Chapter 560: Beginning
It is obvious that with the decision of paper money, the emperor's idea of patrolling the world had to be put on hold again.
The emperor is a noble man who is forgetful and does not care whether to put it aside. After all, the most important thing is the stability of the country. If the country is stable, you can inspect it at any time in the future.
But in this harem, it is obviously completely different.
The emperor had already released the news, and the harem was already full of controversy because of this news.
The harem, which was already a bit chaotic, was even more lively after the storm came out.
But this inspection of the world has not begun for a long time.
The emperor didn't care, so it was naturally impossible for these concubines and nobles in the harem to ignore it.
Although the princes are still young, the royal children are never measured by age.
Children's innocence lasts for too short and too short, and will be wiped out by the royal rights and interests.
This is almost unstoppable.
The royal family has no affection!
What is the case between brothers, and the same is true between father and son.
Even if the youngest prince is a little director, under the influence of all aspects, he will not have much affection when facing the emperor, but only a strong sense of awe and barrier.
In this case, it is difficult for the emperor to have too much affection for his descendants. On the contrary, the princesses do not have much interest in them, so the emperor has a little more love.
Of course, no matter how much you like it, the emperor's mind is not in the harem.
After all, there are too many children and too many state affairs.
The only concern of the emperor to the harem is the prince's education.
In other words, the emperor has always been invisible to the point of being pure.
In the seventh year of Zhaowu, the implementation of paper money and the implementation of another major strategy have added some cumbersomeness to this already extremely busy state affairs.
However, the only thing that is thankful is that Daheng today does not have so many twists and turns under the rule of the founding emperor, especially now that the central rights are becoming increasingly centralized, it is becoming easier to implement a policy.
Just like this paper currency policy, after this court agreement, Daheng Money Bank presented a complete and data-supported paper currency trial plan.
After discussion in the court, after about three months of coordination among all parties, we checked for omissions and filled in. In mid-July 7th year of Zhaowu, this paper currency strategy, which was destined to have a far-reaching impact, was officially launched in the capital.
According to the plan formulated by the court, the implementation of paper money will be like the Taxation Department. If the pilot is correct, it will be immediately implemented nationwide.
In this regard, compared with the implementation of the tax department, it is obviously much easier to coordinate local interests and fully implement paper money.
After all, the most important thing in the implementation of paper money is circulation, and the existence of Daheng Money House is the greatest reliance.
According to the latest summary statistics of money houses, Daheng Money House has spread throughout every prefecture and county in Daheng. The total number of money houses in Daheng and all over Daheng has reached more than 3,000!
Almost all the money circulation in Daheng Commercial is passed through Daheng Money House.
Today's money shops are not like those in later generations, and they have to pay interest in saving money. Nowadays, money shops are of custody. It is inconvenient for merchants to travel around the country with bulk money. They are afraid of losing it and attracting jealousy. Then they deposit it in the money shop and a thin silver note avoids many problems.
Therefore, nowadays, depositing money in the money house requires storage fees.
The profits paid to the treasury by the money house every year are also an extremely considerable amount.
Such a huge money house is enough to easily promote banknotes across the country.
Of course, the premise of this comprehensive implementation is that the trial of paper money in the capital can be successful.
In fact, once the trial of paper money was launched in the capital, it was endorsed by the Daheng court, but its credibility was two extremes.
According to the expectations of the court, the enthusiastic businessmen were the merchants and merchants who were enthusiastic about paper money, but in fact, most merchants and merchants were extremely wary of paper money.
On the contrary, ordinary people trust paper money quite trust.
Such a contrast is really hard to believe.
When the news reached the emperor's ears, the emperor could not hide his surprise.
After some investigation, the results seemed very obvious.
Merchants and wealthy merchants care about the pros and cons, and they also know the history. They are afraid that the court is harvesting them, so most of them wait and see and resist.
Ordinary people, from the chaotic times of the Ming Dynasty to the current great governance, have made the court establish extremely high majesty in the hearts of the people over the years, with the great strategies that benefit the people, and the name of the emperor has long been the people of the saints in the north and among the lower-level people.
Good or bad are measured in the minds of the people.
In this way, the people almost unconditionally believed in the court, understood the truth, and were rich and powerful, but instead hesitated.
When the investigation results were presented to the emperor's table, the emperor's expression seemed much gloomy.
This situation reminded the emperor of extremely bad things.
Those who give most resources are unreliable at critical moments.
On the contrary, the people who only exerted small favors had unique trust in the court and the emperor.
This is ironic.
But soon, before the emperor could vent his anger, these gentry and merchants seemed to react.
The original wait-and-see approach immediately turned into enthusiasm for paper money.
Obviously, the emperor's layout of business is of great use in many cases.
After no obstacles, the well-crafted and exquisitely patterned paper money seemed to be lightning-proof, and in less than a month, it became the mainstream of currency in the capital.
And with the exchange of trade between the north and south of the capital, it slowly spread out of the capital.
But this spread was extremely slow, and it was obvious that as the main body of circulation, merchants and gentry still retained the caution they should have about paper money.
After all, in the past dynasties, there seems to be no banknotes that can end well.
The most important thing is that paper money is just a piece of paper, and there is no real money and silver that makes people feel at ease.
Therefore, the existence of paper money only depends on circulation. If you deposit the silver, it is still depositing the silver. Few people will exchange their own property for paper money to deposit it.
All phenomena are summarized through statistical summary by various functional departments of the court, as well as money shops and merchants, and on the table of the emperor.
The court discussions are all for the further passage of paper money.
The emperor was not in a hurry to make paper money mainstream all at once and prohibited gold, silver and copper from becoming the circulation of currency.
The implementation of paper money must be a subtle process.
This process will inevitably last for a long time.
The paper currency was piloted in the capital for about two months. In October of the seventh year of Zhaowu, everything was completed after the court summed up and discussed it correctly. With the emperor's will, the full implementation of paper currency was completely started...
