Chapter 580 Construction of the Mint

As Jiangdong copper ore became more and more famous, Chen Chong suddenly thought, since the local copper ore is of good quality and smooth and delicate, why not build a mint in Jiangdong? It is specially used for national copper coins.

So Chen Chong summoned the ministers to express their thoughts and watched what they had suggestions. After listening to the group of officials, there was a lot of discussion, and the opinions were divergent.

Army Master Xun You was the first to stand up and say:



“Your Majesty, the matter of coining coins is no trivial matter. It needs to be done with caution and secretly. The fewer people who know, the better. Secondly, Jiangdong’s copper ore is really exquisite, and it is of course great to use it to create copper coins! But it also has it. Its two sides.

“Everything has advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantages of coining are first, to prevent the leakage of the mint, which will cause the theft of bad guys. Second, if there are too many copper coins exposed, some people will cast counterfeit coins, which will disrupt the market order in 03. ”

Lu Xun also said:

“Your Majesty, what the military division has said is that we can first proceed with caution, conduct small-scale experiments, and expand if it is safe and feasible. In this way, the problems of leakage and theft can be avoided.”

General Gan Ning said:

“Your Majesty, the drawbacks mentioned by the military division are actually easy to deal with. We can send some troops to guard around, so that generally no one dares to destroy it!”

Upon hearing this, Chen Chong felt that what everyone said was reasonable and said:

“Okay! Just do what you want.”

The next day Chen Chong personally led a team of Yulin Army, accompanied by Zhao Yun, to Jiangdong again. When he came to the mine, the boss saw Chen Chong coming again.

“Your Majesty, is there any new policy? Caomin must implement it to the full. Resolutely respond to the call of the country.

Chen Chong looked around and asked:

“There are no outsiders here, so I’ll tell you directly! I am going to build a mint in your place. Simply put, you will use your copper ore to make a part of copper coins for currency circulation. This matter needs a secret. Go ahead, do you understand?”

When the boss heard this, he immediately got into a cold sweat and asked:

“Your Majesty, I understand, but I don’t know how to do it. Please tell me. I will strictly enforce it.”

Chen Chong glanced at his boss approvingly and said:

“Okay! Conscious, this matter is the top secret, so you must not disclose it. If anyone reveals his mouth, he must be severely punished. In addition, I will send you a team of Imperial Forest Army, commanded by Zhao Yun, what is going on? , You two discuss it.

“The most important thing is that only a few of us know about this. In the future, when you recruit people to make copper coins, you must find out their details, try to find some reliable people, and the newcomers must be registered in the register, just in case.”

“Your Majesty, rest assured, I will strictly follow your instructions, and if there are any consequences, I am willing to take responsibility.”

Chen Chong nodded in satisfaction, and was about to go back. Before leaving, he asked Zhao Yunduo to cooperate with the boss, and Zhao Yun also agreed! After Chen Chong returned, the boss set about building a mint. The boss first hired a group of ordinary people and asked them to rebuild a new yard.

In order to be safer, the fence was deliberately heightened to one foot. Next is the issue of choosing mint workers. The boss deliberately selected eight people who know the roots and know the bottom line and who usually seem to be honest and accommodating as the new mint workers.

That day the boss called eight people together for a meeting and said:

“This place you are in is the most secret place in the country. Because it produces copper coins, I hope you don’t say anything when you go out, and don’t discuss it with others. The one sentence is to put what you see and what you hear. In the belly, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

“If you find someone chewing your tongue outside, or leaking the secrets here, I don’t need to say what the end is, everyone will understand.”

“Boss”, please rest assured, we must strictly comply with it and will never reveal the least bit of information to the outside world.

“Boss, we know the country’s self-consciousness, so we will never hold back. For this, I will take 557 lives to guarantee.”

Boss, “Everyone is an adult, so don’t worry! If we find anyone leaking secrets, we won’t agree to him.”

The boss looked at everyone’s performance and smiled with relief! This scene happened to be seen by Zhao Yun, who was passing by, and Zhao Yun couldn’t help but admire the boss. He did have a set of management personnel.

The boss arranged for Zhao Yun and the others a row of houses on the east side of the yard for them to live in. The purpose is to allow them to better observe the suspicious persons. The terrain here is open, and any wind and grass can be seen at a glance.

The boss deliberately set up a sentry on the gate, so that the Imperial Forest Army can clearly see the five kilometers in the yard and outside the gate. If a bad person enters, you can find it in the watchtower the first time.

The boss came to see Zhao Yun that day, and Zhao Yun warmly welcomed him in and asked:

“It seems that the boss is not busy today? I usually see you running around, and I don’t even have time to say hello.”
