Chapter 887 Shen An, you are so cruel(1/2)
The earliest paper money of the Song Dynasty was Jiaozi. The background of Jiaozi was complex and could not guarantee its value, so it could only be circulated in Shu.
The merchants of the Song Dynasty had long been looking forward to seeing banknotes rampant one day, but when it was their turn, most of them were afraid.
The Song Dynasty was so big. If paper money was popular, it would bring countless times greater risks than Jiaozi. It would be no false to turn paper into waste paper. Everyone would go bankrupt collectively by then.
So when everyone was stunned when they heard Chen An say that they would use banknotes for future transactions.
"This...is probably inappropriate." Someone said tentatively: "The Marquis of Cong Xin is all trading with paper money, and paper money is not enough!"
The combined transaction volume of these people is very large, and in half a year, they will probably consume the banknotes currently issued.
Everyone thought Chen An was afraid that he was thrusting, but he said seriously: "This matter has been settled. From now on, all of them will be traded with paper money. How about you?"
"No, Marquis of Cong Xin..."
A businessman cried and cried, "I don't want to do it, I'll work hard for a business all my life, so I'll get some money. If I use all the banknotes, it will sooner or later turn into waste paper, and I won't do it!"
This is a sacrifice.
Chen An coughed dryly and said, "This matter... An Xiang is ahead. I am not afraid of having a lot of money than you. What are you afraid of when you wait?"
yes!
This great Song God of Wealth is not afraid!
But you are an official, and you will naturally be rewarded if you please the government. What about us? Who cares if we go bankrupt?
"Returning to the Marquis...we are willing to donate money."
Donating money is a trivial matter. Everyone will make up for you to get a million yuan to pay for your business. Let everyone let the banknotes go.
Chen An sighed, "Why is this a problem..."
"This is investment." He said earnestly: "When you are willing to support banknotes at this moment, the official will naturally remember it in your heart when you look back. The benefits... are so many!"
Everyone was still tearful.
This is not something I can do!
Chen An accepted his smile and said lightly: "Come..."
Bang!
Today, Chen An enclosed the place, so even the gate was closed.
At this moment, someone kicked the door open with a thunderous kick.
A group of soldiers stood outside the door, and Huang Chun was the leader.
Huang Chun glanced over the lobby and bowed, "The Mangshan Army is here, please give me the order."
Everyone was a little confused and looked at Chen An.
"What does this mean when returning to the Marquis of Return?"
Are you going to do it?
A gentleman doesn’t speak!
They think Chen An should be a gentleman...
"What do you think about this?"
The promotion of banknotes has made a good start, but if you want to spread it on a large scale, you must have these wealthy merchants come forward.
Chen An originally wanted to wait for the summer to see, but who knew that the officials did not accept banknotes? This was a chance to come to his house.
This is legal tender, but I dare not accept it and I’m trying to die!
The people naturally have nothing to do with them, but the wealthy merchants were stared at by him.
"Originally... Chen has always liked to talk kindly..."
Chen An smiled very kindly, but Huang Chun, who was standing behind him, was murderous.
"What do you think?"
He asked again, smiling very amiable.
But the merchants knew that this was probably impossible to escape.
Look at the village soldiers outside the door. It is reported that these murderous gods are even the most fierce Liao people, their defeated generals. To deal with some merchants, it is probably a warm-up for them.
This beast Chen An is actually ready to take the overlord into a tough position, shameless!
But what to do?
If someone else was here, they wouldn't be afraid even if they were tantrums.
But this is Chen An!
Who said he was a gentleman before?
Can a gentleman be as shameless as him?
Chen An sighed and said compassionately: "Everyone knows Chen's fragrance, and everyone is welcome to supervise. If the copper coins are collected in the future, Chen will be fined for a hundred coins if he receives a coin!"
His eyes turned, and everyone knew that this was said to them.
From today on, if you collect copper coins in bulk transactions, you will be compensated with a hundred yuan.
Damn it!
Is this too cruel?
The businessmen were speechless, but when Chen An took the lead, if they wanted to go bankrupt and everyone went bankrupt together, most of the dissatisfaction would be dissipated, and the rest would probably have to wait to go back and slowly self-relieve.
"Abide by the order of the Marquis of Returning to the Trustee."
A hero does not suffer any loss at the moment, so he should respond first.
"All of them are good people!"
Chen An exclaimed and raised his glass and said, "If the banknotes turn into waste paper, Chen's family can only drink the northwest wind, so if you don't believe anything else, don't you believe Chen?"
“Yes, yes, yes.”
Once you agree, your attitude will immediately change to cooperation so that you can maximize your interests.
The merchants are all wise men, and they immediately began to praise Chen An.
But everyone was thinking, even if you Chen An went bankrupt because of banknotes, you still have a salary!
This guy is a lecturer, and the title and salary of the Marquis of Congxin are mixed, so it is no problem to support the family.
After drinking a drink, Chen An's eyes were a little straight.
"Everyone is hurry up! When you look back, who has no banknotes in your hands, just go find Sanshi to exchange..."
The merchants were thinking about this.
At present, if you use copper coins to exchange paper money privately on the market, you can save about 20 cents. The amount they exchange is large, and the sum of it is a lot of money!
Damn! Go quickly!
The merchants ran away, one of them tripped at the threshold, and two of them broke their teeth, and they immediately exhaled in pain.
"Hey! What a big deal, how much money." Chen An frowned and said, "My Chen is not afraid of having nothing, what are you afraid of?"
When everyone thought about it, they felt that they were running wildly was really embarrassing.
Someone went to help the businessman up, and someone picked up two front teeth and said, "I know there is a place where the teeth are ready to be filled. You can leave your teeth and let him find a way to get them up."
Someone next to him said, "Even if it is lost, it's okay. They have teeth in those places. Wouldn't it be better to choose two full ones to replace them?"
These people feel a little superior when they talk about this.
Brother is rich!
But those teeth were pulled out of the dead man's mouth. Chen An couldn't help but shivered when he thought of this.
Everyone surrounded him and walked out, and along the way, they met many businessmen, who warmly greeted everyone.
"I've seen the Marquis of Congxin."
"Hello, hello."
"I've seen the Marquis of Congxin."
"Hello."
There are too many people saying hello to Shen An, so he can't respond carefully one by one, and he will use your pleasure to perfunctory.
Brother, this is a bit of power in inspecting the work!
In the face of numerous enthusiasm, Chen An finally felt a little fluttering.
This is life. He hopes that he can have more glory, let himself and the Song Dynasty shine.
There are also descendants, so you have to plan more for them, and it seems that there are fewer children, right?
Others have more than a dozen children, and the Shen family currently has only one taro, which is really pitiful.
Not short of money, why only one child is born?
To be continued...
