Chapter 135: Silver is equal to Dachengbao Notes? It's compiled!

Chapter 135: Silver is equal to Dachengbao Notes? It's compiled! (6K)

Silver is not food.

Silver is not clothing.

It is indeed indispensable.

"but."

“A lot of money coming in.”

“It doesn’t seem to mean much, does it?”

This thought suddenly popped up in Wang Qianhe's mind.

Even he himself felt it was a little strange. It was obvious that the income from silver was beneficial to the country, but he always felt that Yu Country... did not seem to need so much silver!
"Or."

“Even if it’s a reserve.”

“It’s just the icing on the cake.”

"Chen Huaixin shouldn't be that excited."

Wang Qianhe looked at the Mirror of Heaven.

Even he could sense something strange, even he could detect things that didn't make much sense, there was no reason why Chen Huaixin wouldn't notice this!
But Chen Huaixin still ordered the navy to go to the Japanese island at the first opportunity and maintain that route!
"What on earth does he want to do with this silver?!"

……

【After the excitement. 】

[The Minister of Revenue also realized one thing.]

【Silver veins on the Japanese island. 】

【It is indeed beneficial to Yuguo. 】

【"but."】

[“A huge amount of silver is pouring in.”]

[“Will it have any impact on my Dayu?”]

[The Minister of Revenue frowned.]

[He is in charge of money and grain, so his knowledge of it is naturally much better than others.]

[It was just that at the beginning, because of the shock of the news of the large amount of silver, he did not pay attention to the hidden dangers behind it.]

[Now that he has calmed down, he finds that the income from the silver in Japan may not necessarily be a good thing! ]

“It’s like a wool sweater.”

[“When the quantity is small at the beginning, the selling price will be relatively high.”]

[“Once the quantity increases, the price that can be sold will naturally be much cheaper.”]

[“Silver is money, but if there is a large influx of it, will it become… worthless?!”]

[Silver is worthless! ]

[This thought came to the mind of the Minister of Revenue.]

[Even he was shocked by this absurd idea! ]

【after all.】

【Throughout the ages.】

[There has never been such a saying that silver is worthless! ]

[Even a child wouldn't say such outrageous words! ]

【but. 】

【After he reported this concern. 】

[He discovered that the look in His Majesty's eyes when he looked at him was not one of doubt or surprise, but rather one of... approval?! ]

[“Your Majesty agrees with my statement?!”]

[The Minister of Revenue felt a little confused. ]

[The Prime Minister next to him said: "The Minister of Revenue is worrying too much. Although the treasury of our Yu Kingdom is full, there is still a big gap in money."]

[“Let alone this little bit of silver income, even if we get another hundred or two hundred ships, it may not be able to fully meet the needs of our Yu Kingdom!”]

【Regarding the words of the Prime Minister. 】

[The generals beside him all nodded. ]

[After all, they now hope that the national treasury reserves as much silver as possible, so that they can ask the Ministry of Revenue to allocate more money and food to them so that their army can be better equipped.]

【But the Minister of Revenue saw that His Majesty approved of his statement. 】

[He did not hesitate at all and said, "In the short term, there is really no need to worry about this, but if all the silver on the Japanese islands is transported to our country, perhaps the reserves of silver will be higher than copper coins!"]

[“In that case, do you think silver is more valuable or copper coins are more valuable?!”]

【The voice falls.】

【The ministers are silent.】

[There are still some officials who want to say, how could such a thing happen, how could the amount of silver be more than the copper coins. ]

[But more people have already understood the meaning of his exaggerated statement! ]

【“If that time comes.”】

[“Even if silver is not cheaper than copper coins.”]

[“But it will definitely be much cheaper than it is now.”]

[“There will be very little that can be purchased!”]

[The Prime Minister's mind works very quickly.]

[Although he doesn't have his own views on money and grain like the Minister of Revenue, he also knows the impact of having more or less things! ]

[Although the claim that silver is cheaper than copper coins is just an exaggeration by the Minister of Revenue, it is possible that silver is worthless... right? ]

[The Prime Minister did not dare to make this conclusion.]

【His eyes turned to His Majesty.】

[“What the Minister of Revenue is worried about has actually already happened.”]

[Chen Huaixin's words stunned the ministers.]

[“Is it true that silver is worthless?”]

[“Impossible?”]

[“I have read many history books, but I have never seen any that record such an outrageous thing!”]

[“Could it be that other small countries around here have experienced such amazing things before?”]

[“But if the surrounding small countries had a large amount of silver, it would definitely be known to the Central Plains dynasty at that time. How could they possibly protect it?”]

【“…”】

[The ministers discussed the matter.]

[Even the Minister of Finance looked at his Majesty in confusion.]

[How come he, the Minister of Revenue, has never heard of this matter involving silver? ]

[“You’ve all heard about this.”]

【“But, at that time.”】

[“This thing is not called silver.”]

[“It has another name.”]

【“Da Cheng Bao Chao!!!”】

……

In the Golden Palace.

Look at the deduced future.

Wang Qianhe suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He didn't expect that.

The Minister of Finance of Yu State actually had the same opinion as him!

However, the other ministers around him were all sarcastic.

After all, the fact that silver is worthless sounds like a ridiculous joke!
until.

Chen Huaixin's words.

Let everyone fall silent.

"Silver has become worthless."

"But it was called Dacheng Baochao at that time?"

"this matter……"

"How does it have anything to do with us?!"

Many ministers showed confused looks on their faces.

Even Wang Qianhe couldn't figure out what the relationship was between the two!
Ji Qingluo, who was sitting above, frowned even more.

"Dachengbao notes are equivalent to silver?"

"What kind of shocking statement is this?!"

She originally wanted to say something like "absurd" or "outrageous", but when the words came to her lips, they were replaced by shocking.

The second princess Ji Changling looked at the fourth princess Ji Changxi and asked, "Fourth princess, with your brain circuit, can you understand what Chen Huaixin means?"

"know."

Ji Changxi said this.

Suddenly.

Everyone's eyes turned to her.

Ji Changxi was too lazy to keep the secret.

"Again."

“It’s simple math!”

"What's involved... is quantity!"

……

【“Dachengbaochao?!”】

【After hearing what Chen Huaixin said. 】

[Many officials still looked confused.]

[But the Minister of Revenue showed a look of surprise on his face.]

【“Yes.”】

[“Just like the Dachengbao Notes!”]

[“Because the imperial court previously produced and released a large amount of treasure notes, they are no longer valuable!”]

[“And if our country also has a large amount of silver and continues to invest it in the people, it will also be worthless!”]

[The Minister of Revenue immediately understood that silver was equivalent to Dachengbao notes.]

[It was only after his explanation that the other officials realized what was going on.]

【only.】

【Take these two as equivalent. 】

[It is still a little hard for them to accept. ]

【"after all."】

【“Money is naturally gold and silver.”】

[“Equating precious metals with a piece of paper.”]

[“It’s really not something that’s easy to accept.”]

【Chen Huaixin thought in his heart.】

[But he did not continue to explain, because the example he cited was enough to let the ministers understand what consequences would be caused by the influx of a large amount of silver into the market! ]

[The Prime Minister frowned and said, "If this is true, then the silver obtained from the Japanese island is actually a hidden danger for us?!"]

[“But the route has been opened, we can’t just give up like this, right?” The admiral said hurriedly. This was his future achievement, and he didn’t want to just give up like this.]

[“There is another way, which is to limit the amount of silver. Anyway, the Japanese island is in our hands. We decide whether to mine or stop!” The Minister of Revenue also said at this time. ]

[The influx of a large amount of silver will indeed make silver worthless. ]

[But a small amount of silver can bring huge profits to Yu Country! ]

【“Just as the Prime Minister said.”】

[“Even if we add one or two hundred ships of silver, it may not be able to meet the needs of our country.”]

[“We only need to control a certain range, and then this silver won’t be a problem!”]

[The Minister of Revenue expressed his thoughts.]

[He couldn't possibly give up the silver from the Japanese islands just because he was afraid of choking.]

[But the ministers still felt somewhat helpless - there was clearly a large amount of silver on the Japanese island, but due to various reasons, it could not be fully mined.]

[Anyone would feel aggrieved! ]

【“In that case.”】

[“We need the Ministry of Revenue to make accurate calculations.”]

[“To ensure that the amount of silver is not excessive.”]

[The Prime Minister sighed.]

[This is the only solution. ]

[After all, they are the most familiar with the consequences caused by the Dachengbao Notes. How could they make the same mistakes as the previous dynasty again? ]

【However.】

【At this moment.】

【Chen Huaixin shook his head and said: "There is no need to worry about anything. Just dig if you need to. It doesn't matter even if you move all the silver from Japan to Yu Country."】

【"ah?!"】

[The ministers were stunned.]

[Even the Minister of Revenue was a little confused.]

[They looked at Chen Huaixin, and some even wondered why His Majesty was plotting a rebellion! ]

[“The influx of a large amount of silver is equivalent to Dacheng Baochao!”] [“The disaster of the previous dynasty is still vivid in our minds!”]

【"His Majesty……"】

[“Do you think Yu Country is too stable?!”]

……

"So this is what the fourth sister meant by the math problem."

"If silver is as abundant as Dachengbao notes."

“That would indeed become very worthless.”

"It's just... it's still a little hard to accept!"

Ji Changling looked at the deduced scene and couldn't help but sigh.

Although I understand what it means, I still feel a little awkward to accept it.

And Wang Qianhe finally understood why he felt that Yu Country did not need so much silver!

"Because I know the tragedy caused by the Dacheng Baochao, I subconsciously feel a little uneasy about the massive influx of silver!"

"However, I was not able to connect the two so quickly like Chen Huaixin did. It was not until I was reminded that I suddenly realized it."

"Chen Huaixin's ability...is truly beyond my reach."

Wang Qianhe breathed a sigh of relief.

But he didn't feel helpless or anything.

After all, I've been hit enough.

Now he's used to it!
"but."

"Yuguo needs to limit the amount of silver."

"I, Chengguo, don't have to worry about this for now."

"Because the Dachengbao notes from the people still require a large amount of silver to be exchanged for an equivalent value."

"This will allow our country to take a breather and continue to prosper."

Wang Qianhe thought so in his heart.

He also felt a little regretful that although Yuguo had discovered the silver veins, they were unable to mine all of them.

but.

soon.

He was suddenly stunned again.

"Since Chen Huaixin knew that the influx of a large amount of silver would pose such a hidden danger, why did he not hesitate to send the navy to capture the Japanese island and spend a lot of effort to maintain the route?!"

This thought just came to Wang Qianhe’s mind.

The words of Chen Huaixin in the Jiantian Mirror asking him to continue digging made him completely confused.

"Isn't he afraid that the disaster of Dacheng Baochao will break out in the territory of Yu Country?"

"Or."

"He wants to...change the dynasty again?!"

……

【"His Majesty."】

【“You didn’t say.”】

[“A large amount of silver is equivalent to Dachengbao notes?”]

[“If the amount of silver is not limited.”]

[“But it will make the people’s lives miserable!”]

[The Prime Minister was the first to speak up.]

[He had already accepted the reason why the two were equivalent, but now his Majesty changed the subject and said it was okay, and that mining could continue, and there was no need to worry about anything else. How could he possibly understand this!]

[Even the Minister of Finance frowned at this moment, totally unable to understand why they ignored the hidden dangers when they knew about it?! ]

【"because."】

[“A large amount of silver would be equivalent to Dachengbao notes.”]

[“But this does not mean that the disaster caused by this treasure note will break out within the territory of my country.”]

【"and."】

【“At some point.”】

[“Money is a very powerful weapon!”]

【Chen Huaixin's expression remains calm.】

[When sending the navy to Japan to collect the silver mines on the island. ]

[He has already begun planning to change the current financial system in Yu Country, which is mainly based on copper coins and supplemented by gold and silver! ]

[“Although.”]

[“This financial system is not bad.”]

[“After all, it has lasted for thousands of years.”]

[“But for the booming business and the future of Yuguo.”]

[“Sooner or later it will become a restriction and even stagnate economic development!”]

【Chen Huaixin thought in his heart.】

[If you want to change this situation, you must have a large amount of gold or silver! ]

[Then we will use it as a physical anchor to change the currency of Yu Country little by little! ]

【"now."】

[“I want to mine enough gold.”]

[“It’s still a little difficult.”]

[“But silver is easy to get!”]

[“And with such a huge number, they can be used as weapons to plunder surrounding countries!”]

【Chen Huaixin already has a lot of ideas.】

【only.】

[Even if he is the Minister of Revenue. ]

[They don't really know what their Majesty means. ]

【"after all."】

“Currency war.”

[“Such knowledge is still too profound.”]

【Chen Huaixin rubbed his head.】

[He did not explain in detail what the Bretton Woods system based on silver reserves was, nor did he explain in detail how easy it would be for Yuguo to plunder other countries under this system.]

[Even other countries didn't know that their national power would be quietly occupied by Yu Country! ]

[He only gave an example that even a fool could understand: "For us, the more silver from the Japanese islands, the less valuable it is. But we can use this worthless silver to go to other countries and buy up all the valuable things!"]

[Although Yuguo is now a threat to all sides, it cannot completely use military force to force trade. ]

[Military force can serve as a back-up, allowing Yuguo merchants to purchase at lower prices when trading, or even if they cannot lower prices, they don’t have to worry about anyone daring to cheat them! ]

[But no matter what, the trade process still requires money! ]

[“No matter if it’s a small country in the Western Regions.”]

【“It’s still an overseas country.”】

[“The money spent in the trade was basically silver, and what was recognized was also silver.”]

[“Copper coins are not accepted in many places, and are difficult to carry due to corrosion, and are not convenient for transactions.”]

【Chen Huaixin just said this.】

【The ministers' eyes immediately lit up.】

【Especially the Minister of Revenue.】

【What he had previously focused on were all within the territory of Yu Country.】

[Now he expanded his vision to the surrounding small countries and paid attention to other countries. He suddenly discovered a new world! ]

[“If it is limited to the territory of our country, then we must naturally limit the influx of silver.”]

[“But if we include the surrounding countries, we can mine without any worries!”]

[“It doesn’t matter even if it exceeds the limit. Someone will bear the burden of the disaster caused by the large amount of silver for us!”]

[The Minister of Revenue said with a smile.]

[But there was still a trace of worry on the Prime Minister's face. ]

[“What if those small countries want to use the silver they spent to buy things from our Yu Country?”]

[“This is related to my country’s new financial system. With the support of military force, they must accept my country’s system. How to purchase it afterwards, whether to use silver or silver-exchanged treasure notes, whether the silver can flow back to the country or be stored in some offshore pool, all of these are decided by us!”]

【Chen Huaixin didn't say anything more.】

【but. 】

【He still plans. 】

[From that research and technical school, we found some students who were good at mathematics, taught them some knowledge, and then had them work with the Ministry of Revenue to reform the financial system.]

【"only."】

【"have no idea."】

[“Does Ji Changxi have any talent in this area?”]

[“Otherwise, we can let her take charge.”]

……

In the Golden Palace.

Look at the deduced future.

Many ministers had confused looks on their faces.

They were able to know the meaning of every word Chen Huaixin said.

"But."

“When these words are put together.”

"Why does it feel so strange?!"

The ministers looked at the Minister of Revenue, Mu Xiuqi, in confusion.

Since the death of Minister of Revenue Wei Taihe.

He just stayed very quiet, not daring to make any movement or even say a word.

Now that he was being stared at by so many colleagues, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly said, "Don't look at me! I really don't know what Chen Huaixin meant! How could I know something that even the Minister of Finance of Yu Kingdom didn't know!"

He no longer had the arrogance he had at the beginning and simply chose to bow his head and submit.

At this time, Wang Qianhe also felt a slight headache.

He could guess that the changing financial system was the reason why Chen Huaixin needed a large amount of silver!

"but."

"Using silver as a means of warfare?"

"What kind of system do you still rely on to plunder other countries?"

"How on earth does this work?!"

Wang Qianhe couldn't understand it at all.

This was somewhat beyond his understanding.

but.

Regarding the example given by Chen Huaixin.

He understood it immediately.

"They use worthless silver to buy valuable things. Even the small countries have to thank them - they are the empire, but they are willing to spend money to trade honestly!"

Wang Qianhe was filled with envy.

This simplest and most direct way of plundering can be said to be a huge profit with no cost!
Moreover, even if too much silver is mined, the resulting disaster can be transferred to other countries!
"It means that Yu Country has enjoyed the benefits brought by the large amount of silver without any risk, while the small countries around it will all have to pay for its actions!"

Wang Qianhe sighed.

this method.

Only Chen Huaixin could think of this.

Only Yuguo can do it!

"because."

“It needs to be backed by a strong military.”

"Even if some countries notice this, they will still be forced to accept it!"

……

[Jingping 11th year, January.]

【It’s New Year again. 】

【Compared to last year's snowstorm. 】

[Although the weather is cold this year, at least it is peaceful everywhere. ]
