Chapter 415: Business, You Know

Fan Li's attitude surprised everyone, including Xiang Chong.

But listening to his full mouth, Xiang Chong only regarded the empress as strong, forcing Fan Li to bow his head and admit it.

"Hey, hey!"

"One thing descends one thing, Fan Li, you also have times when you are oppressed?"

Xiang Chong was full of joy, praised Fan Liyitong for the first time, and then announced his retirement from the dynasty.

"Jin Gong!"

"Jin Gong stays!"

"Duke Jin, today's matter ......"

After retreating from the court, Fan Li was about to return home, but he was surrounded by Jiuqing and other officials.

The ministers protested to him, and the core idea was only one content: to use five years of taxes as military expenses, which was too expensive!

"Everyone, don't be impatient."

Fan Li looked unhurried.

Seeing him so calm, the uneasy mood of the ministers really calmed down a little.

"Ladies and gentlemen, my duke has already said in the court, and my duke will handle this matter personally, so you don't have to worry."

"But ......" There were still people who were not at ease, and asked in a low voice, "Duke Jin, did you compromise because the empress was strong and afraid of her ***?"

What Wei?

Fan Wei thought, you can't talk nonsense, Yaoguang and I don't have a dime of personal affairs.

"Don't worry, everybody."

"When it comes to cultivation, a hundred Fan Li is not as good as Yaoguang."

"But when it comes to doing business, a hundred Yaoguang is not as good as Fan Li."

After Fan Li finished speaking, he smiled and patted the shoulders of several old ministers.

"But ......," the old minister Xiang Liang worried, "Da Chu has a lot of taxes a year, I'm afraid I can't hide it from Empress Yaoguang. How can it be fraudulent that the amount of tax revenue for five years should be collected and sent to Daci as soon as possible?"

The ministers all thought that Fan Li wanted to falsify the data.

He shook his head.

"Data fraud, of course, can't hide it from Empress Yaoguang."

"What this duke has prepared for Daci is indeed a wealth comparable to the five years of taxation of Dachu."

The ministers' faces changed greatly!

"Gong Jin, how does this work?!"

Seeing this, Fan Li still smiled easily.

"Don't worry, everyone."

"A month later, Da Chu will issue two currencies, [Treasure Banknote] and [Spirit Stone Coupon], which can be exchanged for gold and silver or spirit stones equivalent to the face value."

"Half a year after the issuance of the two currencies in Dachu, this prince will use the [treasure banknotes] and [spirit stone coupons] to make up the amount of tax for five years and deliver them to the Daci Dynasty."

The ministers were confused.

Issuing currency?

Exchange the equivalent of gold, silver and spirit stones?

Sounds convenient, but what's the difference?

Isn't Da Chu going to pay five years of taxes as a price?

"Jin Gong ......"

Xiang Liang still wanted to persuade, but was stopped by Fan Li.

"Don't worry."

"Don't worry, everybody."

"I just want to teach young Daci a lesson, a financial lesson called 'Inflation'.

A month later.

The Great Chu official suddenly announced the issuance of [treasure banknotes] and [spirit stone coupons].

The people of Chu felt very novel, but they were afraid to try.

On the first day of the currency issuance, there was not a single successful transaction of new currency in the Chu market.

But the next day, Fan's firm issued an important notice.

All industries under the commercial bank recognize the new currency trading function.

Anyone with [Treasure Money] or [Spirit Stone Coupon] can trade all commodities in Fan's Trading House.

At the same time, the Qian Zhuang under the command of Fan's Commercial Bank announced that it recognized the savings, investment, and lending functions of [treasure banknotes] and [spirit stone coupons].

The official Dachu and Fan's firm will use [treasure banknotes] and [spirit stone coupons] as the only currency for paying salaries from now on.

At this point, the two currencies officially began to circulate in Dachu.

……

…………

"Eldest sister, look, this is the [Treasure Money] and [Spirit Stone Coupon] of the Chu State."

The Holy Lord of Jinde placed two paper tickets on the imperial table.

"This is a silver treasure banknote, with a denomination of one tael, which can be exchanged for one tael of silver in any money bank in Dachu, and you can also directly buy goods worth one tael of silver."

"The [Spirit Stone Coupon] is just as easy to use."

"Treasure storage is expensive, and those poor people who can't afford to buy storage boxes are now trading in portable treasure money."

Empress Yaoguang was slightly stunned.

She picked up the two paper tickets and looked at them for a long time, and the Holy Lord of Jinde next to her continued to speak.

"No wonder the country of Chu is rich, although Fan Li's kid is hateful, he does have some brains, and he can come up with such things as treasure money and spirit stone coupons."

The Empress put the two paper tickets back on the table.

She was silent for a long time, and then suddenly spoke, "Can Daci imitate treasure money and spirit stone coupons?"

As soon as these words came out, the Holy Lord of Jinde and the Holy Lord of Miaoyin were both wide-eyed!

Imitation?

The meaning of the eldest sister is by no means to implement the Daci version of the new currency, but to simply counterfeit the currency of the Chu State.

If it can be imitated successfully, doesn't it mean how much gold and spirit stones are needed?

The idea is ...... It's so vicious!

Gold and spirit stones are both inherently rare things, otherwise where would the value come from?

Forgery, but there is no limit to the number of forgeries.

No matter how rich the Chu State is, sooner or later it will be hollowed out by Great Mercy!

The Holy Lord of Jinde swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and only said for a long time, "Eldest sister, why don't we try?"

"Hmm."

A month later, the Holy Lord of Jinde pleaded guilty to Empress Yaoguang.

"Eldest sister, younger sister is incompetent and can't imitate Chu Guobao banknotes and spirit stone coupons."

The empress was surprised when she heard this.

"Fan Li's Yuan Infant Realm, what he can do, you can't do?"

Kinder listened with shame on his face.

"Eldest sister, this matter has nothing to do with cultivation."

"It's all Fan Li's bastard, he actually promoted anti-counterfeiting science propaganda of counterfeit banknotes in Chu State."

"It turns out that there are anti-counterfeiting marks on the treasure banknotes and spirit stone coupons, including patterns, colors, numbers, etc. With multiple anti-counterfeiting measures, we can't imitate them at all."

"And because it involves their own net worth and property, the people of Chu are actively learning, and now everyone knows how to identify counterfeit banknotes."

Empress Yaoguang was silent.

But after a short silence, the empress sneered again.

"Okay."

"Fan Li can ensure that the currency cannot be counterfeited, but it also makes it easier for me."

"Originally, I was worried that he would do something about the tax offsetting of military expenses for five years. Now, I only need the treasure money and spirit stone coupons of the Chu Kingdom, see how he copes?"

Kinder's eyes lit up as he listened.

"The eldest sister is wise!"

"As long as we get the money, Daci will lack any supplies in the future, so we will go to the Chu State and buy whatever we want!"

Empress Yaoguang smiled and nodded.

That's exactly what she was going to do!

……

…………

Time flickered, and another half a year passed.

Fan Mansion, Jiangshan Pavilion.

The folds piled up in front of Fan Li, but he immediately found out the most critical ones.

"The treasure banknotes and spirit stone coupons that offset the tax for five years have been accepted by the Daci Dynasty and confirmed to be correct."

"The Emperor of the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Han and Wu, listen to the advice of the Duke of Jin and establish an adjustable currency exchange mechanism."

"The banknote printing factory has trained 1,000 printing workers, and the printing capacity has been greatly increased."

"Empress Yaoguang has declared war on Shi Jingjiao, and the army is about to set off!"

"Domestic market price consultation, rice costs two cents of silver for one stone......

Looking at the last fold, Fan Li smiled.

The market is very cruel, does the empress know?
