Chapter 490: The businessman is demon

Wu Changqing doesn't know what reaction will be caused after the monetary law is promoted, so it is difficult to predict.

However, no matter what the situation is, this is something that must be done.

With the promulgation of the currency law, the Royal Bank began to issue new currencies.

What Wu Changqing did not expect was that after the new currency was issued, it was robbed.

Because the new currency is so beautiful, it's almost like a work of art.

In the past, the silver was just a small pile. It was as ugly and ugly as the big official silver was more attractive, but it was only good-looking.

And now the new silver coin has a map of the Dahua Empire on one side and a dragon pattern on the other side.

In terms of appearance, shape, and sophistication, the new silver coin has completely exploded the previous silver.

Moreover, in terms of weight, it is completely sufficient.

The strength of the government will not show flaws when it is mixed with water.

At the same time, the new currency has been standardized, and it is more convenient to use, unlike the previous silver when it is used.

All aspects are better than the previous silver, and it is reasonable to be popular.

The common people and some small businessmen took the silver bullion in their hands to exchange for new silver coins. The one million taels of silver coins reserved by the Royal Bank were exchanged in three days.

In desperation, the Mint could only work overtime and continuously mint new money.

The irregular silver bullion from the private sector has flooded into the Royal Bank in large numbers.

The Royal Bank took advantage of this opportunity and naturally made blood.

Not only can you earn 10% when you mint coins, but you can also earn a ‘fire consuming silver’ fee when you exchange money.

After all, most of the folk silver bullion is not pure silver and contains impurities.

The official statement is that the purification of these miscellaneous silver requires a cost, so it is necessary to charge a fire.

Of course, the cost of this fire is very low, in order not to discourage the people's enthusiasm for exchange.

Although the cost is low, it cannot stand up to a large amount.

The number of exchanges is large, and the cost of this fire is enough to only support the operating costs of its Royal Bank.

And the income of minting becomes pure income.

The Royal Bank's routine is naturally not hidden from the big businessmen.

However, those big businessmen knew nothing about it.

Borrowing their courage, they dare not go to the streets to popularize science and expose the Royal Bank's routines.

After all, that is Wu Changqing's private bank.

Uncovering Wu Changqing's black material, I'm afraid I'm tired of living.

After all, Wu Changqing is not Chongzhen, if it is Chongzhen, it would be easier to buy a group of officials and scold the emperor every day in the court to fight for profit with the people.

With Chongzhen's face-saving personality, after a few more curses, he had to give up.

But Wu Changqing is different. If anyone dares to scold him, he will probably be sent to the vegetable market.

Throughout the ages, a powerful emperor has not necessarily been a wise and martial artist. But the emperor who can be called a wise and martial artist must be very powerful.

The emperor is not strong enough to do anything easy.

After all, no matter how good a policy is, it is always impossible to take care of all classes at the same time. Those classes that are not profitable generally make trouble.

In the Jinling Chamber of Commerce, many businessmen gathered again to discuss the impact of currency laws.

"The impact is naturally huge. If we exchange all our family's silver into new silver coins, our wealth will be reduced by nearly 10%. This is not a small amount.

Secondly, wealth cannot be concealed, and small amounts can be concealed, but if it is exchanged for millions of taels, will the court have no records? Although the wealth is known, the court will not steal it outright.

But our current master has many methods. If he knows who has millions of taels hidden in his house, it is hard to guarantee that he will not be tempted. "

Hong Tailin complained that Wu Changqing's move was too cruel.

"Boss Hong is right. If the people completely accept the new silver coins in the future, we can't spend the money in our hands. If we want to spend it, we must first exchange them for new coins.

After the court has completely mastered the world's silver coins, it is not up to them to decide how many impurities will be added to the silver coins in the future. When the time comes, let us not be lucky enough to make a profit for a year. The government minting will be mixed with 20% impurities, and I will lose money when I make money. "

Pang Yuanming echoed the road.

Although they do not understand the theory of inflation, they can think of such a method and know some of the primary effects of this inflation.

It can be said that the class that dislikes this monetary policy least is the big businessmen.

The 10% loss of profits is still a trivial matter. The most important thing is that the court controls the coinage rights, and they will be subject to the court everywhere in the future.

His true wealth has also become uncontrollable, depending on the face of the court.

"That's no way. Is it possible that you still want to acquire the technique of coining silver coins, and then cast your own silver into new coins privately? That's something to lose your head."

Cui Mingchong said helplessly, he didn't want to take that kind of risk.

"Naturally, we will not do the thing to beheaded, but we can't just sit back and wait. At least, we can't let the issuance of the new currency go too smoothly."

Hong Tailin said.

"Then what should I do?"

Cui Ming rushed to ask.

"It's not difficult to say. If you want to say that the people with the most money are not merchants like us. As long as we maintain a tacit understanding not to exchange it, how much can it be exchanged by ordinary people and small merchants?

One million yuan for three days, which sounds like a lot, but that's actually the case. As long as we collectively do not exchange it, that little new currency cannot completely replace the previous silver.

As long as the previous silver can continue to be circulated and used, and the new currency is not allowed to grow, it will have little impact on us. "

Hong Tailin suggested.

As long as they link up in this circle, it is indeed sufficient to hinder the issuance of new coins.

"This, if your Majesty finds out, I'm afraid he will be angry."

Cui Ming resented.

To engage in such things as cascading, to have an effect, the scope must be large.

And the larger the scope, the faster things will be exposed. After all, in a huge chamber of commerce, it is impossible for every businessman to have the same heart. There may be royalists and royalist parties in it.

"When you get angry, get angry. Is it possible that he can punish us all in one anger. As the saying goes, the law does not punish the public. If he dares to punish all of us, the foundation of Dahua will be turbulent."

Hong Tailin said with disdain.

"That being said, we businessmen alone can't fight against the government. I don't know how things are going to support the mouthpiece of North Korea?"

Han Sanli asked.

"Currently, several officials have been funded, but Dahua and Daming’s officialdom are quite different, and the right to speak of the officials is relatively low. As for the important court officials, the progress is not going very smoothly. It seems that those important officials are afraid of today. The Lord."

Hong Tailin said.

The more important the minister, the more contact with Wu Changqing, and the more they understand Wu Changqing, they are afraid of Wu Changqing's methods, so naturally they dare not make inconveniences.

In the past, the civil servants were not afraid of Chongzhen, because Chongzhen had to deal with it individually because he had no military power in his hand.

But now Wu Changqing, the military power is firmly in his hands.

If those civil servants dared to provoke Wu Changqing collectively, he could do it all in one go and then promote a group of officials.

Anyway, there is no shortage of people who want to be officials in this land of Dahua.

After some discussions, Hong Tailin and others decided to secretly connect in order to hinder the issuance and circulation of new coins.
