Chapter 119 I, someone from Yang, said everything

Jiuhua Yuluxiang shop will receive a large amount of treasure money every day. In addition to some of it being transported to the Tijuan Department, it will also release a part of it secretly every day, but it will be less and less every day.

Those Ming Dynasty merchants came perfectly with a wave of divine assists.

Yang Shaofeng always thought that the concept of flat wife was played by Mi Qing, but in fact, it already existed in the Ming Dynasty. However, the flat wife of the Ming Dynasty was made privately by these merchants. It was a title for concubines placed outside. It was not protected by the Ming Dynasty's laws and could not be officially recognized.

However, what is the use of whether the official admits it or not to these merchants? Anyway, it does not violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and it is enough to not favor concubines and destroy wives.

Since you are a concubine, you must have a favored attitude.

What is money? Not to mention the merchants who manage shops for the noble family, they are not short of money to buy a bottle of Jiuhua Yuluxiang to please the concubine. Wouldn't this concubine be more gentle and considerate?

In addition, the border city itself is a highly commercial city, and the most common ones in the city are merchants from the Ming Dynasty and other places. Even more and more Tatars and Oirats are not as large as these people.

The result of these people is that there are many so-called common wives in the border city, and these women are not short of money, so they naturally add to the hotter and hotter Jiuhua Yulu fragrance.

Yang Shaofeng began to reduce the supply of some of the Jiuhua Jade Dew fragrance, because the petals were insufficient.

In addition, there are not too many treasure banknotes in the entire border city, so at the craziest time, some people even exchanged ten taels of silver for nine guan treasure banknotes.

This inexplicable situation made many businessmen see business opportunities. Is the Ming Dynasty’s treasure banknote valuable? In the Ming Dynasty, ten taels of silver can be exchanged for dozens of or even hundreds of treasure banknotes!

In this case, less than two months after the incense of Jiuhua Yulu became popular, many merchants returned to the border city with a large amount of treasure money.

Yang Shaofeng took out the real mirror again.

There were craftsmen who burned glass in the Ming Dynasty. As long as they were willing to invest in it, it would be no problem to let these craftsmen create the mirrors that Yang Shaofeng remembered.

In addition, Yang Shaofeng proposed the concept of assembly line operation. The price of these mirrors is basically the same as perfume. The standing mirror costs ten taels of silver, half of the body only costs five taels, and the palm size only costs one tael.

As for the cost, the cost of standing mirrors that are high is about 300 mins, while the cost of half a body is only 200 mins, while the cost of the size of a palm cannot even be used for 30 mins.

Just like the routine of Jiuhua Yuluxiang, these mirrors only collect treasure money but not silver.

In order to prevent more Ming Dynasty merchants from bringing treasure money to the border city to make trouble, Yang Shaofeng immediately proposed that all commercial taxes in the border city will be collected, and only those under 100 cents will be charged copper coins. Even if there are 101 cents of commercial tax, one hundred cents of treasure money and one cent of copper coins will have to take out 100 cents of treasure money and one cent of copper coins, otherwise it will not be considered tax payment.

The merchants of the Ming Dynasty naturally knew that Baochao was not valuable, but the problem was that Baochao was not valuable was within the Great Wall. It was a border city. I wanted to wait for the next batch of Baochao to arrive at the border city. There was a time difference between them. In this time difference, no matter what, you must ensure that you have enough Baochao to pay taxes, otherwise you will face the risk of being kicked out of the border city.

In order to increase the value of the treasure banknote and the actual circulation probability, Yang Shaofeng even instructed Lin Yu to announce a new regulation in Zuixianlou to use the treasure banknote to settle the settlement, and the ratio to gold and silver is one to one, that is, the treasure banknote with a consistent face value can be used as one tael of silver.

Then, even coal and coal slime need to be settled with treasure banknotes.

As soon as various routines were released, the treasure money that was just getting more abundant on the market became nervous again. If Yang Shaofeng had not secretly exchanged a batch of treasure money, I was afraid someone would have taken the risk.

Zhu Zhanji, who ran to Bianshi City when he was bored, said that he was confused.

If you think about these methods that Yang Shaofeng played, in fact, there is no method that is so clever. If it were the big guys in the court who could do it, it would probably be a little more expensive to play.

But it is obvious that no matter how rough the methods are, they have achieved the goal that Yang Shaofeng wants, and it is far beyond expectations.

There were already Tatars and Oirats who asked to use treasure deposits when they came to sell cattle and sheep!

This is very abnormal.

The same Daming Baochao, within the Great Wall, the value of the Baochao is only one-tenth or even lower than its face value, but outside the Great Wall, the value of the Baochao can reach its prescribed face value, and it is even slightly more than it is.

Faced with Zhu Zhanji's question, Yang Shaofeng said: "Don't you think the border city is different from other cities in the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Zhanji said curiously: "What's the difference?"

Yang Shaofeng pointed to the busy construction site and smiled and said, "What's the same? In the Ming Dynasty, any two adjacent cities only take a day or even less than a day, but what about here?

Because the distance is too long, it can even be said to be isolated from the world. It takes a long time for a large amount of treasure money to be transported in, and not everyone can bear it during this period.

In particular, the Tijuan Office also stipulates that all taxes can only be paid in the form of treasure banknotes, which means that even if the merchants have treasure banknotes, they dare not exchange them in large quantities. At least they must ensure that the remaining part in their hands is enough to pay the tax amount for the month.

Also, apart from perfume and mirrors, even the most basic fuel needs treasure money to buy, do you think they dare not take treasure money seriously?

Don’t forget that perfume and mirrors are exclusive, and I monopolize the fuel. When I said I would collect treasure money, they would not dare to take the silver, so this phenomenon occurred, which is not surprising at all.”

Zhu Zhanji hesitated and said, "What if, what if, they transported a large amount of treasure money from outside?"

Yang Shaofeng smiled sinisterly and said, "Let's talk about it when they can pass the Wanquan Right Guard! I have already greeted Wanquandusi and Wanquan Right Guard, and all the levels leading to the border city. The treasure banknotes that each person carries are not allowed to exceed ten stakes, which means they cannot get a large amount of treasure banknotes unless they don't even care about their lives."

Zhu Zhanji still shook his head and said, "No. Even so, these people probably have a way to avoid it."

After thinking about it, Zhu Zhanji continued, "Look, I spent one tael of silver in the capital for ten taels of treasure money, and then came to you to buy two bottles of perfume and get it back to the Ming Dynasty to sell. You can earn nine taels inside and outside, right? You can't forbid anyone to bring perfume into the pass, right?"

Yang Shaofeng shouted: "You think everyone else is a fool? Can you think of it, but others can't think of it?

But you have to think about it. When many people know this news, even if they cannot come to the border city by themselves for various reasons, will they not increase the exchange price of treasure banknotes and silver?

Of course, there may be people among these people who have time and regional differences. For example, relying on the inconvenience of information transmission, some people will use money to exchange treasure money in some remote places to make profits from it. I really can't stop this and can't solve it.

But one thing is that while those remote places are inconvenient to transmit information, they also doomed that the people will not have too many treasure money in their hands, and they even just enough for them to exchange for salt. Therefore, it is a false proposition to exchange a large amount of treasure money from the people.

And you also forgot one thing, that is, they exchanged Baochao and came to Bianshi City again, and it took time and meals on the way. The Ming Dynasty was like a more laughing tax. If all the invisible costs were included, these people would probably be in vain.

In other words, the more people exchange silver for treasure banknotes, the higher the value of treasure banknotes, and ultimately it is equal to the silver or even exceeds the silver. This is the essence of credit currency and the original function of the Ming Bao Banknotes."

Zhu Zhanji thought for a while before saying, "So, will the Tatars and Oirats ask for a part of the settlement with treasure money?"

Yang Shaofeng nodded and said, "No, even if they know that Baochao is useless elsewhere, is this important? As long as they can use one to one or even more ratios in border cities, they will be content.

Because they can't buy what they need elsewhere, such as iron pots, salt tea, and coal slime, they don't care how low the Baochao is within the Great Wall, they only care about how high the Baochao is in the border city."

Zhu Zhanji was still a little confused: "Then they are not worried that one day a large amount of treasure money will suddenly pour in, causing the treasure money to lose its value again?"

Yang Shaofeng said with a roar: "As the same sentence just now, how could it be possible for a large number of people to pour in? Don't forget that Baochao Department will not issue new banknotes within three years, or will only issue some new banknotes for exchange for old banknotes, and will not print in large quantities. Even if it is printed later, it will be based on the actual situation of the treasury.

As a result, the amount of treasure money on the market is actually gradually decreasing, while the existence of border cities has accelerated the reduction of treasure money.

Moreover, as long as I stay in the border city for one day, they will not worry about it for a day. This is the credit that I, Mr. Yang, has accumulated with sincerity in the border city for more than half a year.

Because I had piled up a lot of silver in the warehouse of the Tijuan Division, I still let the Tatars and Oirats watch the people piled in with their own eyes, and now I am still piled up in it every day.

I told them that if one day the treasure money is worthless, I welcome them to come to Tiju to take away the money."

Zhu Zhanji said: "If, I mean, what if, what if, if there is a treasure banknote that is suddenly worthless, then what if? Would you let them take the money away?"

Yang Shaofeng glanced at Zhu Zhanji and sneered: "If we can't guarantee the value of the treasure money so hard, then wouldn't we have to do it in vain?

To take a step back, even if there is really one day, I certainly agree. After all, once I, Mr. Yang, said it, it is difficult to chase any horse, so naturally I cannot regret it.

But will you agree with Zhu Erjiu? Will the Duke of England and Duke Cheng agree? Will the old man Xia Yuanji agree? Will his Majesty agree? Will his old man agree?

You don’t agree, what does it have to do with me, Mr. Yang?”
