First, the background

According to documents and a large number of unearthed cultural relics, the origin of China currency has a history of at least 4,000 years. China's currency culture has a long history, from the original Beibi coins to the popular cloth coins, knife coins, money, ant nose coins and square hole coins after Qin Shihuang unified China. In the Northern Song Dynasty, paper money-"jiaozi" appeared in China.

Second, the reason

The appearance of paper money in the Northern Song Dynasty in 2022 was not accidental, but an inevitable product of social, political and economic development. With the rapid development of commodity economy in Song Dynasty, commodity circulation needed more money. There was a shortage of copper coins at that time, which could not meet the demand in circulation. At that time, iron money was widely used in Sichuan, which was inconvenient to use because of its low value and heavy weight.

Third, the development process

The initial jiaozi was freely issued by businessmen. In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, a kind of "cross-store" appeared in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, which was dedicated to cash deposit business for businessmen carrying huge sums of money. The depositor delivers the cash to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper temporarily fills in the cash deposited by the depositor on a paper roll and then returns it to the depositor. When the depositor withdraws the cash, he pays 30p interest to the shopkeeper, that is, he pays 3% storage fee. This kind of paper voucher that temporarily fills in the deposit amount is called "jiaozi". At this time, the "jiaozi" is just a deposit and withdrawal voucher, not money.
