As the so-called brothers have to settle accounts, some things still have to be said in advance, after all, you have to be more careful when dealing with Shu, the cause of Jingzhou's incident is because of the problem of Jingzhou's ownership, in case Zhang Wen here rashly agreed, and turned back to Shu to play word games, then they would cry to death!

Moreover, in the past, this Shu country had Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, but Jiangdong had been fighting with them for a long time, and from a historical point of view, Jiangdong still lost more and won less, even if Liu Bei is not here now, but Zhuge Liang is alive, which is the biggest taboo!

Zhang Wen couldn't help but be cautious, and asked lightly: "I don't know what the materials are needed in the second article?" ”

It seemed that Zhang Wen's state was a little restrained, and then he thought of something, and couldn't help but smile: "It's not a tight thing, but I just need Jiangdong to provide some hard ore things!" ”

"Ore ......" Zhang Wen muttered in his mouth, isn't it that Shu wants copper mines? After all, he had seen Shuzhong's economy on the verge of collapse before, even if the losses were controlled to the greatest extent, but the most fundamental reason was not solved, and one day it would completely collapse, precisely because the more powerful it was prevented before, the more serious it would be when it collapsed in the future.

Just now, a trace of the thought of Shu making a show flashed in his mind, but now that he thinks about it calmly, there is no need for Shu to make a show, because they have no reason at all.

Zhang Wen felt that he had already taken it, because in order to solve the economic problems in Shuzhong, it was necessary to restore the Han system of five-baht coins and restore their original purchasing power, and this required a large number of five-baht coins to flow in the market, the key problem was that Shuzhong did not have such a large copper mine, so he had to ask them for it!

After thinking about it, Zhang Wen regained a lot of confidence on his face, and immediately walked out, arching his hand to Zhuge Liang: "Back to Shu Xiang, doesn't Shu Xiang want me to provide a batch of copper ore in Dongwu?" If this is the case, Zhang has to declare here that Zhang can not do anything about this matter, after all, it is not a peaceful and prosperous world, and all the expenses of my Jiangdong are also quite expensive, even if I have the heart to help, I have more than enough heart and not enough strength! ”

Hearing this, a touch of melancholy flashed in Kong Ming's eyes, but it soon disappeared completely from the corner of his eyes, and he was still full of smiles, and replied: "Zhang Envoy is too worried!" Liang hasn't said what ore you want? How can Zhang Envoy think that we are asking for your copper mine? ”

"Don't you want copper mines?"

"Why copper?" Kong Ming laughed.

"Shu Xiang, Zhang is not going around in any circle, Zhang has found that although the traders in Chengdu are active since entering the city, the real commodity transaction volume is very average, the transaction rate is too low, and the price is more than two or even three times that of my Jiangdong, the reason for this scene, presumably Zhang does not say much, Shu Xiang can also understand himself, if you want to solve the current economic dilemma in Shuzhong, you and I must also understand, so Zhang thinks it is not strange!"

It seems that he is not disgusted by Zhang Wendao's destruction of Shuzhong's economy, after all, this kind of thing can't be hidden, so he behaved very calmly, so that Zhang Wen, who had been paying attention to Kong Ming after saying his opinion, was shocked! Not to mention anything else, just in terms of this calm and unhurried attitude, Kong Ming is very human.

"Zhang Envoy has very little observation, there was indeed an economic turmoil in my Shuzhong not long ago, although it was controlled in time, but it still could not be completely resolved, he was like a sharp sword hanging above my Shuzhong soldiers and civilians, I don't know when the string holding this sword will break, and the sword will fall!"

"However, even so, I Shuzhong will not ask Jiangdong for copper ore to solve this matter, Yi Liang knows that Jiangdong's affairs are also complex and changeable, and there are many places to use money; Second, Jiangdong also needs to store a large amount of copper ore for the future! Isn't it? ”

Just like Liu Bei's policy of direct 100 plants after entering Shu, not only Liu Bei, but Cao Cao and Sun Quan have all implemented similar methods to collect money, but the market value is different!

"Shu Xiang is wise, it's not that I Jiangdong is unwilling, it's really powerless!" Seeing Kong Ming thinking about Jiangdong so much, Zhang Wen said a little embarrassed, although this may not be his sincerity.

"Since you don't want copper ore, what ore do you need?" Since he didn't want copper mines, Zhang Wen's heart fell halfway, but in a blink of an eye, he suddenly hung up again, don't you want copper mines, don't you want gold mines and silver mines? Both are money, and gold and silver are more valuable than copper ore, and with gold and silver, they can naturally exchange copper ore for five baht to ease market pressure.

"Not only do I not want your copper mine in Shu, but I also don't need the other party to provide gold and silver mines!" It seems that he also feels the change in Zhang Wen's heart, Kong Ming said directly.

"Shu Xiang is surprised, so I am really curious about what ore you want?" Don't want the gold, silver, and copper ore that they need most, Zhang Wen is really curious, don't want 100,000 urgent ores, then there is really a problem with the ore they really want, what kind of ore will make Shuzhong so nervous?

"Envoy Zhang, Liang said bluntly, I urgently need Dongwu to provide a batch of iron ore in Shuzhong!"

"Iron ore?" Zhang Wen was a little dumbfounded? Isn't there no iron ore in Shu?

"After Zhang Rang heard Liang, there is a requirement for the iron ore I asked for in Shuzhong!" Kong Ming added.

Hearing this, Zhang Wen's spirit was instantly hung up again, have a request? What are the requirements for iron ore? I can't help muttering in my heart, it's good if you finish talking at once, so that ordinary people's hearts can't stand it.

"What are the requirements of Shu Xiang? But tell us one by one! ”

Kong Ming said with a smile: "I need a large amount of iron ore in Shu!" It's just an iron ore in the southeast of your Jiaozhou, and a part of the southwest, which areas are specific, and after a while, Liang Ke entrusted someone to send it to Zhang Envoy, and Zhang Envoy will bring it back for King Wu to peruse! ”

"Jiaozhou ......"

The thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, Jiaozhou is the most barren, the economy is backward, the development is slow, and the residents are even more barbarian, not subject to the king, although they belong to Jiangdong, but they have not provided much help, and they only provide some resources and minerals, and they have not found anything special about their minerals!

"How much do I need?" For the demand for iron ore, Zhang Wen was not as nervous as the three mines of gold, silver and copper before, but asked the required amount very calmly, so he could go back and pay the difference, if it was not too much, maybe the king would agree.

"At least 1,000 tons per month! At that time, from the waterway to Fuling or Wuxian Port, our army can be responsible for transporting it to Shuzhong! ”

"I wonder what you're doing with this? It's inconvenient for Fang to sue Yu, and after he goes back, he should return to the king carefully! Zhang Wen asked further.

"The use of a large number of iron ore is naturally the need for armament, and now that Shuzhong is underarmed, how can it compete with Cao thief!"
