"Borrow money from the people?" Of course, Bi Goo knew the content of this word.
King Kuo of Zhou wanted to attack the Qin State. He borrowed money from the people, but he had no money to pay it back. He avoided the debt and ran to the high platform.
"Old Bi, don't you want to be strict? There is a complete set of methods. "Li Yi said with a smile.
Bi Goo shook his head. "No, I'm afraid of breaking my promise to the people."
"Breaking our promise to the people is secondary. The issuance of national debt will promote the depreciation of the currency.
Now only Zhuangzi uses exchange coupons and guarantees with Zhuangzi's wealth and technical credit.
When the Tang dynasty issues currency, and then introduces national debt, it will drive the depreciation of the world's currency.
Transportation is inconvenient, the speed of information transmission is slow, and the currency depreciates. The people in remote areas have no way to live. "
Li Yi was serious and explained the national currency system and people's livelihood to Bi Goo.
When the speed of information transmission is fast enough and the bank savings system is established, the currency depreciation can be promoted.
As long as the currency is not issued with non-consumable goods as collateral, it will definitely depreciate.
There is a lot of grain planted in the field. The currency is issued according to the grain planted. When the grain is eaten, the currency is still there.
The currency issued because of the grain is naturally transferred to other goods. If other goods are damaged or thrown away, the currency is still there.
When the equivalent currency appears, its value is destined to be reduced.
At the same time, with the development of technology, the reduced value will be made up by productivity. It is dynamic.
Li Yi briefly introduced some of the inevitable problems of the currency system to Bi Goo.
Bi Gou kept swallowing his saliva as he listened. He had thought that he was already very powerful.
At the age of 20, he became a Jinshi. He also knew a lot of problems of officials and the court system.
When he came into contact with taxation, he learned quickly and almost understood it.
He didn't expect to hear a huge system when he came to see if he was sick.
Bi Goo raised his hand to wipe the sweat. Taohong next to him handed over a silk handkerchief.
Bi Goo nodded to express his gratitude and wiped the sweat on his forehead. When he looked at Li Yi, he was a little scared.
He understood that his little friend Li Yi had only casually mentioned a few things.
If one believed in it and tried to understand it, there would probably be many books.
When other students were diligently studying the Four Books and Five Classics in order to prepare for the imperial examination, this young friend was observing the changes in the world.
It was no wonder that His Majesty kept calling him 'My Brother Yi' in the court. What he knew was enough to support a dynasty.
"Old Bi, don't be too conflicted. Take one step at a time and eat one bite at a time. When the time comes, you will naturally understand."
Li Yi could guess Bi Goo's mood. The knowledge system was the most important.
Bi Goo put down the handkerchief and concluded, "If we issue too much banknotes, the people will not be able to make a living."
"So now, I, Zhuangzi, am the one distributing the goods. Gold is money, silver is precious metal, copper is money, and silk is also money.
I want to take the silk out, it's not easy to store it. There's also the gloomy wood that Big Brother sent.
When the weather gets warmer, I want to raise the price of Gloomy Wood. It's a non-renewable resource and can hold its value. "
After Li Yi finished speaking, he quickly ate two mouthfuls.
He felt that the old man was deliberately talking to him. The old man was waiting for his blood to be drawn to check his liver. He couldn't eat or drink, so he had to find someone to accompany him.
Bi Goo swallowed his saliva as expected. The hotpot was too fragrant.
Seeing Li Yi eat a few mouthfuls, Bi Goo had another question, "What is the currency used to calculate the value of banknotes?"
"The most stable currency is gold, silver, and copper. You can issue as much as you have. When it's time to issue, I will provide the imperial court with a few copper, gold, and silver mines. "
Li Yi spoke of a currency calculation method. It was the purest.
Just like 'Green Back', gold was used as collateral in the beginning.
"When the amount of gold, silver, and copper is less, what will you do?" Bi Goo thought far ahead.
"At that time, the currency is issued by credit. The value of credit currency depends on domestic production technology and external international relations."
Li Yi gave another currency as collateral.
"When the time comes, the currency will depreciate." Bi Goo nodded, indicating that he understood this point.
Li Yi shook his head, "Maybe it will increase in value."
"How can it be possible to buy more things? Is it productivity? "Bi Goo was very focused at this moment.
"Productivity is one thing. If one can produce 500 catties per mu, of course, food will be cheap. The purchasing power of money for food will increase.
The other is territory. Take down India and make it the territory of the Tang dynasty. Then find some places where there are no people to occupy.
With better farming tools, such as a lot of cattle, the price of food will still be cheap.
With more cattle, the cattle will also be cheap. Just kill them and eat their meat. The currency will increase in value. "
When Li Yi said this, the map of the two continents with kangaroo and tomato appeared in his mind.
Of course, there were few people in the origin of coffee, and the land area was large.
Cui Liu next to him took Li Yi's plate, put the meat that she had cooked on it, and put it back.
Bi Goo glared at her. Little girl, what do you mean? Are you trying to give me some advice?
Cui Liu stuck out her tongue. She was not afraid of Bi Goo at all. She just wanted to tell Bi Goo to stop talking. Dongzhu was eating.
"Xiao Yi, you eat first." Bi Goo compromised because the other palace maids and eunuchs were looking at him.
He could not do anything to the four classes of Taohong. The 32 of them had come into contact with too many secrets of the Li Family Zhuangzi.
The family members were all taken care of together in the Six Li Village.
The relatives of the family could go to the Six Li Village to visit relatives. The more than 100 families in the Six Li Village were not allowed to go far. They had to be careful when they went out.
Some of the palace maids and eunuchs had older brothers and sisters. In order to prevent them from being threatened, they were brought to the Six Li Village.
Let's put it this way. If a Minister of Revenue went missing, the imperial court would be furious.
If a palace maid and eunuchs could not be found, the imperial court would be frightened.
Li Yi sped up his eating. He knew that Bi Goo's visit was mainly to check on the body and that he still had a lot to say.
When he was about 60% full, Li Yi put down his chopsticks and went to check the rooms.
The patient with the lung injury had long since had his tube removed. He was slowly undergoing recovery training and had not stopped taking his medicine.
He was drinking herbal medicine that could relieve pain and inhibit the growth of fungi.
The other 33 people were being watched by 390 Khitans. The 390 people were very dedicated. They were also going out to take care of more than 11,000 southwestern barbarian captives.
"There's nothing special going on in the Ministry of Revenue right now. The assistant ministers and doctors can take care of it. I heard from His Majesty and the prime minister that there will be war in Songzhou. "
Bi Goo was waiting outside the inpatient building. When Li Yi came back from checking the rooms and headed to Li Yi's main courtyard, he spoke.
"They might not be able to fight. I actually hope that Tubo will fight once and let Songzhou train the soldiers. The main thing is the application of vision in actual combat."
When it came to war, Li Yi's attitude was proper.
Bi Goo knew what vision was. In previous wars, the catapults would be placed in the open to fire at the enemy's catapults.
Vision was when the catapults were in the city. Someone on the city wall would calculate the parameters and feed it back to the city. The catapults in the city would fire according to the command.
The enemy couldn't see and wanted to fire back, but they didn't give them a chance.
"After a few losses, the enemy will probably learn." Bi Goo never underestimated the enemy.
"It's fine. You can measure the trajectory. The catapults use a parabola. Look at the highest point, the middle transition point, and the landing position. When we get there, I'll draw it for you. "
Li Yi brought Bi Goo into the study. He found a pen, ruler, and compass and explained the parabola.
This involved observation poles and the choice of position. As for the wind and direction, there was basically no need to consider.
Calculating the position of the catapults was much easier than calculating the position of the artillery.
