The way to manage money is to open source and reduce expenditure, now the court is tightening their belts to live, and the salaries of hundreds of officials are replaced by refined salt, and it is impossible to throttle, only to find a way to open source, and taxes can not be levied, so I have to go sideways and use some extraordinary means!

The world destroys money to get copper, casts utensils, most of them are buried in the ground as funeral goods, and the dead can't use these things, in this case, why not borrow it, as for the person sent to borrow things, it is naturally the captain of the gold!

"Passing on the decree of Xiangjun, adding the commander - Huang Shu is the 'Faqiu Zhonglang General', the Marquis of Guannei, 200 households in the food district, the 'digging army' has meritorious service in the battle, the soldiers are all promoted to one level, and the establishment of five battalions has been expanded, and it is directly under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

While Cao Cao spoke, Cheng Yu raised the pen in his hand, brushed a little bit, prepared the Jun Zhi word for word, and offered it with both hands, after Cao Cao checked it, he took out the seal of the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, stamped it without hesitation, and handed it to Xiao Yi again!

"Promotion, knighthood, food, this guy is really prosperous, but it's a pity, those ancient tombs are about to suffer!" Looking at Jun Zhi, Xiao Yi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, took out the 'Twisted Lion - Flame Golden Seal' from his arms, and stamped it, so far, the world's first tomb robber Hou Ye was born!

Huang Shu is a yellow squirrel, originally a tomb robber, when the Yellow Turban Rebellion was quelled, he was taken under the command of Xiao Yi, and set up a 'digging army', building cities and digging trenches during wartime, acting as an engineer, exploring ancient tombs, searching for gold and treasure, and replenishing financial resources for the army!

Over the years, the 'digging army' has made outstanding contributions, explored countless ancient tombs, and dug up gold, silver, jewelry, and bronze utensils every year accounted for about forty percent of the treasury revenue.

Although the credit is great, the reputation is stinky, in the final analysis, it is still a group of earth rats who burrow in the ground, and they can't see the light, this time Cao Cao waved his hand and directly promoted a Guannei Marquis, although it is only the lowest level in the marquis, the vibration of the 'digging army' is no less than a strong earthquake!

No one wants to live underground forever, and no one wants to have a bad reputation for a lifetime, the yellow rat is a marquis, it sets an example for the tomb robbers, and also points out a way out, as long as you dig the soil well, you can also be promoted to the marquis, become a noble class, you can want, after the decree is handed down, how much enthusiasm will those tomb robbers burst out, and how many ancient tombs will suffer from the catastrophe!

The matter is in a hurry, everyone has no good impression of the tomb robbers, but they did not say anything against it, the "digging army" originally had 5,000 people, divided into five battalions, each with a touch of gold captain to command, now the establishment has been expanded, it is conceivable that in the future, the tomb robbers from all over the world will flock to fight for this opportunity to wash their identities!

"Spread the decree of the same thing, take back the right to mint coins in various states and counties, change it to the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, set up a 'treasure casting officer', coordinate the major coin affairs, and in the future, all localities are not allowed to mint coins privately, and those who violate the order will be beheaded all over the house!"

It was still Cao Cao Nian, written by Cheng Yu, and after stamping the Prime Minister's seal, it was handed to Xun Yu this time, as Shang Shuling, he needed his consent to do things in government affairs!

He took the decree with both hands, but Xun Yu hesitated, looked at Cao Cao, and looked at the important ministers who were seated, he didn't take out the 'Shangshu Ling' seal in his arms for a long time, and his face was solemn and about to drip water, it involved a lot, and the relationship was too big!

Since the Han Dynasty, the minting of coins has been relatively chaotic, from the imperial court to the local states, counties, and the princes and kings of various places, as long as there are copper mines in the jurisdiction, they can open the mountains to take copper, and then get a few coin-casting furnaces, the copper water is poured, after it cools down, it is a well-known copper coin!

Everyone is minting money, the specifications are naturally difficult to unify, the proportion of copper and tin is chaotic, not to mention, even the weight is inconsistent, the same is the 'five baht money', can be a few points worse, large and small, ugly to the extreme, and even there are not a few typos!

Even so, the states and counties are still rushing to mint coins, the reason is simple, the oil and water are sufficient, it is better to make money than to mint money, and the number is not under their own control, for example, the county minted a million coins, handed over to the treasury of 300,000, and the remaining 700,000 fell into private pockets, and the excuse is simple, and the minting is lost!

Now Cao Cao has returned the coinage power to the central government and unified the regulation, which is certainly a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, but also smashed the jobs of many people, these people are the real power faction on the ruling side, and the leader is the three major state pastors!

Cao Ying Group has four states, Si, Xu, Henan, Yan, of which Sizhou is directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, there is no state pastor, the government decree is directly issued by the prime minister, the other three states, Xuzhou Mu Xiao Yi, Yuzhou Mu Cao Ren, Yanzhou Mu Xia Hou Dan, are all generals with heavy troops, but also Cao Cao's most affectionate person!

If you want to take back the right to mint coins, you have to touch the interests of these three people, as a feudal official, who is willing to hand over the money bag, it is with this in mind that Xun Yu hesitated, the three major state pastors, he can't afford to offend him!

Cutting off people's financial means is like killing their parents, the consequences are unpredictable, for a while, the secret room was silent, people's eyes flashed back and forth, exchanging various opinions, and finally fell on Xiao Yi together, "Metropolitan Governor, this thunder has to be topped by your old man!" ”

People with a little geographical knowledge know that there are two major copper veins in the world, both of which are mines that stretch for hundreds of miles, one is in Shuzhong, controlled by Yizhou Mu-Liu Zhang, and it is with the large income of Tongshan that this 'dog guarding the household' will enjoy wealth and prosperity and do not want to forge ahead!

The other one, in Langya County in Xuzhou, the Western Han Dynasty was the fief of King Wu - Liu Bi, the 'Seven Kings Rebellion' during the period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, the financial supply of the southeast rebels, relying on the copper mountain there, and now it is in the hands of Xiao Yi, Xuzhou Fujia in the southeast, one by sea salt, one by the copper mountain, the court took back the right to mint coins, and the biggest damage was Xiao Yi, he did not make a clear statement, Xun Yu's official seal dared to fall!

"Two hundred miles of Langya, eighty copper mines, hand them over for nothing, my brother is really reluctant!" Touching the little black face, Xiao Yi trembled in distress, just like digging meat down from the ribs, but the repossession of the coinage right to the central government is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and it is also the trend of the times, and his own family and country can only choose one!

"Forget it, be willing, be willing, have to give up to get it, dozens of copper mountains are just that, hand them over, who calls himself a fancy to other people's daughters, it should be regarded as a bride price~~ Woo, it's so expensive~, let Cao Jie have more sons in the future, and get this money back from their grandfather!"

After figuring out what was at stake, Xiao Yi looked at everyone, first made a heart-wrenching gesture to Cao Cao, and then turned his gaze to Xun Yu and nodded slightly!

"Smack! ~~Call! ”

The big seal in Xun Yu's hand fell, the decree took effect, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Yi is the most meritorious and powerful one among the three major states, as long as he nods and approves, the remaining two will not object, and the matter of recovering the coinage right will be implemented smoothly, of course, this matter should not be urgent, and the specific steps must be carefully discussed, so as not to backfire and cause turmoil!

"Righteousness and squandering wealth, for the country and the people, Xiao Lang's heart can show the sun and the moon!" When the decree was passed, Cao Cao was so happy that he couldn't help but praise it, but if he wants to be the son-in-law of the Cao family, the bride price of dozens of copper mountains is not enough, at least dozens of cities are needed, and his daughter is worth the price!

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

If you want to solve the money shortage, it is not enough to expand the 'digging army' and recover the coinage right, we must solve the last problem, prohibit the private minting of coins, destroy money and take copper, this is the more fundamental thing, otherwise it is like a hole drilled under the water tank, no matter how much water is put in, it will slowly run out!

"The stakes are very high, please think twice about the Prime Minister!" Xun Yu, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, the four strategists bowed together, they knew very well what the content of the next decree would be!

The resumption of the right to mint coinage is just to touch the rights and interests of the three major state pastors, the number of people is small, and they are all henchmen, which will not cause much backlash, at most give some compensation!

It is different to prohibit private coinage, the water is too deep, there are too many involved, the court officials, the family is not clean, the mountains around Xuchang, there are a large number of private casting workshops, the smoke is billowing every day, bringing huge profits, moving them, is to move the lifeblood of these people, not to work hard?

The throne belongs to the Liu family, but the world belongs to the scholar family, which is a recognized fact for hundreds of years, even if the imperial power is strong, it is easy not to touch the interests of the gate valve, and if you are not careful, it will turn the world upside down!

Cao Cao is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty and a strong man in the world, but if he wants to resist the Shi clan gate valve group, the strategists can't help but pinch a cold sweat,

"The old man, as the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, is the regent of the sky, in order to govern the country and the country, and return the world to a peaceful world, in the face of difficulties, how can he be afraid and retreat!" Cao Cao's face sank like water, took the pen and ink, and personally wrote the third decree, as a politician, in addition to power, but also responsibility, but also to have an indomitable determination!

"Under the rule of the Han Dynasty, there are private coins and profiteering, behead!"

"Under the rule of the Han Dynasty, there are those who destroy money to take copper and cast utensils, behead!"

"Under the rule of the Han Dynasty, there are smuggling coins, circulating exotic people, beheading!"

After the decree was written and sealed, Cao Cao looked around and began to look for a candidate to implement the decree, no matter how good the policy is, someone must implement it, otherwise it will be a dead letter, the question is, who dares to touch this flaming mountain?

"The old man dares to make this decree, and he is ready to burn the whole family, since it is the order of the surname Cao, then the surname Cao will carry it out!"

As he spoke, Cao Cao took out a golden tiger talisman from his arms and threw it to his three sons, "Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, from now on, the tiger and leopard will be transferred by the three of you brothers, and the matter of private coinage will be thoroughly investigated. ”

"No!"

Fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers, fight!
