Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 2092: Price!
Chapter 2151 Price!
In modern times, financial sanctions are, in a sense, the most severe form of economic sanctions. The United States often imposes financial sanctions on other countries, which has a very strong unilateralism.
Since World War II, the U.S. dollar successfully defeated the British pound and became the global currency hegemon. The U.S. dollars in circulation in all countries in the modern world are issued by the U.S. Congress (but Congress will never have to pay back because it is impossible to pay off), and the world’s oil settlements use U.S. dollars uniformly, so U.S. dollars have the right to price oil. In addition, the large wealthy Americans have been operating the capital circulation channels around the world for hundreds of years. Through this dollar, they can almost achieve remote control of the global economy.
Li Zexuan launched Tang Yuan and founded Yanhuang Bank. His original intention was to facilitate the consumption of teachers and students in Yanhuang Academy. When this monetary system matures, he will promote it to the entire Lantian County, and then Promoted to the entire Datang, his ultimate goal is indeed to let Tang Yuan replace copper coins and become the official currency of Datang. Finally, with the prestige of Datang in the world today, Tang Yuan will be promoted to all countries in the world and become a world circulation. currency!
In that way, Datang’s financial system will affect the world. At the same time, some domestic inflation and economic crises can also be passed on to other countries in the world. In this way, even if other emperors after Li Er are incompetent, At the very least, with a strong financial system, there will be no situation where Chongzhen's poor even at the end of the Ming Dynasty could not even come up with the military salary!
Therefore, it can be said that once the financial system that Li Zexuan envisions is completed, the Central Plains dynasty will become more and more profound. To put it in a more layman manner, even if there are several prodigal emperors later, it is not easy for the Central Plains dynasty. There is a danger of being annihilated by foreign races! Because the family has a solid foundation!
In Li Zexuan's initial expectation, it would be impossible to build a complete and even global financial system without the efforts of several generations, especially in the absence of financial talents in ancient times. Fortunately, as soon as Tang Yuan and Yanhuang Qianzhuang appeared, they received the full support of Li Erhe and the court. This starting point was much higher than Li Zexuan expected!
In addition, the elites of Yanhuang Academy headed by Li Ke assisted Li Zexuan to establish the Yanhuang money shortage and promote the Tang Yuan. The establishment of the Tang Yuan currency system is more than a little bit faster than Li Zexuan initially expected!
To this day, almost all of the three hundred and sixty states of the Tang Dynasty are covered by Yanhuang Banks, and the emerging currency of Tang Yuan has been accepted by more and more people. Not only that, with the efforts of Li Zexuan last year, Li Second, it was decided to establish the Shibo Division, vigorously develop sea trade, and started frequent sea trade with Southeast Asian countries. In the course of trade, the currency inconsistency brought great troubles to merchants from various countries. In exchange for goods, you can either directly barter, but these two settlement methods are actually inaccurate and even more inconvenient, and some disputes and friction will occur!
The emergence of Tang Yuan completely solved this trouble of businessmen from various countries, because this currency is not only convenient to carry, but also has the credibility "endorsement" of the Tang court. Yuan can purchase all kinds of commodities in the cities and towns of various states and counties in Datang, and all commodities are clearly marked and settled in Tang yuan. Both parties will not suffer. There is no need to directly give others golden beans, golden leaves, etc., as before. The settlement method is not precise at all!
Because of the contradiction of this settlement method among the people, Tang Yuan can be said to be born at the historic moment, and it was widely welcomed when it first appeared, especially the business people!
To Li Zexuan’s surprise, when some overseas businessmen brought Tang Yuan back to their own country, their king found that Tang Yuan was not only easy to carry, but also exquisitely crafted and extremely difficult to forge, so he began to promote Tang Yuan in his own country. Yuan, the Wangs of many small Nanyang countries have sent people to get a large number of rare and exotic treasures to Tang Yuan to exchange them for Tang Yuan, because compared to the Tang Dynasty, their small countries are more prone to turmoil and power change. In other words, once someone commits a disorder, when they run away, it is impossible to escape with carts of gold and silver jewelry, right?
The exchange of treasures into Tang yuan is not only easy to carry, but also preserves its value. After all, it is "endorsed" by the credibility of the Tang court. In case they encounter a domestic rebellion and have to flee, they can also take Tang Yuan to escape to Datang. With those Tang Yuans, they will still be able to live and live comfortably in Datang!
So, nowadays, Tang Yuan is not only popular in Datang, but also widely used in overseas trade. What's more, some small neighboring countries of Datang directly use Tang Yuan as their own domestic The official currency, the currency system based on Tang Yuan has begun to take shape!
The nine surnames Zhaowu who do business in Datang have long been accustomed to the existence of Tang Yuan and Yanhuang Qianzhuang, especially the nine surname Hushang who do business in the Tang Dynasty. They often need a lot of Tang Yuan when doing business on weekdays. Now, Li Zexuan has let the Yanhuang Bank sever all business ties with the businessmen of the two countries, which is considered to have broken one arm of the businessmen of the two countries!
Although Tang Yuan cannot be exchanged in Yanhuang Bank, they can exchange Tang Yuan from other merchants~IndoMTL.com~ But Yanhuang Bank has not only exchange business, but also loan business!
Businessmen need a lot of cash if they want to expand their business scale, while ordinary merchants have a lot of fixed assets, but the cash may not be much. At this time, they need to find someone to borrow money! The lending business of Yanhuang Bank is tailor-made for these merchants!
Nowadays Datang commerce is also gradually prospering. The Jiu-surnamed Hushang does not have an absolute advantage in Datang, especially those businessmen represented by members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce. Their scale and strength are constantly expanding. Jiu-surnamed The living space of Hu Shang in Datang is being compressed step by step. If Yanhuang Bank no longer lends money to merchants in Kang and An, it will be sooner or later that they will be annexed by local merchants in Datang!
Therefore, Li Zexuan’s “financial sanctions” are not cruel to the Hu businessmen!
Li Ke is talented and intelligent, and soon wanted to understand the key points in Li Zexuan’s words. He pondered for a moment and replied with a telegraph: "Thank you, Mr. Those Husbands! Since they dare to be disadvantageous to Qingque, Ke will definitely make them pay!"
After sending the telegram with Li Zexuan, Li Ke put away the telegraph, got up and left the room, and ordered the guards outside: "Get ready, go to the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce!"
