Chapter 366: Pepper and Pepper
As for the ......
What is said must be in line with socio-economic development.
All I can say is......
Li Chong didn't know either.
Anyway, he's just talking nonsense.
Of course!
Although he didn't study economics, he still knew something.
For example, there are reserves for what needs to be paid, and there are banknotes that need to be issued through banks, usually through lending.
Of course, there are also those who go to the bank to deposit money through ordinary people.
If you change to Datang.
It is the common people who deposit the copper money on their bodies into the money bank.
But......
There shouldn't be any people in the Tang Dynasty who are really so stupid.
Deposit the copper coin in the bank, and then exchange it for a piece of paper yourself.
Let's be honest......
Whether this can be popularized is also a question.
Li Shize's side, after being instructed by Li Chengqian, also began to work on related matters.
Words to get started......
This must also be asked for Li Chong's opinion.
Li Chong asked him to start with paper.
Let's first understand what kind of paper is difficult to obtain, and at least 99.999 percent of people who need Datang are difficult to obtain.
Such paper is eligible for use.
Wait for the paper to be solved, and then go to solve the ink.
In terms of ink, it is best to keep it for a long time and it is not easy to fade.
This is the case......
Perhaps the experience of silk dyeing in this area may be more abundant.
Of course!
Li Shi can't use his brains and copy other people's directly, it is best to have a little more understanding and innovation on the basis of the other party.
Li Shi wrote down all these things to pay attention to.
Subsequently......
According to his own Aya ideas, he solved it little by little.
Let's be honest......
To accomplish these things, connections are also very important.
Otherwise......
You don't even know anyone, so how do you know where to find good paper?
To this end......
Li Shi also had to go on a business trip for the next nine months.
In this way, I visited some famous paper production places in Datang, and also learned a lot of inside stories about this industry, so I slowly had my own ideas about this paper.
Next......
It is to try to take advantage of the research personality of a group of colleagues in the Academy of Sciences, and then set up a project.
Maybe they're going to try to come up with a new kind of paper on their own.
Seeing Li Shi was so grinding.
Should I say it or not, this character is very good!
Nine months later, Li Chengqian asked Li Shize how the banknotes were being studied.
Hearing Li Shize's answer, saying that it had just begun, Li Chengqian was also speechless.
That's it!
Whatever, and when it comes to anti-counterfeiting, it can only be said that it doesn't hurt to be cautious.
Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but look up to Li Shi.
I think this person is still a bit steady.
……
this year.
The number of goods imported and exported by Datang has increased again.
Of course!
Prosperity must decline!
At this time, compared with the popularity of pepper in Datang at the beginning, pepper is not so popular now.
If you say one, you don't understand the laws of economics, and you only know how to blindly transport a large amount of pepper to Datang.
But he didn't care whether Datang had such a big market.
Another thing is that pepper is not as strong as the American crop.
When the pepper appeared, the pepper had to stand aside.
Even......
On the streets of Yangzhou, those who sell sweet potatoes are more lively than those who sell pepper.
Of course!
Pepper is a high-end spice, and there are not many people who can afford it, while sweet potatoes are street food, which is different.
In fact...... Li Zhi also wants to make a lot of money with sweet potatoes.
But the question is......
If this thing is sold at a high price, there will not be many customers, but it will not be easy to sell.
Other than that......
Sweet potatoes are also not as easy to store as pepper.
I feel like that's all that matters!
The current price of chili pepper is almost the same as that of pepper.
Merely......
In order to seize the pepper market, the price of chili pepper is a little lower than that of pepper.
Right now......
The homes of some nobles in Yangzhou City are not spicy or happy.
I feel that there is less chili, and whatever I eat here is a little unexciting.
This has also led to some problems in many people's butts.
And then......
In terms of traditional Chinese medicine, there must be a saying.
It was once rumored that this thing was poisonous and should not be eaten more.
But......
This is definitely the work of Cochin's side.
At this time, it was inevitable that there would be some friction in some areas.
Including the control of Southeast Asia, but also the competition of goods.
Of course!
This friction does not mean that it has reached the point where either you die or I die.
All I can say is......
Jiaozhi looks at Liaodong unpleasantly, that's for sure.
It's like this pepper, when there were no peppers before, everyone was more willing to buy pepper.
But with chili peppers, the pepper is a bit unsellable.
That Jiaozhi must look at Liaodong unpleasantly.
Because you've affected my market.
But!
Say so!
If you want to say whether you want to eat chili peppers here, then the answer is very certain.
The question of this price can only be negotiated with each other.
But in general, it should be peppers that have some advantages.
Of course!
You can also take the peppers back and grow them yourself.
That's it, if Jiaozhi also sells chili peppers to Datang, then I don't know if Jiaozhi will blush.
Datang's side.
Li Chengqian also grows chili peppers himself.
Merely......
Li Chengqian planted peppers, which was more for viewing in the garden.
Li Zhi's side, in order to prevent peppers from being planted by others, he must have taken certain precautions.
For example, he only sells chili products that have undergone secondary processing, not raw chili peppers.
But to be honest, Li Zhi probably didn't realize this problem at first.
So......
In fact, on the Datang side, some chili seeds have been circulated.
Merely......
The spread of this is extremely small.
Next......
As it spreads, there will probably be more and more of it.
Li Chong once heard a saying that chili peppers are the food of the poor, and this statement, I have to say, is very reasonable.
And......
In terms of the yield of chili peppers, one is still quite a lot.
Of course!
In fact, even if someone really grows peppers with the trend, Li Zhi doesn't have to worry too much, after all, when it comes to making money, it is still necessary to carry out large-scale planting, and in terms of large-scale planting, Liao Guo should not be afraid of anyone.
In this era, there are still a few people who have the strength to carry out large-scale planting.
Li Chengqian can actually plant, but it's just ......
The Tang Dynasty has always not competed with the people for profit, nor with the vassal states, so Li Chengqian is often not very good at interfering in these.
Anyway......
If he doesn't plant, Li Zhi will also send him.
