Jia Ping'an arrived at Da Ci'en Temple.

"How about a mage?"

Since the last time he went to Yanshi with the guardian of the master, the attitude of the monks here towards him has changed a lot.

The Zhike monk smiled amiably, "Master's health has improved a lot."

Jia Ping'an was overjoyed.

Xuanzang is translating scriptures.

"Master, Zhao Guogong is asking to see you."

The old monk raised his head, Xuanzang smiled and said, "Why is he here?"

The old monk said with a straight face, "Master, it's time to rest."

Xuanzang got up, "Alright. But you scolded him last time."

The old monk still had a straight face, "The weather is fine today."

Xuanzang walked out of the room and glanced at the sky.

The sky was gray, with a bleak feeling of late autumn. A few fallen leaves swirled by the wind in the corner, revealing the still green moss underneath.

"Mage."

When Jia Pingan came, seeing that Xuanzang looked a lot better than when we parted last time, he said happily, "Master, is he in good health?"

Xuanzang said with a smile: "After returning, the poor monk slept better and the food tasted better."

He looked at Jia Pingan, "Is there something wrong?"

Jia Ping shook his head.

Xuanzang looked at him, "I have encountered a difficult situation."

"Master, how do you see it?"

Jia Ping'an was no longer Amon under Wu, and his emotions and anger were invisible, but Xuanzang could see it.

This... Could it be supernatural powers?

Xuanzang smiled, "When people's hearts are extremely quiet, the five senses will be extremely sharp. You can tell what your mood is just by looking at you. This is not a magical power. Everyone can do it, but everyone doesn't want to do it. "

"The human body is a treasure, but the key to the treasure is not in desire."

"You have roots of wisdom."

without!

Jia Pingan quickly slipped away.

Xuanzang said slowly behind him: "If the heart is upright, all evils will not invade, and if you are selfless, you will have no fear."

Jia Pingan turned around, "Thank you for the teaching, Master."

Xuanzang nodded and watched him go away.

The old monk came over, "There are flies and dogs in the world of mortals, and we and other outsiders should interfere."

This is good advice.

Xuanzang said calmly: "Since we are born as human beings, we have to eat and drink Lazard, and when we eat Falasar, we will think about it. Once we think about it, we will have likes and dislikes, and the heart will be restless. Who can escape? No one. There is no need to regard the world of mortals as a scourge. There is no need to regard Fang Wai as a piece of pure land. There is no pure land in this world."

...

Jia Pingan went to the workshop.

"The original silver coins were bigger and shrunk."

The craftsmen were puzzled, and one of them asked, "Mr. Zhao, how small is it?"

"One hundred coins."

Jia Pingan knew why he made a mistake... He forgot the social reality of the moment when designing silver coins.

"Those aristocratic families, powerful officials are naturally not short of 700 Wen, and the common people have 700 Wen that they don't need?"

A craftsman smiled wryly, "At that time, the old man thought it was just for the nobles."

"It is my fault."

Fortunately, the old bustard woke him up with a word.

...

"North Korea and China are making silver coins."

The decoration of the room is very simple, just three desks, not even a bookcase.

Cui Chen sat on the left, opposite Lu Shunyi's second brother Lu Shunzai, and Wang Shun sitting in front.

Wang Shun's complexion is fair, and his gestures are elegant. "Dou Dexuan from the Ministry of Household Affairs proposed to send some silver to the imperial court, and combine it with the 10,000 taels of silver from the Wa country to make silver coins. Fifty thousand pieces."

He looked at Cui Chen, "What did Cui Jian say?"

Cui Chen smiled wryly, "That little bastard has been withdrawn since he was a child, if the old man pushes him too much... I'm afraid he won't have the face to see his brother in the future."

Lu Shunzai chuckled, "Master Cui should have given him full support earlier, so he wouldn't almost turn against him now."

Cui Chen's face was slightly cold, "Who said that the aristocratic family needs someone in the official department? So much so that Sanlang couldn't move after suffering in the official department for many years."

Lu Shunzai said calmly: "But Mrs. Cui didn't talk to Cui Jian!"

"Is Mrs. Lu willing to abandon his official position for the sake of the gentry?"

Cui Chen retorted.

"alright."

Wang Shun said dissatisfied: "The business is important."

Lu Shunzai said: "It's fine to just ignore the silver coins."

Cui Chen shook his head, "That's what you said, what did you think of when the silver mountain of the Japanese country brought silver continuously?"

Lu Shunzai frowned and thought for a while, "What can I have? The silver coins are just for sale."

"cloth!"

Wang Shun said quietly: "How much cloth can my family produce every year? There are more and more silver coins. How can spiced cloth be used as money?"

Lu Shunzai was startled, "If that's the case, the cloth hidden in your house and mine will probably lose value."

The three were silent.

"I don't know the details of the silver mine in the country of Japan, but they dare to mint coins, which means that the silver mine production is not small..."

Wang Shun raised his eyes, his eyes were calm, "I sold the cloth at a low price."

Cui Chen smiled wryly, "Who will buy it?"

"Sell at a reduced price." Lu Shunzai looked fiercely, "Sell before the price goes down!"

...

"Your Majesty, the silver from the Yinshan Mountain will be sent in a steady stream, so I thought of something else."

Jia Pingan pulled Dou Dexuan into the palace together.

"There are more and more silver coins, but cloth is still being circulated as money. I am wondering whether the cloth can be exchanged for money and grain to pay...or even...reduce or exempt."

Datang taxes are divided into rent and adjustment, which is a tax system implemented on the basis that everyone has land. If you have people, then there are fields. Later generations calculate that it is almost one forty tax, which can be called a rare light tax.

However, the production efficiency of this era is impressive, and even the poorly taxed people still have a difficult life.

"Reduction adjustment?"

The emperor was startled, and Dou Dexuan was about to lose his temper.

"Do you know how much money is collected every year? Exempt, how will you support the army? How will you support the officials? Where will the money and food come from for the construction of water conservancy? The Tang Dynasty spends money everywhere, where will the money and food come from?"

Jia Pingan said: "Now 200,000 people are working in Yinshan, using the best ash blowing method. When I left Yinshan, the craftsmen promised that at least 200,000 taels of silver would be sent to Chang'an this year, and next year... next year Say less than 400,000 taels! The next year will not be less than 500,000 taels..."

Dou Dexuan's cheeks were trembling.

old man...

old man...

"Mr. Dou, hold on tight!"

The Shangshu of the Household Department of the Tang Dynasty fell in the hall, which is not a good thing.

Li Zhi: "..."

Empress Wu: "..."

Wang Zhongliang stood there dumbly.

What is the current annual output of silver in Datang?

If there are tens of thousands of taels, he will be very happy. Dou Dexuan can jump three feet high on the spot.

But Yinshan can send 200,000 taels this year, and next year...the year after...

Jia Pingan said: "Five years later, Yinshan's annual output will not be less than one million taels."

"Aw!"

Dou Dexuan let out a low howl, and his body went limp.

Jia Pingan quickly supported him, "Mr. Dou! Mr. Dou!"

Only then did the empress wake up.

"Two hundred thousand taels!"

"No, one million taels!"

The couple were already dumbfounded.

Jia Pingan is pinching someone.

"Aw!"

Dou Dexuan was awakened by the pain, the first thing he did was to grab Jia Ping'an's skirt and said fiercely: "What if there is no million taels?"

Jia Pingan said lightly: "If not, I will go to Yinshan to stay for five years!"

That place is a barren land, squatting for five years would be worse than death for people like Jia Ping'an.

"One million taels?"

Dou Dexuan panted, "God... If there are a million taels, what's the difference? It's not short of money, and Datang is not short of money!"

After Iwami Ginzan entered its peak period, its annual output was more than one million taels.

At this moment, labor doesn't cost money, it just gives some food, and by the way, there is no need to worry about labor being poisoned by the accompanying things.

Just keep it straight!

Jia Ping'an is already very conservative.

The emperor said in a deep voice, "Do you know the consequences of lying?"

Jia Ping'an mentioned Yinshan several times, and he talked about it in a hype, but this is the first time that he has seriously predicted the annual output.

One million taels!

This shocking number!

We must know that the current domestic market in the Tang Dynasty is far inferior to that in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. If a million taels of silver enters this market, there will be big waves in an instant.

"Using cloth as money is a helpless move." Dou Dexuan panted, "The cloth is constantly circulating, and it will continue to decay and become worthless in the end. If there are millions of taels of silver every year, the cloth should be used where it should be used." , make clothes."

"In this way, the price of cloth will fall."

Jia Ping'an was also quite surprised by the emperor's keenness.

"What will those people do when they hear the news?" Jia Pingan said with a conspiracy theory on his face, "sell the cloth."

There have been too many such business wars in later generations. Jia Pingan, who has been in business for more than ten years, had this first reaction.

"The aristocratic family has hoarded a large amount of silk cloth and produces a lot every year. If the cloth falls, they will suffer the heaviest loss." Dou Dexuan smiled darkly.

The Dou family was famous for their bravery in the early days, but after Dou Wei came out, they turned around and went the way of civil servants.

"How are the people?"

Li Zhi frowned slightly, "The people don't have a lot of cloth in their hands."

Jia Pingan smiled, "Your Majesty, the people don't have much money in their hands, mostly copper coins. They don't have much cloth, save it for tax payment..."

Wu Mei said: "Those rich people have a lot of cloth, and they store it as coins. The people are different. They use it to pay taxes. If the price of cloth drops, the people can buy more and go home to make clothes."

Dou Dexuan said with a smile: "The rich do their best to benefit the common people."

"When they know the news, they will definitely take action." Jia Pingan analyzed: "I thought they would sell it."

"What will happen if you sell it...?"

Emperors are not economists.

Jia Pingan said: "The market will be chaotic at first, and those cloth merchants will lose a lot."

"You are good at business." Wu Mei pushed him out without hesitation, "Your Majesty, let Ping An handle this matter."

The emperor nodded.

Dou Dexuan grinned from ear to ear, "Xiao Jia, I heard that you went to Pingkangfang? Turn around and invite you."

The Empress didn't respond.

One million taels.

I have never seen so much money!

Later, I rode out of the imperial city and went straight to the east.

Jia Pingan and Dou Dexuan leave the palace.

Dou Dexuan said earnestly: "It doesn't matter if those people lose some money, but the market cannot be disrupted. If someone uses this to disrupt the market, those cloth merchants will suffer heavy losses... Do you understand?"

Jia Pingan said: "The loss in the eyes of those people is the job of those businessmen."

Dou Dexuan said approvingly: "This old man thinks you can be the Secretary of the Household Department."

Jia Pingan laughed it off.

"This matter requires the cooperation of the Ministry of Household Affairs." Jia Ping'an hinted.

Dou Dexuan said: "How to cooperate?"

"The Ministry of Households has a warehouse in the market, and there are a lot of grain and cloth. I need to mobilize those cloth."

Dou Dexuan nodded.

Jia Ping arrived in Dongshi.

There are the most cloth merchants here.

"Let the cloth merchants from the West Market also come."

Hundreds of businessmen gathered together, forming a crowded scene.

"What does this mean?"

These people are a little puzzled.

The only sober businessmen were worried.

"Once the silver coins come out, the price of cloth may not be stable."

Jia Pingan said: "You should have heard about the silver coins. That's right, the court is minting silver coins. With the increase of silver coins, it is a bit out of date for cloth to be used as coins..."

There was commotion below, and someone shouted: "Mr. Zhao, if this is the case, wouldn't we be going bankrupt?"

"If you wait to continue the commotion, there is a danger."

Jia Pingan said, and then the merchants quieted down.

"Steady." Jia Pingan said: "No matter what happens next, you just sit and wait, but the Ministry of Finance needs to borrow you to wait..."

The silent merchants watched him.

Jia Pingan said: "There is no such thing as good or bad, but people call themselves!"

He is very busy.

He went to Baiqi first.

"How about the Tocharians?"

Ming Jing threw away the shopping cart, "They want to buy some goods in Datang, but they want to ask Anxi to escort them to Dashi."

"Is there any risk in Dashi?" Jia Pingan frowned.

Shen Qiu stood outside the door, turned back and said: "Da Shi is constantly expanding now. In the fifth year of Yonghui, Da Shi broke through Persia, killed the Persian king Yi Sihou, and Prince Belus fled to Tocharian. Tocharo sent troops to send Belus back to Persia, and made him king... Thus, Tocharo became enmity with Dashi."

Tut tut!

Persia was so beaten by Dashi that he had no power to fight back.

"The Tocharian merchants have been cut off by Dashi." Ming Jing said gloatingly, "They came to Datang to use the goods that Dashi urgently needs to open up trade routes, but why give them?"

"What do they want?" Jia Pingan asked.

Ming Jing glanced at the shopping cart, "I want a lot, I even want to sell weapons."

Shen Qiu glanced at her, "That's wishful thinking."

As long as there is enough profit, the merchant dares to sell the rope to hang himself.

"Call them."

More than a dozen Tocharian merchants arrived at Baiqi and met a kind and amiable Zhao Guogong.

"Is there any discomfort in Chang'an?"

The status of merchants is low, let alone foreign merchants. This group of businessmen came all the way from Tocharo to Chang'an, and the officials on the way didn't give them a good face. But I didn't expect that big bosses like Zhao Guogong would be kind to him.

"I found the feeling of home in Chang'an."

"Yes! I never thought that such a prosperous city exists in the world."

"It's just... short of goods."

A group of businessmen seemed honest, but actually looked at Jia Pingan slyly.

In their eyes, only money is king in their eyes, so they are willing to be beaten by Master Jia with a whip.

"What do you need?" Jia Pingan showed the old father's kind smile.

A businessman tentatively said, "Ironware...don't dare."

Jia Ping'an's face was instantly cold, and the businessman hurriedly said he didn't dare.

Knew it!

"Tea!" The businessman said slyly: "The best tea in the world is here. Mr. Zhao. I remember the last time a caravan from Chang'an arrived in Tocharo. Someone took out the tea. When the boiling water was brewed in, the The smell of tea is intoxicating...then the tea was sold out by nobles in Tocharo."

Today, fried tea has long been the standard for the nobles, and a nobleman who doesn't know how to taste tea is crowned with a monkey.

Jia Pingan said flatly: "Jia doesn't care about this matter."

Ming Jing wanted to laugh... Is it easy to take advantage of Master Jia?

The merchants were extremely disappointed.

"Da Tang welcomes friends from all over the world. When you come to Chang'an for the first time, each person will be given ten catties of tea."

wipe!

Ming Jing noticed that several businessmen almost knelt down, and the others looked ecstatic.

Ten catties of tea!

Ship to Tocharo to compare to gold!

"Mr. Zhao..."

You are not fooling us, are you?

"By the way, I heard that the price of Tocharian cloth has increased recently?"

The businessman said: "Yes! Dashi cut off our business routes, so we came to Chang'an and wanted to buy some necessities from Chang'an."

"So..." Jia Ping'an frowned, "Does Dashi need cloth?"

The businessman nodded, "Dashi is now expanding everywhere, and wherever it goes, the order is chaotic, and there is a shortage of food and cloth."

"Business Road!"

Jia Pingan was frowning.

Shen Qiu felt that there was no need to care about these businessmen.

Ming Jing came out quietly, and said in a low voice: "Although Tocharo belongs to the Anxi Protectorate, they take care of themselves. What does it have to do with us that their merchants are cut off from the trade route in the direction of Dashi?"

Shen Qiu said: "It doesn't matter, but Zhao Guogong's work... Could it be that he wants to open up business channels for Da Tang to go to Dashi?"

Ming Jing crossed her arms and shook her head, "Impossible. The prices of goods from the Western Regions have been stable recently, so there is no need to spend energy to open up business channels."

The price is stable...

Shen Qiu glanced at her, frowned and said: "It's all exposed."

Ming Jing lowered her head, and found that her arms were crossed... she actually held the murderer up, the two bumps were very obvious.

"I want you to take care of it!" Ming Jing transformed into a tigress.

Shen Qiu: "..."

Jia Pingan pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "What is Dashi's attitude towards Datang?"

This is a business matter, Shen Qiu immediately said solemnly: "It is very kind."

Jia Pingan laughed and said, "I shouldn't be in charge of this matter, but Tocharo now belongs to Anxi, that's all, food cannot be sold, and you can't afford the price when you bring food from Chang'an to Tocharo."

The businessman smiled and said, "That's not true. People along this road eat horse chews, and selling grain will ruin their fortunes."

In this era, only the government can transport food over long distances. The distance is too long, and the cost of this journey is several times the value of the food itself. To put it another way: later generations let people use horse-drawn carts to transport grain, how much is the freight? Tens of kilometers are fine, but what about hundreds of kilometers?

What about thousands of kilometers? How about thousands of kilometers?

How much will the logistics company charge you for simply transporting by horse-drawn carriage?

The cliff far exceeds the value of that cart of grain.

Jia Pingan said: "This is difficult."

The merchants stared blankly at him as he got up and walked out.

Jia Pingan gave Ming Jing a wink.

Ming Jing understood instantly, but hesitated for a moment.

Baiqi Loan!

easy to say!

Shen Qiu watched the two make eye contact, not knowing what to do.

Ming Jing sighed, "Mr. Zhao, these businessmen are all citizens of the Tang Dynasty! Your Majesty loves the people like a son..."

The emperor would roll his eyes when he heard this.

Jia Pingan was taken aback, "Hey! This matter...that's all."

He turned around and asked, "Do you want the cloth?"

The businessmen nodded wildly like chickens pecking at rice.

Jia Pingan said: "Food is unlucky, but cloth is fine. So, on the basis of the market price, I will give you half of the price."

A group of businessmen were overjoyed.

"how many?"

Jia Ping'an was in a dilemma, and Ming Jing immediately cooperated, "Mr. Zhao, Your Majesty..."

"Hey!" Jia Pingan said, "As much as you want."

A group of businessmen looked at each other and began to communicate in their own language.

"What is the reputation of this Zhao Guogong?"

"Say it's a killer."

"That's hard to say."

"Long nights and many dreams."

The merchant who was recommended to negotiate said: "I don't know if I can get the goods today."

Jia Pingan said dissatisfied: "So urgent?"

The businessman smiled wryly, "If I stay in Chang'an for one more day, it will cost me one more day."

"Do you have enough money waiting to bring?"

The businessman said: "I'm going to find some businessmen from the Western Regions to join forces. Is this possible?"

A group of businessmen hid the greed in their eyes and looked at Jia Pingan eagerly.

Jia Pingan nodded with difficulty.

...

Thanks to the leader of "vampire | Wu" for the reward, it's the second one, open and bright.
