Chapter 18 Economic Sanctions

Liu Ming has now left the era of showing mercy everywhere, or too many things are involved, so he does not have much time to continue collecting the so-called historical beauties.

In fact, thinking about it, most of the so-called historical beauties have already arrived in his palace. Not to mention anything else, even Sun Shangxiang is growing up under his protection. When Sun Quan was suddenly killed and his power was suddenly taken away. At that time, the Sun family was going to be buried with him, but Liu Ming took one step first and took the Sun family to settle in the north. Wu Guotai simply gave a favor and betrothed Sun Shangxiang to Liu Ming.

Perhaps, she would still feel that she had taken advantage of it. You know, Liu Ming and Sun Jian used to be brothers, but now they are shorter than their generation because of marrying Sun Shangxiang.

Some old ministers of the Sun family also came to the north to surrender to Liu Ming in the later period. The only one who refused to go north and instead joined Cao Cao was Sun Ce's close friend Zhou Yu. It is said that Liu Ming had no deep hatred with him, and Liu Ming didn't know why he would rather choose to surrender to Cao Cao than go north.

This time, I went to the Han County Industrial Zone mainly to inspect the production issues of each factory. This is related to my next action. Originally, the output was limited considering the population problem, but now he must make the factory increase its output.

As for Zhao Xue, I can only say that he was following the trend. On the one hand, he was naturally moved by Zhao Xue's infatuation; on the other hand, I won't say that, if a woman comes to her door, she will pretend to be a gentleman if she has no problems with her health.

The production in the northern industrial zones is very good, and the rest is the problem of action.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t please the military, the venue must be retrieved. This is Liu Ming’s insistence.

Half a month later, Cao Cao was in the territory.

Cao Cao, who had just destroyed the Chu State, already had the confidence to confront Liu Ming. Not only the population, but also the military method, he had enough capital. The navy may be the most lacking project, but it doesn't matter. The navy cannot conquer the city. This is the army's mission.

Even if Liu Ming's powerful navy is, as long as the army occupy all the local forces, the navy can only be a masterless and lonely soul, either independent or surrender. However, according to the Chinese customs, the latter is very likely.

The only problem at present is the economic problem.

If you take down the State of Chu, you will also have to bear the mess left by the State of Chu. Originally, Chu was determined to reform, but at least it stabilized the anger of the people. However, it would take a long time for the economy to recover. Even Cao Cao could not make money out of thin air.

His main source of income now is local taxes and foreign exchange earned by doing business with India. This guy is not simple, and he directly opened up the Southern Silk Road.

If Tibet had not been a completely wild place at this time, and the plateau symptoms also made ordinary people fear, fearing that Cao Cao would have occupied the Tibet area long ago.

It is not deny that Liu Ming occupied the Northern Silk Road and the production capacity in the south is also limited, so there is not much foreign exchange available, but it doesn’t matter. The foreign exchange at this stage is already sufficient to rebuild the territory.

Liu Ming will have three or five years to go south. During this period, he may be able to take the initiative. If he wants to fight or resist, he can afford the war expenses.

Originally, everything should be like that.

Time has entered winter, and seeing the new year begin again, time passes really quickly, and it feels like a hurry flashes past in front of you.

At the end of the month, Cao Cao was used to having a summary meeting. This was a summary meeting on the quality of military and political work over the past month. The good ones naturally need to be carried forward, and the bad ones can be corrected immediately.

Just like before, all the civil and military officials sat down one after another, looking at the crowd of civil and military ministers below, and they also came from different forces, which made Cao Cao very proud.

"Okay, as before, follow the procedures... Youruo, let's talk about political matters." Cao Cao took the lead in speaking.

"Report to the lord, everything went smoothly this month, and there was no major disaster this year, and the people were also very satisfied with their new homes. However, the public security issues must be further strengthened, especially the elderly in the Jiangdong area, who will have some persecution of the new residents migrating from the north." Xun Chen replied in fact.

"The local consciousness is difficult to avoid. In the eyes of the old man in Jiangdong, the people who migrated from Yanzhou and Yuzhou are largely a group of people who come to compete with them for work. In this regard, local officers should be well controlled, and local officials should also control the emotions of both parties. It is necessary that everyone treats them equally and do not favor or suppress one party.

In addition, pay attention to the mood of the elderly in Jiangdong. They are more native people here, and we, including us, are all 'outsiders'. Don't just let them feel dissatisfied with us because they are too active in their work. In this regard, Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao should help you with it." Cao Cao was still very concerned about this issue. He called Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao's names mainly because they also represent the interests of the people of Jiangdong, or the interests of the Jiangdong family.

"Here." Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao stood up and should reach it.

"Is there anything else?" Cao Cao continued to ask.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is no problem with government affairs." Xun Chen replied.

"Okay, Xiahou Dun, there are some military problems. What big moves have my good son-in-law done recently." Cao Cao turned to ask Xiahou Dun on the military officer.

"When you go back to Your Majesty, the border is very stable. Liu Ming did not mean to raise troops to go south. However, the war against the Western Hu people is still going on. I heard that many slaves have been plundered during this period. Speaking of which, many families here have actually gone north to buy a lot of Hu Ji to come back to enjoy..." Xiahou Dun first reported the current situation very seriously, and finally made a joke.

After hearing his words, many people showed shyness, and obviously many people bought the so-called "Boy".

"Those guillos are blonde and blue-eyed, and their waists are like snakes. They are charming and attractive. They have good skills in bed. They are actually men's kindness. It is understandable to buy guillos or something." Cao Cao said with a smile.

Well, everyone understands this moment, and it turns out that Lao Cao also bought it.

"Your Majesty, although Hu Ji is good, he must take care of himself. Besides, since Your Majesty has ascended the throne, he must set an example. It is best not to openly claim Hu Ji's goodness, otherwise it would be unfair to buy and attract the trend of the people and aristocratic families." Jiang Wan, who was in charge of the economy, immediately stood up and persuaded him.

"I know, I will be careful to restrain myself." Although Cao Cao was a little unhappy with Jiang Wan's interest, he still humbly listened to his suggestions.

At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh that it would be bad to be an emperor, and I couldn't live as freely as before.

In the following time, civil and military officials said something about diplomatic and personnel matters. In the end, Cao Cao looked at Jiang Wan, a talent under his command of the economy.

"Tell Your Majesty, our economy has been very unhappy in the past month. It can be said that if no measures are formulated, the country will not be a country." Jiang Wan said ruthlessly as soon as he came up.

"Say." Cao Cao was anxious and shouted loudly.

"In the past month, a large number of goods from the north have flowed into our south, especially the fabric, which is extremely delicate and round, and it is rare to be warm and very cheap. This should have been a good thing, but their cloth is too cheap, which has caused an unprecedented blow to the local cloth.

Many of our people live by men and women. This means that the cloth woven by women actually accounts for a large part of the people's income. Now that their cloth cannot be sold, the people will have no livelihood. It would be fine if there is no natural disaster. If there is any problem, even if they get sick, they will not have money to see a doctor and can only wait for death at home. If this continues, people will inevitably be in a state of turmoil.

Furthermore, other products are constantly pouring into our southern market for free, especially exquisite glass products. Anyway, they are basically needed, but they are not urgently needed, but they can highlight their taste of life and identity. But these things are what absorb our coins in large quantities.

They are not counting absorbing, but they are constantly buying daily necessities in the south. Whether it is cocoons, basic medicinal materials, or grain, they have purchased a large amount of them. In the past month, these daily necessities have tripled. Perhaps, this is a good thing for farmers, but if they are not organized as soon as possible, the result is that most people cannot buy enough food, and the people have no food, and rationality will disappear with it." Jiang Wan was very serious and very solemn, saying to Cao Cao.

"No one organized them to sell it." Cao Cao immediately shouted.

"There is no restriction on communicating with the north. Besides, we cannot produce many things in the south, and the things produced in the north are highly praised by us. Therefore, since they have been sold, they will naturally buy them home. As for the impact, many people are actually not aware of it.

Besides, the main income of the aristocratic family is actually grain and everything involved in land products. When the other party raises the price to purchase, the aristocratic family will naturally be willing to sell it at a high price." Jiang Wan shook her head.
