"Since I proposed to redesign the monetary system, I naturally came prepared."

Zhu Houzhao took out two pieces of crystal ore and placed them in front of everyone, saying: "You should all know these things!"

"This is the Changbai Mountain crystal mine produced in our country."

Zhu Youxiao said in surprise.

"Zhu Houzhao, you don't want to tell us that you want to use this crystal ore as a new currency!"

Zhu Biao's words hit the mark, and Zhu Houzhao held two pieces of crystal ore in his hands.

"Of course!"

"Look, the crystal ore I'm holding in my right hand was produced in Changbai Mountain during the Tianqi Dynasty of Zhu Youxiao, while the crystal ore I'm holding in my left hand was produced in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province during my Taiwu Dynasty."

"What does this mean? It means that this kind of crystal mine exists on a large scale. It existed in Tianqi Dynasty and Taiwu Dynasty, so it should also exist in other dynasties, but it has not been discovered yet. It is not a problem to use it as a new currency."

Zhu Houzhao talked eloquently: "The most important thing is that this crystal mine contains rich spiritual power, which can be used as an energy source for the wooden puppet."

Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth and said.

"Since you raised this issue, you must have already thought of a solution, so just tell me!"

“If it doesn’t change now, it will have to change in the future.”

Everyone also recognized this very much. The trade exchanges between the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty were very close. If a qualified value system was not formulated, then once one dynasty was in chaos, other dynasties would surely follow.

Lao Zhu made the final decision. In terms of courage, Lao Zhu has never been weaker than others.

"That's a good idea."

"The value of medium-grade spiritual crystals is ten times that of low-grade spiritual crystals, and so on, step by step, each dynasty will use a value system, and after the implementation of spiritual crystals as currency, there will be no big chaos."

From being extremely wealthy to being an ordinary wealthy household, how could those wealthy businessmen remain indifferent due to their greedy and excessive character?

The wealthy businessmen hold a large amount of resources in their hands. If there is a disturbance, the whole country will be in turmoil.

"In order to ensure the balance of the value system, spiritual crystals can be divided into four levels: low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade according to the concentration of spiritual energy they contain."

Lao Zhu's words go straight to the core of the problem.

Just like gold, do high-purity gold and low-purity gold have the same price?

"Therefore, in order to avoid chaos, I propose that all dynasties unify the measurement of the value of crystal mines to avoid turmoil due to unequal value after the crystal mines are circulated."

Wait until the fiscal collapse before making changes. By that time, the day lily will be cold and everything will be too late. Even changing the monetary system will only make up for it.

"It is an irreversible fact that gold, silver, and copper are no longer suitable for this era. The implementation of a new monetary system is to protect the finances from collapse and is beneficial to both the country and the people."

"The crystal mines produced in each dynasty are all different, so how to distinguish the value."

"It can also be used to assist spiritual practice, and its application range is extremely broad. If it is used as a new currency and flows into the public, it can curb the consequences of the rapid proliferation of gold and silver."

The introduction of a new currency was just a matter of words for emperors like Zhu Houzhao, but for the common people, it was no less important than the sun and moon replacing the sky.

Zhu Youtang spoke solemnly.

People who are accustomed to using gold, silver and copper will find it difficult to accept new currencies in a short period of time. They may even instinctively feel that the birth of new currencies will harm their interests, thereby blocking the circulation of new currencies.

"Secondly, crystal minerals with spiritual power are difficult to imitate, which can effectively prevent fraud."

Everyone thought for a while and felt that what Zhu Houzhao said was indeed very feasible. Using spiritual crystals as the new currency and then confirming the value by different grades and levels, judging from the current financial trends, is the most in line with the national conditions of the Sixteenth Ming Dynasty.

"No matter what, it is imperative to implement a new monetary system. Finance is the top priority for the country's operation, and there must not be any problems."

Zhu Houzhao's words were as enlightening as everyone's determination was once again strengthened. It was really time to change the monetary system dominated by gold, silver and copper.

However, Zhu Gaochi raised a new serious question at this time: "It is good to use spiritual crystals as currency, but the people have adapted to the use of gold, silver and copper."

In the new era, the new atmosphere, everything is changing, and remaining unchanged means sitting still and waiting for death.

It is true that there will be countless people who will block the implementation of the new monetary system, but under the general trend, whoever blocks it will die.

In the face of such a major matter related to the stability of the country, everyone in Lao Zhu's family would not mind killing and bleeding like a river.

"Do we have to wait until the fiscal collapse and the devaluation of gold, silver and copper to make changes?"

Emperors like Zhu Biao and Zhu Gaochi, who were known for their benevolence, would never show mercy when it came time to kill people to establish their authority.

Therefore, the implementation of a new currency system is really not a joke. Every step will lead to pitfalls. If you make the wrong step, you will lose everything.

"The rash implementation of a new currency will inevitably cause great shock and turmoil to the people, and will have far-reaching consequences for the country and the people."

The monetary system is one of the most important factors that constitute a country. If the monetary system can no longer support the operation of the country, it will be doomed.

They don't understand economics, but they are extremely clear about the consequences of chaos in the value system. If they don't grasp the balance, things will go riot until they get out of hand.

Seeing that everyone was hesitating again, Zhu Houzhao continued to persuade:

"We have embarked on the path of the extraordinary, and many ordinary things no longer apply to the present."

"The right way is to change when you are poor, and when you change, you can make things happen. Only by cutting off the rotten and unsuitable things can more gorgeous and splendid flowers be born."

Habit is a good quality, but at the same time it is very bad. When a person gets used to one thing, it will be difficult for him to accept another thing with almost the same function.

"That's it. It's been decided to use spiritual crystals as the new currency to curb the proliferation of gold, silver and copper."

Everyone pondered that using crystal ore to replace gold and become a new high-level currency sounded feasible, but in practical implementation, there were still a lot of problems.

"The crystal mine contains rich spiritual energy. I named it: Spiritual Crystal."

This time the new monetary system was implemented, and the Sixteen Emperors of the Ming Dynasty worked together. Some people were just fine, but they dared to rebel and make noises. The only thing that awaited them was death.

Lao Zhu, Zhu Di, and Zhu Houzhao, who were so decisive in killing, would never allow anyone to challenge them with assassinations.

Emperors, no matter how famous they are, are synonymous with self-centeredness. Once they make up their minds, no one can resist them.

For example, the quality of the crystal ore produced in the Hongwu Dynasty is better than that of the Yongle Dynasty, but the value of the two crystal ores is equal. If this continues, there will definitely be chaos.

Especially those wealthy businessmen, whose families have countless gold and silver. If the new currency circulates, the gold and silver in their hands will rapidly depreciate, and their net worth will also plummet.

After agreeing on each other's opinions, everyone discussed some detailed issues, such as the exchange ratio of gold and spiritual crystals.

The promotion of spiritual crystals to replace gold as the highest monetary unit does not mean giving up the use of gold. Gold, silver, and copper have been circulating among the people for thousands of years. It is simply impossible and unrealistic to completely eliminate the use of gold.

The purpose of everyone in the Lao Zhu family is to promote spiritual crystals to solve the increasingly serious inflation problem.

Practitioners use spiritual crystals, and ordinary people use gold, silver, and copper. The two monetary systems complement each other and are integrated.
