"Is this thing really worth a billion dollars?" Xu Shu said in disbelief.
"Here's something for you. You'll know after you go out and try it. But don't spend it. I might destroy it later." Chen Xi casually handed the note to Xu Shu.
To be honest, this was just Chen Xi sending Xu Shu away. When Xu Shu asked about money and food, Chen Xi still hesitated. Liu Bei's money and food would definitely be enough to rule Yuan Shao, but it would definitely not be enough to spend as much as Taishan.
The definition of money is just a general equivalent, so a note can also be given this value. This is also the reason why Chen Xi said that as long as he is here, there will be no shortage of money under Liu Bei's rule. However, food is different. That thing has value in itself. , it’s not the kind of money that can be circulated to support Chen Xi’s credibility!
In fact, this is the biggest headache for Chen Xi. This kind of transaction does not support the country's credit, but Chen Xi's personal credibility. This makes Chen Xi speechless when he wakes up. Isn't it obvious that he is already inexplicably? transformed into a humanoid money printing machine.
What's even more confusing is that when paying monthly salary, Chen Xi would write notes to save trouble and then ask them to go to the bank to collect them. As a result, Taishan officials now actually have a high degree of recognition of notes, and they will get discounts when buying daily necessities. The situation is completely left over from the time when Taishan was built!
Chen Xi really wanted to tell those shops that sell daily necessities that there is no need to offer slight discounts. There is no such custom in Taishan!
The reason for the slight discount at the beginning was that there was not much money in Taishan at that time and it needed to be recycled. We tried not to let the people receive wages. Only when buying things for free would there be a slight discount. This was enough to prevent those frugal people from withdrawing money. And to take advantage of that little bit.
As a result, the only things Chen Xi could provide at that time were daily necessities, and he didn't have the ability to provide other things. As a result, I don't know why Baitiao later got a discount on these daily necessities, and it has continued until now. It spread completely under Liu Bei's rule.
Official recognition is high. Naturally, the recognition of businessmen cannot be low. For this reason, Chen Xi even had to use some special paper when writing certain large notes, such as Zhao Yun Wen Yang's special paper.
This is also where Chen Xi finds it difficult to talk to Liu Bei and tell him. Liu Bei didn't understand it at all, and he didn't dare to give this power to others.
Even for a cautious person like Zhuge Liang, when the other party finds out that his notes can be used as real money, he will definitely want to build the entire country as soon as possible, and there will be no need to talk about it later. It would be strange if the entire country was not tricked to death!
Although it is a bit early to say this, there is a certain truth in this era that politics is the continuation of the economy. Chen Xi really does not dare to hand over such dangerous things to others. This is a weapon that can really bring down a country. The most important thing is Yes, basically no one in this era knows how to play.
Xu Shu went out with the note and was ready to try it. To be honest, Chen Xi said that this thing was worth a billion dollars, but he really didn't believe it. After all, it was not a number of millions. It is truly equivalent to the tax revenue of several counties for one year!
As a result, the facts were placed in front of Xu Shu, and Xu Shu couldn't help but not believe it. Although Li You was puzzled by Xu Shu's note, he also told the other party that he could exchange it for one billion yuan. The Yecheng bank was not in place yet, so he could not pay such a lump sum. If there is more, you can pay from Zhen’s family first.
These words really frightened Xu Shu, especially when Zhang said that he could exchange it, Xu Shu completely understood the concept of what Chen Xi said. It only takes a few seconds to fill in a few counties' taxes for a year and it comes out!
"I'm still keeping this thing. I've warned Zichuan many times to fill it out with special paper. If he insists on using this kind of paper, Zilong will need to get his hands on it later." Li You took the billion dollars from Xu Shu's hand. . Then put it in a book and put it away.
"Do you need me to exchange it into cash? The Zhen family branch in Yecheng still has one billion yuan in cash. It just so happens that it doesn't have to be transported to the bank directly under Fenggao." Zhang, who came to see Liu Bei, asked casually. Money is also a very troublesome thing, especially for such a large amount, which can only be collected by the direct bank.
"No, the bank directly under the bank will also move here." Li You said casually. To be honest, he didn't understand how Chen Xi operated, but he knew very well that the note in his hand could allow him to transfer money at the bank. "Yuan Zhi, did Zichuan tell you how to handle this money?"
"I didn't say it." Xu Shu had forgotten what Chen Xi said about destruction at this time. He still had some doubts about whether the billion money could really be used.
"Oh, that probably belongs to pensions and construction investment, but that guy actually gave me a note of one billion yuan. That guy used to figure it all out." Li You was obviously pretending to be confused, and he was very dissatisfied. Understand, obviously as long as Chen Xi fills out the note, he will be given money, so why doesn't he fill it out?
With one billion dollars in hand, it is much easier for Li You to do something. Even if he wants to immigrate, one billion dollars can move millions of people. This is different from real estate like family assets, which can all be used as Cash used.
When Xu Shu came back, he didn't say anything to Chen Xi. When Chen Xi asked about the note, Xu Shu just said one sentence and stopped. In view of his recognition of Xu Shu's character, Chen Xi didn't ask any more questions.
When Chen Xi checked the general ledger of the bank at the end of the year, he saw the one billion dollars that had not been repaid, and he felt like strangling Li You and Xu Shu. That was cash, cash that should never be used unless necessary, just to avoid possible In the case of a run, they don’t have much money, so they rely on credit!
But now Chen Xi doesn't know this, and still laughs with Xu Shu about the past. Xu Shu talked about his life when he cut down a street. Chen Xi recalled the experience of going to Luoyang with Liu Bei as a fledgling, and time passed quickly.
"Hey, isn't this George?" The two people who were chatting accidentally saw Xinpi walking out of the main hall. They both said with smiles. Xinpi has a good saying, if you meet a fellow villager when you go out, help him. Zhu Ling, that unlucky kid, would probably scream unfairly when he saw Xin Pi's treatment.
"Thank you very much, Marquis Chen, for letting me know everything about the family." Xin Pi said neither humble nor overbearing. Even though he had learned from his daughter that Yuan Shao was dead, he was not shaken at all.
In Xinpi's view, such childish words were just Liu Bei's one-sided words to persuade him. How could a man as heroic as Yuan Shao die in battle? The current situation was just a temporary defeat! I think the battle between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao was more dangerous than it is now. Yuan Shao won the battle. He had absolute confidence in Yuan Shao!
"Oh, it's nothing. Your daughter fought for it herself." Chen Xi said casually, "So you're welcome. For the sake of my fellow countrymen, I won't abuse you. When you figure it out, just tell me."
"I will not resist, but I will not surrender either." Xinpi said calmly. (To be continued.)
