"It is precisely because of the vast territory of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty that they used their armies and caravans to harvest all the wool in the world."
"With the backing of these ubiquitous and powerful military forces, Mongolian businessmen can go do business anywhere without worrying about being threatened or harmed."
"The two complemented each other. Strong military power brought prosperous commercial development, and the wealth of the world was concentrated in the hands of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties."
"It is precisely because of this that the people in power in the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties have countless gold and silver treasures in their hands, which can be used to exchange for the banknotes they print and issue at any time."
"To sum up, military power, commercial operations, real gold and silver, and the printing and issuance of banknotes are all indispensable. This is the core reason why the banknotes issued by the Tatar emperor will not depreciate and have remained strong until now."
"Ask yourselves, can our Ming Dynasty achieve this step now?"
When Zhu Ying said this, she paused and glanced at everyone present.
In fact, the Yuanbao banknotes issued by the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty are the same as the so-called Bretton Woods system of the most powerful country in the 21st century. Relying on its own strong military power and large reserves of real gold and silver, it allows
The banknotes you print and issue become hard currency around the world.
"this......"
"Our Ming Dynasty really can't do this."
After thinking for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and admitted this fact.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang was an extremely conceited person, he had to admit that the Ming Dynasty was indeed inferior to the huge Mongol Empire when faced with reality.
At this time, the territory of the Ming Dynasty was only one more than that of the Northern Song Dynasty, with one more Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures and the Hexi Corridor.
During the Han and Tang dynasties, the Western Regions and Beiting were still in the hands of the Han people, but they had not been recovered at this time and were still in the hands of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
And looking at the territory of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, it ranged from East Asia to North Asia, then to Central Asia and West Asia, and even spanned into Eastern Europe.
Although the Tatars were defeated at the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, before leaving, they brought a large amount of the wealth they had collected in the Central Plains over the past century back to Mobei. Even though it had been more than ten years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the valuables of the imperial court were still missing.
It's very few.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang even wanted to refine those Buddha statues several times and use them to mint copper coins.
"According to what you say, Ming Dynasty can't solve the inflation problem you mentioned?"
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.
The rest of the people also looked melancholy.
The greatest advantage of the Ming Dynasty during the Hongwu period, whether it was Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang or the civil and military officials, compared to the people in the late Ming Dynasty, was that they could face up to their own shortcomings.
If it’s not as good as it is, it’s not as good as it is, and seek truth from facts.
"It's not like there's nothing we can do."
Zhu Ying looked at the group of people and said slowly.
"Is there a way? Then tell me quickly!"
"You're not bragging, are you?"
"Is there a way to do this?"
...
Seeing Zhu Ying saying there was a way, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up and they couldn't help but urge.
What has the emperor's eldest grandson experienced outside these years?
It’s so powerful!
Our Ming Dynasty is saved!
"What are you talking about? Look at what time it is. It's almost dark. I've been talking for a long time and my mouth is dry. Let's talk some other time!"
Zhu Ying rolled her eyes, looked at the sky, and immediately ordered her to be kicked out.
"It's dark as long as it's dark, my God, it won't be dark?"
"That's right, we can survive it!"
"If you don't have candles here, I'll have someone send you a box of candles!"
"If you don't finish talking today, I will lose sleep today!"
...
Seeing that Zhu Ying was unwilling to continue talking, several people suddenly became anxious.
But Zhu Ying has made up her mind.
Whether you have insomnia or not is none of my business?
Do you still want to spend the night at my place?
Do you want me to sleep with you bad old men?
Let me tell you, it’s impossible!
There are no doors!
This young man will only sleep with girls!
Seeing that Zhu Ying was unmoved, everyone had no choice but to leave Zhu Ying's manor with a sigh.
Seeing the melancholy look on Lao Zhu's face, Zhu Ying was so kind-hearted that before leaving, he took some lollipops and gave them to Zhu Yuanzhang as compensation, asking him to go back and coax his grandson.
And I don’t forget to remind you that there are only so many of these and they will be gone after you finish eating them.
Seeing Zhu Ying bring out such a rare object, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression improved a little.
...
After Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the palace, he immediately called Jiang Wei and asked him to take the Jin Yiwei to quickly inquire about the prices in the market.
After receiving the information, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly discovered that the Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes had devalued by 10%. They could have been exchanged for copper coins, but now they could only be exchanged for 900 copper coins.
Less than a month has passed since the Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes were issued.
In just one month, the Ming Dynasty treasure money shrank by 10%!
If we continue to print and distribute it like this in the future, won’t what the little brat said come true?
By then, I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty treasure banknote will really become a piece of waste paper, which will be too hard to wipe someone's butt.
At that point, the world will be in chaos and the people will rise up!
This incident has such great influence that it has even shaken the country!
It's just that that little brat obviously has a solution, but he doesn't want to tell it!
We really want to give that little bastard a good beating!
Although Zhu Yuanzhang had a very good temper when facing Zhu Ying, in fact Zhu Yuanzhang's temper was very violent.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was angry, the people around him, whether they were palace maids, eunuchs, or civil and military officials, would turn pale and tremble with fear.
"Chongba, what's wrong?"
Queen Ma looked at the livid Zhu Yuanzhang and couldn't help asking with concern.
When the palace maid heard that Zhu Yuanzhang was angry, Empress Ma was afraid that he would anger innocent people, so she hurried to Zhu Yuanzhang's side.
"You're not that little brat Zhu Ying!" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.
"Master Zhu, what's wrong with you?"
Queen Ma patted Zhu Yuanzhang on the back and asked with a smile while comforting him.
In Queen Ma's heart, she already regarded Zhu Ying as her grandson. After all, she had just saved Zhu Biao and then saved her, even though Zhu Ying was originally her grandson.
"Sister Xiuying, you don't know how annoying that little brat is..."
Zhu Yuanzhang angrily told Queen Ma everything about what happened to Zhu Ying.
"We treat him well, that little brat obviously has a solution, but he doesn't want to tell us!"
"Forget it, what's wrong with our Ming Dynasty?"
"That little bastard actually wants to go to a place like Nanyang where birds don't shit!"
"That little bastard, if it weren't for us..."
At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized that he had almost spilled the beans and quickly stopped talking.
Empress Ma didn't doubt that he was there, she just smiled lightly and comforted him.
