Those who are anxious to exchange are those people who don’t have much money and want to have new coins.
And the real big players are still watching in the restaurant... waiting for these bastards to exchange some first, and when they realize that the court is running out of new coins, they only need one person, even if all the old coins in everyone's hands are concentrated, so A large exchange...
As long as the court does not have enough new coins, the exchange ratio between old and new coins will not be sustainable.
Zhao Xi was also in a restaurant not far from Fengfu Yamen at this time. The restaurant was booked.
Today, many restaurants near the government office were booked, and no one paid attention to this one.
However, whether it is Zhao Xi or the instructors and commanders of the guard camp, they all have to come in disguise... After all, they are all very eye-catching at this stall.
"here we go……"
Lu Gongzhu had only come back a few days ago, and he knew His Highness the Crown Prince's overall plan, and he didn't know anything about it.
Once there is a shortage of new coins in today's exchange, it is very likely that the exchange of old and new coins will be in an unimaginable ratio.
The most important point is that no one knows how many rich people there are in Bianliang City.
Zhao Xi didn't know for sure, he was just making an estimate.
The reason why the country is short of money is because the quantity of coins produced by the country is far from enough to create the variety and value of goods.
Also, except for monks and Taoists who melt coins and make statues, people like to hide money too much.
Therefore, the country is always short of money. It should be said that the currency is not enough for circulation.
After nearly half a year of planning, he just wanted to dig out the hidden money... It should have worked.
After all, comparing old and new coins, people just like to hide money, and they also like to hide new coins.
Before and after, nearly one million guan of new coins had been released. For today's exchange, Zhao Xi originally prepared 5 million guan. Just in case, he also specially reserved another million guan for Bianliang... …
If a merchant wants to uncover the secrets of the imperial court, the most suitable exchange point is the one at the government office.
He has to keep an eye on it so that he can take emergency measures at any time.
Zhao Zhen had no intention of dealing with political affairs today. He intended to call his ministers over, but he was worried about being affected by their remarks.
So, I simply took a rest and spent time in Ciming Palace, waiting.
"How about it, my companion?"
Zhao Zhen didn't know how many times this was the first time he asked old Chen Lin. There was no way, he couldn't go out to take a look. He relied on the news from the Imperial City Division. Before Chen Shi, he had already started asking questions.
Empress Cao and the women in the East Palace were also worried... not only worried about Zhao Xi, but also worried about the piles of old coins they had exchanged in their hands.
Whether you earn money or accompany you depends on today.
Not only the inner garden, but also my natal family and everyone close to me. It is said that they are supporting His Highness the Crown Prince, but it is more like joining together to make a share of money.
It doesn't matter if you make money, but once the new coins are insufficient and the old coins fall into your hands, it will not only be Zhao Xi's reputation that will fall, but some friendships will also be affected.
All anxious.
"Back at the official's house, the exchange has already started. There are no surprises...it's just...most of the people who just go to the exchange point to exchange new coins are coolies..."
The information was just like this, and Chen Lin didn't dare to hide it.
What does this mean? Is it possible that those wealthy families, those merchants, those landlords and wealthy people no longer have old coins?
How is this possible? Even if you look at your own home, you know this is impossible.
"They are waiting until these people have exchanged the new coins and the court has insufficient new coins. They will go to exchange them to confirm the fact that the new coins are insufficient and continue to increase the exchange ratio of old and new coins."
That's it, Zhao Xi once talked about this approach with Tao Niang.
So what? Those who stay in Ciming Palace can only stay and wait.
Zhao Xi didn't have such serious thoughts, Su Song withdrew after not staying for a while and went to the money prison. Even if it was a new one, he could make as much as he could.
This was what the guard camp and the others had discussed. It was necessary to prepare more new coins, just to be prepared. So, we simply asked Su Song to keep an eye on the money and food.
They had also eaten the snacks at noon... not many people were in the mood to eat them, but Zhao Xi had the opportunity to taste the snacks outside the palace... He didn't eat any of them alive, they were all eaten by Wang Zhongzheng and Li Xian. of the remainder.
There's nothing I can do about it. I can't explain it to anyone. At least I ate some food outside the palace...that's all.
"Your Highness, they are here..."
When Mr. Lu said this, he seemed a little angry.
It was already half an hour later, and the exchange point was no longer crowded, and the Imperial Guard was no longer even needed to maintain order.
After all, the day was almost over, and no one said that they could not exchange for new coins. No matter how much it was, the court did not bargain. It was the same at all exchange points.
Since the court really has no shortage of new coins, there is no need to spend time waiting here. Anyone who has no trivial matters... can go back if it is time. Anyway, there is plenty of time, and the court has no restrictions.
The key is that we don’t have much money.
There were fewer people, so I thought today would be over. But unexpectedly, as the prince said, this group of merchants...
Zhao Xi has been waiting for this.
I leaned on the window and looked out. At the same time, the windows of the restaurants around the government office were all open... and I didn't have to worry about the cold wind blowing.
Zhao Xi seemed to be able to wait for bursts of chuckles and mutual congratulations.
Seal the victory in advance?
It is indeed worth celebrating. Look at the bullock carts being carried one by one, and listen to the sound of the cart wheels touching the floor tiles. As the cart wheels bump, you can hear bursts of clattering sounds... They are all loaded with copper coins. .
Is this your last resort? The oxcarts at this time were just like that, without much high backrests. Even if you look at the oxcarts one after another, you can’t even see the tail. In fact, they can’t hold much money.
"In the official's house, in Kaifeng's government office, there are teams of oxcarts on Fuqian Street. The detective's reports should all be in copper coins..."
Unexpectedly, it happened like this. Chen Lin felt that it was difficult, and he had the intention to let Bingjingwu and the Detective Department disguise themselves and rob the money!
Even if I am eventually executed, I can still bear the burden for His Highness.
But he was worried that making his own decisions would mess up His Highness's plan.
"Ah...do you know how many there are?"
Zhao Zhen really couldn't sit still at this time. He stood up suddenly as if he was about to go out...
"In the official family, Xi'er has her own plans."
Even though Empress Cao persuaded her men like this, she herself felt uneasy at this time.
Alas, if I had known better, I shouldn't have been greedy for this little profit. If the five or six companies had lost some money and saved some new coins, they could have helped Xi'er at this time.
Now, he can only rely on himself, no one can help him.
Xi'er has her own plans... Zhao Zhen is convinced of this, at least Xi'er has always proven this in the past.
But this time...this is almost all the merchants in Bianliang!
At the same time, the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall also received the news...
When they heard that there were almost no tails of the bullock carts, the husbands could not sit still.
This is an imperial edict and not a personal act of His Royal Highness.
For this edict, the princes went to the New Money Supervisor and saw the craftsmanship of the coin making. They thought there would be no trouble, but if the merchants from Bianliang formed a gang...this would be a bit troublesome.
