I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

On the day when the banknotes were printed, Luo Shixing had someone directly deliver the full-page banknotes to the study.

Originally, he wanted to take a look with Cheng Jingwei and tell Alezhen if there was no problem. Li Youdao and the others had their own things to do, and it was okay to watch it after they got off work at night.

In the end, I don't know where they got the news, maybe they saw craftsmen coming in and out of Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei's study.

Anyway, they came all at once, Luo Shixing couldn't laugh or cry, so he said to them: "Okay, since they're all here, let's take a look."

Everyone has seen the pattern printed on the banknotes before, as well as the paper, but no one has seen the finished product.

At this time, one version of one version of banknotes was placed on the desk. There were six versions in total, corresponding to six denominations of banknotes.

When they entered, Cheng Jingwei was cutting out one sheet of each type of banknote, and then put the six banknotes together to form an intact "Summer Time Scene".

At this time, the surface of the banknotes is bright, and the printed patterns and fonts are very clear.

Yes, there are also characters on the banknotes. From one yuan to one hundred yuan, they are marked with Chinese characters in the blank space next to the pattern, and the corresponding Arabic numerals are below the Chinese characters.

In addition, there are numbers on the top and bottom, the top strip is the number of Chinese characters, and the bottom is the number of Arabic numerals.

Ale really stretched out his hand to touch the banknotes, and found that the banknotes were really smooth, and even if they were rolled lightly, they could feel their flexibility, and they were naturally not easy to be damaged if they were properly preserved.

Most people treat money with care, and it is impossible to damage it easily.

The six edition banknotes are eye-opening both in terms of shape and delicacy, and more denominations can solve the problem of purchasing and carrying with a high probability.

Ale was really curious and asked, "How do you plan to implement it?"

Luo Shixing said: "That's simple. Next, the monthly money I send to them will really become money, which can be exchanged according to the equivalent value of the previous supplies. This money can also be used to buy things."

Ale asked curiously, "What if someone objects?"

Just as Luo Shixing was about to say something, Cheng Jingwei at the side said, "No one will object."

Luo Shixing turned his head to look at Cheng Jingwei, and was somewhat puzzled why Cheng Jingwei was so sure that no one objected.

Cheng Jingwei then said: "According to the proper procedures, these people should all be enslaved or lowly. Now that the little lynx is willing to send them money, it is already kind-hearted. What right do they have to object?"

Anyway, it has to be implemented, and there is no need for these people to understand, nor do they need to fully agree, as long as they do what I say.

The above is Cheng Jingwei's thoughts. Before these people created value, they were originally dependent on him and the little lynx. Although they did a lot of things, they are only now beginning to bear fruit.

Luo Shixing patted Cheng Jingwei on the shoulder: "Don't do this, we have to convince people with reason."

Well, the principles of physics are also principles.

Speaking of Lingnan, the fastest way to change his thinking is to understand, don't try to reason with illiterates, just beat him up when he is indecisive.

However, the others did not understand what he meant, and expressed their support for Cheng Jingwei's words.

A Le really couldn't put it down as he rubbed the banknotes. Luo Shixing saw him like this and said, "Okay, this set is for you. The first edition number is the out-of-print number. It can be regarded as a commemorative coin. One set per person."

Out of print!

The appeal of the word to people is the same no matter what time of day it is.

As long as it is an orphan or out-of-print, anyone with some value will be sought after.

Alzhen laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, carefully put away his set of banknotes and asked, "What's the serial number?"

"The serial number is to see how many sets of coins have been issued. It has a certain concept of overall wealth. When encountering various crises, you can use this to increase or decrease the printing of banknotes as appropriate."

This is also the easiest way to control the economy.

Li Youdao and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. When the Tang Dynasty minted coins, there were no serial numbers. Of course, there were records of minting coins, but this record may not be true. For example, there were many coins minted, but few records were recorded.

This kind of thing is not impossible.

Numbering is indeed a good solution.

Alejan asked, "What if someone made a fake copy of the number?"

Luo Shixing glanced at him: "Whoever makes a fake is a fool. We will find out within two days inside the manor, but outside the manor... what's the use of making a fake, and it can't be used."

In fact, the printing of the number is also different, with a pattern on the whole, but it is not clear at all because the characters are small.

At that time, even Cheng Jingwei seldom complained that Luo Shixing increased his workload. Ordinary people who don't have this ability should be more careful.

But he didn't tell Alezhen all the anti-counterfeiting methods, after all Alezhen really has the ability to forge.

Al really took his set of coins and left. Before leaving, all he wanted was to see if the little lynx could promote coins here.

Because he had tried it before, worked hard for a long time but ended in failure, his confidence had been blown, and even if he believed in Luo Shixing, he still found it difficult.

After he left, the manor management began to discuss how to promote this thing.

Luo Shixing said: "First control the public opinion, let people let the wind out, and then control the materials. Some materials must be purchased with money, such as houses."

Now the people in the manor basically have a residence, some people live in a dormitory, but Li Youdao and the others have already moved to a small courtyard specially built for them.

It has to be said that this small courtyard is actually not as convenient as the villa, because the tap water system run by Luo Shixing relies heavily on water wheels, and in the final analysis is a tap water system that relies on the gravity brought by the height difference.

Although there are some creeks beside other places, there are no such conditions as canals, and waterwheels cannot be placed.

Moreover, it is impossible for every house to be equipped with waterwheels, so it is indeed good for Li Youdao and the others to have their own house, but the living standard has dropped. In desperation, each of them recruited a few servants .

In addition to Li Youdao and the others, there was also a house prepared for Wei Ziyao and Xiao Shanshi. They were neighbors to Li Youdao. Wei Ziyao and Xiao Shanshi consciously took their younger siblings and lived directly in the house prepared for them.

So now the whole villa has really become the world of Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei, not to mention, the two of them are still not used to it.

As for the rest of the houses, they were built for sale. Most of these houses are small two-storey buildings built in the form of townhouses. You can buy one floor alone or directly buy two floors.

The house is not a necessity, because Luo Shihang provided them with accommodation. Although the environment is average, if they want to buy it, they don't need to worry about retaliation if they are forced to buy it with money.

Of course, according to the current pricing, not many people can afford a house.

In fact, Luo Shixing didn't want to set the price of the house too expensive, but the problem was that their land wasn't big enough. Even if they developed all the places that the previous bigwigs took out from Alezhen, they couldn't accommodate everyone.

Building two floors this year is really the limit, and it is not impossible to build more, but the structure is not so stable, and the foundation needs to be laid a little deeper.

The most important thing is that everyone instinctively rejects and distrusts high-rise buildings. Even if it is built, no one may buy it.

Under such circumstances, there must be a small number of people who can own their own houses.

Anyway, to implement the New Deal, as long as the basic things of people's livelihood, such as food and salt, are not moved, then basically there will be no problem.

On the other hand, herbs can also be purchased by force, and a medicine garden is also being established. The herbs collected by everyone are also exchanged for other things online. As for private transactions, there are not many, but there are not many.

The bottom line is that it is necessary to build everyone's confidence in banknotes, and not make them suspect that taking a piece of paper is nothing.

This takes a little bit.

Luo Shixing was not in a hurry, but said, "It will take some time to print paper money. Next, I want to teach everyone how to read."

Upon hearing this Li Youdao and others immediately rang the alarm bell, Pei Xingben asked cautiously: "Teach everyone to read? Why do you want to teach?"

Luo Shixing looked puzzled: "Because there are numbers on the money, you must let everyone know how much these are, right? If they can't remember the face value, they will still resist."

Li Youdao asked slowly: "This matter is not easy, there are so many people in the manor, and it is a busy period recently, and they are stupid, I am afraid it is difficult to teach."

Although Luo Shixing only said that he would teach the characters at face value, as long as he learned the characters, he might continue to learn them, which was too dangerous for them.

Cheng Jing smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, there are more literate people than illiterate people in our manor."

Li Youdao and the others were slightly taken aback, and then they remembered that many people were exiled prisoners, and some were exiled themselves, no matter how illiterate they were, they were more or less literate.

And the rest of the illiterate people were those from the Ouluo tribe. Judging from Luo Shixing's attitude towards the Ouluo tribe, he knew that it was impossible for him to reuse them.

Not to mention that some of them are still slaves, so it seems that it really doesn't affect anything.

Li Youdao had a good idea of ​​the population situation in the manor. Based on this calculation, the proportion of scholars here is actually the highest in the whole country, which is outrageous!

Luo Shixing dared to ask people to be literate because of this ratio problem. When most people are literate and a small number of people are illiterate and still at the bottom, their learning Chinese characters will not cause a strong reaction from everyone.

From the numbers on the coins to his own name, he went step by step, and Luo Shixing was not afraid of opposition from these big bosses.

When the coins are promoted, it's okay for these bigwigs to go on strike to protest.

Anyway, the manor itself is not big, and it's not like Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei can't manage it.

And how many people below are eager to be promoted. Everyone is a scholar and an official, and many of them are county magistrates who have done a good job before.

Managing a manor is no more difficult than a county magistrate managing a county, and many people even think that the prime minister may not have his own ability.

At that time, if Li Youdao and the others object, Luo Shixing can definitely promote other people to come up.

Although these people belong to aristocratic families, the roots of the aristocratic families are not here.

The foundation of the aristocratic family lies in Ye Da's deep roots, with a large number of people, and now they have nothing in their hands, how can they fight against Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei who have mastered the economy and military?

Unless they go all out and call their family members over, the problem is that even if they are willing to call, they may not be willing to come.

At this time, Wang Antong sent a messenger to tell Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei that they would arrive in Beidai County in three days.

By the way, I also brought the list of goods this time.

Cheng Jingwei didn't look at the list in a hurry, and said with a slight smile: "They came back just in time, and the division of power in the manor needs to be balanced."
