Chapter 1061 Dayue Money Ticket (Part 2)

Everyone had already guessed what Li Ling was trying to discuss with him, so after hearing this statement, there was no big surprise change, but after looking at each other, he fell into silence.

No one responded, and no one objected. Obviously, he still wanted to hear what other party could say. However, the distrust revealed in their eyes could still clearly capture that it was quite unfavorable to this.

"It seems that you still have some doubts about me, Li Ling." Seeing them like this, Li Ling sighed in dismay.

"I dare not. Lord Li forgives the crime. I must not believe you. I have never had this money before, and it is not as reassuring as the copper coins, gold and silver used on weekdays, so I naturally hesitated." After looking at everyone, Boss Jin took the lead in speaking.

His words were exactly what others were concerned about, and at this time they nodded in agreement: "Mr. Li, I can't believe you, it's really money and this thing..."

"It's not wrong for you to have any concerns. When we are doing business, we should naturally be safe." Li Ling nodded with understanding, "But you are afraid that you are wrong. In fact, the practice of replacing copper coins, gold and silver with paper money is not a new creation now. As early as the Song Dynasty, some people have been popular in Bashu for a while. And then there are the silver notes that have been in the market all over the country. In fact, the same is true. Those silver notes are also a piece of paper, but they can be worth hundreds or thousands of silver. Isn't this the same as my big Yue money notes?"

"This... is a little different, right?" A businessman said with courage. It was Boss Liao, who has more than ten silver bank houses in Jingji. "We issued a silver bill because customers had already saved the silver in our shop, which could be used at any time. So turning the silver into silver bills is just to facilitate merchants to carry the silver and go elsewhere. But Lord Li's money bill came out of thin air, which is really hard to convince people."

This sentence naturally reached the key point, and other merchants nodded and agreed. Even if they were not open silver accounts, they still understood the reason for the circulation of silver notes.

Li Ling did not feel any displeasure at the questioning of everyone. He still smiled and nodded and said, "You are also worried about your concerns, but you have thought about it. Since this money ticket was issued in the name of the court, how could it be that there was no preparation? To be honest, this money ticket is linked to the national treasury and the treasury and silver of various prefectures. In other words, when the court sets up a newly established ticket house, it can be exchanged for equal amounts of silver and money, which is actually no essential difference from the silver ticket you use on weekdays."

"Ah..." Everyone's expression changed. Unexpectedly, the court's move this time was so big that they actually tied the treasury and the silver and money in the government treasury with this small money ticket.

Li Ling simply said it out: "To be honest, the court has issued an order to open a ticket shop for redemption of money in all prefectures. If business can be better in the future, it may even be opened to the county town.

"And this is done to facilitate the trading and trading business of the people all over the world. Think about it, although this silver bill is labor-saving and safer than carrying a large amount of gold, silver and copper coins, it also has considerable shortcomings. For example, if this silver bill is within the range of the silver bill, it is still a piece of paper.

I can't repay a penny at all. Boss Liao, your shop is located in Jingji, but if I want to use your silver notes in Jiangnan, can I do it?"

"This...this is naturally impossible." Boss Liao said helplessly. Their power has only reached some big cities in the north. After crossing the Yangtze River, there is no shop or relationship. Even in the north, there are only some key cities that have opened silver numbers, and the silver notes of other smaller cities still cannot be paid for half a tael of silver. This is the strength of the largest large silver numbers in Great Vietnam today.

Seeing that the merchants understood the truth, Li Ling smiled again: "But the money tickets of my Dayue are different. As long as it is in my Dayue, any state prefecture can be exchanged for sufficient amount of money at any time. All bosses have transactions all over the north and south. On weekdays, whether it is buying or selling goods, the coming and going of money is ultimately a difficult point. After all, money will always attract some covetous people.

"But now with me, the money ticket is completely different. We have prepared various denominations, so that you can pass the world by just bringing a money ticket with you. In this way, whether it is safe or convenient, it is far higher than before."

After this recommendation, everyone was really excited. Especially those who made the transactions to the south, or even some areas in the border areas, were particularly attractive to them. In order to transfer money, they spent a lot of effort, and even hired some escort teams to escort. The expenses alone were a considerable expense.

Now, once you use the money tickets from the government, things will become very simple. As long as you have one ticket in your hand, you can pass the world. That would be so convenient.

However, their concerns did not completely disappear because of this. After all, this thing is still too new to them and had never seen it before. Moreover, is the court really that credible? Not a trap conspiracy that the government came up with in order to seize the wealth of the people?

However, they dare not really say this. Fortunately, someone still thought of a question and asked: "Mr. Li, this money ticket is different from copper coins, gold and silver after all, it is just a piece of paper. What if it is imitated? We are just small-scale businesses. Once we really encounter such a situation, we are afraid..."

"You are a little worried. How could I not expect this?" Li Ling looked confident and smiled, "Actually, Boss Liao can deal with this question calmly. After all, silver notes will be counterfeited by Xiaoxiao. Right?"

Boss Liao, who was named by Li Ling again, could only smile and briefly explain: "The bank notes in our bank account are secretly corded, only my boss and the two big shopkeepers know the secret, so even if others want to imitate it, they can't hide it from us."

Li Ling nodded and expressed his approval: "Yes, this is also arranged on our money tickets. However, this is just an anti-counterfeiting method. You have seen the back of the money ticket. The pattern on the top and the words vaguely visible, which can be verified for the authenticity of the money ticket. The more important thing is that the paper and ink used for the money tickets are also developed by the Inner Treasury Bureau and our three yamen. Now it has not been circulated on the market, and its secret recipes will be hidden in the secret library dedicated to Your Majesty, and others cannot contact them at all.

"In fact, let alone other people, I just created money by myself

People who voted for money now cannot make a fake money ticket. The most important point is that while the money ticket was launched, the court will also make all the means to identify the authenticity of the money. In this way, everyone in the world knows how to distinguish the authenticity of the money. Can anyone else commit fraud at will and deceive the world?”

Now, those who were worried about encountering fake money tickets were completely speechless. Even those who suspected that the court had ulterior motives had been shaken. Seeing Li Ling's design like this, it was really to be able to quickly promote money tickets to the world.

"In fact, the court made this arrangement for the sake of the people of the world. After all, whether it is gold, silver or copper coins, it will always be damaged in the process of spending. There are always some people with bad luck and will receive some damaged copper coins. Perhaps this or two cents are really nothing to you, but ordinary people are different.

"But it's different after the general money ticket. Even if it is damaged during the expenditure process, the government will accept the original price after verification. In this way, the people will naturally not lose money. At most, the government will spend some materials and print a batch of them.

"It can be said that this money is a good thing that benefits the country and the people, and is beneficial to the entire Great Yue without any harm. Can you set an example for the court and the people of the world and help me this time?"

Li Ling put his attitude so low that it was difficult for all the merchants to refuse, otherwise he would be ungrateful and offended him instead.

Just as they were about to nod, Li Ling smiled again and said, "Don't worry, the court has made arrangements for this. In order to encourage shops to collect money tickets, they will set a 10% reduction in the commercial tax of such shops next year. Also, I, Zongheng Commercial Bank, will only charge money tickets starting next year, and as long as money tickets are spent, we will also give a 10% discount..."

After these words, the merchants were moved immediately, and even their hearts began to move.

The commercial tax of this dynasty was much higher than before Song. Big merchants like them paid hundreds of thousands of taels of taxes and silver every year, which occupied the forefront of all expenses. Now that the court can make a little concession in this regard, it is still quite attractive to them.

Zongheng Commercial Bank also has business dealings with 70% of the merchants here, otherwise it would not have been possible to invite them all to the banquet so easily. Although this fee is not as good as the commercial tax, it is still not small. In addition, the convenience of using money tickets, it is too fake to say that they are not tempted.

Finally, after a silence, Boss Jin took the lead in speaking: "Mr. Li, what are you saying is the truth?"

"Since I promised you on behalf of the court, there will naturally be no falsehood. To be honest, isn't the court doing all this for peace and prosperity in the world? How could it deceive you just to be greedy for that little money?" Li Ling said seriously.

Several people looked at each other again, and some people whispered a few words. Finally, some businessmen behind them spoke first: "Since that's the case, I'm willing to use money tickets in my shop!"

"Me too……"

“So I…”
