Great fusion of heaven and earth

Chapter 117 Control of the Economy

The fat of Buddhism is no longer edible, but there is still oil and water in other places.

The wealthy families in the Central Plains are all looking at the major transformation of the Central Plains.

I don't know where it came from. The royal family of Zhao and Song said that the heaven and man brought people from the time of Feng Chan before, so let's count it.

The big transformation that started in Kaifeng is now coming to Luoyang. The wide roads, the vehicles on the road, the street lamps on the street, the electric lights and electrical appliances of each household, and daily chemical products, all these big households in the Central Plains feel novelty.

They are even more eager for the RMB in the hands of those people in Kaifeng.

Now the use of RMB in Kaifeng City is not limited to eating and reading. It has begun to buy modern household appliances from the stores set up by Sima, and the most sold are electric lights, CRT TVs, DVD players, and discs.

CRT TVs and DVD players have been eliminated in modern times, but in the Northern Song Dynasty these things were very popular. After all, these things are much more interesting than those singing and dancing.

And these things that are very popular in Kaifeng, you just buy them with real money, and they don't sell them, so you can only go to the exchange office to exchange them into RMB.

RMB can now be exchanged not only for real gold and silver, but also for silk brocades, calligraphy, painting and literature, precious wood, rare medicinal materials, jewelry and emerald jade.

The big households in Kaifeng City and the surrounding area took out their gold and silver and began to exchange them. There were not many exchanges, because most of them were household appliances, and they could be used as long as they were used.

Those merchants who traveled from south to north exchanged a lot. After all, based on their past experience, anything that was popular in Kaifeng would also be popular in Song Dynasty, so they spent a lot of gold and silver to buy a lot of money. Household appliances, want to go to other places to sell.

It's a pity that they don't know that those household appliances can only be sold around Kaifeng. If they are far away, no one will use the appliances. Electricity, they still don’t understand why it can only be used near Kaifeng, and no one has explained it to them, because everyone doesn’t know what’s going on, they only know that they bought some underground lines and connected them to their homes, and these things can be used .

Those merchants found that the electrical appliances could not be used, but those toiletries and various daily necessities that were used as extras were sold very quickly, and these things can be used everywhere, so those merchants began to buy in large quantities. Chemicals are sold elsewhere.

When they first started selling daily chemical products in other places, not many people bought them. In the Song Dynasty, it was enough to wash clothes with a handful of plant ash, a clothes stick and a river. Who would use such things as soap? , I haven't seen it again.

Those who want to make up are more accustomed to using rouge and other things. The cosmetics they bring have never been seen or used, and they don't know how to use them.

It is still the idea given to them by the exchange office, find someone to try it out publicly, wash clothes, wash hands and face, make up, etc., all have to be watched by people, use curiosity to attract people, and then let their own people buy, and buy in large quantities, You can't just buy it by one person. Many people need to buy it together, which will cause an artificial shortage of supply. After all, there are so many people who buy good things.

Cosmetics can be promoted in brothels and Chu halls, where people have the greatest demand for cosmetics, and the exchange office can also teach people to make up.

What you can't learn, it's simple, you buy a diesel generator, go out with TV and DVD, there are detailed makeup teaching videos in it, you don't need to know it yourself, there are teaching people how to make up.

By the way, why don't you sell diesel generators again? We still have diesel here. With diesel generators, you can sell the household appliances you bought before.

You see, our exchange office is always thinking of you. Why don’t you exchange more RMB, after all, people from other places don’t know the exchange rate. How about exchanging with us?
This is not selling high and buying low, what is hoarding goods, these things are very valuable in the first place, think about it, we have not yet built the infrastructure, they want to use it now and have no place to use it, want to buy it It is also unavailable.

what about you?But in order for them to enjoy the life in Kaifeng one day earlier, this is a good thing. Besides, what the emperor uses is the same as what you sell, and these can be said to be tributes.

In this way, the gold and silver in the Central Plains generally flowed to the exchange office in a deceitful manner, and a large amount of RMB was exchanged. Several billions of RMB were exchanged for hundreds of tons of real gold and silver.

Starting from Kaifeng, RMB has become a hard currency in the Northern Song Dynasty, and those businessmen in the Central Plains have also become accustomed to using RMB, and the transactions of bulk commodities have begun to use RMB.

Over there, the RMB has begun to take the role of ancient copper coins and Jiaozi, and the real gold and silver on the market in the Kaifeng area has been exchanged by Zhuo Qun, and the expenditure is also very large.

However, the gold of the royal family and court officials could not be accepted at a price of 120 taels. After all, these people knew the price of gold.

But Zhuo Qun still cheated as much as he could, and said to those people that of course I would buy your gold at a high price. After all, what is the relationship between us, but there are some problems with the quality of your gold, which cannot meet the standard of a thousand pure gold, so it is worse than our 200 a gram. In this way, Zhuo Qun exchanged ten tons of gold from the royal family of Zhao Song with tears in his eyes. Zhuo Qun cried all night under the covers. That was 20 billion yuan. In the folks, a kilogram of gold is only 2400 yuan. Big losses.

After the real gold and silver arrived, Zhuo Qun gave it to the top with a phone call. It happened that during the economic crisis, the price of gold was ridiculously high. It rose every day, and the growth rate of gold in the treasury slowed down. This time, there was a lot of gold. A hundred tons, plus a few hundred tons of silver, have made the treasury a little fatter, and the financial pressure on the upper levels has also been relieved a little bit. It can be regarded as an explanation for the 3000 billion yuan. Nor is it for dry rice.

After the inflow of gold and silver slowed down, Zhuo Qun made another request. Silk brocades, calligraphy, painting and cultural toys, rare woods, rare medicinal materials, all of these can be exchanged, and they can be purchased without limit.

Unlimited purchases of the finest silk brocades, Shu Brocade and Su Embroidery, at [-] yuan per piece.

For rare wood, only those with a DBH above 100 are accepted, and they are purchased at a high price. How much is it in modern times, then use this price to buy a tree, what a real price.

Jewelry and emerald jade, how much is a gram now, you can buy it according to the price of the gram, but you have to change the gram into two, do business, don’t lose anyone.

Rare medicinal materials, this is not what Zhuo Qun wants, but the laboratory wants to see how it is different from modern medicinal materials.

Calligraphy, painting, literature and entertainment must be appraised by a special person, and they can be purchased at a modern price of one-twentieth minus a zero. After all, they are just handicrafts, and it is already a sky-high price to pay so much.
