The great emperor of crossing

Chapter 362 Currency Reform

Everyone finally hit it off and started doing their own things.

It was still the royal garden, and the laws that Wei Yang had drawn up by himself appeared.

"Your Majesty, please take a look. This is the "Currency Law" I just revised. I hope you can give me some pointers."

Zhao Lie was very surprised when he saw the new law in front of him. He didn't expect that these old and new ministers could unite at this moment to find a solution.

"You are planning to change the currency from the current silver to paper money through administrative means, are you?"

"Now there is only this way. In fact, silver as a metal should have its own way, so it should not be used for daily currency circulation. I don't know if His Majesty is very interested in my method."

Zhao Lie nodded after seeing such a law.

"Are you asking me to sign?"

"Yes!"

"Okay! If that's the case, I'll sign it, sure!"

In order to show the rigor of this law, Zhao Lie also stamped his jade seal on it.

At this time, all the banks received a major order, and the country began to directly collect all the silver, and at the same time, all the money was exchanged.

"Why do something like this directly? Isn't it great that we have a currency like this now?"

At this moment, the bosses of many banks finally began to have their own ideas, but no one thought that the banks would slowly die in this empire.

"Now announce a decree that all the owners of money houses will be registered with the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, and all will be completed within one month. Banks that have not been completed will be deemed illegal."

The bosses of these banks were very shocked, and did not expect that their life was really difficult.

At this moment, a very strange scene also appeared in Chang'an City. A very huge hall has appeared, and everyone is hurrying to exchange currency in front of the counter. The scene looks extremely hot.

Of course, other cities and vast villages in the empire have also begun to popularize accordingly. Such a thunderous approach has allowed the entire empire to slowly carry out corresponding reforms from the previous dead silence. A currency reform storm has started from this moment The curtain has officially opened.

"What are we supposed to do now?"

Many bank bosses finally couldn't bear it anymore. If this continues, their future banks may go bankrupt.

At such a moment, Liang Qichao appeared in front of everyone. The governor of the central bank who was about to take office decided to use various methods to slowly transform these banks into banks.

"Are you worried about any future losses in your currency?"

At a symposium, all registered bank owners were present.

"Of course I'm worried. We've been running the bank here since the reform, and silver has been the currency we've always used. Now, if the reform is carried out, will it cause shocks in the country?"

"The bank you are using now is outdated. Have you ever thought about upgrading the bank and turning it into a bank? I have seen your current situation. Except for a few relatively large banks in Chang'an City, all others are bankrupt. They are some very small banks. If you don’t have a stable source of funds, they will go bankrupt in an instant, and our empire plans to establish a central bank, which means that we will be responsible for managing you in the future, so I hope you will cooperate with me in the future. Your bank will be transformed directly from the bank, and the country will use the funds from the treasury to help you recover as soon as possible."

Such an idea of ​​Liang Qichao shocked everyone. Everyone still doesn't understand the concept of a bank very well.

"Do you all find it strange now that everyone has money in their own hands now, so it is more troublesome if you want to make money. If you become a bank in the future, you can borrow money, which means that the empire is ready To build a real financial network, you can use various methods to collect money in the entire market, provided that you are within the legal scope."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the word misappropriating money. It seems that the current situation is very simple.

"You mean you will be in charge of us in the future?"

"Yes, your bank now has a lot of funds, so you can completely set up the first bank of the empire. If you do, the country will choose to directly control it, and you will be the first bank to open to the outside world. Long, citizens can directly deposit their own money into your bank, and you can give them some interest every month or every year. Of course, you can lend these funds to some other institutions, and you can also collect money in this way Some interest, but absolutely no usury."

The owner of the bank was shocked when he heard this statement. He never thought that Liang Qichao knew his bank so well.

"Did you investigate me in private?"

"Your bank is already very famous in Chang'an City, do you still need me to investigate you?"

"Then why should I believe you? Do the institutions you mentioned exist now? And I heard that the current empire is still emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce. Are we going to give the money to some small merchants to do business? If it arrives When we lose everything, do you care?"

"Of course we will take care of it. What you are talking about is macro-control. As long as you do well, you will definitely make a profit. But if you want to take advantage of opportunism, the country will know about it, and we will help you when we establish a central bank. Set up a bank association where you can communicate with each other."

Such a statement made the currency reform much easier, and the bosses of the bank would no longer completely resist it as before.

In fact, it is the people who benefit the most, because everyone has finally exchanged their silver for many currencies that they can use, and suddenly they feel that their lives are not as hard as before.

Within a month, the reform of the currency system was finally completed, and paper money finally became the currency that was fully used in the entire empire, which brought relatively simple conditions for your subsequent reform.

"Liang Qichao, the reform of the currency system has been completed, and the central bank should also start doing things, right?"

This is what Zhang Yi is most worried about now.

"Don't worry, the central bank will be established soon. The executive vice president in the future will be Tan Sitong. I will find a way to help him do everything well. When the central bank is established, I hope that all ministers will come Appreciation!"

Liang Qichao is very proud. In fact, he feels that he is leading an era.
