So, I started reading Moby Peepee, and I didn’t expect this book would be so funny. I’m currently on chapter 13, and up to this point Ishmael and Queequeg had so many “no homo” moments. Can’t wait for the Captain Ahab chapters.
I’ve also finished “It” by Stephen King. It was my first King book, and god, I didn’t expected for it to be 50% filler, so many pointless 
and endless backstories of side characters that never show up again, plus the creepy child gangbang 
near the end had some “50 shades of Grey” tier writing. A friend of mine recommended me “The Shining” but l’m not quite sure anymore.
What do you guys recommend?

That's silver leaving china from the smugglers using it to purchase. This reduces the amount of coinage available to the country. Gold was almost always used by the nobility or merchant massive purchases so silver is the most common coinage for everyone to use. Shortage of coinage seriously fricks up countries.

Which, all else equal, has a deflationary effect on your currency, thus you can buy more goods with less. It depends on how drastic the deflation can be for this to become bad. You have any examples in mind?
The biggest frickups from coinage was whenever they devalued it too quickly or too steeply (inflation), but this tends to go hand in hand with other problems going on (debt from war).
