Chapter 14: Intentions (3)
More than 300 taels of silver, or a few thousand taels of silver tickets, was only a small part of the money brought by Fang Ling, and he had asked Dong Canghai to sell some jewels to get 100,000 taels of silver tickets before he set off.
Although there are slight differences in the style of silver tickets in each country, the same thing is that they are all issued by the state, managed by the Ministry of Households, and can be exchanged for real money and silver at any time in local official institutions, so in the border areas of the two countries, the silver tickets of Chu and Cai can be used.
The silver bills circulating in various countries are generally divided into two types, one is the small banknote, which is divided into one tael, three taels, five taels, ten taels and fifty taels, and the other is the large banknote, which is divided into one hundred taels, three hundred taels, five hundred taels, one thousand taels and five thousand taels.
Whether it is a small banknote or a large banknote, in addition to the number written on the face of the bill, it is also printed with the year name of each country, and its printing method is special, whether it is the formula or the process is completely in the hands of the central authority, and the local government cannot forge it.
Therefore, although 100,000 taels of silver tickets sounds like a lot, in fact, taking 5,000 taels is only 20 tickets.
After Fang Ling was left alone in the room, he began to fuse the medicinal herbs. Since cultivating into the realm of rigid force, Fang Ling's Sun Melting Moon Solution technique has become more proficient, and the increase in the power of the sun has naturally made the ability to fuse stronger, thus reaching the realm of three fusions.
Triple fusion, that is, the degree to which matter can be fused is superimposed three times, sounds like just one more time than secondary fusion, but the effect achieved is very different.
Take 30-year-old ginseng as an example, first divide four ginseng into two groups and fuse them once to obtain two 60-year-old ginseng plants, and then, the obtained 60-year-old ginseng can be fused twice to obtain a 100-year-old ginseng plant.
However, the tertiary fusion requires the simultaneous use of eight ginseng plants, which is twice as large as the secondary fusion.
First, the eight strains of ginseng are divided into four groups, and each group is fused once to obtain four 60-year-old ginseng plants, and then, the four 60-year-old ginseng strains are divided into two groups for secondary fusion to obtain two 120-year-old ginseng strains, and then the two are fused three times to obtain 240-year-old ginseng.
For example, the price of 10-year-old ginseng is only 6-10 taels, the price of 20-year-old ginseng is 25 taels to 35 taels, and the high-quality ones can even be sold for 50 taels.
At the beginning, Fang Ling relied on the difference in price to make a lot of silver, thus opening up the joints in the palace.
According to the market conditions, the price of 30-year-old ginseng is about sixty or seventy taels, and the price of hundred-year-old ginseng is about 15 taels of gold, however, two-hundred-year-old ginseng is at least 45 taels of gold that is 4,500 taels of silver, and its age is twice that of hundred-year-old ginseng, but the price is three times, which is more than seventy times higher than the price of 30-year-old ginseng!
