After settling issues such as the policy face value of the currency, Tang Zheng did not go to eat immediately.
He came to the inner city almost non-stop and built a banknote printing factory.
The banknote printing factory is located on the east side of the inner city, so it is closer to the bank and the transportation is relatively convenient.
Another five hundred thousand gold was spent, and the construction of the banknote printing plant was completed.
However, there are more employees here than in the bank, with a total of 300 people.
One hundred of them are security personnel in the factory, and one hundred are mobilized soldiers.
However, they still do not occupy the establishment of the Light Chasing Army, they are only responsible for protecting the money printing factory.
The remaining 200 people, except for a few senior executives, are all workers.
From drawing, finalizing, printing, reviewing, cutting, semi-finished products to finished products, there is a dedicated person responsible for each process.
The factory has a total of eleven printing workshops and one coin manufacturing workshop.
The eleven printing workshops correspond to the printing of eleven types of banknotes from one thousand to one cent.
Coins are relatively simple, you only need to make one type of coin.
After Tang Zheng completed the construction, the printing factory people would start work here.
The work efficiency of Qi Zhengyang and the others was astonishingly high. As soon as Tang Zheng completed the construction, they had already produced the pattern of the sample coin.
Seeing that the banknote printing factory was starting work, Tang Zheng simply stopped eating and waited patiently for the first set of sample coins to appear.
Through the electronic screen here, he can clearly see the entire process of currency manufacturing.
Looking at the coins made one by one according to his own ideas, Tang Zheng felt very satisfied.
About twenty minutes later, the first set of currencies was completed.
Each version is produced with 10,000 pieces, a total of hundreds of thousands of currency pieces, and 10,000 coins.
"General, it's done, please take a look."
Bundles of brand new banknotes were placed in front of Tang Zheng's eyes, making him a little dazzled.
He first took out one card among the 1,000 yuan and picked it up to check.
What is a little surprising is that the banknote still has some weight and the paper is quite thick.
1,000 yuan is a large note and has the largest area.
The front is what Tang Zheng requested, the panoramic view of Zhuguang City.
The big city under the mountains, with winding rivers and flags fluttering on the city head, makes it feel like the vastness of the world.
The words "Zhuguang Bank" on it are in italics, and the entire coin appears golden.
On the back is a panoramic view of Chasing Light Bank.
There are also points that blind people can touch on it. If you rub it with your hands, it will feel a little bumpy and have a strong three-dimensional effect.
It trembled in the wind, and the currency rattled and was very strong.
At this time, Li Changjun, the new director of the banknote printing factory, said to Tang Zheng: "General, according to your requirements, our banknotes are made very high-end, and the paper is also mixed with anti-acid technology and waterproof technology. Normally, a banknote is used frequently. The lifespan is also more than ten years.”
Tang Zheng nodded with satisfaction: "Well done, what about anti-counterfeiting?"
"Anti-counterfeiting is easier. You must know that paper is the first thing to make banknotes. No one can imitate our paper, let alone other processes."
"Very good, I'm very satisfied."
Tang Zheng looked at other banknotes, silver 300 yuan banknotes, purple 100 yuan banknotes, etc.
After reading this, he looked at the one-cent notes and coins.
Behind the pennies, Smart and Pretty were photographed very lifelike, sticking out their tongues very cutely.
In fact, Tang Zheng originally wanted to film Tangtang, but he didn't want to expose Tangtang's existence yet, so he could only postpone the issue for the time being.
The current edition is only the first edition of banknotes, and there will be more opportunities in the future.
When the situation stabilizes, you can issue a second or third set.
There are also coins.
Tang Zheng picked up a coin and weighed it with his hands. It was neither light nor heavy, so it was more suitable to hold and play with.
The gold-plated brass process makes this coin look like a gold coin.
Tang Zheng picked it up and blew it with his mouth, and the coin made a pleasant buzzing sound.
"This is good. It seems that many people will get used to playing with a coin in the future."
After seeing all the money, Tang Zheng was about to leave. Li Changjun immediately said: "General, this money is yours, take it with you."
"Oh? Why is it mine?"
"General, this first set of Guangyuan, the first edition, is the most precious. Look at the numbers, from 1 to 10,000. Only you are worthy of holding this edition. I can say this, one year from now, you will have The value of this set of currencies is at least five times its own value!"
Tang Zheng was also slightly stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that this currency has such a high collection value.
Not to mention anything else, those ten thousand pieces worth one thousand guangyuan are worth ten million in themselves. If they double five times in a year, wouldn't they be worth fifty million?
With the little money I have, it won’t be a problem to sell it for three to five hundred million in a few years.
Seeing the enthusiasm of his men, Tang Zheng couldn't refuse, so he could only carry the money back to the official residence.
After that, the banknote printing factory was on full fire, working overtime to start producing new currency.
After research at the bank, Qi Zhengyang reported to Tang Zheng that the total amount of printing of the first batch of currency was required to be three billion.
Of course, the three billion is not much, but it is only the first batch and is put into the market to test the waters.
Tang Zheng agreed to this request and asked the bank to free their hands and do it as soon as possible.
Later, Qi Zhengyang also requested that a branch savings institution be opened in a prosperous area of Zhuguang City and recruit staff at the same time.
Tang Zheng also approved and asked Qi Zhengyang to choose the site by himself.
Printing banknotes is only the first step. Next, Light Chaser City still has a lot of new work to do.
First of all, the points system is cancelled, and points are exchanged for currency in proportion.
The original points are redeemed at a ratio of three to one, with three points being exchanged for one light dollar.
Originally, one kilogram of grain could be exchanged for one point, but now three kilograms of grain could be exchanged for one light dollar.
In the past, there were gasoline, gold and other materials that could be exchanged for points, but now they can also be exchanged for light yuan.
The detailed pricing was determined by the Ministry of the Interior, which is more in line with the current actual situation in Zhuguang City.
Of course, this price is not static, and market laws are always operating.
In order to make Guangyuan a hit, Tang Zheng also did a lot of work and began to introduce some goods to the market one after another.
It's another day after the end of the world. The sky is still gray, but with the arrival of autumn, the rainfall has gradually decreased.
It is even said that it has not rained for almost twenty days, but there has been frost once.
In the early morning, the residents of Zhuguang City got up and prepared to start a new day of work.
There are many jobs in Chasing Light City now, but there are too many people. Since people from the Peninsula Base joined in, the total number of people in Chasing Light City has exceeded the 600,000 mark!
This number of people has exceeded the total number of people in the alliance's twelve bases.
But even in Chasing Light City, people can't do nothing and eat for free.
There are many professions now. People with guns will organize themselves to collect supplies, that is, a team of adventurers, which is more profitable.
As the adventurer team grows larger, it may become a mercenary group, which is the most profitable.
However, neither adventurers nor mercenaries can be done by ordinary people. Without certain military skills, some knowledge of wilderness survival, strong physique and combat effectiveness, and not enough courage and care, working in this industry is basically to risk death. .
The rest, who have professional counterparts before the end of the world, can find corresponding jobs.
For example, former doctors and nurses, or those who have studied in the medical industry, can go to Zhuguang Hospital.
For example, those who have studied accounting, done statistical work, or done interpretation work before can apply for jobs in the trading floor.
Those who can drive and can afford a car can become drivers.
If you have particularly good physical strength, you can work as a stevedore, loading and unloading goods for the adventurer team.
For those who have been engaged in the construction industry, urban construction is now flourishing in Zhuguang City, and there are also jobs for them.
Those who are particularly good at cooking open restaurants, and some craftsmen set up stalls.
Some weak women who have no special skills may even choose to sell their bodies if they are beautiful. This kind of thing is now happening in Light Chaser City.
But there are more ordinary people who can't find any jobs and live very difficult lives.
On weekdays, these people would choose to go near the trading floor, because there are many people here and it is easy to find work.
So every day when the trading floor opens, people flock here, looking for business opportunities, or waiting for a boss to come and hire them. There are even people holding signs here to help queue up and handle business.
This morning was no exception. Even before the trading hall opened, the square outside was crowded with tens of thousands of people.
The staff of Zhuguang City's Ministry of Interior entered through the back door and prepared to start the day's work.
Security opened the doors to the trading floor and people poured in.
After entering, many people who hung out here every day felt something different.
There are many large display cabinets around the trading hall, where materials are sold and purchased.
There are still rolling subtitles on the big screen in the hall.
This subtitle can be posted by the Light Chasing Army, and other people can also post it, as long as they spend a certain amount of points.
But today is indeed different.
Because there are too many extra products.
Brand new cars are displayed in rows in the corner of the hall, including many expensive models from before the end of the world.
Life-saving medicines that were once rare in the past are now on sale, including cold medicines, anti-inflammatory medicines, healing medicines, antibiotics, cough and asthma remedies, and even first aid kits.
Here in the weapons display cabinet, heavy machine guns, military jeeps, grenades, etc. are all put on the shelves.
Even on the shelves of the trading floor, there are some products that were not available before.
Mutated beast meat is something that many people know. Eating it can strengthen the body. However, currently, survivors are generally short of money and can only be enjoyed by adventurers and mercenaries who are often active outside and have deep pockets.
This is not unusual, but the other thing is really shocking.
In a fenced area, there is a hexagonal glass display case.
Inside the display cabinet, there was a syringe with a light blue liquid inside.
Beside the display cabinet, there are soldiers from the Light Chasing Army guarding it with guns and live ammunition. People can only look at it from the outside, but they cannot go inside to touch it.
There is an introduction next to it with some jaw-dropping words.
[Antiviral serum: It can resist zombie viruses. It is effective within 30 minutes after infection and lasts for 48 hours. 】
