Zhenguan First Year, February 5th, Yanhuang College calendar, Friday.
When it was close to noon, thousands of ox carts carrying brand new copper coins suddenly entered the gates of the College.
A copper coin weighed about five to six catties. 100,000 strings of cash would be 500,000 to 600,000 catties. If they were to be transported by ox carts, wouldn't they be carrying thousands of ox carts?
Such a huge commotion naturally attracted the attention of many students, especially those who were sitting by the windows facing the entrance of the Academy. The students who were sitting by the windows and in the middle of class immediately saw the spectacular scene below Guang Hua Tower!
"F * ck! There's so much money downstairs! Our academy is going to be rich! "
On the second floor of Guanghua Building, Class 1, Wang Meng was sitting by the window. At this time, he was already hungry and was looking forward to getting out of school to eat. Inadvertently, he glanced out of the window and caught a glimpse of a vast number of ox carts pulling copper coins. He couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
The teacher who was lecturing in the classroom and the students who were listening to the lecture all turned their gazes in this direction in an instant.
"Wang Meng! Stand up! Who allowed you to make such a racket in class? "
Class 1's lesson was Mathematics. The teacher was Xu Hongzhi. Old Xu's expression was very ugly. Any teacher who encountered such a "troublemaker" in their class would have an ugly expression.
"Uh … Mr. Xu, I … I was wrong! There's really a lot of money outside. There are thousands of ox carts, right? Look if you don't believe me! "
Wang Meng shrunk his neck, but he couldn't help but glance out the window.
"F * ck! There's really a lot of money! Isn't that Yamachō? Why did he suddenly bring so much money to the College? "
Cheng Chumo half-squatted and stretched his neck towards the window. When he saw the countless ox carts outside, he couldn't help but make a fuss.
As the saying goes, three people make a tiger. After the two of them said that, the students in the classroom couldn't sit still, especially those who were sitting by the window. One by one, they stretched their heads to look outside.
"Wow! There's really a lot of money! "
"There, there's hundreds of carts, right?"
"Hundreds? There should be thousands!"
"Thousands? Oh my god, how much money is that? "
The previously quiet classroom was immediately filled with buzzing sounds of discussion. Many of the students sitting in the middle stood up and stretched their necks to look out the window.
"Quiet! Be quiet! "
Xu Hongzhi angrily glared at Cheng Chumo and Wang Meng, and hurriedly spoke to maintain order.
Similar situations were happening in the other classes as well. Originally, there was only the sound of teachers lecturing in Guang Hua Building. However, when it was close to the end of the school day, there was suddenly a burst of noise. However, this noise was quickly suppressed by the teachers in the various teaching buildings.
Clang, clang, clang ~!
After waiting for a long time, the students finally came to the end of class. When the bell and drum sounded, the students of each class swarmed out of Guanghua Building, not to compete for food, but to "see the money"!
It wasn't that they hadn't seen money before, but most of them had never seen so much money! Thousands of carts of copper coins! This scene was too spectacular. No wonder they would swarm out to "see the curiosity"!
At this time, there were still many ox carts loaded with copper coins outside Guanghua Building. After all, it was impossible to store so many copper coins in the warehouse in such a short time no matter what.
"Damn, where is all this money being transported to?"
The students quickly discovered that the ox carts were slowly lining up and moving in one direction. They couldn't help but follow behind, wanting to find out what was going on.
It wasn't that they didn't think of asking the people beside the ox carts. However, the ones pulling the ox carts today weren't the academy's guards, but the soldiers of the Right Marquis Guard (Li Zexuan had borrowed them from Yuchi Jingde). Most of them wanted to ask, but they didn't know the others. How could they ask?
However, there were always people who knew them.
"Hey! Big Brother Shen, why are you here? "
Yuchi Baolin hurriedly asked when he saw someone familiar.
His father was the Great General of the Right Marquis Guard. It wasn't surprising that he knew a soldier of the Right Marquis Guard.
"Young Master, Marquis wishes to transfer a hundred thousand strings of copper coins from Chang 'an to the academy. The Great General has ordered us to escort him along the way!"
The soldier cupped his fists and said.
"A hundred thousand strings of copper coins? Why did the Yamachō suddenly transfer so much money? "
Cheng Chumo couldn't help but ask.
The soldier replied with a straight face, "This general doesn't know!"
"Hey! Look! These copper coins are all transported to this building! "
The students followed the ox carts and finally found the final "destination" of the hundred thousand strings of copper coins.
It was a small three-story building near the academy's library. It hadn't been used since it was built. Today was the first time they saw someone enter this building!
"Yanhuang Bank? What's that? "
The attentive students suddenly noticed the huge signboard in front of the building. The words "Yanhuang Bank" were written on it. After they saw it, they were all puzzled.
"Little Ke, I see that you've been looking for the Yamachō a lot recently. You should know what this Yanhuang Bank does, right?"
Li Tai also came to see the commotion. When he saw the words "Yanhuang Bank", he turned to Li Ke and asked.
Li Ke didn't hide it from him and said frankly, "Yes! The Yamachō intends to introduce a paper currency that can replace copper coins in the academy. This Yanhuang Bank is the department in charge of exchanging this currency! "
"Paper currency? What's paper currency? "
Li Tai didn't understand.
"Uh …"
Li Ke and Li Zexuan had talked so many times that they often used "professional terms". At this moment, he thought for a moment and explained, "Qingque, you can understand it this way. This paper currency is a certificate that can be exchanged for copper coins. It's mainly to make it convenient for everyone to buy things. They don't have to carry a bag of copper coins all day!"
"Oh? That's a good thing ~! "
Li Tai's eyes lit up with excitement.
…
"Yamachō, why are you bringing so many copper coins to the academy?"
After class, Yan Silu found Li Zexuan and asked. There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice because Li Zexuan's "flaunting" behavior had affected the academy's normal teaching in the morning!
Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Mr. Yan, I was just about to look for you! Please inform all the teachers in the academy to gather in the conference room for a meeting at noon! I have something important to announce! You'll know the answer to the question you asked just now in a while! "
Yan Silu was stunned for a moment and could only reply, "Okay! I'll go inform the teachers in the academy now! "
After that, he didn't ask any more questions and turned to leave.
