Chapter 61: Panic and Panic

The five-baht coin mentioned by Liu He is the currency that has been used for the longest time in ancient times, and it is also a coin that uses weight as a monetary unit, and has a far-reaching influence in the history of Chinese currency development.

In the fifth year of Emperor Wu's Yuanzhan Dynasty, the Han Dynasty began to issue a kind of copper coin with a round circle and a square inside, called "five baht", which opened a precedent for five baht coins in the Han Dynasty. Until Dong Zhuo took control of the government, except for the reign of Wang Mang, the two Han Dynasty were up and down for more than 400 years, and the five-baht coin dominated the world.

This kind of small copper coin is round on the outside and square on the inside, symbolizing the universe of heaven and earth, and the word "five baht" is cast with seal characters on the back. "Baht" is a unit of weight, about one-twenty-four of a tael.

In order to loot the people's fat and people's ointment, Dong Zhuo began to forcibly promote a kind of extremely light and thin five-baht money last year, which has no internal and external outline, and the word "five baht" is vague and incomplete, and it is difficult to identify, so it is ridiculed by the world as "Wuwen". Dong Zhuo's five-baht coin can be called the most inferior and cheap small money in the history of currency, and its value may be higher than that of fiat currency before liberation.

After all, the quality of Dong's five baht is again, but it still contains some copper, but the fiat currency is different, it is completely hard waste paper, and it is too hard to rub the buttocks.

Because Dong Zhuo is now perverse, the credit system of five baht has basically collapsed, and as for goods such as gold, silver and jewelry, they could not be used as currency in the Han Dynasty, but only for the purpose of wealth itself. Nowadays, people everywhere have returned to barter, which is extremely unfavorable to the trading and circulation of bulk commercial goods, and naturally hinders the recovery of Youzhou and Jizhou.

Liu He's proposal to implement a unified standard of good money north of the Yellow River was very bold, because such an approach was no different from rebellion, and at that time only the central court had the right to mint money, how could local states and counties do this?

But the situation has come to today's situation, Dong Zhuo is entrenched in the pass, and he is no longer able to go east and north, although he controls the little emperor, but the princes everywhere can completely disobey him, everyone closes the door and engages in construction on their own territory according to their own rules, who is not convinced is harder than a fist, anyway, a big fist always makes sense.

Although there is some taste of condemnation in the world, Liu Yu's identity can resist criticism from all over the world for Liu He. People in the world can accuse others of harboring the intention of usurpation, but they can't accuse Liu Yu, because Liu Yu also solemnly refused to ask Yuan Shao, the leader of the Dong League, and Jizhou Mu Hanfu to jointly propose that he be the emperor at the beginning of the year!

Besides, the promotion of good money on a local scale, after all, is a matter that benefits everyone, since someone is taking the lead, why oppose it?

After Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan weighed the pros and cons, they replied to Liu He and agreed to this proposal.

The talks have basically reached a successful conclusion here, but Liu He suddenly gave birth to two more "moths" here.

The first "moth" was Liu He's proposal to build Xindu City into a "free city" jointly managed by the four parties, without any garrison in the city, only sending some soldiers to maintain order in the city, and no matter what situation the parties encountered in the future, they could not drive soldiers and horses into the city.

This proposal is tantamount to a useful supplement to Article 3 of the talks, which is to build Xindu into a center for the circulation of money and goods, and whether or not it can be realized in the future depends on how determined and strong Liu He is.

Now that Anping belongs to Liu He, since he has this idea and has not harmed the interests of others, everyone naturally supports and agrees.

The second "moth" released by Liu Gongzi was not as light as the first one, and when he said the long-brewing exchange request to Guan Jing, Fu Zhu and Feng Ji almost didn't rush up to fight with him!

"This son wants to make a deal with General Gongsun, and I can guarantee that when he hears it, he will definitely agree!" At that time, Liu He said to Guan Jing.

"Please also ask the general to make it clear."

Liu He then said solemnly: "I want to use the rest of Anping's territory except Xindu to exchange people with General Gongsun." ”

"What?!" Guan Jing exclaimed.

"Ridiculous!" Frustrated and reprimanded.

"Childe think twice!" Discipline disrupts the situation.

"You heard it right! I used An Pingguo to exchange General Gongsun for someone back, that person's name is Zhao Yun, you know him! Liu He said it word by word, and said it very solemnly.

"Wait a minute, Childe, this matter is really important, I will personally go down the mountain and report to the general!" After Guan Jing finished speaking, he crawled to the northeast of Longyan Mountain.

After Guan Jing left, he said to Liu He with a dark face: "Young Master Liu, it's you Meng Lang who is doing this!" Although Han Zhoumu temporarily handed over Anping to you to take care of, what power do you have to give it to others? ”

Liu He blinked his eyes a few times, and then said something even more surprising: "Otherwise, after I return to Youzhou, I beg my father to give up the land of Zhuojun to Hanzhou Mu as compensation?" ”

"It's nonsense!" Frustrated, he walked away. Now that Han Fu and Liu Yu are huddled together to keep warm, even if Liu Yu is really confused to the point of agreeing to his son's unreasonable request, how can Han Fu really go to Zhuojun.

Feng Ji was hot-eyed, and shouted on the side: "Childe can't favor one over the other, why don't you see who is available on Yuan Gong's side?" It only takes half of Anpingguo! ”

Liu He smiled and said, "I think Mr. Yuantu is good, why don't you send someone to talk to Yuan Gong?" ”

There is no stubble in the discipline. Are you kidding! The old man is very prosperous under the account of Yuan Gong, if he follows you, who has nothing to do, isn't he looking for abuse!

After waiting for about half an hour, Guan Jing returned to the top of the mountain with a letter in his hand.

"Childe, General Gongsun has agreed, he said that Zhao Yun is not included in this entourage, but Childe only needs to ask people to go to see Zhao Yun with this letter, and he can be recruited. In addition, in order to show his sincerity, General Gongsun also agreed to hand over the hundreds of Changshan children brought by Zhao Yun when he joined the army! ”

"Hehe, General Gongsun is quite particular! Zhilu Dao made a lot of money from this transaction, and he didn't forget to add a little bit to us! Okay, this is the seal letter of the Prime Minister of Anping, you can take it! ”

As a result, an extremely exaggerated scene in the history of the Han Dynasty occurred. In ancient times, there were the princes of Zhou Youwang's Beacon Fire Opera, and now there is Liu Gongzi who exchanged the country for talents...... Well, it seems a little wrong to pull these two together......

An alliance finally ended successfully.

In the afternoon of the same day, Liu He took 3,000 cavalry to the north without looking back, looking at the direction he was traveling, it seemed that he was heading straight to the real Liu Yu camp, but this time he did not plan to return to Gaoyi.

Li Yan and Zhao Quan's family are now in Gaoyi, and when Zhao Yun rushes back to his hometown to find that his brother has left, he will naturally go to Gaoyi to find people according to the clues left by Li Yan. When Zhao Yun saw Li Yan at that time, as long as Li Yan took out the letter written by Gongsun Zhan himself, Zhao Yun could switch to the new master without any burden.

The matter of recruiting Zhao Yun has become no suspense.

On September 12, Gongsun Zhan's general Tian Kai and Sima Liu Bei of the other department arrived in Nanpi.

"General Gongsun took people to Xindu, and he will return in a few days, and the two generals will wait a few days."

Gongsun Zhan's brother Liu Weitai said to Tian Kai and Liu Bei.

"I don't know if Bai Ma Yi has ever gone with Zhao Yun, the Jizhou Elementary School?" Liu Bei asked eagerly.

"Zhao Yun came to General Gongsun a few days ago to bid farewell, saying that his brother in the family was seriously ill, and now he is afraid that he has returned to Zhending."

"Alas, it's still a step too late!" Liu Bei sighed with some regret.

Liu Weitai glanced at Liu Bei and thought, "What if you come one step earlier?" Then Zhao Yun had already had a different heart? They all treat him as a baby! ”

On September 15, Gongsun Chan returned to Nanpi and immediately appointed Liu Bei as An Pingxiang, pushing the "Three Peach Brothers" to the forefront of the confrontation with Han Fu and Yuan Shao. Liu Bei has no opinion on this appointment, no matter how fat or thin, now he has a place to stay, the only thing that surprised him is that this Liu Gongzi who suddenly appeared did not hesitate to exchange a country for a Zhao Yun!

Big Ears also wanted to recruit Zhao Yun, but his current position of An Pingxiang was exchanged by Gongsun Zhan for Zhao Yun, which is really speechless when I think about it.

People are more angry than people! Why is it that Liu He, who is also a descendant of the old Liu family, can be so awesome as soon as he leaves Chang'an, but he is still sending people under the fence for a foothold?

Liu Bei thought about these useful and useless things with infinite resentment in his heart, and then came to Anping with the two thousand men and horses allocated to him by Gongsun Zhan. Worship the brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, naturally they are not far from the left and right, and Jian Yong, a good "friend" for many years, also follows.

Liu He, who was traveling all the way north, was not in the mood to pay attention to the movements of the three peach brothers, because he had just received a letter from his father, saying that the Xianbei people in the north were making trouble again, and this time it seemed that there was a lot of movement, and he was ready to cross the Great Wall and break into the pass to grab a ruthless one. The Wuhuan tribe in the area of Ning County and the Southern Xiongnu tribe in the area of Yanmen also seem to be restless, and they have the intention of taking advantage of the fire to rob.

There was such a big fluctuation in the north, and because Liu Yu led his army south, some people instigated behind his back, inciting these nomadic tribes who had never been truly honest to become greedy.

What worries Liu He even more is that the 20,000 people of Yan Rou's department, who went south with Liu Yu this time, gradually revealed their lazy nature, and actually began to rob the people in the Changshan area, causing trouble.

Daddy is a paper tiger! Looking at the violentness when going south, in fact, there are not many truly loyal and usable troops under his command, all of them are a cobbled together rabble, and it is okay to set up a pile to scare people, but if you really want to face the cavalry of Shanggong Sun Zhan, I am afraid that you can only escape!

Liu Yu could not wait for his son to arrive in Zhending and return to Jixian with him, so he ordered the army to pull out the camp and go north on September 13. The 20,000 horses brought by Yan Rou are really too unreasonable, they must be returned to Youzhou immediately, and they can't continue to stay in Jizhou to harm Han Fu!

As for the son who provokes trouble for himself everywhere, with the escort of 3,000 cavalry led by Xian Yufu, he will definitely be able to reach Jixian County safely.
