After leaving the Mint, Zhao Han was still unsatisfied and insisted on pulling Ye Shi to talk about the issue of coins and coins.

So, Ye Shi followed Zhao Yan's study and, together with Tang Yushi, talked about the new currency system that Mao Geng wanted to develop around the topics raised by Zhao Yan.

For Mao Geng to create this "round" for no reason, it always equals ten yuan. The word "round" has a good meaning. The three of them just think that Mao Geng deliberately wants to be unique, but this is a special zone. Everything seems a little special, and everyone is used to it. Therefore, Mao Geng is also expected to make some new tricks on coins. If he doesn't have something special, he will not be Mao Geng.

But Tang Yu actually settled the account for Mao Geng:

"Teacher Mao made this coin, and it seems that he would not only make money, but also need to post a copy."

When Zhao Han heard this, he was very interesting. Mao Geng has always been a winner in the business world. If Mao Geng does not have 40% of the profits in his business, I believe Mao Geng himself would be embarrassed to say when Mao Geng will be willing to post a book!

Zhao Yan smiled and said:

"Do you really understand it? We can't understand Chief Executive Mao's money. We can only wake up as if he made a lot of money. I think you must be wrong."

"I have calculated it repeatedly. For example, ten yuan is Yiguan, one tael of silver is three guan, which is three ten yuan silver coins, one tael of silver is 40 grams, ten yuan silver coins should be used for 12 grams of silver, three ten yuan silver coins are thirty-six grams, and copper is also added. After all, three ten yuan silver coins are only 1.33 grams less on the silver material, and only 10% of silver material was saved on the books, but there is loss when melting and casting, and there is also loss when grinding. With machines, molds and labor, there is no profit at all!"

Zhao Han carefully savored it and asked Tang Yushi to do it again on paper. It seemed that Tang Yushi had not calculated anything wrong, so he turned around and asked Ye Shi:

"Mr. Zhengze, Mao Geng's coins will lose money, do you believe it?"

Ye Shi shook his head. In fact, Ye Shi had questions about Mao Geng making coins in such a cost. Ye Shi also asked Mao Geng, but what he got was a vague statement. Ye Shi had to express his understanding:

"Duke of the State, Chief Executive Mao, cannot be judged reasonably. Mao Geng told me that losses are not enough. Coin making is not a profit. Since Mao Geng said that it will not lose money, I guess there may be a little profit. Mao Geng told me that in the future, the stocks on the exchange will be priced in yuan, and in the future, all stocks will be bought and sold. The new coins are very good. I think no one will refuse to exchange the silver and copper coins in his hand for the special zone new coins. After the exchange, it will be convenient for buying and selling stocks, and it is not afraid of depreciation. Why not do it! I think even if the coins are not profitable, the exchange trading is charged, so the so-called loss inside the question and the coin is not profitable, and the exchange makes it back. Mao Geng probably made this idea."

After hearing this, Zhao Yan thought about it for a while, shook his head and said:

"Mr. Zhengze, I think Mao Geng's coin finally falls on what he said about the Development Bank. The coin is not profitable, but the Development Bank may make a big profit because of this. Isn't the Development Bank going to raise shares immediately? I think it's better to find a way to occupy more shares."

Not to mention, Zhao Han's guess is the closest truth to the facts. Speaking of Development Bank, Ye Shi also heard from Mao Geng that Ye Shi thought that Mao Geng specially set up a bank to lend money, but Mao Geng denied it. Ye Shi only knew that money banks in this era were all loans for usury, which was called profit from money. Mao Geng was so laborious and laborious to make coins just to run a bank with a suspicious profit model, which is a bit incredible. If you have money, even if you don't put up loans for usury, 20% of the monthly interest rate in the Song Dynasty was already a conscientious price, so why would you do it so complicated?

Of course, as the Duke of the State said, no one can understand Mao Geng's money making, just like an exchange. Mao Geng's wealth soared overnight, and many people became rich overnight. Who would have thought of it before that! Those who were forced to pay for Lutou Soap Industry stocks did not understand the value of Lutou Soap Industry's original stocks. Many people discounted the stocks to others, and now they even regretted it. So, this matter is really unsure.

After all, the three of them finally formed a consensus that Mao Geng would never make money without making money in making new coins, nor would he make just a little money. As Mao Geng said, there is no love for no reason, nor hatred for no reason! Mao Geng would never spend much effort in making new coins for no reason. There must be a profit model hidden in this.

Unfortunately, Mao Geng was fully engaged and was busy trial-producing Zhuge crossbows for the construction of the Song Dynasty's strong army. It was difficult to disturb him, but Zhao Yan was itchy and sent someone to invite Lu Jiuyuan. He didn't know what Lu Jiuyuan, who had always been wise, thought. Zhao Yan made up his mind and left Lu Ye and the other two to have dinner together. After dinner, he would discuss with Lu Jiuyuan how to use the high-power telescope to observe the celestial phenomena at night. I believe that he would benefit a lot.

However, Lu Jiuyuan disagrees with the theory of making money by making coins, but has another statement:

"Duke, I think there are indeed disadvantages in the matter of coins. Now that the session is issued in three years, it has laid many disadvantages. Mao Geng's move is a different approach and wants to test a safe way to issue coins. Mao Geng told me many times that there are pros and cons of the session. He just wants to try a new method to see if it is feasible. In Mao Geng's words, this is called "crossing the river by feeling the stones". Anyway, the special zone is not big. If this method is good, the court can learn from it. If it doesn't work, there will be no loss."

Seeing that apart from Ye Shi, Zhao Han and Tang Yushi were still full of doubts on their faces, Lu Jiuyuan said solemnly:

"Yi Sheng wants to make money, but there are many tricks. Why do you have to work hard to make coins? You have calculated just now, and coins are not profitable at all. Perhaps having new coins is good for buying and selling stocks, and it is good for opening the bank mentioned by Yi Sheng, but the Duke has thought about it, but it is not good for the people! I dare to guarantee this, Yi Sheng is just to do a good thing, benefit the country and the people, and to the world."

Lu Jiuyuan said it was not bad. The more the Southern Song Dynasty went, the more paper money was issued, and inflation reached an astonishing level. The reason why the Southern Song Dynasty perished was that political corruption and weak military power was one aspect, and the excessive issuance of paper money was also a fatal factor. The Xiaozong Dynasty left the sequelae of the excessive issuance of paper money, but Zhao Sheng was a man who was more restrained. Issuing paper money was originally an advanced financial means, but unfortunately, the Southern Song Dynasty was not linked to gold or silver, and of course it was not linked to copper coins. What was linked to it was only the decisions of the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty, which left great troubles.

If Mao Geng issued paper money in the special zone, his credibility would definitely be worse than that of the court's school, but people might not buy it. So Mao Geng decided to issue metal coins with real gold, and Mao Geng was preparing to let the gold standard come out in advance.

A small impatience will cause big plans. In order to ensure credibility, Mao Geng would rather ignore the cost of coining and ensure real materials. For this reason, it is likely that the coin will be less than 3% in the end. This can only be done with strict cost control. If you want to share it with the bank, it would be good if you can lose money. Of course, after issuing new coins, it is obviously very beneficial to the development bank, and it is not purely setting a benchmark for the issuance of Song Dynasty coins.

After Lu Jiuyuan set the tone, it was difficult to continue to discuss the topic. Everyone present admitted that Mao Geng was still very positive. No one dared to deny that Mao Geng was just trying to do a good thing that injected positive energy into the Song Dynasty this time. But chatting is a matter of personal judgment, and in the end, it has to be said in facts. Within three months, a clue can be seen, so the topic ends here.

Zhao Han then mentioned that there are more and more new technologies in the SAR, and major technologies such as minting should be kept more confidential so as not to allow the Jin people to plagiarize.

Lu Jiuyuan took the opportunity to suggest:

"The Duke of the State has also talked with Chief Executive Mao that there are many rumors about gunpowder, mines, and cannons. The Jin people must have a spy here. When the Jin people hear about it, they will covet it. Chief Executive Mao has secretly arranged more than a dozen people to establish a security bureau, specializing in preventing and monitoring. The Duke of the State, the Duke of the State, suggested that this matter must be further strengthened. It is better for the Duke of the State to speak, select capable personnel, and expand the security bureau formed by Chief Executive Mao to prevent and monitor technology to prevent technology leakage. Moreover, the Security Bureau is not limited to the Special Administrative Region, and the entire Taiwan must prevent and monitor. Therefore, the Duke of the State suggested that this security bureau should be directly under the leadership of the Duke of the State."

After hearing this, Zhao Yan felt that this was true. In addition, Mao Geng has repeatedly said that we should pay attention to collecting various types of intelligence, and this Security Bureau can carry out the intelligence work.

That night, the moon was in the sky, and it was just right to observe the celestial phenomena at night. At this moment, Zhao Han and Lu Jiuyuan stood on the roof of the Duke's headquarters, looking up at the stars among the moonlight.

This is the first time that Zhao Han used a high-power telescope to look at the starry sky from afar, but the effect is disappointing. Zhao Han still has no feeling about what is above the moon. Not to mention that this is just a high-power telescope, even if you use a astronomical telescope from later generations, you can't see any reason.

Zhao Yan was a little confused, and then the following conversation came into being:

"Is the moon really a ball? Is it really revolving around the earth?" Zhao Han asked.

"It seems that's the case." Lu Jiuyuan replied.

"Is the earth really revolving around the sun? Will it really rotate?"

"This statement also seems to make sense. Assuming that this is true, it will be simple to explain day and night."

"So, Mr. Xiangshan has been observing the celestial phenomena every day during this period. The more he looks at it, the more he feels that what Mao Geng said makes sense. Is that true?"

"As the Duke of the State said."

"I also feel that what Mao Geng said makes sense. Mr. Xiangshan, I see that on the globe, there is a narrow land that blocks the sea route in the west. I heard that this place is called the Kra Isthmus. I heard that Chen Liang wanted to build a canal here. I think this idea is good. When my flying scissors are launched in large numbers, Tianzhu can also be regarded as the one-month economic circle of the Song Dynasty."

Seeing Lu Jiuyuan's shocked eyes, Zhao Yan smiled and said:

"I'm looking forward to that day, and I can get a round trip from Tianzhu in one month."

Lu Jiuyuan didn't know what Zhao Yan had heard, so he said no. Zhao Yan continued:

"Only by looking up at the stars, I know that the universe is vast, and I know that people are really small. The earth is already very small. On this earth, I heard that no one has sailed around the earth yet. Haha, I don't know what the distant Europe looks like. In my lifetime, I must travel around the world and sail around the earth."

Lu Jiuyuan thought to himself, Zhao Han might be turning the globe every day, and it seems that he is addicted.
