Chapter 552

In early March of the third year of Daguan.

The first sample of the banknote on Jiangnan East Road was completed. I held it in my hand and felt it. It was shaking. It was still somewhat different from the banknotes in later generations. Of course, forging is more difficult than that in later generations. Because the cutting-edge technology of this era was in the Song Dynasty government and in later generations, it was among the people.

Gao Fangping didn't understand this, but he just mentioned the crisp sound of paper money to them, which was obviously different from the quality of other papers, and the addition of watermarks and other requirements were all the brains that their technicians had opened.

Now they have done it and have done it very well. Gao Fangping believes that it is difficult to forge substitutions besides themselves.

As for them, it was not difficult to prevent them. Gao Fangping organized them to study "judicial". He opened the history of the criminal case in Jiangzhou and looked at countless cases where Gao Fangping sentenced to death. After listening to Han Shizhong's description, half of the people at the scene were pale. So when Han Shizhong's spies peeked at their actions in the evening, they found that most of them were hiding at home and burning the banknotes they had hidden.

This problem is very serious. Gao Fangping wanted to kill people as soon as he committed a crime. However, since the banknotes have not started to operate, it is not considered money, and it is difficult for officials in the Song Dynasty to convict them with corruption.

Fortunately, the first set of banknotes contained the portraits of Emperor Taizu and the current emperor Zhao Ji, so this group of people who burned banknotes were arrested by Gao Fangping. Chang Wei said that love was useless. Anyone without an official position was captured by Gao Fangping and was killed immediately. The reason was that he was dissatisfied with the Song Dynasty, anti-social order, maliciously confronted the court policy, and maliciously insulted Emperor Taizu and the current emperor.

People with official positions were imprisoned and sent back to the Ministry of Personnel to Zhang Shangying in a parade. They did whatever they wanted.

So, I believe that their group of sharks should be at peace for a while, at least after the rise of Jiangzhou...

With a tragic mood, Guan Qi rode a donkey and smoking tobacco, watching Bi Shijing's troops transport his gold and silver into the Jiangzhou treasury.

Guan Qi had never seen such a powerful bunker. I heard that it was built by some mysterious thing in Jiangzhou Cement Factory. During the test and acceptance, Shuai Si temporarily mobilized many of them, but he only blew the bunker a little blackened. The color was similar to Guan Qi, and the others did not move at all.

Guan Qi did not think the vault was terrifying, but he knew that after time and technology and production capacity were improved, the city built with this thing would not be compromised.

Yes, in order to make a fortune, Guan Qi became the first person on Jiangnan East Road to exchange paper money in large quantities.

He placed huge orders for Jiangzhou Textile Factory, Jiangzhou Agricultural Tool Factory, Jiangnan Shipyard, etc., waiting to pay the deposit, but people said that the deposit would only collect paper money. So the first batch of gold and silver he mobilized was sent to Jiangzhou Vault, in exchange for a bunch of exquisitely printed paper.

The thing Guan Qi wanted most was cement. He rushed to the cement factory to buy a lump. He thought he would not sell it, but after paying two tickets, he carried a generation of cement and threw it out to Guan Qi.

So Guan Qi got drunk and vowed not to sell cement anymore. Although it was good, it was very expensive and heavy. Why did he get it with just one bag?

Only then did Guan Qi understand that for now, cement is not a civilian product at all, but a military luxury product, and is in the development stage.

Gao Fangping's judgment was correct. After Guan Qi took the lead, there was indeed a group of merchants who had tried to exchange some banknotes, but the amount was not large, but after starting and maintaining their credibility, everything would come naturally in the future. There is no need to hurry up these things.

So the people led by Guan Qi were considered the first batch of local tyrants using paper money.

The second group is the current large group of state-owned enterprises. Since March, their salary has been paid with banknotes. These guys don’t know anything. They accept banknotes just because they trust Gao Fangping.

The group of ordinary people who trust Gao Fangping is in the third batch. There is no need for too many reasons. Although many businesses in the street market do not accept paper money for the time being, those people do not have many good things in their hands now. The people only know that after using paper money, they will accept it, at least part of it will accept it first.

Therefore, the characteristic of this period was that paper money and copper coins coexisted. Some merchants did not accept paper money, so their business was snatched up by the merchants who first collected paper money. That's all.

Paper money can be used to pay rent for public housing, pay taxes, pay medical expenses in Anjifang, etc. After using it a few times, the people of the big head trusted them. As a result, the trial operation of paper money was a good start. When more people came to exchange it, the government had closed down and said it was gone, so they were waiting for the next period.

In fact, it is not that the banknotes are gone, but that Fan Ziyi is an old-fashioned person who strictly abides by Zhang Shuye's instructions and puts as much money as the gold, silver and copper. The first "bunker vault" is already full, and the second phase of the project is still under construction, so if you can't collect gold and silver for the time being, you can only wait.

Except for Guan Qi, everyone thinks that the things in the vault are confidence and the backing of everything, so the banknotes are trustworthy. Including Zhang Shuye, Changwei and Fan Ziyi, they all think so.

In fact, Gao Fangping has already said that the thing in the vault is an egg. The reason why banknotes are successful is that I have already become productive in Jiangzhou, the batch of cheap cloths in textile factories, the ships in shipyards, the evaluation of eggs, feed, pork, milk in the first, second and third farms. The technology and accumulation of the Agricultural and Water Conservancy Engineering Bureau. These are the core of truly supporting banknotes.

However, no one really believed Xiao Gao. They cried and shouted that gold and silver were the king. This was good, Gao Fangping felt that I would go to the Japanese island to rob enough gold and silver to come back for you to defraud your labor, technology and enthusiasm. I am different from you, I only want these of you.

This is a scam, but this scam is enough to support the rise of the empire and the time when the Song Dynasty Invincible Armada raided the Mediterranean...

The preparations for spring plowing are about to be prepared. So the landlords in Jiangzhou finally cried and felt the catastrophe. They were forced by the great devil to be ready to die.

The reason is that the arable land in their hands is depreciating significantly, which is enough to make them frightened and cry for their parents.

The Great Demon King dominates all occasions, and those who do not follow the Great Demon King are destined to be eliminated by the times. This is what Li Gang has been saying to everyone.

However, they did not believe it. At that time, they added pressure to Gao Fangping in the cold winter and fired countless long-term workers in their hands, making them homeless and starving and freezing. This group has as many as 50,000 people.

Gao Fangping resisted it, using porridge, painting cakes, public housing, and Anjifang's medical system to barely stabilize these people.

The landlords did not compromise with Gao Fangping. As the beginning of spring approached, they still wanted to fight against themselves by means of 800. They planned to give up spring plowing and wait for the second food crisis in Jiangzhou to wait for Gao Fangping to compromise.

However, after all the first phase of Gao Fangping water pump towers were accepted and operated, more than 20,000 acres of terraced fields were added out of thin air, and they began to panic, because that meant that what they had was not in hand was necessary.

This situation has just begun. It is not that Gao Fangping's water pump tower has only one phase. Nearly 10,000 workers from the Agricultural and Water Conservancy Engineering Bureau are blooming everywhere and work day and night. Now the second phase of the water pump tower has been partially completed. Nearly 70,000 acres of extra official fields are already preparing for spring plowing, but the group of people who were fired by them at that time, who had the spirit of hard work and planting skills have been allocated to state-owned arable land.

And I also heard that the third phase of the water pump city tower has been launched. Given that the technology and experience are more mature, I heard that the construction speed of the third phase will accelerate and it can still catch up with the spring plowing. Therefore, it is rumored that after the third phase, tens of thousands of acres of land will become official assets.

When there are too many things, the land price will of course drop. In addition, when these landlords saw that the situation was wrong and wanted to invite the farmers back, the farmers and Gao Fangping said together: OK, but the price must be negotiated again.

The decline in arable land prices and the increase in employment prices are the reasons why these guys cried blindly.

Sorry, the firing tenants had been signed by Gao Fangping, and they were a long-term worker for life. So now those who were crying and waiting to hire workers can only talk to the government. After the talks, Gao Fangping sent these state-owned people to farm for their landlords. Damn, Gao Fangping accidentally created a "reverse labor dispatch".

Faced with this situation, some people chose to accept it, intending to give up certain vested interests and share their future interests with Gao Fangping.

Others began to sell their property in groups and planned to flee. Gao Fangping didn't even react for a while. Where did they plan to escape, Suzhou and Hangzhou?

But Guan Qi understood the mentality of these people. When he chatted with Gao Fangping, he pointed out incisively that the places where these guys fled to the Liao Kingdom, Xixia, Dali, even Tubo, Japan, and Dashi.

"The Liao Kingdom, Japan, Dali are not bad, and the Chineseization is very serious. They will be welcomed when they go." Guan Qi took a sip of tea and said with a grim smile: "As for the Western Xia Tubo Food, hehe... After they go... I won't say it anymore, that's not my business."

Gao Fangping felt that Guan Qi was really a wise man. Liao Kingdom was seriously sinicized and did not look down on the Song people very much, but this period required blood transfusions from these capitals. As for Japan, they admired the Song people. As for Dali, it was a harmless and lazy person. Given the relationship between longitude and latitude, they were the least likely people to freeze to death in this era, so they were not angry and made money.

Given the deflation faced by the Song Dynasty and the fact that Jiangnan was injured by the Dashiqian, frankly speaking, if they had no paper money, they would indeed make the government cry and be blinded by evacuation. However, the harm is limited now. It even has certain benefits to Gao Fangping.
