Liu Bei looked at Liu Chan and said, "Since that's the case, I've made up my mind?" ”

"It's not up to you to decide!" Liu Chan was full of slander in his heart, and arched his hand: "It's all up to my father." ”

Liu Bei nodded and said, "That's Wu Yi's daughter!" ”

Zhang Song was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "Since this is the case, I will arrange the marriage certificate, and I can marry the son only when he is an adult!" ”

"Wait!" Liu Bei stretched out his hand to stop Zhang Song.

"I don't know what else the lord commands!"

Liu Bei groaned: "Prepare three marriage letters, Yun Chang and I, Yide have already agreed when they get married, if they both give birth to sons in the future, they will marry brothers, and if they have children, they will become husband and wife."

Now Feng'er, Xingcai and my son's childhood sweetheart, can become husband and wife, although it is married to Wu Yi, but my brother's daughter, but she needs to get married first!

Yide learned that I was going to marry Adou, and he would have come to me to make trouble, if Yun Chang knew, I was afraid that he would have to repair the book for me, so I would ask you to go to Jingzhou, and give Yun Chang a marriage book first. ”

"The marriage between the lord and the two generals Taoyuan is already a good story, and the marriage of the descendants is even more intimate, and it will definitely be passed down through the ages in the future, so I will do it here." Zhang Song didn't dare to object to this matter, and he couldn't control the affairs between other brothers.

Guan Feng and Liu Chan have no opinion on marrying Zhang Xingcai, this Zhang Xingcai was originally his queen in history. Liu Chan was secretly happy in his heart: "The rules of the ancients are good, and there are many wives!" ”

Not long after Zhang Song left, Liu Chan followed Liu Bei to learn how to deal with government affairs, and the guards came in to report: "My lord, the military advisor and a few gentlemen have something to see!" ”

Liu Bei frowned, waved his hand and said, "Let them in!" ”

"No!"

But after a while, Zhuge Liang, Liu Ba, Fa Zheng, Li Yan, Huang Quan and others came together.

"I've seen the lord, childe!"

"You may be seated!" Liu Bei nodded, motioned for everyone to sit down, and asked, "You have come together, isn't the new law already formulated?" ”

Zhuge Liang got up, arched his hand and said: "Lord, the new law has almost been formulated, and it is now in the proofreading stage. ”

"Strategist, please!"

Zhuge Liang said: "After the Lord determined Yizhou fairly, he ordered me to streamline and rectify the soldiers and horses in Yizhou, which has now been completed. ”

Liu Bei hurriedly asked: "After excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled, how much is left?" ”

Zhuge Liang replied: "There were 120,000 to 150,000 soldiers and horses in Yizhou, but Liu Zhang did not repair the armor, among these people, there are many old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are many people, after I eliminate the old, weak, sick and disabled, I have 90,000 soldiers who can fight!" Coupled with the more than 50,000 soldiers and horses brought by the lord from Jingzhou, as well as the 50,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, now, the lord has nearly 200,000 soldiers! ”

Liu Bei's real pinnacle was not after he captured Hanzhong, but after he took Yizhou.

In order to seize Hanzhong, Liu Bei fought with Cao Cao in Hanzhong for several years, although he got Hanzhong, he also suffered heavy losses, and the people in Hanzhong were also empty by Cao Cao.

Compared with Liu Bei, who first gained Yizhou when he got Hanzhong, he had the most soldiers and horses.

Listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei was excited: "Okay, I have been raising troops for more than 30 years, and now, I finally have the strength to fight with Cao Thief." ”

"But ......" Zhuge Liang's face was not good-looking.

"But what?"

Zhuge Liang gritted his teeth and said: "When the lord started a war with Liu Zhang, he agreed with the soldiers that if the big thing can be done, the things in Liu Zhang's treasury will be taken by the soldiers. After Liu Zhang surrendered, the soldiers discarded their weapons and went to the treasury to move treasures. ”

The military here does not refer to money.

Rather, it is military supplies, such as weapons, armor, bows and arrows, tents, quilts, food and forage, baggage vehicles, construction materials, etc., and soldiers are out on the battlefield, and none of these things can be achieved without them.

Liu Bei raised troops to attack Liu Zhang, and in order to take Yizhou as soon as possible, he made an agreement with the soldiers, and after taking Chengdu, the soldiers really emptied the treasury.

As for the things that the soldiers moved, they naturally took out the money to sell them and squandered them to enjoy them, these soldiers were born and died all day long, and they naturally wanted to enjoy the treasures, but don't expect them to keep these treasures to work for Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's face changed, and he hurriedly asked, "How much is missing?" Cao Cao's attack on Hanzhong is imminent, can it be replenished by the end of the year? ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "Liu Zhang didn't repair the armor, and the equipment of the Yizhou soldiers was not complete, and now the treasury inventory has been squandered by the soldiers, but there is too much missing. ”

"This ......" Liu Bei's face couldn't help but become solemn, and he couldn't help but say: "The battle for Hanzhong is imminent, and the soldiers must be ready to go out at any time. ”

Liu Ba came out and said, "Don't panic, lord, I have a plan, I can complete the military within a few months!" ”

Liu Bei was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "What is Zichu's plan, come quickly!" ”

Liu Ba said: "Casting copper plates worth 100 yuan is passed, the price is unified, the officials are the official market, and the public sale system can be implemented!" ”

Liu Chan listened to Liu Bei for a long time, and when he saw Liu Ba say this strategy, he said in his heart: "That's true!" ”

Minting is worth a hundred dollars, and it seems that it has nothing to do with replenishing the military, but it is not.

The nature of the straight hundred coins is similar to that of bonds, and its meaning is to plunder materials.

However, at the beginning, the object of the transaction worth hundreds of dollars to obtain the military was the landlord Haoqiang.

Because only the granary of the landlord has surplus grain, and only the landlord has weapons and bows and arrows in his hands.

The target of the replenishment of military supplies was the landlords and the powerful, not the ordinary people. Because the common people have no surplus food in their hands, and they have no weapons.

First of all, Liu Bei was in charge of Yizhou, and announced in the name of the government that Yizhou would be worth hundreds of dollars in circulation in the future.

Then use the price of flattening, the officials for the city, the public to buy and sell to enhance the credibility of the direct 100 money, and obtain the grain and grass weapons in the hands of the landlords.

Ordinary people, who make a living from farming and weaving, at the beginning, the change of currency has little to do with them, and the common people mainly trade in barter.

For example, Cao Wei abolished currency for a period of time and traded it in the form of barter, but later people hoarded Juqi, and this method could not be used, only to restore the currency.

Landlords are different, they need money to trade.

However, the world is in turmoil, the currency is also unstable, and the landlord Haoqiang is also worried that this kind of money will not be changed in a long time.

At this time, Liu Bei proposed to trade military with them with 100 yuan currency, military is Liu Bei's lifeblood, Liu Bei traded military with them with 100 yuan, so that the credibility of this 100 yuan went up, and Liu Bei could also get military from the landlord Haoqiang.

Therefore, the government minted a hundred coins of copper plates, which made the landlords of Yizhou strong and economically tied to Liu Bei's regime.

This is the case, and there are drawbacks.

The straight-through value of a straight hundred coins, a straight hundred coins, is worth a hundred five-baht coins.

The currency worth hundreds of dollars was inflated, and at first Liu Bei wanted to play tricks and use the straight hundred dollars to obtain the military in the hands of the landlord Haoqiang.

However, after a long time, if Liu Bei cannot profit from the war, he will rely on the Yizhou landlord Haoqiang to provide military supplies for a long time, and the large-scale passage worth hundreds of dollars will cause inflation and rising prices, thereby harming the interests of the people.

And the fact is also the case, the battle of Hanzhong lasted for several years, Liu Bei's military could only turn to the Yizhou landlord Haoqiang, and later Liu Bei called the emperor, and launched the battle of Yiling, and suffered a heavy defeat again, after Liu Bei died of illness, even if Zhuge Liang was in power, it was difficult to solve the harm caused by hundreds of dollars, so the economic problems of Shu Han have not been solved.
