245 Silver Note

"Is this?" Many people were surprised... Read the latest and most complete novel

Is Bai Minghe privately printing treasure money? This is a serious crime of raiding the house and extermination of the clan. Even the treasure money has almost stopped printing now. The original treasure money is as cheap as paper, and the people keep away from the treasure money.

"I have seen that Baiminghe originally had a type of 100,000 taels, which can only be used twice. It is used for merchants to pay the bill. But this seems to be used repeatedly. The Forbidden City printed on the front has a quantity of silver on the back. It is not too much to say that it is a treasure banknote. Don't you explain it to me?" Yu Qian asked calmly and calmly.

What's this?

Bai Minghe knew clearly that this thing was a silver note, but this was not a silver note like the Ming Dynasty that was as cheap as paper.

This is real, with his reputation as a guaranteed silver note.

How can I tell the truth when it is explained?

"Sir Yu, this was originally used for settlement in Guangzhou, Fuzhou, Hepu and Da Nang. At the beginning, merchants pulled carriages and loaded the whole truck of silver to the dock to buy goods. The silver was lost and the quality was different. It was also very inconvenient to settle the settlement. Because in Guangzhou, a batch of goods worth 1,000 taels a day is settled for hundreds of transactions, which is 1,000 taels a day, and there are also a few transactions a day. It is always very troublesome."

Bai Minghe explained this, and the officials could understand it.

How much does ten thousand taels of silver weigh? The weight of modern times is 373 kilograms. Adding to the wooden box containing silver, it is at least 450 kilograms. A carriage is filled with silver and nine large wooden boxes.

Not to mention ten thousand taels, it is only one thousand taels. It is too hard to carry seventy or eighty kilograms on your body and squeeze back and forth on the dock.

"After that, in Chunhui Garden, the merchants piled the silver into my warehouse, and then I used this kind of ticket. They could go to the dock to settle the bill. Ten thousand taels of silver is the thickness of a book, just stuff it in my arms. The silver notes on my side are only one hundred taels, fifty taels, ten taels and three kinds. Ten taels are small tickets, only the size of a palm. The shipments on the dock are all military ships. They took the ticket back to me and took the silver away."

"It seems different from Baochao." Hu Yi commented.

"It's different. This is really exchanged for silver, and a ticket can be used to take away the silver here. However, when paying the bank, the quality and size are different. I have re-melted all of them. All silver bars are divided into one or ten taels of silver bars, which are of sufficient quality and weight. If the silver brought by the merchants are not good, they have to pay the difference."

There seems to be nothing wrong. The white-named crane is just convenient for Guangzhou Pier.

Bai Minghe saw that the officials agreed, so he continued to speak.

"But in recent days, there have been some changes. Some merchants started to check in Fuzhou with silver notes. Fuzhou also recognized my ticket and asked me to exchange for silver. Until yesterday, something small happened that was not big."

"What's the matter?" Several people spoke.

"There was a merchant who used a silver note of ten taels. He bought a piece of silk from another merchant at Humen Wharf. The one who took out the silver note was a porcelain merchant, and the one who checked the cash note was a silk merchant. They would bring more money every time they exchanged at the wharf. They were afraid that they would return the goods during the inspection, so they brought more more to supplement it. But the extra one, the porcelain merchant who collected the silver note from the wharf and directly bought a small forty-foot Huzhou silk with ten taels of silver on the wharf."

The white-famous crane specifically emphasized Huzhou silk.

The silks in the Ming Dynasty were very different. The silk fabrics in each region had their own characteristics. The same piece was calculated using seventy taels of raw silk. The width of Ninghai was two feet, one inch and five feet, and the length was fifty-five feet. This belonged to heavy silk. The silk in Nanshan was two feet, six inches wide, and the length was about one hundred and thirty feet, which was light silk.

The heavy silk and light silk in the Ming Dynasty were similar to the standards of later generations, but the difference was that the weight of the Ming Dynasty was calculated using a square foot.

Huzhou silk. One piece of 40 feet but uses 63 taels of material, which is thicker than Ninghai heavier silk. One piece of 10 taels of silver is not expensive at all. The white-famous crane emphasizes Huzhou silk. The first thing to say is that this is a fair transaction.

But what needs to be noticed is that the use of not cash silver, but the silver notes used by Baiminghe to settle the bill.

"It's better for the Zajia to arrange some people to check in detail to see how many people in Guangzhou use the white-named Heroes to spend money on your silver bill? The Zajiajia only knows that someone from Piaoxuelou used the silver bill to pay for the wine."

"No need to check it, everyone knows about the precious money as cheap as paper in the Ming Dynasty. But this silver note cannot be faked. Xiangbi Baiminghe has been constantly improving and improving the printing process. If someone can imitate it, it is afraid it will be difficult. This silver note is very convenient. If someone uses it, a large number of people will soon use it. I just don't know, what is Mr. Hu talking about it?"

Xu Yi was speaking for Bai Minghe, and his meaning was very clear.

Hu Yi, you will not ask Bai Minghe to submit this again. If this is submitted, it will affect the maritime trade in Guangzhou.

"The family thinks that it is a good idea to recommend Baiming He as the head of the East Factory."

"No!" The white-known crane jumped up like a cat with a trampled tail. The East Factory Supervisor, would you want to cut yourself?

"Deputy Governor, you don't need to cut it from the fourth-rank military position. This silver goods matter is always so restless without a steel knife. Dongchang is the Dongchang, and the family will collect the Baiminghe for Wansui. The treasure banknote can be stopped. The printed and issued in the past can be exchanged according to the current market price. The losses will naturally not be released. Then the Baiminghe from Dongchang will come out!"

How many treasure money is there?

The white-named crane didn't even dare to think about it.

"Not too much, 100 million guanbaobao may be the largest inventory on the market now. For the current price of 100 million guanbaobaobao, you only need to take out 1 million guanbaobao. Is this one million guanbaobaobao worth your white crane? Is this one million guanbaobao worth more?" Is Hu Yi's words too much? Many people laughed.

One million stone of rice is enough, is that a little bit?

In fact, the real amount is huge. If calculated based on the silver, the treasure banknotes issued by the Ming Dynasty would have at least nearly 100 million taels of silver. However, when Xuande Nian Bao Bank was the cheapest, Yiguan Bao Bank was only worth five big money, which is one-two percent of the value.

During the Zhengtong period, the value of Baochao fluctuated for two reasons. One was printed less and less, and the other was that many of the Baochao were not easy to preserve and were completely damaged.

"Then, it's changed!" Bai Minghe's heart moved. This incident could indirectly hit Shi Heng.

The biggest business in the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou is that they collect silver and copper coins from passing ships, while the treasure banknotes are handed over to the national treasury. They are constantly collecting treasure banknotes, and the price difference is very huge.

If the treasure banknote is cut off, the Grand Canal will have to pay the money.

I don’t know how Shi Heng will deal with it at that time.

Seeing Bai Minghe squinting his eyes and laughing, Hu Yi said again: "Since Bai Minghe has no objection, then the official will write a letter. Next year's spring tax treasure banknotes can match the grain tax, and one hundred jin of treasure banknotes are combined with one stone grain. Although the price comparison for the nine years of Zhengtong is already this price comparison, and Baochao Banknotes are no longer available at present. As the saying goes: the market is accumulated and the people are not taken care of. However, they are also silver banknotes of the court. They cannot be abandoned for term of office. This time, the recycling will benefit the people and the country. Your Bai Minghe will definitely make a contribution in history books."

It seems to be a good thing.

The white-known crane could not find a reason to object.

But why did these civil servants not react at all when Xing'an pulled himself into the East Factory?

Or, you are a disaster, and becoming a member of the Dongchang allows them to save some effort. Or maybe you just want to harm the Dongchang?

This question made Bai Minghe very confused, but no one gave him an answer.

For several days, Bai Minghe wanted to talk to Yu Qian, but Yu Qian kept avoiding himself. Even if he saw Yu Qian, there would be other people around Yu Qian, so Bai Minghe would not have a chance to talk alone.

Finally, the Japanese left and left with satisfaction.

The Japanese who stayed in Guangdong were all good Japanese. As Bai Minghe said, the dead Japanese were the Japanese.

Standing in the place where the Japanese had lived, it is now being converted into a new martial arts venue. There is still some black soil on the ground, and the white-named crane knows that it is blood.

I don’t know what they spilled here, but I can’t smell the blood anyway.

"Xiaobai. You seem to be in a bad mood these days. Let me tell you. You can't take over the raw silk matter. You can't afford tens of millions of taels of silver. If you dare to swallow it yourself, you will probably be jealous of the entire Ming Dynasty. There will be countless people who hope to kill you and replace you. Mr. Hu and I just want to fight for you some benefits."

Yang Neng started talking a few dozen steps away from Bai Minghe.

There is no one else around here, and no one can come in.

"I'm thinking..." Bai Minghe really didn't know how to speak. Can you tell Yang Neng about his East Factory? How much can he say? How to speak?

Yang Neng sucked his nose twice: "I killed a lot, but I heard that it was 4,086. It was really the same as Xiaobai, you said. To kill more than 4,000 Japanese people, the difference is that we are not us, but the Japanese people themselves."

Standing beside Bai Minghe, Yang Neng handed a bottle of strong wine to Bai Minghe: "We have discussed the silver notes these days, which is a good thing. But it is not anyone who can control it. What is the East Factory? The two biggest benefits of Dongchang are: one is a group of people who can kill people, and the other is the network that is not visible throughout the Ming Dynasty."

Bai Minghe was surprised to hear that Yang Nengtou Factory was mentioned.

"If you don't say it, it means you can't see through it. I'll teach you a trick. It's not wrong to hold your life in your hands, but there are some people who send their lives to others. Only when you figure this out, you can go further. Sometimes it's safer to hand over your life to others, and it's easier to master it yourself."

Yang Neng woke up the white-famous crane in one sentence.

"Mr. Yang, are you talking..." Yang Neng didn't give Bai Minghe a chance to speak, but just shook his head.

Bai Minghe understood, but Yang could tell him a way to protect himself.
