the land and banks in Datang have been established. A complete system has been formed, and there is no big problem in internal regulation and control of currency circulation in various places, as well as the national strongholds, and the exchange problem. Li Chen began to implement his gold and silver coin plan.

With the supervision of banks in various localities and the regulation and control of exchange rates, it should be possible to maintain the stability of the currency value. Even, Li Chen also plans to set up a telegraph for the bank, his own telegraph network, so that communication can be kept unimpeded at any time, and the head office can know at any time if there is a problem in the country, and then react.

Of course, he will not throw all the responsibility of supervision to one agency, or the agency that was originally responsible for the issuance and redemption, which is equivalent to playing with the player and referee. The Standing Division will also take on the responsibility of supervision.

It is very important to stabilize prices and currency values. Food prices need to be stable, otherwise all kinds of social problems will occur. The value of the currency must be stabilized, otherwise the stability of food prices is simply empty talk.

Li Chen remembers that a teacher said that the French also have control over the necessities of people's livelihood. French bread is the kind of bread that is long and hard enough to be used as a brick, and it is a fake bread if it is not a brick, for the French, it is the same daily staple food as rice, and the French government does not allow prices to fluctuate in order to stabilize prices.

Even foreigners understand this truth. Of course, Li Chen will not be negligent. Therefore, he has to wait for so many years before he dares to implement a new round of currency reform.

As the snow falls in the new year, the new coins will also be on the market, and the time will be launched in a bank to recycle the old copper and zinc coins and exchange them for new coins. In this business, the bank and the imperial court have no profit at all, because the copper-plated coins issued at the beginning have already obtained a wave of profits, and what benefits they get are equivalent to a cow peeling two layers of skin, and the exploitation of the people by red fruits.

There was nothing wrong with the pattern, and Li Chen asked the Ministry of Industry to start making it. Then, in the sixth year of junior high school, the New Year's pilgrimage party began. Li Chen put on a heavy dress and started a series of processes.

The most annoying thing of the year is the end of the year. This kind of heavy, cumbersome, action does not become clothes, to wear twice. The winter solstice is followed by various ceremonies.

On the day of the winter solstice, Li Chen put on a gorgeous costume and led a group of ministers to complete the suburban sacrifice ceremony, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. It is difficult for a modern person to understand the significance of the winter solstice. Although he also knows that the winter solstice is the shortest day of the year. It gets dark very quickly. Then in Taiwan, you have to eat glutinous rice balls. But when I first crossed over, I just felt that this kind of thing was meaningless.

But in ancient times, this day was a very solemn, very solemn day. People want to worship their ancestors, and it is best for relatives to reunite, and if they can't go home, they will leave two bowls and chopsticks for him. There were also solemn sacrifices in the imperial court. This custom has been handed down since the Zhou Dynasty. The winter solstice is to be sacrificed to the suburbs.

In the Han Dynasty, there were days off before and after the winter solstice to celebrate. It is different from the Zhou Dynasty because the Zhou Dynasty takes November as the New Year, so there is little difference between the winter solstice and the New Year's worship, and the Han Dynasty has such a distinction, of course, it is the same grand, and the suburban festival is still to be held.

The customs of the Han Dynasty have been used to this day, and the imperial court has taken a total of seven days off before and after the winter solstice, and has also held large-scale ceremonies< and it is recorded on the > that "the winter solstice of the Wei and Jin dynasties is congratulated by all countries and hundreds of bureaucrats...... Its ritual is inferior to Zhengdan. The Tang Dynasty was not far behind.

Even this year's winter solstice ceremony is even larger. Many tribes have sent envoys to congratulate them, and the Hanyuan Hall is wide open, and it is crowded with people.

Why was the winter solstice considered important in ancient times? Because this day is the shortest day of the year. After this day, the days will get longer and longer. The ancients believed that on this day, Yang Qi would slowly recover.

The Han Book records that "the winter solstice yang qi rises, the monarch is long, so he congratulates." On this day, the Han Dynasty government was held to hold the "He Dong" ceremony, "before and after the winter solstice, the gentleman is quiet, the officials are absolutely eventful, do not listen to the government, choose auspicious days and then save trouble." Hundreds of officials have a holiday to rest, the army is on standby, business travel is also closed, relatives and friends give each other delicious food, and visit each other.

The Book of Tang records, "Yuan Zheng, the beginning of the year; The winter solstice, the return of the yang, the two festivals are equally important. In the Tang Dynasty, this day was as important as the New Year, and the folk also had a saying that the winter solstice was as big as the year.

Entering the country is customary, Li Chen has come over for so many years, and he also attaches importance to the winter solstice. Even if you go to a strange country, you have to get used to the local customs, not to mention that he has crossed over. Besides, it is not vulgar, so I follow the crowd.

'Eighty-one days??? But compliance is compliance, Li Chen is still distracted by inertia, anyway, someone will keep reminding him what to do.

Eighty-one days, meaning, from this day on, winter came. Winter ninety-nine begins, ninety-nine eighty-one days. From the beginning of this winter solstice, eighty-one days, winter has passed, and spring is coming after the nine, "nine peach blossoms".

There is also a saying that martial arts practice is practiced in summer, and it is said that it is practiced in winter. In summer, dog days are the hottest three days, and these three days must be practiced. The winter practice is the coldest weather after the beginning of winter.

However, the eighty-one days he thought about were not exactly like that. He wondered if he was going to dry those guys for eighty-one days.

After the Battle of Youzhou, the allied forces of all ethnic groups were defeated, and they were beaten to the idea of having money and not having money, and robbing the Tang Dynasty to celebrate the New Year. I was beaten to the cold.

Seriously, in fact, their losses are not that big. After cleaning up the battlefield afterwards, after deducting the Bohai people, the allied army of all ethnic groups probably killed more than 7,000 people. Among them, the most large part are Khitans, and they are all the elite of their clan. A small number were affected by the coalition forces of the Deshanxi, Murowei and Jinyi tribes.

The total number of 80,000 nomadic coalition troops, less than one percent died, and most of them were forwards, but not much was affected in the back, most of them fled on their own, not as miserable as the Bohai people, and were served in a pot. The loss is really not big, and it stands to reason that it should not be broken.

But that's it. Everyone was frightened, why was Tang Jun so fierce. It's not that I haven't seen Tang Jun before, but how can I be so fierce. That thunder, just to scare people? It's really the courage of the Khitan (Shanxi, Murowei, and Yao) warriors to be so small. This is what they have in common.

There is also the Datang Nama Army, how to train it. They were originally afraid of the Tang Dynasty infantry formation, but now the Tang Dynasty even cavalry is charging in formation, how will this battle be fought in the future?

Originally, according to their habits, they should flee as soon as possible and move the tribe to other places to avoid the Tang army's attack. They were deeply afraid that the Tang army would retaliate, so they took advantage of the great victory and the gathering of large armies to teach them a hard lesson.

So they had to flee as soon as possible. The grassland peoples have deeply learned the thirty-six strategies, and they have learned the essence of the upper plan and run.

But where can you go? Among them, the most frightened are the Khitan and Shanxi, Shanxi is close, closest to the Tang Dynasty, and the worst lesson, if it weren't for the multi-ethnic coalition this time. They didn't dare to move lightly. As a result, the coalition army was defeated, although their losses were extremely light, but they were closest to Datang, and whoever Datang wanted to repair, they would definitely not be able to escape, and they would reach them first when they crossed the border with Datang.

There is also the Khitan, although they are some distance from Datang, but no one dares to pack tickets, Datang will not chase thousands of miles, before, although it was a long time ago, they were also taught by Datang. Now that Datang is so fierce, if he goes deep into the desert to chase and kill, the Khitan will be finished.

Therefore, the Khitan suffered heavy losses, and was beaten by the Tang artillery and iron cavalry, and the Khitan was also among the most wanted to escape.

Only, where can they run? Don't say anything about making your home on horseback. Wherever you go, you can live with grass, cattle and sheep. The tent rolls up, the cattle and sheep bring it, and you can go anywhere.

It is true that they live in pursuit of water and grass. Grass is everywhere, more and less a problem. But what about the water? Water is not available everywhere. Without water, do cattle and sheep die of thirst? And, now it's going to be winter, cattle and sheep are trying to grow fat stage, if they migrate now, cattle and sheep will lose fat, and when winter comes, they will be frozen to death and starved to death.

Therefore, living by water and grass does not mean that you can walk. Besides, a big question, go, where are you going? Where there is water, there are actually quite a few of them. But if you want to spend the winter, you want to find a place with abundant water and grass, and don't the others want it? Everybody wants it.

Moreover, every place in the north with abundant water and grass has long been occupied. It is not only occupied now, where there is water, the grass will be more lush, the cattle and sheep will get water conveniently, they will eat more full, and grow faster. So these places have always been occupied by the most powerful tribes.

It's all occupied, and now all of a sudden outsiders are going to migrate over, so what awaits them? Don't say it, let's go to war.

If the Shanxi and Khitan tribes want to migrate, they can only migrate to the places of the Murwei and the Ya tribes. These two tribes will not rest alone, and they will definitely fight. Don't come when the Tang Army comes, but when you see them fighting, people clasp their hands and watch the jokes on the side. When they were exhausted, they just cleaned up one piece.

Perhaps, the Tang army didn't have to do anything, they themselves would kill each other first, and even if the Tang army was killed or wounded, I am afraid it would be laughing to death.

Since you can't run, what can you do? I can only come to the court.
