Zhu Yuanzhang strolled around to eliminate food, he drank a lot of beer, so in order not to toss back and forth to the toilet at night, he walked more and tried to digest the water.

Then there is less in the stomach, take a bath, let people massage it, and sleep with soothing incense.

It was getting dark, and the days in March of the solar calendar were still not long enough, and it was dark early.

The people who don't cook come out to eat, and the people who work hard earn today's wages, and those who earn a lot of money take out a few pennies to buy wine, food, and wine and drink it back.

The best thing is naturally an iron plate chicken rack, a chicken rack is enough to drink two taels of wine, or half a catty of rice wine, and a large bamboo tube beer.

"Why does he give more? Mine isn't money? "A man who was waiting to buy a sizzling chicken rack saw someone buy a chicken rack and ended up giving half more.

That's half, now there are more chickens, a sizzling chicken rack is a penny, according to the more, two pennies can buy three.

He didn't dare to make trouble, but he had to understand why? Don't suffer from widowhood but unevenness!

"The treasure money he used, aren't we exchanging the treasure money! You hurry up and change it, and then use the treasure money to buy things in Qiu Village at a discount, and break the bone. The man who sold the sizzling chicken rack patiently explained.

"Still broken bones, who would think? Kill me, what's the difference, I exchange copper coins for treasure money, and then come back, what difference does it make if I give you copper coins? Take off your pants and fart, and pay that twice. "This man is reasonable.

"It's different, you spend a penny to buy a chicken rack at a time, and you can exchange it for at least 20 wen at a time, and then you can use the money to buy wine, and give more." The chicken rack seller continued.

"I just want to know ......"

"You don't want to know, you either pay for it now, or go and change it, don't get in the way, I still have to buy it!" There are people in the back who are not happy.

"Let's ask? Buy, you buy, you also use paper money? I heard that there was one in the Yuan Dynasty, but it was useless. The man glanced back and stepped aside.

"It's useless, you use copper coins! I use treasure money, I buy three, two pennies, eat more meat in winter, chicken racks are cheap, and the price rises again in a few days. ”

"You buy three, you ...... Where did you change it? ”

"In the box restaurant, other stores do business, and the box restaurant sells it for a while at noon."

"Then my team is still in line, right?"

"Count it as a fart, who's waiting for you? You buy it directly with copper money. ”

"No, no, no, no, I'll change it too, and then spend two pennies to buy three for the family to eat."

"It means that you want to buy one, and then you eat it yourself, and the man really spends it regardless of the family."

"As if you're not a man."

"I'm a man from the Gu family, can you leave?"

"Humph!" The man left his position, looked back at the team, and regretted it! He shouted, "Leave me three, and I'll be back at once." ”

Like those who sell chicken racks, the business where Xiaqiu Village is located is always discounted or given away, and the chicken racks are too cheap to be discounted, so they have to be sent.

Some can be discounted by nine, or they just give more things, depending on how much money there is, those with ten cents can get a nine-fold discount, and those with two cents can't.

Buy clothes, ceramic utensils, bags of rice noodles, etc., and it will be obvious after the discount.

If it's at night snack, it's a rice noodle for three pennies, and two more fish meatballs.

When you exchange money, you don't get a discount, not only don't you get a discount, but you also have to look at the quality of the copper coin, and if you don't have a good condition, you have to give a discount to the copper coin.

How can fiat currencies be discounted? The more discounted, the more no one changes, and only the goods are discounted, which is disguised as the appreciation of treasure money.

Throughout the night snack street, all the shops were asked to give extra benefits, and then they took the treasure money, and gave them the same discount when they paid the fee.

If the stall thinks that he is more strong, that is, he does not give a discount to the person who takes the treasure money, then no one goes to him to buy it, and it will be more to change the stall.

How much to discount depends on the profit, the higher the profit, the more discounts, five percent of the profit, it is impossible to give a nine-nine discount, a nine-nine or nine-eight discount is good.

Especially the merchants who wholesale things, they are not a small number of percent.

The big businessmen inquired about the situation and learned that the department store was opened in Daming this year, and there was at least one in the county outside, and they began to exchange treasure money.

They knew that there were valuable things in Xiaqiu Village, and behind them was the palace, endorsed by such an existence, and they could rest assured that they were holding treasure money.

They are exchanged for dozens or hundreds, and even those who are bold can exchange hundreds or thousands of them, which is easy to carry.

In addition, they were confused when they saw this treasure banknote, the pattern was too beautiful, several colors, with watermarks inside, and they didn't know where to start making it if they wanted to counterfeit it.

Unlike ordinary paper, as soon as you move your hands, the paper clicks, and the treasure money of the Yuan Dynasty is like an apprentice and a master compared to the treasure money of the Ming Dynasty, no, the apprentices are not qualified.

In addition, it is said that from February, the imperial court will only collect treasure money for tax collection, if there is no treasure banknote, you will be exchanged on the spot, and an additional handling fee will be charged, which is one percent, and less than one penny will be counted as one penny.

The first places to respond were Ningguo Mansion, Taiping Mansion, and Ying Tianfu.

The village in Xuancheng County saw that it was Xiaqiu Village that helped print the treasure banknotes, and they were exchanged for all of them, except for the gold and silver that they kept for jewelry, the others were all exchanged for treasure money.

……

"Yesterday another 50,000 were released? According to the plan, Nanjing has 1.5 million guan, so it seems that it will be distributed in a month. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't go to the imperial city in the morning, anyway, the ministers took their families to the village to eat and take pictures after finishing their work in the morning.

The lieutenant shook his head: "Not necessarily, it may be replaced in advance, or it may take longer, depending on the merchant's acceptance, and the use of treasure money is written into the law."

When the people used treasure money to buy things, and some of the stalls did not accept it, they arrested people, fined money, beat boards, and locked them up.

There is no room for bargaining, it is mandatory, and we allow them to exchange treasure money for copper coins and gold and silver.

Department stores are responsible for exchanging, copper coins, gold and silver for treasure banknotes directly exchanged, treasure banknotes for gold, silver and copper charge a handling fee, one percent, less than one penny is counted as one penny. ”

The lieutenant was very tough on the issue of treasure banknotes, because he was tough and not negotiable.

Zhu Yuanzhang supported: "We are not casually printing money, let's take real money as collateral and seal the treasury directly, otherwise we won't give treasure money." That is, you. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was very helpless, Xiaqiu Village was uncompromising on this matter, and he would give as much treasure money as he could, and he would move early in the future.

Facing the masters of Xiaqiu Village, Zhu Yuanzhang admitted that people are also for their own good, so there will be no inflation.

"The next step is the most important, we lose money to issue treasure banknotes that are less than the face value of one penny, one dime, two jiao, five jiao, and the cost.

Your Majesty is ready for a million, and then releases it, and the people promise to be willing to change it, and the face value of a penny is still too great.

Many times you can buy a lot of things for a penny, you can buy a pound of rice for a penny, and you can make a lot of popcorn sticks for a pound.

How much is a stick worth? Others want to eat one or two, two for a dime, and twenty for a penny. ”

The lieutenant took out a big killing weapon, a small denomination of treasure money, according to the price of goods and the way of purchase of the Ming Dynasty, the people were willing to accept it.
