Chapter 759: Responsibility as a time traveler(1/2)
Hearing everyone's analysis, Yang Fan smiled without saying a word.
Yue Changfeng, who thought he had made a comeback, was a little annoyed and asked, "Do you think I was wrong, or do you have the trick of a Jedi counterattack?"
Seeing that Yang Fan was still drinking tea leisurely, Old Man Yue patted the table and said angrily: "What are you thinking about? Why don't you tell me quickly?"
At this time, Li Tai and the others also looked at Yang Fan with anticipation, wanting to see how he solved it.
Knowing that he couldn't continue to tease, Yang Fan explained: "Didn't you say that, it's just that there are not enough coins."
"What you are worried about is that those aristocratic families refuse to take out their coins, but take out some irrelevant land and houses, making the Royal Bank of Tang a joke."
"Don't forget that although we lack copper coins, we do not lack silver at all. Fusang can provide tens of millions of silver every year. With these silver as storage, we can print at least tens of millions of silver worth of paper."
"In addition, even if the fields and houses are not worth much, we should not lead to inflation if we print banknotes at an equal amount of 1/3 of the value."
"When the next year, the silver from the Shijian Silver Mine will be shipped, and we can replace it and turn it into paper money."
"At the same time, I have reported to Your Majesty that in the future, transactions and consumption in Jiangnan can only be used with the banknotes issued by the Royal Bank of the Tang Dynasty, and the transition period is three months."
"Think about it, if these aristocratic families know that the coins they store in their homes are likely to be unusable in the future, do you think they will ship them to cash out? Or directly pay the auction fee."
Yue Changfeng was confused and looked at others with a confused look on his face. He had no idea that there was a silver mine with an annual output value of tens of millions of chunks.
It’s not that the old man is ignorant, but that the silver mine is far away in Fusang, and if it weren’t for those who pay special attention to it, there would be no idea.
Moreover, even if you know, you would not have thought that Shijian Silver Mine can produce more than tens of millions of guan each year.
In fact, with the large-scale development of Shijian Silver Mine, Yang Fan had already foreseen that such a large amount of silver flowing into the market would inevitably lead to a decline in the price of silver.
Because this is determined by market laws.
Yang Fan had already thought of another way to solve this problem.
It is to take advantage of the establishment of the Royal Bank of Tang Dynasty to store these silvers as equivalent currencies and use them to create equivalent banknotes.
In this way, even if those aristocratic families want to interfere and refuse to take out the money they have, they can handle it easily.
In addition, Yang Fan has another purpose, which is to unify the currency.
In the feudal society in China for thousands of years, due to the lack of unified financial institutions, the long-standing diversified currency system and mixed circulation of multiple currencies has been led to a long-standing situation.
The establishment of the Datang Royal Bank avoided this phenomenon.
Once the banknotes are implemented in Jiangnan, they can be implemented well.
Convenient and fast way of using currency will surely gain the support of the people.
Of course, this economic operation method is too profound for people at this time.
Therefore, Yang Fan did not explain in depth.
After all, you tell a group of ancient people that money with labor value will not cause inflation.
Who knows what inflation is?
However, although Yang Fan only explained roughly, everyone present was smart.
Although I don't understand the inside, I feel it makes sense.
But Yue Changfeng was obviously very dissatisfied. After all, Yuezhi has always claimed to know everything and how can she easily admit defeat if she knows everything?
So Old Man Yue gritted his teeth and retorted again: "Hmph, although you have a way to solve the problem of coins, you think that those aristocratic families will hand over the property and land so easily. Humph, you think beautifully. In the Ten Dao of the Tang Dynasty, except for Jiangnan Dao, do you dare to send troops to take back all the land and houses? Even if you think, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would not allow you to do this."
Yang Fan smiled disapprovingly and said, "I am the governor of Jiangnan Road. What else does it have to do with me?"
"What does it mean? Do you just let other families in Taoism cheat you?" Yue Changfeng looked confused.
Yang Fan did not answer, but looked at Li Tai.
At this time, Li Tai looked at Yang Fan with a shocked look on his face and looked at him in disbelief.
He was a little confused about why Yang Fan gave all the money bidding by other Taoist families in the Tang Dynasty to the court and asked him to send it to Chang'an in person.
It turns out that it was a pit burying here!
This guy has long since obtained the money, land, and houses.
This is why he gave this part to the emperor and pulled the emperor into the water.
Yang Fan’s meaning is very obvious.
He has earned money and has a contract. If you, the emperor, have the ability, take back the money. If you don’t have the ability, don’t blame me.
Li Er has been a poor man over the years. Will he give up facing such a big temptation?
Obviously impossible.
Then, in order to recover the money, Li Er will definitely take back the money.
If those aristocratic families dare to resist, Li Er would definitely have a reason to raise the butcher's knife.
Yang Fan's plots are linked one by one, which is simply terrible.
When Li Tai told Yang Fan’s plan, Yue Changfeng ran away in shame.
Can't you afford to offend?
But he couldn't understand why Yang Fan was so sinister at such a young age.
What he couldn't understand even more was that he was very knowledgeable and knowledgeable, so why couldn't he beat this kid every time?
Of course Yue Changfeng would not know that he was facing a time traveler standing on the shoulders of a giant, and this time traveler also had golden fingers.
Yang Fan did not stop Yuechangfeng's departure or comfort him.
He knew that the old man was very strong and might come to him to debate other issues tomorrow.
To be honest, Yang Fan still admires Yuechangfeng very much.
Unexpectedly, this old man could see so many problems from just some data, and his ability was definitely not low.
You know, Shangguan Yi, Di Renjie, Pei Xingjian, these people are famous masters throughout the ages, and they have not found any problems!
Although several people may still lack the accumulation and training of experience, their abilities are absolutely not bad.
However, seeing Shangguan Yi and others looking at him admiringly, Yang Fan couldn't help but pretend to be deep and took a sip of tea.
In fact, he was so beautiful.
It’s so cool to install a fork in front of the great people over the years!
Although Li Tai knew that Yang Fan had his own reasons for doing everything, he still couldn't figure out some things, so he asked: "Brother-in-law, why are you targeting aristocratic families like this? And every time he left his strength to make these worlds spit out the fields and houses. Why is that?"
Indeed, Li Tai was a little curious.
In Li Tai's heart, he felt that the aristocratic family could never be eliminated.
Because if you destroy this aristocratic family, another aristocratic family will surely rise, which is inevitable.
Of course, Yang Fan also knows this truth.
Just like in the past life, even in modern times, the aristocratic families were not destroyed. They just lurked in another way, not as high-profile as in ancient times.
As a time traveler, Yang Fan knows.
Although aristocratic families cannot be eliminated, their power can be weakened.
Only by extremely weakening these aristocratic families that can influence the demise of the dynasty can we promote social progress better and faster.
Therefore, when Yang Fan heard Li Tai's words, he happened to touch Yang Fan's sensitivity in his heart.
In his opinion, Li Tai was just quibbling for these aristocratic families.
The depression and anxiety that have been accumulated for a long time have completely exploded!
Yang Fan stood up and looked at Li Tai and said word by word: "Your Highness, do you think I like to target the aristocratic family on purpose? Do you think I just want to ask for more land and money? You are wrong!"
"If it's just for money and fields, the money I have in my hands is enough for me to buy hundreds of thousands of fields."
"I am now a magistrate of the border and a son-in-law of the current dynasty. I also want to be a playboy, enjoy the glory of the imperial power without restraint, and enjoy the money beauty in everything I want."
"But I can't. I want to do something for the Tang Dynasty, because I found that if the Tang Dynasty did not make changes, it would end like every dynasty in history, which I don't want to see."
Yang Fan stood proudly by the window, his firm face looked majestic when shining with sunlight, but his tone was filled with sadness, full of concerns about the future of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Tai was about to say something, but Yang Fan muttered to himself: "Your Highness, do you know why the dynasty is going to be destroyed? The main reason is that the land is concentrated, wealth is concentrated, the people are unable to feed themselves, and displaced, which will naturally cause the rise of the lower class people."
"Even if the Tang Dynasty looks extremely powerful now, if it has no mass base, it will die in the second lifetime like the Sui Dynasty!"
Yang Fan was indignant and poured out the pain in his heart.
Indeed, don’t he want to be a rich man and enjoy his life safely?
Of course I want to!
But he can't!
No one knows better than him how much humiliation this nation will suffer in the next thousand years.
Whenever the words "Yangzhou ten days", "Nanjing Massacre" and "Fourteen Years of the War of Resistance" come to my mind, Yang Fan can't help but think of those miserable and tragic scenes!
In order to reduce the suffering of Huaxia, Yang Fan worked hard to change the current situation of the Tang Dynasty.
Because he knew that the Tang Dynasty was still saved at this time and had enough foundation to avoid all these tragedies.
