C45 Ying Yang and Yuan Datou

The Taibai Top's scenery was as good as ever. However, tiger chick, who came here for the first time, was not in the mood to watch the beautiful spring scenery outside the camp. Her and Xiao Letian's eyes were already attracted by the two small furnaces.

The red one was the burning Coal, the white one was the scattering silver, and the flowing silver water emitted a demonic light. On the ground were rows after rows of iron models. The specially made iron pots were carefully poured silver water into the iron models as the two hulks carried them.

This was Xiao Letian's true plan to amass wealth. The so-called opening of business in the Oceanic and among the foreigners was just a front. On the surface, this was to conceal his real plan of making money.

This was Xiao Letian's wondrous gathering method that he gave to the Taibai Top. According to the thinking of the people of Qing Dynasty at that time, forging coins on his own was not a rare occurrence. In the history of the Qing Dynasty, there had been many instances of people forging coins on their own.

There were even anti-Qing organizations such as the White Lotus Cult, the Heaven and Earth Society, etc. They secretly forged copper coin s to amass wealth, and Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had even released their own coins. However, what Xiao Letian did not have such a low Technology content, he wanted to fuse the two silver coin that had the most impact on the China and the one that the Republic of China had on the China.

The casting process used Yuan Datou's, and the shape used Mexico's Eagle Ocean. The two currencies that had a profound impact on the history of the China's silver coin finally merged together in Xiao Letian's hands.

The Mexico Eagle Yang referred to the new coin used after the independence of the Mexico in 1821. It was created in 1823. The picture on the front was the shape of the Mexico's National Emblem: an eagle with its wings spread wide and a snake in its mouth, standing on top of a cactus that grew out from the rocks of the lake. The lower part of the design is surrounded by oak and laurel leaves, symbolizing strength, loyalty and peace.

During the time of the late Qing Republic, the number of foreign silver dollar that entered the China was the largest among them. According to the statistics of the Qing Dynasty's two years of investigation, there were about 1.1 billion foreign silver dollar in circulation at that time, of which one third was the Mexico Ying Yang. It could be seen how much this foreign currency had a far-reaching impact on the China's finances. The quality of the Mexico's Eagle Ocean was better than that of other foreign silver dollar. Furthermore, it had not changed for many years, so people were willing to use it.

As for Yuan Datou, the future Popular, he was even more familiar with it. The most classic scene was when people held the silver coin's core and blew on it, and then when it was next to their ears, they could hear a clear buzzing sound. This kind of unique design technology almost became Yuan Datou's trademark.

The weight of one Yuan Datou was six and a half percent of Cuping's Pure Silver. It was cast with a ratio of nine to one. After casting, the total weight was seven and a half points. Don't even think about the advantages of releasing Currency s in taxes. Just that 10% of copper was already an extraordinary interest.

In Xiao Letian's mind, he imagined that the land of China from north to south, from west to east, was filled with falsified eagles. Every time Shop Owner received a falsified eagle Yang, he would put it to his mouth and blow on it.

"Zhan Musi! "Zhan Musi..." Both Shi Dakai and Fan Sai Manager woke Xiao Letian, who was drooling and fantasizing. "This is the first Eagle Ocean of the day. Is Fan Sai Managerson not addicted?" The two teased.

How could Xiao Letian give up on this opportunity? He touched Tie Fan and found that it was no longer scalding. He raised a piece of iron and threw it onto the ground. With a plop, the two pieces of iron instantly separated, revealing the silver coin s inside side by side.

"My Baby money! With your father, I won't be bullied anymore …" Xiao Letian had truly lost his composure. He knelt on the ground and broke off all the silver coin s one by one. He held them in his hands as if he was holding his own child. Beside him, there were dozens of wood box s surrounded by eagles. A hundred of them were wrapped in red paper, it looked extremely joyous.

"How many silver coin s can we produce per day? "How many kilograms of silver should I use?"

"Right now, I can smelt nine thousand silvers, one thousand copper, and I can forge thirteen thousand silver coin. Originally, I wanted to open two more stoves, but we don't have many scattered silver, there are only 300 thousand two Silver in the whole mountain stronghold, it's simply not enough … " Fan Lian said regretfully.

Shi Dakai was a little upset now. "If we knew that mister had such a brilliant plan, we would have stored up more silver and saved less jewelry …"

Xiao Letian shook his head: "No worries, there is nothing else in the Daqing, there are plenty of scattered silver. I don't believe that anyone would refuse to exchange for their silver with such a good silver coin." After saying that, Xiao Letian blew on the silver coin and a melodious buzzing sound came out, causing everyone to be elated.

"Killing pigs and sheep, a feast is starting today in the mountain stronghold …" Xiao Letian roared, and the entire Taibai Top erupted in cheers.

Money is the guts of a man. What he said was absolutely true. Xiao Letian had officially explained his economic layout to Shi Dakai and Fan Lian during the feast.

The people sitting on the table were all true elites. At the beginning, they didn't really understand Xiao Letian's method of forging coins. It was only when Xiao Letian was drunk and explained all the twists and turns that they finally understood.

Forging money could make money, and everyone knew this principle. However, many people did not know how to make money. Firstly, it was impossible to use pure silver to create silver coin. In order to increase the hardness of silver coin, some other hard metal would definitely be added in. For example, Yuan Datou added a tenth of the copper inside.

Compared to the price of Silver, the cost of copper was almost negligible. Then, this tenth of the profit would steadily be earned.

The second point, was to analyze the ancient fire consumption system. The word 'fire consumption' first appeared in the Ming Dynasty, and was created by the famous Zhang Jizheng. It was also one of his whipping techniques that allowed the silver to enter the Country's tax system, and finally become a member of the Currency family.

With silver, they had to forge them. People could not only sell them for large silver ingots. Normal Popular would be rich if he had a few scattered silver. And as the county Government s, the majority of the silver that they collected through taxes belonged to scattered silver.

In order to transport them easily, in order to submit them to the Capital City, the first tier unit s would need to undergo a smelting process, in order to turn the scattered silver into big ingots. And during the smelting process, there would definitely be loss, and this loss was called fire consumption.

Very quickly, the officials of the Ming and Qing dynasties discovered the advantages of fire consumption gathering wealth. It was entirely up to them to decide how many silver one or two of them would gather. According to the most official standard, a couple of silver would have to pay three coins, and there was no need to talk about corruption.

In the ancient times, sixteen taels of a catty was already a fifth of the principal for the clearing officials. This was a 20% tax increase for Old people. As for those greedy officials who accepted the fire consumption from people, they didn't have any other use other than forcing people to rebel.

Xiao Letian wanted to create more silver coin, so he needed more scattered silver. Of course, Xiao Letian had his conscience, he wouldn't accept the fire consumption for 3 coins, but he should at least accept the 2 coins. This was a 12% pure profit.

"Manager Fan, my good Prince, what kind of business is able to earn 22% of the profit without any effort? This is a business with no capital!" Do you know why I bribed the officials of the entire Yi County? I was just preparing for us to absorb a large amount of silver from the common people. With the protection of this group of people, how many silver can we absorb? "

"Although the Yi County is small, but every year, there must be a tax of 200 thousand silver, and these silver will all be our raw materials for forging coins. Adding on the accumulated silver s, I can say that the taxes are tens of times more than a year. Don't the landowners of Daqing like to bury silver s in warehouses and fields? "old shopkeeper, think about your brother …"

Fan Lian angrily nodded his head. His branch brother had dug ten big holes in the silver vault, and had hidden over a million silver, but this time the branch family had only given him 100,000 silver, and even said that he was taking care of Brothers. According to the rules, he should not give him a single cent.

"A Yi County has accumulated a fortune of more than three million silver taels among its citizens. However, there are more than ten million silver that have been hidden in a superior county like Jiangnan! Think about it, if we were to create these silver, how large would our money be? "

"Moreover, in the future when we have the sea Ship, we can directly purchase silver ore from Japan, Mexico and even USA. At that time, the cost of forging coins will be even cheaper!" Xiao Letian suddenly stood up, raised his wineglass and said.

"I, Zhou Tie, will wave my hand and hundreds of millions of silver dollar will fall from the sky like rain. Let's see if you have the guts to accept them …" gray beardanggang and old shopkeeper were agitated by Xiao Letian to the point that their eyes turned red and were about to go berserk. Only Shi Dakai was relatively calm.

"Military Advisor, even if we can make so much money, how can we spend it? With such a large amount of funds rushing to the civilian population, a large amount of silver would be scattered and scattered. The number of Qing Dynasty's fire consumption would decrease drastically, how could the Manchu's Tarantula not be aware of it? Even if they were greedy like Heshen, I'm afraid they wouldn't dare to turn the ready-made silver dollar back into a silver dollar treasure, right? "Then they will have to force people to rebel again …"

Xiao Letian shook his head and let out a burp, "Zhou Tie is overthinking things. Didn't I say it earlier, I want to set up a business in Tanggu, and I want to pull Americans and Liu Yisi in to give him 10% of the shares." You think the court dares to investigate Foreigners's Oceanic? "

"With our imitation of the Mexico's Eagle Ocean, I'll let you know the truth. There are more than a million of these silver coin in the south! It might even be a hundred million, who in court would dare to look into it? "

"Not only that, we also have other protective umbrellas. We are not misers, so no matter how much money we earn, we will have to spend it all. We want hundreds of thousands or even millions to buy off the officials at the base level. We want to nibble away at a county. Yi County, Zhuozhou, Gongan, Langfang, Xiang He … As for the counties around the Northern Capital City, we will devour them one by one. "

"If they want money, we'll give them money. If they don't, we'll take their lives. Anyone who gives their loyalty will write a blood letter for Laozi, just like how wuxianlian transformation did with her fingerprint. We'll make them look like the Daqing's mandarin seed on the surface, but in private they'll all be our lackeys …"

"Laozi doesn't need to be a magistrate. Can't we use a greedy official?" Back then, Eighth Brother Yin was even able to pull out a little court between dryad and Yong Zheng underhand. I don't believe that we don't have that kind of ability … "

Xiao Letian was really drunk, to think that he would reveal his plan in front of the people at the table. Luckily, this was Xiao Letian's study, only Shi Dakai, Liu Lang, Fan Lian, tiger chick, and Xiao Hexin's trusted aides. If Brothers and the others outside were to hear about it, it would be a complete blowout!

Even so, Xiao Hexin's, Wang Huaiyuan's, and Sima Yun's eyes were already shining like electric bulbs. They were completely shocked by Sun Tie's heroic spirit, causing their blood to boil.

"Do it!" "It really feels good following Military Advisor …" The young man immediately stood up. In the end, Shi Dakai and Fan Sai Manager were a bit older and steadier.

"Let mister rest. If there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow. tiger chick, please help mister sleep …" "All of you, shut your mouths. Just now, Military Advisor said it was a top secret. If you dare to reveal anything, don't blame me for not showing mercy …"

At this moment, Xiao Letian was snoring thunderously.
