Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    For Chen Xi, Liu Bei has always been generous, and he will notice many details that he doesn't pay much attention to. And this kind of details is a sign of kindness for a general like Gan Ning who is ignorant and clumsy.

    Gan Ning showed up at Chen Xi's house in a blink of an eye. To put it simply, he didn't go through the main entrance. However, his behavior is generally not annoying.

    "Chen Hou, I'm back!" Gan Ning appeared directly in Chen Xi's main hall like a black shadow, and then said loudly, it was also because he saw the light that he acted like this.

    "What is this?" Gan Ning asked casually, looking at the map Chen Xi was rolling up.

    Chen Xi sometimes felt that he had obsessive-compulsive disorder. The map drawn on white silk was easy to open, but it was very difficult to roll it up without wrinkles. After Jia Xu and others left, Chen Xi kept going back and forth.  I rolled the map, but there were wrinkles every time and I had to reroll it in the end.

    This kind of almost mental disorder behavior made Han Qiong a little bit disgusted with it, but she did not stop Chen Xi's behavior.

    "Map." Chen Xi was startled when he saw and heard the voice. When he saw it was Gan Ning, it was too late to roll it up. If he continued to roll it up, it would attract the attention of Gan Ning, a guy who looks vulgar but is actually careful.  stand up.

    "Oh." Gan Ning didn't ask any more questions. He glanced at it casually and didn't care. After all, the part of the Central Plains had been rolled up.

    Thanks to Chen Xi who placed the Central Plains at the beginning when he was drawing the map. If he had placed it in the middle, Gan Ning would probably have seen the traces of the Yangtze River. Even if he didn't react at first, he would have understood later that every part of the Yangtze River was sweet.  Ning has traveled all over the place, which once belonged to his sphere of influence.

    "What's the matter?" Chen Xi casually released the map he was rolling and asked calmly, "Is it possible that the copper has been transported back?"

    "Copper worth 1.5 billion yuan has been shipped back. We have built a large number of mines on Luzon Island and are now in production. The output will increase a lot in the future." Gan Ning described the current situation on Luzon Island.  .  This made Chen Xi feel at ease a lot.

    It was impossible to raise so many prisoners that Cao Cao had originally captured. After all, there were tens of thousands of strong laborers. Some of them were working in Yizhou, and the other part was transferred to Luzon for mining.  After all, even if there are a small number of native tribes there, the population density is extremely low.

    After filling in these people, the mine can be considered open for business. For this reason, Chen Xi also transferred some craftsmen to Luzon and Yizhou. After all, they will serve as a material transfer point and bridgehead.  Quite an important strategic point.

    "Copper worth 1.5 billion yuan is not bad. The Han Dynasty only produced a few hundred million yuan a year. It is enough as a deposit." Chen Xi nodded.

    The annual tax revenue of the Han Dynasty is more than 30 billion yuan, which is equivalent to 300 million gold, but the actual minted money is not much, and the copper worth 1.5 billion yuan is enough as a guarantee. If it is really made into money, for Chen Xi  It's really not worth the money.  It's more valuable as a guarantee.

    To be honest, Chen Xi originally wanted to establish a gold standard and then issue credit currency. However, there is no such foundation in this era. Chen Xi does not dare to be too messy. He first uses copper as a deposit and waits until enough copper is accumulated to destroy the entire system.  Then use gold as a deposit.

    Before that, Chen Xi felt that he might need to work harder and use himself as a credit card.  This copper worth 1.5 billion yuan is actually just another guarantee. You only use yourself as a voucher, just in case it leaks!  Get some dead money.  It can still be used in case of an accident, and copper, as a hard currency, is enough to solve the problem.

    In fact, there was one thing that could be used as hard currency, and that was salt. Unfortunately, Chen Xi was about to stabilize the price of salt.  Completely destroy the price of salt, which is as high as 300 yuan per stone. It is twice as expensive as polished rice. This is the price after Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping adjusted the salt price. What a hell!

    Although salt tax has always been a very important item in national taxation, now due to large-scale manufacturing, the cost of refined salt has been suppressed to a few dollars, and it is forced to sell for nearly a hundred times the profit. Chen Xi feels that if the price is not adjusted,  , I really can¡¯t stand it anymore.

    One hundred dollars is Chen Xi's bottom line. He can tolerate a higher price than food, but you can't go too high. But if he really wants to lower the price of salt to ten dollars, unless Chen Xi guarantees it by force and completely unifies it, once this daily necessity  If someone monopolizes it, it will be really fatal if the price rises.

    As for using grain as a guarantee, it is actually possible. This thing is also hard currency, but the biggest problem with this thing is that the same weight of grain is larger than copper, and it is difficult to transport. Moreover, grain has problems of preservation, so it is quite useless.  Reliable.

    "You can escort those copper ingots to the Zhen family courtyard that was vacated before and send someone to take a look at them. Anyway, you have toIt¡¯s not that easy to move around, so remember to stack them well.  "Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Xi's mind. After coming to his senses, he ordered Gan Ning that these things are mainly used to enlighten other aristocratic families.

    "Here!" Gan Ning cupped his fists and saluted, then hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then I'm going to transport the copper ingots over there. I just want to ask, why hasn't the bank moved over yet? What happened?"

    "Actually, it's not too important. I'll send people to Yizhou, Yangzhou, and Yongzhou to discuss with those people the issue of selling goods in banks." Chen Xi said calmly.

    Economically, let¡¯s complete the unification first. As for the reasons given by Chen Xi, it is not certain whether Cao Cao and Sun Ce can agree.

    But it doesn¡¯t matter. After all, this is just a test. Even if Cao Cao and Sun Ce disagree, things that are similar to banks in private will spring up like mushrooms after a rain after the family realizes the convenience of banks, and they cannot be stopped at all. And after this proposal  , Cao Cao and Sun Ce will inevitably do it.

    It¡¯s just that the recognition of the bank built on the reputation of Cao Cao and Sun Ce is the biggest problem. In the end, it is inevitable that aristocratic families will get together to establish a bank with the names of Cao Cao and Sun Ce.

    When the time comes, as soon as the two banks come into contact, Chen Xi, as the entity of the credit certificate, will be able to turn Cao and Sun's banks into his subordinates in seconds. There is no way to stop this kind of thing.

    By that time, it is estimated that Cao Cao and Sun Ce will either directly force the bank to push the bank, or they can only admit it with their noses pinched, and then spend a lot of manpower and material resources to monitor the bank that does nothing else.

    After all, unlike Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Sun Ce have no way to break away from the aristocratic family. If they really want to forcefully overthrow the aristocratic family group's bank, it is estimated that it will not be far away from the two sides breaking up and playing together. Chen Xi is just a greeting in advance.  (~^~)
