Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Chapter 1154 Different Flying Money

"Welcome Your Majesty."

Li Shen brought Li Shimin into the stock exchange, where the person in charge and all the staff stood in several rows to salute and greet them.

Li Shimin asked Li Shen to take him to see how the certificate was made.

"Is this the paper produced by your Ji Wang Mansion?"

Picking up a voucher, Li Shimin asked curiously.

"Yes, this is a kind of paper produced by our Ji Wangfu after continuous experimentation and research.

It is thicker and stronger than writing paper, and you can feel its texture by just touching it.

The ingredients here are all brought back from the southernmost part, and no one else can imitate it.

Even if they do the research, it will take at least a year, by which time we won’t be using this kind of paper anymore.

I made six kinds of paper from different materials and changed them every once in a while.

Even the officials here didn’t know about the change before it happened, which can greatly avoid fraud.”

Li Shen patiently introduced it to Li Shen, saying that this was the crystallization of wisdom of their Ji Wang Mansion.

“Well, that’s good, this way we can prevent them from smuggling.

When the time comes, if we find anything without proof, it will be considered smuggling.”

Li Shimin nodded and said.

"May I ask Your Highness Prince Ji, what should be done if a merchant loses his voucher?"

At this time, Changsun Wuji came over and asked.

"There are indeed such cases, and we have made corresponding plans. To put it simply, we will compensate them."

Li Shen answered.

"Old Ten, what if the other party pretends to have lost the goods? Then we can issue a receipt. Then we can ship two batches of goods.

Isn't that smuggling?" Li Tai grasped the key point.

“Well, we have found a solution to this as well.

Aye, please look."

Li Shen took the list and pointed to the row of numbers below.

“This is the number that Prince Ji’s Mansion is using. It is recorded in a simple way, and the number on each voucher is different.

This was printed a second time during printing, with the numbers printed on, although it was time-consuming and laborious.

But this is the only way to ensure that everything goes well.

The replacement voucher will not be issued immediately, but will be issued on the next day. You must pass the checkpoint within one day.

Otherwise the certificate will be invalid.

We have records of their previous credentials here, and we will send the numerical numbers of their previous credentials to the checkpoint by express horse.

Anyone found with this number will be arrested immediately and all goods will be confiscated.

We do not reissue vouchers for all transactions. We only reissue vouchers for transactions within three days.

We are not responsible after three days, and we charge a fee, plus a 10% handling fee.”

Li Shen recounted the process in detail.

This was also his idea. A receipt would be issued after the transaction was completed. If it was lost within three days, it could be reissued, but after three days, it would be ignored.

You didn't leave for three days after the transaction. Do you have any intention?

Or you can just wait until you leave to get the voucher.

"Is it the same for the Tang people?" Li Shimin asked.

"Oh, the Tang people are much more lenient than this, mainly because there is nothing in Tibet worth smuggling to the inland of our Tang Dynasty.

However, you still have to pay a small handling fee.

This is also to make them pay attention.”

What Li Shen just said was directed at the Tibetans. The Tang people would definitely not do this.

Li Shimin nodded, looked around, asked some general questions about the process, and then followed Li Shen to the first money house in the Tang Dynasty.

Money houses are more magnificent than exchanges; after all, they are places where money is.

There are single rooms and a lobby service area.

"I heard that you gave a lot of money to merchants. Is that true?"

I don't know why Li Shimin asked about this matter.

"Replying to Aye, it is true. Merchants deposited their money here, and they returned to Chang'an with light luggage. They could withdraw the money at the money houses in Chang'an with the help of flying money.

This way they don’t have to worry so much on the road, saving time and effort, and it’s also very safe.”

Li Shen nodded and admitted.

"It is very convenient, but do you know that your flying money is different from others?" Li Shimin looked at Li Shen seriously and said.

"Different?" Li Shen was stunned, then said:

"Aye, of course it's different, we use the latest anti-counterfeiting methods.

Including paper, ink, format, and seal, all are unique to the Tang Dynasty.

It would take several years to imitate it.

Just like vouchers, within a few years, the bank's flying money will change its style. "

Hearing what Li Shen said, Li Shimin shook his head:

"That's not what I'm talking about."

"It's not this matter?" Li Shen was a little confused. If it wasn't this matter, what else could it be?

Seeing Li Shen's confused expression, Li Shen reminded:

"Your flying money has no name."

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Li Shen asked in confusion.

“No name!!”

“No name!!”

Li Tai, Li Zhi and Zhang Sun Wuji opened their mouths in surprise.

Only Li Shen looked confused. There was indeed no name before his flight, which meant there was no signature.

Anyone who brings flying money can exchange it.

This is also to make it easier to distinguish it from the deposit certificate.

There was another reason, Li Shen made the check according to his memory.

He always imagined himself taking out a stack of blank flying money, throwing one to someone else, and telling them to fill in the number themselves.

When Li Shen thought of that time, his blood boiled. What was the point of rewarding copper coins or gold bars?

Giving you a flying coin and letting you fill it out yourself is the feeling he wants, and this is the image of a rich man in his mind.

"Don't you understand the meaning of this yet?" Seeing that Li Shen still didn't understand, Li Shimin asked in disappointment.

This child is sometimes extremely smart, but sometimes he is so confused that it is really speechless.

He had made it very clear, but Li Shen still didn't understand what he meant.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, privately setting up a currency is tantamount to treason."

Qin Qiong couldn't bear to watch it anymore and reminded him.

"Privately set up currency?" Li Shen looked at Qin Qiong in confusion, but then he screamed:

"Private coin!!"

"That's right, Your Highness Prince Ji. Privately setting up a currency is tantamount to treason, so Your Highness Prince Ji must find a way to make amends."

Qin Qiong nodded.

Li Shen mechanically turned his head and looked at his father:

"Aye, did I set up a private coin?"

"There is indeed a suspicion of privately setting up coins."

"Aye, that's not right. This shouldn't be considered a private coin, because the foundation of flying coins is still copper coins."

Li Shen shook his head and denied it. The basis of his flying money was copper coins, which could only be regarded as a proof of deposit at most.

Flying money is worthless originally, it only becomes money when it is exchanged for copper coins.

Private currency should be the creation of a completely new currency to replace the original currency.

These are two different concepts and cannot be compared.

Privately minting coins is a serious crime. How could Li Shen make such a low-level mistake? Does he think his life is too long?
