Chapter 731: Provocation

With Lu Yi's arrival in Jiangdu, Guan Yu dealt with a series of things vigorously after mutual ventilation.

Although Ma Liang died of illness in Feihu Mountain, he was still sent by the Tingwei Mansion to Feihu Mountain to behead and spread the head of Jiangdu to clear away some rumors that Ma Liang had faked his death due to illness.

Later, the head was returned to Feihu Mountain, and the body was sewn up and re-buried.

As the main culprit who bears the main responsibility, Ma Liang's family was copied into the court to serve as a miscellaneous servant.

The handling here is ruthless, and Tian Yu over there is the crime of negligence, and he was demoted to the pastoral supervisor of the six products and two Huai, and was responsible for the breeding of horse farms in the two Huai areas.

Huang Xi and Li Sheng under Ma Liang were beheaded, and their families were copied into the court to serve as miscellaneous servants; The rest of the battalion governors and military officers were also guilty of negligence and were exiled to Lingnan with their families. The military officers below the battalion governor were repatriated to Yizhou and appointed separately.

This incident caused by Ma Liang and Tian Yu's unauthorized dispatch of troops came to an end, and then the imperial court urgently needed to solve the circulation of new coins...... and stabilize the officials, heroes, and sergeants who hold a large amount of straight money.

There is always a way, this is a multiple-choice question of how to cut meat; It's not a 'meat-making' problem out of nothing.

Whose interests can be sacrificed to ensure stability...... Can it even be more conducive to the stability of the court and the overall situation?

But Guan Yu wants to have a bowl of water, not only to stabilize the ministers and officials in Jiangdu, but also to stabilize the heroes of Yizhou, and also to stabilize the veterans of various armies.

This was not something he could do alone, so he set up a banquet to invite Lu Yi to discuss the matter.

The problems faced by the imperial court were considered when Beifu minted new coins, and there were also relevant countermeasures.

People can think of all kinds of solutions to problems, but they just want to implement them.

Lu Yi can be said to have a good grasp of the current problem, and he is confident that he will solve the current problem.

Guan Yu has a clear attitude: "Yizhou Haojie has made great contributions to the great cause of rejuvenating the Han family, and now every family is burdened by hundreds of dollars." The use of new currency in the imperial court is beneficial to the people, but it is not conducive to Yizhou. I can't bear to do harm, and I intend to allocate 2 million yuan to Yizhou to exchange 100 yuan. ”

There were only six million and a half baht in the hands of the imperial court, and one-third of it was divided by Yizhou Haoqiang...... It's somewhat comforting compared to the huge wealth they have lost.

Judging from the current prices, it is too high, and a bucket of rice in Jiangdu is worth 3,000 yuan...... It's not expensive, it's only thirty straight hundred dollars.

When the new five-baht coin is widely circulated, a bucket of rice in Jiangdu will only be about 20 yuan.

In terms of the price exchange ratio, the Zhibai money is not depreciated now, but when the official uses the Zhibai money to buy bulk materials from Haoqiang, these 'worth 100 5 baht coins' money fall into the hands of Haoqiang, it will depreciate.

In other words, it was not Guan Yu, who is now in power, who plundered the huge wealth of Yizhou Haoqiang; Rather, it was done during the period of the first emperor.

But even so, now when new money hits the market and prices, Yizhou Haoqiang's wealth will still shrink by at least half.

For example, the money officials who were set up in various markets by the imperial court used to exchange hundreds of coins for civil bronze utensils to make profits.

Now that the new coins are on the right track, the circulation of the 100 coins will have to be exchanged...... How do I redeem it?

Of course, one five-baht coin is exchanged for three straight hundred coins; At the same time, it is strictly forbidden to circulate 100 coins.

In this way, a four-gram five-baht coin can be exchanged for a total weight of six or seven grams, which is all copper for coinage.

Even, a five-baht coin can be exchanged for four straight hundred coins, and four grams of copper can be exchanged for ten grams of copper.

This was also the direct impetus for large-scale coinage during the period of Emperor Wu, exchanging good new coins for bad ones...... In this process, the imperial court made money. Who's losing money? It is a person who holds a lot of bad money and a hundred dollars.

Of course, this is conducive to the imperial court and the stability of the market order.

It is not conducive to Yizhou Haoqiang, who is currently holding a large amount of straight 100 money, at the cost of 2 million yuan, to make up for the loss of Yizhou Haoqiang...... It's better than nothing, at least it means that the imperial court has not forgotten Yizhou Haoqiang.

Guan Yu's intentions were good, and Lu Yi shook his head helplessly: "General, the foreign minister thinks that two million money is too scarce, and he has to add more money." ”

"That's not enough?"

Guan Yu felt incomprehensible: "The imperial court is only six million years old this year, and if you give him two million, shouldn't you be content?" ”

"General, people's hearts are hard to satisfy."

Lu Yi's face was expressionless, and he stated a fact: "After all, the imperial court owes something, even if it allocates three million dollars, it is difficult to offset the 101% of Yizhou's losses over the years." If you want to appease your peers, you can only confer an official. If so, he will advance in the interests of Peter, and Peter will advance in inches, and the rulers will be corrupt. ”

In a heavy tone, he stated this embarrassing fact: "The foreign minister thinks that Yizhou Haoqiang is proud of his merits, and he bullies the general to be upright, so he may take the opportunity to pick quarrels and provoke trouble. ”

Picking quarrels and provoking troubles can be big or small.

Guan Yu, who has never been to Yizhou, lacks the necessary knowledge of Yizhou people.

For so many years, there is only one Wang Fu who has a good relationship with him.

Seeing that Guan Yu was silent, Lu Yi simply did the bad guy to the end: "With the prestige of the imperial court, how can you be punished without teaching?" The foreign minister thought that he should immediately divide Hanzhong, so that my father-in-law would reorganize the Xifu and make a pretend to be in Hanzhong. In this way, it is rare for those who have a thief heart in Yizhou to succeed. ”

After defeating Liu Zhang's forces, he was eager to fight for Hanzhong and Jingzhou, and competed with Cao Wei for vital fighters.

Finally, the Wei army was severely damaged continuously, and the Wei army must not be given time to recuperate, so the military operations of the Han army were very frequent.

This means that it is impossible to clean up Yizhou Haoqiang in depth, and acquiesce to the fact that Yizhou Haoqiang has a small range of mergers and monopolies. Therefore, Yizhou Haoqiang is a money bag, and the normal taxation methods cannot compete for much, so they have to use the method of 'five baht money' to collect taxes.

Guan Yu still has a conscience here, and feels that he owes Yizhou Haoqiang to the forced purchase of bulk materials with 100 yuan.

But Beifu is different in his eyes, this is what Yizhou Haoqiang should do, and it is his duty.

Otherwise, if Chengdu was broken through back then, without Zhao Yun's righteous insistence, there would be no current Yizhou Haoqiang, and Liu Zhang's remnants would be swept away at that time.

Later, I really didn't have the time and energy to clean up Yizhou Haoqiang, otherwise all kinds of Haoqiang who were disintegrated by Beifu would be an example of Yizhou Haoqiang.

Therefore, there is no need to feel that you owe Yizhou Haoqiang, this is the protection fee that Yizhou Haoqiang should have paid.

Otherwise, if the first emperor had a little more time at that time, he would definitely sort out Yizhou first, and let Yizhou Haoqiang spit out everything that should be spit out, and the disintegration that should be disintegrated will be beaten back to its original shape.

In that case, how could there be so many things now?

Lu Yi analyzed Guan Yu from the perspective of a family...... It's not that the imperial court owes Yizhou Haoqiang, it's that Yizhou Haoqiang has taken advantage of it and enjoyed it for ten more years, and the enjoyment of these ten years is still beyond the specifications.

The military merit marquis canonized by the imperial court can legally enjoy all kinds of marquis treatment, but they lack economic strength, and they can enjoy it legally, but they can't enjoy it.

Yizhou Haoqiang used the tax rent that should have belonged to the imperial court in exchange for the direct hundred coins of the imperial court, and as an ordinary scholar, he annexed land to control the population, and enjoyed the rich, luxurious, and extravagant life that the Han princes could not enjoy.

Therefore, at this moment, it has come to the moment to crack down on Yizhou Haoqiang.

Lu Yi made a summary: "When Chen Bing Hanzhong in Xifu, the prime minister has an army of 100,000, and if he intends to make the prime minister inspect the land and check the hidden households, Yizhou is afraid and can be determined." ”

"Bo Yan, but filial piety first instructed such provocative words?"

Guan Yu's expression was calm: "Although this is provocative, it is also beneficial to the country." ”

If the two million Singapore dollars can't be exchanged for the favor of Yizhou Haoqiang, it is indeed damned.

If Yizhou Haoqiang is abandoned and sacrificed, then the six million Singapore dollars will gradually flow into the hands of the Jiangdu ministers and hundreds of officials and the army in the form of rewards and rewards, and they will be able to stabilize these people.

If these people are stable, then the whole will be stable.
