Chapter 45: Money Increases, Goods Remain, Only Causes Inflation (Ask for Follow-up!) )

"By the way, how are your second brother and that little county lord doing?"

Xiao Han, who was about to leave the palace, turned his head to look at Zhu Biao again and asked curiously.

"Well, since the last time I talked, the second child's dislike for the little county lord has decreased a lot, and they get along well, but they are a little bit of a needle in their personality."

Zhu Biao nodded and replied softly.

Zhu Fan is really honest this time, and he has also met Minmin Timur, except for his personality, he is a little conflicting, and he is quite satisfied in other aspects.

"Normal."

"After all, the little county lord is a Northern Yuan woman, a nomad, and a strong personality, which is normal."

"As for King Qin's character, there is no need to say much, you and I both understand, except for the old man, it is King Qin's temper that is the most explosive."

Xiao Han suddenly showed such an expression, and then smiled slightly.

Zhu Rong's current personality is just hot, but in the future, it will be a real brutality, and it will kill people when he goes out, but it is not a lie.

Besides, the little county lord of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Wang Baobao's sister-in-law, is a grassland person, and she has been pampered since she was a child, so her personality is naturally also hot.

Therefore, the collision of these two together will definitely stir up a thousand waves, but there is no absolute in everything, and the historical Min Min Timur, since marrying Zhu Zhang, is gentle and virtuous, showing the dignity of the princess, and finally went with Zhu Zhang, just these two points, Zhu Fan married Min Timur, absolutely blood earnings.

"Well, don't bother to bother with them."

Zhu Biao waved his hand, anyway, the marriage has been decided, so Zhu Fan can't be allowed to be in charge, and if he can't even handle his daughter-in-law, then at most his father's wife is strict.

However, thinking about it in a blink of an eye, this is not bad, someone is in charge of Zhu Zhang, and Zhu Fan will not let go of himself, so let it be.

After all, there is a precedent for the old Zhu family, and it is still a precedent set by the founding emperor Taizu, so naturally no one dares to chew the root of his tongue.

"Why don't you want the old man to intervene in reforming currency trading?"

After a long time, Zhu Biao stopped, looked at Xiao Han in front of him, and couldn't help but speak.

"Huh?"

"I knew you wouldn't be tempted to ask me."

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth hooked up a smile, and then, he also stopped, looked at Zhu Biao and asked rhetorically: "Do you think, how did the Jiaozi of the Northern Song Dynasty and the banknotes of the Yuan Dynasty go into decline?" ”

"Because, it's flooding."

Zhu Biao thought for a moment before he looked at Xiao Han and said.

"That's right."

"Let's talk about the Northern Song Dynasty first, they issued Jiaozi Ping Currency for the convenience of trading, but in essence, Jiaozi is not silver."

"It's just a deposit certificate belonging to the Northern Song Dynasty, as long as you hold Jiaozi, you can exchange it for silver, then the court will come forward, and the people will naturally be willing to use light Jiaozi."

"But these belong to the credibility of the imperial court, and if the credibility is abused, it will be like the banknotes of the Yuan Dynasty, because of the large-scale printing of the imperial court, the banknotes have been completely reduced to waste paper."

"Therefore, the Yuan Dynasty has lost its credibility, and even if it wants to redeem it, it will be useless, and the people will not buy it, what should you do?"

Xiao Han leaned against the wall of the palace, looked at the contemplative Zhu Biao, and said with a smile.

"At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the people were poor and waiting to be rebuilt.

Although Zhu Biao didn't want to admit it, he had to admit it and nodded.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's stubbornness, that is obvious to all, if you taste the sweetness, then you have to print it on a large scale, then the credibility of the Ming Dynasty will be completely lost, and from then on, if you want to reform the currency trading system, it will be difficult to reach the sky, and it is impossible to achieve.

"The transformation of the currency trading system is by no means something that can be completed overnight."

"And with Your Majesty's style of doing things, it must be the next holy decree, which is to exchange money of the same value for gold and silver in the hands of the people."

"Anyway, as long as the silver in the world is in the Daming treasury, how much will be issued, and it is not a matter of Your Majesty's words?"

"As for resistance, there must be, but Huaixi Xungui's combat effectiveness is obvious to everyone, and suppression is not a casual thing?"

"Even if you kill hundreds of thousands, Your Majesty is not ambiguous, after all, this matter is done, then Daming basically doesn't have to worry about money, so, what is it to kill hundreds of thousands?"

Xiao Han shrugged his shoulders and said.

This is the Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's style of doing things, in order to achieve the goal, unscrupulous means, and as long as the result is what he wants, that is enough.

But can you really do that?

From Zhu Yuanzhang's point of view, it is naturally possible, after all, the person who can become the emperor is not ruthless, and Zhu Yuanzhang is still the best among them.

But from the perspective of Xiao Han and Zhu Biao, this is tantamount to robbing the people, besides, the rebellion is small, and the Ming Dynasty can suppress it.

But in the next ten years, Daming will not have to do anything, and don't think about development, that will be a devastating blow.

Especially at this time period, in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, which had just entered the chaos, the world was already suffering from a great injury, and it was an unprecedented disaster for the people.

"Hmm."

"This is my dad."

Zhu Biao opened his mouth, but nodded weakly.

"Then can't you exchange the world's gold and silver for double the value?"

Zhu Biao raised his head again, looked at Xiao Han and said.

"Do you have a brain pump that can come out of your mouth?"

Xiao Han suddenly looked at Zhu Biao and his eyes widened.

This turned out to be what Zhu Biao said!

"Ahem."

But Zhu Biao didn't think it was wrong, flat economy, since Daming couldn't do it, then double the compensation to the people, let Daming's credibility be amplified, and give them double compensation, isn't it okay?

"Indeed, you will gather all the gold and silver of the world in the court, and issue double the currency on the basis of these."

"But have you ever thought that the deposit of silver far beyond the treasury is equivalent to making something out of nothing, which is not to relieve the pressure of the imperial court, but to increase the pressure of the imperial court."

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Biao angrily and said.

"Why?"

Zhu Biao's eyes flashed with confusion.

"The total value of the currency has doubled, but my grain, cloth, salt and iron, and other goods are still those quantities."

"Then what's the difference between printing currency and the Yuan Dynasty next?"

"The total amount of goods has not changed, but the amount of money in hand has doubled, which will cause prices to skyrocket."

"For the sake of the court and the people, I have to continue to print more currency, until the flood you said is a disaster, and the currency is reduced to waste paper."

"So isn't this a repeat?"

"It's not the old way of the Yuan Dynasty?"

Xiao Han still looked at Zhu Biao angrily and explained.

While measuring money, you must estimate the value of goods in the market and form an equal value, otherwise, even if you pull a cart of currency, you will not be able to buy a load of grain, so it is better to continue the old system than to reform it.
