"Yamachō, everyone is here!"
At noon, in the large conference room on the first floor of Yanhuang College, the teachers of the college walked in one after another. Seeing that everyone was present, Mo Zhong went up to Li Zexuan and whispered.
"Mm! Let's start the meeting now! "
Li Zexuan slapped the table and said in a deep voice.
The teachers in the conference room all looked over. They were all waiting for Li Zexuan to give a reasonable explanation for the large amount of copper coins that the college had brought over this morning!
However, most of them guessed that Li Zexuan was definitely going to make a big move!
At this time, Mo Zhong brought over a plate of paper with green lines printed on it. Li Zexuan ordered softly, "Distribute it!"
Under everyone's puzzled gaze, Mo Zhong gave everyone in the room ten strips of paper with patterns printed on them. Li Gang held the paper in his hand and looked it up and down. After seeing the intricate patterns and Chinese characters on it, he took the lead and asked,
"Yamachō, what does this mean?"
Li Zexuan saw that everyone had received two pieces of Tang Yuan. He smiled and said, "Alright! Everyone must have received ten pieces of paper. Hehe, these pieces of paper are not ordinary. From today onwards, these pieces of paper will replace the copper coins in the college and become a new currency! "
"What? This thing replaces the copper coins? "
"Then what does Tang Yuan and Tang Jiao mean?"
"And what is Tang Yanhuang Bank?"
"I know about this. The hundred thousand strings of copper coins that Mountain Elder brought over today are in a house with the plaque of the Yan Huang Bank in the academy!"
As soon as Li Zexuan's voice fell, there was a burst of whispers in the room. It wasn't that they were making a fuss, but that the copper coin was already deeply ingrained in their minds. Now that Li Zexuan suddenly announced that he would use this thin piece of paper to replace the copper coin, how could they accept it in such a short time?
"Ahem! I know that all of you are confused and confused, but it is imperative that we replace the copper coins with Tang Yuan in the academy! Oh, I call the paper in your hands Tang Yuan. There are ten different denominations of Tang Yuan. The smallest is one Tang jiao, which corresponds to one copper coin. There are five Tang jiao, ten Tang jiao, fifty Tang jiao, and one hundred Tang jiao, which correspond to five, ten, fifty, and one hundred copper coins respectively.
Above that were the tang yuan. One tang yuan corresponded to one copper coin. Above that were five, ten, fifty, and one hundred tang yuan. They corresponded to five, ten, fifty, and one hundred copper coins respectively.
In order to convince everyone of Tang Yuan's value, I have decided to personally invest 100,000 strings of cash as a deposit to establish the Yan Huang Bank. These 100,000 strings of cash have all been deposited today. I believe everyone has seen it. I can guarantee you that as long as I, Li Zexuan, am the Yamachō of Yanhuang College, the 100,000 strings of copper coins will never be taken away! At any time, as long as someone brought Tang Yuan over, they would definitely be able to exchange it for copper coins!
In the future, no matter if you want to exchange copper coins for Tang Yuan or exchange Tang Yuan for copper coins, you can go to the Yan Huang Bank to do it! Furthermore, as the students of Yanhuang College, you can enjoy the treatment of waiving processing fees when you do business with the bank for the rest of your life!
In addition, the college's canteen, grocery store, and future salaries and scholarships will all be settled using Tang Yuan. Copper coins will no longer be allowed. The Tang Yuan that you receive can be exchanged for copper coins. You can also buy food or other items in the college, or at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, Qiqu Pavilion, Qiqu Culture, and ready-made clothing stores under my name.
Therefore, in summary, replacing copper coins with Tang Yuan will not cause any losses to you. On the contrary, it will bring great convenience to everyone! What do you all think? "
Li Zexuan's low voice resounded throughout the conference room. His grand plan was finally revealed to everyone. After hearing it, the students of the college widened their eyes in disbelief. They were all shocked by Li Zexuan's proposal.
The bank, a hundred thousand strings of cash, Tang Yuan …
They had never heard of these new concepts before, but after hearing them, they had to admit that Li Zexuan's Tang Yuan would indeed bring great convenience to people. However …
"Yamachō, Tang Yuan is indeed much more convenient to carry around than copper coins, but what if a large number of imitation Tang Yuan appear? Wouldn't the Yan Huang Bank lose all its money?"
Li Gang himself did not like the cumbersome copper coins. As an old man, he usually did not carry copper coins when he went out. However, Li Gang was worried that Li Zexuan's bank would "go bankrupt" due to the proliferation of counterfeit coins. Therefore, he kindly reminded him.
"That's right! Yamachō, what if someone imitates Tang Yuan? "
The rest of the teachers also chimed in.
They did not have any objections to using Tang Yuan to pay them. After all, it was guaranteed by Li Zexuan's reputation and could be exchanged for copper coins at any time. Moreover, the shock of the hundred thousand strings of cash in the morning had not dissipated yet! They were mainly worried that Tang Yuan would be imitated. If they accidentally received counterfeit coins in the future, they would have to bear the losses themselves!
"Haha! You all have underestimated Tang Yuan. Don't worry, Tang Yuan's production and printing process are extremely complicated. It is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to imitate. Next, I will explain the characteristics of Tang Yuan to everyone. "
Li Zexuan smiled confidently. Then, he picked up a 100 Tang Yuan banknote and said, "Everyone, feel this Tang Yuan banknote and feel its texture. Is it different from all the paper you've used before?"
Everyone followed his instructions and picked up the Tang Yuan on the table. Using two fingers, they carefully rubbed it and instantly felt the difference.
"Eh? The texture of this Tang Yuan is really special! "
"The texture is superb. Even the best Xuan paper can't compare!"
The students from the academy were all surprised. Li Zexuan smiled and said, "I believe everyone has also felt it. This Tang Yuan's texture is smooth and delicate. It is tough and resistant to bending, and it is very flat. If you shake it in the air with your hands, or pull it tight and loose, or use your fingers to lightly flick the surface of the Tang Yuan, it will make a clear and crisp sound.
As for ordinary paper, first of all, the texture is soft and rough, and the tensile strength is insufficient. It is very easy to break, and if it is shaken in the air, the sound it makes will be somewhat dull. Just based on this point, we can distinguish many authentic Tang Yuan! "
"Pa pa pa!"
After Li Zexuan finished speaking, most of the people in the room could not help but pick up the Tang Yuan in their hands and start to shake or flick it according to his instructions. For a moment, the room was filled with the sound of "pa pa pa".
"Eh? It really is! Listening to the sound, it is different from ordinary paper! "
"This paper must be made with special materials. Yamachō's workshop is really amazing!"
"But what if there is a ginseng that knows the method of making this paper? What should we do?"
