--------------------------------------------
The sudden appearance of a monk sweeping the floor in the Fuma's residence made many people in the residence feel very strange.
This was especially true for Ximen Chuixue.
With Ximen Chuixue's strength, he could not see through the sweeping monk at all. The sweeping monk seemed to be just an ordinary monk, but he gave him an unfathomable feeling.
His intuition told him that the sweeping monk was very strong, and perhaps even stronger than him.
Ximen Chuixue had always wanted to find a powerful expert to be his opponent. However, he wanted to find a swordsman. The sweeping monk did not meet his requirements, so he had no intention of competing with the sweeping monk.
Although everyone was a little curious about the appearance of the sweeping monk, they did not dare to ask since Meng Yu had brought him here.
Meng Yu had absolute authority in the Fuma Residence.
On this day, Meng Yu used his printing technique to print out a piece of paper. This was Great Qin's first piece of paper, and it had the words " Great Qin " on it, indicating that it was Great Qin's paper money.
Meng Yu wanted to set up a Great Qin Bank in Great Qin, which would allow people to deposit their money in the bank and lend money to merchants. At the same time, they would be able to issue paper money.
The Great Qin Bank was a bank that integrated deposits, loans, and banknotes.
Once the Great Qin Bank was established, it could be said that he would control the entire economic lifeline of Great Qin.
However, if they wanted to establish the Great Qin Bank and issue paper money, they would need the support of the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, and his consent.
Meng Yu immediately took the note and went to the palace. In the main hall of the palace, he met the King of Qin, Ying Zheng.
"Fuma, you're here!"
Seeing Meng Yu's appearance, Ying Zheng was in a great mood.
The paper mill that he and Meng Yu had built together had already earned him hundreds of thousands of gold taels in the past few months. Just now, Meng Yu had sent someone to deliver another hundred thousand gold taels.
By now, Meng Yu had become Ying Zheng's favorite and most trusted man.
"Your Majesty, do you think that it will be very troublesome to transport large quantities of gold every time?”Meng Yu said.
"It's not troublesome. What's there to be afraid of when transporting gold?”Ying Zheng laughed.
"Your Majesty, gold is the best currency, and copper coins are the worst. Most of the gold is in the hands of merchants and officials, while most of the copper coins are used by ordinary people.”
"1000 copper coins is a one-way coin. A one-way coin weighs about four to five catties. It is very inconvenient for commoners to carry one-way coins with them. If it is two, three, or four strings of coins, commoners will not be able to carry them with them. This is the first."
"Secondly, 10,000 taels of gold is a box, which weighs about 500 to 600 catties. It is impossible for an individual to carry it with him. If it was 20,000 gold, 30,000 gold, 50,000 gold, or 100,000 gold, it would be even more troublesome to transport it, requiring many carriages.”
Meng Yu analyzed to Ying Zheng.
"The problems you mentioned do exist, but there's nothing we can do about it.”Ying Zheng said.
"Your Majesty, I have already thought of a solution to this problem.”Meng Yu said.
"Oh? What method? Tell me."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng asked in surprise.
"We can issue paper money to replace the circulation of gold and copper coins.”Meng Yu said.
"Paper money?"
Ying Zheng was stunned." What kind of notes?”
"It's like this kind of paper money."
Meng Yu immediately handed over the notes he had printed to Ying Zheng.
"These words aren't written? How did you print these words onto this piece of paper?”
Ying Zheng took the note and saw that there were many clear words written on it, but these words were not written with a pen, so he was very surprised.
"In order to create paper money, I specially invented a printing technique that can clearly print words on paper.”Meng Yu said.
"Print? As expected of Great Qin's number one prodigy, you actually invented printing.”
Ying Zheng said in surprise, feeling rather incredulous. He did not know how Meng Yu could invent so many things at such a young age.
Paper making, printing, seven dimensions, every invention was incredible and unbelievable.
"What does the 100 taels on this note mean?”Ying Zheng said.
"There are different amounts on the notes, and different amounts represent different amounts of money. This is a 100 gold taels note, which is equivalent to 100 gold taels.”
"100 gold taels is heavy in your hand, but a note like this is very light in your hand.”
"Your Majesty, you might as well imagine that ten thousand gold taels can fill a large chest that weighs five to six hundred jin. If you want to take ten thousand gold taels away, you have to use a carriage to pull it. If you exchange this ten thousand gold taels for paper notes, that would be 100 paper notes. 100 notes were also very light in his hand. He could carry them around in his arms. Wouldn't that be much more convenient?”
"In this way, a person can even carry tens of thousands of gold notes with him.”
Hearing Meng Yu's words, Ying Zheng could not help but feel excited. This paper money was indeed very useful, and it was much more convenient to use than gold coins and copper coins.
" Moreover, casting gold and copper coins requires a large amount of manpower and material resources. The cost of casting is very high, but paper money is relatively easier, and the cost of printing paper money is much lower.”Meng Yu said.
"In that case, paper money is indeed not bad.”
At this moment, Ying Zheng's heart was already moved. He felt that paper money must be another great invention with a far-reaching influence.
