Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 494 Inflation in the Han Dynasty
Fei Qian gathered the five baht coins on the table together, sighed, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty in his heart.

In history, the Three Kingdoms finally belonged to Jin, and then they collapsed. Most people in later generations believed that it was the reason why Sima could only eat, drink, prostitute, gamble and smoke. However, Fei Qian only deduced the guess from the currency. It's the human factor...

There are many emperors in history who didn't care about four or six, but there was nothing wrong with it, except that Sima's debauchery and corruption led to the end of the country?
In fact, I'm afraid it still falls on this "money".

Money, issued by the state, is naturally endorsed by the state and assumes credibility.

But once the people have lost confidence in this money, how much confidence will they have in the country that issued this coin?

The rapid collapse of the Jin Dynasty was inseparable from the corrupt economy that had been sifted into a sieve in the late Three Kingdoms period.In other words, in fact, Zhuge also fulfilled his wish to drag down Wei State...

The war that lasted for three to 40 years not only killed people, but also destroyed the economies of Wei and Shu. The only better one was Jiangnan, which had been squatting for a long time, so the Jin Dynasty finally moved south.

The end of the Sima clan is that they know how to fight, strategize, and spend their days and nights, but they only don’t understand economics and manage money...

And now, the upcoming inflation will sweep across the entire north, and there should be some factors that contribute to it...

Fei Qian sighed faintly, the feeling was indescribable, excited, regretful, guilty, and even a little regretful, but he had to do it.

In the Three Kingdoms, many people only remember the emperors and generals. Who knew that this small piece of copper coins could actually make these heroes fall into the dust?
As long as inflation comes, the materials I asked Cui Hou to borrow will be the same as picking up for nothing. At that time, fools will use iron ingots to repay the debts, the entire economy will be in chaos, prices will boil, and I only need to take Just pay back the copper coins that are like waste...

And those who lend materials will become leeks harvested by Fiqian through inflation.

And the landmines were buried in Luoyang before, and now they are probably popping up...

Changan.

Prime Minister Changshifu.

As soon as Jia Xu entered the hall, Li Ru gave her a hard look, and subconsciously shrank back a bit, saying, "I didn't come here without permission, I have official business, I just dropped by... Hey! Senior brother Why do you look like this?!"

Li Rulue waved his hands helplessly, and said, "...how is it now in Longxi?"

"It's still the same... However, the Ma family is a little restless..." Jia Xu walked around Li Ru twice, shook his head and said, "...Brother, you are... oh ...or let me stay and help you..."

Li Ru pointed to the desk next to him, motioned for Jia Xu to go over and sit down, and said, "Ma's family, hehe, it's not this time or twice that the Ma's family is restless... I can still hold on... Hey, don't turn around, Go and sit down."

Jia Xufang staggered to sit on a slant, still sighing: "...you have such a body, how much beef do you need to eat to make it up?"

"Okay, you don't need to remind me..." Li Ru clapped his hands, and immediately walked in a few maids from outside the hall, and placed some dishes and drinks on the table.

Jia Xu picked up a piece of beef, stuffed it into his mouth, let the juice of the beef burst in his mouth, and moaned contentedly, "The beef here is still delicious!"

"That's because the food here doesn't need money..."

Jia Xu quickly ended the topic and said, "Dong Zhongying's situation doesn't look very good..."

"You should at least call Dong Xiangguo..." Li Ru frowned, and after a moment of silence, he said, "...There are indeed some, during this time...well, even...a little forgetful..."

"Okay, okay..." Jia Xu wiped the oil stains from his fingers on the table and said, "It's a pity that Xiangguo's son died early, and Dong Shizhong and Niu Zhonglang... are not good..."

Jia Xu suddenly tilted his neck towards Li Ru, winked and said in a low voice, "...or...brother, you...hehehe..."

"Nonsense!" Li Ru's face darkened.

Jia Xu withdrew her protruding head, and muttered in a low voice: "...I have to make the last wish of Tonggu..."

Li Ru didn't speak, just stared at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu covered her face and said, "Okay, don't talk about this, don't talk about this. Brother, when I came in just now, I saw you holding a wooden sign in a daze...Is it because the population has suddenly increased today, so it is not easy to arrange?"

Speaking of this matter, Li Ru sighed slightly, and handed a wooden sign to Jia Xu: "People are easy to arrange, but this thing is not easy to arrange..."

Jia Xu turned it over and looked at the wooden sign a few times, and suddenly said: "This should not be your idea, otherwise you wouldn't have made so much that you can't eat it now..."

"Things started in a hurry, at that time..." Li Ru nodded, and talked about Fei Qian's suggestion after all the low-level officials in Luoyang ran away at that time, and then said, "If you don't stop it for a while, you will send out more..."

The effect is good.The migration from Sili to the people was smoother than originally expected, and many disputes were reduced on the way. From this aspect, the wooden sign did play a positive role, but now the side effects are also reflected, and it has reached the end of the land. , the people took the wooden sign and wanted to cash it...

Originally, it was a little too much, and it was still within Li Ru's control. Anyway, a lot of money was collected from Luoyang, but I didn't expect that after arriving in Chang'an, an economic phenomenon that was not under Li Ru's control disrupted the original plan. arrange.

The sharp inflation in Chang'an area happened suddenly!

The rapidly increasing consumption demand of the population and the influx of money created a huge gap between the supply and demand of the original quantitative material reserves in the Chang'an area. This result caused Li Ru to be caught off guard and watched Chang'an's prices fluctuate. The time exceeded the money he had originally prepared, and from the officials to the people, everyone was frantically buying and storing...

The money brought from Luoyang has shrunk in an instant, and the prices in Chang'an area have risen to a very outrageous level due to the double driving up of local and foreign personnel. get!
Li Ru understands astronomy and geography, military strategy, and people's livelihood arrangements, but he is powerless in the face of this raging hyperinflation.

Li Ru asked Dong Zhuo for help once, and adjusted the military rations stored in Meiwu to suppress the price once, but it was of no use. After a few days of stability, it started to climb wildly again, and then Dong Zhuo said nothing. I also refuse to transfer food and grass outside...

　In "Historical Records. Biography of Ning Xing", Emperor Wu of the Han dreamed of a man who wore his clothes backwards, and pushed him to fly into the sky behind him.After waking up, he secretly searched for the virtuous minister Ying Meng, and found that Deng Tong's clothes were worn backwards. From then on, Deng Tong went straight up and became the God of Wealth.

　　That is to say, "Deng" in "Panlu Deng Xiaoxian".

　　After checking various sources, it is only said that "clothes are worn behind" and since then it has become an allusion of "fawning on the body and flattering the horse".

　　Why did Deng Tong just put his clothes on backwards sloppily for a while, how did he know what kind of dream Emperor Wu of the Han had had, but said that he was wronged or not?
　　Yesterday on the street, I saw a woman riding a small electric donkey, wearing her coat backwards on her chest, and a man sitting behind...

　　Only then did Chen Nian's doubts be resolved.

　　The clothes of the ancients were not pullovers, so how could they be worn backwards?
　　The only possibility is to unbutton the clothes from the back when doing something...

　　Considering that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a well-known attacker, it was just right for Deng Tong to do so...

　　It's also a tease with no morals...

　　No wonder the annotation is unknown.
