Chapter 25: Just Him, Eternal Mingjun? Ye Qingqiu couldn't hold back

Looking at the exchange rate,

Ye Qingqiu calculated in his heart.

According to this exchange rate, the price of the commodity is simply to exchange the original copper coins for the current new coins.

One-to-one exchange.

So it seems that

As long as the new currency can be traded normally, nothing should go wrong in the short term.

But Ye Qingqiu knew it in his heart.

This so-called new currency is just a piece of paper.

The imperial court can build as much as it wants.

There is not much cost at all.

opposite

If too much of this new currency is minted, prices will inevitably depreciate.

In the end, it is the people who suffer.

It's just that according to the current situation, it is not possible to exchange it.

The imperial court made it mandatory for transactions to use this new currency.

took out five silver tickets, Ye Qingqiu put them on the counter: "Please exchange five hundred taels of silver for me for new coins." ”

is also the daughter of the former prime minister, and the Ye family is also a wealthy family.

This amount of money is naturally nothing to Ye Qingqiu.

Opposite, however,

The woman who heard the number was stunned in place.

After her mind turned, she hurriedly said, "This girl, please wait a moment, I will go and call us to take care of things." ”

In the territory of Qi State,

An ordinary farmer's annual harvest is about ten taels of silver.

If you work as a junior in a wine shop in the city, your monthly salary is about one to one or two or five yuan.

So among the people who came to exchange,

Basically, copper coins are used, even if it is silver, it is a few taels and a few taels.

Like Ye Qingqiu, who opened his mouth to directly exchange five hundred taels of silver, he was naturally a big customer of the bank.

Soon, the bank steward came out with a flattering face.

"This guest, this is the new currency you exchanged, please keep it."

There are 500 new coins in the 100-dollar denomination, each of which is brand new.

It is printed with various intricate patterns, and in the center of the coin is a portrait of Han Lin.

Besides

At the top of the new currency, the words Daqi Bank are also printed.

And on the right side of each coin, there is a string of numbers.

Silver tickets have been used for a long time, so in the production of banknotes, there are naturally a series of anti-counterfeiting marks.

In case of counterfeit money in the market.

After taking the new coin, Ye Qingqiu picked up one and looked at it briefly.

When she saw the portrait of Han Lin above, she felt a feeling of nausea in her heart.

I have never seen such a brazen person.

I was able to print my portrait on a coin.

If there is any great achievement,

For example, the founding emperor of Great Qi, or the Ming monarch like Emperor Huan of Qi. But you alone know what kind of mediocre lord of spending time and wine has to do such a thing.

I put it in my pocket very disgusting.

If it weren't for the fact that the transaction had to be used, Ye Qingqiu really wanted to burn it directly.

"Excuse me, how big are the denominations of this new coin?"

Ye Qingqiu suddenly asked.

The bank manager replied with a smile: "The minimum denomination is one dollar, and the top one is five dollars, ten dollars, twenty dollars, fifty dollars, and one hundred dollars." ”

"Excuse me, can you show me what it looks like?"

"Absolutely."

If it's someone else, it's still here to talk nonsense after the exchange.

The bank manager had already let Jin Yiwei in and blasted people out.

However, a distinguished guest like Ye Qingqiu is naturally willing to serve.

After a while,

One by one, the new coins were brought out.

Ye Qingqiu looked at them in turn.

On these new coins, it is finally not a portrait of Han Lin.

It is the sage of the Qi country.

For example, the founding emperor, and the champion of Qi two hundred years ago, and a prime minister, etc.

In short, they are all the ancient sages of the Qi Kingdom.

After leaving the bank, Ye Qingqiu did not go to the wine store.

Instead, I plan to go to the market and have a look.

It's like a person who has just paid his salary and can't wait to spend.

Having just been exchanged for new currency, Ye Qingqiu was naturally full of freshness.

With money in his pocket,

Ye Qingqiu came all the way to Dongshi.

In Linzi City, there are two markets.

The locations are in the east and west of the city, so they are also called East City and West City.

Coming to the East City,

Noodle shop, restaurant, pawnshop, tailor shop, blacksmith shop, bank.....

There are a variety of shops on both sides of the market.

There are also many street vendors who put the items they want to sell on the ground and keep shouting at the top of their voices.

The constant stream of cars, horses and merchants highlights the prosperity of the place.

Especially the industry started by Han Lin,

There is a constant stream of guests coming in and out.

Along

Ye Qingqiu found that all the currencies traded here had been changed to new currencies.

Besides

The biggest change is in the surrounding environment.

There is no mountain of garbage on the ground, and the figures coming and going are much cleaner than before.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but my mental outlook seems to have changed drastically.

In front of a stall,

Ye Qingqiu picked up a piece of wood carving and looked at it carefully.

The wood carving villain is carved vividly and lifelike.

It's a joy to watch.

"How can this villain be sold?"

Picking out a favorite object, Ye Qingqiu asked.

The stall owner glanced at it, stretched out his hand and gestured a number, "5 yuan." ”

"It's not expensive."

This craft is definitely worth the money.

Ye Qingqiu took out a 100 yuan new coin and handed it over.

Taking advantage of the boss's efforts to find change, Ye Qingqiu opened his mouth and asked, "Boss, I want to ask, after using the new currency, has there been any change compared to before?" ”

"Change?"

The stall owner thought for a while and said with a smile: "There must be a change, the copper coin used to be worn on the body and kept ringing, and it was still dead." ”

"A pocket can hold a few hundred dollars, you see now, such a handful of money can be folded and put in a pocket."

Seeing that the boss not only did not complain, but looked happy.

Ye Qingqiu, who was unwilling, asked several questions one after another.

The answer I got was completely different from what I imagined.

Originally, she thought that

Han Lin's launch of various measures will definitely make public resentment boil.

The result is good, the owner of the stall in front of him not only did not complain, but even praised Han Lin as a wise man through the ages.

"I didn't know it before, it turned out that we could get the plague, and it was because we didn't pay attention to environmental hygiene, and it dawned on me after Your Majesty said it."

"Now there is a bathhouse opposite my house, and I used to be reluctant to take a bath once a month, but now it only costs 5 yuan to take a bath, and it is a hot bath."

"And I heard that Your Majesty will also renovate the road surface of Linzi City, including the entire Gyeonggi area, so that there will be no need to be so bumpy when you go out."

"You say that the management is strict and the fines are heavy? It's not strict, it's not okay, otherwise, the garbage or something is not littered at will, and the old king of the house next door to me is honest after being fined once. ”

"If you want me to say, Your Majesty is the Emperor of the Ages, and the cession of Changlin Pass must be due to Your Majesty's considerations."

"Didn't you just lose the war at that time, if you don't agree to negotiate peace, if you continue to fight, maybe how many people will die, Your Majesty definitely doesn't want to see the appearance of life and suffering, so you are forced to negotiate peace."

"You say Your Majesty is obsessed with women? Please, what man in the world is not lustful, if I were to sit in that position, I would love to change ten a day. ”

Listened to the other party's chatter.

finally

Ye Qingqiu couldn't hold back.

Especially from the mouth of the other side, he heard the four words of the ancient Mingjun.

Just him, the Emperor of the Ages?
