Mengzi personally led the army to Quanzhou to pick up Feng Yibo.
Gouzi took Liuqiu's most respectable people to greet him at Beigang.
Seeing that the ship had entered the berth, Feng Yibo never got off.
Gouzi couldn't help but be a little confused, so he boarded the boat to find out.
Feng Yibo was currently looking at the endless flow of merchants and ships in the harbor.
Seeing the dog coming up, he asked casually:
"Is the matter at Yinzhuang still going well?"
When Gouzi heard this, he didn't rush to answer. Instead, he turned around and said to the people who were following him:
"You all go down and wait."
After everyone got off the boat, only the master and the servant were left.
He then hurriedly came over to reply and said:
"As far as I'm concerned, sir, the bank's affairs are generally going well."
Gouzi originally wanted to wait until he returned to Heilong Mansion to help the old man clean up his dust.
After a night's rest, we will talk about these government affairs tomorrow.
But seeing that Feng Yibo was interested at this time, he naturally would not disobey, so he said:
"Because our Black Dragon Coin is easy to use and the Black Dragon Mansion is also convincing, the people here in Liuqiu accepted it very quickly."
Feng Yibo nodded slightly, with a taste in his mouth:
"Black Dragon Coin?"
He hadn't given the new money a name before, but he didn't expect it to be named here.
Gouzi nodded and explained:
"The backs of our gold and silver coins have the commonly used dragon pattern in the Black Dragon Mansion, and the words 'Made under the supervision of the Black Dragon Mansion' are written on the front. As soon as they came out, they were called Black Dragon Coins, and the gold coins were also called Golden Dragons and Silver Coins. It's called Silver Dragon, which is a common name here in Liuqiu."
"It's quite appropriate."
Feng Yibo smiled and nodded, no longer worrying about the name, but asked again:
"What's the feedback from customers?"
Just now Gouzi only mentioned the people of Liuqiu, and there was obviously something in his words.
Sure enough, when Gouzi heard this, he showed a trace of disdain and sneered:
"Most of the merchants took a wait-and-see attitude at first and only exchanged some before using it. Even so, they complained a lot, saying that our Black Dragon Coins were not enough and that we were robbing money."
"Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Yibo laughed a few times and nodded:
"What they said is true!"
The black dragon silver coin weighs seven cents and two cents, and contains six cents and four cents of silver.
The gold coins were better, considered pure gold in this era, but they were only seven cents and two cents.
There are also carriages and horses on display at the silver village. One tael of gold or silver can be exchanged for one gold or silver black dragon coin.
It's not unfair to say it's a money grab.
"hey-hey!"
Gouzi also laughed twice and said proudly:
"There are also people who know the goods and redeemed a lot in one go. Now in some places in Quanzhou, people are starting to use Black Dragon Coins."
For those who do business, especially those who open retail stores.
It’s normal to occasionally receive some lead-filled fake silver.
It is the nature of businessmen to pursue profits, but those who can make their business bigger are not stupid.
Liuqiu's black dragon coins are easy to use, easy to identify, and have clear denominations.
Apart from the shortcoming of insufficient portion, it is almost perfect currency.
"oh?"
Feng Yibo also predicted that Black Dragon Coin might slowly penetrate into the Wei Dynasty and the West.
However, I was slightly surprised to hear that Quanzhou was used so quickly.
Seeing his expression, Gouzi smiled again and explained:
"Silver is troublesome to use and easy to be fake, but black dragon coins are easy to calculate and easy to distinguish. They are highly recognized by the people, and merchants are naturally willing to use them."
Most shops always have scissors and scissors.
When you receive a large piece of silver, you need to cut it with scissors and then weigh it with a skewer.
Shears are very laborious to use.
An adult sometimes needs to press on with his whole body to cut off large pieces of silver.
The portion is wrong and needs to be cut again.
Or use copper coins to complete it.
Repeat this several times, and the amount of broken silver will increase.
The melting and recasting of broken silver will also cause fire consumption.
In addition, the price of silver fluctuates greatly.
One tael may cost 800 cents today, but may be worth 1,200 cents tomorrow or elsewhere.
Not to mention the trouble that comes and goes, there are still many accounts that are not clear.
It gives countless people the possibility to get their hands on it.
Because of this, the benefits of Black Dragon Coin are even more highlighted.
Except for the lack of portion, everything else is a plus.
"So even if the portion is not enough, more and more people are beginning to accept Black Dragon Coins."
Gouzi had a smile on his face, and finally said domineeringly:
"Of course, there are some who don't want to, but no one dares to do Liuqiu."
The people of Liuqiu looked up to the Black Dragon Mansion, indeed no one dared.
Seeing that Feng Yibo was noncommittal, Gouzi continued:
"During this period, some people discovered the benefits of the Black Dragon Coin and tried to imitate it, but they couldn't make it the same."
Liuqiu uses a stamping process, so no matter how others cast it, it will be in vain.
This is the importance of anti-counterfeiting.
"Hahaha!
Everything was as expected. Feng Yibo laughed even more when he heard this and asked:
"Then what?"
Seeing that he was interested again, Gouzi smiled and said:
"These people have cast some, and some people below have encountered them, but they can tell the authenticity at a glance, so they can't be spent at all."
The minted black dragon coins have fuzzy patterns and rough and dull surfaces.
Anyone with eyes can see the problem.
What's more, there are also methods such as blowing coins to distinguish sounds.
These anti-counterfeiting methods were also promoted with the issuance of Black Dragon Coin.
People can easily tell the difference between true and false, so they are naturally more willing to use black dragon coins.
Gou Zi also looked proud and said with a smile:
"These people realize that the Black Dragon Coin is easy to use and cannot be copied. Naturally, they love and hate our Black Dragon Coin, but there is nothing they can do about it."
Although I know the portion is not enough, it is easy to use and makes people reluctant to part with it.
I want to copy it but I can’t.
It is true that these profit-seeking businessmen love and hate the Black Dragon Coin.
Feng Yibo nodded with satisfaction.
The impact of the Black Dragon Coin is definitely more than that.
But such an effect has been achieved in a short period of time, which has exceeded his expectations.
The rest of the benefits will take time to settle.
Thinking of this, he stopped asking about the matter and asked instead:
"How about the warning hall? Is there anyone looking for trouble?"
The Zhen family was very powerful in the south of the Yangtze River and had countless senior relatives.
It is inevitable for businessmen coming and going to send messages back.
Someone got the message and came over, either to visit or to rescue.
It is not impossible to even buy a few of them and use them as forbidden treasures.
"Some people came, but they were all sent away."
Hearing this, Gouzi nodded indifferently and said:
"When someone asked, we only said that we bought it from somewhere else and were willing to take care of it, so we came here to take care of the business. As for the rest, we already said on the day we opened that the family members of traitors cannot redeem it."
From the perspective of outsiders, the business of this warning center is extremely booming.
It is no exaggeration to say it is a money tree.
It is human nature not to allow redemption.
What's more, to warn the world.
This was announced to the outside world when it opened.
"Some were unwilling to leave when they came, and were almost beaten to death by the people who came after hearing the news. Fortunately, there were soldiers stationed there, so they were allowed to leave alive."
There are mostly immigrants from Fujian and Vietnam here. Who has never suffered from Japanese pirates?
People's ideas are often the simplest.
Once you hear that someone wants to redeem yourself for a traitor, you must be a traitor too.
The Black Dragon Mansion doesn't allow people in the warning hall to be beaten, so it's okay to beat you, right?
When Feng Yibo heard this, he knew how deep the Liuqiu people's hatred for the Japanese was.
It seems that I made the right choice to attack the Japanese country.
Otherwise, there are Australia and New Zealand to the south of Donghae County.
To the west, there are many small countries such as Mancajia.
Why did you choose to attack Japan?
In addition to his knowledge of the Japanese country in his previous life, he also fought against the Japanese in this life.
Just to comply with the public opinion of Liuqiu!
What Feng Yibo wanted to know was basically clear.
No matter how specific it is, I’m not in a hurry to ask.
Right now, he was about to get off the boat and head to the Black Dragon Mansion.
But just as he was about to speak, Gouzi suddenly came over and said flatteringly:
"Uncle, speaking of the warning center, I have left two girls from the Zhen family for you."
Feng Yibo frowned immediately when he heard this and scolded:
"What are you leaving for me? Didn't I say that all men, women, old and young should be sent to the police station?"
Gouzi was a little surprised, but as soon as he rolled his eyes, he bravely explained:
"Uncle, these two girls from the Zhen family are a little different. From a distance, they look vaguely like the eldest grandma. If they were placed in a warning hall, it would be a bit disrespectful after all..."
"Grandma?"
The eldest grandma here is naturally referring to Ke Qing.
When Feng Yibo heard this, he thought of his concubine Xiang Ling.
When he was in Jinling, it was because Xiangling looked a bit like Keqing.
I bought it regardless.
Speaking of which, Xiangling also has the surname Zhen.
But Qing was adopted by Qin Ye in the Yangsheng Hall.
Could it be said that Keqing's life experience has something to do with the Zhen family?
Seeing his hesitation, Gouzi immediately yelled again:
"Yes! If I hadn't looked at them coldly and looked a bit similar to the eldest grandma, I wouldn't have left them here."
Feng Yibo was not very interested in the Zhen family girl, so he waved his hand and said:
"Let grandma handle this matter later."
With that said, he turned around and was about to get off the boat. As he walked, he said casually:
"Also, don't hide anything like this next time."
When Gouzi heard this from behind, he suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Speaking of which, there is indeed a girl in the Zhen family who is somewhat similar to Ke Qing.
But he left only two, naturally not just for this reason.
The two he specially left behind were the most outstanding girls in the Zhen family.
Originally, I wanted to give Feng Yibo a surprise.
Unexpectedly, the flattery slapped the horse's leg.
Underestimating Feng Yibo's disgust for traitors.
Fortunately, he thought quickly and used Ke Qing as an excuse to cover up.
Unfortunately, before he could relax, Feng Yibo said this.
Apparently he had read his mind.
Fortunately, I still saved him face and only gave him a light blow.
He didn't say anything serious.
Then a large group of people arrived at the new city between the turns of cars and boats.
At the entrance of Heilong Mansion, countless people were waiting to greet him.
As soon as Feng Yibo got out of the car, he fell in worship and said in unison:
"Welcome the Black Dragon King!"
Qin Keqing and Wang Xifeng came together to salute and said crisply:
"Congratulations, sir!"
Feng Yibo nodded and immediately saw the child in Wang Xifeng's arms.
Unable to bear it, he reached out and took it, smiling and saying:
"Is Chi'er already that old?"
"Whoa!"
Being hugged by his biological father whom he had never seen before, Feng Chi burst into tears.
