Currency made of metal has been used in this land for thousands of years, and if you want to exchange it all for paper money, you will inevitably go through a long world.

But Zhu Gaoyi didn't want to wait, and it would inevitably take a lot of time for the people of the whole country to take the initiative to accept it psychologically, and Zhu Gaofu couldn't wait so long.

Historically, the main reason for the acceptance of paper money is the development of commerce and capital, and the huge transaction volume has made carrying metal money a heavy burden, so large paper banknotes have become a trend.

This was the beginning of the use of paper money.

Later, paper banknotes were widely accepted by the public because they were lightweight, easy to carry and trade.

The current Ming Dynasty does not have this foundation, but Zhu Gaoyao wants to quickly implement paper money, so there can only be one way.

"I will abolish Yongle Tongbao in one month, and after a month and a half, I will recycle all Yongle Tongbao at market price!"

That is to force paper money!

This may backfire, but in the face of the threat of imitating Daming Tongbao, Zhu Gaoyao can't wait so long!

Moreover, the implementation of paper currency is also a good foreshadowing for later commercial development.

Moreover, paper money also has a very important advantage, metal money consumes a lot of resources, but paper money does not.

You don't need to use your current gold and silver reserves to make money, just take some paper and ink and print it, compared to the value of paper money, it is completely zero cost.

Moreover, the right to manufacture these currencies is completely in the hands of the state, and after the liberalization of the loan policy, the localities can make as much money as they want.

Of course, if the development is good, it can also be appropriately increased according to this ratio.

Paper money is inevitable to promote the rapid development of the economy!

"It's a good thing that Your Majesty has implemented a new currency, but this is a bit too hasty, and it will be changed to a new currency in a month, which I'm afraid will be difficult for the local people and officials to accept for a while!"

At this time, many new faces began to admonish, they were all just entering the court, even if they had some lofty ambitions in their hearts, they were ready to perform, unlike those old fritters who only watched words and looks, saw the wind and steered, and could not put forward some useful suggestions.

In the face of such an impatient emperor, they naturally stepped forward.

"No, that's not fast enough!"

Those imitation Yongle Tongbao, Zhu Gaoyi naturally could not mention it on the tower, because once it was said from the emperor's mouth, it would greatly reduce the credibility of Yongle Tongbao, and it would also be a heavy blow to the current Ming Dynasty.

What's more, now that the treasury is empty, the entire Ming Dynasty is in ruins, and it is the time when money is urgently needed, and Zhu Gaojiao also needs to use this batch of paper money to develop infrastructure and revitalize the national economy.

"The manufacture of paper money is a major matter of the state, and no one shall have any obstacle to the production of paper money!"

Zhu Gao's voice was sonorous and unswerving, making it difficult for the ministers below to disobey.

As if to declare that I am the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you courtiers must not object to whatever I say.

Zhu Gaoyao looked at the courtiers below who were speechless.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since there is no objection to this matter, then it is decided!"

"My Emperor Shengming!"

At this time, Zhu Gaoyi looked at the eunuch beside him and gestured with his eyes.

"There is a play, nothing to retreat!"

At this time, a young official below finally took a step forward after repeated operations and said,

"Your Majesty, Weichen has something to report!"

"What's the matter? But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has the courage to speak, although my Ming Dynasty looks peaceful and stable, but the frontier is full of dangers!"

Zhu Gaoyi's eyes lit up when he saw this young official, although he and Su Wu and Yang Shiqi had planned yesterday that one of them would propose the border crisis, and the other would come up with a solution.

However, this young man was not in the plan!

Could it be that he deduced Da Ming's current situation just by relying on the information he had now?

And he was able to withstand the pressure of the ministers above the court and tell this matter, which is good!

Seeing such an accomplished official, Zhu Gaoyi was happy from the bottom of his heart.

After saying this, the young official looked upwards and looked at Zhu Gaoyao's face with his spare eyes.

After all, the companion is like a tiger, although he is young, he is still a little bitter, but he still understands the most basic truth, speaking in front of the emperor to save his life and persuade the emperor, you must always observe the emperor's face, otherwise even if you are eloquent, the emperor is not angry, and in the end you still can't drag the fate of being ga.

"Oh, why do you say that?"

On Zhu Gao's face, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, which made the young official's heart nervous.

"In fact, it is not difficult to draw a conclusion, Your Majesty fought for many years when he was young, and he must have consumed a lot of national strength of the Ming Dynasty. Coupled with the civil war of the vassal kings at the time of the first emperor, the Ming Dynasty has been beaten to pieces! ”

During the Yongle period, although it has been greatly recuperated, the wounds caused by several years of conquest are difficult to erase for decades or even hundreds of years!

What's more, during the Yongle period, Zhu Gaoxi led the Ming army and collided with the army of the northern nomads many times.

Coupled with the instability of the territory, it will take a lot of money and energy to consolidate it.

It's easy to fight the country, but it's hard to defend the country!

"What's your name? Where are you now?"

"Your Majesty, the official name is Li Youtian, and he is currently in the left and right of the six branches!"

Li Youtian stood at the back of the ministers, with his current position, coupled with today's ceremony, many officials were specially invited in, so he was barely able to enter this Taihe Palace.

Or a guy who knows how to seize the moment!

Zhu Gaoyao couldn't help but glance at this Li Youtian Gao, but the name made Zhu Gaojiao a little uneasy.

"Go on!"

Zhu Gaoyi wanted to continue to listen to this person's analysis.

"Your Majesty's prestige has already spread far and wide, and those foreign laughing boys who are pressed are out of breath, but Your Majesty knows that the more this is the case, the more it can arouse the resistance of those foreign barbarians!"

"Your Majesty, the minister has a childhood friend, who is now a foreign merchant, and according to the news he inquired in the western tribes, he found that those foreign tribes have been in close contact during this time, and their behavior is somewhat abnormal."

Li Youtian breathed a sigh of conviction, and finally said his conclusion.

"Therefore, Weichen guesses that these foreign clans are very likely to have colluded and are ready to launch an attack on our Ming Dynasty at some point in the future!" (End of chapter)
