Wang Jingze said: "How can we do that?
You military masters have worked so hard, but you still need 10,000 yuan a month.
General Zhang, don't worry.
We spent 50,500,000 yuan on the gold mining rights today.
I can still afford to pay the military men a little for their hard work.”
Zhang Zongling said: "We have military discipline.
In fact, it is against the rules for us to talk about protecting the mine.
However, His Majesty the Emperor knew that we have a special situation here, so he gave us the right to kill first and report later.
That's why I remembered this matter of protecting the mine. .You also know that we We have to go north.
The main problem now is food and grass.
When winter comes here, there is no way to find food, let alone going north.
So before the railway is built here, for the sake of food and grass, we I have no choice but to do something illegal.”
Wang Jingze said: "General Zhang, I won't say much else.
I accept the five hundred taels a month, but the food and grass from the Far North Military Region will be given to our Chamber of Commerce.
As long as you attack wherever you go, I will send the food and grass there." , I will never let our Ming army fight on an empty stomach.”
The quartermaster said: "Actually, the most important problem with food now is the section from Kulun to Xiaohai.
The railway has only been built to Kulun.
We have no way to wait until it reaches Xiaohai before launching an attack, so transportation in this section is a problem."
Wang Jingze smiled and said: "Our Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce is not very good in other aspects, but caravan transportation is our strength.
Please rest assured, General Zhang.
Regarding the food and grass issue, I, Wang Jingze, am boasting here.
With me, everything will be worry-free."
After Wang Jingze left, the quartermaster extended his thumb to Zhang Zongling and said, "The general is really smart."
Zhang Zongling smiled and said: "There is no doubt about the transportation capabilities of the salt merchants.
We are kind and he is kind, but remember, you have to give us enough money.
We are not short of money now, we are just borrowing their transportation capacity.
In addition, the gold mine matter is also If you want to get some snacks, it’s best to catch the person who stole the ore, so that we can show that we didn’t get his favor in vain.”
The quartermaster said: "We did not get his favor in vain.
Five hundred yuan can be regarded as an extremely low price of friendship."
The Ministry of Accounts suddenly received an income of 50,500,000 yuan.
In fact, this money did not really exist.
It was all in the bank's account.
Under this situation, Bi Ziyan and Li Zhizao advised the emperor to start considering issuing banknotes.
In the second year of Apocalypse, the emperor had ordered that the use of treasure banknotes and old copper coins should be stopped in the fourth year of Apocalypse.
The treasure banknotes soon stopped circulating, and the old-style copper coins were not as convenient as copper coins.
However, after all, copper coins had only been made for a few years, and the total amount could not catch up with the previous copper coins.
So in fact, the copper coins on the market are still circulating, but Jinyiwei has been very aggressive in cracking down on privately minted copper coins.
If they catch them, they will be beheaded and the family property will be confiscated.
Therefore, the copper coins currently circulating in the market are mainly official copper coins.
The main reason why people give up treasure banknotes is that the paper quality is poor, old banknotes are not recycled, and their value has seriously depreciated.
To issue new banknotes this time, improvements must be made in these aspects.
The Civilian Manufacturing Bureau under the Ordnance Bureau has been able to produce stiff and durable paper.
It has been folded two hundred times without obvious burrs.
Therefore, it can be used as raw material for banknotes, and the four-color overprinting technology of the Printing Research Institute is very mature.
Although it is not perfect, it can be regarded as very clear.

The maximum value of treasure banknotes is only one yuan, so the maximum face value of the banknotes issued this time is only one yuan.
In the past, the ratio of treasure banknotes to silver coins and copper coins was constantly changing, but the banknotes issued this time have a fixed face value and can be interchanged with silver coins and copper coins at any time.
In the winter of the twelfth year of the Apocalypse, the paper currency management regulations were published in newspapers and began to build momentum for the new banknotes.
In the first month of the thirteenth year of the Apocalypse, banknotes officially began to be issued.
Banknotes are divided into four denominations: one dollar, one dime, one cent, and one cent, corresponding to one dollar of silver coins, one dime of copper coins, one cent of copper coins, and one cent of copper coins.
Except for the fact that one cent is equivalent to five cents, everything else is in decimal.
All banknotes can be used to purchase items at agricultural cooperatives and can also be used when paying taxes.
The face value of banknotes is not affected by their newness, and damaged banknotes can be replaced with new banknotes or copper coins at the bank.
Once any act of counterfeiting banknotes is discovered, all participants, regardless of principal or accomplice, will be punished by beheading and all their property, including those of their family members, will be recovered.
This law is relatively harsh.
As long as you participate in the production and sale of counterfeit currency, you will certainly die, and all your family's property will be confiscated and returned to the public.
Some big families have big businesses, and it is inevitable that they will have unscrupulous children.
As long as one of them is involved in counterfeiting banknotes, the entire family's property will be confiscated.
The paper money has not yet been issued, but it has already set off a wave of separation among the big families.
This kind of thing happened once before when the official management regulations were released.
Every time someone from a big family entered the officialdom, the family would let him set up another branch, that is, separate the family.
Because when officials engage in corruption and bribery, one of the consequences is to confiscate family property.
If the families are not separated, the entire family's property may be in jeopardy at any time.
At that time, it was just a matter of separating officials from families.
Now it is no longer the problem of officials.
Anyone may be involved in the case of counterfeiting banknotes.
Then the big family can only be divided into small families one by one.
In this way, if something goes wrong, Nor will the entire family take the blame.
When Wei Zhongxian reported to Zhu Youxiao that the big family was busy dividing their families, Zhu Youxiao was stunned, and then started laughing.
This is really unintentional.
I have long wanted to break up the big family and form small families.
This will greatly reduce the suppression of human nature by the family, but I have never thought of a good way.
Unexpectedly, the issuance of banknotes has received an unexpected response.
Effect.
Wei Zhongxian asked strangely: "Your Majesty, isn't it a great family?
The old slave's family used to be sparsely populated, so there was no one to help if anything happened.
But Your Majesty seems to want them to split up."
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "This question is actually not complicated.
It's just like you think it's good to be born in a big family because you want someone to help you.
So if everyone thinks so, and everyone helps each other when something happens, then Of course, the court and the law will not be as fair as the law.
There is only one principle: help relatives and not help.
If this continues, people's hearts will become worse, so this is not a good thing. " "Another big family has a large population, and there are differences between direct descendants and concubines.
The power, the number of roles, and countless conflicts are all decided by the patriarch.
Who among them can guarantee impartiality?
Everyone cultivates public land together, so they don’t take it seriously.
This is extremely inefficient and may lead to starvation in the end.
It’s best if such a big family fails.”
"Remember one sentence, power cannot be privately owned, and property cannot be shared publicly.
Big families take advantage of these two points.
If this continues, there will be endless troubles.

So I have a big goal.
The big families in the world will become small families, and the property There must be clear ownership.
Sometimes the so-called public ownership of property is much more terrible than private ownership, because it is only public ownership in name, but in fact it is privately owned by one or a few people
