Since Ximenqing handed over the general agency of silver to the Tsushima clan of the Wa State, the Wa State and the Chinese Federation formally established diplomatic relations, and the metal mining industry of the Wa State ushered in a blowout period, and a steady stream of silver and copper entered China from the sea.

With the silver reserves, Ximenqing officially began the currency reform. In the autumn and September of 1116 AD, the Chinese Federation announced the issuance of new coins, which adopted the silver standard, supplemented by copper coins.

Based on the price of private rice, the government of the People's Republic of China has carried out the exchange of old and new currencies. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the price of private rice was about one stone, and the bulky money was exactly exchanged for one tael of light silver ingots, so that the new monetary system won the support of the merchants.

Under the silver ingots, copper coins are popular. The difference between the copper coins of the Chinese Federation and the copper coins of the late Song Dynasty is that the copper coins are made of copper-lead alloy, with a ratio of copper seven lead three; The new copper coin is made of copper-zinc alloy, the proportion of copper six zinc four, not only effectively saves the cost of coinage, and the new copper coin is more than the old copper coin, wear resistance, when held in the hand, the difference between the new country and the old dynasty is immediately distinguished.

The bigger difference is the exchange ratio of the new money. The Ministry of Commerce's initial proposal was to exchange the official value of the new copper coins for 15 yuan, and on this basis, the proportion of inferior money should fluctuate. After hearing this, Ximenqing raised his sleeves: "I can't make the people make money!" As a result, under Ximenqing's strong intervention, the Federal Parliament voted to maintain the exchange ratio of new copper coins and old copper coins at a one-to-one standard.

"This is a cost that the government should pay! The government has the responsibility to revitalize business, but it can't make itself a business predator and eat the people quickly! Ximen Qing said. As he said this, his piercing eyes swept through the crowd, causing many to sit on pins and needles.

In addition to the fact that the government cannot be a predator integrating government and business, Ximenqing does not even want the society to enter the industrial and commercial civilization system of later generations, because he personally feels that after the Pandora's box of modern industrial and commercial civilization is opened, what is released is a sword of Damocles hanging over the head of mankind, which is pervasive in plundering and extracting resources, and unscrupulous in destroying the environment, but I am afraid that even the worldwide corruption problem is affected by this atmosphere.

There is a story in the Zhuangzi that an old man had a shallow well in his vegetable garden, and every day the old man jumped into the well with a clay pot, fetched a jar of water and climbed up to water the vegetables. Zigong asked him why he didn't get an orange tree (i.e., a lever), it would be much more convenient. The old man said that although the leverage was light, he would not use it. Why? It is a machine, people rely on the machine to start the heart, just think about how to be ingenious, steal the opportunity to take advantage of the trick, from now on the world can still be peaceful?

So after Ximenqing crossed into this world, he rarely made any inventions and creations, of course he would not work hard to realize Lao Tzu's "the voice of chickens and dogs hear each other, and the old and the dead do not get along" The system of small countries and widows, but he also does not want the times to go too fast on the road of evolution, and the consequence of endless acceleration will inevitably be derailment, and everyone will die together at that time.

Of course, Ximenqing also knows that this earth is not the only one by itself, and if you don't take the road of progress, others will take it, but at this time, China is the center of world civilization, isn't it? Since he is the leader, Ximenqing hopes that his role model will not be too eager for quick success and quick success, and will not be too outrageous.

In the Song Dynasty, Ximenqing found that the ancients were not much worse than the modern people when they really tossed it. For example, in ancient times, most of the ink was processed from pine trees, so wherever the ink was famous, the pine trees were nowhere to be found - all of them were cut down. Based on the amount of ink used by the ancients, it is a miracle that the pine trees of later generations were not cut down and extinct!

In order to save the precarious pine trees, Ximenqing forbade the reproduction of pine smoke and ink, but in order to prevent thousands of ink workers from starving to death, he had to let the military fierce fire oil enter the civilian field - the efficiency, cost, and output of the fierce fire oil are better than the pine smoke ink.

What Ximenqing wants to save is not just pine trees. In the process of this currency reform, Ximenqing took the opportunity to vigorously promote the concept of low-carbon environmental protection in later generations. For example, zinc is needed to mint copper coins, and the ancient soil method of smelting zinc is more troublesome -- first put zinc ore mixed with charcoal into a bullet-shaped mud pot, seal it with mud, fix it with the tip down after drying, calcine it with coking coal, and wait for the zinc ore to melt into a mass after a period of time, and then open it and take it out after cooling, so that you can get zinc ingots with a purity of more than 95 percent -- the whole process is quite serious about environmental pollution.

Ximenqing didn't say anything big, but just dragged everyone in the council to the zinc ingot refining site for a day to express his condolences to the meritorious men who fought on the front line for the coinage of the Chinese Federation. After returning, all the parliamentarians who were half choked to death rushed to vote in favor of the "Environmental Protection Law of the Chinese Federation" -- because Ximenqing said that he would often go there in the future to offer condolences.

All coking, steelmaking, zinc and copper smelting ...... in the Chinese Federation In places like this, all of them must meet strict greening standards, and those that can't be done are all rolled rough, so that those who can do it can do it; At the same time, for the first time, the Chinese Federation put forward the concept of cutting down trees as if they were cutting down people, and if a person who ignored the prohibition and cut down trees in vain, the executioners would throw as many axes on him as he could, so that he could deeply understand the pain of the tree being cut down - if he was still alive afterwards, and if the circumstances were serious, his family would also be cut down together.

When a group or individual has a reason to cut down a tree, it must be reviewed by the local council, and after the cut-down, it is necessary to replant a tree, plant 10 trees, and it must not be perfunctory like the planting of the number of trees in later generations, and must ensure 100% survival......

The vigorous implementation of the environmental protection bill has greatly ensured that the green coverage rate of the Chinese Federation ranks among the top in the world, and the pace of greening in later generations has been pushed to the edge of the desert before it has to be temporarily suspended. Of course, this is a distant story.

Now these days, Ximenqing is busy alchemy and planting trees. With the passage and implementation of various bills, the head of state and adults have a lot of joy in their hearts -- Lao Tzu has finally put the beast of environmental protection in a cage first.

But God is fair, you put one of his pets in a cage? It doesn't matter, Lao Tzu will let another one out.

On this day, when Ximen Qing was running out of the smoky refining field and getting into the woods next to him to breathe in the fresh plasma air, he suddenly flew like a horse, and Huo Shanpo Wang Dingliu came. After just one glance at him, Ximen Qing found that the deployment of Wang Dingliu's facial features today was arranged in accordance with the pattern of the funeral committee, and he couldn't help but feel that Ge Deng's heart jumped, but the expression on his face remained the same: "What's the matter?" ”

Sure enough, Wang Dingliu issued an obituary with one mouth: "Lord Führer, it's not good, the Daimyo's Mansion is full of water!" ”

Ximenqing almost jumped up when he heard this, but he immediately reacted, if he broke the high jump record of the Chinese Federation and could make the water retreat, he would immediately jump with a parachute on his back and go without rope.

Therefore, Ximenqing continued to change his face, and still asked in a very peaceful voice: "Tell me about it!" ”

Seeing Ximen Qing so calm, Wang Dingliu's heart also settled down a little, and he was no longer so up and down. It's just that in the end, it is still in a state of panic and inertia, and when you speak, there is always something that you can't do.

"My lord, not long ago, Lord Liang Shijie left the Daimyo's Mansion and entered the central ministries and commissions, and the Daimyo's Mansion Concession was stationed by the Khitans. But it is definitely God who hates the Khitan and is our Great Song Dynasty...... No, no, no! It's the feud of our Chinese Federation, and I don't know how to do it, so there was an autumn flood coming, and the Zhanghe River skyrocketed! The dikes were all papier-mâché, and there were countless breaches along the way, and they were washed everywhere into the white ground......"

Ximenqing listened and walked outside the forest, he knew that An's birthday was over today, although these days of smoke and hard work are not a peaceful day.

However, watching the copper coins and silver ingots of the new country enter the national market in batches from their own hands, the feeling is much stronger than hearing about the flood. But now, we must say goodbye to this satisfaction and plunge into the damn water!

Coming to the edge of the forest, Ximenqing closed his eyes and took a deep breath like a long whale, then exhaled sharply, and when he opened his eyes, the cold light in his eyes burst out.

His horse was brought to him just right.

Ximen Qing smiled at Ju'an, who was leading the horse: "You almost made me wait!" ”

Ju'an didn't know that something big had happened, so he reminded himself: "Master, Madame said, I have to wait for you to go back to the house for dinner today!" ”

Before the words fell, his eyes flickered, and Ximen Qingzao urged the horse to run out of his eye socket.

Juan was startled, and just shouted: "Why is it so fast?" ”

Wang Dingliu next to him had also already flown on the horse, and the reins flickered: "The Daimyo's Mansion is flooding, can you not be happy?" ”

With a sound of "driving", Wang Dingliu also ran away.

Juan screamed, held his head, and wailed, "It's over! I can't go back to dinner today! Madame and Xiaoyu want to blame me for being useless! "In the heart of this little guy who has grown up a little, it's not a matter for the Daimyo's Mansion to send a lot of water? As long as his grandfather stretched out a little finger and swiped it gently, the big opening was also blocked.

Ximenqing himself is not as confident as Ju An, and he says that the bystanders are clear, but in fact, many times the bystanders are more blind than the authorities. Ximen Qing beat his horse like flying, but saw that the roadside post station officials had erected urgent warning flags, and some people blew horns that heralded the occurrence of great events - this was to remind the people not to get in the way, because at any time there may be pegasus or convoy passing by, and if they were hit and killed at this time, they would die in vain.

Since such a warning signal was formulated, it was also the first time it was used, and Ximenqing's heart was heavy, it seemed that this time the flood in the Daimyo's Mansion was really extraordinary! This is exactly what it is:

If you don't make people's hearts desired, you don't expect that Providence will be ruthless. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
