The first year of Shenghua, April 15.

The headquarters of the Dairi Royal Chamber of Commerce opened in Kyoto Castle.

On the opening day, Qin Wei and Situ Qianxue came to the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce in person, and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty sent congratulatory gifts.

The headquarters of the Royal Chamber of Commerce is located in the south of Kyoto City, which is a large courtyard composed of several pavilions, the archway is three feet high, and the plaque on it is the large glass royal Chamber of Commerce written by Qin Wei himself.

Although Qin Wei's calligraphy is not as good as that of famous masters, his writing is vigorous and powerful, full of dragon flying and phoenix dancing, which looks quite charming.

The opening of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce was a major event for the whole of Kyoto, the royal family was high in the eyes of the common people, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to reach it, and even many people in Kyoto did not know what their Emperor Majesty was like all their lives.

And now that the royal chamber of commerce has opened, they have one more way to contact the royal chamber, although the chamber of commerce is only a chamber of commerce, but with the royal name, it means that it is royal.

On the opening day, many people in Kyoto came to the Royal Chamber of Commerce to watch the ceremony, but they could only stand from a distance to watch, and when Qin Wei and Situ Qianxue came to the Chamber of Commerce, they did not hide it, but waved generously to the surrounding people.

Seeing Qin Wei and Situ Qianxue coming slowly on the imperial horse, the onlookers couldn't help but get excited.

For a time, the people on both sides of the road knelt down and chanted, 'Your Majesty's Holy Ann'.

The sound of waves echoes over Kyoto.

Qin Wei sat on the royal throne, looking at the thousands of people, and his heart was full of pride.

The people are the foundation of the nation.

Even if this world is a world of existence and cultivation, ordinary people are still the foundation of a dynasty.

Qin Wei is not a saint, nor does he have a heart of the Holy Mother, he will not care about the poverty of every people, but he hopes that every person can have a chance to climb up.

You can be rich, you can be wise, you can be powerful.

Looking at the smiling faces, Qin Wei was in a very good mood.

At least he should be doing a good job as an emperor now.

Although there is still turmoil within Dali, with the reform of the tax system, the people should recognize him as the emperor in their hearts.

The royal man walked to the door of the Royal Chamber of Commerce, and Qin Wei walked down.

Shen Wansan brought a group of treasurers of the Royal Chamber of Commerce and said, "Respectfully Your Majesty, Holy Ann!" ”

At the same time, many officials from the court also came.

Although the Royal Chamber of Commerce is named royal, it also has an inextricable relationship with the court, even if Qin Wei doesn't want the Royal Chamber of Commerce to be too involved with local officials, but some things are unavoidable.

"Everyone, love Qing is exempt!"

Qin Wei said with a smile.

Situ Qianxue next to him looked at the Royal Chamber of Commerce with a curious expression.

After this little girl came to Kyoto, she has been staying in the imperial city, and she is not familiar with Kyoto, and as for the Royal Chamber of Commerce, she doesn't know much about it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Qin Wei glanced at the ministers in front of him, and saw that Sun Wenjian, the secretary of the household department, and Jiang Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, were there, so he said: "The Royal Chamber of Commerce is my private property, although it has nothing to do with the court, but after all, it is making profits in the people, so I plan to let the Royal Chamber of Commerce feed the court in the future." ”

"Thirty percent of the annual revenue of the Royal Chamber of Commerce goes to the household department."

With Qin Wei's words, the surrounding officials were surprised and delighted.

Thirty percent of the annual income of the Royal Chamber of Commerce belongs to the Ministry of Households, which is not big or small.

Opening a chamber of commerce in the name of the royal family, you don't need to think about it to know that this chamber of commerce will definitely be very profitable in the future. Originally, the ministers in the court were still a little dissatisfied with this, especially the household department, they were in charge of the court's money bags, and naturally hoped that the more money the court had, the better.

The Royal Chamber of Commerce has so much income, they don't look at it, it's fake, it's just that because of Qin Wei's might, they don't even dare to mention it.

And now Qin Wei took the initiative to hand over 30% of the income to the household department, which made the officials of the household department surprised and delighted.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

A group of officials immediately cheered.

It's not that they want to be greedy for money, but the court is also rich and easy to do, and they can't do anything without money.

Qin Wei is so able to toss, they are also very worried in their hearts, for fear that the court's money bag will be empty, and now there is the royal chamber of commerce, which also makes them feel at ease.

Then Qin Wei entered the Royal Chamber of Commerce for a tour, and chatted with Shen Wansan a few more words.

In fact, there is no need for him to say anything, Shen Wansan is more professional in business than him, and he is one or two who can guide Shen Wansan with the knowledge of his previous life, but what should have been said before, the little thing in his stomach has long been emptied.

Although the Royal Chamber of Commerce has already opened, everything is complicated, and if you want to keep the Royal Chamber of Commerce on the right track, Shen Wansan still has to spend some effort.

However, the current Royal Chamber of Commerce inherited the previous property of Long'an Mansion, and Qin Wei also handed over all the tributes in the imperial city to the Royal Chamber of Commerce to take care of, so the current scale of the Royal Chamber of Commerce is still very large.

……

The first year of Shenghua, April 18.

Qin Wei once again took Situ Qianxue out of the imperial city and came to the street of the headquarters of the Royal Chamber of Commerce.

Of course, this time he did not go to the Royal Chamber of Commerce, but to the Dali Central Bank.

The opening of the Dali Central Bank means that the first step of Dali's economic development has been officially taken.

At the same time, the new money is also officially flowing into the people, it is not easy to let the new money replace the old money, the glass is so vast, the people are so numerous, the copper money in circulation is countless, and the types of copper money are also very complicated.

In order to ensure the circulation of new money and let the people recognize the new money, Qin Wei asked the imperial court to settle all the money with new money from now on, including all the money of officials, nobles, and royal families, and even the military expenses in the future will be settled with new money.

In the future, there will be no more color folding, no more grain folding, and only new money will be issued.

The issuance of new money will definitely cause some fluctuations, which is unavoidable, and Qin Wei is already prepared in his heart.

Qin Wei has seen all the new coins minted by the Money Casting Division, and the styles are very exquisite, much better than the previous copper coins, and he believes that the people will like it.

The responsibility of the central bank is not only to issue new money, but also to the internal economic development, monetary credit, and economic macroeconomic regulation and control of the large glass are of great significance.

At present, the Dali Central Bank is not able to shoulder these responsibilities, but Qin Wei is not in a hurry, things have to be done little by little, and some things are in a hurry. Now the central bank's priority is to replace the old money with new money.

Compared with the opening of the Royal Chamber of Commerce, the opening of the Dali Central Bank is more important, and most of the important ministers of the court have almost come.

However, the response among the people was mediocre, and the people didn't even know what this central bank was, so few people came to watch.

Accompanied by Qi Chao and a group of ministers, Qin Wei wandered around the central bank.

Although the central bank is only a bank, its specifications are not low, Qi Chao in this bank president level with the six books, directly under the cabinet, there are cabinet jurisdiction, the bank has a lot of department-level yamen, including the money casting department, the money transportation department, the supervision department, the examination department and so on.

The Inspectorate has the power to supervise the central bank, the Ministry of Accounts is in charge of the treasurer of the central bank, the criminal department needs to draft corresponding bills, and the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the personnel power of the central bank, and so on.

Almost all the ministries and yamen of the court have to meddle in the central bank, although this will cause some unclear responsibilities, but the central bank is a matter of great importance, and the supervision must be strict, in order to avoid mistakes within the central bank, Qin Wei can only let the yamen of the court and the court supervise together.

In the following days, the Royal Chamber of Commerce and the Central Bank gradually got on the right track, and new money began to circulate among the people.

A few days later, Qin Wei dressed up in disguise and slipped out of the imperial city with Xiao Shunzi.

The streets of Kyoto are filled with smoke and fire, and there is a constant stream of pedestrians, cars, horses, and people.

With the flow of people, Qin Wei and Xiao Shunzi wandered around the lively streets.

In the past few days, new money is definitely a hot topic in Kyoto, and Qin Wei also wants to see how well the people accept new money.

Walking on the street, Qin Wei randomly found a restaurant and sat down.

He sat on the second floor by the window and could see the many stalls across the street.

As a result, after looking at it for a long time, I didn't find a single person with new money.

In the past few days, the central bank has invested millions of new coins of various types in Kyoto, and it stands to reason that there should be some circulation.

"Call the shopkeeper to come over!"

Qin Wei instructed Xiao Shunzi.

Soon, Xiao Shunzi brought the shopkeeper into the box.

"I don't know what this guest officer commands?" The shopkeeper looked at Qin Wei with a sneer.

Although Qin Wei has changed into ordinary civilian clothes, his temperament is not ordinary at first glance.

"Has your restaurant received any new money in the past few days?" Qin Wei asked.

"Ahh

The shopkeeper was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Qin Wei to ask this.

"This, the guest officer may not know, no one spends the new money at all."

This time it was Qin Wei's turn to be stunned, "Why?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "The guest officer also wants new money, but if the guest officer wants to change new money, he can only go to the central bank, and he can't change new money in other places." ”

"Everyone likes new money, and it is said that the court uses new money as a gift for adults, but those adults are reluctant to spend it."

"Hehe, I heard that there are people on the black market who exchange new money, one or two taels of silver for one dollar of silver."

After Qin Wei heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, but then his brows relaxed.

It's not a good thing, it's not a bad thing.

At the very least, it shows that everyone likes new money, but because the amount of new money is relatively small, it is a bit of a strange thing.

However, the current production capacity of the Coin Mint Division is limited, and this situation should continue for some time, and this situation should be alleviated when the amount of new money reaches a certain level.

Qin Wei took out a silver dollar and threw it to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper hurriedly caught the silver dollar, surprised and a little unbelievable.

"Thank you for the reward, thank you for the reward!"

He thanked Qin Wei for a while.

Qin Wei waved his hand, signaling that he could go down, and Xiao Shunzi hurriedly stepped forward and led out the shopkeeper who was still thanking.

Qin Wei sat in the inn and looked at it for a while, and saw that there was really no one using the new money, and he didn't care.

It's also a good thing that strange goods can live, at least it can make the people accept this new money.

As long as the people are willing to accept it, the plan to abolish the two yuan will be considered a success.

Just as Qin Wei was about to get up and leave, a warrior in a strong suit came in a hurry and whispered a few words in Xiao Shunzi's ear.

"What's wrong?"

Qin Wei asked.

"Childe, there is a huge ship docked in Linhai Mansion!" Xiao Shunzi said.

Qin Wei's eyes narrowed slightly.

The giant ship is docked!

Ordinary ships docking naturally will not attract the attention of the Imperial City Division, since the Imperial City Division has come to report, it means that this giant ship is extremely extraordinary.

"It's finally time to come!"

"Let's go, go back!"
