History of Cannon Fodder Struggle [Qing]

After half a month, Yue Zhongqi quickly selected personnel from the Firearms Battalion and the Eight Banners Soldiers, and the first thing to ensure was that they would be physically strong.

After just half a month of running-in time, I went to Tibet.

Only a few people in the capital heard the news that new firearms would be used this time, and the rest were buried in the dark. Especially when they saw that the emperor only allowed Yue Zhongqi to bring 1 people, they all murmured in their hearts. Could it be that the emperor is tabooing Han people? ?

As Yue Zhongqi led the troops to quell the rebellion, the news of the war suddenly left the capital, and the capital, which had been boiling, calmed down again.

The next time I hear the news, it should be when the counter-insurgency results.

In addition to paying attention to the war in Tibet, the DPRK and China focused most of their attention on the accounting issues of the eighteen provinces.

There are too many ways to find out this time. Many accounts are all left over by the predecessor, and then the deficit of the predecessor is getting bigger and bigger, so it is difficult to track down.

But the fourth master became cruel, and wanted to pursue the matter to the end, even if he was transferred to death, it would be useless, the greedy one would make up for it himself, and the dead family would make up for it.

For a while, people were panicked, and many people dismissed their posts and fled.

This has left some places empty of staff, and the entire county government has been paralyzed.

Minning had already made preparations. In recent years, she had attracted many young officials, some of whom were even sponsored by her. When the fourth master was in a state of desperation, some young people who were waiting to be replaced took the initiative to stand up and ask to be dispatched to other places.

This time, the vacancy was quickly filled, and Minning's tentacles followed these people and penetrated into the provincial and county government offices.

In June, the Supreme Emperor sent a letter.

Fourth Master held the letter and his head ached.

It turns out that the Supreme Emperor allowed the local government that owns volcanic ash to set up a cement factory. The role of cement has been shown in the past two years, and it has become a scarce product in all parts of the country.

It can be said that any government that has opened a cement factory has made a lot of money, which has aroused the dissatisfaction of other local officials. Why are they also poor and remote, but other counties have made a lot of money by setting up cement factories by virtue of their geographical advantages?

There were more and more dissatisfied people, and the big guys took a look, and they wrote a book together to give to the Supreme Emperor.

Who told some local governments to set up cement factories in the first place?

Fourth master had a headache holding the letter, and the Supreme Emperor actually kicked the ball to him.

"Tell me, where can I find a way to make money for them?" Before, everyone disliked the court's request for too high a share and were unwilling to take this job.

This time I saw other people making money, and I couldn't sit still.

Minning stretched out his hand and touched the long armor on his hand, "They don't want you to give them advice, but they want you to allow them to set up companies and factories."

How could fourth master not know that instead of saying that these people will take the bad Taishanghuang to his place, it would be better to say that they only use the Taishanghuang to put pressure on him.

Who doesn't know that the Supreme Emperor is no longer in charge?These people deliberately sent the papers to the Supreme Emperor to complain, clearly knowing that the Supreme Emperor would throw this matter on the emperor's head again.

If it is presented to the emperor, the emperor may press the fold down without even asking.But presenting it to the Supreme Emperor is different.

"Tell me your opinion?" Fourth Master asked Xiang Minning.

Minning stretched out his fingers to look at the armor, blew on it, and then said: "If you want to open it, you can open it. We agree that the governments of various places can open companies or factories to subsidize the expenses of the local governments and counties. But there is one thing. It must be made clear that these companies and factories have to compete fairly with private factories, and they cannot be used to overwhelm others and set people up for crimes. Also, the money earned by companies opened in the name of the government can only be used for public use, not for public use. It must be stuffed into private pockets. All accounts must go to the bank, which also lays the foundation for the promotion of banknotes. Ugly words must be mentioned first, and it is still impossible to find out, but one day they will be found out, which will bring interest to the capital. Spit it out." This kills two birds with one stone.

Anyway, looking back, when these people found out that they were greedy and had to be paid back by future generations, some people didn't dare to move so much even if they did it.

After thinking about it, Minning made another suggestion, "I think it's better for every official to hand over any accounting issues to his successor before he is transferred. If there is a mistake within a year, the predecessor can be held accountable."

In fact, if a person wants to be greedy, there are thousands of ways to avoid it.Minning's mention of these can only be said to temporarily quench his thirst. Even the strict accounting of modern times can find a way to avoid it, let alone this era.

"All future accounts will be made in triplicate, so as to avoid any accidents, such as being burned, I have to copy the originals back."

Fourth Master nodded, instead of entangled with the account, he asked her, "If the government starts a company, what categories do you think can be operated?"

Only then did Minning look at him, "It depends on which ones you can drive. Daqing is so big, can you help them figure it out one by one? At least how much money you have to do a big job, and it has nothing to do with cement. Just like a factory, people with official positions are absolutely not allowed to participate in management issues, and they are only allowed to send people to investigate at the end of the year."

Fourth master made up his mind, "Just follow what you said."

Minning smiled and continued, "There are still some, if you really don't want to bother with this matter, you can also attract business and capital, and then you can collect taxes when your business is prosperous. This business tax, it's best to draw it clearly and announce it. , to unify the whole country, so as to prevent random collections from all over the country. There is also investment promotion, which can allow the local area to be exempted from taxes for more than one year and less than five years. Or the tax can be halved, aren’t these capitals for investment attraction?”

Fourth Master nodded, "Let the cabinet handle it later."

After the matter was settled, fourth master put the letter on the table and asked her, "How are the two children doing now?"

"Okay! I heard that the people who have conquered the bank are at least the grandsons of the emperor. They have a lot of knowledge and are very clever. They have conquered most of the people in the bank in just over two months." In the end, it was just Relying on her young age and her sweet mouth, she is able to come to things, so she has good popularity.

At least for Minning, it is still recognized. After some experience after going out, he has matured a lot.

After hearing this, the fourth master said, "Find a chance to call these two children back." With three children missing, I feel a lot more lonely.

What's more, it's summer vacation now, seeing the few children running around in the palace, fourth master had to think about the two older ones.

Minning shook his head, "This is not possible, we have to wait for a while, the banknotes have just been issued, and the truth has not yet been found out, and the two children also need to exercise, so they must figure out what is the purpose of our issuing banknotes. If you leave, you will lose all your success." Let the two children go out to work, isn't it just to recognize the role of banknotes, and in the future they will not listen to some people's nonsense and abolish banknotes at will.

When the fourth master heard this, he sighed and said, "How about we go and have a look?"

Minning thought for a while, then nodded. "I'll send someone to arrange it." She also missed children.

Kneeling on the ground was a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, with a round face, she looked very blessed.

If this is among the folks, this face shape must be a very popular candidate for a daughter-in-law.

What's even more special is that this girl has a round face, but the facial features fit together comfortably, and she is considered a beauty.

Holding the tea bowl, the queen took a sip of tea, and put the tea cup aside when she saw that the girl below was still kneeling motionless.

"Get up."

The girl stood up slowly, probably because of kneeling for a long time, her legs softened and she almost fell to her knees again.

The queen pretended not to see it, and knocked: "Your family deliberately took the path of Ulanara, and asked me to teach you to transfer to the Changchun Palace. From now on, you will be the female official of the Changchun Palace, so don't cause trouble, and don't waste it in vain. The kindness of the family." If it weren't for the idiot of her natal sister-in-law who saw that the money was open and took the money, which caused her mother-in-law to be embarrassed, the queen would not accept this mess for her sister-in-law.

Fortunately, he was only transferred to the Changchun Palace, and the queen didn't take it seriously, thinking that the other's family couldn't bear the child's suffering in the palace, so she begged for mercy and left.

The queen only hoped that she would be safe in the Changchun Palace and leave the palace at the age of 25.

After the beating, the queen made people retreat.

Anyway, there is only one more person to eat. Although she is a female official of Changchun Palace, the queen has no intention of treating her as a confidant at all.

After the girl left, Fanghua, the female official next to the queen, came over. Fangfei, who was deeply trusted by the queen, was already married. female officer.

Fanghua came in and bowed to the queen, and then said in a low voice: "Your maidservant has found out clearly, this female official Jia was sent to the palace to run for the former prince. She was not sent to the prince, and the prince was deposed, so she escaped unharmed. This time, it is possible that she came here for the Lord Long Live."

The queen picked up the tea again and took a sip indifferently, "So what if we are running towards Lord Long Live? Our Lord Long Live can't tolerate sand in his eyes. If we know the deeds of this female official Jia, I'm sure I can't wait to get rid of it." pleasure."

After that, the queen didn't take this matter to heart, and asked about Concubine An's movements in the past few days.

Ever since Concubine An and the emperor sneaked out of the palace last time, the empress began to inquire, but unexpectedly there was no movement for more than a month.

Fanghua said, "Back to the master, the maidservant secretly sent someone to ask the little eunuch on duty in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. I heard that the Lord Long Live does not avoid Concubine An when he is dealing with business."

The queen narrowed her eyes, "Investigate again, and make sure to get the evidence."

Fanghua agreed in a low voice.

Minning didn't know that a crisis was coming, so she left the palace with Fourth Master and came to the outer city near Zhushikou.

When Minning came here, he felt a little familiar. After thinking about it, isn't this the place where he had been before?

Back then, I followed this road to find my family.

It's just that the old house has been sold, and the An's family has moved into the inner city. All the disgraceful memories of the past have been left behind, and they don't want to recall them anymore.

Minning has seldom seen her family in recent years. For her, seven or eight families make them worry about food and clothing, which is the end of the cause and effect of the original body.

Over the years, Minning has become more and more sober, and clearly knows that he is a person from another world and has nothing to do with this body.

Only in this way can we draw a clear line with Anjia.

The An family probably knew that if it wasn't for Minning, the An family would not have such a good life. Even if their daughter became a concubine, the An family would not have thought of clinging to her.

After all, this daughter has not been raised for long, but it has brought great benefits to the family.

What's more, since she got married, she didn't go back to her mother's house very often, which has already shown her attitude.

Minning was not close to her natal family.

The guard in front led the way and led the two of them to a dilapidated small courtyard. From the outside, there was only a small door.

The guard held the lock in front of the door, twisted it a few times, and the lock broke.

After pushing open the door, the guard stepped aside, Fourth Master and Min Ning stepped into the threshold together, only to find that there was only a palm-sized yard inside, with buckets and a water tank with only one floor left. Look inside and meet a room facing south.

A look of distress flashed across Fourth Master's face, "These two children live in this kind of place?" There is only one room in all, how can two children live in it?

Min Ning glanced at the yard, there were only a few weeds growing on the one-meter open space in the yard, if he didn't know that the two children really lived here, he would have thought it was just a deserted house.

"Open the door." Minning said to the guards beside him.

The guard stepped forward again and unscrewed the lock on the door, pushed the door open and took a glance, making sure there was no danger inside before stepping aside.

Fourth Master dragged Min Ning in. Although there was only one room, the room was quite spacious. It was a lobby room with a large bed on the side near the door.There was a wooden box next to it, and the dirty clothes of the two children were scattered on the box.

There is a generous table next to it, and under the table are two long benches painted with red paint, but the red paint looks mottled and dull due to the age.

Fourth master walked to the corner, bent down and picked up a bag.

Putting the bag on the table, he opened it and found that there were quite a few kaleidoscopes left inside.

Fourth master's nose was sour, and his eyes became moist.

Minning curled his lips and turned his head away, afraid that Fourth Master would find out that he would become angry from embarrassment.

She continued to look around the house, the ground was covered with mud, which was uneven at this time, and this kind of ground would be even more rotten when it rained.

The room is bare and there is nothing there. It can be seen that this is only a place for the two children to sleep, and they don't stay here often on weekdays.

Minning went out again. There was a stove near the corner of the door, and the fire under the stove was suffocated.

She wrapped a handkerchief around the kettle and picked it up to see that the fire below was almost extinguished, so she quickly replaced a piece of charcoal with a fire clip.

Fourth Master came out and said anxiously, "How do you arrange for two children to live in this kind of place?"

Minning didn't take this trivial matter to heart. Perhaps for fourth master, the two children had suffered a lot, but for her, it was a bit harder to live, eating and drinking at the bank, so they really didn't suffer. Where is the child.

When she followed the traffickers when she was a child, that was the only time she complained. She got up early and worked late, and she was still hungry.

In contrast, the lives of the two children are day by day compared to her.

"Okay, you think I don't care about the child?" Minning rolled his eyes, and then said: "But the more difficult the day is, the more you can sharpen the child. The sharp edge of the sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. For Children's education, listen to me."

The fourth master was in a hurry, "I agree with you for educating the children harshly, but you didn't let the two children suffer, how old are they? Living in this kind of place, how can they grow up if they don't eat well and sleep well?"

Before, I only heard about how difficult it was for the two children, but I didn't expect that even the place where I lived was so difficult.

After seeing them this time, I was immediately touched in my heart. The two children fell into An Jia's hands, and it was really not easy.

"Then what do you want to do?" Minning didn't expect that after bringing fourth master here this time, he would change his attitude instantly.

The fourth master glanced at him and said, "At the very least, I need to change my place of residence."

Min Ning said coolly: "Then do you want to find two servant girls to wait on you?"

Fourth Master thought about it seriously, and finally shook his head, "That's not necessary!"

Minning rolled his eyes, "Forget it, let's stop arguing, let's talk about it when the two children come back."

Fourth Master reluctantly agreed.

The two returned to the house and sat down on the two only benches.

What followed was to find the only teapot in the house. After scrubbing it clean, he made a pot of tea. After searching around, he couldn’t find the teacup. In the end, he only picked two eating bowls, scrubbed them clean and presented them. .

Minning took a sip of the tea and found that the water quality was not good, but the taste was still good.It should be the reason for the tea, which was obviously brought out from the palace.

Then it occurred to Hong Kyung that it should be done by him. He was used to drinking good tea with the Supreme Emperor, and kept a lot of tea leaves that the Supreme Emperor rewarded him.

This time when the two of them came out, it was precisely time.

After waiting for about half an hour, the two children came back together.

Hong Kyung and Hong Shi walked to the door and found that the outside door lock was broken, and they were shocked, thinking that a thief had entered inside.

Later, I felt relieved after thinking that the only money I had left on my body was deposited in the bank.

The two pushed open the door and went in, and saw the guards guarding the yard at a glance.

After seeing the two of them, the guard hurriedly knelt down to salute.

Hong Kyung and Hong Shi's eyes lit up, and they immediately understood who was coming?

The two rushed into the house in a hurry, "Khan Ama! Er Niang/An Er Niang!"

The fourth master found out that the two sons were getting darker, stronger and thinner, so he felt distressed all of a sudden. However, as a father in this era, he was not used to expressing his feelings for his children.

On the other hand, Min Ning said with a smile, "That's right, it looks like you've grown a lot." Then he said to Hongshi, "Your mother has been thinking about you for a while, and always blames you for being in Mulan. If you play crazy in the paddock and don’t write her a letter, you can write a letter later and have someone take her into the palace.”

Hiroshi readily agreed.

The busy fourth master looked at Hong Jing, and found that his third son's eyes were much sharper, and his temperament had indeed changed a lot, so he nodded secretly in his heart.

Unexpectedly, An Jia's hard-working education has such a good effect.Turn around, wait for the other children to grow up, and throw them out together to try.Why not eat minced meat if you can't raise it?That made the world ridicule.

"How do you feel outside during this time?" Fourth Master asked Hong Kyung.

Hong Kyung gave a wry smile and said, "As Huihan Amma said, my son's going outside during this time can be said to be an eye-opener, and he has come into contact with many people and things that he has never touched before, which deeply touched his son."

The fourth master nodded, it can be seen that during this period of time, Hong Jing has indeed hit a lot of walls, and the original state of drifting has returned to the time when he was down-to-earth.

A change in one's spirit is easy to see.

Not only is Hong Kyung different, but even Hong Shi is very different, at least this kid has behaved a little better, and he doesn't interrupt like before.

Thinking of this, fourth master immediately changed his mind. If the two children were suffering from this problem, he would open his mouth and encourage the two children to make persistent efforts.

After seeing the two children, the two children are doing very well, Fourth Master and Min Ning did not delay any longer, and returned to the palace before the palace gate was closed.

Fourth Master returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Min Ning returned to Ningshou Palace, and there were people observing the movement in these two places, and after a long time, they quietly returned to Changchun Palace.

Knowing that the emperor and the imperial concubine had sneaked out of the palace again, the empress looked uncertain, "Send someone to find my eldest brother, and find out what is outside the palace that attracts these two!"

The Beijing Medical College and the Tianjin Astronomical College can be said to be university colleges side by side, but the Beijing Medical College only teaches medical skills, while the Tianjin Astronomical College is divided into two and a half factions.

One teaches astronomy and astrology, and the other teaches arithmetic.

In the beginning, it was the lead in mathematics and then astronomy and astrology came from behind, and it became the signature of Tianjin University.

Perhaps it can be said that scholars in this era are somewhat obsessed and superstitious about astrology, so although astronomy includes Western astrology, it still has a certain appeal to scholars.

Maybe there will not be one or two people who like astronomy, and then there are so many places in the country, and only Tianjin College can learn new things in a real system. After the reputation expander, Tianjin College also welcomed many people who came to study students.

What makes the School of Astronomy most famous is an observatory on the back mountain of the School of Astronomy. Sometimes when the weather is good at night, you can even see the scene on the moon clearly.

Through astronomical telescopes, people also know that there is no sweet-scented osmanthus tree, no Wu Gang, no jade rabbit, and no Chang'e on the moon.

There is nothing on the moon, only one mountain after another.

The use of astronomical telescopes has made more people interested in the stars in the sky.

No longer just chasing the moon, but even starting to pay attention to the stars one after another.

The sky at night is so fascinating that many people are fascinated when they first come into contact with astronomy.

Until a few years passed, the Astronomical Academy in Tianjin had become a well-known academy.

Although more and more colleges have been established in these years, some specialize in teaching accounting, some specialize in farming, and some specialize in teaching piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Comes with tax cuts.

However, Tianjin Academy is the most famous among them.

Now the imperial court encourages the running of schools, and is even willing to reduce or exempt a certain amount of taxes, which makes businessmen from all over the place flock here.

In fact, the commercial tax has been raised higher and higher in the past few years. Although it is said that doing business is very simple, and there is even a trend that the supply exceeds demand, many people still feel pain in handing over so many games for nothing.

It would be different if running a school was not only encouraged by the imperial court, but building bridges and paving roads to set up a school in the hometown was a matter of great merit, and many businessmen were able to build one.

Coupled with a certain amount of tax exemption, in just a few years in the Qing Dynasty, a large number of colleges blossomed everywhere.

Fortunately, most of the private schools allowed by the imperial court are boys' academies, and the books of the boys' academies are uniformly printed across the country. There is no tuition fee, and at most they only charge for books.

Although there are still some children who cannot go to school, compared with the past, the fate of many people has changed.

There are several scientific research institutes in Tianjin University, and there are many more nearby.

Some specialize in telescopes that see farther away, while others work with more standard lenses.

Almost most research institutes revolve around astronomical telescopes.

Of course, it is not without exception that there is a very special research institute, which is not only not related to astronomical telescopes, but also has nothing to do with Tianjin University.

However, this research institute was set up in the Tianjin Academy, which belonged to the northern corner, and there were very few people who came here on weekdays. Although there was a sign of a research institute, there were not many people who really knew about this place.

On this day, it was already dark, but the research institute was completely dark, and the lights were not turned on at all.But looking at the faint figures, there are more than a dozen people, so many people gather in a room without turning on the lights, it is really curious.

Someone said in the darkness, "Old Zheng, turn on the light!"

After other people in the crowd heard it, they all encouraged the old Zheng to turn on the light.

A person squatting in the middle of the room carefully turned the object in his hand, and then a light flashed, and then it turned on.

The room was suddenly brightly lit, and everyone shouted excitedly, "It's done!"

"Ah! We have succeeded!"

Many people cheered and hugged it, but it was really not easy. After several years of experimentation, the lamp was finally made.

Their research institute is divided into two groups, one group studies electricity, and the other group studies light bulbs.

After four or five years of groping through the information given above, basically the groping is almost the same.

The only trouble is the light bulb. The filament inside is difficult to handle. There is a message on the Internet saying that tungsten filament can be used, but they don’t know what tungsten filament is. They can only find out the existing metals and try one by one.

Later, the existing metal was not found, and people were sent to find new ores. It was not until three years later that an ore was discovered by accident. After extraction, it fit the description given above.

It can really shine when it is powered on.

Electricity and light bulbs came out, and the wires were easily changed to copper wires. The only trouble is what to wrap the wires with. If you touch them, you will be electrocuted to death.

Fortunately, a few months ago, a bucket of rubber was sent from above, which was wrapped around the copper wire, and this problem was solved.

This time, the problem of air extraction in the bulb was finally solved, and the bulb was officially built.

Looking at the bright room, can everyone not be happy?This is five years, just to fix these few things, how many five years are there in one's life?

But thinking that after researching these few things, it will be enough for them to eat for a lifetime, and it will truly benefit the next generation, and many people are willing again.

"Old Zheng, hurry up and inform the outside, convince the capital, and tell the boss that we are done!" If the whole Qing Dynasty can use the lamps they use, although there are only ten years of dividends, the wealth earned in ten years is enough for them to enjoy For generations.

Thinking of this, many people's hearts thump with excitement.

What is the purpose of living such a research life?Isn't it just for this moment?

"The problem with the wires and light bulbs has been solved?" Minning received a letter. She mentioned the topic of electricity in Zhuangzi before, but because of this matter, it took too long to get the news, and she thought that this technology tree It is not lit.

Unexpectedly, good news came suddenly.

"What about power generation? Has the problem of power generation been solved?" Minning quickly sent someone to ask.

Soon he learned that the solution had been solved, and electricity could be turned on by burning coal, so he became happy and hurriedly sent to build a power station.

However, there is an important thing to solve here, and that is the problem of the wire sheath.

Now the rubber trees in Leizhou have just been planted, and it’s not time to pick up the rubber. In this way, at least they have to be transported to the Americas.

Thinking of this, Minning sent people to the task of the boatmen's union to collect rubber generously.There are a lot of points given this time, and these fleets that are in desperate need of points don't mind making a trip to get some rubber back.

This period of time will take at least half a year, and it will take more than half a year to build a power plant. By the way, let people study oil as soon as possible to see if they can be made out of plastic.

Using plastic is much more convenient than rubber, at least you don't need to travel all the way to America.

After everything was arranged, Minning breathed a sigh of relief, and hoped that electric lights could be used in the palace during the Chinese New Year.

"Second brother in Shandong has already dealt with it, and swept away the entire officialdom." The fourth master said as soon as he came in.

Seeing that he didn't look happy, Minning asked, "Then what else do you have to worry about?"

The fourth master sighed and said to her, "Although Shandong has been resolved, there are still other provinces. The second brother has submitted a paperwork to request to return to Beijing, and he is unwilling to interfere in the affairs of other provinces."

It can be seen that the establishment of the anti-corruption team this time has a very good effect, but Prince Li is only willing to deal with matters in Shandong Province, and she is unwilling to touch other provinces.

After hearing this, Min Ning murmured. This situation is also normal. The reason why Prince Li is willing to take over the affairs of Shandong is not because Shandong robbed him of his money and let him take the blame. Rather than anti-corruption, it is better Said it was to give him a chance to avenge himself publicly.

"Then let's send some more people there. Can you write a letter to Prince Li and check the officials in Shanxi, and help us bring this group of people along the way."

Fourth Master looked at her and asked, "Who do you think should be selected?" If you don't have enough status, you won't be able to hold down people in the officialdom.

Minning thought for a while before opening his mouth, "You have so many nephews waiting for errands, why don't you arrange them all this time, and join those boys who checked the accounts together, and make them up together."

If the fourth master was missing something, he then said, "You mean the clan?" Indeed, only people from the clan can suppress the identities of those officials.

Minning nodded, "Try to find someone under the age of 25. They are young and aggressive, but older people have more scruples. Anti-corruption should not be scruples. So this matter has to be handled by yourself." Can help her think of a way, how to do it depends on him.

The fourth master hesitated for a long time before nodding, "I'll send someone to look for it later." If you say that there are quite a lot of descendants of the Aixinjue Luo family, you can indeed form a huge team by picking and choosing.

After solving this matter, Fourth Master said again, "Recently, there are more and more banknotes on the market, and the court officials have given me the paper money. In order to avoid suing Khan Ama, I have written a letter and sent it as soon as possible. Go to Mulan Paddock."

After hearing this, Minning asked, "What questions do those officials have?"

"It's just some scaremongering, repeating the remarks about the danger of the treasures of the previous dynasty. Don't worry, I have told Khan Ama everything. The lack of copper coins in the Qing Dynasty is also a loss."

Minning breathed a sigh of relief, "Paper money is not enough to convince the people now, so the bank must not refuse people to exchange paper money for gold, silver and copper coins, otherwise, if there is a slight difference, it will cause people's distrust of paper money and cause the paper money to depreciate. There's an exchange crisis."

At least half of the bank has been infiltrated by the personnel of the household department, all of whom are young people hand-picked by the household department. In the future, the bank will definitely be in the hands of the household department.

The fourth master nodded and said, "I have already ordered this matter. By the way, I will issue a document that the imperial court will also use banknotes for tax collection. Any store is not allowed to refuse customers to use banknotes. If customers refuse to use banknotes, customers can inform the government and the government will warn them. "If paper currency wants to be promoted, it must start with the court itself.

If it weren't for the fact that paper money wasn't enough, fourth master would have given salaries to officials and switched to paper money.

Minning nodded. What she was afraid of was that some people would make a fuss, and some government assistants did solve the problem.

"Another problem is to crack down on counterfeit money! Anyone who finds out that counterfeit money without permission will be punished without mercy."

The most feared thing about issuing banknotes is counterfeit currency. Although it is easy to see that banknotes are placed together with genuine currency, people always have omissions. They are afraid that large-scale counterfeiting will cause people to reject banknotes.

After thinking about it, Minning decided to make plastic as soon as possible and see if he can issue plastic coins.

As long as you have a firm grasp of the plastic manufacturing process, you don't need to be afraid of counterfeit money.

However, at least for a short period of time, there is no need to worry about counterfeit money. Minning decided to popularize in the newspaper how to distinguish the difference between real money and counterfeit money.

Perhaps, after electricity is available, see if we can build a banknote detector!
