Bring The System To Datang

Abe Nakamaro pondered: "You mean burning lime?"

"Exactly, to sterilize." Takaki Junichiro gestured.

"Go back and try. Burning lime is available in our country. Why is it called quicklime?" Abe Nakamaro is not very accustomed to the question.

"Because it can also become mature lime, it overlaps in some aspects and has different uses in some aspects." Junichiro Takaki learned a lot from the newspaper.

"I wonder if I can learn how to make an exchange voucher and use it to print money back." Abe Nakamaro knew what an exchange voucher was.

Called exchange coupons in name, they are actually currency.

What he worries most is that the people are unwilling to use copper coins, and there are many small countries in the country that are entrusted out.

In some places, copper is not produced, and Pingchengjing casts copper coins. The people elsewhere decide that copper coins are useless.

Saying how much things are worth is not as good as seeing for yourself.

I know how many rice or cloth can be exchanged for ten eggs.

Ten eggs were exchanged for a few copper coins, what should I do if I can't buy those rice and cloth with copper coins?

The things that I bought are what I need, I don’t need copper, and I can’t eat or wear copper.

Then I thought of a way to allow people with officials to use money for promotion.

Officials save money on their own. It must be copper money, and donate a lump sum to different officials according to the amount.

Those who do not have an official donate five thousand copper coins to an official.

Officials pay salaries and also use copper coins to pay for things.

However, it can only circulate in Pyeongseong-kyo and Gyeonggi-do, and people outside still don’t want it.

Abe Nakamaro and others can't figure it out, because of what? People in Datang like to use copper coins, and some make evil money.

Change to own country, what's the difference?

With a lot of doubts, everyone continued to visit the East Market.

Feel the prosperity of Datang, and envy the life of the people of Datang Jingzhao Mansion.

There are so many things on the market, it can be described as a dazzling array.

The common people are paying for money, looking for money, even blind people use exchange vouchers to buy things.

There are blind spots on the voucher, which is added according to the method of making watermarks. The blind spots of money of different denominations are different.

According to the feel and size of the exchange voucher, as long as it is newer, the blind can tell the difference.

As for the specific purchase, there is no need for blind people to distinguish, and there are enthusiastic people nearby to help.

When sellers meet blind people, not only do they dare not give bad ones, but they have to choose good ones, and give them a little bit more for fear that someone will report to the officials.

"This Dage, the stall owner is good, and I will give you two more meat." The Japanese envoy looked at someone helping the blind to buy things.

The money given by two dollars is also the weight, and one tael of ten dollars is not the face value of two coins of copper coins.

"Hey, hehe!" The blind man carefully took the money he found, picked up the meat, and left with a stick.

Immediately, a kindhearted person followed and helped this 30-year-old man walk home.

The Japanese envoy sighed with emotion at the folk customs of Datang Jingzhao Mansion. When Xia Dao Zhenbei saw the fried rice noodles, he took out two copper coins from his sleeves.

He walked over and handed the copper coin: "Bring me a roll."

The stall owner looked at the money he took and carefully distinguished: "I don't sell it, I don't know it."

"My Japanese money is the same as Datang Kaiyuan Tongbao." Xia Dao Zhenbei motioned to the other party to look.

The stall owner shook his head: "Don't do that, it doesn't feel like Kaiyuan Tongbao is heavy."

"I'll add one dollar, and three dollars will make two. I'm a Japanese envoy." The Xia Dao was really depressed, and made up another coin.

"Japanese envoys can't buy things for less, unless you are Li Dongzhu, I will give it away for free." The stall owner said and weighed a few times when he received his hand.

Nodding: "I sold you, so you are all Japanese envoys."

After speaking, he put away the money and motioned to the woman next to him to wrap a roll of fringed paper for the next real spare.

The woman carefully chose a choice, and she found one that looked relatively large, but actually weighed the weight of the noodles and handed it to the next real preparation.

The next Dao is really in a good mood, this looks big.

He broke one off and bit it in his mouth early, it was crispy.

Fujiwara Mayang next to him squeezed one out: "I really envy them that they can spend their money anywhere."

"Li Yi is resourceful and resourceful, perhaps knowing the reason, can solve our domestic worries." Gao Shu Junichiro thought of a way.

It is said that the prime minister would go to Lijiazhuang for advice when he encountered difficulties. The students from Lijiazhuang did a good job in the county and village.

Explain that the master has the ability, ask own why the copper coins can not be circulated in Japan, Li Yi can give an idea?

...

Bi Gou was already asking Junichiro Takaki. The Japanese envoys entered the Tang Dynasty. In addition to paying tribute, there were also a large number of Japanese products.

Including silver, silver was used in manufacturing and co-kailing, but it was cancelled because of the lack of silver.

Datang has less silver than gold, and no major mines have been found.

Silver is a luxury item in Datang, used to make bronze mirrors and jewelry.

A bronze mirror with a little silver added is similar to a glass mirror, but it is easy to wipe off the silver.

"Do you want to collect their taxes?" Bi Gou carefully stood at the door of a workshop, watching Li Yi operate it.

Li Yi is making litmus test paper, and now it is a critical step, so no one is allowed to disturb.

After Bi Gou finished speaking, Li Yi turned his head and glared at him, and Bi Gou hurriedly shut up.

"I have sulfuric acid and caustic soda here. If something goes wrong, it will be over. Wait for me."

Li Yi continued the operation. The red test paper with sulfuric acid was used to test alkali; the second one added caustic soda to test acid.

People always use experience to see that the pH of the soil will make mistakes. Li Yi took the time to collect litmus. After two days of processing, today the finished product is produced.

It's ready to use when it's dry, but it needs a comparison, and he has to grade it himself.

In half an hour, the learning craftsmen understood.

Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief, stepped out, and let the craftsmen make a large amount of it.

Litmus is now a medicine, it is easier to find, it is not valuable, and a child can pick a lot with a small shovel.

"With the test paper, the people have more choices when farming. They can easily know what their own land is, what needs to be added to neutralize it, or what kind of crop to grow."

Li Yi has a small bamboo piece in his hand, and two litmus papers are placed on it.

"Chemistry, right?" Bi Gou didn't understand the principle at all, he only knew that this knowledge was not trivial.

"Yes, and if I don't say it, there will be no man made out for hundreds of years."

Li Yisi is not modest, he didn't intend to teach the litmus paper to outsiders.

He would sell test papers and comparison tables for the court to buy.

"Do you want to give it to the people?" When Bi Gou heard that it had something to do with farming, he thought that Li Yisong.

"The court pays a pack of 100 packs, plus two comparison tables. In case one is lost or broken, there is a backup.

The government took it and distributed it to the people. The people went to see their own fields, and then took the form to find the yamen for comparison.

A pack of twenty dollars, if there is no need to compare the table in the future, nineteen dollars, are you optimistic about it? "

Li Yi is ready to sell money and farming is the responsibility of the imperial court.

"No, how much do you cost?" Bi Gou refused. He thought it would suffer a loss if he bought it.

"Old Bi, don't always think about the cost of materials, don't you consider the cost of technology? I save money, and after hundreds of thousands of attempts, invented..."

"I don't believe it, you should have done it straight away, and you will fail once or twice at most." Bi Gou still refused.
