Datang: My Peerless Talent Has Been Exposed

Then when the prince casts silver into silver coins or silver ingots, it is naturally impossible to use all silver. After all, silver is relatively soft, so it is generally mixed with some other metals in a ratio of [-] or [-].

Then the minted silver coins were handed over to the imperial court to offset the money from the silver mines!

This coming and going earned all the fire consumption that was mixed with other metals and the court's normal regulations.

The so-called fire loss is actually the normal loss in the process of metal smelting and casting. After all, even in later generations, ten percent of the silver will go in and ten percent of the silver will come out. It is nothing more than reducing the loss a little through various technical means.

But how could Zhang Nuo take a fancy to such a small amount of money?

That's right, in the eyes of everyone, this small amount of money is small money. Although it is stable and long-term, the profit is really not big. They don't believe that Zhang Nuo will use that kind of badly watered down product to tarnish his reputation.

However, if you don’t want to do this, what is Zhang Nuo doing for minting coins?

Changsun Wuji had a lot of contact with Zhang Nuo and was close, so he simply raised the question directly, and Zhang Nuo was unambiguous, and directly took out a brand new silver commemorative coin of later generations and slapped it on the table.

"If it's this kind of silver, do you think it can be circulated in the market? Of course, this king made this portrait at will, and it will definitely have to be replaced when the time comes!"

Everyone looked at the smooth and translucent silver coin in front of them, and was a little confused. Isn't this damn a bit too much? With this kind of coin, who would be willing to use the old silver ingot and the dead copper coin?

You know, the monetary system these days is all supported by precious metals.

The people at the lowest level use copper coins every day, of course, one penny for one penny. For a slightly larger transaction, it is naturally a string of copper coins, which is often called consistent money.

And if you go up, you will score points, there are broken pieces of silver, and there are silver beans smelted in the homes of the more particular wealthy families.

And if it goes further up, there are silver ingots and gold with imprints one by one.

Basically, gold rarely appears in daily transactions. After all, the price is too high, and the current smelting technology is not up to standard. But it was a big loss.

Therefore, various copper coins are the most circulating on the market at present.

Of course, copper coins alone are also particular about this thing. After all, there are not many copper coins in the Tang Dynasty, so when many people mint copper coins privately, they add various things to it. Whether those low-grade copper coins can still be called copper coins is a matter of debate.

With those bullshit things in place, let's look at the silver coin that His Highness King Qin produced in front of him, hehe, I am afraid that as long as this silver coin comes out in the market, no one else will recognize it.

It would be a good thing for the imperial court if the currency in the market could be unified, but there is also a problem, that is, the imperial court is very embarrassing.

No matter how Zhang Nuo is the king of Qin, no matter how noble his status is, he is not an emperor and cannot represent the entire Tang Dynasty. If all the coins circulating in the market are minted by Zhang Nuo, the palace of the king of Qin, where will the face of the Tang Dynasty be placed? .

Everyone can understand this kind of thing, but they don't know how to say it.

No matter what they said, it didn't feel right. After all, Zhang Nuo was allowed by Tang Lv to do this, and Zhang Nuo did it for the convenience of transportation. Does it have to be said that his skills are too good?

That's not bullshit.

But Li Shimin didn't care at all, he hooked Zhang Nuo's neck and said with a smile,

"My dear brother, why don't you work so hard on the minting of silver coins, and then it will be regarded as an official? Of course, you must not let your hard work be in vain. The Ministry of Accounting must wear it down for you!"

Changsun Wuji and the others nodded quickly when they heard the words. This matter is reliable. If the silver coins are nationalized, there will be absolutely nothing wrong with it. As for supplementing the loss of His Highness King Qin, it should be done.

As far as the craftsmanship of the silver coin in front of me is concerned, it is right to spend some money, not to mention that the treasury does not need to pay for it, but a part of the produced silver coins is given to Zhang Nuo.

It didn't matter to Zhang Nuo, he was actually thinking about the issue of transportation capacity, and then he pulled out such a big series of things.

As for the casting of silver coins, it is actually quite simple, especially with a steam engine, as long as the power of the steam engine is in place, it is not too simple for a large stamping machine to cast this kind of silver coin.

At that time, let Lao Li arrange a good manpower, carve a few suitable engraving plates, and then put them in the mint, smash them, and the silver coins will definitely be produced on an assembly line like rain.

As for the promotion, let alone, with Zhang Nuo, the number one businessman in the world, as long as he uses the new type of currency for settlement, it will hardly take long to promote it.

After all, the throughput of goods and the amount of funds here are really huge, not to mention the promotion of the imperial court.

So Zhang Nuo directly nodded and agreed to this matter. Anyway, he didn't even get Fusang at the moment.

But on the side of the war, you have to make calculations.

At this time, the generals who had been listening for a long time can finally talk. They are really not interested in the coins and so on just now, so they have to say that they understand.

But first of all, these generals affirmed Zhang Nuo's previous strategy. After much deliberation, Zhang Nuo's idea was the most reliable.

Chapter 759 Competition among veterans

In fact, these veterans also have their own careful thinking. In Zhang Nuo's arrangement, the role of the navy is nothing more than the transportation of materials and personnel in the early stage, and the attack on the shore.

In the following battles, it basically acted as a transport captain, while the air force was responsible for reconnaissance, bombing, and beachheading from the beginning.

Those who really fought hard on the battlefield still had to rely on the soldiers under their hands.

In fact, these veterans have been feeling agitated recently. The Tang Dynasty is booming, so they can see it, and of course they know that today is a good time.

Moreover, neither His Majesty nor His Royal Highness the King of Qin can afford to be idle. It is obvious that they want to conquer the world and expand their territories.

People who were born in the general family are good because they don't get credit for not fighting. They are not afraid of the risk of fighting on the battlefield, but they are afraid that swords and guns will be sent to Kuma and sent to Nanshan.

But recently they have become a little anxious, that is, Zhang Nuo not only formed a new navy, but also formed an air force single-handedly.

Originally, these veterans didn't care much about these things. After all, they also knew that the sea was extremely vast. If there was no navy, then they, the landlubbers, wouldn't be able to swim across it.

Besides, warships at sea must be used, so they are also happy to send their children inside.

But after the Air Force was formed, they felt a little uncomfortable.

It's not that they don't have children to go in. After all, the family has a big business and no one has any relatives or old friends. As long as the boys are in good health and obedient, Zhang Nuo has always been good at taking care of these people.

After all, not to mention anything else, just talking about the origin of family education is much better than that of ordinary people, at least they know what orders and prohibitions are, and these youngsters are very likely to be able to punch and kick, and some of them have good conditions and have learned a few pistols Great, this is much better than ordinary people who only rely on bravery and brute force at home.

But it is precisely because there are more children in the family that they have a deep understanding of the two newly established troops, but the more they understand them, the more frightened they become.
