Vol 2 Chapter 145: Gongsun Hong's Wonderful Journey (6)

Chapter one four five: Gongsun Hong's wonderful journey (6)
It cannot be said that the ideas of the ancients were wrong. This kind of inference is generally the evaluation of their descendants after reading the history books.
However, from the standpoint of the ancients and using their thinking to think about it, you will find that many mistakes are actually not mistakes.
But once the timeline is lengthened, the shortcomings of short-sightedness will gradually be revealed, and finally become a big mistake that lasts forever.
In fact, everyone's eyes are black, of course, this does not include the special case of Yun Lang.
You can only speculate on the future with limited conditions at hand. This is a very test of wisdom and experience.
Yun Lang thought that this was not much different from gambling.
Gongsun Hong was too surprised along the way. When he came to the money-making workshop, he was not too surprised by the new and strange scenes here.
If Yun's industry can't surprise him, he will be disappointed.
The main components of bronze coins are copper and lead. After Yun's re-smelting of copper coins, they naturally obtained these two metals.
The melting point of copper is much higher than that of lead, so it is easy to separate them. Lead is melted first, and copper is melted later. As for the remaining impurities, Yunlang thought that no further separation was necessary.
Gongsun Hong watched Yun's melting away those miscellaneous money, and then poured copper water on the template to make irregular copper plates, and then put them into the furnace again to burn. When the copper was about to melt, the copper plate Take it out and tuck it between two continuously rotating wheels. When the copper plate reaches the other end, a more standardized copper plate appears, and then put the copper plate into the fire, and then insert it into another pair of gaps. The smaller rollers squeezed continuously in the middle, so after three times, a copper plate matching the thickness of the copper coins appeared in front of Gongsun Hong.
"This is a copper plate with copper six, lead three, and impurity one. It is bronze money. I originally wanted to cast brass money. As a result, the cost was too high and I had to give up."
Gongsun Hong looked at the hot copper plate in front of him and asked, "How much copper is in the miscellaneous money?"
Yun Lang smiled bitterly: "Having half the copper content in miscellaneous money is not bad."
"In addition to the fire cost, wouldn't Yun's make new money lose money?"
Yun Lang knocked on the copper plate and said helplessly: "Fortunately, one new money is enough to spend five miscellaneous money, so the new money made by Yun's is also called one as five money."
Gongsun Hong frowned: "In this way, wouldn't your Yun's make money have five times the profit?"
Yun Lang shook his head and said: "Not so much. The reason why miscellaneous money is called miscellaneous money. First, the weight of this thing is very light. Second, there are many impurities. Third, the casting is rough.
The weight of Yun's one-time five-money money is comparable to that of Qin Banliang, which is twelve baht, and the four baht of Linmiao that is popular in my Han, four baht in Yiyang, four baht in Dong'a, four baht in Rongyi, and four half in Cai, etc As the name implies, only the three-component of Yun's one-for-five, plus the copper in Yun's one-for-five money is higher than the privately-made money, therefore, there is no idea to deprive the people.
Northwestern Polytechnic believes that after the first emperor unified the six countries, he determined the unification of laws, weights, measures, currency, and writing, which was the most important achievement in his life.
No less than his achievements in unifying the six countries.
He also abolished the old money of the six countries in the later period of the Warring States period and improved it on the basis of the two and a half money of the Qin Dynasty and Qin Dynasty. Half a half of the money in the circular square hole was passed throughout the country, ending the chaotic state of the six countries' currency shapes and weights.
This is very beneficial to the promotion of people's livelihood.
On the other hand, my great man has still used Qin Banliang since the founding of the People's Republic of China, but the government has not continued to cast new money, so that private money has become popular.
Twelve half baht is getting smaller and smaller, and some are as small as less than a centimeter in diameter, weighing less than two baht, and shattered immediately.
This is a typical way of exploiting the people, but the government has no intention to stop it, and let the people complain.
Yun, as his majesty's courtier, naturally sees that his majesty's people are being exploited, so it is only within his own power that he can forge some new money to compensate the people. Yun has no intention of profiting himself. "
Gongsun Hong watched the copper plate being heated again and sent it under a cylinder that was constantly hitting up and down. After listening to a series of slight clicks, the pieces of copper fell from the hole below.
Then another craftsman took the copper element and went under another iron column, and placed it. Then, a young and powerful craftsman kept pressing the handle, and pieces of exquisite copper elements appeared in front of his eyes.
Gongsun Hong looked at Yun Lang with a long sigh and said, "Yun's work is intertwined and intertwined. The interlocking link is breathtaking.
In order to make new money, you don't hesitate to re-gold gold for the honorable people, deliberately causing the cheap wind of gold and precious copper, and then you took the opportunity to use a large amount of gold to purchase private copper coins, and finally melted the private copper coins to re-create Yun's When five money.
Yunlang, let's talk about it, did you really receive no benefits in this process? The old man is not talented and thinks that he still has some knowledge of human nature.
The old man would never believe that you would operate such a complicated thing in vain without benefit. "
Yun Lang chuckled and said, "There are naturally benefits, but ah, Yun's profit comes from gold refining, not copper refining.
Does Shaofu understand what Yun Lang said? "
"Use rich people's money to compensate people?"
Yun Lang smiled and said: "I prefer to call this method of robbing the rich and helping the poor. Of course, just taking advantage of the rich does not reduce their wealth.
The rich get satisfactory gold, and the value does not decrease but increase. The people have real good copper coins that can be used. There is no need to worry about being cheated by others. When your taxes are collected by your majesty, there is no need to collect any real taxes. The joints omitted in the middle are a huge sum of money.
For things that are good for everyone, why should Shaofu deliberately break it? "
Gongsun Hong stared at Yun Lang with a staring voice and said, "Where is the best of both worlds or even the best of the world?"
There is no wood without roots and water without source. If one party gains, then one party will inevitably lose.
You now tell me that everyone has benefited, whether it is wealthy people, civilians, or your majesty, the court, and even you Yun.
I just want to know, where does everyone's interest come from? "
Yun Lang shrugged his shoulders irresponsibly: "I don't know. Anyway, those who brought me gold to smelt are very satisfied with the quality of gold and have no opinion on the quantity of gold.
Yun ’s used the new money to buy food, and the grain merchants readily accepted it. Yun ’s used the new money to pay the husband ’s wages, and the husbands were also very happy. Yun ’s made the new money to go. After paying the autumn tax, the government also accepted it with great satisfaction.
Since no one said that he was pitted by the Yun, everyone was satisfied, and everyone felt that they had not suffered.
This is such a good thing. Your Majesty has a coin with stable value that everyone is willing to accept. Why do you keep asking?
In this world, not everything has an answer ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Is it the rich and the rich who are pitted? What did you just say about robbing the rich and helping the poor! "
Gongsun Hong held a large handful of warm copper coins and asked with expectation.
Yun Lang smiled and said: "Today, there are still wealthy people who have brought gold and asked me to re-smelt them, and then marked their unique mark!
How can you say that I pit them? "
Yun Lang firmly believes that with Gongsun Hong's knowledge of currency, he still can't guess the mystery of it. Once he didn't know what real currency was, and secondly, he knew nothing about political economy, Third: He did not know that once the value of the currency did not have a fixed target, it would become countless flowers.
Without getting virtual currency, stocks, and futures out of the big man, Yun Lang feels that he is already the kindest person in the world.
Yun's is always short of money. He also hopes to get another gold coin and silver coin in the future. He will thoroughly determine the currency system of Dahan. Now, how can he show all the cards?
"It seems that it is only now that you have the real secret of Northwestern Polytechnic. Is this one called out of nothing?"
Yun Lang didn't say that Gongsun Hong became more itchy and unbearable, so he had to aimlessly guess.
"The real secret of Yun's lies in the land, in cultivation, in breeding, but not in these trivial things."
"Small things?" Gongsun Hong asked seriously.
"Small things!" Yun Lang answered solemnly.
