Chapter 83 Song Renzong, who issued the first banknote (Part 1)
After personally experiencing the "Zhenyuan Alliance", Madoudou and Zhiguoguo started their next time and space trip.
The wooden door brought Ma Doudou and Zhiguoguo to the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song after Emperor Zhenzong of Song. What will they encounter this time?
Let’s follow the wooden door and find Madoudou and Zhiguoguo!
The bustling crowds and bustling street markets, Madoudou and Zhiguoguo discovered that they were in a bustling city when they opened their eyes.
However, the downtown here is different from what they have seen in Chang'an in the past, in Luoyang or in Bianjing.
When they heard the people around them talking about their familiar dialects, the brother and sister happily went up and pulled the people to ask questions.
After some inquiry, they found out that they had arrived in Shu.
Seeing the people coming and going hurriedly heading forward, Ma Doudou led Zhiguoguo along the crowd to watch the fun.
"I heard that the government issued Jiaozi, which is much more convenient than bringing copper coins on it. Let's see if we can add some Jiaozi on it. In the future, there is no need to put so many copper coins on it."
The man who was talking looked like a businessman, and there was a man who was with him chatting quietly.
After listening for a long time, Ma Doudou understood the whole story. It turned out that the place they came from was Chengdu during the Northern Song Dynasty. The historical event that occurred here was when the Northern Song Dynasty court printed and issued Jiaozi in Sichuan, a kind of banknote that replaced copper coins.
"This is thanks to the sixteen wealthy businessmen who have a solution. If they hadn't printed and opened a Jiaozi shop for exchange for copper coins, the court wouldn't have thought of this. But this is better, the officials' business is more at ease than the people's business."
The merchant said a few more words to the people who were accompanying him, but he also knew that too much would lead to mistakes, so when he spoke, he looked around cautiously.
As a result, he didn't expect that Ma Doudou's ears were about to be on the back of his accompanying person, which made the talking businessman a little angry.
"Where did the wild children come from? They are so unruly? Isn't this a gentleman doing without permission from others?"
Madoudou didn't expect that someone would push him and Zhiguoguo, making his miserable ears press on others' backs, which inevitably made people misunderstand.
Ma Doudou hurriedly apologized sincerely to the businessman, bowed and bowed, only to kneel down.
Seeing that Madoudou was so sincere and the businessman was still aggressive, Zhiguoguo felt a little worried about Madoudou.
"Brother, you don't have to pay so carefully, you're not going to blame. There are too many people here. They want to whisper, why do you have to whisper here? Brother, what they are saying is not whisper."
Zhiguoguo put her hands on her waist and her little face was full of anger. She just couldn't allow others to bully his brother.
Since her time and space travel, Ma Doudou has been protecting her, so this time Zhiguoguo wants to protect his brother, and she wants to stand up for her brother.
"Little girl, I'm pretty good at it! At a young age, do you want to be upset for your brother? But we have reason. When we are doing business, it was clear that your brother was wrong. Why are you still trying to make a fuss about it?"
The businessman didn't expect that Zhiguoguo, who was beside Madou, would stand up to protect his brother. This scene made him unable to help but think of his sister.
Once upon a time, his sister would stand up to support him and hold him up when others bully businessmen.
