After Qian Duoduo's wife and children went out, Li Guo said to Qian Duoduo, "Old Qian, in fact, I also value you when I take them over, so as not to separate your flesh and blood, don't think too much." ”

Qian Duoduo waved his hand again and again, "Don't dare, don't dare." "Qian Duoduo is also telling the truth, he used to have his own life, and he threw it here, but now his wife and children are here, but he really doesn't dare to think twice. Besides, now Qian Duoduo himself really believes in Li Guo's superstitious rumors.

"Old money, in fact, I'm not bragging, if I hadn't done too much, I wouldn't have seen you lose to you in business alone." Li Guo bragged.

Qian Duoduo nodded, but his expression was obviously disbelieving.

"Old Qian, you don't have to believe it, let me tell you, if you do business and do business, it is all small business, but it is inside and outside. What I want to do is to be able to make the world's big deals. Li Guo knew that the Qiao family in Shanxi in the Qing Dynasty was connected to the world, so he said it.

Connecting the world? Qian Duoduo shook his head, not understanding.

The so-called Huitong Tianxia means that the silver bills issued by this bank can be exchanged in any corner of the world, similar to the current state-owned banks and credit cooperatives.

Is it feasible to connect the world? The answer is yes. Huitong used silver tickets, and the role of silver tickets and minmin coins is the same, and silver tickets and exchange silver tickets are feasible, because silver tickets are not uncommon for people at that time.

In fact, as early as the Song Dynasty, there were "silver ticket shopkeepers" who operated cash custody business for merchants who carried huge sums of money. The depositor delivers the cash to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper temporarily fills in the amount of cash deposited by the depositor on a roll made of 楮 paper, and then returns it to the depositor, and when the depositor withdraws cash, he pays 3% of the interest paid to the shopkeeper for every 30 yuan of interest. This kind of paper coupon that temporarily fills in the deposit amount is called a "silver ticket". At this time, the "silver ticket" is only a deposit and withdrawal certificate, not a currency.

Later, "silver bills" printed with a uniform denomination and format appeared, which were issued to the market as a new means of circulation. This "silver ticket" is already a symbol of coinage, and it has truly become a silver ticket. At this time, the silver ticket is called Jiaozi.

The silver bills printed at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty were called Daming treasure banknotes, but due to the severe inflation, they were discontinued in the orthodox years. Of course, the depreciation of silver bills or banknotes involves the gold standard and the silver standard, that is, if you issue a silver ticket for one or two silver, you must have one or two silver lying there in the treasury, otherwise you will lose your credit. Is money itself a piece of paper, it has no value, but only represents the credit of the state. Whether it is a businessman or a country, without credit, money is really not money, but paper. Of course, this has nothing to do with this book, it's a currency war.

The silver ticket is very convenient to use, but the silver ticket at this time is not easy to use, because of the war and the reputation of the merchant.

At this time, it is not easy to do business, and it is good if you can barter goods. However, at that time, the information was not smooth, and in many cases, the goods that were shipped over were too valuable.

So at that time, the bulk business transactions were in cash, so the problem came, because the silver was very heavy and it was very inconvenient to carry. We often see on TV that so-and-so rewarded so-and-so with two thousand taels of silver, and so-and-so was grateful to Dade and went home happily with the silver. These are all nonsense, you can calculate, how much a thousand taels or two thousand taels of silver weigh.

And the most important point is that the silver of the white flowers is placed there, and the eyes of the peasant army brothers, bandits, and officers and soldiers who live together are red and bright, and they don't rub sand in their eyes, they can't stand such a thorn*, and it is certain that they will leave to buy road money, and they will leave their lives if they don't get it.

Therefore, the silver ticket is very convenient, and it is also the basis for the world.

Of course, Li Guo's understanding of Huitong World only comes from TV dramas, and it is Qiao Zhiyong, a Jin merchant in the late Qing Dynasty, who put forward the theory of Huitong World and realized it. Li Guo likes that TV series very much, although Li Guo doesn't know how to do business, but the TV series is very well filmed, so Li Guo is still very reliable to talk to Qian Duoduo about the world.

Talking about business to businessmen is, of course, the right way. It's like talking about being an official to Nie Xin and others, because those are all official fans.

"Therefore, my ideal is political unification, the same book, and the same money." In the end, Li Guo was ashamed to say that in fact, Li Guo also knew in his heart that it was more difficult to achieve these than to ascend to the sky.

However, doing things often starts with bragging, for example, so-and-so says what I can do, others don't believe it, but if so-and-so really does it, overcomes a thousand difficulties and obstacles, maybe he can also succeed, this kind of person is called a great man. The meaning of a great man is to fool everyone to get things done, and if they make it happen, they are all heroes, and they can't be finished. The difference between a hero and a liar is sometimes luck and misfortune.

But no matter whether things are done or not, it is very exciting to draw a big pie first, and it doesn't cost money, and Li Guo doesn't have any money now.

After listening to Li Guo's talk about the world, Qian Duoduo was excited, and immediately calmed down again, "This thing is not easy. ”

"Smack!" Li Guo slapped the table and startled Qian Duoduo.

"Old Qian, what you said is right, this thing is too difficult!" Li Guo said heavily, "Because it is a war now, no one will believe a piece of paper in the troubled times." ”

Qian Duoduo nodded.

"Old Qian, how old are you this year?" Li Guo suddenly said something that didn't make sense.

Qian Duoduo was stunned, "Forty-six years old, what's wrong?" Qian Duoduo wondered.

"Life is short, and there are not many days to go, do you want to live like this for a lifetime of doing nothing?" Li asked.

"I don't want to." Qian Duoduo is also an ambitious person.

"If you don't want to, then you have to help me, in the troubled times, to realize our ideas can only win the world, the world is peaceful, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. At that time, I, Li Guo, will be fortunate enough to really dominate the world, old money, I will let you be in charge of the household department, and the world will be just around the corner. Don't think it's too difficult, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was just a poor little monk back then, but in just a dozen years, didn't he establish a dynasty? Think about what Chen Sheng and Wu Guang said, princes and generals, rather have a kind! Li Guo made a generous statement.

"!" Qian Duoduo was excited, "My grandson doesn't do it!" Master Tiger, you prepare the capital, I'll plan it, and I'll go to the gate! ”

Li Guo looked at Nie Xin and Huang Xiu, only the two of them knew their current predicament. "No money!" Li Guo smiled bitterly.

"No money?" Qian Duoduo asked.

Li Guo shook his head, "Old Qian, you calculate, we only have a total of more than 100,000 taels of silver, and we gave gifts of more than 30,000 taels of silver." Farming, opening canals, selling war horses, selling weapons, people eating what horses feed, plus storing grain and grass, can there be any silver left? ”

"Also, I have more than 8,000 taels of silver, which are stored in the money villages in Zhangjiakou and Taiyuan. However, the sheep I sold for the owner Liang Yongdong was robbed by you, and now I can't save face when I go back. But after all, it's not my personal reason, and it's okay, no matter what, I'll go get the silver and do business! Although there is a little less silver, slowly, it adds up? ”

"Old money, Liang Yongdong's principal is to be repaid, and I will pay it back. Your little money is not enough, the capital is too small, and you are slow to make money. Don't worry, I still have a way to get silver! It's not long-term enough, and it's not authentic enough, but it's right. "Lee had already thought about it.

"Is there a way?" Now not only does Qian Duoduo not believe it, but other people don't believe it either.

"We can grab it." Li Guo said with confidence.

"No!" Quan Zhihuan was the first to object, "The tiger master should strive for the hearts of the people, if we kill people and set fires, it will not be good to disturb the people everywhere." ”

"Disturbing the people? No, no, no, how can it disturb the people? In addition, you go to check if there are any bandits in the meander, and you can check if these bandits are no better than the peasant rebels, so who will we rob if we don't rob them? Li Guo commanded.

"Old money." Li Guo turned to Qian Duoduo, "We will have the silver to make the capital!" ”
