Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 374
"Understood." The prince nodded, knowing that this was a big deal.

The Six Great Dukes of Ming Dynasty are the Six Great Mountains.The line of Wei Guogong can be regarded as the third largest mountain in the army, second only to Wei Guogong and Zheng Guogong's line.It is stronger than Cao Guogong's family who are in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Moreover, Zheng Guogong Chang Mao himself was young, arrogant and unreasonable, but his father Chang Yuchun had many generals under his command. These people basically became princelings, and Chang Mao was just a mascot.

In addition, Wei Guogong has become the fourth father-in-law, and Song Guogong will soon become the fifth father-in-law.

It is imperative to firmly grasp the family of Wei Guogong.So for this expedition, the second child must go.

~~
The father and father agreed on the policy of sending troops, and Zhu Biao went on to report that Zhu Zhen was not interested in these bullshit things, and he didn't dare to interrupt, so he could only lie there drowsy.

It wasn't until he heard his eldest brother talk about the use of the treasury by the Ministry of Households and the collection and exchange of banknotes that he suddenly regained his energy.

The sixth child's perception of the Daming banknotes has changed.

The original stereotype is that big money is a treasure, failure, rubbish, worthless, and it is too hard to wipe your ass... Later generations laughed at Boss Zhu for not understanding economics and finance, so he must use this as an example.

At the beginning of the issuance of the treasure banknotes, the people's rejection reaction seemed to confirm his impression.

However, in the past two years since the issuance of the treasure banknotes, Lao Liu was surprised to find that, at least for now, the effect of issuing banknotes is surprisingly good.

Before that, the biggest problem of the Ming Dynasty was lack of money.

In the past, although the Yuan Dynasty collapsed quickly, the escape was planned for a long time.They were like Captain Jiang of the later generations, before they retreated to Mobei, they swept away all the valuable things in the north, especially the treasury and the gold and silver of the people, almost completely.

They searched well and left no regrets. Boss Zhu's Ming Dynasty would be embarrassing.

If the country has no money, it can't do anything about farmland water conservancy or national construction.

The common people have no money in their hands, and rely entirely on barter. All business and trade are closed, and the national economy has almost stagnated.

In order to solve the money shortage, Boss Zhu tried every means, and even forcibly expropriated the bronze wares from the common people's homes to make coins.

But it's still a drop in the bucket, to no avail.As a result, there has been a lack of money and absurd phenomenon of people drawing fake money by themselves...

It can be said that if the problem of money shortage is not solved quickly, the new Ming Dynasty will die in chaos instead of poverty.

As a result, the issuance of Daming Treasure Banknotes actually solved this big problem!
Just ask you if the treasure is money, right?

Yes, that's it.Who dare not accept?kill him!
Once the court can print its own money, it will finally have money to spend.Farmland water conservancy and national construction can all be carried out.

In particular, the largest military expenditure, as soon as the military needs are supplied with money and food, it is almost entirely paid for by precious money.It can be said that without the Daming banknotes, there would be no Northern Expedition of Wei Guogong, and the emperor and his son would not have the confidence to plan any Western Expedition!
As for the common people, through the compulsory payment by the imperial court, they also have money in their hands.Daming treasure banknotes are always more exquisite than my own paintings, right?
Besides, in order to promote the treasure banknotes, the imperial court also formulated unprecedented strict management measures.If you dare to forge precious banknotes, even one will be beheaded.Gold and silver transactions are also prohibited. Anyone who dares to use gold and silver in violation of regulations will have their property confiscated.

Under such tough measures by Boss Zhu, the Daming banknotes swept across the provinces and counties like a flood, allowing the people to have money... It can be said that the long drought has met with rain, so the circulation resumed, the industry and commerce quickly improved, and the economy Rapid recovery at a speed visible to the naked eye.

~~
So from the current point of view, the precious banknotes have played an excellent role, and they have basically not depreciated.

But, you must not mess around, messing around will kill people, and it is the kind that can never be recovered...

So as soon as the old thief and his eldest brother talked about dumping banknotes, Zhu Zhen became vigilant.

He heard the prince relay the suggestions of Hu Weiyong and the Ministry of Household Affairs, and then the eldest brother stated that he did not agree with the collection of labor costs.think it should be free
The common people trade in the old for the new.

Sure enough, Boss Zhu was not happy. "Boss, you really don't know the price of firewood and rice. Do you know how much it costs to print a banknote? You have to use high-quality mulberry paper. This paper alone is worth the money. Not to mention the engraving and ink. Specially made, these are all money.

"The cost of a banknote is at least 30 Wen, and the imperial court sends out tens of millions of banknotes a year, which is [-] guan! Can such a large amount of money be avoided?" Zhu Yuanzhang taught Zhu Biao:
"Besides, you don't have to pay for labor and ink. The Banknote Bureau of the Ministry of Industry will only lose money when printing banknotes in the future. The quality of printing will definitely deteriorate. Ordinary people will die after a few days. Who will use precious banknotes at that time?"

"What my father taught me is..." Zhu Biao is also a layman when it comes to new things like treasure banknotes.Hearing what his father said so convincingly, he wondered if he had oversimplified the question.

"No, father taught me wrong!" Zhu Zhen finally couldn't help saying: "Brother, you were right in the first place!"

"You know what a fart!" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't hold back immediately, and wanted to get the wattle, but the prince took it away in advance.

"I don't understand, but my master understands!" The sixth child took out his God Master card.

"Then tell me, why did we teach you something wrong?" Boss Zhu suppressed his anger and asked in a muffled voice.

"The reason is very simple. The emperor enforces that the precious banknotes be used as envoys!" Zhu Zhen taught the old Zhu in the name of a teacher:
"And it also stipulates that the denomination of the treasure banknote is equal to one thousand copper coins, or one tael of silver! May I ask my father, is this a permanent rule, or will it change?"

"Of course it is a permanent regulation." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a dark face: "This is the law of the ages. It is related to the money of the people and the reputation of the court. How can it be changed overnight?"

"That's a good point! However, no matter if it's copper coins or silver, it won't change after ten or 100 years. But the Daming banknotes will be damaged and rotted very quickly. To put it bluntly, it's just a piece of paper! "Zhu Zhen said loudly:

"Now, less than two years after the issuance of precious banknotes, faint banknotes have appeared. The faint banknotes are difficult to prevent forgery, so they have to go to the government to exchange for new banknotes. In the end, they have to pay another 970 cash to exchange for a new banknote. That is to say, the common people have worked so hard to earn the consistent treasure banknotes, but they have not bought anything, and there are only [-] coins left!

"Excuse me, father, is the consistent denomination of banknotes equal to one thousand copper coins?!" Zhu Zhen asked loudly: "According to the frequency of changing every two years. After 33 times of fainting, that is, after 66 years, Yiguanbao The value of the banknote will be only ten coins left!
"And one thousand copper coins, 66 years later, will still be one thousand! Father, is this the law of the ages? Is this the result of the people's trust in our old Zhu family?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was dumbfounded and could not refute...
