Chapter Forty-Eight: Printing Some Money to Spend
After one night, the husband and wife got back together, and Ji Ping didn't know if Jiang Li was pretending, anyway, he was a little gentler than before.
"It's dawn, go and get Linggu back!" Jiang Li helped Ji Ping put on his clothes and urged.
Ji Ping glared at him, and said angrily: "You want to come back after the things you sent out?" Am I shameless? Don't worry, I've got enough for you to eat. ”
The team members were training hard, but they always had a feeling of fear in their hearts, and the patriarch's wife standing on the side always stared at them viciously, as if they wanted to kill someone.
However, when they saw Ji Ping, it was not just as simple as fanaticism, but also a feeling of voluntary surrender in their hearts!
Ji Ping now sees that the clan is completely different from before, and with a sweep, he can roughly perceive a series of information such as their luck and qualifications.
"The qualifications of the second dog and the third child are estimated to be twenty or thirty, which is too low, and the other team members are about the same." Ji Ping sighed, even if he used the blessing ability of the Xuanyuan Sword, I was afraid that he would have to pay a great price to help them improve to the point where they could cultivate.
Jiang Li's qualifications are much better, probably around sixty or seventy, no wonder he can get to where he is today with his own cultivation.
"I have to save up a little merit." Ji Ping now has an urgent feeling, if it is becoming more and more chaotic today, strange and strange are emerging in an endless stream, and he can't stand on it without strength.
Just as Ji Ping was watching his subordinates train, Ji was powerless and hurriedly walked over.
Ji Ping smiled when he saw him: "Clan Elder, what's the good thing, I'm very happy to see you?" ”
"Patriarch, you are leisurely, the old man is almost exhausted." Ji Xiao complained with a smile, "There is no steel, the two thousand catties you brought back last time are used up, except for our own 200 catties to build weapons, the remaining 1,800 catties are given to the mayor." ”
Ji Ping asked: "Our five catties are less than two catties for the mayor, will it be lighter?" ”
"It's not light, the clansmen's knives are according to the Tang knife, five catties are already very heavy, and generally about three catties. What's more, the steel you provide is harder and sharper, and 2 catties is enough. ”
Saying that, Ji Xiao asked someone to bring a cloth bag to Ji Ping: "A total of 5,000 oceans, and the mayor gave 270 taels of gold." ”
Ji Ping nodded and asked, "Is there anyone else who wants to buy it?" ”
"The patriarch is really like a god!" Ji Xiao said with a smile, "The team training teams in ten miles and eight villages need it, and it adds up to about 2,000, and according to the mayor, if it is used well, maybe other towns will also order it." ”
Ji Ping bowed slightly: "Are those blacksmiths reliable?" You can't just run away, do you? ”
"They dare!" Ji Xiao blew his beard and glared at him, "We didn't give them work, they had to drink the northwest wind, ten oceans a month, where to find such a good job." ”
That's good, Ji Ping is a little more relieved.
According to Ji Xiao, now that the village's finances are about to go bankrupt, Ji Ping has to hurry up to make money.
"I know, clan elder, tell those who need weapons that not only gold, but also high-grade wood, antiques, and anything of value is fine." Ji Ping said.
"Okay, patriarch, do you want the money of the red-haired devil? That's a pretty valuable thing. Ji Xiao asked.
"Red-haired devil's money? What's the use of that? Can it be spent? Ji Ping asked rhetorically.
"Yes." Unexpectedly, Ji Xiao gave a positive answer, "And it is much stronger than the value of the ocean." ”
"Don't." Ji Ping decisively refused, what was the use of what he wanted that thing, he thought it was a fake currency when he brought it back to Lanxing, and it couldn't be exchanged.
No, it's not okay to bring back Blue Star, what if you bring it from Blue Star? Coins are certainly not considered to be a technological product that affects the development of the Overworld, so it should be fine, right?
"How much can Europa's money be exchanged for?" Ji Ping asked.
"1 to 10, 1 English pound can be exchanged for 10 oceans, 3 dollars more gold." Jiang Li said, she saw that Ji Xiao didn't seem to know this problem.
Ji Ping asked again: "How about the liquidity?" ”
Jiang Li glanced at Ji Ping: "The world's largest currency, all countries are rushing to ask for it, how do you say the liquidity?" ”
"Oh, let's say, I have 100 million, a billion English pounds, can I spend it?" Ji Ping gave an example.
"Of course you can, but do you have it?" Jiang Li is a person who has attended a new-style school, and she is very skeptical that Ji Ping knows how much a billion English pounds are.
Ji Ping really doesn't know much, but he has an almighty Du Niang......
"The main world is about the same as Blue Star more than a hundred years ago, with a global GDP1500 of about 100 million pounds and a trade volume of about 10 billion." Taking advantage of the lunch break, Ji Ping returned to Lanxing and quickly inquired about the relevant data, "The pound is in circulation in the world, and no one will check it one by one, but the issuance of banknotes is only tens of billions, which is a little less." ”
Ji Ping thought about it, called Bai Feng's phone, and explained the requirements.
"Counterfeit money? Or the pound and the dollar in the 20s of the last century? What's the use of that? Bai Feng didn't understand Ji Ping's request, but he still agreed, "Okay, I'll arrange someone to contact you, and I'll send you the price list later." ”
I don't know how long it will take Bai Feng to get it done, Ji Ping first went to the gold shop to sell the gold, a total of 4.75 million. This time he didn't go to Bai Xiaoxue, so as not to explain it, after all, he had already started a family.
It took about an hour or two for the news from Bai Feng's side to come over, and it seemed that the manufacturer was not easy to contact.
The average price of pounds is 2 yuan, and the average price of US dollars is 1.8 yuan, this price, Ji Ping didn't expect it to be so cheap.
"Don't do too much for the first time, get pounds first, and get 10,000 pieces of each of the three denominations." Ji Ping calculated, 10,000 pieces of each type of 10/20/50 face value, the cost is 60,000 yuan, worth 900,000 pounds, 9 million oceans, 15 tons of gold......
At that time, England printed about 10 billion banknotes alone, equivalent to 150,000 tons of gold, which is twice the total amount mined in the world!
Seeing this number, Ji Ping scolded in his heart, England was really rich in that era, this is harvesting leeks around the world!
Printed pounds will not be picked up until tomorrow because of the need to prepare paper materials that have been used that year......
Ji Ping directly ordered three million catties of grain and ten tons of carbon steel this time, an ancient model of forging steam machine tools and a hundred tons of coal, although these things exist in the main world, but transportation and purchase are a big problem, far less convenient than in Lanxing, and they can all be prepared in one day.
"There's no money again." Three million were spent on grain and steel, 200,000 steam machine tools, 100,000 tons of thermal coal, and only one million working capital was left in hand, and six million fertilizer seeds would be paid in half a month, Alexander.
The old steam machine is very simple to use, that is, it is an evolution of human manpower, and there is no need for a special technician, as long as even those blacksmiths can easily use it according to the instructions.
"The clan elder, the weapons built not only collect gold, but also antiques and high-grade wood, and they must be high-end goods, and those tattered ones are not good." Ji Ping handed over the machinery to the old Ji Xiao of the three clans to take care of, after all, the "industry" of Jijia Village was managed by him.
Ji Ping's equipment belonged to the obsolete goods more than a hundred years ago, but it was surprising in Ji Xiao's eyes.
"I'm afraid only Europa can produce such a powerful machine." Ji Xiao exclaimed, "It is estimated that there are no such good things in the three towns." ”
Each of these three old fellows is more shrewd than the other, and they never ask where they come from.
"Patriarch, gold in troubled times, antiques are falling in price now, you won't smash your hands, right?" Ji Xiao reminded.
Ji Ping smiled: "It's okay, you can just change it, the royal use is the best, porcelain, calligraphy and painting, jade are fine, bronze is not needed." ”
"Understood." Ji Xiao nodded and agreed.
Ten tons of carbon steel is 20,000 catties, which can build 5,000-10,000 weapons, which are worth at least 1,500 taels in gold, but Ji Ping is worried that Ping'an Town is afraid that there will be a gold shortage soon, after all, there are still too few people hoarding gold, and they are all in the hands of those big families.
"The food will also be distributed, and it is still half short, so I will get it again next month." Ji Ping continued, "How is the growth of the second crop rice? ”
"Very good!" Speaking of this, Ji Xiao became interested, "Patriarch, I am also a person who has planted land all my life, I have never seen such a good seed, what you said is a thousand catties and an acre, I see, there should be no problem." But ......"
"What's wrong?" Ji Ping saw Ji Xiao's face change and asked.
"Some people in other villages began to regret it, saying that this time we took a big advantage and bought their 1,000 catties of land at a price of 300 catties." Ji Xiao said, "Fortunately, there are not many people like this, but it's not good to spread out." ”
Ji Pingle was happy, he thought that such a person would appear, and said disapprerovitously: "It's not a big problem, tell the Great Elder that if someone wants to return the field, it's okay, let them pay for the seeds, and then return the grain and plant it themselves." Fertilizers and pesticides are not supplied. ”
"Understood." Ji Xiao nodded and said, "Patriarch rest assured, for this kind of Great Elder, he has experience, and he will definitely regret it." ”
