The sky was gray and grey, a small coastal fishing village in Hetao County (Pelotas) in the south of Han.

Yang Kaifu woke up with the creak of his wife's creaking cloth, reached out and picked up a coarse gown on the bed, wore it skillfully on his body, stood up and walked to his wife, and said softly, "Do n’t be too tired, borrow at home The government's money is almost gone, so I don't need to get up so early in the morning. "

"Well, I know." The woman replied softly, turned her head and looked at the three sleeping children, and whispered "Mi Tao is well placed in the pot, you go to make a fire, make a meal and ask the boss to get up, he He has lost a lot of weight lately, giving him more sleep. "

"The school's test results are coming down. If the boss's performance is good, the family must prepare the boss's tuition for college prep."

Did not follow the wife's instructions to cook a fire, mentioning his eldest son, Yang Kaifu frowned slightly.

"Master, do you still want your boss to go to college?"

Upon hearing her husband's words, the woman stopped working and asked.

"Yang's ancestors haven't read books in the last three generations. The boss has managed to read for a few years. It would be a shame if he failed to pass the college preparatory course."

"The master, you also know the son's ability. The boss reads late in the evening, and the reading is not as good as other students. Every day when he returns from the school, he must read late. The son has done his best to study. If his score is good, you will follow. His mind asked him to apply for admission to the Naval Military Academy and stop embarrassing him. "

"Well, listen to you this time, if the boss has passed the Naval Military Academy score, let him apply for the Navy."

Knowing son Moruo, his wife knows what his son thinks better than himself. The eldest son is fifteen years old and has his own opinions. As his father, Yang Kaifu wants his son to go to college preparatory school according to his own wishes, but The eldest son was struggling to study, and he simply required him to apply for college prep, and he may not be able to graduate successfully during the prep. Therefore, after a difficult choice in the heart, Yang Kaifu decided to respect his son's opinion and agreed to apply for admission to the Naval Military Academy. ...

In the middle of the sun, the bright sun sprinkled on the slightly undulating sea, swelling layers of golden light.

On the sea where the golden light shines, hundreds of ships, large and small, are scattered, and the situation is slowly moving in different directions.

Most of the vessels on the offshore waters are wooden fishing vessels with a tonnage of not more than 500 tons. A few of these wooden fishing vessels are small fishing vessels built by local civil shipyards in Han, most of which were merchant ships captured by the National Defense Forces. Sold to Chinese fishermen who emigrated to Han country.

There is no particularly large fishing ground on the southern coast of the Atlantic Ocean in South America. However, there are abundant fishery resources from the south of Brazil to thousands of miles off the coast of northern Argentina. Therefore, Chinese immigrants from coastal areas such as Fujian and Zhejiang have arrived in the South American and Han countries. He soon resumed his old business and became a fisherman again, using the money earned from fishing as his main source of life.

Yang Kaifu was originally an ordinary fisherman along the coast of Fujian Province. After emigrating to the Han Dynasty, Yang Kaifu's family was allocated 60 acres of land according to the number of people in the family. However, two years later, his wife added two more children to him. Affected by the Han government and neighboring neighbors of more than a dozen retired soldiers, Yang Kaifu thought that sixty acres of land would be allocated to three sons, and each son could only be allocated twenty acres of land. The eldest son also had to pay part of the tuition fee each year The expenses of the family were difficult to maintain based on the income from farming alone. Therefore, Yang Kaifu moved his mind to continue fishing as a fisherman. He borrowed from the government to buy a small wooden boat through the guarantee of several familiar neighbors in the town. After spending more than two years at the beach, excluding the cost of the eldest son's schooling and family expenses, Yang Kaifu owed 90% of the money owed to the government. The remaining money was based on his usual fishing volume, two or three. You can pay it back after a month.

The increasingly prosperous days gave Yang Kaifu the confidence and enthusiasm of working hard to support his family. In the vast sea, Yang Kaifu and the brigade fishing boat separated and headed for an area with fewer fishing boats.

"Daddy, the net is moving!"

Yang Guangzong, the eldest son of Yang Kaifu, reminded loudly when he saw the fishing nets shake violently under the boat.

"Don't move with the boat bow, I'll pull the net!"

Yang Kaifu handed the boat bow to his son, leaned sideways toward the bow of the fishing net, supported his feet, and pulled the fishing net with two hands.

"Boss, the hull is too shaken, fix the bow on both sides of the bow and stabilize the hull!"

"Endure." Yang Guangzong replied, and skillfully checked the two bows in the grooves on the two sides of the bow respectively. After the bow was fixed, the vibration of the hull slowly decreased a lot.

After finishing the work arranged by his father, Yang Guangzong saw that several big fishes in the fishing net were still bumping around, and quickly picked up the harpoon placed in the middle of the cabin. He came to the fishing net in three or two steps, right in front of him. To stab the harpoon at the big fish as usual, Yang Kaifu's voice sounded in time. "Boss, live, don't stab them!"

"I see." Yang Guangzong quickly put away the harpoon. After the harpoon was placed, he immediately came to his father and helped his father collect the fishing nets.

The strength of several large fish in the fishing net was gradually consumed in the collision with the fishing net. After more than an hour, the sea fish that no longer moved violently were wrapped in the fishing net and pulled up to the cabin.

"Boss, you see that these two fish are big tuna. I guess the biggest is 200 kilos, and the smaller one is more than 100 kilos."

Yang Kaifu was lying on the cabin, his body soaked with sweat and panting.

"Dad, how much can this boat sell for?"

Although his body was exhausted, Yang Guangzong asked with joy on his face when he saw a boat full of fish and those two bigger tuna.

"Hey, ordinary tuna is one or two silver pounds, and good quality tuna is two or two silver pounds. The two tuna we caught this time, the big one is bluefin tuna. Look at its big belly, this This kind of tuna is called big belly tuna. The price is higher. A catty tuna costs three or two silvers. This tuna can sell six or seven hundred silvers. The smaller one can sell more than one hundred and twenty silvers. Wait until this. A boat of fish has been sold, and we can get more than seven or eight hundred dollars. "

Yang Kaifu said happily.

"Dad, can our family repay the money owed to the government?" Yang Guangzong asked happily.

"Twelve silver can be exchanged for eighteen Chinese yuan. Our family owes six hundred Chinese yuan to the government. After the eight hundred silvers have been repaid, more than half can be left."

The Han Yuan is the legal currency of the Han country, and was officially issued in 1877 to replace the role of silver.

The Han country implemented a gold standard monetary policy. After the gold treasures obtained from Peru were depleted, Li Mingyuan ventured to enter India as a black tea merchant in search of the later famous Padmanabaswami temple treasures.

India has all fallen into the hands of the British at this time. Sending men into India to search for treasures is very risky, but in 1877, Peru ’s treasures were exhausted, and the establishment of Han ’s own monetary policy could not be postponed. As a last resort, Li Mingyuan first announced that the Han country implemented the gold standard monetary policy, stipulating that one Chinese yuan is equivalent to one gram of gold. People with Chinese yuan can go to a designated national bank branch to exchange equivalent gold with their Chinese yuan currency. Silver is allowed to circulate as a transition currency within five years. After five years, ordinary people can exchange twenty-to-one silver-to-gold exchange rates in exchange for Han currency.

With the location provided by Li Mingyuan and the reputation of Padmanabbas Swami Temple in India, it is not difficult to find the treasures of Padmanabbas Swami Temple. The difficulty is to escape the British investigation and transport the treasure to Han country.

After finding the treasures in the basement of Padmanabbas Swami Temple, the treasure hunt team secretly packed out the gold and precious treasures in the basement in batches at night, and then scattered the treasures in tea under the cover of a hired white businessman. , Coal, and other goods were smuggled out of the country, and finally arrived in Han in late 1877.

Although the value of the treasures at Padmanabaswami Temple is not as good as the treasures found by Li Mingyuan in Peru, they are equally valuable.

After collecting all the collections in the six basements under the temple, and selling some unimportant diamonds, jewellery, and jewellery, a total of 25 tons of gold were obtained.

25 tons of gold is stored in the National Bank of China ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~, and those precious treasures that have not been sold are removed by officials and sent to the palace, and the rest are put into the Ministry of Finance as the country of Han Use of reserve funds for development.

Searching for treasure is a trick to get wealth. Li Ming knows that searching for treasure is not a long-term strategy. However, as the ruler of the country, he has to use various methods to obtain funds in order to successfully develop and grow in the country.

With an increase of 25 tons of gold, Han National Bank's treasury together with the original remaining gold, the total gold reserves reached 30 tons, relying on 30 tons of gold reserves, Han's monetary policy was gradually accepted by ordinary people after one year of implementation, In addition to still using silver as an exchange currency, more and more people use Han dollar bills to buy goods.

And because western countries use the gold standard system, after the Chinese yuan is linked to gold, the exchange rate between the Chinese yuan and western countries has also stabilized. For example, one pound is equivalent to 7.3 grams of gold, so the exchange rate between the Chinese yuan and the British pound is

1 pound = 7.3 won, the exchange rate between the same Han country and several other major countries can also be settled in gold, 1 franc = 0.29 won, 1 US dollar = 1.5 won, 1 German gold mark = 10 German mark = 3.58 Chinese won, 1 ruble = 0.77 won.
