Chapter 10 Daming Treasure Banknote

It was the first time he had met someone like Li Qing, but as everyone knows, Li Qing was also the first time he had met someone like him.

Li Qing was depressed enough, in the past, he practiced with his master, and the nearby villagers went up the mountain to ask for medicine, and they would bring steamed buns, rice and other food exchanges.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that he was not leaving, and it was not easy to attack in front of his sick wife, so he pulled his cuffs with a calm face.

Left and right, I didn't take it out for a long time, and I couldn't help but be embarrassed in place.

Li Qing didn't expect such a show, and for a while, the atmosphere in the hall was extremely embarrassing.

Li Qing was strictly trained, and although it was funny, he still endured it, but the corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't laugh.

Damn, dare to joke on this dog day...... Zhu Yuanzhang's black face was flushed, ashamed and annoyed.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to go crazy, Li Qing sighed secretly and arched his hand: "The minister's clothes can still be worn if they are repaired, and Weichen will retire." ”

"Wait."

I don't want any money, what do you want to do? If you don't let me go, I can't hold back my laughter!

"What does the emperor command?"

"We just don't have the habit of bringing money." Zhu Yuanzhang forcibly saved his respect, "If you use money, go to the prince." ”

"Hmm... I see. ”

"Huh?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, "What is your attitude?" You're a little fucking disrespectful! ”

Li Qingsheng has nothing to love, this grandfather is too difficult to serve, he hurriedly kowtowed in horror, and then shouted wronged.

"What are you doing so loudly, you are noisy, I don't know if the queen needs to recuperate?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily, "Hurry up." ”

“…… Wechen retired. ”

Walking out of the Qianqing Palace, Li Qing breathed a long sigh of relief, and complained in his heart: "Getting along with Lao Zhu is more tiring than using true qi to play the piano for Queen Ma to cure her illness." ”

Play to play, make trouble, and pay back the banknotes!

In the imperial study, Li Qing euphemistically expressed his constraints, Zhu Biao nodded amusedly, and said to the personal eunuch, "Go to the East Palace and get five hundred taels." ”

"Your Highness!" Li Qing said reservedly, "Actually, I don't need so much." ”

"If you can't finish it, you will spend it slowly." Zhu Biao asked, "What is the condition of the queen mother?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, it is developing in a good direction." Li Qing didn't lie, it was true now.

"That's very good." Zhu Biao smiled kindly, "If you are tired, sit down and rest for a while, you don't have to be formal." ”

Or will the prince come to trouble...... Li Qing thanked him, walked to the side and sat down, secretly recovering his true qi, saying that the five hundred taels of silver had to be carried away.

One tael of silver can be exchanged for 1,000 copper coins, which is about 600 yuan in the future according to the current price.

Five hundred taels of silver is three hundred thousand!

Li Qing is not happy, this is considered to be developed.

Two quarters of an hour later, the little eunuch returned and stepped forward with a wooden plate, "Your Highness, the money has been fetched." ”

"Leave it to Mr. Li." Zhu Biao did not raise his head, and continued to review the folds.

Li Qing was surprised, this small wooden plate can hold five hundred taels?

Seeing that this little eunuch was holding it very easily, Li Qing understood that it should be a silver ticket, but he didn't care, the silver and silver tickets were the same, as long as it was money, it could be spent.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Li Qing thanked him for his grace and lifted the yellow silk covered on the wooden plate, and couldn't help but be stunned again.

It is indeed a silver ticket on the wooden plate, but it is different from what you see on TV, it is a big one, and it is almost on A4 paper, and it is not printed with the words of silver taels, but the six big characters of "Daming Pass Treasure Banknote".

There are two boxes under the large characters, the upper box reads 'consistently', and the pattern of ten strings of copper coins, and the lower box is the voucher issued by the household department, the date, and the seal.

Li Qing couldn't help but wonder, is this thing worth it?

"It has always been one tael, and ten strings of copper coins represent a thousand Wen." Zhu Biao didn't know when, he walked over.

Li Qing came to his senses and said with a dry smile, "Wechen has been staying in the mountains before, and I have never seen such a currency, so I thought it was ......."

"You thought it was silver, right?" Zhu Biao explained with a smile: "Since the eighth year of Hongwu, the Daming treasure banknote was officially issued, and then quickly became the mainstream currency. ”

Li Qing said curiously, "Isn't the gold and silver in the hands of the people before...... Ahem, the minister is presumptuous. ”

"It doesn't matter." Zhu Biao waved his hand and explained, "The gold and silver in the hands of the people are not invalid, and they can be exchanged for the same denomination of Daming treasure banknotes from the imperial court, and they can be exchanged at any time."

If the treasure banknote is old, it can also be exchanged for a new note of the same denomination. ”

"In this way, the emperor is wise, His Royal Highness Xie has solved his doubts."

Li Qing was speechless for a while, and always felt that Lao Zhu was not authentic in doing this, and let him exchange the silver for the treasure money of the imperial court, no matter how he looked at it, it was a loss for the people.

If the silver-based issuance of treasure banknotes is nothing, I am afraid that the imperial court can print it, in that case, it will inevitably cause inflation over time, and I don't know if Lao Zhu has studied finance.

Li Qing looked at the five hundred Daming treasure banknotes on the wooden plate, and felt that he still had to spend them as soon as possible, buy something that preserves his value, and prepare to resist inflation.

After all, his days are long, and he has to be careful with his calculations.

After thinking about it, I still think that buying a house is the most reliable!

Li Qing assessed the risk, and felt that he had pulled Queen Ma back from the brink of death and forcibly extended her life, even if Queen Ma really died at that time, the probability of being implicated was not great.

Besides, Queen Ma also gave him a life talisman, Lao Zhu is a person who loves his wife, and he doesn't want to go against his daughter-in-law's wishes, right?

Skillfully express the advanced ideas of later generations to prove their importance...... Well, not a big problem!

Li Qing left the imperial study, found a hidden corner, and stuffed the treasure money evenly into his arms, sleeves, leggings, and shoes.

If the wealth is not exposed, it is better to be a little safe.

After doing all this, Li Qingcai went back to the eunuch duty room, inquired about the location of the Yamen of Jinyi Wei Town, and then took the embroidered spring knife and left the palace.

……

Department of Pacification.

Li Qing stopped at the door for a moment, and walked inside, although the brocade guard at the door looked at him, but the flying fish suit and embroidered spring knife had already proved his identity, but he did not stop him.

As soon as he entered the gate, he saw a familiar face, and Li Qing hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, "My subordinates have seen Liu Baihu." ”

Liu Qiang was training newcomers, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly saluted politely, "Li Qianhu is a young courtesy, and his subordinates don't dare to be it." ”

"Li Qianhu?" Li Qing was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise, "You mean, I am now a thousand households?" ”

Liu Qiang smiled and nodded, turned his head and said, "Why don't you hurry up and salute the adults?" ”

Dozens of newly recruited Jinyi guards hurriedly knelt on one knee and saluted with fists, "My subordinates have seen a thousand households. ”

"Uh-huh...... Excuse me, get up! Li Qing was a little uncomfortable.

Liu Qiang said, "Li Qianhu, please come with me, my lord wants to see you." ”

"Okay." Li Qing nodded.

Straddled the two courtyards in a row and came to the inner hall, Li Qing saw the commander Mao Xiang again.

"Subordinate Li Qing (Liu Qiang) has seen Lord Zhenfu."

Mao Xiang put down the teacup, got up and read out the decree of appointment, and then gave him a waist card, "There are only one hundred and fifty people in your brocade clothes at present, but you are expanding your recruitment, and Liu Qiang is your deputy." ”

"A thousand households, take care of it." Liu Qiang hugged his fists.

Li Qing smiled and nodded, and asked Mao Xiang, "Lord Zhenfu, are you alive today?" ”

"......" Mao Xiang rolled his eyes, "You just entered Jinyiwei, and you don't know your own department and subordinates, what can you do?" ”

"Liu Qiang, give your boss a good understanding of our Jinyiwei."

Say goodbye and just leave.

Liu Qiang smiled and made a gesture of please, "My lord, please sit down, let's talk slowly." ”

"Our Jinyiwei is mainly responsible for probing intelligence, arresting illegal officials, not subject to the jurisdiction of any department, only obeying the emperor's orders, after the criminal is caught, the interrogation and murder are all under our control, and other departments have no right to interfere."

Liu Qiang talked about the detachment of Jinyiwei, with a smug look on his face, "To put it mildly, the prince has committed something, let's take it the same, Shangshu, Shilang, we Jinyiwei have killed seven or eight......"

Li Qing interrupted his rambling and asked, "Why are there only so many people in the yamen, how many people are there in our Jinyiwei?" ”

"Counting you, my lord, there are ten thousand households in total." Liu Qiang explained, "The emperor must handle the case stamped on empty paper strictly, and the local manpower is insufficient, so the brothers in the yamen went to help." ”

"By the way, please come with me, sir." Liu Qiang smiled, "Take you to see the good things of our Jinyiwei." ”
