Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

After discussing with the ministers about the operation of the bank, Li Ke left a little angrily. He still had to prepare for the distribution of dividends to all shareholders.As for the operation mode of the bank, don't think about it, the early staff of the bank is naturally provided by Li Ke's Yuelai Trading Company, because Fang Xuanling and the others don't have enough staff even if they want to recruit.

So when he left the Liangyi Hall, Li Ke was a little upset, because he was tricked by Fang Xuanling!Damn, what does it mean that I am the secretary of a central bank, and I don't have to work, and let the people below do other things.

At the beginning, Li Ke didn't think it was a big problem, and the problem of the bank was indeed very important. Li Ke didn't react at that time, so he agreed.

When discussing the specific personnel composition later, Li Ke suddenly realized, what difference does it make if I should be the whole Shangshu or not?Because the people in the bank are fucking mine, am I not the one who works for this minister?

When my people arrange things in detail, don't I still have to direct them?He wants to stop working, but the problem is that if Li Ke doesn't work, no one can make a decision for him. After all, this is related to the foundation of a country, and it is the national currency. It is impossible for the people in the bank to make such a decision. of.

If it was Fang Xuanling, they would definitely be able to make a decision directly, or go to Li Shimin to make a decision. Anyway, it is not Li Ke's turn, but now that he is the minister, if his people submit the question to Fang Xuanling, do you believe it? If you don't believe it, Fang Xuanling handed it over to Li Shimin, and then Li Shimin threw it back.

At that time, Li Ke couldn't do without working. If he didn't become the minister, Li Shimin would definitely not throw it back.

It's sloppy!

They are all a bunch of fucking old foxes, they got themselves tricked in a few words, wait, I'm the trick, right?

Let me let you know what it means to be rotten!Forcing me to scale up my moves, I'll see how you guys deal with it then.

With a cold snort, Li Ke left the palace.

"Your Highness won't be angry, right?" Fang Xuanling couldn't help asking in a low voice when Li Ke left.

"Why do your words sound weird?" Wei Zheng glanced at him.

"Cough, how is it possible? But Your Majesty, the bank's opinion is very good, and this will undoubtedly promote the entire Tang Dynasty." Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin and said.

"A good thing is definitely a good thing. The salaries of the courtiers will be distributed according to this. From this year on, some benefits and other aspects of the ministers will be converted into currency by referring to the price of the goods on the market, and then go up by [-]%, except for some special ones. Except for spices and other items, let these ministers go to the market to purchase. All salaries will be distributed in banknotes." Li Shimin nodded.

"Yes!" Fang Xuanling also agreed.

"Okay, let's have a good discussion when you go back. The implementation of the money bank will gradually expand to the entire Tang Dynasty in the future." Li Shimin waved his hand. In fact, he and these ministers know that the promotion of banknotes in the early stage is not at all. question.

First of all, in the short term, banknotes are not aimed at the most ordinary people, but anyone who can use banknotes must have assets at home, and these people can hardly avoid Li Ke if they want to be active in Datang.

In other words, they can't get around the industries related to Li Ke. As long as Li Ke's own industry can use paper money in all places where paper money can be used, other people can only use this regardless of whether they accept it or not, unless you don't want to talk to His Highness King Qin. do business.

Or after you got the banknotes from His Highness King Qin in the early stage, you hurried to the bank to exchange them for silver or copper coins.

As long as you don't find it troublesome, you can change it casually. After changing it a few times, I believe that people who often do business or spend money will not bother to change it.

As for those who don't need money and want to save it, these are unavoidable.

Everyone knows that aristocratic families have the habit of hoarding cash. After the banknotes come out, most of them exchange their business money into banknotes. Their own money warehouses will definitely store some silver and copper coins.

But this doesn't matter, you can't influence your personal choice anyway, as long as they start to recognize and use it.

When the wealthy people throughout the Tang Dynasty are used to using these, it will be much easier for ordinary people to promote them in the future.

"Yes." Fang Xuanling and the others saluted and left directly. When they left the Liangyi Hall, Fang Xuanling thought for a while and said: "Your Highness is still far-sighted. Everyone, you have to be careful in the future. Especially your Ministry of Finance , the audit department."

"What did Liang Guogong say?" Huangfulin and the others asked with some doubts.

"Isn't this simple? The simplest thing is that although all the revenue of the national treasury will be stored in a warehouse in the future, almost all of it will be banknotes when used externally. This means that no matter whether your Ministry of Finance allocates funds to any other department, it must go through the bank. Go through a procedure."

"Do you think that the treasury corruption that His Highness found out before will happen in the future? Of course, it will happen. To be precise, do you think it will be so easy this time?" Fang Xuanling looked at they spoke.

Everyone froze for a moment, then took a deep breath, this... It really is such a thing.

In the future, the appropriations of the Ministry of Finance will definitely have to go through the accounts from the central bank, which means that the accounts will be recorded in the two departments, and it will be easier to check the accounts at that time.

"There is another simple question. In the past, for example, the Ministry of Civil Affairs allocated 10 copper coins to the military. In fact, among the 10 copper coins, if there are 5 copper coins, each coin has only 999 copper coins. This means that 50 copper coins have been embezzled. , and the general handover person, do you think they will count everything? And even if there are problems after counting...it is too difficult to investigate."

"But it's different if all the materials are deposited in the central bank in advance. The bank is for depositing money. They must have enough personnel to carry out the counting." Changsun Wuji also nodded.

"What Zhao Guogong said is very true. In the past, the loss of these money during the continuous transfer process was always inevitable. It is impossible for the people below to steal more than a dozen coins to be discovered. But now if the army uses banknotes, That would be great to be discovered." Wei Zheng also nodded.

Corruption, which has always been lack of money, has been too common in all dynasties, and it is difficult to eliminate it. All dynasties have thought of various methods, such as weighing methods. The problem is that the size and style of currency in each dynasty are different, and the weight There is not such a small standard weight, the most important error is a bit large, and there are errors in weighing and so on.

This is also the reason why the transportation and casting of these coins have fire consumption, and some dynasties have fire consumption as high as [-]%!

"Gentlemen, I think what you should worry about now is...how His Highness King Qin will counteract... I can't do it anymore." Dou Lukuan said with a wry smile.
