Vol 2 Chapter 1318: :made money

Siyang Commercial Bank has long been set up in Keppel Harbor.
When the cargo of a ship arrived, it immediately began to sell like crazy.
The real sensation is not silk and porcelain.
Is cotton cloth.
This kind of cotton cloth has good texture and beautiful flowers. What's more difficult is that its price is also low.
Such good and cheap things quickly attracted the rush of businessmen from all over the world.
In this world, anything that can be mass-produced in the workshop has a great advantage over the prolonged production of handicrafts.
Businessmen from all over the country are targeting this cotton cloth.
Because for the merchants, in addition to the good quality and low price, there is another reason why they are worth buying in large quantities.
That is the stable supply.
Many merchants also sell cloth.
But the Western at this time, in fact, like the original Ming, was almost in the stage of men cultivating women.
Businessmen want to do cloth business, first need to buy cloth.
Although they bought cloth from ordinary people at a lower price, it was even lower than the cotton cloth from the Ming Dynasty. However, the supply of goods is very scattered. Today, we may have to go a hundred miles away. Tomorrow, we may have to go to another town and village, or even buy it from door to door.
It is different in this Keppel harbour. You can have as many as you want. A steady stream of cloth is sent to the harbour, directly into the warehouse, and then directly sent to various merchants according to the order.
In this way, time and effort are saved, and the supply of goods is sufficient.
Siyang is now overcrowded with merchants from all over the world.
People speak a variety of languages, waving their respective currencies.
Siyang Trading Co., Ltd., in order to facilitate the settlement, has been placarded, and the prices of the currencies of various countries have been roughly determined. The merchants of various countries only need to bring their own currencies to order.
The currencies of various Western countries are different, some are gold, some are silver, but the coins are the same. Since the Qin Dynasty, the Central Dynasty has had a profound influence on this place, whether it is Siam or true Wa, or Malacca and other countries, their currency unit is also 'strain', using bronze or iron to make a piece of copper coins inside and outside.
As for gold and silver, most of them are also smelted into ingots.
Each currency has a different value.
And Siyang Commercial Co., Ltd. will accept all the orders.
Previously, Daming paid tribute to the trading system of various countries.
Means that countries pay tribute to their own local specialties, such as spices and rhino horns. Since then, the Ming court has given away silk and porcelain.
This is almost equivalent to a barter.
Wait for the beginning of formal trade between the four companies, because the rules have not yet been established, the two sides still adopted the way of bartering.
This makes the transaction cost extremely high, and of course, this is also impossible.
But it's better now.
The enthusiasm of businessmen is extremely high.
Siyang has arranged a lot of folks here. These folks are familiar with the languages ​​of various countries. If a merchant comes, please go into each cubicle, pour water for the other party, and then accept the inquiry and pay the deposit.
Coins of various countries started to enter the account like crazy.
Behind, Liu Huan, the head of the Siyang business firm at Keppel Harbor, was going to be scared to death.
He looked at the accounts intently, the business is naturally needless to say, it is really good.
Many of Ming's commodities can't find a duplicate sample all over the world.
But the problem lies in the fact that the entered coins are on top.
Although all countries use coins from ingots and foreign circles, in fact ... the smelting level and the level of making money are different in each country.
He squeezed a copper coin from the Siamese country, his lips still tightly pressed, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Because ...
This thing ... God knows how much copper is in it.
Eight out of ten, lower than Daming's copper coins.
But once this stuff is accumulated, there will be more copper shortage.
And their gold and silver ingots, gold content and silver content are also very suspicious.
His two eyebrows had been twisted deeply, so he found Liu Jin anxiously.
Liu Jin's face shook immediately when she heard it, and she felt a little painful.
Eventually, his fingers reached into his mouth unconsciously.
I want to go on a diet, it's a pleasure.
Sometimes I always want to chew something in my mouth.
Can't help it.
Liu Jin pressed his heart depressed, and his face was indifferent, saying, "This is my father's idea, why, do you have anything to say?"
Liu Huan quickly explained: "No, I dare not have it, it's just ... It's too lossy to go on like this, especially in the true wax country, where the smelting level is extremely low, their copper coins and gold and silver ..."
"Enough is enough, just like that." Liu Jin said lightly: "Do your business well, and the supply is still sufficient."
Liu Huan hurriedly said: "Some are not enough."
Liu Jin still didn't change his face, Shi Shiran said: "I'm not afraid, at the beginning of next month, there are dozens of ships of treasures entering the port, you just need to hurry and sell it."
Liu Huan had no choice but to nod.
Made it clear that he was going to suffer a loss, so why not worry?
He was anxiously vomiting in his heart. Father Liu was obviously stupid in reading and reading.
………………
Zhenla was as strong as two hundred years ago in the Western Ocean.
It was only a hundred years ago that Zhen La was invaded by Siam, and their army even attacked Angkor City in one fell swoop. The Zhen La Kingdom began to weaken and moved its capital to Phnom Penh.
This Phnom Penh city is where several rivers converge. A hundred years later, the city has reached a certain scale. The capital of Zala is placed on the mountainside. From this palace, it overlooks the entire city and countless tall stupas Towering, in this real wax, people believe in Buddhism, so large and small stupas stand.
In addition to the king, this true wax country has five ministers. Almost all state affairs are handled by the five ministers.
At this time, one of the five ministers, Bear Duoluo, entered the palace, and he saluted the king.
Zhen La looked at Beard Lou but found something strange.
Don't wait for the king to ask, Beardlow said: "Is this servant's shirt unique?"
The king nodded.
Beard Doro said: "This was transported from Keppel Port in Malacca, there ..."
He described the events in Keppel Harbor one by one.
The king ’s face sank down and stretched his face:
So many merchants go to buy these cloths, which is not good for the country. This is to give our wealth to the Ming people, not to mention that the cloths are so cheap, then "Who is willing to buy the clothes woven by many peasant women in the country?"
Duo Duo Lou nodded and said: "The king, the minister thought the same way." He paused, and said: "But ... King, this cloth is so good and cheap. If the king prevents merchants from ordering, is this possible?"
The king frowned, and this was indeed reasonable.
Beard said again: "And Da Ming has great momentum and lives in Shangbang. Their fleet often cruises on the airway. The bureaucratic ambassadors they occupy are next to us. If we do not buy their cloths, we will release them. What would Daming think of the prohibition on commerce? Daming has millions of soldiers, which is not comparable to us. Wang Shang also please think twice ... "
The young king thought deeply for a while, and finally nodded. At first, Daming appeared in the Western Ocean, which made him quite happy for a while.
After all, Fran had a great chance to blackmail and encroach on the land, which has caused Zhen La's alert.
But now, Fran robots are obviously more honest than before, and they are willing to have equal exchanges with Zhen La. Even in Luzon and Java, they are willing to communicate with Zhen La.
King was dissatisfied with these more and more bright people.
He expressed the worry in his heart and said, "However, if we keep our wealth outflow, this is not a long-term plan."
"Yes." Bear Duo nodded decisively. He took out a piece of material and delivered it to the king's hand.
The king pinched the material, and he was even more worried.
"Such material, there are a lot of silver."
"One foot?"
"Yes, one foot!"
"No silver, only ninety-five dollars."
Ninety-five strains ...
The king's face was horrified.
Even if it is homespun, it will cost 40-50 yuan.
He touched this superior material, and thought it must be as valuable as silk.
How can you think that selling a home is only slightly higher than the cloth?
"It's terrible to be a treasure," the king couldn't help but frown deeper.
He rubbed the cloth repeatedly with his hands, and his eyes flickered.
"Not only that, there are many treasures, in addition to fabrics, and glasses ~ EbookFREE.me ~ is worn on the eyes, there is a big clock, you can tell the time, there are four-wheeled horses, and ..."
Dorano said a lot of goods in a row.
These things are all unique to Daming, which Zhen La has never heard of.
The face of the king was a bit ugly, and said, "What do you suggest?"
"Sir, the minister heard something."
"Ok?"
"Many businessmen went to Keppel Port one after another and sent countless treasures to China through ships, and then passed through river boats to enter the capital of our country. The minister believed that this was irreversible. But ... Da Ming seemed to Good business, recognize our country's currency, as long as it is our country's gold, silver and coins, they will receive all according to the bill. "
The king is a very intelligent young man, and he immediately realized the meaning of Beard Lou.
Said, "If we continue this, our coins will be scarce?"
"Yes. The minister believes that we should step up our efforts to make money and be prepared."
The king couldn't help worrying.
Cast money, how can we step up?
Everyone knows that casting money is to increase your wealth, but gold, silver and copper are limited.
Bearded Duo took a deep look at the king and revealed cunning, saying: "Actually ... Chen Chen let the merchants deliberately take the copper coins of the Angkor period to buy goods, and the Ming people also recognized the copper coins of the Angkor period. "
This time, the king's eyes light up.
