Chapter 226: Unified Currency
Xu Xing and others were reminded by Zhang Liang and suddenly realized that Zhang Liang's words were correct. The Second Emperor of Qin Dynasty died. How could they know this in advance.
More importantly, the First Emperor was cruel by nature and was cursed to death as the Second Emperor of Qin. How could this person survive? This must be the conspiracy of the First Emperor.
Everyone had ugly looks on their faces when they thought about it.
Li Si smiled and said, "Zhang Fang, you are doubting the village chief. Do you know the consequences?"
Zhang Liang sneered and said: "Li Si, don't forget that I assassinated the village chief. I'm not afraid of the consequences, let alone the mere suspicion."
Ying Zheng stretched out a hand to stop him from speaking.
Then he said slowly: "Zhang Fang, I don't think you are so confused, you just don't want to believe it. You don't believe that there are so many things in the world.
Although the Za family is capable, all of them are talented people, such as Lu Buwei, who is the representative of the Za family. Without Lu Buwei in the Qin Dynasty, it might still take some time for the First Emperor to unify the six countries.
However, my husband's ability is not comparable to that of other people. If I insist on talking about a subject, he can be called a scientist.
According to the teacher, scientists can only have this title after they have studied a subject to the extreme. "
the scientist?
It was the first time that everyone heard about this family, and there seemed to be no scientists among the hundreds of scholars.
Feng Yan suddenly realized something and asked quickly: "Village Chief, could it be that the science museum was built with the intention of Mr. Scientist?"
"That's right." Ying Zheng said, "You guys don't have to doubt, you will see my master's ability soon."
At this moment, three more people came to the yard, they were Gongzi Gao, Li Xiao and Meng Chongde.
The three of them were carrying a basket of things.
Seeing this, Zhang Han immediately stepped forward to take the basket and followed the three of them to Ying Zheng.
The three young masters and senior officials immediately bowed to Ying Zheng and saluted: "See you, father."
"No need to be polite." Ying Zheng waved his hand, then looked at Zhang Han's basket, found a number of copper coins, and asked, "What are these?"
"Village chief, this is the copper coin made by Mr. Da Qin Tong Bao." Zhang Han said.
"Great Qin Tong Bao?" Ying Zheng doubtfully picked up a copper coin from the basket, looked at the smooth and uneven copper coin, and sighed: "It's really beautiful."
After Gong Shuyang and Meng Sheng saw the copper coins, their eyes couldn't help but light up, and they said at the same time: "Village chief, can I take a look?"
After saying that, the two looked at each other, and they both knew that the money-making technology shocked the other.
Ying Zheng glanced at the two of them and said, "Of course, everyone can watch it if they want."
"Thank you, village chief." Gong Shuyang and Meng Sheng said in unison again.
Then, they both took out a few copper coins from the basket, looked left and right, and found that the size, shape, and even weight of the coins were exactly the same, which shocked them.
Although the coins of the Qin Dynasty are now the same size and shape, they are very rough and even have different weights.
The reason is that his technology is not good, and the other reason is that anyone can cast the coins of the Qin Dynasty, as long as you have copper mines and technology.
In other words, whoever's family has a copper mine will have countless money.
Zhang Liang also picked up a few coins from the basket, looked around, and then asked: "Why does this gentleman want to mint coins? Does he have any plans for Da Qin?"
Zhang Han looked at Zhang Liang and didn't answer him. Instead, he looked at Ying Zheng, as if asking: Who is this guy? Just ask yourself directly?
Seeing that Qin An had no intention of coming out, Ying Zheng said, "He is Zhang Liang. Now his name is Zhang Fang."
Zhang Liang? Is this guy Zhang Liang, one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty? Zhang Han was shocked. He never thought that Ying Zheng could conquer Zhang Liang.
Immediately, Zhang Han explained: "Village chief, Mr. Zhang, the purpose of casting these copper coins is to use these coins to control the people and the army in these ten miles and eight villages.
The teacher said that nowadays, things are basically exchanged for goods in ten miles and eight towns, and there is no uniform price for goods, so he plans to mint copper coins and set a price for all items.
With the price, copper coins will have a place to be used. Only we have the technology to make money, so Zhaojia Village will become very rich. To be precise, you, the village chief, will be very rich.
Coupled with potatoes and sweet potatoes, we need money and food. As long as the army training is completed, the villagers of Zhaojiacun will be able to conquer Zhaojiacun and conquer the entire ten miles and eight townships. "
"Hahaha..." Ying Zheng laughed, "Sir, he still wants to return to his original world.
Okay, Zhang Han, please help sir. I want to see what step he can take. "
"No." Zhang Han responded.
Zhang Liang and others looked at Ying Zheng in confusion and asked Qin An to cultivate an army. What if it goes out of control?
The most important thing is that Qin An is very talkative. Can he train troops?
Zhang Liang looked at the copper coins in his hand and asked again: "Zhang Han, sir, did you say anything else?"
"What did you say?" Zhang Han thought for a while and said immediately, "It's true. Sir, one copper coin is equal to one penny, one thousand penny is equal to one tael of silver, and ten taels of silver is equal to one tael of gold.
Because Mr.'s purification technology is very high, whether it is copper coins, common people or gold, they are very popular among the villagers.
In order to make the villagers accept buying things with copper coins, some of the copper coins have been given to the villagers. "
Everyone was a little speechless. Using money to buy things has been around for a long time, but the coins of the seven countries are different. Ying Zheng wants to unify the currency, but it has not been implemented yet.
"Hahaha..." Ying Zheng laughed again, "I didn't expect that my husband would do what I want to do but haven't done yet.
Meng Yi wrote down the method of making money and his husband's ideas. After returning, he gave it to Xiao He and asked him to set up a money-making workshop under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. No one was allowed to mint coins privately, and offenders would be executed. "
"promise."
Ying Zheng had just heard from Zhang Han's words that allowing others to mint money seemed not a good thing, so he banned others from minting money.
Xiao He is currently the best candidate. He is one of the three heroes in the early Han Dynasty. He is indispensable for Liu Bang's success in conquering the world.
"Father," Gongzi Gao said, "not only can you unify the currency, but you can also develop simplified Chinese characters."
"What do you mean by this?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Sir, I chose a book and listed all the simplified Chinese characters. Ha'er, Li Xiao, and Mond have already learned it." Gongzi Gao said.
"Really, that's great." Ying Zheng said excitedly.
In fact, it's not that Gongzi Gao and the others are illiterate, they just don't know simplified Chinese characters. As long as they compare simplified Chinese characters with Qin Zhuan characters, they will quickly learn them.
"My child, go get the comparison copy now." Gongzi Gao said.
Some people died, but not completely...
