Xiao Yun waved his hand and said, "You took our gold coins as substitutes for the copper coins?"
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not!"
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Gold notes, now there is a system of gold notes, starting with the ritual knife, then eating, then medicine, then combining it with food, interlocking, and related to each other. Gold notes are now the most stable currency."
"Money? What is money?"
Wu Xi thought for a moment and said, "Money is money, right?"
"You can say that, but it is not comprehensive and not easy to understand. In fact, money is used to exchange for goods, any kind of currency that cannot be directly traded. Any currency that can be directly exchanged for goods is called money. "
" This... "
Wu Xi still did not quite understand.
Xiao Yun sighed and said, "Simply put, the point of directly exchanging goods is extremely crucial. Everyone knew that gold was very valuable, but if the gold before wanted to exchange for goods... Most of them need to sell gold, then use copper coins to exchange for goods. Right? Of course, there was also the possibility that some merchants could directly accept gold. That was to acknowledge gold, but during this process, gold did not become a currency. It was only because it was a valuable item that you used pearls. It was the same with jade agates and other precious items. And these things, some people recognized them, some people didn't recognize them. Moreover, there was a huge fluctuation in the price. If you said a pearl was worth 100 yuan, then it would be worth 100 yuan. Some people felt that it was worth 50 gold coins, and in the end, it could only be sold for 60 gold coins. If you use it to exchange for a 100 gold coin item, do you want to exchange for it?"
"This... If I am a merchant, naturally I will not exchange it."
"Yeah, that's the logic. Even if it's gold, it's not certain how much it's worth. However, our gold bills are different."
Wu Xi hurriedly asked, "What's the difference between gold bills?"
"Something with a stable price."
"What do you mean?"
"Look, the ritual implement is something that everyone is dreaming of right now. It needs to be bought with gold coins, and its price is fixed. For example, if the ritual implement doesn't need gold coins, it can be bought with copper coins. There are so many people who want it, and they are even willing to increase the price. Then, should I increase the price of my saber? "
"Of course it will be increased! If the other party is willing to pay more, why not? If there are few things and you want them all, then the highest bidder will get it. What else is there to say! "
"Yeah, but we can exchange our gold and notes however we want. Right? "
"Yeah."
"The price of the saber didn't increase, right?"
"That's true."
"That is to say, the price of the saber stabilized the value of gold coins! Thus, the price of gold also stabilizes, right?"
"This..."
Wu Xi thought about it carefully and realized that it really made sense.
His eyes immediately lit up and said, "That is to say, not only the knife, but also the locust meat pie. Also, those injuries medicine are actually used to stabilize the price of gold coins. On the contrary, if you want to buy it with copper coins, you will need to spend even more copper coins. Only gold coins are stable! "
"That's right, you finally understand."
Xiao Yun couldn't help but laugh.
These principles were actually quite difficult. Thinking about these things, it was as if he had fallen into a mountain of fog, and he instantly became dazed.
After all, this kind of thing... For thousands of years, or even thousands of years, even in Xiao Yun's previous life, no one could truly understand it!
The most correct person, the person closest to the truth, was merely "relatively fewer mistakes."
Wu Xi thought for a while, then heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'm relieved."
"But we can't be careless."
"Ah?"
"From the release of the New Currency to the circulation of the New Currency, to the incident... During this period of time, there will always be a process, and this process... This is the most dangerous period for our gold bills! If we don't pay attention, we will lose everything. You will lose your future, and I will also be shouldering a debt that I might not be able to repay for the rest of my life. We still owe His Majesty, so we have to be careful now. We still have to make some arrangements."
"This... So that's how it is."
Wu Xi gritted his teeth and said, "What should we do now?"
"Don't worry. I have already made a move. The setup is very good."
Wu Xi nodded, but his heart was full of disbelief.
In fact, Xiao Yun had said so much, especially when it involved the matter of money. He understood half of it.
He had no confidence in this gold coin at all.
He did not even know what Xiao Yun's goal was, or what he wanted to achieve in the end.
When doing things, there was confusion, and he couldn't do it well.
Compared to Wu Xi's worries, Zhao Wuji was really happy right now.
"Hahahaha! If this is really the plot of Xiao Yun, then wouldn't he be throwing a stone at his own feet? Humph! Does he really think that this old man wouldn't dare to use the method that he said? This old man will use it! "
The person standing below was also extremely happy as he said, "Congratulations to the old master, congratulations to the old master! Now that this move is out, the old master is destined to leave his name in the annals of history."
"This old man doesn't care about these things."
Although he said that, his excited expression still showed his current mood.
Then he sneered and said, "I heard that he made a gold coin?"
"There was indeed such a thing, and it was quite lively. That knife is really good. I don't know where he got it from. With the help of the blade, the gold notes had indeed spread among the people. Especially the merchants, they use even more. "
"Humph! He has a good plan. He wants to take the opportunity to fish up some copper coins and wait for them to rise in value? Hmph! Now that the new coins are out, he will have to spit out all the copper coins he has! "
Thinking of this, he lowered his head and thought for a while. Then, he said, "By the way, send a few people out. Tell them that Xiao Yun's vault doesn't have much gold left."
His subordinate asked in confusion, "Master, why is that?"
Zhao Wuji said in a deep voice, "Now that the new coins are out, the copper coins must return to normal. As long as the news is spread out, the people will fight to buy the gold coin. When that time comes, he will not be able to take out that much gold, so he can only use the copper coin to fill it up. Hmph, I heard that the Gold Hidden Pavilion also runs a lot. It was almost all over the various provinces and counties of the Great Qin, and these were all piled up with real gold and silver. I'm afraid that most of the copper coins have already been used by him. If everyone exchanged the gold coins back, we'll see where he can find the copper coins to fill this hole! "
The servant was shocked and immediately echoed," Master, this is really high! This move will definitely make Xiao Yun unable to recover. At that time, His Majesty will be furious and will not be able to protect his corpse. "
"Humph! This damn brat, he should have gotten his revenge a long time ago!"
Zhao Wuji lowered his head and looked at his arm. The place where his bones had been broken was still aching.
He casually took a small box from the table and took out some ointment from it. He carefully applied it on it. As expected, the pain gradually faded.
"I don't know where this kid got so many good things. This ointment... is indeed very useful. When he is locked up in the Imperial Prison and awaiting death, it will be very useful. Then think of a way to force this formula out. This is a good thing that can protect a family's wealth. "
The servant did not dare to respond and hurriedly went down to do the things that Zhao Wuji instructed.
Things like rumors were very convenient to spread. Just find a few people, find a more lively place, and speak loudly. These words would spread like wildfire, and very soon, it would spread across the entire Great Qin Country!
However, Xiao Yun didn't know about this crisis.
