"Your Majesty, General Long requests to see you." Gao Lishi said from the side.
"Hmm? Let him in!"
When Long Junhai appeared in the Golden Throne Hall, Emperor Xuanzong said with a smile, "General Long, how come you have time to come here today?"
"Your Majesty, I have something important to discuss today." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"My dear minister, please say it. This time it is thanks to you that you regulated the entire stock market, otherwise it would not have recovered so quickly." Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said with appreciation.
"This is also the result of the emperor's governance of the Tang Dynasty's economy. Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to control the entire stock market with my own power alone," said Long Junhai.
"Haha, that's true. By the way, what important matter do you want to discuss with me this time?" asked Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.
"That's right. The currency has stopped circulating because total quantity control requires a lot of cash. Once someone withdraws a large amount of cash, it will be stretched, which will cause unrest in the entire Tang Empire!" said Long Junhai.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanzong frowned and said, "But Emperor Taizong only left behind so many Tongbao coins. Do we really need to make them ourselves?"
"Why not?" Long Junhai was very confused. As the king of a country, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang actually didn't want to issue the Datang Tongbao himself! Is this guy a little stupid?
"General Long, you don't know that the fortune of the Tang Dynasty is closely connected with that of Emperor Taizong. If I order the production of some more Tang Tong Bao coins, it will be impossible to produce exactly the same Tong Bao coins. Moreover, even if they are produced, they will not be blessed by the fortune. In this way, the people of the Tang Dynasty will not recognize this kind of Tang Tong Bao coins." Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said helplessly.
"Your Majesty, if I can solve these problems, can you order the production of the Tang Tong Bao?" Long Junhai asked.
"Can you really solve these problems? As long as you can make money that is exactly the same as the Tang Tongbao, I will be so happy! Then I will never be short of money again!" Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said happily.
"That's good. As long as the emperor gives me an edict, I will immediately start preparing to produce the Tang Tong Bao." Long Junhai said.
"Well, I will issue you an imperial decree now. However, if the Datang Tongbao is really produced, no one except you can produce it privately. If it gets out and disrupts the economy of the Tang Dynasty, I will hold you accountable!" Emperor Xuanzong of Tang also said it in advance. After all, this kind of thing is not a joke. If someone can produce the Datang Tongbao at will, what will happen?
After receiving the imperial edict, Long Junhai immediately returned to his residence. His next step was to study more carefully how to make the Datang Tongbao coin.
Datang Tongbao has different denominations, the smallest is one Tongbao and the largest is ten thousand Baochao. Long Junhai has to study the denominations of each Baochao and Tongbao, otherwise he still cannot guarantee the effective flow of funds.
It is actually very easy to imitate the printing of Tang Dynasty treasure notes, but it is very difficult to make them exactly the same.
The first thing to do is to solve the problem of material. Long Junhai started with the Datang Tongbao. Although the denomination was small, the material of this Tongbao was easy to analyze, and the subsequent problems could be solved step by step. As for those paper money and treasure notes, it was still very difficult for the time being. After all, paper money and treasure notes were a kind of synthetic material, and it would be very difficult to analyze the material.
Long Junhai consulted a large amount of information and compared many materials. Fortunately, he had a rich amount of knowledge and information in his mind, otherwise it would be difficult to analyze what kind of mineral material was used in the Datang Tongbao.
The Datang Tongbao is a coin-type currency. It looks shiny on the surface, but is black inside when cut. However, this color quickly becomes shiny again after coming into contact with the air. It should be a chemical reaction with some elemental energy in the air.
In order to further analyze the material of the coin, Long Junhai specifically knew about the enclosed vacuum space and then analyzed the material.
Finally, Long Junhai discovered that this material was different from any material recorded in any Tang Dynasty books. He wondered if it was an extinct material. But even if it was an extinct material, it should have been recorded in books, right?
Thinking of this, Long Junhai made the next guess, wondering if this material could also be an alloy material? If so, it would be impossible to find relevant information in the books of the Tang Dynasty.
Long Junhai felt that this was very possible, so he immediately collected a large amount of materials for synthesis experiments.
According to Long Junhai's guess, this material should not be too precious, because too precious materials cannot be used in such cheap currency denominations, so it should be some relatively common materials with larger storage quantities.
In this way, Long Junhai's search scope was narrowed a lot. He looked for dozens of the most common materials and then synthesized them one by one. Even so, it took thousands of experiments to reach a conclusion.
It was impossible for Long Junhai to carry out such complex anti-lock experiments alone, so he used hundreds of mechanical puppets, assigned them different tasks, and let them conduct experiments and compare them.
More than a month passed, and Long Junhai's speculation turned out to be successful. This was indeed an alloy material, synthesized using a total of four common ores, with the ratios close to one to one to three to five. If Long Junhai had not found so many mechanical puppets for analysis and experiments, it would have been impossible to find the answer in such a short time.
And this is just the first step. Although the composition of the materials has been analyzed and an identical Datang Tongbao can be produced, it is only the appearance that is exactly the same. It is impossible for it to carry the luck like other Tongbao. This is really difficult to do.
Long Junhai had been in the Tang Empire for so many years, and his accumulated luck was almost unmatched. However, he was still unable to truly control this luck and was completely at the mercy of it. So how could he use his luck? This question became his biggest concern.
Long Junhai took a deep breath. He had been having a headache studying how to use luck these days. He had to adjust his state, otherwise it would be difficult to continue his research efficiently.
"Husband, you have been so busy these days and you look much more haggard. What is troubling you so much?" Wan Qingsi asked with concern.
"It's still because of the problem of luck. It's like I own a huge treasure trove of luck, but I can't even get in. I really need to find a key to open the door. Now this key is the most critical issue." Long Junhai said with a wry smile.
"You can't force anything. My husband is too tired now. It's better for him to relax. Maybe he can think of a good idea all of a sudden." Wan Qingsi comforted.
