Chapter 327: Zhu Di: How did the treasure money become so worthless?

Zhu Di's brows furrowed, and there was a hint of irritability, "How can this be?" ”

The shopkeeper also saw that something was wrong, and cautiously asked tentatively, "This nobleman, do you still want to buy sea fish?" ”

"Shut up!"

Zhu Di rebuked directly.

The shopkeeper's face sank, as the shopkeeper of the Yanwang Mansion, he was not afraid of any nobles in the Beiping Mansion.

"This nobleman, all the fish shops in Beiping Mansion are all shops in Yanwang Mansion, if you don't come to buy sea fish, please don't delay the villain's shop to do business!"

Zhu Di's face was suddenly full of anger.

"Your Highness is angry!"

Seeing this, Guo An hurriedly walked in outside the door.

"Your Highness? Guo Changshi? ”

Seeing Guo An, the shopkeeper was shocked, and then knelt down towards Zhu Di with a panicked face.

Similarly, the shopkeepers who surrounded him on both sides also knelt down with frightened faces.

"Please also ask Your Highness for forgiveness, the villain doesn't know that His Highness is here, and he has no eyes, please punish His Highness!"

Zhu Di glanced at it and ignored the shopkeeper.

Guo An hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Just stand aside and don't disturb Your Highness!" ”

The shopkeeper cautiously glanced at Zhu Di, and found that Zhu Di ignored him, and immediately hurriedly arched his hand, "Thank you Your Highness for your kindness, thank you Guo Changshi!" ”

Immediately, he hurriedly stood aside,

However, he was still very stiff and did not dare to move.

"Guo Qing, let's go shopping again!"

After a while, Zhu Di's face returned to normal.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Immediately, Zhu Di took Guo An and walked out.

The shopkeeper and a few shop guys hurriedly knelt down to send each other off.

And Zhu Di walked out of the fish shop, but still didn't say a word, and walked forward vigorously.

Every time I pass by a shop or a stall, I will ask one by one.

And this time, Zhu Di was not angry.

After visiting dozens of shops and stalls, Zhu Di finally gave up and went back to the palace directly.

"Guo Qing, how can this be? How can the Daming treasure banknotes carefully printed by my father be so ...... Worthless?

If this continues, won't the treasure money become less and less valuable, and won't it become a great evil? ”

Guo An smiled and didn't answer.

Seeing this, Zhu Di said again: "Why didn't anyone report this matter to us?" ”

"Guo Qing, is there a solution?"

Guo An sighed slightly, "Your Highness, this matter is extremely difficult!" Since the court began to print treasure banknotes, I don't know how much has been printed and distributed to the entire Ming Dynasty?

Treasure money is prevalent, people no longer trust treasure money, and the number of treasure money exchanged for copper money is also decreasing......

The court also ordered that people were not allowed to trade silver without permission......"

Zhu Di asked again: "Guo Qing, can the court know about this matter?" Does the father know? ”

Guo An said: "Your Majesty, although since the twentieth year of Hongwu, the imperial court has adjusted the two items of Lu rice and the money to the one of the Lu rice, and no longer issues money to officials.

However, those officials will inevitably use treasure money in their homes.

The fact that the treasure money is becoming less and less valuable, the court officials must also know about it!

As for whether His Majesty knows it, Weichen doesn't know! ”

Zhu Di's eyes narrowed slightly, "Guo Qing, do you mean that those thieves will hide this matter?" ”

Guo An said slowly: "Your Highness, maybe those officials who care about the treasure money dare not pay tribute to Your Majesty.

And those officials who have the courage to pay tribute to His Majesty don't care whether the treasure money is worth it or not! ”

"This ......"

Zhu Di looked stunned.

Immediately, after reacting, he was furious, "Those thieves really deserve to be killed!" ”

"This king wants to play this matter to his father!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

Guo An nodded slightly, and said: "Your Highness, Weichen only knew about the depreciation of the treasure banknote before, but he didn't expect the depreciation to be so big!"

Wei Chen implored that when His Royal Highness paid salaries to the soldiers and officials of the palace in the future, he would use more rice, meat, or copper coins. ”

"We'll think about it!"

Zhu Di nodded in agreement, but his face was very bad.

Guo An also understood, he guessed that there were at least two million taels of treasure money in Zhu Diyan's palace, and every time Zhu Di won a battle, Zhu Yuanzhang would reward Zhu Di with hundreds of thousands, or millions of treasure notes.

The most is that he took Naha out that time, captured thousands of Northern Yuan nobles, and Zhu Yuanzhang directly rewarded Zhu Di with two million treasure money.

And now, the value of the treasure banknote has directly shrunk by half?

How can Zhu Di not feel distressed?

Guo An suggested: "Your Highness, or Weichen will use the treasure money in the house to expand the craftsman school this time!" In this way, the more money you spend on the house, the more you stop the loss! ”

"Stop loss?"

Zhu Di pondered for a moment, and his eyes lit up.

"Pass the order, my Yan Wangfu will no longer use treasure money in the future!"

Guo An was shocked, "Your Highness, no!" ”

Zhu Di was stunned, "Why is this?" ”

Guo An said: "Your Royal Highness, the treasure money is implemented by Your Majesty, and the caravans and shops of my Yanwang Mansion are the most in Beiping Mansion, especially the Zhangjiawan Wharf!"

If my Yan Wangfu no longer uses treasure money, won't I take the lead in disobeying His Majesty's edict......"

Zhu Di's face suddenly stiffened.

After a while, he hurriedly said: "Let's go to the Emperor of the Father!" ”

Guo An said: "Your Royal Highness is wise, and the court is full of princes, there will definitely be someone who can solve the dilemma of the treasure money!" ”

"When it is!"

Zhu Di agreed.

Guo An took the opportunity to say again: "Your Highness Mingjian, the value of today's treasure banknotes is depreciating so fast, and Weichen's expansion of the craftsman school requires 100,000 taels of treasure money!" ”

"One hundred thousand taels?"

Zhu Di's eyes suddenly widened.

"Your Highness, when converted into 100,000 taels of silver, it can be equivalent to 30,000 taels of silver.

The expansion of the craftsman school is not only about building houses, but also about all kinds of crafting equipment, materials, and ingredients......

Your Highness, although the Craftsman Academy cannot be compared with the Academy, Wei Chen believes that the Craftsman Academy can create a thousand times or even ten thousand times the amount of money created by the Yanwang Mansion.

It is far from being comparable to the academy, so Wei Chen feels that His Royal Highness should not only pay attention to the academy, but despise the craftsman school! ”

"When did we despise the Craftsman Academy?"

Zhu Di looked at Guo An dissatisfied.

Guo An was not afraid, and said stiffly: "Your Highness, Weichen wants to expand the craftsman school, and your 100,000 taels of treasure money is only 30,000 taels of silver, and you are not willing to ......."

"Give!"

Zhu Di's face was full of impatience, "After a while, I will go and ask Hezhong to allocate 100,000 taels of treasure money to the craftsman school!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Guo An hurriedly thanked.

This, thinking of something, Zhu Di's face sank again, "Guo Qing, now that the entire Ming Dynasty is using treasure money, those officials in the DPRK and China will inevitably need several years to solve this matter."

Now, there are nearly two million taels of treasure banknotes in our Yan Palace, how to stop the loss of these treasure banknotes? ”

Regarding the new words that came out of Guo An's mouth, Zhu Di still learned very quickly.

Guo An thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, you can circulate all the treasure money of my Yan Wangfu to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom!" ”

"Circulation to Goryeo and Wako?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Zhu Di's eyes.

Guo An continued: "Your Highness, Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom do not know about the depreciation of the treasure money in my Ming Dynasty.

On the contrary, Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom do not have many of my Ming treasure banknotes, and they will definitely love my Ming treasure money when they see it.

Even, like a treasure.

The caravans in the palace only used treasure money to trade with the Goryeo and the Japanese people.

In this way, within a year, the more than 2 million taels of treasure money in the palace can all flow from the palace to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom. ”

"Very good! My Yan Wangfu can also exchange more treasure money from those Ming merchants at a low price, and then exchange it for Goryeo and the Japanese people at the normal price! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di's eyes instantly lit up.

"In this way, if all my Ming treasure money flows to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom, wouldn't it be possible to solve the depreciation of the Ming treasure banknote?"

"Difficult!"

Guo An shook his head slowly, "Your Highness, I have too much money in the Ming Dynasty." Weichen even suspected that the treasure banknotes issued by His Majesty to various parts of the Ming Dynasty had exceeded tens of thousands of taels.

With so much treasure money, it is simply not something that Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom can afford.

Moreover, in the future, Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom will also become the Yan Kingdom, and the economy of Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom must not collapse! ”

Zhu Di said: "In this way, then leave it to the officials of the court to solve it!" ”

"Your Highness is wise!"

Guo An hurriedly said: "In addition, the treasure money that my Yan Wangfu caravan circulates to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom also needs to be controlled, not too much. ”

Zhu Di nodded slightly, "Guo Qing will be responsible for this matter!" ”

"Weichen takes the order!"
