Chapter 498: Rekindling the Soul of a Loser
Control the numbers?
When everyone heard what Liu Mang said, they were a little confused.
Could it be that by controlling the numbers, you can defeat the powerful Cao Cao?
Ordinary generals naturally do not experience the undercurrent behind the economic war.
Pang Tong knows quite well that every move of Liu Mang is like dancing on the tip of a knife!
As long as you are not careful, it is very likely that you will lose the whole game!
Fortunately, Liu Mang made the right bet every step, whether it was the fair tariff policy he sought or the tough response to Cao Cao, Liu Mang took the initiative.
"Shizi, what do you mean by controlling numbers?"
"Sir asked a good question, I said before that food is the heart of the people."
Liu Mang said with a smile: "Today, the main grains of the people are millet, wheat, rice, soybean, millet, hemp, etc. ”
"I think soybeans are a good choice, and if this thing is used properly, it will definitely help my father defeat Cao Cao."
"So our first step is to find a way to raise the price of soybeans!"
Soybean? Price? Still want to stir it up?
At least in Pang Tong's cognition, the soybeans that Liu Mang said are just medicinal herbs.
Nourishes qi and moisturizes the skin.
Boiling juice can moisten the spleen and dryness, so it can eliminate dysentery.
Widen the middle and lower qi, benefit the large intestine, eliminate water swelling, and treat swelling and poison.
These are the effects of soybeans, is it possible that Gongzi wants Cao Cao to eat soybeans by mistake and jump himself to death with a fart?
"So, the next thing to do is to rely on the Mi caravan."
"Give me a high price and high yield to buy soybeans!"
"Taking advantage of the middle of winter now, this matter cannot be delayed, I want the Central Plains to plant soybeans next year!"
For Liu Mang's such a big smart behavior, the generals were quite puzzled.
"Childe...... If you think soybeans are good, why not let Jiaozhou plant them in the rear? ”
"The large-scale purchase of soybeans is quite detrimental to our army!"
"And it's cheap, so why buy it at a high price?"
Zhao Yun really didn't understand, and directly asked the doubts in his heart.
Zhang Fei quietly pulled Guan Yu and asked softly: "Second brother, why do I think it's better to fight?" ”
"If there is a war, at least the eldest nephew will not be idle, and he will not think about the loser!"
"Spending a lot of money to buy so many soybeans, I don't think it's reliable!"
Guan Yu stroked his beautiful hair and nodded, "Wait for me to repair a book and give it to my eldest brother, so that he can persuade Mang'er!" ”
The two brothers only regretted letting Liu Mang return to Jingzhou, it seemed that as long as they returned here, Liu Mang would rekindle the soul of the loser!
"Fourth Uncle Zhao, what I'm telling you now, I'm afraid you won't understand."
"You just need to know that I have been laying out for many years, just for today!"
"The opportunity to grasp the enemy's lifeblood is right now, you just have to believe me!"
Liu Mang's mind has been decided, and everyone will no longer persuade him, just as his own son and loser.
Only Mi Zhu understands that his nephew is by no means the same loser as before.
"Big brother! Do we really want to do what Mang'er says? ”
Mi Fang cautiously asked, because of Liu Mang's relationship, their Mi family's status can be said to be rising.
But Mi Zhu was not proud of his pampering, but warned Mi Fang many times not to be careless.
"Naturally, I want to do it, Yu Gongmang'er is the king, you and I are the minister!"
"Yu Private, if you and my uncle don't support Mang'er, how helpless is he?"
"Inform the Mi clan caravan that the purchase of soybeans will start today, and the price will be increased by five times for me!"
Mi Fang took a deep breath, this can be described as a big gamble!
It is very likely that the savings of these years will be wasted because of Liu Mang's move.
"Yes, big brother!"
……
Chengdu.
Liu Mang's high-price and high-volume purchase of soybeans not only occurred in the Central Plains, but also in Yizhou and Jingzhou.
"Rebel! Put on airs! Bear kids! ”
Liu Bei scolded three times in a row above the main hall, but he still felt that it was not enjoyable.
Jiang Wan stubbornly continued to report.
"The King...... The purchase of soybeans by the prince has already cost 1.5 million yuan! ”
Hearing this, Liu Bei almost fainted, what is going on with this rebel?
What's the use of those soybeans?
After eating it, it will only make people swell.
"King! The prince is stubborn and wastes the treasury, and I hope the king will stop it in time! ”
Xu Jing has long been dissatisfied with Liu Mang, and he will naturally not let go of the opportunity to make trouble.
"King! I also feel that the move of the prince is really a loser, and it may be difficult to convince the public! ”
Jiang Wan raised his eyes and saw that the person who spoke surprised him!
Li Zhengfang?
Li Yan looked at Jiang Wan, and then stopped looking at him.
As a talent promoted by Liu Mang in Jingzhou, I didn't expect Li Yan to refute Liu Mang?
"King! This matter can't be left to the world! ”
"If that's the case, I'm afraid the treasury won't be able to support the prince's misdeeds at all!"
"Such a ruined behavior, the country is not a country, the king!"
The ministers all began to beg Liu Bei to stop Liu Mang.
Liu Bei only regretted that Zhuge Liang was now sick in bed and could not come to the court at all.
Lu Xun and Fa Zheng are still in Liangzhou, and he doesn't even have a person to discuss in the court!
"King! Shizi has always thought about you, and I hope you can trust Shizi as before! ”
Jiang Wan bowed and saluted, he always stood by Liu Mang's side.
It's just that I didn't expect that there would be so many people in the court this time who dared to refute the prince.
How many people are for national affairs, and how many people have ghosts in their hearts?
Jiang Wan decided to find Li Yan afterwards and talk to him.
"This matter will be resolved by this king, and you Aiqing don't have to worry."
Liu Bei now shows the wind of a king - and thin mud.
Liu Mang's move has only two situations.
First, the rebel simply wants to lose!
Second, Liu Mang's move must have a deep meaning, but with the vision of the ministers of Chengdu, he can't see it at all!
Liu Bei naturally believes in the second situation, knowing that the son is Mo Ruo's father, he is responsible for stabilizing the ministers, and the rebel son is going to the waves!
Seeing that Liu Bei had already spoken like this, the ministers had to give up one by one.
The king of Hanzhong has already given face, and he can't be persecuted too much.
After retiring from the court, Jiang Wan just walked out of the main hall and saw Li Yan waiting for a long time.
"Gongyan."
"Square."
The two looked at each other and smiled, strictly speaking, they are both from Jingzhou.
"Zhengfang, why did you follow Xu Jing behind him today to attack the prince?"
Jiang Wan doesn't like to go around corners, he prefers to go straight with a single knife.
Li Yan thought that the other party would be polite, and couldn't help frowning.
"Gongyan, don't you think that Childe's move is different from ordinary people?"
"If such a person inherits the unification in the future, will it really be beneficial to the country?"
Before Li Yan's words fell, he saw Jiang Wan's face angry.
"Li Zhengfang! If you weren't a son that day, how could you be reused? ”
"If you don't want to repay the favor, you dare to question the childe?"
"I've heard a long time ago that you have a close relationship with those Dongzhou people, and it seems that you want to set up another mountain?"
Jiang Wan looked at his former friend with a look of disdain.
"Li Yan, I don't care if you are from Dongzhou or Jingzhou!"
"If you dare to make small moves behind the back of the world, don't blame me Jiang Wan for not recognizing people!"
After that, Jiang Wan brushed his sleeves and left, leaving Li Yanleng in place.
