Chapter 45: More money but the same goods can only cause inflation (please read more!)
"By the way, how are things going with your second son and the little princess?"

Xiao Han, who was about to leave the palace, turned to look at Zhu Biao again and asked curiously.

"Well, since we talked last time, the second son's dislike for the little princess has been reduced a lot. We get along harmoniously, but his personality is a bit contradictory."

Zhu Biao nodded and replied softly.

Zhu Feng was really honest this time, and he also met Minmin Timur. Except for his personality, which was a bit conflicting, he was quite satisfied with him in other aspects.

"normal."

"After all, the little princess is a woman from the Northern Yuan Dynasty, a nomadic tribe, and has a strong personality, which is normal."

"As for King Qin's character, there is no need to say much. You and I both understand that, except for the old man, King Qin has the most explosive temper."

Xiao Han suddenly showed an expression that was indeed the case, and then smiled slightly again.

Zhu Ping's current personality is just fiery, but in the future, he will be truly brutal. He will kill people when he goes out, which is not a myth.

Besides, the little princess of Beiyuan, the sister of Wang Baobao, is also from the grassland. She has been pampered since she was a child, so her personality is naturally equally fiery.

Therefore, the collision of the two will definitely stir up waves, but nothing is absolute. And in history, Minmin Timur, since marrying Zhu Ping, has been gentle and virtuous, showing the dignity of the princess. In the end, he left with Zhu Ping. Just for these two points, Zhu Ping married Minmin Timur, and it was definitely a bloody profit.

"Well, I'm too lazy to care about them."

Zhu Biao waved his hand. Anyway, the marriage has been decided, so Zhu Xiang cannot be allowed to make the decision. And if he can't even control his own wife, then at most he will be as strict as his father about wife control.

However, after thinking about it in the blink of an eye, this is not bad. Someone is taking care of Zhu Chong, and Zhu Chong will not let himself go, so let nature take its course.

After all, there is a precedent in Lao Zhu's family, and it was a precedent set by Emperor Taizu, the founding emperor of the country. Naturally, no one dares to gossip.

"Why don't you want the old man to step in and reform currency transactions?"

After a long time, Zhu Biao stopped, looked at Xiao Han in front of him, and couldn't help but say.

"Ok?"

"I knew you wouldn't be able to help but ask me."

A smile appeared on Xiao Han's lips, and then he stopped, looked at Zhu Biao and asked, "How do you think Jiaozi in the Northern Song Dynasty and Chao in the Yuan Dynasty declined?"

"Because it's flooding."

Zhu Biao thought for a moment, then looked at Xiao Han and said.

"Yes."

"Let's talk about the Northern Song Dynasty first. They issued Jiaozi as a substitute currency for the convenience of transactions, but in essence, Jiaozi was not silver."

"It's just a deposit certificate belonging to the Northern Song Dynasty. As long as you hold Jiaozi, you can exchange it for silver. If the court comes forward, people will naturally be willing to use Jiaozi."

"But these all belong to the court's credibility, and if it is abused, it will be like the banknotes of the Yuan Dynasty. Because of the massive printing by the court, the banknotes were completely reduced to waste paper."

"So, the Yuan Dynasty has lost its credibility, and even if it wants to restore it, it will be of no avail. The people don't buy it. What should you do?"

Xiao Han leaned against the wall of the palace, looked at Zhu Biao who was meditating, and smiled again.

"At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the people were poor and everything was in ruins. If we repeat the same mistakes, it will be difficult to recover."

Although Zhu Biao didn't want to admit it, he had to admit it and nodded.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's stubbornness is obvious to all. If he tastes the sweetness, and he is not allowed to print more money, the credibility of the Ming Dynasty will be completely lost. From now on, if he wants to reform the currency trading system, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky. Impossible.

"The transformation of the currency trading system cannot be completed overnight."

"With His Majesty's style of doing things, he must issue an imperial edict, which is to exchange gold and silver in the hands of the people with currencies of equal value." "Anyway, as long as all the money in the world is in the Ming Dynasty treasury, it is not His Majesty's say how much it will issue. thing?"

"As for resistance, there must be some, but the fighting power of Huaixi nobles is obvious to everyone. Isn't suppression just a casual matter?"

"Even if you kill 10,000+, Your Majesty will never be ambiguous. After all, if this thing is done, Ming Dynasty will basically not have to worry about money. So, killing 10,000+, what is it?"

Xiao Han shrugged his shoulders.

This was the style of Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's work. To achieve his goals, he would do whatever it took, and as long as the result was what he wanted, that would be enough.

But is this really possible?

From Zhu Yuanzhang's point of view, that is certainly possible. After all, the person who can become the emperor is not ruthless, and Zhu Yuanzhang is still the best among them.

But from the perspective of Xiao Han and Zhu Biao, this is tantamount to robbing the people. Moreover, the rebellion is small and the Ming Dynasty can suppress it. Who makes Huaixi noble and no weaklings.

But in the next ten years, Ming Dynasty will not have to do anything, and forget about development. That will be a devastating blow.

Especially at this time, when the Yuan Dynasty had just experienced the chaos of the last years, the world, which was already severely weakened, was experiencing a war, which would be an unprecedented disaster for the people.

"Ah."

"This is my father."

Zhu Biao opened his mouth, but nodded weakly.

"Then you can't exchange the world's gold and silver at double the value?"

Zhu Biao raised his head again, looked at Xiao Han and said.

"Are you out of your mind? Can these words come out of your mouth?"

Xiao Han immediately looked at Zhu Biao and his eyes widened.

This turned out to be what Zhu Biao said!
"Cough cough."

But Zhu Biao didn't think anything was wrong. Since the Ming Dynasty couldn't do the economic equalization, then it would be better to double the compensation to the people, increase the credibility of the Ming Dynasty, and give them double compensation. Wouldn't it be okay?
"Indeed, you gathered all the gold and silver in the world into the imperial court, and then issued double the currency based on these."

"But have you ever thought that having a deposit that far exceeds the national treasury is equivalent to making something out of nothing? It does not relieve the pressure on the court, but increases the pressure on the court."

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Biao angrily and said.

"why?"

Zhu Biao said with a flash of doubt in his eyes.

"The total value of currency has doubled, but the quantities of grain, cloth, salt, iron, and other goods in our Ming Dynasty are still the same."

"Then what's the difference between the next step and the Yuan Dynasty's printing of currency?"

"The total amount of goods has not changed, but the currency in hand has doubled, which will cause prices to skyrocket."

"Then for the expense of the court and the people, we have to continue to print more currency until it is overrun as you said and the currency is reduced to waste paper."

"Then this isn't a repeat of the past?"

"Isn't this the old way of the Yuan Dynasty?"

Xiao Han still looked at Zhu Biao angrily and explained.

When measuring currency, you must estimate the value of goods in the market to form equal values. Otherwise, even if you pull a cart of currency, you will not be able to buy a load of grain. Then the reform is nonsense, and it is better to continue the old system.

　Brothers, I'm here again, hey, I still beg for monthly votes and recommended votes, I beg on my knees, thank you brothers!
