"The minister also carried a few Dutch Kingdom silver coins minted by the Dutch today, and sent a few to the Ordnance Bureau to be calcined before, and found that there was a great deal of cat greasy in the middle."

After that, Bi Ziyan took out a few Dutch silver coins full of silver luster from his sleeve and handed them to Wang Chengen and presented them to Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen stared at the silver coin in front of him, its appearance was round but full of inconsistencies in the edges caused by process limitations, some larger, some smaller.

And although the silver coin has a silver luster, it can still be seen that there are other elements mixed in it, because the overall appearance is still a little dark and black.

Bi Ziyan on the side continued.

"The silver coins minted by the Dutch were the most acceptable uniform trade currency among the overseas nations, and after calcination, the minister found that it was not pure silver."

"Rather, it is three parts lead and seven parts silver, and the craftsmen who minted these silver coins seem to have been lacking in craftsmanship, and did not use a uniform mechanical coinage, but used the pouring method to mint the coins, and the edges were somewhat uneven."

"And individual silver coins don't even reach .. The proportion of seven cents of silver is even only six cents of silver, and the lowest is only five and a half..."

Zhu Youzhen's eyes lit up, if this silver coin is minted, it represents one or two taels of silver, and it is mixed with cheap metals such as lead when it is minted.

Then the scattered silver is forged and produced into mixed silver coins.

Even if you look at seventy percent of the silver, the gross profit is as much as thirty percent.

And it can also be cycled, seven thousand taels of silver can now be worth ten thousand taels after forging.

He was moved.

But before that, Zhu Youzhen, as the emperor, wanted to set the main tone for this new batch of silver coins.

One of the most critical is the silver issue.

"According to Aiqing, how should the silver color of this Ming silver coin be determined?"

"Your Majesty, according to the minister's view, the current foreign trade of the Ming Dynasty is gradually increasing, and the people along the coast or in the port have also benefited a lot because of foreign trade.

"So according to the minister's view, I don't need to pretend to be a silver coin, only seventy percent, of course, in order to better circulate, there must be a standard silver coin with a face value of one or two silver, but also five coins, a silver coin is easy to use."

Bi Ziyan can be said to have said that Zhu Youzhen's heart is gone, after all, the higher the silver, the cost of minting will also increase accordingly.

Zhu Youzhen minted coins to make money, not to engage in charity, once the silver of the Ming Dynasty's silver coins was too high, then those shameless red-haired fans would naturally not let go of such a good opportunity to make a fortune.

will try their best to use the lower silver in their hands to buy goods in Daming, but if Daming has a unified system of silver coins, then if they want to fool the people in Daming again.

But it is not so easy, the Royal Bank of Daming will carry out a corresponding standardized silver evaluation of the silver coins in its hands, plus the manual cost and wear and tear of money to convert them into standard Daming silver coins.

At that time, the propaganda weapon of "Daming Monthly" will be used to establish the concept that only Daming silver coins can be recognized by the imperial court for all the people.

Then even if the Dutch or merchants from other countries want to take this opportunity to make some fuss on the Daming silver coins, I am afraid that they will kowtow.

"Then, Bi Ziyan and Li Ermin obey the order."

"The ministers are strict and respectful to the holy decree."

"Minister Li Ermin respectfully hears the holy decree."

The highly centralized imperial power has this advantage, and there is no need to consider whether the holy decree will be passed by the cabinet, otherwise what Zhu Youzhen said at the moment cannot be regarded as a holy decree.

At most, it is what the emperor said in a certain year and month, even if it falls on paper, it is at most called a decree.

"Daming Royal Bank and Daming Royal Taxation Bureau, commissioned the Ministry of Industry and the General Administration of Ordnance to produce, as soon as possible to come up with a silver coin system plan, in which the manufacturing means should abandon the perfusion method or the traditional wax mold method, handed over to the General Administration of Ordnance unified production manual machinery unified rolling."

"And the new silver coin should be considered for anti-counterfeiting measures, including but not limited to making some anti-counterfeiting measures around the silver coin, and at the same time announcing to the world after the silver coin is minted! Counterfeiters are guilty of the same crime as those who forged the original money! ”

Both of them in the audience were shocked!

What is the crime of forging treasure money, the forger will be beheaded, and the arrest of the person who is arrested after the lawsuit will be rewarded with 250 taels of silver, and the property of the prisoner will be given to the informant.

In other words, no matter how powerful the counterfeit family is, how rich the family property is, once it is reported for counterfeiting.

Everything goes to the person who reported it, so the whistleblower can almost make a windfall, and not only that, but there is also a reward of at least two hundred and fifty taels from the imperial court.

Isn't this an overnight rich?

"Obey."

"Obey."

After the proper arrangement at this time, Zhu Youzhen also relaxed down, and today's Ming court can be said to want grain and grain, money and money, and an army.

With money, food and guns in his hands, let alone Huang Taiji this time, even if Li Express, who intended to rebel in Shaanxi, came together, I am afraid it would be difficult to resist Zhu Youzhen's methods.

The material conditions are abundant, and Zhu Youzhen has more time to think about other problems, and the Huaxia Library has been stored by Zhu Youzhen for a long time, and many of the brands that have been turned out are useless things.

After the update, although there are points, the points cannot be directly exchanged for the books you want for a while.

It's about the number of times to redeem more flops, and sometimes Zhu Youzhen is suspicious, even if he flips all the nine cards in front of him at once.

There may not be any books he wants.

But you have to try, don't you?

So I saw him beckon Wang Chengen out, and he summoned the system interface of the Huaxia Library in the Dongnuan Pavilion alone, and gently put his finger on the floating panel in front of him.

Look at the lottery points accumulated over the months in the lower right corner.

[Current Available Points: 522 Points!] 】

Of these, only about 222 points are the settlement points obtained by the development of the Ming Dynasty over the past few months, and 300 of them are the war points awarded by the system after the previous defeat of Huang Taiji.

The appearance of war points is also one of the main reasons why Zhu Youzhen is willing to expand the army again this time, and it is not one of the main reasons why he is watching the fire from across the strait.

It's a matter of success or failure!

Zhu Youzhen has already calculated, according to the rules of the system, you can use the doubled points to turn over an additional card each time, and if you want to open nine cards at the same time.

Then you need... 511 points!

Enough! Open Draw!
