--------------------------------------------
As Meng Yu's father, Meng Wu admired his youngest son. Meng Yu's thoughts and words were not like a ten-year-old child at all. His thoughts and words were more rigorous and comprehensive than those of an adult.
The invention of the Seven Dimensional Space, the invention of paper making, the invention of paper money, each of these things were unimaginable and caused a huge impact in the State of Qin.
And all these things were actually the work of his son, Meng Yu. He found it hard to imagine how Meng Yu could invent so many things at such a young age.
It seemed that his youngest son was a peerless genius that was rare in a hundred years.
Now, he no longer treated Meng Yu as a child. He fully supported what Meng Yu wanted to do.
After a moment of silence, a sharp voice suddenly sounded.
"Everyone, don't be fooled by him. He's just trying to trick us into exchanging gold and copper coins for his notes.”
"Think about it, the notes in his hand are just a piece of paper. How can a piece of paper be worth a hundred taels of gold? He wants us to use a hundred gold taels to exchange for a piece of paper. Does he really think we are stupid? The Great Qin Bank is a scam, don't believe it.”
A voice of objection rang out from the crowd.
When everyone heard this person's voice, they all nodded secretly. They also felt that what that person said seemed to make sense. If they were to use real gold and copper coins to exchange for paper money, they felt that there was a risk of being cheated.
If they couldn't spend the money, it was just a piece of waste paper. They didn't have the confidence to exchange their gold and copper coins for paper money.
Everyone looked at Meng Yu suspiciously. They wanted to see how Meng Yu would explain himself.
"He's right. A banknote is essentially a piece of paper. A banknote worth 100 taels of gold is not worth 100 taels of gold. Paper money itself has no value. The reason why it can become a currency requires our approval.”
"If all of us agree that this note is worth 100 taels of gold, then it is worth 100 taels of gold.”
"When everyone agrees that this note is worth 100 gold taels, then this note will have the property of a currency.”
"You don't have to worry about the risks of paper money. You can also use 100 gold coins to exchange for 100 gold coins. Similarly, you can use 100 gold coins to exchange for 100 gold coins at the bank.”
"I built this bank with the King's approval. In addition, I am General Meng's son and the Prince Consort of Great Qin. This bank is guaranteed by General Meng and Princess Hua Yang, so what are you worried about?”
Meng Yu explained.
After hearing Meng Yu's explanation, many people's doubts disappeared. With Meng Yu's identity and status, he would not use such a method to cheat them of their money.
Moreover, the State of Qin had also issued a law today and posted a notice to allow the use of paper money.
"That's all I have to say. If you want to exchange for paper money, feel free.”
Meng Yu did not say anything else. The emergence of a new thing would inevitably be questioned and resisted by everyone. He had already said enough. Those who believed would naturally believe it, and those who did not would not believe it no matter how much they said.
The air fell silent. Although the doubts about paper money were dispelled, no one was willing to exchange for paper money.
The surrounding onlookers left one after another, and there were fewer and fewer people in front of the bank.
Paper money was a new thing, and it was not easy for people to accept it all at once.
"Lady Meng, why don't you sell the Seven Dimensional Space anymore?”
At this moment, a woman suddenly spoke to Lady Meng.
"That's right, Madam Meng. Why didn't you sell such a good thing?”Another woman echoed.
"You can't even buy a Seven Dimensional Space now. Madam Meng, will you continue to sell Seven Dimensional Space?”Another woman asked.
Immediately, many women looked at Lady Meng, waiting for her answer.
Madam Meng felt a little embarrassed when she heard their questions. However, she acted quite gracefully and replied indifferently,"I won't sell the Seven Dimensional Space anymore.”
"That's a pity." A woman said regretfully.
Although the price of the Seven Dimensional Space was a little expensive, it was really useful.
"Prince Consort, Madam Meng is not selling the Seven Degrees Space anymore. Will you continue to sell it?”A woman asked.
"Everyone, don't worry. The Seven Degrees will continue to be sold. I will find someone to replace my mother and continue to sell the Seven Degrees. However, if one wanted to buy the Seven Degrees, they had to use paper money.”
"In addition, if you want to buy the paper produced by the paper mill, you must also use paper money to trade.”
"If you don't have any paper money, then I'm sorry, we're not selling.”
Meng Yu said in a clear voice.
Since no one wanted to exchange for notes, he had to use some methods to force everyone to exchange for notes.
The two most popular products in his hands were paper and Seven Dimensional Space. Those merchants who wanted to buy paper from the paper mill had to use paper money to trade.
If the women wanted to buy the Seven Degrees, they had to use paper money.
"Okay, I'm willing to exchange it for paper money."
After hearing Meng Yu's words, there was finally a woman who was willing to exchange the metal currency in her hand for paper money.
"I'm willing to do it too."
"I also want to exchange notes."
With the first person taking the lead, more and more people began to be willing to exchange notes.
