Chapter 877 Public Transportation Small Value

"I just need enough money. If I have more money, I still have to spend it." Li Yi didn't care about making money from cotton processing.

"It's your own business to take it out. Why not let you earn the money you deserve?" Li Longji insisted.

"Sure, just make money. When the weather warms up again, you will get a lot of money from selling your bicycles, and you don't have to pay taxes."

Li Yi stopped worrying about cotton and talked about bicycles.

Li Longji asked along the way: "Can good bearings used on a unicycle make the unicycle easier to travel?"

"The value of bearings is far greater than that of a wheelbarrow. Why should someone push a wheelbarrow when they can use a wheelbarrow with new bearings?"

Li Yi smiled. This was just like driving a supercar to deliver food. It was purely for leisure and to experience life.

And the wooden wheelbarrow is actually very good. The battle of Huaihai was pushed out with a small wheelbarrow.

Precious historical documents and photos show that in order to support the front line, people used horse-drawn carriages, donkey carts, wheelbarrows, and burdens to continuously send supplies to the front line.

The wheelbarrows at that time had wooden wheels and axles, and where could the metal be used?

"Third brother, there is actually a way to speed up the process. We can lay a wooden track in Chang'an City, like a track like the Hukou Falls of the Yellow River.

Including those used in iron mines and Chang'an dock warehouses, a horse can pull heavy objects and people at the same time.

As long as the horses are not tired, the tracks crisscross the city of Chang'an, and the people have public transportation.

From the west of the city to the east of the city, how much goods you bring will be paid according to the standard..."

Li Yi began to introduce his new idea, public transportation.

A few years ago, when people were carrying a few packages from the west to the east of the city, they asked him for a fare, but he would not pay them.

He would rather go alone, but it is not easy to make money.

Now, if the same package and distance are paid for a penny, the people are guaranteed to be willing. The time and energy saved can be used to work, and they can earn several penny a penny.

Just like why people in Jingzhao Prefecture use ships in summer and sledges in winter, they think time is equal to money.

Like those who grow greenhouses, they light candles in the morning before dawn to pick vegetables, then cover them with something to keep them warm and transport them to Chang'an for sale.

The speed is so slow that the local dishes are wilted, or do you leave in the morning, arrive after dark, and wait until tomorrow to sell them?

You can only use a sledge to pull it. Set out in the morning and get to the place before noon to sell it at a good price while it is fresh.

There are also people whose families work for Lijiazhuangzi. They spend money to go to Chang'an and back.

I walked here for two or three days without freezing to death. How much less work would it take to go back in the same amount of time?

"How to deal with the intersection?" Li Longji thought of tracks, and he thought of horizontal and vertical crosses.

"Leave a little gap. As long as the wheel is big enough, it won't fall in. It's just a little bump in the place."

Li Yi had seen pictures of railroads crossing at ten, so he did just that.

"What if we turn?" Li Longji still had questions.

"Design a curved track, and if the horse is well controlled, there will be no problem." Li Yi did not think this was a difficult problem.

He once took a tram, made a right-angled bend, and then arced away.

"What about the charges?" Li Longji asked about the specific operation. He had already decided to lay the track.

This thing is fast. As long as it is mobilized, the wooden rails can be laid in two or three days, thereby increasing the speed of people in Chang'an.

You can even pave it along the main roads to the counties in Jingzhao Prefecture, as horse-drawn trams are fast.

But unlike the one from Chang'an to Luoyang, that road belongs to Chidao, and the wheel is still the original wheel.

The new one uses good bearings and is placed on the track. One horse can pull several cars, or two horses can pull several cars one after another while maintaining a fixed distance.

Li Longji has learned the scientific term, which is called changing sliding to rolling, reducing friction.

Li Yi thought about it: "At least we have to earn back Ma's food money. Ma is very hardworking, so don't tire yourself to death.

If the horse can still work for twenty years, consider the value of the horse and include this money.

The wear and tear of the vehicle and cost regression are also taken into account.

Children have a free line and a half-price line, and goods have a weight line and a length and width line.

Generally, you can get one penny per person from the west of the city to the east of the city. The more people there are, the more money you can earn back if you don’t run in vain. "

What Li Yi is talking about is the bus fare, which does not depend on the age of the child, but on the height.

Li Longji understood what he was saying, and had a question about half-price for children: "One penny goes from the west of the city to the east of the city, and from the south of the city to the north. How do you calculate half-price?"

“I have designed currencies below money, cents, one cent, two cents, five cents.

Now in Jingzhao Mansion, productivity is prioritized over demand, and prices of everything are being reduced, regardless of taxes.

When the new rice comes out, the rice price will be lower. If I want to buy rice, I will buy a pound. When the price of a pound of rice is less than one yuan, I will use cents.

Without over-issuance of currency, Datang's economic development would be better and the value of currency would increase.

Small denominations of money are needed to make up for the gaps and deficiencies in the circulation process. "

Li Yi was well prepared, not just for the bus.

Lijiazhuangzi's exchange coupons have never been issued in excess, and they issue as many exchange coupons as there are physical objects used as collateral.

The gold ingots, silver ingots, and copper ingots in Lijiazhuang's warehouse are piled up in one underground warehouse after another.

Li Yi's actual money was several times more than that of Datang.

But the money doesn't belong to him, he has already issued the currency.

A lot of money is released in the form of loans, UU Reading www. uukanshu.net Just like the one that buys clothes, it also makes ships and sleds.

It will slowly recover the principal, and continue to lend out during the process of recovering the principal, but the payback period will be longer.

Like national debt, continuous loan profits, or like a bank.

The difference from a bank is that if a bank is run, it will be over.

Lijiazhuangzi is not afraid, as there are enough collateral to exchange all the exchange coupons issued.

With the improvement of productivity and the non-over-issuance of currency, the prices of many commodities will be lower.

Li Longji looked at Li Yi, and there was nothing else to ask except nodding. When others raised the question, the back hand had already followed up.

"Let's draw it, is it enough to cover the cost?" Li Longji thought of the printing cost.

"One cent is not enough now, but some of the money in Lijiazhuangzi is issued in the form of loans, which can compensate for the cost of printing currency."

Li Yi cannot directly control the cost of currency, but can make up for it through gains.

As long as the production technology is good enough and the productivity of conversion is strong enough, the inflation of currency in finance can be suppressed.

Taxes, commodity profits, and loan interest rates are themselves social activities that promote inflation.

The increase in crop yields on the same area of ​​land, the improvement in handicraft efficiency, and the reduction in breeding costs will bring down inflation.

When productivity is high enough, and the currency is not over-issued, and the inflation rate is not as fast as the number of goods, it is time for goods to fall in price.

At this time, it is time for the people of the Tang Dynasty to enjoy welfare.

It is not the same as deflation where everyone has money but does not buy things. Deflation is troublesome. Once deflation occurs, other measures must be taken.

There is no such danger for the time being, so Li Yi will not say it.

When someone joins forces with big capital to make trouble one day, he will let the other party know how powerful the currency manipulation offensive is.

He has many ways to kill his opponent, and he will not show any mercy.
