    Making money requires copper as a raw material, and the output of copper is simply not enough.

    Dong Zhuo started thinking of a way!

    He destroyed all folk copper goods, bronze bells and other products and melted them into raw materials.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the 12 bronze statues made by Qin Shihuang's collection of weapons from all over the world, Dong Zhuo destroyed them all.

    With copper, we started to make money.

    Dong Zhuo did not follow the rules when he minted money. The coins he minted had a distinctive feature, that is, they were insufficient in weight, almost like missing a pound or two.

    If princes want to plunder people's wealth, the best way is to issue money that is not worth it.

    Although Dong Zhuo was a martial artist, he had a good way of making money.  So the five-baht coin that had been in circulation for a long time was abolished and converted into small coins for circulation.

    Since the small coin was cast by Dong Zhuo, let¡¯s call it Dong¡¯s small coin.

    This thing is so simple that it doesn¡¯t even have text, and the money edges and money holes don¡¯t have raised edges, so you can save on raw materials.

    It is a small round and flat copper coin.

    It can be imagined that the small coins cast in this way not only have extremely poor craftsmanship, but are also small and thin and cannot be circulated at all.  As soon as the people exerted force, the copper coins were broken.

    Compared with five baht, it is far behind.

    As soon as money became worthless, inflation began. At that time, the price of grain rose to tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars per stone.

    When the people of Luoyang went to buy grain, they had to bring two baskets of money to buy two baskets.

    Later, the people became smarter. Since money was worthless, they bartered and barely managed to survive.

    Dong Zhuo¡¯s tyranny was not only reflected in killings, but also in the plunder of money.

    Although in the end, the wealth collected by Dong Zhuo was all advantageous to Liu Ke, it did great harm to the people.

    If Liu Bei does this, he will certainly get money the fastest.

    After listening to Zhong Yu¡¯s explanation, Liu Bei understood a little bit.

    "You want me to re-coin?"

    "good."

    "It's just that Zhong Yu's method is better than Dong Zhuo's.

    "How to do it specifically?"

    When Liu Bei asks this question, does it mean that he is very interested?

    Because he is also poor.

    With just a few clicks of your finger, you can earn tens of millions of gold. I almost can¡¯t sleep just thinking about it!

    "This is easy. All you need to do is cast copper plates worth a hundred coins for circulation, unify prices, and force people to use them." Zhong Yu vowed.

    Dong Zhuodu only recast the copper coins, and the face value remained unchanged.

    Zhong Yu¡¯s suggestion was even more ruthless, and he directly came up with a face value of one hundred dollars.

    For example, a five-baht coin can be used to cast five Dong Zhuo coins. Using Zhong Yu¡¯s method, one hundred coins can be cast!

    A full twenty times difference.

    "What a brilliant plan!" Liu Bei's eyes shone. He worked conscientiously every day, working hard for the people's livelihood, and could not finish countless memorials.

    But Liu Bei is still working hard, busy until late at night every day, and as a result, he has not had any children recently.

    Why is he working so hard?

    It¡¯s not just to raise taxes a little bit to make yourself rich.

    If Zhong Yu¡¯s method is used, the efficiency of making money will be increased by more than a hundred times!

    A thousand times more than that.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????

    This is a good thing!

    Liu Bei suddenly became delighted, but he still remained vigilant.

    "Why didn't Cao Cao use such a good method?"

    Cao Cao is so poor, there is no reason not to adopt it.

    "King of Hanzhong, think about it carefully. Now under King Wei's rule, everything is under military control. King Wei's money belongs to the people, and it belongs to the people"

    Zhong Yu didn¡¯t say the next words, but Liu Bei understood them.

    "Is this plan worth three million gold?" Zhong Yu said.

    "This" Liu Bei hesitated. This method was of infinite value, but he always wanted to bargain.

    "The life of King Wei is hard"

    "Okay, okay, don't complain to me, isn't it just three million gold? I borrowed it!"

    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and decided to spend all his money to buy this strategy.

    "Thank you, King of Hanzhong!" Zhong Yu breathed a sigh of relief, the task was finally completed.

    "King of Hanzhong, there is one more thing"

    BellSuddenly hesitating, Liu Bei realized something was unusual.

    "How about we discuss it tomorrow?"

    Liu Bei couldn't wait to implement the plan. This time, he must do something big.

    Maybe he will be richer than Yangzhou.

    "King of Hanzhong, this matter cannot be delayed. King Wei is willing to cede Shangyong and other places. Please send troops. If we win, you can choose the land of a state!"

    "I'm tired, let's talk tomorrow!" Liu Bei yawned and even skipped the food and wine.

    He returned to his study excitedly and summoned Jian Yong, Fazheng, Huang Quan, Li Yan, Yi Ji and others to discuss the matter.

    "My lord, maybe Cao Mengde has bad intentions." Li Yan said.

    "He is indeed unkind. He lent me three million gold." Liu Bei said heartbrokenly. The probability of getting this money back is very low.

    "I'm afraid it's more than that."

    "Yes, not only that, he also wanted me to send troops, but I refused. He also tempted me with Shangyong land, don't even think about it! Shangyong County belongs to Hanzhong, and it was Cao Mengde who took it! Sooner or later, I will get it back."

    Everyone looked strange.

    How did you come to Hanzhong?

    They were the ones who robbed Cao Cao!

    ¡°It¡¯s just that it¡¯s hard to say this kind of thing, and everyone¡¯s opinion is reasonable.

    "How about this plan? Who is responsible for executing it?" Liu Bei said excitedly.

    Making money is a big deal.

    "My lord, leave it to me!" Li Yan stood up and said.

    Fazheng showed hesitation, but finally said nothing.

    In order to make Yizhou strong, this is the only way.

    "good!"

    Seeing that no one objected, Liu Bei handed the matter over to Li Yan.

    After Li Yan received the order, he began to collect copper materials, but where the hell is Yizhou?

    There is still some profit from growing food, but everything else is useless.

    "The country is small and the people are few."

    For this reason, Li Yan could only order that all the copper bed frames among the people be destroyed and used to make money.

    Like some kind of bronze statue, it was torn down to the ground.

    This incident aroused resentment among the people of Yizhou, but they finally tolerated it.

    If you like to toss, go ahead and do it!

    It¡¯s just a little bit of copper.

    Under Li Yan¡¯s encouragement, some people even shouted the slogan:

    ??¡ª¡ªWe must support the King of Hanzhong even though we are trying to sell iron at all costs!  For the great cause of the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty, we must also contribute!

    With united efforts, the first batch of new money came out in just half a month.

    A five-baht coin has become a "hundred-five-baht coin", one dollar is worth a hundred coins.

    In an instant, enough military expenses were collected for Liu Bei.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Out of???????????????????????????????????????????????? Wouldn¡¯t it be possible to have the salaries of all officials?

    Today¡¯s Yizhou has a population of less than two million, and the number of officials who receive official food reaches one hundred thousand, not including military expenses.

    ¡°And the wages of this group of people are much higher than those of the big-headed soldiers.

    Liu Bei bore the expense, which was very hard.

    Now it¡¯s finally solved!

    "My lord, the previous currency was five baht coins. You might as well give it a name to distinguish it from the five baht coins." Li Yan said flatteringly.

    "Let's call it 'Taiping Hundred Coins'."

    "My lord is wise! Only with my lord here can Yizhou enjoy peace and prosperity!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
