Gold and silver have been precious metals since ancient times.

"My lord, do you mean to use silver as coins?"

"Not bad!"

Yangzhou's craftsmanship is constantly improving, and now it's time to meet new challenges.

As long as the coins are made delicate enough to look valuable, and with the reputation of the government, it is not a problem to circulate them.

Moreover, Liu Ke will not make unlimited coins like Yizhou.

The existing coins are indeed not enough to support the huge market in Yangzhou.

Under this premise, Liu can benefit the government and raise the military posture for the next war. The success rate is still very high, at least [-]% or more.

The common people will not lose much, but the big merchants will suffer some losses.

But the merchants were supported by Liu Ke, such as the Mi family, Zhen family, and Qiao family, how could they be against Liu Ke.

"If the currency reform can be successful, the problem of military expenditure will be solved directly." Lu Su seemed very excited.

With Yangzhou's current finances, it is not a problem to support Liu Ke's army of millions to fight for a year.

However, the situation of the war is unpredictable, what if it is delayed until the second year?

I can only borrow money!

Don't the government care about face?Borrowing money over and over again...

"This coin reform directly determines three kinds of coins. One is copper coins, the other is silver coins, and the last is gold."

"Among them, one gold is equal to one hundred silver coins, and one silver is equal to one hundred copper coins."

"The specific rules and regulations, you continue to discuss and come up with a planning plan, and the officials are responsible for improving it."

"After it is perfected, throw it to the business school and the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce, let them find faults, and start implementing after confirming that there are no problems."

Liu Ke gave a general direction, and the rest still needs to be completed by his subordinates, otherwise why raise so many talents.

"My lord, since it is a new coin, it should have a new name, right?"

After thinking about it, Liu Ke settled on the words "Kaiyuan Tongbao".

The term "Kaiyuan" appeared at the latest in the early Eastern Han Dynasty.

Ban Gu, a famous scholar and historian in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, mentioned the word "Kaiyuan" many times in his articles.

When Lu Su heard "Kaiyuan Tongbao", he was shocked immediately.

why?

Because Ban Gu wrote in "Han Shu Li Xun Biography": "Han Xun has been in existence for two hundred years, and the calendar opened in the Yuan Dynasty. The emperor descended from the heavens to the right of non-talented people, and the Han State was again given the talisman of order."

Not only that, but Ban Gu also wrote in "Dongdu Fu": "The husband of the great man is also the Kaiyuan, and he wears clothes to ascend the throne."

Speaking of this, everyone must have understood that the word "Kaiyuan" both refers to the founding of a country, that is, the establishment of a new country.

what does this mean?

What kind of signal is this?

"My lord, why don't you change your name?" Lu Su suggested, adhering to the principle of keeping a low profile.

"What's wrong with Kaiyuan?" Liu Ke asked back, "In this way, the new currency can be circulated better."

Liu Ke's rule in Yangzhou has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.People often wonder why King Dongyang didn't ascend the throne directly.

Now, "Kaiyuan Tongbao" is an excellent signal, and the common people must love it.

Moreover, the imminent war in the Central Plains can also boost morale and inspire people's hearts.

Kaiyuan Tongbao is divided into three types: copper, silver and gold, which are convenient for all walks of life.

In just seven days, the samples made by Tie Niucheng appeared on Liu Ke's case.

Liu Ke always felt that something was wrong, and later found out that it was in the calligraphy of the four characters "Kaiyuan Tongbao".

For this reason, Liu Ke specially approached Cai Yong, and asked Cai Yong to create a unique font.

When the new sample was produced, all the officials applauded.

A coin is as exquisite as a work of art.

Three months later, Kaiyuan Tongbao officially began to circulate and became the main currency.

Since there are Yangzhou banks all over the country, it is easy to promote.

In the past, people only had five baht coins and gold as currency, but Liu Ke just added a silver coin between them, so it didn't cause much backlash.

The first thousand and 110 eight chapters the end of the truce

As the saying goes, it makes sense for people to compare themselves to others and make people angry.

Liu Bei made the Taiping Hundred Coins, and Sun Quan made the Daquan series, which turned into cancer-like existences, sucking the blood of the people.

During this period of time, there was an endless stream of rebels in Yizhou. Fortunately, Liu Bei's knife was sharper.

Yizhou's economy has gone backwards for thousands of years, and it has come to the era of barter.
