Zhu Jianji saw the expressions of these two people, and knew that they didn't realize what benefits they had brought to the Ming Dynasty since the Ming treasure banknotes were promoted to the whole of Asia, and even the South and Western Oceans were popular.

Said slowly: "Chen Shangshu, over there, you can print an extra 100 million taels of Ming Bao banknotes this year." ”

Chen Xun was stunned, "100 million taels? ”

Your Majesty, you are not wrong?

100 million taels of treasure banknotes can indeed expand the capacity of the two houses, and there is even more than that.

However, the flow of 100 million taels of Ming treasure banknotes into the people, will immediately cause currency depreciation, when the treasure money in the hands of the people is worthless, the national credit of the Ming treasure banknotes will be reduced, and a large number of people will go to the bank to exchange gold and silver, and there will be a run.

Even if there is no run, the money in the hands of the people is worthless, isn't this sucking the blood of the people.

Zhu Jianji said: "That's right, 100 million taels." ”

Chen Xungang wanted to advise.

Zhu Jianji said: "I know your worries, of course I will not suck the blood of our Ming people, how can I use the Ming treasure money to gather the wealth of the people, rest assured, this 100 million taels will not be invested in the country." ”

Chen Xun was at a loss.

Zhu Jianji said: "Does Daming Bank have a large reserve of Daming treasure banknotes?" ”

Chen Xun nodded, "Yes." ”

Zhu Jianji said: "In this way, the household department will print an additional 100 million taels of silver, and then the household department will go to the office to contact the major maritime trade houses along the coast, and use them as middlemen to spend this 100 million taels of silver in the South Seas and the West, no matter what the materials are, they will buy them back in large quantities, especially the main thing, is to buy a large amount of grain from the South and Western Oceans and transport it back, and even let the Northeast Chengxuan Political Envoy go to the Rus Principality to buy it, in this way, our 100 million taels of treasure banknotes, will it temporarily flow abroad, will not cause the domestic currency to depreciate?" ”

Chen Xun nodded, "The truth is this, but the question is that these Daming treasure banknotes will flow back to China sooner or later?" ”

Zhu Jianji shook his head, "It won't necessarily flow back." ”

And said: "With the continuous rise of my Ming status in the world, the credit of the Ming treasure banknote is strong, and the Ming Dynasty is the center of the world in the future, of course, my heavenly kingdom has always been the center of the world, but this is different from the past, because now the Ming treasure banknote is circulating, the Ming Dynasty as the center of the world, we use the treasure money to buy materials from foreign countries, so the same, foreign countries can also use the treasure money to buy materials between each other for settlement, in other words, the Ming treasure banknote will slowly become the world's currency settlement system." If I remember correctly, this truth was explained to the people in the household department at the beginning of the promotion of the Daming treasure banknote. ”

Chen Xun fell silent, he was doing this, of course he could understand Zhu Jianji's words.

But there is still a question: "Your Majesty, but after the Daming treasure banknote becomes the currency and circulates all over the world, won't gold and silver no longer circulate?" ”

Zhu Jianji said with a smile: "You may not know that in this war on the Indochina Peninsula, although our Ming Dynasty is still open to the government and people of the Indochina Peninsula, as long as they are willing to exchange, they can still exchange treasure money for gold and silver in the Ming Dynasty, but the fact is that there are not many people from the four countries of the Indochina Peninsula who come to the Ming Dynasty to exchange, do you know why?" ”

Chen Xun was puzzled, "Why?" ”

Zhu Jianji said: "Because the credit of the Daming treasure banknote has been established, and the people of the Indochina Peninsula have found that even if the two countries go to war, the treasure banknote can be freely converted, so even if they are destroyed, the Daming treasure banknote in their hands still has monetary value?" ”

He added: "This further gives people all over the world a signal that the Daming treasure banknote has a stable monetary system value like gold and silver, so the Daming treasure banknote that we flow into foreign countries is actually gold and silver." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled, and couldn't help but ask Chen Xun, "Chen Shangshu, come, let me ask you a question, if you are the king of a country, and your country is not very strong, and it may be embezzled by neighboring countries at any time, but you and your subjects have a lot of money, in such a situation, how can you and the rich people in your country ensure the safety of your wealth?" ”

Chen Xun was asked.

He really doesn't know how to do it, because the country is dead, so no amount of money is useless.

Zhu Jianji said with a smile: "At this time, isn't it time for our Daming Bank to appear?" ”

Chen Xun made sense, "Your Majesty's meaning, those royal families and rich people will deposit gold and silver in the Daming Bank, and they only use Daming treasure banknotes on weekdays, so that even if they are gone, as long as the people are still there, they still have wealth?" ”

Zhu Jianji smiled: "Yes." ”

He also said: "So at the same time as printing more treasure money, Daming Bank also wants to establish a gold reserve system: this is not a way to deposit, but just a reserve system, for the world's states, let them deposit gold and silver in Daming, and Daming only charges a little storage fees and handling fees, in this way, there will be more gold and silver into Daming." And in order to let these states rest assured that they will deposit gold and silver in the Daming Bank, this time on the Indochina Peninsula, the household department sent people to Nanzhang to lobby the Nanzhang royal family to carry out this operation, and they can promise the Nanzhang royal family that as long as they are willing to cooperate, even if Nanzhang is destroyed, the Nanzhang royal family will not follow the mistakes of the royal family of Zhancheng, I am willing to let the Nanzhang royal family have a way to live, and even allow them to come to Daming to enjoy the rich life brought by their wealth! ”

As long as this operation in Nanzhang is successful, this is a living example, in the future, all countries are willing to store gold and silver in the Daming Bank, so that the whole world's gold and silver will continue to flow into the Ming Dynasty.

Chen Xun was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help but say: "It's a coquettish operation!" ”

On the one hand, it is necessary to destroy other people's kingdoms.

On the other hand, they also threaten others that if they do not save the gold and silver, they will destroy your people.

The key is that under this operation, the Nanzhang royal family really doesn't have many choices.

And this did not affect Daming's attitude towards Nanzhang's war.

On the other hand, when the gold and silver flowed into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, then the Ming Dynasty had unlimited space for economic operation, and could spend money on domestic construction as much as possible.

The purchasing power of Daming treasure banknotes in the world can also ensure that Daming materials are abundant.

In this way, the common people can also become rich.

In other words, once Your Majesty's operation is truly realized, then the blood-sucking ability of the Da Ming treasure will be terrifyingly enhanced - frantically sucking the blood of the whole world to raise Da Ming.

Well, there's a basic element to this.

That's the army!

The army of the Ming Dynasty must have the ability to strike at any place in the world, so as to ensure that it has the ability to maintain the value and credit system of the currency of the Ming Dynasty.

No wonder......

No wonder His Majesty wants to build the South China Sea Fleet.

Chen Xun suddenly became excited, "Your Majesty, did you have this idea when you first promoted the Daming Treasure Banknote?" ”

Zhu Jianji laughed, "Otherwise? ”

This is all a copy of the experience of the beautiful country.
