When the news was officially announced, the outlets of the Daming Central Bank of Beizhili and the new deal provinces had begun to issue apocalypse banknotes.

However, in the beginning, people were able to withdraw silver dollars from the bank.

The main reason is that the treasure banknotes issued by the Ming Dynasty in the past are worthless because of excessive issuance, and the people are easy to panic because they can't take out the silver dollars.

So I gave half a month to make the transition.

Economic activity continued, and soon the Apocalypse Treasure Money entered the lives of ordinary people. The salaries of the civil and military officials of the imperial court, as well as the salaries of officers and soldiers, as well as the employees of state-owned enterprises, and the enterprises managed by various merchants in the consortium, all used the Apocalypse Treasure Banknote.

"Apocalypse Treasure Money? Can this thing really buy something? A coal miner from the Royal Mining Company looked over and over with three 1 yuan apocalypse bills.

Of course, the Royal Mining Company has now been reorganized into the Daming Mining Company, and the royal color is fading.

The obverse of the Apocalypse banknote is printed with a dragon surrounding a flame, which also symbolizes the fire virtue of the Ming Dynasty, and the dragon symbolizes imperial power.

On the left is a steam engine, and on the right is a ship, representing the Ming Dynasty is about to start the industrial revolution and the new changes of the Age of Discovery.

In the center of the flame pattern, there is a word 'One Yuan'.

At the top are the words 'Daming Central Bank'.

On the back is printed the "Anti-Counterfeiting Law" that has just been added to the "Criminal Law", that is: counterfeiting banknotes is a felony, regardless of the amount of money, the death penalty is punished, and the family members are official slaves. At the same time, it is a crime to buy and sell banknote paper and engrave banknote templates. Anyone who fails to report the counterfeiting of banknotes shall be fined three years' imprisonment according to the scale of the counterfeited banknotes. The reward for whistleblowers ranges from 100 taels to 1,000 taels of gold. and reward the people with honors of varying heights. At the same time, members of the counterfeit banknote making gang can be exempted from punishment if they report it. And the reward does not change.

Below is the year and number of the banknotes.

At the same time, there are several seals on the back, one is 'Daming Central Bank Beizhili Branch', and the other is 'Jingshi Branch'.

Anti-counterfeiting technology is generally to take several methods, one is to use high-quality white paper, and strictly prohibit private imitation, trading.

One is that the engraving pattern is complex and there are many words, and the forger does not imitate the engraving when it is complicated. Of course, it is not excluded that individual craftsmen have some unnatural craftsmanship, which can be imitated very similarly, but the probability is very small.

The third is stamping. Banknotes issued in each region are stamped layer by layer. Local residents only use locally stamped banknotes, and banknotes stamped from other places can also be circulated, but they will be sent back to the place of stamping after entering the banking system. As a result, the number of foreign stamped banknotes in the local circulation is small, and the local people can pay careful attention to whether they are counterfeit when they receive them. Once a counterfeit foreign stamp banknote is found, the local bank will stipulate that the local stamp banknote must be exchanged at the local bank before it can be circulated and used in the local area.

This means that counterfeit money makers have to imitate various seals when making counterfeit money, and each state and county has its own seal. If there are fewer counterfeit seals, counterfeit money can only be circulated somewhere. It will not directly affect the whole country.

At the same time, heavy rewards, heavy penalties, and instigation against criminal gang members make the gang suspicious of each other, so as to crack down on counterfeit money manufacturing.

And the imperial court will set up money tellers everywhere. This kind of money reader does not need to be paid by the imperial court, anyway, he just recognizes money. However, a fee can be charged for helping to recognize money, and the recognition will be charged 1 wen at a time, and the maximum amount will not exceed 10 wen.

Like any veteran, civil servant, and ordinary people with a good reputation in the market, they can be this money reader. learn

The coal miner took the money and went to the grain store first.

As a result, I successfully bought more than a dozen catties of flour, which was more favorable than buying with silver dollars, and at the same time found that the grain bank also hung up a sign: no silver dollars will be accepted after three days, please go to the bank to exchange silver dollars for treasure banknotes and come to buy.

Many people were surprised to find that many shops in the market did not like cashier dollars.

The three-day transition period has given many people a preliminary understanding of the treasure banknotes. The common people soon discovered that treasure banknotes were more popular with merchants.

Many merchants have also launched price concessions, as long as you use treasure banknotes, you can buy more preferential goods.

The influence of the consortium is obviously amazing, and the consortium has various resources in its hands at this time, and these resources immediately stabilize the value of the treasure banknote.

For example, bulk commodities such as grain, steel, coal mines, and salt must be purchased with apocalyptic treasure money.

Since the first day alone, there have been many businesses exchanging Apocalypse Treasure banknotes at the bank counter. After only three days, the people began to accept the Apocalypse Treasure Money.

After three days, all the companies of the consortium no longer receive any silver dollars. If many people want to buy something, they must first go to exchange for the Apocalypse Treasure Banknote.

There are also people in the market who are helping to exchange the Apocalypse Treasure Banknote.

The Apocalypse Treasure Banknote was centered on the capital very quickly and began to spread in the New Deal area.

In addition to the face value of 1 yuan, there are 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 50 yuan, 100 yuan and 1000 yuan, these banknotes were soon welcomed by merchants, because the use of banknotes is much more convenient than the use of silver, as for what counterfeit banknotes, silver dollars are also fake!

The composition and weight of silver are easy to counterfeit, but as long as the banknote is confirmed to be not fake, there will be no problem.

Of course, the depreciation of paper money that merchants are worried about must be depreciated, but it is absolutely impossible to depreciate the exchange peg of silver.

After all, it is impossible for all banknotes to be exchanged for silver, and ordinary people are absolutely impossible to escape. Nor can all the businessmen flee, and the consortia have become economically dominant in the administrative regions.

Now that the consortium has become a state-owned consortium, the exchange rate between currency and silver is simply strong.

Currencies below 1 yuan are still copper coins.

However, banks also began to recycle those inferior copper coins, and began to mint all of them into high-quality, high-quality Apocalypse Tongbao. At the same time, a lot of brass can be obtained from trade with Japan every year, and this brass is basically minted into copper coins.

The demand for copper coins in the Ming Dynasty is still increasing, especially after the change of the financial system in the New Deal area, the economy will inevitably produce a rapid growth, and the demand for copper coins will be further increased.

Two months later, paper money was popularized throughout the administrative region. The central bank issued nearly 800 million yuan of banknotes, which is also the amount of money in the current administrative region.

That's a lot of money, but it's still not much. It's just that compared with Zhu Youxiao's accession to the throne, the amount of currency in Beizhili has greatly increased.

It is mainly the iron and steel, salt industry and other industries, which have a strong ability to absorb gold from the outside world, so that silver continues to flow in.

Within two months, the silver dollar was cut off from circulation in the New Deal area, and most of the silver dollars were exchanged for paper money, although many people and merchants still stubbornly hid the silver dollars.

But it doesn't matter anymore, hiding silver will only accelerate the shrinkage of wealth.

After all, money can still get interest when it is placed in the bank, and silver dollars will not be born at home, but will continue to shrink as the issuance of paper money increases.

However, the exchange of silver and paper money is linked, and the purchasing power of paper money will only cause a decrease in the purchasing power of agricultural products and real estate in the newly expropriated areas, but the purchasing power of steel, coal, and other commodities will not decrease.

Raising the price of agricultural products is necessary to stimulate production. At the same time, the demand of the market is met by raising the income of workers.

It is equivalent to the biggest beneficiary of inflation, in fact, those ordinary people who are willing to do things. And the biggest victims are the traditional elite interests who sit at home and collect money with their feet crossed. And those people who don't do things, although they are also affected by inflation, they themselves do not have much money in their hands, and they cannot afford to lose much inflation.

The biggest advantage is that the imperial court finally doesn't have to worry about running out of money. Various construction projects can be started by issuing additional banknotes, so as to spread money to ordinary people. It can not only solve the infrastructure problem, but also solve the problem of feeding the people.

The market can be revitalized at once.

If the previous Daming market was a little lifeless, then after the emergence of banknotes, the pace of economic development will be faster and faster, and the vitality will become stronger and stronger.

Time saw that March was about to enter summer, and Zhu Youxiao finally couldn't sit still, so he immediately dragged his family to Chengde to escape the summer in the name of summer vacation.

It's called summer retreat, but it's actually a retreat!

The famous apocalypse explosion didn't know when it would blow up, so it was better to shoot first. (To be continued.) )
