Hai Chaohou's expression gradually faded, and he said seriously, "This is a document of the right to coin coins."
"bass!"
Yang Qian stood up directly, looking at the document on the desk in disbelief, and couldn't help but be stunned.
After a long time, Yang Qian breathed a sigh of relief and frowned.
"what do you want?"
"I want a commitment."
"you say."
Hai Chao waited for this and said with a serious expression, "No matter when or where, as long as my family doesn't do anything that violates the law, Lord Wu An is not allowed to touch our family."
Hearing this, Yang Qian pondered and weighed.
But this time, Hai Chaohou was frightened. This guy Qing Qing really planned to secretly wipe out his entire family.
"This request~~~ I will comply, but I don't know much about these things. If after I mint coins, I find that Tide has plotted against me..."
Yang Gan's eyes turned cold, and he was already thinking in his heart, if he cheated me, I would kill his whole family.
Hai Chaohou instantly felt as if he was being stared at by some wild beast. He broke into a cold sweat and swallowed his saliva.
"Don't worry, I'm in Haichao County. It's your place now. The family members are all miscellaneous people, and I have nothing to do with them."
Hai Chaohou swallowed his saliva and instantly wiped out all the gates and valves in his original territory.
"Well, you didn't want to plot against me, that's good! Then stay with me for a few days. You gave me such a big gift, and I have to do my best to be a landlord."
Hai Chaohou immediately put it off and said, "No, no need. My daughter-in-law is going to have a baby recently, so I'm going back right away."
The corner of Yang Gan's mouth twitched fiercely, "I know everything about your family when you have a woolen child, but he didn't wear it."
Looking at Hai Chaohou's back that seemed to be running away, Yang Gan called Xiao Yu to verify it together.
There's nothing wrong with the format, the seal is correct, and it's still stamped with the seal of the previous king.
"Sir, haven't you thought about the right to mint coins for a long time, and Chaoxian has never agreed~!"
Yang Gan couldn't help smiling, but he still said in a worried tone, "Do you think Hai Chaohou is Erkaizi?"
"Of course not. If you weren't smart, you would have been eaten without even the bones."
Xiao Yu immediately came to the archives room, grabbed a book, and handed it to Yang Qian.
"According to the information reported by Anzi, Hai Chaohou actually hates you very much."
Yang Qian smiled and said, "Nonsense, I took away his land. He is the only one who doesn't hate me."
"According to the intelligence, when we learned that many members of the Wang family died in Dongde County, and even the county guard was captured, from that day on, Hai Chaohou was in panic all the time, for fear that he would be wiped out by you at some point."
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Maybe it was because of this that he handed over the right to mint coins."
"If you have the right to mint coins, why don't you mint coins yourself?"
"The mineral resources in Haichao County are not rich to begin with, and with so much land, there is no need for minting rights to produce coins on their own. Plus, there are constraints from the family."
"And judging from the records, when this coinage right was given, the world was still more chaotic than it is now, and a lot of people were given it. Later, it was gradually withdrawn. However, the one in Haichaohou seemed to have been forgotten, and it has not been withdrawn for a long time. In addition, there are With his military exploits and the fact that he didn’t cause much trouble, Chao Xian didn’t do anything else.”
Yang Gan held the document with the right to mint money and looked up to the sky and laughed. This is a good thing.
Yang Qian became interested and immediately went to the room to pull Zhang Yumeng out.
"Hey, stop playing. You've been here for several days. Don't you want to do something?"
Zhang Yumeng was holding a pork shop smoked with honey, and the other was having fun with playing cards.
"Don't make trouble, Mu Qing, who I finally defeated, don't spoil the fun."
Yang Gan licked his lips and said seductively, "Normally speaking, as long as the two of us defeat Mu Qing, we will kneel down for dozens of times later. Are you sure you still want to play?"
"Pa~!"
Zhang Yumeng threw the racket on the table and faced Zhao Wenmo
He said, "Momo, go ahead and play."
After saying that, he pulled Yang Qian outside.
"Momo, you're very affectionate, aren't you?"
Zhang Yumeng looked solemn and said, "It's very affectionate. What's wrong? Do you have any objections?"
Yang Qian shook his hands and said with a smile, "What's the matter? You have a good relationship with them, so you can give me an advantage. Don't fight in the palace, it's boring."
"Huh, you're wise, you finally couldn't help it and wanted me to make a motor, right?"
Zhang Yumeng showed an expression that said, "I've guessed it all." She looked very confident.
Yang Qian hesitated and said, "The motor is not in a hurry now, there are other things."
Zhang Yumeng immediately broke away from Yang Gan's hand and said with a wary look, "What do you want to do? I can tell you, I can still make things like motors. If you really ask me to make a steam engine, I will have to study for a long time by myself." That’s all.”
Yang Gan smiled and said, "Don't be so panicked. It's easy this time. The tide just came over and handed me the right to mint coins."
Zhang Yumeng couldn't help but his eyes widened, and he was stunned in disbelief.
"You, you mean, I, we can make our own money?"
Yang Gan nodded suddenly.
"Hahaha~~~!"
Zhang Yumeng threw herself at Yang Gan, rubbing her head against Yang Gan's face.
Suddenly she let go of Yang Qian and walked around in the living room, looking excited.
"Damn it, I deserve to be able to have a money printing factory in this life, hahaha, wouldn't that mean there is endless money to spend? It's going to be prosperous, it's going to be prosperous."
Yang Qian grabbed Zhang Yumeng's hand, and the two of them were as excited as two weasels who had stolen a chicken.
Xiao Yu looked at the two of them and shook his head helplessly. He couldn't understand what was going on with these two people. They seemed to be very emotional.
Generally, people in high positions are very rich, but the salary is very useful to them.
People usually pretend in front of outsiders and still pretend in front of family members. Isn’t that very tiring?
He was also his family, which gave Xiao Yu a sense of belonging.
"Yang Gan, tell me, you didn't just call me out to tell me the good news, right?"
Yang Gan nodded and said, "That's right. Let's put aside the motor issue. I want to mass-produce coins and unify currency and the like."
Zhang Yumeng also nodded in agreement. Every time he went out, there were several kinds of coins. They were specially sorted. If not, they would be combed.
Haha, that’s dozens of coins, a troublesome one. When paying, people have to weigh it before deciding whether to accept it or not.
The most disgusting thing is that even though there are many types of coins, many of them are privately minted and have very low copper content. It is better that such coins are not discovered. Once discovered, stores usually reject them.
Calling Xiao Yu, the three of them came to the military camp behind the mansion.
Thousands of the most elite Xuanjia troops have been stationed here for a long time, guarding tens of millions of coins.
But the most critical vault is underneath the mansion, where gold and silver are stored.
After opening the Uburg, when I came inside, I saw a huge space with rows of shelves as far as the eye could see.
Coins are placed in different containers according to type.
Zhang Yumeng grabbed the coins in a box, observed them carefully, and then curled his lips.
"Yang Gan, look, these coins are almost sticking together."
"They are all made of bronze. In my previous life, I thought ancient copper coins were all made of brass. Alas, they are still too young."
Zhang Yumeng laughed and said, "What's the point? I thought all coins were round. The cloth coins they said were made of cloth. In the end, the cloth must still be made of bronze."
Yang Gan nodded and said, "With so many coins, should we make them all pure copper? Make brass-colored coins, or just use bronze?"
Zhang Yumeng shook her head. She spent money much more than Yang Qian.
Yang Qian usually asked his men to get it done when he wanted something, and the money he paid was a lot of money.
Zhang Yumeng is different. Every time he visits
Everyone pays by herself, and she also has some understanding of people's attitudes towards money.
"It's better to use bronze. People in this era are not very fond of yellow coins. If you really produce it, if others don't use it, it will be a waste."
"It's not difficult to separate. Use acid, preferably dilute acid. Pure copper does not react with dilute acid, but tin is a pre-hydrogen metal and can react with acid."
"Okay, let's use bronze. Is there any way to make this coin look as bright and as good as the coins we made in the previous life? If the craftsmanship is good, I'll see how they can counterfeit the privately minted coins."
Zhang Yumeng frowned and said, "This is actually not difficult, just add some nickel."
Yang Qian spread his hands and said, "Hey, you are more proficient in these things. I am also very interested now. I will go to the foundry immediately to discuss it with Ou Yexia."
"Wait! Are there nickels in this era?" Zhang Yumeng worriedly asked. She was really not good at history.
Yang Gan smiled and said, "Nickel can be called the oldest and youngest metal."
"In my previous life, it existed more than 200 BC, but most of it was brought from meteorite. But when I was mining, didn't I ask you for advice? I have plenty of nickel, and it's very cheap."
"That's easy, just use bronze and add nickel, which is a copper-tin-nickel alloy!"
Yang Gan couldn't help but ask, "What will it look like when made?"
Zhang Yumeng spread his hands, "How do I know? This thing didn't exist in the previous life, but you can refer to the one-yuan coin. Isn't that silver? It's cyan as you imagine."
Yang Qian recalled it in his mind and said with a smile, "Yes, it seems pretty powerful."
Yang Gan took the two women to check quickly. Many coins were almost uneven, but it could also be seen which vassal state was stronger.
The coins cast by those with strong strength will naturally be beautiful and neat, while the coins cast by those with poor smelting skills will naturally not look good.
Others are privately minted coins and coins of small vassal states.
The two of them chatted and returned to the room on the fifth floor.
Zhang Yumeng sat down and took a sip of tea. "Nickel has high strength, corrosion resistance, and good hardness. Bronze has the characteristics of low melting point, high hardness, strong plasticity, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and bright color."
"This powerful combination can definitely create the most beautiful coins, and it will not need to be replaced for decades or even hundreds of years, tsk tsk tsk."
Zhang Yumeng immediately said, "How many should we make? Don't make too many. In case of inflation, we will be in trouble. By the way, was there inflation in ancient times?"
Yang Qian nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, there are generally two situations of inflation in ancient times."
"Usually due to financial constraints, coins with cut corners are issued, or currencies with larger denominations are issued, such as iron coins, which are used as copper. It may be okay in the short term, but over time, inflation can push a certain range There is internal strife, and prices are skyrocketing."
