Chapter 505 Advantages of banknotes, whoring metal copper for nothing!
Yes, decimal currency does have a certain degree of difficulty in forging.
But in terms of use, it is absolutely unmatched by other currencies.
Not even in binary.
Actually it's like Su Yu said.
Even a person like Wang Ben who is not very sensitive to numbers can convert currencies so quickly, let alone other people.
"Actually, there is another problem, that is, you are bound by the inherent concept." Su Yu caressed the teacup and said leisurely.
"Oh? Being bound? How to say?" Old Zhao asked with great interest.
Su Yu didn't answer directly, but reached into his trouser pocket and took out a small pink paper with a pattern.
There is also a large 100 marked with Arabic numerals on the paper.
RMB banknotes with a face value of 100 yuan!
"This is one of the commonly used currencies in our world. Guess what, it represents the value of Daqin Banliang." Su Yu asked with a smile.
This 100-yuan note, which he exchanged in the system, is worth only 100 yuan.
In fact, normally speaking, things like modern banknotes that had no role in the Daqin period should only be worth single-digit funds in the system.
But the prices of monetary commodities like banknotes are strangely echoes of the value they represent in later generations.
Su Yu guessed that this might be the system preventing him from directly exchanging various modern currencies as a circulating currency, and then using the price difference to make money infinitely.
Lao Zhao picked up the hundred-yuan bill that Su Yu had placed on the table, and shook it first, and then his eyes showed doubts.
"It's made of paper?"
Paper?
A question mark appeared in everyone's heart.
As we all know, hemp paper has just appeared in Daqin.
But because the raw materials for its manufacture are extremely cheap.
More recently, labor has been replaced by steam engines.
Therefore, the price drops again and again, and it is one of the cheap products that can meet the daily needs of the people of Daqin.
So much so that paper has long been equated with cheap and cheap in the hearts of everyone.
As a result, there was a trace of doubt in everyone's heart.
Can this cheap product be used to make money?
Could it be that there is something very valuable on it?
Just when Lao Zhao and others were in doubt, Su Yu reminded just right: "The materials for making this currency are very common in our world."
"It can be said that those things alone are not valuable things.
Hearing Su Yu's words, the doubts in everyone's hearts became even heavier.
It's not a valuable thing, so how can this kind of thing be used as currency?
"Su Yu, you have to know that if the currency is made of cheap goods, there is a risk of chaos in this country!" Li Si said with a serious look.
Su Yu nodded: "I understand what you mean, in your opinion, using this cheap product to make currency, once it is counterfeited, will have a huge impact on the entire economic system.
This question, in fact, he had thought about it a long time ago when Daqin would issue new currency again with the development of the economy.
Today's Daqin currency is copper halves and gold, um, it's actually brass.
Although the manufacturing methods of these two currencies are very simple, any craftsman with some craftsmanship can imitate them.
But Xianyang Palace is not worried about this at all.
Anyway, a copper coin is half the value of pure copper.
No matter who made it, as long as it is pure copper, then the two halves have their own circulation value.
A piece of copper, whether it is sold like this, or made into coins, or made into something else.
As long as the process is not too complicated, its value is not much different.
Moreover, all the copper mining rights in Daqin are currently under the control of Daqin.
If you want to make coins, you have to spend money to buy copper ore.
As a result, after thirteen tricks, the price of the Qin Banliang produced was no different from that of metallic copper.
Who has nothing to think about, doing such a thankless, waste of time?
In addition, the current demand for copper products in Daqin is still high.
There is no downward trend in prices either.
If there are more copper coins on the market, Lao Zhao is too happy.
But modern pen and paper are different.
The materials are all cheap, once someone masters the counterfeiting technology.
Then, at a very small cost, 830 will produce wealth that is completely disproportionate to it.
And this exaggerated ratio, once it appears on a large scale in the duration, its impact will undoubtedly be extremely huge.
"In response to this situation, our world has extremely perfect anti-counterfeiting and anti-counterfeiting measures." Su Yu smiled confidently.
With a beard, Lao Zhao asked uncertainly: "So Su Yu, do you mean to suggest that Da Qin also start using paper money? 99
Su Yu nodded: "Yes, the appearance of paper money represents the progress of society. 35
"Compared with traditional currency, banknotes are more convenient to carry, and large amounts of money can be easily carried on the road.
"The most important thing is that in the future, as the grid starts to be erected, the price of copper will inevitably soar."
"So instead of buying the metal copper circulating on the market at a high price at that time, it would be better..." Su Yu smiled.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Lao Zhao stood up excitedly and continued Su Yu's words: "It's better to use this paper money to exchange for metal copper!
The smile on Su Yu's face spread.
"Damn, how can it be said to be exchange, in our case, this is called prostitution!
