THE HISTORY OF MONEY
Years have passed when exchange has come into existence, exchange was not at first done by money which include paper note or coin, they are done through batter (using the goods you have to exchange for another) and this started 1000 years ago or more.
The system of commodity money was eventually brought into the system of representing money. This eventually occurred because gold and silver merchants or banks would always issue receipts to their depositors which was redeemable for the commodity money deposited. Not quite long, these receipts process became generally accepted as a means of payment and were used as money. Paper money or banknotes were first used in China during the Song dynasty which was known as Jiozi.
