"Prime Minister, Yang Zhi has rebelled..." The sentence that Xiao Letian heard most on the road was this. A very ordinary name, a very ordinary person, neither a civil official nor a military general, but he had Xiao Letian in his hands. A secret of a financial empire.
The printing house, as the name suggests, is a place where things are printed. Most of Ryukyu's newspapers, magazines, and student books are printed hidden in the mountains near Kunigami Naval Base in the north of the island.
There are many dry caves, which not only saves costs, but also increases safety, because the printing house not only prints books, but also prints money.
Military stamps, bonds, checks... all kinds of paper-printed currency were born here. Xiao Letian didn't understand the superb coin-making technology in his previous life, but he understood part of it from film and television works and the Internet.
Xiao Letian knows that in fact, the banknotes of later generations are not paper at all but a kind of cloth. Yes, the US dollar paper technology is nearly 70% cotton fiber and 30% flax fiber. This is the main material. As for Xiao Letian didn't know what else was added to prevent counterfeiting.
In fact, each country has its own tips for printing money, which results in the unique feel of each country's banknotes. Xiao Letian cannot come up with such awesome banknote craftsmanship as later generations, but as long as he knows where the direction is, he can spend money to get it. A scientific research team went to test it.
What is the ratio of cotton fiber to wood fiber, whether to add some animal fibers such as wool, how to make the watermark, and how to try the ink formula, these are all very important, and it also requires step-by-step experiments to finally finalize the process.
It is precisely because of long-term investment and correct direction that in just two years, Ryukyu's National Printing Factory has a complete set of coinage processes. The banknotes printed in Ryukyu now are definitely incomparable to Xiao Letian's previous life. Yes, but in the world at that time, it was already a first-class magical skill.
It goes without saying that even Europeans could not imagine how they could make the dragon watermark on banknotes so realistic and complex.
Shenji naturally has the highest level of security measures. The CIA has a dedicated financial team to do this. Among them, Yang Zhi, a veteran of the Kingdom of Heaven, is the person in charge selected by Wang Huaiyuan.
Today, the problem lies with Yang Zhi.
A group of cavalry galloped along the wild mountain roads of Ryukyu. After a while, Sister Wu and Wang Huaiyuan appeared on the opposite side, and they came to join the Prime Minister.
When Wang Huaiyuan saw Xiao Letian, he quickly stood up and dismounted, "This subordinate is guilty of death for treason... Please punish me, Prime Minister."
"Get up. If you want to be punished, you have to wait until the problem is solved. Tell us what happened." Xiao Letian grabbed Wang Huaiyuan and continued to ride towards the printing factory.
Wang Huaiyuan chased after him, "Thanks to the Kirigakure kid for this incident... Oh no, no, it must be Sister Wu... Without her, I really wouldn't have been able to discover this mole."
When Xiao Letian had a meeting with the Kirigakure kid on the sea before, he knew that Sister Wu had a very hidden intelligence network, which was basically composed of women who were loyal to her. Xiao Letian's request was to put this The Intelligence Network was merged into the Intelligence Bureau to form the Swallow Department.
Swallow is a special name given to beautiful spies by the KGB in the previous life, and Xiao Letian also hopes to have such a beautiful spy force in his hands.
After Sister Wu came to Ryukyu with the ship, the Intelligence Bureau arranged accommodation for him and allocated a start-up fund. Soon Sister Wu started to contact the swallows she stayed in Ryukyu and compiled the information of the swallows during this period. Results.
Wang Huaiyuan wiped his sweat and looked at the Kirigakure kid with admiration. "I didn't expect that there would be so many flaws in the work of the Intelligence Bureau. Now I know that six of the female ninjas under Sister Kirigakure have already married." Of the high-ranking officials in Ryukyu, four are concubines and two are wives.”
"There are also 11 kunoichi who have become bosses in all walks of life, including 3 who opened brothels and 4 who opened izakayas... There are still many kunoichi who have not started... The entire Ryukyu Kiri-nee There are hundreds of people in the intelligence network.”
"In the past, these ninjas were our enemies, but today these ninjas have provided us with important information."
From the introduction of Wang Huaiyuan and Kirigakure, Xiao Letian understood a general idea. Yang Zhi was a trustworthy veteran of the Kingdom of Heaven, otherwise Wang Huaiyuan would not have placed him in such an important position.
But people are always changing. Souls that cannot be conquered by wind, swords, and snow often transform in peace and ease. Wine, sex, and wealth are the four major enemies that cannot be avoided in life, and Yang Zhi is placed at these four thresholds. .
People in the army love to drink, and Yang Zhi also likes it. In the past, he was under the control of military discipline in the army, so he did not dare to drink too much. Now that he has joined the Intelligence Bureau and is responsible for the security work of the printing factory, he has money and time, so naturally he drinks a few more drinks on weekdays.
Wine is a matchmaker for sex, and there are many people who drink and drink, and with money in their pockets, there is naturally no shortage of women who take the initiative to tease. As a result, in just two years, Yang Zhi married four concubines, plus his The eldest wife has five women in total, and now the house is in chaos.
There are three women in one drama, let alone five women. In addition, Yang Zhi himself likes to go out to hunt for wild food, which makes things more and more uneasy at home and outside. Moreover, the high salary that was originally enough is now a bit too much. We are stretched thin.
Facts have proved that raising a woman is not something you can afford with just a tube of rice. Today I ask you for a piece of silk, tomorrow you want a hairpin, and the day after tomorrow you change your house.
Moreover, women compare with each other and are grudged against each other, which makes Yang Zhi miserable.
He had all four major worries: wine, sex, wealth and luck.
"Among Yang Zhi's four concubines, there is a Japanese woman who is Sister Wu's subordinate. Four months ago, she discovered that Yang Zhi's originally dire financial crisis had suddenly eased, and Yang Zhi had been working with several Businessmen have secret connections..."
"At that time, Sister Wu didn't join us. The kunoichi was naturally happy to see Yang Zhi betray Ryukyu, so she didn't tell anyone about it... It wasn't until Sister Wu met her yesterday that we found out that four Thirty-thirty is the time for Yang Zhi to defect."
"This traitor took away our banknote making technology. The Manchu Qing Dynasty has bribed him. He betrayed us..."
Xiao Letian slapped his forehead and said that he still underestimated the wisdom of the ancients. These Manchu dignitaries had no ability to create wealth at all, but they had the ability to smash pots.
As soon as banknotes appeared, this group of people focused on the cost. Fortunately, they did not let the Ministry of Household Affairs directly take over the business of issuing banknotes. Otherwise, based on the virtues of this group of people, they would definitely be extortionate and extortionate, and they would be as good as the Ming Dynasty treasure Money will end up in the same place.
Note: This is the first update today, and there are probably only two more updates today.
