After understanding Li Shimin's worries, Li Min smiled slightly and then said something softly.
"Father, with the establishment of the bank, the five surnamed Qiwang and other aristocratic families will no longer have the ability to control the economy of the Tang Dynasty."
This sentence moved Li Shimin.
Li Shimin took a deep look at Li Min, and then said: "Min'er, just do it with confidence. Father will support you behind the scenes. If you encounter difficulties that you can't solve, Father will help you."
You solved it."
Done!
With Li Shimin's promise, the bank's problem is settled.
Li Min then said to Li Shimin: "Father, I believe that in addition to copper coins, an alternative currency should be introduced. For example, silver. One tael of silver can be exchanged for one thousand copper coins. In this case
, the cooperation between Yinzi and banks can completely eliminate the current situation of lack of money."
Li Shimin said helplessly: "Yin'er, why hasn't my father thought of the method you mentioned? It's just that the amount of silver reserves is too small to support circulation."
It is a fact that the Tang Dynasty was short of silver.
In fact, it was not just the Tang Dynasty. In ancient times, almost all dynasties were short of silver.
It was not until the Ming Dynasty that silver was regarded as the main currency in circulation.
Li Min couldn't help but said to Li Shimin: "Father, you can save money now. After a few years of accumulation, you can match it with banknotes. There won't be much difference."
Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded and said: "This, it makes sense."
…
After walking out of the imperial study, Li Min went to the Hanxiang Hall and had a conversation with Concubine Yang before leaving the palace.
After walking out of the palace, for a while, Li Min had no place in particular to go.
Now Princess Qin Mengxin has followed him to Yizhou and is still staying in Yizhou!
Therefore, to him, Nuoda's Prince Shu Mansion was just a luxurious house, not a home.
When he came back in the past, Li Min would always get together with Cheng Chuliang and his friends.
But now, Cheng Chuliang and the others also followed him to Yizhou City.
For a while, there was really no place in particular to go to.
Now Li Min didn't want to go back home, so he just wandered around Chang'an City.
Chang'an City is still prosperous and lively.
It was even more lively than when he left.
Well, if nothing else, take the cloth sold by Zhonghua Trading Company as an example. Chang'an City is a transit station.
Ever since Changsun Wuji killed a group of traders who were hoarding goods last time, no one dares to do this anymore.
In fact, it's not just cloth, many products sold by Zhonghua Commercial Bank will be transited in Chang'an City.
After all, Chang'an City was the political, economic, and cultural center of the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, with the rise of Yizhou City and the opening of the train between Yizhou and Chang'an City, Chang'an City has become more prosperous and lively.
After leaving Chang'an City for more than two years, Li Min couldn't help but feel that things are different and people are different when walking on the streets of Chang'an City again.
When Li Min stepped onto a quiet street again, he suddenly felt as if someone was watching him.
Suddenly looking back, Li Min found that in front of a wealthy family, there was a young woman holding a child, feeding the child while staring at him intently.
There was an indescribable look in the young woman's eyes.
Li Min turned around, and their eyes met in mid-air. The young woman looked a little panicked, but she did not change her gaze.
And Li Min also recognized this young woman.
She was clearly Cuihua, who was the original tofu seller and was called Tofu Xishi by Cheng Chuliang.
I still remember the first time we met, it was Cheng Chuliang who teased her and Cuihua said bad words to Heng Chuilang.
As for himself, there seems to be a hint of love hidden in his eyes.
We met her many times after that, and I gave her advice and asked her to buy beans when the price was half of the usual price.
As a result, their family made a small profit.
Later, when he was selling lottery tickets, he directly gave her a second prize of one million dollars.
This one million yuan suddenly changed their family a lot.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for more than two years, when we met again, she was already married and had a child.
Although he and Cuihua never even exchanged a few words, let alone friendship.
But for some reason, Li Min felt a hint of sadness in his heart when he looked at Cuihua holding her child.
Li Min smiled and asked: "Miss Cuihua? How are you doing recently?"
Cuihua bit her lip, nodded and said softly: "Your Highness, King of Shu, the daughter of the people is quite good. I wonder how about you, Your Highness?"
Li Min chuckled and said, "I am living a good life, is this your home?"
Cuihua nodded and said, "Yes, this is my home. Your Highness, come in, have a rest and have a drink of water?"
At this moment, I heard a man in the room shouting: "Cuihua, who are you talking to? Invite someone home quickly!"
Li Min shook his head and said: "Miss Cuihua, don't bother me. I'll go around the front again. You can do your business!"
After saying that, Li Min raised his feet and walked forward.
Cuihua held her child in her arms and watched the King of Shu go away blankly.
It wasn't until King Shu walked around the corner and couldn't see his figure that Cuihua wiped the corners of her eyes and went home with her child in her arms.
Inside the room, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes asked Cuihua: "Cuihua, who were you talking to just now? Why don't you invite someone in for a drink of water?"
Cuihua looked at this young man, pursed her lips and smiled and said: "He is a neighbor of my parents' family before they moved. He used to take good care of our family. We chatted with him for a few words. If he has something to do, he will not come to our house.
, and save money on your food!”
The young man laughed dumbly and said: "Cuihua, look at you, your neighbor is my neighbor. It's good to come here to eat every day! Don't you still know what I do to you?"
Cuihua had a smile on her lips, lowered her head and spat, and didn't pay any attention to him.
…
While walking on the street, a poem suddenly came to Li Min's mind.
People are like those who come after autumn and have letters, and things are like spring dreams that have left no trace.
After walking a street, he shook his head with a smile, threw away the melancholy in his heart, turned around and walked towards the Prince of Shu's Mansion.
Early the next morning, Li Min took the train back to Yizhou.
After returning home, Li Min asked Wu Meiniang to prepare for opening a bank. After the Chinese New Year and the beginning of spring, the bank would probably be able to go public.
And now, the time has come to the twelfth lunar month, and the New Year is about to begin.
Li Min decided to organize another winter hunt the year before.
In fact, there are already many tourists who come here specifically for winter fishing.
They even asked one after another whether winter fishing would be organized this year, and if so, on which day would it be organized?
Winter fishing, of course, needs to be organized.
Not only did Li Min organize it, he also organized the winter festival to become a unique festival in Yizhou City.
From now on, it will attract a large number of tourists to Yizhou City every winter.
