"promise!"
"Actually, the method is very simple and consists of three points. First, the imperial court has made great contributions to the world. The imperial court recognizes all five-baht coins circulating in the market. All copper coins can be taxed according to their original currency value. As long as they meet the weight and appearance customized by the imperial court, any official No rejection for any reason!”
Seeing that the emperor was getting impatient, Liu Deng hurriedly said.
"But Your Highness, if we do this, the profit from just casting the money will be at least 30%!"
Shen Tujia suddenly became anxious, and Gongsun Mo was even more anxious.
After all, basically every copper coin of the imperial court has a fixed destination. If there is a sudden loss of 30%, many things will soon be forced to stop or lag behind due to lack of money.
"Of course I know that doing this will definitely damage the interests of the imperial court, but this will not cause losses to the people. As long as the common people are protected from harm, we can find the hole for the imperial court's debt this time from other places. return!"
Liu Deng was full of confidence. When he said this, his whole body was filled with a strong self-confidence.
Just this confident look made the emperor look at him differently.
"I wonder if His Majesty the King will come up with his plans?"
Gongsun Mo quickly raised his hands and asked Liu Deng.
After all, this is the most important thing within his scope of authority. If the imperial court cannot collect taxes in full, then he, the governor of Su Nei, will bear the brunt.
"This is the second point I am talking about. From today on, I implore Your Majesty to take back all the rights to mint coins. No matter what, even the major princes and kings are not allowed to mint copper coins privately!"
Liu Deng took a deep breath. Anyway, until now, there were no decent large copper mines in the country of Dai. The delegation of minting power was originally a very useless right for him.
But this right is too important for the several princes and kings who have copper mines in their territory.
Although there are no decent large copper mines in the territories of several other princes and kings, isn't this a small benefit?
His sword was really ruthless and accurate in cutting. Even for the King of Liang, his annual income from copper casting now accounts for about one-tenth of his total income.
"I'm afraid there's something wrong with this... After all, His Majesty has already delegated this power to others. If he takes it back now, I'm afraid it will cause a backlash from all the princes and kings..."
Liu Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly. This boy really dared to say anything. Although he also understood that this was the source of chaos, if Liu Deng's words were leaked out, I am afraid that all the princes and kings in the world would regard him as a thorn in their side. A thorn in the flesh.
"Keep talking!"
Unlike Liu Qi's worries, Liu Heng didn't have any expression on his face. He just glanced at Liu Deng very calmly and said casually.
"Your Majesty, a country's currency is a top priority, how can it be allowed to be interfered by private individuals? If the court is short of copper, the court can purchase copper mines from the major vassal states, but the right to mint money must not be given to outsiders. This is the source of chaos!"
After Liu Deng finished speaking, he cupped his hands towards the emperor and refused to get up for a long time.
Liu Heng fell into deep thought, and the middle finger and index finger of his right hand unconsciously touched the backrest of the dragon chair...
He was weighing the pros and cons. He really hadn't thought that much about this matter, but now it seemed that he had indeed made a mistake in this matter.
If King Wu Liu Bi did not have this right, he would at least not dare to do it so blatantly.
This matter was indeed his fault. Since he was wrong, he should naturally make things right. As for the backlash from the princes and kings of the world, he was confident that he could still suppress it!
"allow!"
After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Heng just said one word lightly.
Liu Deng, who lowered his head, finally showed a smile, "Fuck you, do this with me, I'll give you a try!"
As for the counterfeit coins played by King Wu Liu Bi, Liu Deng didn't care at all. After all, counterfeiting has never had a good end no matter in the past dynasties.
No matter how powerful he was, the emperor would never allow someone to take money out of his own purse!
This matter is actually easy to understand. How can we allow others to snore on the side of the bed?
Minting has always been the exclusive property of the emperor, and decentralizing the power of minting was just a helpless move at the time of the founding of the country.
Now that times have changed and these guys are seeking their own death, it’s time to take back this right.
"The third point, sir, I once again implore your majesty to set up Dahan Bank!"
This is the most important thing. It is not easy to mint copper coins in this era, and most of the copper coins that are minted are hoarded by wealthy people.
Anyone who doesn't have hundreds of thousands of copper coins saved at home will feel like they can't survive this day.
As the saying goes, if the superiors do something good, the subordinates will follow suit. This is true even for the princes and nobles, let alone those wealthy families.
"Isn't it possible that your kid came here specifically for this matter today?"
The emperor's face looked strange for a while. The emperor really didn't understand things like banks. He instinctively resisted areas in which he was not good at.
After all, even the emperor himself couldn't play with this thing. Once it was promoted to the whole country, what would it look like? The emperor really had no idea what it would be like.
"Your Majesty, this is for the sake of the country. Once the bank is on the right track, I am willing to sell all the bank shares I hold to the court at a fair price!"
In fact, Liu Deng knew very well. How could a country's state-owned bank allow private interference?
He originally had no intention of making much money from this matter. After the bank was truly established, he wanted to make money through the bank.
In fact, it is a simple matter. There is no need to hold shares in the bank.
Nowadays, the ratio between copper coins and gold and silver can be used to exploit the loopholes in the middle. There is really no need for him to hold shares in the bank.
Liu Deng couldn't be bothered to do such a thankless task, not being able to defeat the fox but also getting into trouble.
"Your Majesty, why don't you listen to His Highness the Acting King's specific ideas?"
As soon as things related to money were mentioned, Gongsun Mo immediately became interested.
"Now that Gongsun Aiqing has spoken, you should say it again in front of everyone!"
No matter what, the emperor still needs to give face to Gongsun Mo, who is the governor of Su Nei. He coughed dryly and said to Liu Deng.
"No! In fact, in addition to making money, banks also have three functions. First, they can speed up currency circulation and prosper commerce. People no longer need to drag a lot of copper coins around. They only need to go to the bank to sign a contract. You can complete the payment of copper coins!"
"Secondly, it can help the people tide over difficulties and greatly alleviate land annexation. The people will not be exploited too much. Looking at the rise and fall of the world, it is nothing more than excessive land annexation. Once the poor become poorer and the rich become richer, then The world will be in chaos soon!"
