Chapter 120: Making a Stumbling Block

After Sun Qi sternly rejected Wu Guibao's request, some ridiculous things happened, which made Sun Qi deeply understand that economic sanctions and economic barriers are common in any era and dynasty. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I heard Lu Ji talk that when he was patrolling the Great Wall, the Xiongnu people in northern Xinjiang often harassed the villages inside and outside the Great Wall, plundering the people's grain and livestock, and the Han Dynasty issued a ban in order to sanction the Xiongnu, which improved the character of the Xiongnu people who like to take advantage.

The Han Emperor explicitly ordered any chamber of commerce in the Han Dynasty, any dart bureau, not allowed to provide half a cent of grain and grass and supplies, half a cent of water and half a catty of fabrics to the Xiongnu, violators were severely punished, three months after the ban was issued, the Huns took the initiative to discuss and admit their mistakes, think about the feeling of no grain and grass, oil and water, and cotton jackets for three months, and be isolated and helpless in the Saibei wasteland, so you can know why the Huns want to change their minds.

Economic sanctions are a very effective measure.

In the previous life, Sumatra did not respect the Celestial Empire, and the Celestial Empire only banned the import of Sumat's special bananas for a month, and the total economic production of Sumatra fell by more than half.

Now the county guard of Wu County has issued an order, but it has made the whole county confused.

Restrictions on the export of silk, grain, iron ore, gold and silver to Jiangning County....

The streets and alleys are talking about it, the county guard has a problem with his brain, Jiangning County is now like a beast that can swallow gold and silver treasures, as long as you give you something to eat, you can spit out the silver, such a good opportunity, the county guard actually took the initiative to abandon it.

The major dart bureaus and chambers of commerce in Wu County couldn't sit still, and they went to the county guard government one after another to ask for the opening of trade with Jiangning County, which was completely inconsistent with the policy between states and counties.

But Wu Guibao did this, but he also had no fear, the history of Yangzhou was covered with it, and the bureaucrats of the Luban Society were like dictators, the military and the government were integrated, and the county guard was also a local general, unlike Jiangning, where the military and the government were managed separately, which was also the most disgusting place for Sun Qi.

Jiangning County, on the pavilion in the center of the lake, Sun Qi and Feng Chuan sat together, talking and laughing, Sun Qi was relieved to have such an enlightened chief, but fortunately he was assisted by Ming Jun.

The two have their own opinions on the economic isolation of Wu County, and in winter, the lotus flowers and reeds in the center of the lake have been covered with a layer of yellow, as if waiting for new life.

Feng Chuan is not only politically clear, but also takes great care of his subordinates.

Sun Qi couldn't help but sigh a little, a few days ago he showed Zhang Wenzhong the drawings of the motorcycle, which frightened Zhang Wenzhong, and when he saw the complex structure, he waved his hand and said that he couldn't build it.

"Lord Sun, this ...... The workload of the past few days has been very large, this motorcycle, we are powerless, and Wu County has restricted the export of iron to us, and with our own county iron, it is difficult to build even the body of a steam locomotive..."

Wu County restricted the transportation of iron ore to Jiangning, and several other counties followed suit, reducing or even banning the transportation of iron ore to Jiangning, and Jiangning's industrial chain was disrupted or even cut off in a short period of time.

Who knows that Feng Chuan is very optimistic, in the face of the difficulties of his colleagues, this kind of thing seems to be strange, the iron production of the six counties in the south of the Yangtze River, if you want to carry the development of Jiangning, it is barely strong, this time the six legs are broken and five are disabled, and Jiangning is becoming more and more difficult to support and weak.

The design and trial of the motorcycle was stopped in the first place....

The commissioning and mapping of the rails also had to be suspended...

The manufacture of steam engines also had to reduce production, as it was already possible to create the most elaborate steam engines with the least amount of iron.

In addition, many other developments have been forced to stop, and the rest of the counties are watching jokes, and their inspiration and technology come from the newspapers of Jiangning Daily, and they have published criticism and criticism of Jiangning, saying that the transformation is disrespectful to the tradition, disrespectful to the innovation of the ancestors, in that era when the ancestors of heaven and earth are greater than everything, this kind of public opinion, the lethality can be described as not great.

"Wen Zhong, don't panic at any time, those drawings that can't be made will be suspended first, and when the chamber of commerce sent by this official to Jingzhou counties returns, then start those drawings, how long will this official stay in this county guard, he will definitely support your work, let it go!"

Zhang Wenzhong was moved, wiping his snot and tears, looking moved.

Who can have a good boss in this life is really a very lucky thing.

Sun Qi was also glad that Feng Chuan was in power and provided himself with a stable environment, which refers to any aspect.

"Lord Feng, Wu Jun actually took the lead in resisting us, and the household department of the imperial court did not take care of it, so we might as well do the opposite and use the methods they used to resist us to resist them."

Sun Qi then put forward five suggestions to Feng Chuan, since you Wu Jun took the lead in not selling iron ore to us, then don't blame me Jiang Ning for being polite, don't use the new things we made.

Feng Chuan looked at the frosty moonlight in the sky, nodded solemnly, the weather has been a little cold recently, and he couldn't help but tighten his sleeves.

"This official has already sent personnel to Jingzhou to seek support, and it will not be long before Jingzhou's iron ore will continue to supply Benzhou."

Feng Chuan is not a fool, the resistance of the people in the same state, he also saw some of it earlier, this is why Lu Ji went to Yangzhou Mansion, as a history of assassination, the mutual hatred of his subordinates, he must not look at it and let it go, otherwise the spark can set the prairie on fire, you must know that some counter-events in history are due to local mutual aggression, but the boss ignores it and allows freedom to cause.

Lu Ji went to Yangzhou Mansion to lobby Assassin Shi and try to persuade him to coordinate this matter, presumably the household department or the official department will soon get the news and will send relevant personnel to mediate the matter.

After all, in a state, everyone's ancestors were one family hundreds of years ago, and such a thing that broke people's hind legs was not very glorious.

"Lord Feng, all our daily necessities and luxury accessories should also be exported to Benzhou, and we can develop the market in Linzhou!"

Sun Qi threw the protest book sent by Wu Junjun into the fire, looked at the protest book that gradually turned into ashes, and suggested to Feng Chuan.

You must know that the luxury goods produced in Jiangning are not much now, but for the wealthy families in the southeast, they are all good things that cannot be bought with money.

As a result, within a few days, Jiangning County seemed to want to fight back, reducing about half of the luxury goods exports to the other five counties in Yangzhou.

What are the luxuries, nothing more than watches, perfumes, leather bags, etc., although these things are not practical, it is enough to use sundials and moss to see the time, perfume can also be replaced by spices, and leather bags can be replaced by cloth bags, but enjoying high-end is something that people of any era are very keen on.
