The boy was curious, but Pei Ji didn't notice it at all.
At this moment, Pei Ji's mind went blank. His ears... no, all his senses only captured one thing.
Banknotes are invalid!
And it is not one or two small states, but a large group of small states.
Pei Ji took a deep breath, his face looked as old as if he had aged ten years in an instant... No, it was definitely more than that, he had aged thirty years in an instant, directly changing from an ordinary old man to an old man who was about to be "blessed".
…
All the banknotes in my hand...are all invalid, God...
The last cry of sadness in Pei Ji's mind only contained three words...
"God……"
"Oh my God!...Oh my God..."
…
As the storm set off in the Southeast Bay, news quickly spread around the Southeast Bay and spread along the strongest tentacles in the world.
It is true that Nannan Diao itself does not have a strong local force, and that is why it has become the place where the five surnames and seven Wangxins are entrenched. However... the whole world is not like this, absolutely not.
Whether it is the two empires that are competing fiercely in secret, or an emerging power like Persia that has reaped the "Cold War dividends", they are all much stronger than the Southeast Asian countries. Or, then again, the Southeast Asian region...
There is not much of an army tradition. In other words, military elites are quite scarce, and naturally they are not in the eyes of the great powers. Of course, the current period is obviously an era of trade, although Li Er secretly operated to shrink the talents and factor resources at hand inward to engage in industrial upgrading.
, but this is a strategy, not a trend, and a human effort rather than God’s will. God is still trade.
Since it is trade, we naturally cannot rule out the possibility of Dongnan Diao suddenly rising in the future, but for now... no matter whether the abolition of banknotes happens or not, the world's major powers don't care. Southeast Diao is just Southeast Diao, nothing more. Compared to
Here...
What the world's most powerful people care about more is the banknote itself. Even... even Li Er is not exempt from carefully observing the changes in the fate of this thing in Southeast Bay.
After all...in the final analysis, the Tang Dynasty is the real birthplace of paper money, and...only the team of monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty are the ones who truly understand the meaning of paper money. This paper money...
After all, it is a tool that can precisely control the intensity of taxation. Precise control means that Datang's financial security can be greatly improved, and... more importantly, Datang is currently engaged in industry and maritime trade.
With this huge amount of income piling up and being reproduced crazily, the economic scale of the entire country is constantly expanding. Under such circumstances... to handle such a large economic scale, the original gold, silver, and copper coin system will definitely not be enough.
Already.
When there is a thousand cents of property to be traded in the market, but the currency is only five cents - what will happen in the market? In fact, it doesn't matter what happens, but it will definitely be bad. At this time, credit is naturally needed
Currency comes in to solve this dilemma.
However... banknotes are a new thing after all. Even though this thing originated in the Tang Dynasty and Li Sheng also wrote magical books such as "Money and Banking", but... in the minds of Li Er and others, after all, they are not so reassured.
Woolen cloth?
What if it happens? Just be afraid of everything. With such a huge thing involved, no one can really deal with it calmly.
After this observation... Li Er also felt quite heavy.
Because...as the emperor of the empire, Li Er is the most well-informed. In many cases, he is even better informed than Wang Jing and others in Southeast Asia, and he has long known the fate of the banknotes issued by the countries in Southeast Asia.
And the banknotes of the southeastern countries were abolished within a few days... Li Er was secretly happy, after all, he was one of the few potential opponents of the Tang Dynasty - even though he was a crotch-pulling opponent who did not know whether to live or die, he could still guess.
What impact will the news of banknote demonetization have...
After all, I have learned the news, and for such a big thing, it is obvious that the maritime merchants in Jiangdong will also learn the news in a few days. I am afraid that...
As Li Er guessed like this... Youdao was afraid of what would happen. Within a few days, the news gradually spread throughout Jiangdong.
News about the issuance of banknotes by Southeast Asian countries!
This banknote... the strange fact that when banknotes were issued, there were still people following suit, this strange fact greatly exceeded the expectations of the merchants of the Tang Dynasty. After all, this banknote was a completely new thing, and most people had no time to avoid it. How could it lead to the Southeast Asian countries?
Did you start it yourself? But...
Then again, Southeast Asia is not the property of any maritime merchant in the Tang Dynasty. The countries in Southeast Asia are not afraid of risks, so they can be regarded as guinea pigs for everyone. Anyway, His Majesty Li Er is also promoting banknotes, and
Looking at that posture, it looks like he wants to spread it all over the world. The road ahead will be unclear in the future. It would be better if there are brave men who are not afraid of death to wade through the muddy waters...
After such observation, many maritime merchants of the Tang Dynasty naturally quickly learned about the situation of the countries in the southeast. Almost all of them became rich quickly after the introduction of banknotes... When the country was rich and the people were prosperous, almost all of them became wealthy.
It corresponds to the Chinese literati’s favorite phrase, “sweet rain falls from the sky”!
When such a miraculous thing happened, the merchants from all walks of life who originally stayed away from this banknote changed their minds almost immediately. Damn it... This was the thought in everyone's mind. There was only one word - Damn it.
He got rich too quickly!
The key is that these small countries in the southeast did nothing but just print money and suddenly became rich.
Such a magical thing was actually happening before our eyes, which was simply not an ordinary excitement. And...for this reason, various maritime merchants continued to intensively arrange manpower to obtain information, and later learned that the banknotes themselves had begun to appreciate significantly.
, purchasing power skyrocketed.
this……
It just makes no sense not to stock up on these wonderful banknotes.
but.
That being said, although Hangzhou and Southeast Island are close to each other, they are still far apart from each other. By the time maritime merchants from all walks of life know the situation and want to send their own ships to Southeast Island to hoard banknotes, that time has already passed.
Quite a few - yes, the Tang Dynasty today has indeed opened up steam engines and even more advanced internal combustion engine ships to maritime merchants.
However, these ships are very expensive. And...
For maritime merchants, things like sea-going ships are considered durable goods and will not be easily consumed...or rather, when a sea-going ship is consumed, the merchants along the way will also be buried in the belly of the fish, so it is still durable.
Supplies. In other words, the ships in the hands of maritime merchants are not mobile phones of later generations, and the frequency of their replacement is not high, while power ships...
