    Currency of the Song Dynasty:First, the currency system of the Song Dynasty was mainly based on money, that is, Tongbao money, which was very complex and varied, and a new type of money appeared every few years. In addition to copper coins, there are also iron coins, and the two go hand in hand.

    Second, the regionality of currency circulation, some places use copper coins, some places use iron coins, and some places use both. These coins circulate in one area and are not allowed to be shipped out of the country.

    Third, the circulation is chaotic. Copper and iron coins are divided into sizes, and the prices between copper and iron coins and between large and small coins are different, resulting in disorderly circulation.

    What was the unit of currency in the Song Dynasty.

    1,000 copper coins are consistent. It has always been about 1 tael of silver, which has no clear contrast, because silver and gold are mainly used as storage currencies and are similar to the current national reserves, although silver is also often in circulation, but it is also a special cargo, ** will also fluctuate.

    The price of goods in the Northern Song Dynasty was very low, a horse cost about 10 guan, and a stone of rice cost about 1 guan (97 kg in the Song Dynasty).Specifically, if you usually have a meal, let's have dozens of tubes when you go down to the restaurant.

    The creation and development of banknotes.

    First, the Song Dynasty had a developed business and required a large number of light currencies, and copper and iron coins were not sufficient due to regional restrictions, and they were cumbersome and inconvenient, which greatly hindered the development of commodity trading between regions.

    Third, the Song Dynasty was forced to raise heavy troops to prepare for the threat and invasion of the Liao, Xia and Jin people in the north, and the military expenditure was huge, and the financial situation was very difficult.

    Around the time of Song Zhenzong (998-1022), 16 firms in Chengdu made a kind of paper coupons, called "Jiaozi", instead of money and iron circulation. This is the original banknote. Because this kind of Jiaozi is issued privately, historians call it a private Jiaozi.

    The wealthy merchants who issued Jiaozi were called Jiaozipu or Jiaozi households.

    Due to the low creditworthiness of the private acquaintance, the Jiaozi could not be cashed in circulation, causing a lawsuit. In 1023 (the first year of Renzong Tiansheng), ZF banned the private issuance of Jiaozi, and set up Yizhou Jiaozi in Sichuan to be responsible for the issuance of Jiaozi, and began to issue Jiaozi the following year. This is the Jiaozi issued by ZF, known as the official Jiaozi in history.

    The issuance of the official Jiaozi is 3 years for one realm, and the old Jiaozi is recovered when the boundary is full, and the new Jiaozi is issued, and the maximum issuance limit is determined for each realm, and the iron money is used as the issuance preparation. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Jiaozi was in charge of the distribution by the Ministry of Households.

Its content is mainly a 3-year boundary, the realm is full of recovering the old jiaozi and issuing new jiaozi; set up the release readiness; Limit the maximum issuance amount.

    Yinhuizi: In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, there was also a kind of silver Huizi that replaced the circulation of **, with money as a unit, the denomination is divided into two kinds, 1 money and half a penny, which is renewed once a year, this is the earliest silver standard paper money in Chinese history, but it is only limited to the use of some regions, and is not circulated in the country.
