Chapter 178 Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl(1/2)
VIP area corner.
Liu Yizhi asked curiously: "Shaoqing, you just rewarded Miss Yang Binger with three jade lotus flowers. If I was not wrong, this jade lotus should have been bought for money, right?"
"I am worthy of being the future prime minister." Pei Shaoqing said, "It can be seen."
"Speak well." Liu Yizhi said angrily, "How much does a jade lotus cost?"
"What?" Pei Shaoqing said with a smile, "Old Liu, you have a girl with a good appearance, so you also want to admire her a jade lotus?"
"Just tell me how much it costs."
Liu Yizhi said angrily.
"Not much, only ten thousand coins."
Pei Shaoqing said with a smile: "It's not counting as a Lumi, it's almost worth your monthly salary of thirty years."
"Ten thousand coins?" Liu Yizhi was shocked when he heard this and said angrily, "Isn't this robbery?"
"Robbery?" Pei Shaoqing said, "That's not necessarily the ones who didn't see those second-generation ancestors rewarded them very happily?"
"Yes." Liu Yizhi also said in confusion, "Where do these aristocratic families get so much money?"
Pei Shaoqing said: "Old Liu, haven't you noticed that in recent times, Chang'an or our Tang Dynasty suddenly increased the money?"
"I don't think so."
Liu Yizhi said: "Have you increased money?"
"Oh, you haven't been in Chang'an for this period of time, no wonder."
Pei Shaoqing nodded and said, "I'll ask you one thing, is there such a time when I spent a lot of money in the past?"
"Something or not." Liu Yizhi pondered for a moment, "I remember one year, a group of Bodhisattva Man from the West City came, which caused a sensation in the entire Chang'an City."
"One of the Bodhisattva Man sold a sky-high price of 10,000 yuan."
"But in my memory, it's only once."
"Look, it's only once." Pei Shaoqing smiled, "But now you see, these aristocratic families or high-ranking officials have 1,000 guan in one move. Don't you find it strange?"
"It's a bit strange to be said by you." Liu Yizhi asked, "Why?"
"Because there has been more money," Pei Shaoqing said, "or rather, gold and silver have become circulating currencies."
"Gold and silver can be used as currency." Liu Yizhi frowned and said, "but not many people use it."
"In fact, it's not that there are not many people." Pei Shaoqing said, "but there are very few places that need to trade gold or silver, because only bulk trade requires a large amount of currency."
"But in Chang'an or the Tang Dynasty, there was almost no large-scale trade."
"Even if the Bodhisattva Mantra you talk about is talked about, it is only a tremendous amount."
"A ten thousand chunks of trade is enough to use silk and copper coins, it's just a few more cars."
"It seems to be the same." Liu Yizhidao, "Because there are not many places to use, although gold and silver can be used, they basically won't be used."
Pei Shaoqing smiled and said, "But it's different now."
This actually involves an economics issue.
Because the Tang Dynasty's commodity economy was not large enough, the demand for money was not large, and copper coins, silk, etc. were enough to meet daily trade.
So gold and silver exited circulation.
But now Pei Shaoqing has set up a Shenxianju, guiding the children of Chang'an and the officials and relatives of the officials to come to high-end entertainment, which is equivalent to providing the market with a large transaction.
However, this transaction sells services.
Therefore, the market demand for money increased exponentially.
As a result, the gold and silver that were originally deposited in the family of the Shijiajia and the official Xunfen family joined the circulation field, giving people an intuitive feeling that the money in the market suddenly increased.
Therefore, it is so easy for Pei Shaoqing to make arbitrage, and he can easily make hundreds of thousands of coins.
To put it bluntly, Pei Shaoqing only used various means to make the gold and silver that were deposited in the noble family and official Xunfen's family flow.
So the intuitive feeling is that money suddenly becomes more.
However, doing so will soon bring another problem.
That is, as the amount of currency circulating in the market increases, commodities do not increase at all, so inflation occurs, and Changan's prices will soon experience a rapid rise.
As the prices in Chang'an rise, a price scissor gap will be formed between Chang'an and other places, and merchants will be guided to replenish goods from other places to Chang'an. Then, as goods begin to flow, the scale of the commodity economy will expand sharply.
This is also the result that Pei Shaoqing wanted. He wanted to expand the scale of the Tang Dynasty's commodity economy by creating inflation.
His first move was to increase the supply of money, which was equivalent to flooding the market, and was practicing through the luxury consumption of Shenxianju.
It should be said that this will be a win-win situation.
Although Pei Shaoqing in his previous life was just a veteran of the border guard, he was very interested in some economic theories. He even read several books on currency wars, so he understood these principles.
In a word, Shenxianju is now playing the role of Shadow Central Bank.
However, Liu Mian, Xue Shao, Xue Shiqiniang and other aristocratic families were confused about this.
Liu Mian and others were even a little proud because just now, they won Pei Shaoqing's game and sent He Lian'er from their Moon Palace directly into the finals.
"Old Liu, please watch first."
Pei Shaoqing stood up and said, "I'll lose my companion first."
"Go." Liu Yizhi waved his hand casually. He was already a little bit arrogant. He must admit that the flower list event held by Shenxianju is still quite interesting.
...
Backstage of the Red Building.
Yang Bing'er walked into the dressing room and happened to see He Lian'er and Hua Nu'er waiting for the red cards in the Moon Palace that were squeezing Xue Pan'er. Xue Pan'er was already crying.
"Some little girls are so naive."
"What a naive thing, to put it bluntly, it's stupid."
"Young master coaxes her a few words and take it seriously."
"What I said is, I really think I'm so precious."
"Just like this, she has no breasts and butts, and she still dreams of being the top player?"
"What's the top guy? I almost couldn't even advance to the primary election. If it weren't for the last young master rewarding a golden flower, even the girl from Beiqu would not be able to compare with."
Faced with the runs from He Lianer and others,
Xue Paner just shed tears silently and did not refute.
Although the little girl grew up in a brothel, she is still full of longing for love.
Pei Shaoqing's appearance almost satisfies all her fantasies about her wishful husband. She grew up strongly, handsome, young and rich, and poetry is also beyond the reach of people.
Although that was given to him by Wenqu Xingjun in his dream,
But to her, it is Pei Shaoqing's poetic talent!
But today, I suffered a critical hit of 10,000 points!
During the primary election, several young masters gave her opponent malicious rewards, which made her almost unable to make it to the list of 36 people. When she needed help the most, the young master was not here!
She was sad, she was really sad.
As a brothel woman, Xue Paner actually didn't ask for much.
She just wants Pei Shaoqing to have a little bit of her place in her heart.
But what happened today made her feel that this might be a luxury.
"Pan'er don't pay attention to them, they're just jealous." Yang Bing'er gently hugged Xue Pan'er and comforted him, "Stop crying, it's your turn to play soon. You must advance to the finals directly."
"Sister Ping'er, I'm fine." Xue Pan'er responded absent-mindedly.
While speaking, the master of celebrating the roll call sounded outside: "Please, Miss Paner!"
Yang Bing'er pushed Xue Pan'er slightly, and Xue Pan'er stood up and walked onto the stage.
Seeing Xue Paner's distracted look, Yang Binger sighed again. Looking at Paner's appearance, it is probably difficult to directly advance to the finals.
In this case, the entire Shenxianju will be destroyed!
It's so irritating. What is Pei Sicheng doing?
...
Let’s talk about Xue Paner.
Take the passage and walk to the stage in a daze.
While walking, I was suddenly blocked by someone.
Subconsciously taking a detour, the man also moved one step further and blocked her way.
"Why are you..." Xue Pan'er was a little angry and looked up to scold her, but when she looked up, she was stunned when she saw that the man was Pei Shaoqing.
"Young Master." Xue Paner called out aggrievedly with a small mouth.
To be continued...
