Chapter 288: Surprised
"Crazy, since General Lin Zhi has a good navy, then we might as well do a big vote." Zhao Yun thought for a moment and then suggested.
"Zilong, do you have any new ideas, let's hear about them?"
"I've got a way to demoralize their playthings." Zilong said.
After listening to this, Liu Feng was very impressed, and said that Zhao Yun was extremely brave and very smart. But after thinking carefully about Zhao Yun's strategy, Liu Feng felt that Zhao Yun's economic acumen was very good. His idea is this, Tianzhu country is not short of gold and silver, and the Xinu country is rich in pearls and gemstones, and there is no shortage of gold and silver, Zhao Yun suggested that directly in the country of Lou Lou to purchase smelted Uzi steel ingots at a high price, regardless of the number, how many are collected, and the price gradually increases.
"Then, isn't it cheaper to cover the country? Wouldn't it be more difficult for them to deal with them with a large amount of gold and silver, and to recruit troops? Ma Tan stroked his beard, unable to figure it out.
"Youchang, think about it again. What is more important to fight a war besides soldiers and horses? Now that the production efficiency of the people is limited, if they all go to mining and steelmaking, what will be the problem in the future? Zhao Yun reminded.
Ma Jian thought hard, and after a while, he also understood, and praised Zhao Yun's clever plan.
In fact, the reason in it is very simple, and it is very effective against the current agriculture-based country. According to the current efficiency, one person can feed one and a half people at most, and if the country wants to march and fight, it can only save food from the mouths of the people. Let them eat less and make ends meet. Even so, there is still not much food left, which is the premise. If the country wants to raise troops to fight, it must maintain this balance.
If Lin Zhi took a large amount of gold and silver to cover his secret purchase of steel ingots, the people would naturally pursue profits and would inevitably go all out to mine and make steel. The reason is very simple, make money, no one can't get along with money. Moreover, the price is getting higher and higher, the attraction is getting bigger and bigger, and the enthusiasm of the people is bound to rise.
As a result of steelmaking for all, land is wasted and food is in short supply. However, the Uzi steel that was refined was smuggled away by Lin Zhi.
The kingdom of Tianzhu received Uzi steel, and the people of Shalou received gold and silver, which seemed to be fair. But the problem is that food is hard currency, and everyone has money in their hands, but when they turn around, they see that there is no food. What to do? Take the money to buy it! Counting the price again, I was dumbfounded, the price of food skyrocketed, and the balance was completely broken. If this continues, I am afraid that the price of food in the whole of Shalouqi will skyrocket.
"When the time comes, I'm afraid that a single ingot of gold will not be able to exchange for a bowl of rice." Ma Jian gave Zhao Yun a thumbs up and said with a smile.
"Why don't we have a chain plan?" Inspired by this, Ma Tan had a new idea.
"Youchang, what's the serial plan?" Zhao Yun asked.
"The lord has always been kind, and he will not bear to let his people starve to death. When the time comes, if we bring in grain and sell it to them at a high price, won't the gold and silver come back? Ma Tan shook his head and said.
I have to say that this trick is damaging enough, but it's not impossible. Moreover, it is completely possible to use a two-pronged approach, while collecting grain at a low price and at a high price. At the critical moment, the price reverses and harvests again.
"Okay, Zilong and Youchang, you two have a good idea. Young Chang, you repair a book for me, and let Lin Zhi act according to the plan. But I wish him not to forget to build ships and train sailors, we may also need it here. Liu Feng explained.
"Yes!" Ma Tan agreed.
"Brother madman, how are you doing? Is there an enemy that we can't figure out? A gentle and playful female voice asked.
The sudden female voice in the camp made Liu Feng's heart flutter, but he immediately reacted, "Asila, why are you here?" ”
"Hehe, it's not just me, but also Talia and Kuranyi. What do you think? Surprised? Not surprised? Asila chuckled and pushed the two behind her forward, "They miss you so much, so they asked me to bring them here." ”
"You little girl, it's clear that you want to come." Talia was angry and funny.
"Yes, you think Qunucheng is boring, and you want to come to the front to have a look, lest the madman blame you, so you let us accompany you." Ku Lanyi can't help this little girl.
Asila stuck out her tongue and asked, "Don't you want to be a madman?" I'm just saying it for you. You must thank me for not inviting me to two meals, so I'll write it down. ”
The three women played a scene, and after frolicking, the three of them inquired about the war ahead. Liu Feng explained it to them carefully, and in general, it was quite smooth, except for the unlucky Sanjie and General Biluo, who was temporarily in trouble.
"You three, it's okay to come here, but you have to promise me two conditions." Liu Feng said.
This battle is extraordinary, the Gundam country is strong, although the battle is smooth in front of you, the conquered city-states are still on the periphery, not to mention the front of Hua City, Wangshe City, Pokro, Geya, Danba and other cities are very difficult to bite. It's really hard to say what dangers they will encounter, Liu Feng doesn't want them to be exposed to risks.
"What conditions, let's hear it, anyway, we are here, so we don't want to leave." Aisila pouted and talked to Liu Feng about the conditions.
"First, you can only come to the Chinese army, not the front army; Second, it's okay to play for a few days, and go back to the city of Qunu early. Liu Feng said.
"Brother madman, don't make a mistake. We are here to fight on the front line, we have all the weapons and armor, tomorrow we will go to the account of General Biluo to report, in a few days the war will begin, you will watch us go into battle to kill the enemy! Asila puffed up her chest, and the towering in front of her made Liu Feng's face hot.
"Yes, we're going too, it's not the first time, we're not afraid." Talia is righteous.
"I'm going too, I haven't had a big fight in a long time." Ku Lanyi stood proudly in front, tall and straight.
Liu Feng looked at the three of them, all of them were slim, they were all good-looking, and with them by their side, it was really comfortable. But this is a battle between the two armies, and bows, arrows, knives and axes do not have eyes, and if he hurts somewhere, he will never forgive himself.
But these three baby bumps in front of him, how to refuse? Liu Feng shook his head helplessly, and he looked at Ma Jian and Zhao Yun beside him for help. Clinker, the two looked at each other and smiled, tacitly arched their hands, and walked straight away.
"This..., these two guys, at the critical moment, are not useful." Liu Feng muttered.
"How? Crazy brother, have you thought it through? Do we go to the front army now, or will we go again tomorrow? Aisila blinked her eyes wide and asked Liu Feng.
The three of them gathered around Liu Feng, and the smell of the smell made Liu Feng more and more embarrassed. He shook his head and compromised, "Okay, you will stay in the army, but forget it when you go into battle to kill the enemy, you must follow me." ”
