Chapter 820: The Advantages of Treasure Banknotes: Low-Value Seal
Zhu Yuanzhang walked around to digest food. He drank a lot of beer. In order not to go back and forth to the toilet at night, he walked as much as possible to digest as much water as possible.
After that, there was less stuff in my stomach, so I took a bath, had someone massage me, and lit some soothing incense to sleep.
It is getting dark. The days in March are still not long enough in the Gregorian calendar, so it gets dark early.
People who didn’t cook came out to eat, and people who did hard work earned today’s wages. Those who earned more took out a few coins to buy food, wine, and wine to drink back.
The best thing is naturally the iron plate chicken rack. One chicken rack is enough to drink two taels of wine, or half a catty of rice wine, and a large bamboo tube of beer.
“Why did he give me more than money?” A person who was waiting to buy a sizzling chicken rack saw someone buying a chicken rack, but was given half an extra chicken rack.
That’s half. Nowadays, there are more chickens. An iron plate chicken rack costs one penny. According to the extra money, two pence can buy three.
He doesn’t dare to cause trouble, but he needs to understand why he is not worried about scarcity but inequality.
“Why don’t we exchange the precious notes he used for precious notes? Hurry up and go Exchange it, and then use the treasure money to buy things in Qiucun at a discount and break the bones," the man selling the sizzling chicken rack explained patiently.
"He also broke bones. If anyone wants to, beat me to death. What's the difference? I'll exchange the copper coins for precious notes. When I come back, I'll give you the copper coins. What's the difference? Take off your pants and fart. It's a waste of time. . "This man is reasonable.
"It's different. You buy a chicken rack for one penny at a time, and you can exchange it for at least twenty coins at a time. Then you use the exchange money to buy wine, and you give more." The chicken rack seller continued. explain.
"I just want to know"
"If you don't want to know, you can either pay for it now or go and change it. Don't block it, I'm still buying it." There are people queuing up behind Not happy anymore.
"Let's ask if you can't buy it. If you buy it, you can also use paper money. I heard that it happened in the Yuan Dynasty, but it's useless." The man looked back and stepped aside.
"There's no need for you to use copper coins. I'll use treasure notes. I'll buy three for two cents. I eat too much meat in winter. Chicken racks are cheap, but the price will rise again in a few days."

"You bought three, where did you exchange them?"
"At the lunch box shop, other stores do business, but the lunch box shop sells them for a while at noon."
"Then I am still in the queue?"
"Forget it, you can just buy whoever is waiting for you with copper coins."
"No, no, no, no, I Change it, and then spend two pennies to buy three for the family. "
"It means you want to buy one and eat it yourself. Men really spend it without caring about the family."
"As if you are not a man."
"I am a family man, can you leave?"
"Humph" the man left his position and looked back Team, regret it. He shouted, "Leave three for me, I'll be right back."
Like the chicken rack sellers, all businesses in Xiaqiu Village will give discounts or gifts.I had to give something away. The chicken racks were too cheap and I couldn’t discount them, so I had to give them away.
Some can give you a 10% discount, or you can give more things, depending on the money. Those with ten cents can get a 10% discount, but those with two cents cannot.
When buying clothes, ceramics, bags of rice and noodles, etc., the discounts are obvious.
If you go to a night snack place, it costs three pennies for a serving of rice noodles, plus two more fish balls.
There is no discount when exchanging money. Not only is there no discount, but it also depends on the condition of the copper coin. If the condition is not good, the copper coin will be given a discount.
How can legal currency be discounted? The more discounted it is, the less likely it is to be exchanged. It can only be discounted on goods, which can be used to increase the value of banknotes in disguise.
In the entire night snack street, all the shops were asked to give extra benefits, and then they took the treasure money and gave them the same discount when paying.
If the stall thinks that it is more honest and does not give discounts to those who take treasure coins, then no one will buy from it, and it will be easier to find another stall.
The discount depends on the profit. The higher the profit, the greater the discount. If the profit is 5%, it is impossible to give a 10% discount. A 99% or 92% discount is good.
Especially for merchants who wholesale things, they are not a small number.
The big businessmen inquired about the situation and learned that department stores had opened all over Daming this year, and at least one in the other counties. They began to exchange treasure notes.
They know that there are valuable things in Xiaqiu Village, and behind them is the palace. Endorsed by such a being, they can rest assured holding the treasure banknotes.
They exchange it for dozens or hundreds of guan at a time, and some even brave enough to exchange it for hundreds or thousands of guan for easy portability.
In addition, they were confused when they saw this treasure note. The pattern was so beautiful, with several colors and watermarks inside. If they wanted to fake it, they would not know where to start.
It is different from ordinary paper. When you move your hands, the paper will click. Compared with the Ming Dynasty's treasures, the Yuan Dynasty's treasures are like apprentices and masters. No, the apprentices are not qualified.
In addition, as agreed, starting from February, the court will only collect treasure banknotes for tax collection. If there are no treasure banknotes, they will be exchanged for you on the spot. There will be an extra one cent handling fee, which is one percent. Any less than one penny will be counted as one penny.
The first places to respond were Ningguo Mansion, Taiping Mansion, and Yingtian Mansion.
In the villages in Xuancheng County, I saw that the Xiaqiu Village helped print the treasure banknotes. They exchanged them all. Except for the gold and silver that I kept for jewelry, everything else was exchanged for treasure banknotes.
"Yesterday, another 50,000 guan were released. According to the plan, 1.5 million guan was released in Nanjing. It seems that it will be distributed in one month."
Zhu Yuanzhang did not go to the imperial city in the morning , anyway, after the ministers finished their work in the morning, they brought their families to the village to eat and take pictures.
The chief shook his head, "Not necessarily. It may be exchanged in advance, or it may take longer. It depends on the merchant's acceptance. The use of treasure banknotes should be written into the law.
When the people use it When buying things with treasure money, if those who set up stalls refuse to accept it, they will be arrested, fined, beaten, and imprisoned.
There is no room for bargaining. It is compulsory, so we allow them to take it.Treasure notes were exchanged for copper coins, gold and silver.
Department stores are responsible for the exchange. Copper coins, gold and silver can be exchanged directly for treasure banknotes. There is a handling fee of 1% for exchanging treasure banknotes for gold, silver and copper. Any less than a penny will be counted as a penny. "
The head of the village acted very tough on the issuance of treasure banknotes, because Hanhan is tough and cannot be negotiated.
Zhu Yuanzhang supported "We do not print money casually. If you use real gold and silver as collateral, the treasury will be sealed directly, otherwise the treasure banknotes will not be given. That’s you. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was very helpless. Zhu Yuanzhang recognized the village master, and it was for his own good, so there would be no inflation.
"The next step is the most important. We will issue a banknote with a face value of less than one cent at a loss. Two cents, five cents, cost.
Your Majesty prepared one million coins and released them. The people promised to exchange them. The face value of one penny was still too high.
In many cases, one penny can buy a lot of things. One penny can buy a pound of rice, and one pound can make a lot of popcorn sticks.
No matter how much a stick is worth, others want to eat one or two, two sticks for a dime, twenty sticks for a penny. ”
Li Chang took out the big killer, the small denomination treasure banknotes, according to the commodity prices and purchasing methods of the Ming Dynasty, the people are willing to accept it.
