How much is one or two silver worth? Many people have discussed. Many people now have no concept. Some modern TV dramas are misleading. It seems that the people were on the street at any time in ancient times. They just bought a steamed bun for one or two silver. It seems that one or two silver is like our current dollars, showing to how much the current Chinese film and television creator is ignorant and not serious. It should be known that the annual income of the state treasury during the Wanli period reached 2 million, and the number of national treasury income only after the reform of Zhang Juzheng. In fact, most of the people in ancient times had never seen silver all their lives. They all used "money", that is, copper boards. We often say that "no money" means that there is no copper coin. Sils and gold are the currency that prohibit the circulation of the people in the court, so most of the people use money or banknote. Banknote: The currency made by cloth. It is inconvenient to use copper coins in large quantities, so "and" Shang Jia's old banknotes along the Yuan Dynasty, it is inconvenient to use money. " Therefore, the merchants who traded the commodity goods were used by money, not the silver and gold of the whole box and the whole box. The discussion here is the conversion relationship between the silver and the current RMB in the last year of the Ming Dynasty.
The exchange ratio between copper coins, silver and gold. Just like the current foreign exchange price, this is often changed. The proportion of exchanges in different dynasties is different, and the same period of the same dynasty is different. Unlike the current 1 yuan is equal to 100 points, it is clear. In addition, a pound of the Ming Dynasty was quite 596.8 grams, one pound of 162, and one or two at the current 37.3 grams. The following description: "Each banknote consistent, quasi -money thousands, one or two silver; four consistent gold one or two" "History of Ming Dynasty", Zhi Fifty -seventh food five. "So the household department set: one tablet, fold one stone; gold one or two, ten stones; silver one or two, two stones." "History of Ming Dynasty", Zhi Fifth Fourteen Foods. "The ratio of gold and silver rose from 1: 8 around 1600 to 1:10 in the middle and end of the 20th century, and the end of the 18th century turned to 1:20." The gold -silver ratio ratio in the middle of the dynasty was 1: 4 or 1: 5, while the overseas silver flowed into large quantities around 1644, 1 two gold can be exchanged for 8 two white silver. In the first conclusion: 1 Two gold = 8 two white silver = 8000 copper coins
It discussing currency purchasing power, generally two methods are generally through. One is based on the price of gold as the benchmark, and the value of silver and copper coins is calculated based on international gold prices. Another method is to use rice prices and silver prices at the same time as the benchmark. 1) The price of international gold benchmark, the price of gold is basically fluctuating around $ 600 a ounce. We take $ 600 (September 26, 2006) as one ounce. One ounce is 31.1 grams. The Ming Dynasty 1 was 37.3 grams today. Such a one or two gold in the Ming Dynasty was equivalent to $ 719.6. Based on the benchmark price of foreign exchange today (September 26, 2006), 100 US dollars were redeemed for RMB 791.5, which was equivalent to 5695.75 yuan. Based on 1 two golds for 8 silver, 1,000 money converted, one or two silver at the end of the Ming Dynasty was equivalent to 711.97 yuan, which was 712 yuan; one article was equal to 0.7 yuan.
2) The silver benchmark international brand price, the silver prices are basically around $ 11 (September 26, 2006) a ounce. The conversion of gold prices is similar. One or two silver is 1,000 copper coins, which is equivalent to 104.4 yuan, which is 105 yuan. 3) rice price benchmark. According to historical records, the price of rice is as follows: The Ming Shenzong Wanshou (in the 16th, 17th century) White rice (stone) 0.7-1 two (Stone) 3.6 Two (high price before the big disaster in Nanjing); Mi (stone) 5 (Shanghai rice price) In the later period, the disaster and war, the price of food rose very hard. Similarly, one two silver may not be able to buy food, but it may be very valuable when buying other things. Therefore, data at this stage cannot be used as a reference for general purchasing power. The highest price of the Wanli period is used as the general price level, and one two white silver per stone is calculated. The 1st stone in the Ming Dynasty was 94.4 kg. Based on the current rice price of 3 yuan/kg, one stone rice is equivalent to RMB 283, that is, 1 two silver is equivalent to 283 yuan. This, we finally get three data, 1 two silver can be exchanged for RMB 712, 105 and 283. Among them, the value of gold has always been relatively stable in history; although today's grain output is much larger than ancient times, considering that China ’s 1.4 billion people are consumed now, and the conservative estimation of the population in the middle and late Ming Dynasty is also 78 million, so the price of food can be possible. As an important benchmark; considering that the price comparison of silver has changed a lot in various historical periods, the reference can be relatively weak. Therefore, we take the average value of the golden benchmark 712 and the 283 grain benchmark, that is, 497.5 yuan. In order to make up for integers, it is easy to convert, and it is also convenient for everyone to have a perceptual understanding. Here we take 1 two silver equivalent to RMB 500. Therefore, according to the previous price comparison conclusion, we get the currency exchange data in the middle and late Ming Dynasty: This is our second conclusion: 1 two gold = RMB 4000 yuan = 8 two white silver 1 two two two two Silver = RMB 500 = 1000 money 1 money = RMB 0.5 yuan . In fact, 1 two silver can be exchanged for at least 1500 yuan, then 1 text money = 0.33 yuan, or it can be roughly considered to be Sanmao money. It also talk about a small knowledge, 1 two = 10 money = 100 points, so one money silver = 50 yuan, one branch of silver = 5 yuan yuan, which is about 10-15 copper coins. This, we have a more specific concept of prices from the middle and late Ming Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty. The monthly salary of a monthly official from Jiupin was five stones, that is, a monthly salary of 2,500 yuan; the monthly salary of the officer was not included in the three stones, which was 1500 yuan. This is the salary of the government's most grass -roots civil servants. The officials of the Zhengyi product were 87 stones a month, which was RMB 43,500/month, and the annual salary of 522,000 yuan. This was the salary of the government's prime minister at that time, and it was not too much to come. In the Ming Dynasty, it is said that a civilian life is enough for a year or two. If the food is self -sufficient, the money is only used to buy some chai rice oil and salt. It is impossible. You can ask the older generation that they live such a life, and even some remote and poor areas are still in such a life. Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong and received 28,000 soldiers. But you can also see it. That is to say, the troops that feed 10,000 people need 150,000 troops each year, and 48,600 stones in grain, which are 9 million kilograms. In the current words, it is, a army of 28,000 people, a year of maintaining costs of 75 million yuan, can it? Qi Jiguang recruited troops on the southeast coast, stipulating that the annual silver of each person was 10 two. After arriving at Ji Town in the north, the annual recruitment of the guarding wall increased to 18 two. These are all strategic fundraising prices. If it is not to participate in important battles, or not in an important region, the price of recruitment should be lower: Mingxiu "Wujin County Chronicle" calls the local "funded by the victim's Japanese banks", and the year will be the one. There are less than 4 or two. During the Chongzhen period, the war was frequent, a large number of people were displaced, the food had nothing to do, and it was easy to raise troops. In addition, the court's financial tension was much lower than the same period. Therefore, the third conclusion is obtained: the normal consumption of maintaining a 10,000 -person troops should be 80,000 silver and 40,000 stones in food per year. Three years of Chongzhen, Yu Shi Hao Jinyan said: "In the end of Wanli, the nine sides stopped 2.8 million. Adding more than 730 million yuan. Since ancient times, it has been lost for 20 million to lose the Beijing division, and the Beijing division is 20 million. 10,000; practice, more than 7300,000, plus normal taxes of 2 million, a total of 18.3 million. Assuming that the country does nothing, only the army can support the 1.8 million people. In summary, we got three conclusions: The first conclusion: 1 Two gold = 8 two white silver = 8000 copper coins, The second conclusion: 1 Two white silver = RMB 500, 1 Two white silver = 10 money silver = 100 points of silver, The third conclusion: The normal consumption of a 10,000 -person troops should be: 80,000 silver 40,000 grains 40,000 stones
There is no exact answer, depending on how you use it. For example, it is purely silver -selling, jewelry of silver, and antiques. These are different.

The Ming Shenzong Wanshou (in the 16th, 17th century) White rice (stone) 0.7-1 two
(Stone) 3.6 Two (high price before the big disaster in Nanjing); Mi (stone) 5 (Shanghai rice price)
