"Bei Ran, you've finally come out of seclusion."

When the first member of the Yanyue Sect's meeting Hall saw Jiang Beiran enter, Tai Yingzong greeted him warmly.

"Greetings, Cult Master Yin, Left Minister Tai, and the Azure Protection Seal."

After Jiang Beiran finished his greeting, Yin Jianghong said,""I didn't feel anything when you were here, but your sudden disappearance for three months really made me feel that the Sheng Kingdom couldn't do without you."

Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and said," Cult Master Yin, you must be joking. Fengzhou and even the entire Sheng Kingdom are being controlled by the few of you here. I'm just assisting from the side. I can't afford to be so exaggerated.""

"You're being silly again. Come, come, come. There's a bunch of things waiting for you to solve."Cult Master Yin waved at Jiang Beiran.

Arriving at the table, Jiang Beiran first picked up a piece of hemp paper and examined it, then praised,""The quality of this paper is not bad. Who made it?"

Tai Yingzong glanced at it and replied," Isn't it from your palace's refining workshop? This paper is indeed useful. It's not like the paper in the past, which was difficult to write on and difficult to preserve."

After flipping the paper over and over for a while, Jiang Beiran thought to himself that this was just the beginning. From what he knew, Xuan paper was the most ideal white paper.

However, with the progress of the hemp paper, as long as the skilled craftsmen in the palace were given enough time and resources, it should be only a matter of time before they could make Xuan paper.

"Speaking of this paper." Yin Jianghong suddenly took out a banknote from her waist and slapped it on the table." The bank you planned has already been built. However, the moment this banknote entered the market, an imitation appeared. In the long run, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with than casting private coins."

Of course, Jiang Beiran had considered the issue of counterfeit banknotes. When he was making the banknotes, he had ordered the words " Forgers shall be executed " to be printed on the banknotes. However, in the face of this kind of shady business with high returns, there were countless people who took the risk.

Now that he realized that losing his head was indeed no threat to these outlaws, Jiang Beiran picked up the banknote on the table and said,""Cult Master Yin, there's no need to be anxious. I've long thought of this. To prevent the people from forging banknotes, the first and most important thing is…" Jiang Beiran shook the notes as he spoke.

"The paper used to print banknotes."

He then took out a piece of hemp paper from the side and placed the two pieces of paper together.""Currently, banknotes are made of the most common hemp paper, so it is difficult to distinguish them. In my workshop, we are currently improving a type of paper called mulberry bark paper. When the mulberry bark paper is completely improved, the ink of the banknotes printed on this paper will be distinct. At a glance, you can see the difference between it and ordinary hemp paper."

"What if this kind of paper has also been forged?"Tai Yingzong asked.

"First of all, it is very difficult to learn the technique of this kind of paper. At the same time, I will also strictly monitor the raw materials needed and prohibit the purchase of them by the people."

"Ha!" Yin Jianghong nodded and said. This venerable self said that once you came out, this problem would definitely be solved. However, there was always a 'what if' in everything. What if the mulberry bark paper you mentioned was still copied in the end?"

"That doesn't matter. Banknotes are the foundation of the country. I've already thought of a lot of anti-counterfeit methods. For example, miniature patterns. As the name suggests, patterns that can't be seen clearly with the naked eye are printed on the banknotes, making it difficult for people to imitate them. Then, the master is frequently changed, greatly increasing the difficulty for those speculators to forge them. There's also the original water mark…Anti-counterfeit seal…The notebook was forged, and so on. In short, it was enough to make those speculators flinch."

Tai Yingzong shook his head and said in satisfaction,"In this way, we can indeed eliminate forgery to the greatest extent. Good, good!"

Although these experts used spirit stones to compare goods, the daily operations of the sect, the rewards given to the disciples, and the various large transactions between the sects still inevitably used money.

However, because the currency of the Sheng Country was very chaotic in the past, the phenomenon of depreciating was also extremely serious. This caused most cultivators to only be able to exchange things for things when they traded, which was very inconvenient.

The appearance of silver notes could make transactions between cultivators more flexible. This was definitely a good thing.

"As expected of our wise and mighty Emperor. He solved a big problem the moment he came out of seclusion. This venerable self..."

Yin Jianghong was halfway through her sentence when her eyes suddenly widened and she flew out of the window with Tai Yingzong and the others.

'This is…How does it feel?

Although Jiang Beiran didn't fly out with Yin Jianghong and the others, he understood why the three of them had reacted so strongly. It was because he had sensed an inexplicable baleful aura attacking him. The reason why he called it inexplicable was because he couldn't tell whether the person who had emitted the baleful aura was a human or a demon. He could only feel a bone-chilling sensation, the kind that chilled to the depths of his soul.

Jiang Beiran had seen many powerhouses in the past year, but none of them could give him such a feeling, not even Yan Guangqing, who was a Mystique Venerable Rank.

"Hu…"

After taking two deep breaths, Jiang Beiran finally managed to calm down. At the same time, five options appeared before him.
