Chapter 74 Joint Economic Sanctions

"The Supreme can know why everyone only talked about things with paper and books, but not a word about spirits?"

looked at Sun Quan, who was sitting on the couch panting, and took Zhang Zhao's words before, but Zhuge Jin opened his mouth again and looked at him.

"What does Ziyu mean?"

Hearing Zhuge Jin's rhetorical question, Sun Quan, who was so angry, couldn't help but light up in his eyes.

"That's because of the wine, Jingzhou only collects grain......"

Seeing that Sun Quan understood what he meant, Zhuge Jin stopped selling Guanzi, and immediately explained the real reason why everyone only used paper and books to talk about things before.

You must know that in this chaotic and contentious world, in addition to those big families, in the eyes of the real powers, the importance of food is far greater than gold and silver, and it is a well-deserved first strategic material.

Therefore, no matter who the three families of Cao, Liu and Sun are, the control of food is definitely the top priority.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that in the previous objections of many people, it is not difficult to understand that no one mentions the drink.

After all, Jingzhou's 'hero wine' is the sky-high price of exchanging a bucket of wine for a piece of grain, and if it is proposed, it is too much to say, but it will also affect the business of ice muscle tension and books.

"It is a great blessing to have loyal and good ministers like Zhang Gong and Ziyu to complement each other!"

Seeing that there was a solution to the matter, Sun Quan, who was discouraged, couldn't help but sigh with emotion!

"The supreme has overdone it, and this is the duty of a minister. However, the Supreme has the intention of weakening Jingzhou, and I Jiangdong is only banned, but it is still a little insufficient! ”

didn't care too much about Sun Quan's praise, but Zhuge Jin turned to point out the problem that the ban on sales in Jiangdong alone was not enough.

"Why didn't the Supreme send an envoy to Xudu and persuade Cao Cao to ban the sale of this Jingzhou thing?"

After Zhuge Jin raised the question, Zhang Zhao immediately tacitly gave a solution, united with Cao Cao, and gave Liu Chan a full range of economic sanctions.

After all, compared to Jiangdong, Cao Cao, who is in the north, is Jingzhou's biggest customer. In particular, because of the colder weather, the demand for spirits such as 'hero sake' in the north is much higher than that in the eastern part of the country.

And this also means that the grain lost by Cao Cao is far more than that of Jiangdong. In addition, at this time, it was a special period when Cao and Liu were wrestling in Hanzhong, and I was not afraid that Cao Cao would not agree.

……

"Ziheng, you are so bold, you dare to hide such an important matter! If it weren't for Sun Quan's envoy today, how long would you want to hide this matter? ”

In May of the twenty-second year of Jian'an, in the palace of King Wei in Yecheng, Cao Cao, who was about to go to Chang'an to supervise the battle nearby, threw the seal in his hand on the face of Cao Pi, who was already the crown prince of Wei, with a snap.

It turned out that before Sun Quan sent an envoy to discuss with Cao Cao about 'joint sanctions' against Jingzhou, although Cao Cao knew that this heroic wine from Jingzhou was expensive, he did not know that this wine was traded with grain as payment. And more importantly, it is still the sky-high price of a bucket of wine for a grain of grain.

Therefore, after learning the truth of the matter, how could Cao Cao, who really rose by growing grain in Tuntian, not be angry?

Especially in this sensitive period of competing with Liu Bei for Hanzhong, it is not an exaggeration to say that this kind of loser's behavior is an enemy.

"The father is angry, and the son is guilty, and he is willing to be punished!"

In the face of Cao Cao's anger, Cao Pi, who did not make the slightest excuse, knelt down and accepted the responsibility very simply.

"Alas, that's it, get up!"

Looking at Cao Pi, who calmly admitted his mistake in front of him, Cao Cao, who was still furious, seemed to suddenly remember something, and then sighed and helped him up with his own hands.

"Before, I heard people say that you never drink this hero wine, and I thought that you thought that this wine was too strong, but now that I think about it, it's ......"

As he spoke, Cao Cao, who was known as a traitor by the world, patted Cao Pi's shoulder with some emotion at this moment.

"My father has worked hard all his life, and the weather in the North is bitter and cold, so drinking this spirit in moderation can be beneficial to the body and mind. The sons are young and strong, not when they enjoy themselves......"

I have to say that Cao Pi was able to defeat Cao Zhi in the end to win the heir, and he is much more clever than Cao Zhi in terms of how to behave and grasp people's hearts.

For example, the matter of the hero's wine in front of him obviously seemed to be a very unfavorable thing, because of its precise control of people's hearts, but in the blink of an eye, it turned the danger into a disaster, but it was also sincerely appreciated by Cao Cao.

"My son has a heart! However, the world is not at peace at the moment, and it is far from the time to slack off. Those who are kings should practice more and set an example......"

In the face of Cao Pi's 'pure filial piety', Cao Cao, who was moved, also lost no time in teaching him the way of being a king.

"Thank you for your father's teachings, and my son will order a ban on the sale of this heroic wine......"

After receiving Cao Cao's teachings, Cao Pina is also a person who 'changes when he knows his mistakes', and he should deal with this prohibition of alcohol.

"That's it, you don't need to come forward in this matter, it's better for Lone to do it, and when the time is ripe, you can abolish it again!"

However, before Cao Pi could finish speaking, Cao Cao waved his hand again to block him.

"Father!"

In the face of Cao Cao's 'extra move', Cao Pidang, who understood in a blink of an eye, knelt down again even with a plop.

……

"The King of Wei has decreed that in order to avoid the consumption of food, from now on, all shops will be prohibited from selling hero wine; In addition, all paper and books are prohibited from being exchanged for food...... If there is a violator, no matter how high or low, it will be punished severely! ”

In mid-May of the 22nd year of Jian'an, with Cao Cao's order, the northern Kyushu under his control immediately launched a comprehensive 'blockade' of hero wine.

Not only that, but even the paper and books were implicated and suffered a lot of losses.

At the same time, Sun Quan of Jiangdong also issued a ban almost at the same time.

So far, under the 'tacit understanding' of Sun Cao and the two sides, the two sides have joined forces to launch an alternative north-south strangulation against Jingzhou.

And with the opening of this strangulation, for a while, the Mi family firm, which originally seemed to be as prosperous as cooking oil on fire, seemed to be in a precarious situation in an instant.

"Guan Yu Pifu, Liu Chan Xiao'er, I want to see if you can still laugh now, hahahaha!"

With the opening of the curtain of this north-south joint strangulation, Sun Quan, who was angry because he cheated on the second master, finally has a channel to vent at this time.

It's just that what neither Cao Cao nor Sun Quan knew was that Liu Chan, who was jointly sanctioned by them at this time, didn't care too much about it after receiving the news that Skynet quickly sent back, and didn't show the urgency he should have at all.
