I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 109 is about the economic war between the three countries!

To be precise, the mutual market appeared in the Western Han Dynasty. The channel for mutual trade was opened by Zhang Qian. Zhang Qian brought back many specialties from the Western Regions.

However, there has never been a fixed place set up for transactions between the Central Plains Dynasty and the border barbarians.

Therefore, Li Heng's formulation is relatively new in this era.

"In this way, we can increase our alliance with the Qiang and Di, stabilize them, and Longyou will not be in chaos."

"What about the Han people?" Fei Yi said, "We only destroyed one family this time, but there are many powerful people in Longyou."

"It's not difficult, but it takes time. Now we can leave the paper buying and selling to Zhao. After all, they showed us their surrender. We have to set a good example in Longyou." Li Heng said, "And We must let other powerful people know how much the Zhao family has earned and how much they have received, so that those powerful people will take the initiative to contact us."

Zhuge Liang nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and Fei Yi was even more elated.

"Are powerful people willing to hand over their fields and tribes like Zhao did?"

"They are definitely not willing for the time being, and there is no need to act too hastily now. Although many of them have surrendered, it is possible that someone will contact Liangzhou secretly. After we deal with Liangzhou, it will not be too late to deal with them slowly. "

"Okay, good point!" Zhuge Liang said.

Li Heng once again showed his strong political ability in front of him.

This is something that many people don't have.

Zhuge Liang and Fei Yi looked at each other, and Zhuge Liang asked: "Ji'an, I remember you told me before that the battle in Guanzhong cannot be fast. We must go to Jingzhou first?"

"Yes."

"Jingzhou is the place of the Three War. If we take Jingzhou, Cao Wei and Sun Quan will jointly deal with us."

"So we have a lot to do. We must be fully prepared before taking Jingzhou."

"What to prepare?"

Li Heng said: "First, externally, we must unite Cao Wei and Sun Wu; secondly, internally, we must fully release the population controlled by the powerful Yizhou families."

Even Zhuge Liang couldn't understand it now.

Fei Yi was even more shocked, Li Jian, do you know what you are talking about?
What does it mean that if we want to deal with the alliance between Cao Wei and Sun Wu, we need to unite Cao Wei and Sun Wu first?

Why does this sound so strange?
Li Heng continued: "Why did Cao Wei and Sun Wu join forces?"

Fei Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "Of course they will attack us."

"Then we will increase their internal resistance to unity and increase their opposition."

When Li Heng said this, Fei Yi finally understood.

Although there are only four words in the matter of uniting the two countries, it involves too many extremely complex factors.

Because the two countries are by no means monolithic, but full of factions.

Each major faction has its own interests.

When the two countries reach an alliance, it means that the interests and demands of the vast majority of factions on both sides have reached consensus, and a small number of those who disapprove have to compromise.

If there is strong internal opposition, it does not mean that it is completely impossible to achieve the result, but it will definitely greatly hinder the achievement of the result.

This obstructive process is the empty window of time.

The empty window of time is an opportunity for the third party.

Therefore, politics is an extremely complicated matter. It is not as simple as one plus one equals two and killing the other party immediately.

Back then, Sun Quan and Liu Bei allied themselves against Cao Cao. After Cao Cao was frustrated and retreated, didn't Sun Wu turn around and give Guan Yu a piece of cake to Cao Cao?

Zhuge Liang and Fei Yi both understood what Li Heng meant.

They were shocked and confused.

Fei Yi continued to ask: "How to increase resistance?" "Let the Wei court have more friends of ours."

"Our friend?" Fei Yi opened his eyes even more, looking at Li Heng as if he was crazy.

"Will those people in Wei Guochao be friends with us?"

"Those people in the Wei Kingdom's court are not willing to be friends with me, Li Heng, nor with Fei Sima, but they will be friends with money, friends with Shu brocade, friends with paper, friends with porcelain, and They will make friends with more good things that they don’t have but want to get.”

"This……"

"We will provide them with these, and once we satisfy them, will they watch us being beaten?"

Fei Yi deliberately pointed out: "That's not necessarily true. Those people in Wei will think that if we are destroyed, it belongs to them."

"Who are those people?" Li Heng asked, "If we cooperate with the Sima family and the Xiahou family wants to destroy us, will the Sima family agree?"

Isn't this obvious?
Fei Yi asked knowingly.

The Sima family has made huge profits from the business. The Xiahou family wants to destroy Yizhou. After the destruction, won't the profits be controlled by the Xiahou family or divided up by others?
This is another multi-party game process, not simply the Wei and Han sides.

"Okay, I understand what you mean." Fei Yi smiled awkwardly, "I guess you can figure it out, but this business is not easy to do. The supply of Shu brocade exceeds the demand, so we can only use paper, but paper It involves the Wei State's official affairs, I'm worried that they will use paper..."

"Don't worry at all. The Wei State is still unable to produce large amounts of paper. They can only turn to us. If they really dare to use it for official documents, suddenly one day we will be cut off, and the impact on them will be even greater!"

Fei Yi was really convinced now.

"Then who should we choose to cooperate?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Currently we can start from Jingzhao Du Family."

"Paper?"

"Yes."

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said, "You can try it. Du Yu is a very good person."

"What about Sun Wu?"

"Who Sun Wu is looking for, I still don't know for a while."

Fei Yi said: "But just paper may not have such a big effect."

"Who said it's just paper?" Li Heng said with a smile.

There are also refined salt, sugar, blue and white porcelain, etc., and of course a large amount of cloth, which can be obtained now.

This is called increasing production capacity, reducing costs, and dumping on other countries, thus affecting the politics and economy of other countries.

Of course, there is another king: currency!

At present, the three countries do not have sufficient currency to support economic circulation.

What should I do?
Then print it!
Build the largest money printing machine, create all the currency, and bind it to Ji Han's unique products!
Make currency circulate quickly to the market, and the economic behavior of upper-class consumption can be used to endorse currency credit.

Once currency can continue to circulate, it will be extremely terrifying.

But this is bound to be a very long process.

At this time, Zhuge Liang had already thought of currency.

Because he has been playing like this for a hundred dollars.

I didn’t expect Li Heng to think of this!

　There have been too many things going on recently, and I have to work on the manuscript at night every time. It is inevitable that there will be some typos. I will check it the next day and make corrections when I see it. It is also a thank you to everyone to help me check it.

　　Thanks again!
