"It sounds reasonable, but the reason is not very sufficient. Since you are cooperating with the emperor, I think you can set up the treasury in the palace. It is safe enough and no one will question it." Li Yuanzhao said.
Fang Zheng raised his hand to deny it, and said righteously: "No, the officials in the court are all like wolves and tigers. Putting so much money in the palace will sooner or later be targeted by someone, and it will not be good for your reputation if it gets out. It feels like Your Majesty is trying to rob money. This is the people's money. I will never allow such a thing to happen!"
"Our bank is cooperating with His Majesty, but in essence it is still cooperating with the imperial court. In order to prevent chaos and interference from various powers, it is necessary to operate it independently."
The silver vault must be located in Taoyuan County.
Otherwise, it will be troublesome for him to get money to do things in the future!
Although it was to promote business development, he still had "selfish motives".
It is unreasonable for him not to embezzle money from the bank he opened himself. If he does not embezzle the money while it is lying there, is he still a human being?
Conscience wise, Mr. Fang has nothing to blame.
Banks naturally have to strictly ensure the operation of rules and regulations, but that does not mean they have to abide by the regulations.
Dajing's development to its current level was all facilitated by his money!
It took forty years after Watt improved the steam engine for the train to appear. It was not because the technology was developing slowly, but because everyone was feeling their way forward and no one knew where the goal was.
He is different. He can step perfectly on the nodes.
By centrally mobilizing resources and everyone working towards a precise goal, the development process is greatly compressed.
Although I have a lot of money now, I can't help but feel that there is more to do in the future.
If we start super large projects in the future, we may not have enough money one day.
Going through the approval process is a waste of time!
With banks, this problem will be much less...
This is strategic misappropriation! It will be a highlight in future history books!
Therefore, the silver vault must be located in Taoyuan County!
After listening, Li Yuanzhao smacked his lips and said, "Tsk, every time you show this expression, I always feel like something is wrong."
Fang Zheng's face froze, and he quickly changed the subject: "What's wrong? Your Highness, you can't slander me... By the way, the face of this banknote must be His Majesty's Royal Face, but there are banknotes of other amounts. Your Highness, do you want to come and I'll print you on it?"
Li Yuanzhao's eyes lit up: "Hey, interesting, tell me more..."
.......
The production of silver notes is extremely sophisticated.
The silver bills currently in circulation on the market are about one foot high and six inches wide, which is not a small area.
The reason why it is so big is mainly because of the need for anti-counterfeiting. Since the technology is not up to standard, a lot of information needs to be left on it for verification purposes.
Bank notes are not designed to be this large.
Instead, the size of later banknotes was used.
When it comes to papermaking technology, Taoyuan County is also top-notch! The toilet paper that Mr. Fang uses is of the best quality.
I wanted to make a batch of paper that was resistant to rubbing and waterproof, and whose other indicators exceeded the market standards. It didn't take much effort, but the cost was a little higher.
Then we started making printing plates.
The maximum amount of a silver note was set at one hundred taels, and the minimum was one tael.
On the day when the printing plate was completed, Fang Zhengyi and Li Yuanzhao arrived at the Taoyuan County workshop at the same time, accompanied by Ao Chen.
As soon as he entered the workshop, Li Yuanzhao's eyes were immediately attracted by the printing plate.
He walked forward, picked up the printing plate and praised it, "It's so fine, it's so lifelike for my father."
"Don't underestimate my father's age, he's still a bit of a show-off!"
Fang Zheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and picked up a printing plate to examine it.
I took some time to find someone to draw a sketch of Emperor Jing. The image in the sketch is majestic and dignified.
Emperor Jing was wearing a dragon robe and a crown, and he looked straight ahead with a solemn expression.
He raised his left hand slightly, and placed his right hand on a sword. A five-clawed golden dragon coiled behind him.
This dragon was naturally added by Fang Zhengyi privately.
Before it was added, Fang Zheng's eloquent words made Emperor Jing blush.
Even though it felt a bit shameless, he still hesitantly hinted to Fang Zhengyi to add it.
Li Yuanzhao put down the printing plate, licked his lips and said expectantly: "Father's is ready, what about mine?"
He has left behind paintings a long time ago, so the effect should be pretty good.
Fang Zheng turned around and asked the craftsman, "Where are the other printing plates? Bring them over as well."
The craftsman turned around to get the printing plates. After a while, he brought back a stack of printing plates and placed them in front of Fang Zheng.
The second printing plate shows Li Yuanzhao’s face.
On the printing plate, Li Yuanzhao is leaning sideways, bending over and observing the microscope intently.
The next photo still shows him, holding a wrench in his hand, standing in front of the locomotive with a kind smile on his face.
After that, they were no longer images, but landscape paintings.
Until the last one with the smallest denomination, it was the majestic main gate of Dongjiao University. The fountain that opened once a year, the moment of water spraying was frozen on the printing plate.
There is another line of small characters below: [In the morning I am a farmer, and in the evening I am an emperor’s palace].
In order to promote the business, Fang Zheng did everything he could, turning the most frequently used silver note in the future into the most powerful recruitment advertisement in history...
After reading it, Li Yuanzhao sighed and said, "Okay, but I didn't expect that the one taken by father is so outstanding. These two taken by me seem a bit mediocre."
"You are wrong, Your Highness! These two paintings of yours are truly outstanding. His Majesty's painting is indeed majestic, but I dare to guarantee that these two paintings of yours will be praised by the people in the future!" Fang Zheng patted his chest and made the promise, secretly despising him in his heart.
