Our island owner is always playing dead

Therefore, in the final analysis, it is still necessary for the heat island to develop its economy before it can attract more people.

Although there are difficulties ahead, there are so many orders as hope. I believe that everyone can overcome this difficulty together and develop the heat island better.

At the end of the dinner, Ye Limo said: "I hope that everyone in foreign trade, after returning home, will synthesize everyone's opinions and make a plan. Submit it to me for review."

The Chief Merchant hurriedly led his subordinates to reply, "Yes! Your Majesty!"

All the subordinates took their leave and left. Ye Limo looked at the peaceful night outside and thought to himself, the development of a country is always like this. Difficulties and achievements alternate. If there are no difficulties, it means that there is no progress.

The next day, Ye Limo came together, and after breakfast, he summoned Ana Zhengu.

Ana Zhengu was selected by Ye Limo to be responsible for the construction of the mint.

Seeing that the labor-sharing system has become less and less suitable for the current situation of the heat island.Therefore, it is necessary to establish a currency system to ensure better and healthier economic development.

Anazhengu has indeed been busy during this period, so after Ye Limo called, he also came to see Ye Limo with the work report during this period.

Ye Limo asked: "Ana Zhengu, how is the matter of the Mint going?"

Ana Zhengu said: "Your Majesty, I have already discussed with Mr. Hagen about the location and construction of the mint, and the design drawings have been drawn. Mr. Hagen said that after the main project of the palace is completed, he will Then you can start building the mint."

With that said, Ana Zhengu handed over the site selection and design drawings of the mint to Ye Limo.

Ye Limo opened it and took a look. The mint was located in a place with an uneven slope, which seemed quite hidden, and judging from the design drawings, there were quite a lot of defensive measures.

Ye Limo asked: "Is this the finalized design drawing?"

Ana Zhengu replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, Mr. Hagen and I have visited the site several times, and we all feel that the mint can be built. Except that its natural terrain is conducive to concealment and defense , according to Mr. Hagen's research, this terrain is also conducive to drainage, and the underlying soil layer is also very solid, suitable for building buildings with high safety requirements."

Ye Limo nodded. He had no doubts about the professional level of old man Hagen.Now that old man Hagen had already made a decision, he didn't question it much.

"Is there any other progress?"

Ana Zhengu put another document in front of Ye Limo and said, "This is the pattern of the coin I designed, please take a look, Your Majesty."

Ye Limo looked at it, and Ana Zhengu was indeed doing this with great care.

The design of these coins, in addition to a picture of the front and back, also has various data, and some anti-counterfeiting details. Ye Limo thinks that Ana Zhengu really thought about it in detail, and many details have been considered.

In addition to considering their anti-counterfeiting, coins should also consider their wear and tear in circulation, storage, convenience of carrying, etc. At the same time, they should also consider their cultural and symbolic characteristics.

In addition, practicality must also be considered.It is impossible for the design of coins to have every denomination. Therefore, they need to facilitate the purchase and change in daily life, and can realize that no matter how much the price is, it can be realized by the addition and subtraction of currency.At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the practicality of the currency held by people of different economic levels.For example, the rich and the rich are definitely not willing to hold a bunch of small-denomination currencies in their hands. Only large-denomination currencies are suitable for storage and large-value transactions.The poor people do not have many opportunities to own large-denomination coins. They must also pay great attention to the price of goods in their lives. Therefore, it is necessary for them to calculate the minimum denomination.

Therefore, the design of coins is also a science, and the management of coins is even more a science.

Ye Limo looked at all the coins of various denominations designed by Ana Zhengu. Each coin has Ye Limo's head on it, and the other side is a number indicating the face value.In addition to the numbers in the text version, Arabic numerals are also included.

Arabic numerals are simple and clear, and occupy a small space, so they are very used in various places.It is also easy for people to identify.

Ye Limo appreciates the use of Arabic numerals.

Ana Zhengu also flattered Ye Limo at the right time and said: "This set of numbers is very beautiful and convenient, so it is very suitable for use on coins. People may not know the numbers in words, but this kind of Arabic numbers is easy to remember Much. Your majesty, your ingenuity, has benefited us a lot."

Although flattering, but this is also true.

Because Arabic numerals are easy to remember and easy to write, they have gradually become popular on the island.

Anyone's life is inseparable from the use of numbers.

Ye Limo said: "You think it's easy to use, that's what I'm happiest about."

Ana Zhengu said: "Your Majesty, you are not only very smart, but you also have the quality that everyone respects and admires! I think you should think of a unit for these coins."

The coins of each country have their own units. There are only one gold coin and one silver coin in common use all over the world. The units of smaller denominations are all different.

Ye Limo felt that this currency unit was fine as long as it was practical, so he directly wrote down the units next to the currencies of different denominations: yuan, jiao, cent, centimeter.

Ana Zhengu naturally praised this unit again.Ye Limo was already used to being praised by others for whatever he did, so he coped with it without any disturbance.

The location of the mint has been selected, and the coins have been designed. Another important thing is the machine for minting coins.

Ye Limo asked about the machine, and Ana Zhengu said: "During this time, the caravan is busy with the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce, so I negotiated with them, and when they go to sea next time, I will go to sea with them and go to the mainland Check it out here, custom coin minting machines."

The current coins are all made of metal, and few people use banknotes. The main reason is that the current anti-counterfeiting technology has not kept up. Even if someone wants to mint banknotes, they are worried about the risks involved.

The coins of various countries, except for their appearance, have little difference in other aspects.Especially in terms of gold coins, the most important thing is his weight.Nowadays, on the mainland, the casting of gold coins tends to have a uniform weight, in order to facilitate business exchanges between countries.

Ye Limo was very satisfied with Ana Zhengu's work during this period, and said: "Very good, I hope you will build the mint as soon as possible and mint coins. With coins, the heat island will be more convenient."

Ana Zhengu hurriedly agreed, "Yes! Your Majesty!"

Residents on the island are used to exchanging things or labor for things. However, Ye Limo intends to develop tourism. When outsiders come to the hot island and have no labor points, why should they be asked to bring a lot of things for tourism funds?Obviously not.

When Ye Limo was discussing the Mint with Ana Zhengu, Talitan and his friends had already arrived at Ye Limo's residence and wanted to meet Ye Limo.

For more than a month, Ye Limo has been busy with the affairs of the chamber of commerce. Talitan is also very knowledgeable and did not bother Ye Limo. Now that the chamber of commerce has finally passed, he and his friends have accumulated a lot of questions and want to ask Ye Limo for advice .

The two friends of Talitan are not interested in the same direction as Talitan. Talitan is more emotional about physics, while his friend, one who likes medicine, has been staying at the wounded place these days. Of course, he didn't learn much, but he observed the reactions of many patients after using cinchona, and made a lot of case logs. He imparted a lot of medical knowledge to the people in the heat island.

This man named Crom graduated from medical school and has studied systematic medical knowledge.

Doctors are very popular professions in any era and any place, and when the continental war is stalemate, doctors are even more in short supply.The government has recruited many field doctors.

However, in many cases, the more knowledge you learn, the more questions you have.After working as a doctor for several years, Crome found that there were too many mysteries in the human body that he didn't understand. He heard that the king of Heat Island knew many things, so he followed Talidan to Heat Island.

The other is Yargai, who is similar to Talitan in that he likes to observe some phenomena, but his way of thinking is different.Yargai's family is mining, so he is very curious, why metals will be extracted from those stones when they reach a certain temperature, and there are certain requirements for the temperature.

Hearing that Talitan brought his two friends here, Ye Limo felt a little headache. It was interesting to discuss knowledge with these young people, but they had too many questions.

However, they had been waiting for more than a month, and Ye Limo couldn't drag it any longer, so he let them in, and asked the housekeeper to bring snacks and tea by the way, he was still a little hungry.

After saluting to Ye Limo, the two friends sat down somewhat cautiously.

At first, they were surprised that Ye Limo lived in such a simple place.After more than a month, they have accepted such a setting. It is not surprising that a king like Ye Limo lives in such a place.The majesty of a king is not reflected in how gorgeous the place he lives in, but in whether his subjects live and work in peace and contentment.

According to the usual practice, Talitan asked Ye Limo some questions first.

This time, Talitan asked about the current popular theory on the Yerimo continent: "Your Majesty, regarding whether things can be burned, some people put forward such a point of view, because the things that can burn contain phlogiston, so they can burn, but some There is nothing there, so it cannot be burned, what do you think of this point of view?"

Ye Limo said: "Obviously, I don't agree. If there is phlogiston, can it be extracted and added to non-combustible things, so that non-combustible things can be burned?"

Talitan thought for a while, this statement is very reasonable, but how to extract phlogiston, no one can do it, so there is no way to prove that this statement is wrong.

"Do you have a way to extract phlogiston?"

Ye Limo spread his hands: "I said, I don't think phlogiston exists, so of course it can't be extracted."

"But then why are some things flammable and others not?"

"This question is very complicated to explain, and it involves the composition of matter. If I want to answer it in detail, I'm afraid your two friends won't have time to ask questions."
