Chapter 866 Money shortage is coming

Copper coins are in short supply, and the shops operating here cannot receive much copper coins.

I heard that all the major merchants in the capital are now hoarding copper coins crazily.

Even the common people were unwilling to take out what they had in their hands.

Would rather start exchanging items for things.

Although silver can also be used, copper coins are still the main currency among the people.

Just when Duke Dingguo was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, Lu Yunluo sent someone to deliver thirty-carrying boxes.

Thirty boxes of copper coins.

It should be enough for my grandfather to support him for a while.

Duke Dingguo looked at the boxes piled up in the yard. Although he was filled with joy, the copper coins were so tight now that the World Agricultural and Commercial Association under Luo'er would also have to spend money.

What should she do if she is no longer enough?

Therefore, Duke Dingguo only kept two boxes of copper coins, and the rest was returned.

When Lu Yunluo learned about it, she immediately couldn't laugh or cry.

It seems that my grandfather has no idea how much copper coins the Tianxia Rural Chamber of Commerce has accumulated over the years.

Lu Yunluo looked at the pile of copper coins in more than a dozen large warehouses, and suddenly felt the same feeling as Lan'er had when she was worried that there was no place to put the gold.

In the five years since she left, although all the money earned by the Tianxia Rural and Commercial Association has been deposited in the bank, almost all of the copper coins earned have been backlogged in the warehouse due to the trouble of counting and inconvenience of carrying.

And where large sums of money are spent, almost all money is spent in silver.

This is true for the Tianxia Rural and Commercial Association, let alone other merchant houses.

A large number of copper coins are piled up in the hands of businessmen and wealthy people and cannot be circulated on the market. Can this copper coin not be stressful?

Furthermore, Donglan Country's economy has been developing rapidly over the years.

However, the speed at which the imperial court issued copper coins could not keep up with the speed of economic development.

In addition to being able to mint coins, copper coins can also be used to mint various daily necessities. It is not surprising that there is a money shortage due to various comprehensive factors.

And as far as she knew, the copper mines in Donglan Country were not rich.

"Miss Lu, what should we do now?"

Ye Wenqiong looked worried.

Although she didn't quite understand the final impact of this incident, she knew that the World Rural Chamber of Commerce would definitely be in a huge crisis because of this incident.

Lu Yunluo turned around and said, "Get ready and follow me into the palace!"

Ye Wenqiong frowned and looked at Lu Yunluo, entering the palace?

Lu Yunluo glanced at Sister Ye, "You don't think that we can solve this matter with our strength alone, do you?"

If the imperial court does not take action in this matter, no one can do anything about it.

Thinking that she had just decided to draw a clear line with Ji Wujue a few days ago and never have any contact with each other until death, she didn't expect that she would go back on her promise so quickly.

When the money shortage comes, no one can stay out of it!

Without access to department stores, thousands of merchants are at a loss.

If it is not resolved as soon as possible, it will cause immeasurable damage to Donglan Country’s economic development and civilian commodity exchange!

In the middle of the court, they are also worried about the money shortage these days.

Some people advocate that money and silk should be used in parallel, and small amounts of money should be used while large amounts of materials should be used. In this way, the demand for copper coins among the people can be alleviated to the greatest extent.

Some people even advocate the abolition of coins, replacing them with grain and silk, or returning to the barter method. The reason is that money is the most evil, which not only exacerbates the gap between the rich and the poor, but also hinders agricultural production.

It is believed that as long as the currency policy is abolished, many businessmen will abandon business and return to farming. If things go on like this, agricultural output will inevitably increase sharply, which is the right way.

Of course, there are also those who advocate increasing copper mining and casting, so that the imperial court can increase the output of copper coins to the greatest extent.

The three parties argued extremely fiercely, with faces red and saliva flying, each holding his own opinion.

Wang Xingzhi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, felt that if it were not for the fact that this was a court, these people would definitely fight.

He suddenly missed the days when Queen Lu was here.

At that time, if there were any problems in the court, just ask her, and she would definitely be able to give a perfect solution beyond everyone's imagination.

It's a pity that now, she is no longer the queen of Donglan Kingdom.

I wonder how she would solve this difficult matter if she were here?

Sitting on the dragon chair, Ji Wujue's expression was very indifferent from beginning to end. His face turned red as he watched the people below him argue, and the fingertips of his right hand tapped lightly on the table.

His dark eyes glanced at Wang Xingzhi, who had been silent all this time, and his voice suddenly sounded, "Mr. Wang, I wonder what your opinion is on this matter?"

Everyone in the hall who was arguing a moment ago suddenly fell silent.

Wang Xingzhi took a step forward respectfully and said, "Back to the emperor, the subordinates dare not say anything."

Ji Wujue raised his eyebrows slightly, "Let me spare you the guilt!"

Wang Xingzhi looked embarrassed. When the emperor speaks, he should stick to his word, right?

He thought for a while, forget it, for the sake of the people and the court, he would risk it all!

"Back to the emperor, I think that Miss Lu should be admitted to the palace. Although she is no longer the queen of Donglan Kingdom, her ability to govern the country is unmatched by all the officials here."

"The water supply system now commonly used in Donglan Country has solved the problem of Chinese Pinyin that countless people cannot read, as well as movable type printing, Donglan Daily, etc., each of which can be regarded as an astonishing talent!"

"This money shortage crisis, I think she will definitely be able to come up with a perfect solution. The emperor asked Wei Chen what he thought, and Wei Chen wanted to hear Miss Lu's thoughts."

When Wang Xingzhi spoke, he clearly felt the pressure gradually coming from above, but even so, he gritted his teeth and finished.

As we all know.

Since the emperor was divorced by the empress, Lu Yunluo's name cannot appear in the court.

Hearing Wang Xingzhi's bold remarks, everyone was sweating for him.

Although Mr. Wang told the truth, everyone knew that Empress Lu divorced the emperor.

Now, faced with a money shortage, the emperor had to turn to his former wife for help.

Doesn't this tell the world that he is not as good as the former Empress Lu?

Does Mr. Wang think that the hat on his head is too stable?

"Nonsense! This Lu Yunluo is no longer the queen of the Donglan Kingdom. She is just a commoner's daughter. How can we listen to her opinions? Sir Wang, how do you put the royal family's face with your remarks like this?"

Someone immediately jumped out and pointed at Wang Xingzhi and yelled.

Wang Xingzhi naturally understood that what he said was indeed inappropriate, and immediately knelt down in front of Ji Wujue, "The humble minister made a mistake, and the emperor will atone for his sin!"

Just when everyone thought Ji Wujue would be angry, they heard him say calmly, "What Mr. Wang said is absolutely true. Lu Yunluo is indeed a rare talent for governing the country. Such a genius has not been reused by the imperial court.

, I was indeed negligent."

"Come here and pass on my decree to make the citizen girl Lu Yunluo the minister of law!"

A silent and cold voice floated in the sky above the hall.

"I am busy farming in the cold palace"
