In the attic of a certain palace in the pear orchard of Beiyuan, Chang'an, a young and beautiful woman has stripped naked, revealing her fair and lovely skin.

She moaned and flirted, clearly seducing a man.

But the old man next to her, who was over sixty years old, seemed to have no improvement in the lower half of his body, and his upper body did not move at all.

"Oops, oops! Saint move! ”

The woman sneered, and could not help but sit on top of the old man, writhing like a water snake.

However, the expression on the old man's face was still unwavering, and even ...... There was also a deep sense of disappointment.

"Stand down."

The old man couldn't help but sigh and said.

"Sage, wait a minute, the slave family can ......"

The beautiful woman wanted to say more, but when she saw Brother Ji impatiently, she waved her hand and scolded: "Stand down!" ”

"Don't go yet!"

Gao Lishi came over to drive away this beautiful woman, that is, a concubine of Li Yan, the king of Di. She used to be Li Yan's favorite concubine, but she didn't expect that her appearance seemed to only grow in Li Yan's aesthetics, and if she changed to a man, she would not be able to do it at all.

"I'm old, are you old?"

After only Colliers was left in the attic, Brother Kei couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Many men who have broken their bodies, although they have lost their ability in that area, have not diminished their desire for beautiful women at all.

If that's the case, that's fine, at least he knows what he likes.

But Kego is different.

It's as if he's not interested in anything between men and women at all, even if a stunning beauty seduces him naked in front of him, he seems to see a pink skull.

I don't bother to touch it at all.

To put it simply, it is completely insensitive.

Brother Kei is now less happy and more depressed. Except for power, it seems that other things have made him unable to lift his spirits.

Even if it was the music he loved in the past, Brother Ji was not interested, and he hadn't found a musician in Liyuan to "learn skills" for a long time.

"The saint is still in the heyday of spring and autumn, how can it be said that it is aging?"

Colliers cautiously reassured.

"That's it."

Brother Ji waved his hand and motioned for Colliers not to say more.

Originally, he thought that he possessed his son's beautiful concubines, and this sense of betrayal could make him excited.

Unexpectedly, it was still useless.

Brother Kee felt very empty inside and wanted to fill it with something. However, no matter how much he tried, he couldn't find that kind of satisfaction, it was always as if something was separating him.

Occasionally faintly touched, but fleeting.

"Mrs. Qiuguo's faces, help me deal with them.

By the way, there is also the face of Mrs. Han and Mrs. Qin Guo, which were also done together.

These bugs are disgusting. ”

Brother Ji said with a slight frown as if he remembered something.

He doesn't have the jealousy and grief in his heart when his woman was touched by others when he was a teenager.

Brother Ji's current feeling is purely just the kind of thing that finds some ugly caterpillars at his feet and wants to lift his feet and crush them by the way.

At the moment, there was no wave in his heart.

The three Yang ladies canonized by Brother Ji had very promiscuous private lives, and the search for faces lasted for a long time. At least five or six years have passed.

Thinking of this, Colliers was a little puzzled why Brother Ji didn't deal with it earlier.

"Saints, some of those faces have now left Chang'an and are difficult to find."

Colliers said with an embarrassed face. Just like changing concubines and concubines when Brother Ji was young, the three Yang ladies also changed their faces very diligently.

Some of them are even "professional heads".

Many of these people were Buddhist monks, and they maintained illicit relationships with many noble ladies in Chang'an, many of whom did not even shy away from their husbands.

Monks, it is just human nature to place an order in a certain temple, and to place an order in another place if you are tired and crooked.

This is also a certain "characteristic of the times" of the Tang Dynasty.

"Find one, deal with one. In the future, I don't want to hear anyone say that Yang Xing's origin is unknown, understand? ”

Brother Ji said in an unkind tone.

"Understood, slave will do it."

Colliers bowed and retired.

"Go ahead."

Brother Ji nodded slightly, and then remained silent.

"Lux come over here."

Brother Kei beckoned to Colliers, who had already walked to the door.

"What other instructions does the saint have?"

Gao Lishi walked over lightly and asked with a puzzled face.

"The crown prince is now the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, let him check how many adulterers and how many adulterers are in the fly camp in this Chang'an City.

Let him straighten out the atmosphere in Chang'an.

Those who commit adultery, those who are in front of them, those who hook up with men. As long as the prince finds out, he must be dealt with strictly. ”

Brother Ji said in an unkind tone.

Gao Lishi was slightly stunned, then saluted and retired, without saying any nonsense.

The dark night outside the window seemed to be deeper.

……

Copper engraving is not simply "carved".

It is made by carving seals on wax molds or wood and stones, then trimming them, and then casting them into copper seals.

This results in the formation of a "rough billet".

Then take a carving knife made of 100 steel, and carry out "secondary processing" on the copper rough billet to keep improving.

This became a costly copper engraving.

Of course, its printing effect is also incomparable to ordinary wood carving. If it weren't for Fang Chongyong's previous life, he would have seen the copper carving of Jiaozi in the Song Dynasty, he would definitely use wood carving because of his ugliness.

On this day, in the printing and dyeing workshop full of ink, the first version of Jiaozi has just been printed.

Fang Chongyong held a 100-hundred-silk denomination Jiaozi in his hand to observe, and couldn't help but be amazed. Immediately passed it to Ma Zhifeng, Guo Ziyi, Cen Shen and others around him to read, everyone who has admired Jiaozi is admired and appreciated, and it feels incredible.

This thing looks really good, and it looks neat, high-end, and tight.

Not to mention imitation, similar to Jiaozi's "painting", they haven't even seen it! Everyone is full of confidence in the smooth circulation of Jiaozi.

Their self-confidence does not come easily, and the complex printing process of this thing alone has been ahead of its time.

The first printing process is the use of black petroleum ink, copper engraving, and embossing technology to print the main characters, traditional Chinese characters and drawings of Jiaozi.

The second printing process is to use red cinnabar pigment and wooden engraving to print small and complex patterns such as edges, patterns, and security symbols on the semi-finished products completed in the first process.

The third printing process is to use blue pigment, use a simple rotary type "movable type printing", and use the method of roller printing to print Arabic numerals on the "unmarked jiaozi". Because of this technology, every Jiaozi will not be exactly the same!

In every process, there is no insurmountable technical threshold. However, these technologies are mixed together and scientifically integrated into the market.

This insight transcends time and time by hundreds of years. In particular, the number number on Jiaozi appeared very late, almost in modern times, and began to be popularized one after another.

The Jiaozi denominations printed this time are divided into four types: 100 silk, 50 silk, 10 silk and 5 silk. The corresponding engraving types are also divided into four sets, each with a dedicated red and black plate. The blue numerals, on the other hand, are four types that share a set of movable type.

"No one is the same...... Tsk tsk. ”

Guo Ziyi muttered with a hundred silk in his hand. It was hard for him to imagine that such a thin piece of paper was worth a hundred silks.

You must know that a strong man can't take a hundred pieces of silk, and he needs to drive to drag it. But Jiaozi is just a piece of paper, and there is almost no weight on the body, and a person carries dozens of pieces on his body, which is not troublesome at all like playing.

The daily use of Jiaozi can save some freight and be countless.

The convenience brought by this thing in circulation, and the meticulousness of the people who plan to make friends, really make people more and more afraid the more they think about it.

Guo Ziyi vaguely felt that this thing had a far-reaching impact.

"Starting tomorrow, Judge Cen, together with Yang Yan, you will start to collect silk in the bazaar in Liangzhou and forcibly exchange it.

Remember, the government only accepts silk, ordinary linen, whoever likes to trade will trade, we don't care.

The exchanged Jiaozi will have to wait for a month at the earliest before the silk is allowed to be taken out.

Deputy military envoy Guo led the team to maintain order in Liangzhou City.

For transactions below five silks, they still continue to use the gold and silver coins of the Western Regions and the Kaiyuan Tongbao of the Tang Dynasty.

In the future, a silk denomination will be issued.

There is no room for failure in this matter, and you must not neglect it. ”

Fang Chongyong instructed Cen Shen and Guo Ziyi, his expression serious.

It is conceivable that the forced circulation of Jiaozi will encounter great resistance at the beginning, because no matter what era, people use money by inertia.

It's just that Jiaozi circulation belongs to the "curve overtaking" technology, for the feudal era, its progressive significance is undoubted, and it cannot be simply regarded as a tool for plundering people's wealth.

In Fang Chongyong's Jiaozi issuance plan, the first step is to return the current natural currency to the original scope of "use value" and deprive them of their exchange value. In other words, it is to make silk, which is now an intermediary in the trade, a real cloth.

For whatever reason the grain withdrew from the main trade, then let the silk also withdraw because of anything.

The second step is to reverse the use of the method of "bad money to eliminate good money", so that the precious metal out of the main circulation link, and then the silk silk standard, into a silk and precious metal mixed standard.

In other words, no matter how low the cost of minting bad money is, it can't be any lower than the cost of printing Jiaozi! Compared to Jiaozi, all metal coins are "good coins". The Datang Center had a headache for more than a hundred years, and was beaten by Jiaozi so that he had no power to fight back.

In the third step, the government will open the floodgates and release water through the lending model of "low-interest loans" for yeoman farmers to increase liquidity. On the one hand, it will clean up the private loan sharks, and on the other hand, it will provide a "start-up capital" for homesteaders. This is actually turning M1 money into M2 money, which is a more clever way to send money.

In the short term, paper money that can be printed on a large scale can absorb the bad debts of yeoman farmers, temporarily alleviate social contradictions, and prevent yeoman farmers from immediately going bankrupt and selling their land.

The lack of precious metals will not lead to a shortage of liquidity, and then financial bankruptcy.

As for the resulting inflation, it is shared by the entire Datang society.

That's another question.

Of course, Fang Chongyong didn't know what step Ji Ge could take. After Jiaozi is launched, what will happen to the political game around Jiaozi is not something that Fang Chongyong can control.

It is not ruled out that in the future, Datang will slide into the abyss because of the Jiaozi problem.

It is always the man who kills, not the knife in the hand. Tools are innocent, and no matter how good the tools are, in the hands of bad people, they can become the source of the evil of murder and arson.

Any monetary policy is a "trade-off game", and there is no such thing as a monetary policy that does not pay a price.

The tragedy of the times is, after all, forged by everyone in the times. If you don't do anything because you choke on food, you are going from one extreme to the other.

Everyone present saw that the smile on Fang Chongyong's face dimmed, and they were all a little confused.

Before they could speak, Fang Chongyong said categorically:

"Starting tomorrow, the silk will be strictly controlled from the five states in Hexi. The government began to make every effort to confiscate silk and issue Jiaozi. ”

……

Late at night, Anaye continued to give Fang Chongyong acupuncture to relieve his migraines. Because of the recuperation of their bodies, the two have not had sex these days, and they are a little itchy with each other.

After the physiotherapy, Fang Chongyong took out a 100-hundred-silk denomination from his arms, and the number on it was A00000001. He inserted this Jiaozi into the deep "furrow" in Anaye's chest, and said with a wicked smile on his face: "The effect of acupuncture is good, serve me well tonight, this money is yours." ”

"That's it?"

Anaya pulled out the one hundred silk denominations from his chest, put it in his hand and looked at it again, and asked with a strange expression: "Just this piece of paper, can you exchange it for a hundred silks?" What fool would use this? ”

"Yes, that's it, tomorrow Liangzhou will use this kind of Jiaozi instead of silk."

Fang Chongyong nodded slightly and said.

"Ah Lang, this is a robbery, right?"

Anaye returned Jiaozi to Fang Chongyong, sighed lightly, she didn't bother to complain.

"It's not a robbery, it's better than a robbery.

After two days, I went to the market to buy a few sheep to see if it would work. ”

Fang Chongyong put Jiaozi into Anaye's hands again.

"Okay...... It just feels weird. ”

Anaye put Jiaozi away, since it was something that Fang Chongyong confessed, then she would definitely try it.

"In the future, if a man sways this kind of friendship in front of a certain woman, he can make this woman obediently strip naked and lie on the bed at the mercy of this man."

Fang Chongyong said with emotion, there are really not too many such things in his previous life.

Rich men take money and smash beautiful women. Rich women also smash handsome guys with banknotes.

Banknotes can save people from Jedi or push them into a fire pit.

Thin banknotes carry the normal operation of society and the hopes and desires of countless people.

It has infinite power.

Tomorrow, this monster will be released from its cage by itself, will it bring benefits or disasters?

Fang Chongyong's eyes were flickering, as if he had thought a lot, and he was thinking far away.

"What's wrong with Ah Lang, he can't give up?"

Anaye began to knead her man's temples with her small hands, and asked softly in his ear. This simple girl, of course, doesn't know how big turbulent waves Jiaozi will set off in the future.

At that time, she understood what Fang Chongyong was sighing about now.

"It's okay, I was just fantasizing about me waving Jiaozi and walking sideways in Chang'an Pingkangfang."

Fang Chongyong couldn't help but sneer.

In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the noble daughters of the five surnames and seven families also became trading goods for money. Families in the middle of the road collect money by "selling women".

Fang Chongyong felt that as long as he was in good health, these women were all commodities on the shelves, and he could play casually by printing money, and the issuance of Jiaozi would accelerate the process.

If he doesn't play, there will be people lining up to play and going forward and succeeding. This is the tide of the times.

"Ah Lang, although the concubine has no knowledge, she has never been to Pingkangfang. But let's put it this way, even if Ah Lang doesn't have a penny on him, he can walk sideways in Wuwei's Huamen Tower.

Whether you like fat or thin, Han girl or orchid, isn't that a matter of one sentence?

Is there a Jiaozi or not, and what is the difference? ”

Anaye didn't comprehend the famous scene in Fang Chongyong's mind, in her impression, with Fang Chongyong's current power, is it really difficult to run rampant in Flower Street Willow Lane?

"Sometimes life just loses some of its fun, you don't understand."

Fang Chongyong said.

When a person controls the issuance of Jiaozi, the behavior of waving banknotes and pretending to be forced is boring.
