Chapter 118 Don't be afraid of you
Seeing Zhuge Liang so anxious, Guan Yu couldn't help but ask: "Military advisor, why is this?"
Zhuge Liang sighed: "If we allow Lu Bu to open a bank under our rule, then all the money will be occupied by Lu Bu!"
What!
Zhang Fei was shocked: "How is this possible? Lu Bu's bank is obviously free of deposits and withdrawals, and he never defaults on it!"
Zhuge Liang smiled angry and said, how could a rough man like Zhang Fei understand the economy?
Zhuge Liang threw out a stack of banknotes and said, "Look at what this is?"
Everyone had seen the banknotes, and Zhang Fei couldn't help but say, "Isn't this the banknote invented by Lu Bu? Banknotes are equal to copper coins. What's the problem?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head angry and said, "Then look at what is printed on this banknote?"
this!
Everyone looked at it intently and suddenly realized.
"Yes, it's this guy Lu Bu!" Zhang Fei said in amazement.
Zhuge Liang's heshou: "Yes, even if the value of the banknotes does not decrease, the avatar is Lu Bu. If the banknotes are circulated on a large scale, they may even replace copper coins. Then the people of the world will only regard Lu Bu as the emperor, not others. But let alone making paper money, I have never been able to study it thoroughly. If Lu Bu continues to do it, how can I fight against Lu Bu's soft knife!"
Now, everyone finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
It turns out that fighting for the world is not just about pure war.
"But if we don't respond, there will be no coal available. In this way, will not all the machinery be useless?" asked Mi Fang.
Zhuge Liang also frowned and felt a headache.
Now machinery has played a huge role in social production. Once it is not used, it will inevitably fall behind.
The conditions that can be accepted by Lu Bu are also huge damage.
Even Zhuge Liang could not make a choice for such a difficult problem.
The atmosphere was solemn that the whole audience was so quiet that it was heard.
Now, Zhang Fei, who was so angry, couldn't stand it anymore: "I said military advisor, what's the problem? Lu Bu wants to run a bank and let him do it. We can learn how to learn the banking method. When the future counterattack Lu Bu, we will rob all the banks. Wouldn't this money be directly turned into our property? Let's use these banknotes to buy goods under Lu Bu's rule, and we can also exchange a large amount of supplies!"
"Yes! Let Lu Bu handle it. The more money we have in Lu Bu's bank, the more we will grab it in the future!"
Everyone praised it and suddenly felt that they had found a solution.
Zhuge Liang felt sad that what Lu Bu wanted was to circulate banknotes across the country, so that everyone could see his big avatar, and they still care about your little money.
So what if you steal the bank, bank reserves are definitely related to everyone's interests. Can you still take advantage of it in vain? It is absolutely impossible.
However, Zhuge Liang, who had no solution for the time being, could only compromise temporarily.
It’s better to wait until he enters Sichuan before making a decision.
Similarly, Cao Cao Group in Yecheng also analyzed Lu Bu's intentions.
"Damn Lu Bu, I finally know why he attacked Bingzhou. It is said that Lu Bu's coal now mainly comes from Bingzhou rather than Pengcheng. He attacked Bingzhou because he was all for coal!"
"Yes, I can't find coal everywhere, but there are a lot of them in Bingzhou. How did Lu Bu know that there is coal in Bingzhou?"
"Lu Bu was originally from Bingzhou, and maybe he didn't necessarily see him before."
"Now Lu Bu has locked the coal in one place, what should we do?"
Finally, Xun You said: "Lu Bu is not allowed to set up a bank, so Lu Bu will not supply coal. Coal is indispensable, so I have to wait. So You suggested that Lu Bu promise to build a bank. But we also secretly sent an order not to save money from the bank. Didn't Lu Bu say that as long as the bank is established, loans will be opened nationwide? Then we only lend or not, let's see how Lu Bu supports it!"
Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he instantly realized that this plan was wonderful.
"Hahahaha, not bad, not bad. Lu Bu wants to run a bank, right? Then let's do it for him. Since he wants to send money to me, then we will collect it!"
In this way, Cao Cao Group has decided on the plan.
Similarly, the same is true for Sun Quan Group.
Under all kinds of pressure, he had to agree to Lu Bu to set up a bank.
However, there are also various small means to prevent it.
Since all parties agree, the speed of running a bank is not fast enough.
In just three months, banks in various places started to open one after another.
Loans are completed, no problem. However, if you don’t have a household registration under Lu Bu’s rule, you have to mortgage things.
House deeds, land deeds, etc., that's hard currency.
If you don’t save money, it’s easy to deal with. All products produced in Xuzhou can only be purchased in paper money.
If you don't go to the bank to exchange money, don't think about buying it.
Mijia’s catering industry even announced directly that it would only accept paper money from then on, not gold, silver and copper coins.
If there are no paper money, don’t come to Mi’s restaurant. Mi’s family is not short of this little money.
Faced with Lu Bu's various policies, all the princes burst into tears silently.
Damn, why can't I beat Lu Bu up?
They could only watch a lot of real money and silver exchanged for banknotes. They saw all the people kissing and loving each other in front of Lu Bu’s portrait on the banknotes.
Then, the real money and silver were continuously transported to Xuzhou.
As for the robbery halfway, haha, if you want to trigger a big battle, just say it.
Fortunately, after three months of depression, Cao Cao became excited.
The cannon and the Military Industry Department have finally developed it successfully.
Why didn’t Cao Cao go to the Military Industry Department to check the specific situation?
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
As a row of cannons burst out at the same time, the land collapsed and the world shook.
Wherever the shells passed, there was nothing but earth and rocks flying around, and no grass grew around them.
Seeing such a shocking scene, everyone present was shocked.
"Hahahahaha!" The excited Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh: "Lu Bu, I am not afraid of you!"
After being excited, Cao Cao immediately ordered to cast five hundred cannons immediately. At that time, he would also want Lu Bu to taste the cannons.
When the people from the Military Industry Department heard this, they were instantly scared.
It’s not that they can’t build it, but that it’s five hundred cannons, how much does it cost!
The in charge of the matter couldn't help but report: "Return to the Prime Minister, we have a shortage of copper mines. If we want to mass-produce cannons, I'm afraid it's..."
How could Cao Cao not understand the meaning of being in charge? But in order to have the weapons to compete with Lu Bu, Cao Cao had to shout: "If you don't have a copper mine, you will raise the copper coins. In any case, this Prime Minister will also see more cannons!"
this!
There was no way, Cao Cao issued a death order, and no one dared to refute it, so he had to obey the order.
However, the consumption of copper coins in such a large amount may further encourage the circulation of Lu Bu paper money.
In this way, the world's money is not all under Lu Bu's control.
Although many people cannot think thoroughly, they just feel like they are controlled by Lu Bu.
After all, the banknotes were made by Lu Bu, and everything was not decided by Lu Bu.
This feeling of being controlled is very unpleasant!
In the end, Cao Cao set the final style. That is, after having enough cannons, he would send troops to attack Bingzhou.
Since there is coal in Bingzhou, why do you have to trade with Lu Bu? Isn’t it a pleasure to grab it directly?
It has to be said that no one can guarantee calmness in the face of interests.
If you can't get it, of course you rob it by force.
War is the most powerful means of diplomacy.
Not long after, Pang Tong, who received the news, quickly reported to Lu Bu: "The king, according to the scouts, the troops in Jizhou are being mobilized frequently. All regions are transporting supplies. Depending on the situation, Cao Cao is very likely to use troops to Bingzhou."
