Daqin: Reign in the world

Li Guang nodded.

“Well, Emperor Shengming, didn’t let our Li family be wronged. But we have to be careful ourselves. Dad, just say, how to adjust this time? ”

Li Xin has been pondering this for a long time, and he has listed all the places that come to mind on a piece of paper.

At this point, he took out the paper.

“Guang’er, look, last time someone impeached me. The first caused the outflow of Daqin copper money. I pondered it carefully, and if the outflow of copper money was banned, it didn’t seem to be good. ”

“There is a second article, saying that I do not review the salt citation of salt merchants in the Western Regions. If they all go back to issue salt leads, the big green salt will immediately cut off the supply. We are not afraid to stock up, but there are many things that must be stopped because of this. The impact on Zhangye Market was too great. ”

Li Guang looked at it carefully and said to his father.

“This matter of salt introduction is easy to handle, we will not sell it in bulk in the future, and designate a large salt merchant of the Yue family to resell it.” Just let the King of the Moon Clan open the salt. ”

“As for the outflow of copper money, it’s a bit troublesome. After the outflow of copper money, it is actually a good thing for us to buy and sell goods in Zhangye. ”

Father and son are struggling there.

Suddenly, the herald came to the door.

“Report ~~~~ Hube Shilang, Director of the Gold and Silver Department Zhang Cang asked to see him.”

When Li Xin heard this report, he was overjoyed.

Quickly got up and personally welcomed out. Li Guang followed.

Zhang Cang came, and the outflow of copper money was all counting on him. This is his area of responsibility.

Li Xin’s father and son enthusiastically welcomed Zhang Cang into the house.

Zhang Cang said as soon as he came.

“Your Majesty knows that you are embarrassed, and specially sent me.”

Li Xin heard that it was actually the emperor who guessed his difficulty and specially sent Zhang Cang to help him solve it. Tears of excitement welled up in my eyes.

Li Guang also admired the emperor’s state of knowing everything in his chest.

What Li Xin is most concerned about is how to solve the outflow of copper money?

The difference in methods determines how Zhangye should cooperate?

Only with good cooperation can Zhangye’s trade heat go to a higher level.

“Master Zhang, just now I was still talking with Guang’er about the outflow of copper money, what can you do?”

Zhang Cang smiled slightly, arched his hand towards the sky and said.

“It’s not that I have a way, it’s the emperor who taught me a way. The emperor asked me to bring a group of craftsmen to mine copper in Zhangye. Then mint copper coins on the spot! ”

Mint money!

This method can be said to be poking into Li Xin’s heart.

In fact, it was the emperor who encouraged the exchange of copper money for gold in the Western Regions.

It was originally something that was beneficial to Daqin, of course, it had to be done.

Previously, because the speed of copper money flowing out was too fast, Daqin only had a coin-casting workshop in Xianyang, and the speed of supply could not keep up. Therefore, it led to a shortage of copper coins within Daqin, and the purchasing power of copper coins was extremely high.

Some time ago, the emperor had approved the opening of a coin-casting workshop in Moling.

Now another one is opening in Zhangye.

Presumably, the speed of minting money can keep up with demand.

The principle of this matter, Zhang Cang also asked the emperor for advice. No one else in the DPRK understands the principle.

Daqin’s commerce became increasingly active, and the demand for copper money grew rapidly.

Even if there is no outflow of copper money, the purchasing power of copper money will continue to rise.

The only way is to mine more copper and mint more money.

A steady stream of copper coins were minted, and then exchanged for the application of Daqin from the countries of the Western Regions. Why not?

Zhang Cang explained the reason for this to Li Xin in detail.
