Chapter 626 The wolf is here

This unexpected turmoil did not affect the mood of Jiang Chuan and others too much.

Of course, Ji Biao was the only one whose mood was most affected.What makes him depressed is that today he lost face in front of Jiang Chuan and his brothers, and a woman easily caught his menacing punch, and even bounced himself back, which was simply unacceptable in the past imagination.

However, he had heard of inner masters before, and knew that inner masters had cultivated true qi and inner energy, and they were definitely not something fighters like them who relied entirely on physical strength could shake alone.

Jiang Chuan didn't blame him either, but he himself had always been a bit brooding.

The store clerk, who was scared to the side just now, became more attentive, and quickly arranged accommodation for Jiang Chuan and his party, and delivered meals.

Naturally, Jiang Chuan also gave him some rewards, but they were not gold and silver but French currency.

The store clerk was taken aback when he saw the French currency presented by the majestic nobleman in front of him, then quickly accepted it, and thanked Jiang Chuan with a smile.

"My lord and everyone, please use it slowly. If you need anything, you can ring this bell at any time, and the villain will be there immediately." The store clerk bowed and said courteously.

"Wait a minute, little brother. I want to know, do you recognize what you have in your hand?" Jiang Chuan asked, pointing to the French currency in the second-hand store.

"Of course I recognize it. This is a banknote issued by the imperial court. The official name is French currency, but we all call it new banknote." The store clerk said with a smile.

"New notes? Why is it called new notes?" Jiang Chuan asked curiously.

"Young Master should know that at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu issued precious banknotes, but in the end it was worthless because of excessive issuance, and became waste paper. Now the imperial court is issuing banknotes again, so everyone calls them new banknotes."

"I see. So how is the new banknote circulating in Jining City?" Jiang Chuan nodded and asked again.

"Half and half. The imperial court also set up a branch of Zhongzhou Bank in our city, requiring everyone to exchange their gold and silver into new banknotes. The government also issued a notice, requiring that gold, silver and copper coins should not be used for payment. Violators will be severely punished." However, the big guys are still worried that the new banknotes will turn into precious banknotes in the end, so they exchanged a small amount to meet the inspection by the government. However, the government can't control so much after all, and everyone is still trading with gold, silver and copper coins in private. "

Seeing Jiang Chuan being so friendly, the store clerk felt that he had opened up the chatter box.

When Bai Jinxiu and the others heard this, they couldn't help but frowned, and looked at Jiang Chuan worriedly.

Everyone knows very well that the promotion of legal currency is the new policy that Jiang Chuan attaches the most importance to. Now that Jining City is acting like this, how can he not be furious?
Jiang Chuan was very calm, and asked again: "Then brother, you are not afraid that if you accept my new money, you will not be able to spend it?"

The young man smiled and said, "Young Master, I don't know. Although everyone regards gold and silver as treasures, they all know that the new banknotes are light and easy to carry around. The most important thing is that if you want to exchange gold and silver Silver, the bank will exchange it directly, it is enough gold and two, and it will never be perfunctory. Therefore, more and more people use this new banknote now. After all, the big guys are not blind, and they can see the value of this new banknote benefit."

After asking the clerk a few more words, Jiang Chuan let him go down.

Looking back at everyone's expressions, Jiang Chuan was taken aback, and then laughed: "Why do you all look at me like that?"

"Everyone is afraid that you will be angry because of what this guy said just now. After all, this legal currency is the new policy you have been vigorously promoting." Bai Jinxiu laughed.

"I had expected this kind of situation a long time ago. It was like this when the capital was first implemented. People seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. If you don't use French currency, you are worried that the legal currency will depreciate and become the same as the Ming Dynasty's precious banknotes. But as long as the court does not abuse The issuance of legal currency can insist on the exchange of gold and gold, so that the credibility of the imperial court will gradually be established. The people will naturally value the convenience of legal currency more, and everything will be a matter of course. To put it bluntly, the credibility of the imperial court is fundamental , Laws and punishments are just auxiliary means.”

Jiang Chuan explained.

Everyone showed what they were thinking about, especially Liu Yong.

Liu Rushi looked at Jiang Chuan with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

"If people don't have faith, they don't know what to do. This is especially true for the court. If the decree is changed from day to day, and the law is arbitrary, it will gradually lose the credibility and authority of the court, and the people will naturally lose their sense of awe. The wolf came and the child inside was finally eaten by the wolf."

Liu Rushi asked curiously, "My lord, what's the story of the wolf coming?"

Jiang Chuan was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he had slipped his tongue, so he told the story of the wolf again.

"This kid really deserved to die, he really deserves it." Bai Jinxiu said after hearing this.

"That's right, no one who cheats will end well." Liu Rushi also echoed.

"I've been cheating since I was a child, but I'll pay it back when I grow up."

"Steal needles when you are young, steal gold when you are young, and you will definitely be a criminal when you grow up."

"That's right, it's better to let the wolf eat it."

A group of people discussed it, and after a while Jiang Chuan found that the building was crooked. He was dumbfounded and expressed dissatisfaction with the woman's association ability.

They lived in a relatively independent small courtyard. After everyone had finished eating, Ji Biao led people to arrange guarding tasks, and Jiang Chuan returned to his room.

After staying on the boat for a day, I felt a little tired. I rang the bell under the table in the room, and soon a shop assistant came over.

Jiang Chuan asked them to prepare a large bucket of hot water, and took a nice bath, feeling refreshed.

After taking a bath, with her hair loose and a loose Taoist robe, she sat at the table and practiced brush calligraphy.

Now he has to practice calligraphy for a while every day. Every time he practices calligraphy, he feels that his state of mind can calm down quickly, so he slowly enjoys this feeling.

After practicing calligraphy for a while, there was a knock on the door.

It was Bai Jinxiu who came in.

She also looked like she had just taken a shower. Although she was neatly dressed and her hair was combed, her bright red cheeks and still damp hair proved this.

Under the light, it looked even more beautiful, which made Jiang Chuan unable to move his eyes away for a while.

"It's really more attractive for a beauty to come out of the bath." Jiang Chuan couldn't help but praise.

Bai Jinxiu's face turned redder, but the shy smile on the corners of her mouth grew even wider.

Jiang Chuan held her hand, and the two sat down around the table.

"Xiaowen is back?" Jiang Chuan asked.

"Well, she just came back, and the situation is a bit complicated. I told her to keep watching those people, and I'll tell you what the Black Ice Platform has found so far." Bai Jinxiu nodded and said.

Complicated?This thing looks interesting.Jiang Chuan tapped his fingers on the table, a thoughtful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
