In fact, Malin hoped to mint more copper coins to meet domestic needs. Because he comprehensively reformed the domestic farms into an employment system, the serfs became wage-grabbing workers, and they had more spare money. However, after being liberated from the status of a semi-slave, the farmers had not yet developed the habit of consumption. By the time their consumption habits were developed, the commercial trade of Beihai Kingdom would usher in explosive development, and the demand for copper coins would become extremely large.
Marin had personally experienced this in his previous life. In the 40 years of reform and opening up, in the first 20 years, although the economy developed and people gradually gained money, most people were used to the hard life of thrift and thrift. They didn’t spend money and could only deposit it in the bank. It was not until the 21st century that a new generation of young people grew up that everyone began to get used to consumption, or even ahead of the consumption. Then, the market of the entire country was stimulated to take off. The demand for money also increased greatly. Fortunately, with electronic payment methods, otherwise money would be short.
Similarly, after the current Beihai Kingdom carried out farm reform in Marin and paid 2 Finney's daily salary to the serfs, the agricultural estate of Beihai Kingdom actually became a capitalized employer farm. The next step is that Marin encouraged these rich farmers to go to the town to purchase.
However, because the current secrets of high agricultural yields in Beihai Country need to be kept confidential. Therefore, Malin has not yet cancelled the identity of farmers as serfs, and has also restricted their freedom of movement and prevented them from leaving their hometowns. For traveling far away, an official pass is required. However, within the towns of their hometowns, the survival security of farmers has been greatly strengthened.
For example, the safety of farmers' lives is strictly protected by law, and the nobles cannot deal with serfs at will and need to go through court trials. At the same time, Marin is already planning to establish hospitals in each town to protect people's health.
After these reforms, the lives of the people in the Beihai Kingdom were greatly improved. Marin's reputation in the Beihai Kingdom was second only to religious gods such as God and Saints. Of course, Marin also asked Bishop Taylor's disciples to help brainwash the people and sang praises to the Hoffman family, which also made great contributions. In particular, he made great contributions to the disciples and grandchildren of Bishop Taylor's fooling sect, and quickly calmed down the hearts of the local people.
Of course, this has a lot to do with Marin's practice of migrating all the nobles of all the newly conquered areas to Bremen Province. In a region, rebellion and rebellion must have leaders. In this era, the nobles of all the people were natural leaders from all over the country. It was very convenient to control and suppress them. This was exactly the same as Emperor Wu of Han's act of migrating all the national tyrants to Maoling - the powerful people in various places were centralized, so who dared to take the lead in rebelling?
Therefore, Malin's method of imitating the Han Dynasty's concentrated tyrants was very clever. This greatly ensured local peace.
Those powerful men left their nests, just like the tigers in Pingyang and the dragons in the shallows, they could not shake up, so there was no threat. The Western Han Dynasty established the five imperial tombs of Changling, Anling, Yangling, Maoling and Pingling, gathering the world's wealth, which not only stimulated Chang'an's consumption and commercial prosperity, but also brought peace to the local area. Therefore, during the Western Han Dynasty, there were basically no local tyrants who caused chaos. They were all under house arrest in Wuling, just under the emperor's eyes, who dared to commit suicide?
However, the Eastern Han Dynasty did not implement the policy of migrating the powerful to the imperial tombs, allowing the local powerful to develop, and built defensive buildings like castles such as docks, allowing the powerful to take root and grow in various places. Then, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, these local powerful people took advantage of the opportunity of the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the world was in chaos, and took advantage of the situation to rise and defeat the world.
If the Eastern Han Dynasty continued to implement the policy of migrating the world's powerful people to the imperial tombs, those powerful people would be centrally controlled, who would dare to act as a domineering in the local area? No, they were all moved, and they would definitely not be able to act as a domineering in their hometowns, and the people would not be bullied... nor would they force the people to launch the Yellow Turban Uprising...
Marin actually wanted to imitate the policy of the Western Han Dynasty, but what was tricked was that the emperors in European Christian countries did not have tombs. Kings were just buried in the cemetery of the Capital Cathedral, with the most high-end and luxurious cemeteries. Could it be that you want to migrate the world's powerful people to live in the Capital Cathedral? There is no space...
Therefore, Marin could only rely on the opportunity of initial conquest to stuff the nobles of the conquered areas into Bremen. Then, he arranged for officials and police from the North Sea Kingdom to take over the new area. At the same time, he also arranged for Bishop Taylor's fooling disciples to help appease the people.
However, this method can only ensure the stability of the first few decades. Over time, new powerful people will still rise in various places. Therefore, Malin has been hesitating - should he learn from the Western Han Dynasty's policy of migrating powerful people to the imperial tombs, or to strengthen judicial construction?
After thinking for many days, Malin decided to strengthen judicial construction. Because forcibly migrating the powerful to a place will cause too much harm to the local economy. The reason why the powerful is a powerful is that it must be the lifeblood of the local economy. If it is forcibly migrating, it will certainly cause threats to the local economy, but it will also cause harm to the local economy. Therefore, Malin decided to strengthen the construction of the legal system to monitor the local powerhouses.
...
Of course, in the decades when aristocrats from all over the country were concentrated in Bremen, the country's domestic peace would be extremely peaceful. Therefore, Marin could be assured to carry out various reforms and constructions. Then, the economy of the Beihai country will inevitably explode. Even if people's consumption habits have not been well cultivated within 20 years, 20 years later, when the new generation grows up, everyone will be accustomed to spending money.
At that time, the domestic market of Beihai will usher in explosive growth. Then, everyone has money and the market demand for goods is extremely high. Official tax revenue will also make a fortune...
Similarly, the demand for coins in Beihai will be extremely strong at that time. Whether it is gold, silver or copper coins, the demand will become scary.
But now, the Beihai country has not yet demanded for coins. Because the Beihai country's generation is mainly farmers who occupy the majority of the population and have not yet formed the habit of consumption. At the same time, it has only been a few years since they started saving money. Even if you want them to consume, they may not be willing to do so.
However, 20 years later, when the next generation grows up and becomes the main force of society, this generation has saved up 20 years of money, and basically every family has a lot of extra money. Based on the income of 2 Finneys per day, the annual income is 730 Finneys, which is about 12.16 gold coins. However, in the farm in Beihai Country, they don’t have to pay for food and accommodation, so they only need to buy clothes, firewood, rice, oil and salt, etc. If they save a little, they can have seven or eight gold coins a year. After 20 years, it will be more than one hundred and dozens of gold coins. This is a lot of money and you can buy a lot of things. At that time, their children can use it to spend money...
But first of all, Marin needs to cultivate children's consumption habits...
Therefore, Marin decided to open a chain-run school store in craftsmen's schools (actually ordinary schools, just to protect and prevent the nobles from being disgusted).
At that time, snacks such as various candies, biscuits, milk powder, French fries, dried bananas, melon seeds, peanuts, popcorn, candied fruits and other snacks will be placed on the shelves of the school store. Of course, when the pepper planting and yield in the Americas form a scale, Marin will also launch the dominant snack - spicy strips...
Marin plans to use these snacks to cultivate children's "good habits" of spending money. When they grow up, the coins will not be hidden in their hands and become moldy. Moreover, those who have read books often will not treat themselves badly. Because they are more confident and think they have knowledge and identity, they naturally cannot bear to treat themselves badly and spend money more generously.
Also, studying in Beihai Country is not expensive, and children only need to spend money to buy clothes, pens, inks and paper. In addition, they have money at home, so as long as they cry and make a fuss, they can still get some pocket money to buy spicy strips or something...
This is just a craftsman school for ordinary children. The formal schools that noble children attend. Marin doesn’t have to cultivate their consumption habits. Just open the school shop and put snacks on the shelves, and some people buy them...
It doesn’t take 20 years. More than ten years later, a group of children who grew up eating snacks have money in their hands and don’t worry about not going to shop for shopping. Then, it will be the time when the business in Beihai Country is booming...
