My father is Yuan Shu?But I want to be a Cao thief

For a time, people all over the world knew that some people even got up early in the morning to line up, and all had to exchange for new coins to buy food, cloth, etc.

These things are all too cheap, and some are even lower than the initial price, which makes it impossible for local merchants in Jingzhou to fight back.

----

On the third day, more people came from all over the country after hearing the news.

As for the magistrates of cities and counties in various places, they first accepted bribes, and secondly calmed down public grievances, and they didn't see any bad things, but the common people were happy,

It is good to be able to take money and quell public grievances,

Turn a blind eye to this kind of thing.

After all, there is no risk at all in exchanging [-] copper coins for [-] Singapore dollars, and then using the new coins to buy food, which makes officials in various places not at all concerned.

Early in the morning, people had already lined up in long lines.

Pulling back the board and looking at the crowd of common people, the boss was also stunned for a moment, feeling a little emotional.

Then he hung the grain price wooden sign in his hand directly next to it, and all the people looked over and were instantly excited, three hundred yuan, and today it has dropped again,

Three hundred coins means [-] copper coins, the same as last month, but it is absolutely impossible to return the price last month, so that the common people are extremely excited.

"Fathers and folks, today the price of all kinds of food is [-] yuan per dendrobium, which is also purchased in new currency, but today each person is limited to purchase five dendrobiums, and no more can be purchased!"

"In addition, the price of all food in the future will not be lower than [-] yuan. It will be settled in Singapore currency until it is sold out, and it will be valid forever." The boss immediately made a fuss.

These ordinary people are all eager to try. They have more and more trust in the new currency. Not only the price of food here, but also the price of cloth over there is also reduced.

And there are merchants in all walks of life who recognize the new currency!

As a result, there was a long queue at the currency exchange office.

"Fathers and folks, in view of the recognition of our new currency by merchants from all over the country, and at the same time speed up the exchange, all exchanges today start at least [-] yuan."

The boss looked at the queue and shouted.

As soon as the words came out, the team was in a mess instantly, and countless people frowned, because the sudden increase in restrictions made many people not have so much money, or dare not invest so much money at one time.

But when they think of the discounts on various things, they feel itchy again.

"First of all, I would like to say sorry to the folks who don't have so many copper coins today. If you have any concerns, you don't have to worry about them."

"First, this new currency is a hard currency in Yangzhou, and so is its purchasing power. Second, merchants from all over the world recognize our new currency, so there is no need to worry."

The boss rendered a wave just right,

And these operations were all done according to Chu Feng's request.

Purchases are limited, and there is a minimum standard for currency exchange, which means that these people must keep a part of the new currency in their hands if they want to take advantage of these discounts. Under the temptation of the discount, the new currency will stay in the hands of these people if they want to come.

And Chu Feng has a big layout,

The coins are in the hands of these people, and if Liu Biao blocks the new coins, these people will definitely be unhappy, and there will be public grievances everywhere, and they will even take the lead in investing in Yangzhou.

If it is not blocked, the new currency will further consolidate its position and form a consumption habit, and no one can withstand this kind of discount.

The most important thing is that the new currency is really awesome!

No one can steal the printing, which ensures the status of the new currency. For this alone, Chu Feng's actions are for the country and the people.

"Although it's a bit more, you can exchange [-] for food and [-] for cloth. This price is very rare."

"Well, even if you run away, the money in Yangzhou can still be spent! Otherwise, you can buy it with copper coins, and you can buy three stones of grain for more than 1 yuan. It's better to change it!"

"Why don't we get together, each person will be limited to five dendrobiums, and we can buy them separately, so we can spend them directly, how about that?" Someone excitedly suggested.

For a time, this suggestion was adopted by everyone.

The coins were gathered together to meet the minimum exchange standard, and several people partnered to exchange [-] coins, and after the exchange, the buddy gave them a piece of paper, which is said to be used to exchange for food.

As a result, there was no way for several people to exchange food separately in the past. The purpose of various policies in the early stage was to lock some new coins in the hands of ordinary people.

Let the common people develop the consumption habit of new currency, and completely put down their guard.

On this day, although the exchange was criticized by many people, countless people left coins in their hands, and they all waited to exchange them tomorrow.

In short, the amount of new currency ownership soared a lot in an instant.

In a blink of an eye, the end of April.

After many days of trading, the new currency not only made the common people realize the benefits, but also made many aristocratic or poor families start to use it, and they also started to cash out.

There is no way, the new currency is much stronger than the five baht currency.

The credibility of the five baht coin is now notoriously poor, and many ordinary people are even more appreciative of the new currency, and they are full of praise for the new currency introduced by Chu Feng.

And this layout, in Chu Feng's view, is an initial success.

Whether he can completely control the lifeline of Jingzhou in the future depends on Liu Biao's next handling.

If he handles it properly, maybe it will only cause some public grievances in a short period of time. If he doesn't handle it properly, I'm afraid he can only smash the pot.

After all, by restricting the new currency, Chu Feng would secretly make people sweep up Jingzhou's food prices and cause public grievances. This is what Liu Biao is most afraid of and the last thing he wants to see.

As for this economic change, it was already the end of the month when it reached Liu Biao's ears. The amount of money in the hands of the people is terrifying, and they trust the new currency!

Chapter 242 If He Doesn’t Beg For Peace, Then Fight Until He Begs

============================================

Chapter 242 If He Doesn’t Beg For Peace, Then Fight Until He Begs

Xiangyang, Liu Mansion.

Kuai Liang's face was somewhat anxious, and he came quickly after the announcement, and said to Liu Biao who was feeding the birds: "My lord, it's a disaster!"

"Chu Feng is here?" Liu Biao stopped his movements and asked anxiously.

"Forget it, it doesn't count!" Kuai Liang nodded: "Except for the cities near Xiangyang, the new coins introduced by Chu Feng have flooded the cities in other places."

"At first they snapped up food in our territory and raised the price very high, and now they sell food, cloth and other things that the people need at very low prices,"

"Although the price of goods has been stabilized, the premise must be exchanged for new currency to buy. Now most of the people in the territory have owned it, and even many aristocratic families have profited from it!"

Kuai Liang frowned, this move was too cruel.

Although it didn't have much impact on them at first glance, and even helped to stabilize the market price, it is extremely dangerous for the economic lifeline to be controlled by Chu Feng now!

Liu Biao's brows gradually darkened.

"My lord, the promotion of the new currency has been going on for so long, but no one has reported it. Obviously... someone below has joined forces with Chu Feng and accepted bribes!"

Kuai Liang clasped his fists, which is extremely harmful to his control of the Jingzhou regime, so I have to mention it.

"Snapped!"

The bird food in his hand fell directly to the ground, Liu Biao frowned, and his brows were fierce. He didn't expect that Chu Feng's soldiers didn't come, but a wave of bribes came first!

Moreover, the promotion of the new currency is like pinching his throat. If a war really starts, Chu Feng will directly draw his salary from the bottom of the pot, and the people in the territory will inevitably boil.

"Zirou, in your opinion, what should we do?" Liu Biao said in a low voice with his arms behind his back. Obviously, he was also thinking about how to deal with it.

"Stop the loss in time, the economic lifeline can never be grasped by Chu Feng, the subordinates think that they should immediately check the new currency exchange and open the grain shops,"

Kuai Liang said with a frown.

"But you also said that most of the people own it. Wouldn't this arouse public resentment?" Liu Biao was a little worried, and he was also thinking, what would happen if food prices skyrocketed again after containment!

After all, although Chu Feng coins are used now, the price of food is stable. To put it bluntly, as long as there are enough new coins in Jingzhou, he can also approve this thing.

As long as his subordinate grain merchants also recognize it, the new coins will still be in circulation, which is also a good thing.

"My lord, at this moment, cut through the mess with a sharp knife and expel it directly to prevent further penetration, otherwise Jingzhou will be in danger," Kuai Liang said solemnly, clasping his fists.

"Zi Rou, don't worry!" Liu Biao raised his hand, he knew the Kuai family's control over Jingzhou, and it would be good if he used Chu Feng to play Kuai Liang.

Bending down to pick up some bird food, he fed the parrot two more mouthfuls, and asked, "Zirou, you said that if we exchange a lot of new currency, so that all of us can replace the new currency, how about it?"

"My lord, don't do it. Isn't this leading wolves into the house? Once Chu Feng moves, wouldn't it be..." Kuai Liang said anxiously.

"No, no, the five baht coin market is chaotic, and it should have been eliminated long ago. As long as we have enough new coins, merchants will recognize the new coins at that time, and we can completely get rid of Chu Feng's control, right?"

"In this way, on the one hand, we can balance prices and public grievances, and on the other hand, we can also reduce the impact of the five baht money on our Jingzhou. You must know that the princes from all over the world have used the five baht money to collect a lot of our food, grass and military equipment!"

Liu Biao's face was somewhat exhausted. Before that, Jingzhou was stable, and the princes from all walks of life were using five baht to collect money in Jingzhou. This also made him extremely distressed.

So many people don't trust five baht money anymore.

Now Chu Feng's move may not be a bad thing for him!

"But my lord, even if it is exchanged for new coins, although other princes cannot harm us, Chu Feng can still print more coins to harm us in Jingzhou!"

"This is definitely treating the symptoms but not the root cause! Besides, Chu Feng is eyeing Jingzhou covetously, absolutely not." Kuai Liang hastily advised.

"Hehe, isn't using five baht coins a cure for the symptoms rather than the root cause? Chu Feng Yangzhou replaced the countless five baht coins with new coins. These money can also loot the entire Jingzhou just like before."

"Nowadays, when replacing the new currency, at most only Chu Feng will loot it alone. Isn't that a good thing? What's more, Chu Feng has invested a lot in order to stabilize the domestic price,"

"If he rashly invests a large amount of new coins in our Jingzhou, it will only damage his own reputation. We can also use the new coins to harvest in Yangzhou. This relationship will be damaged."

The corners of Liu Biao's mouth curled up, and he smiled lightly.

In his opinion, this seems to be very good news.

"My lord, even so, how can we exchange enough new coins?" Kuai Liang frowned, seeing that Liu Biao was obviously very interested in Chu Feng's new coins.

"Hehe, I'm happy to see it succeed. Aren't they promoting price stability now? Then let them continue, but the authorities don't come forward for the time being, so as not to startle the snake."

Liu Biao raised his hand, obviously thinking a lot.

"But."

"Okay, don't talk too much, step back quickly!" Liu Biao waved his hand.

"No!" Kuai Liang had no choice but to back down.

----

Jian'an four years, summer, May.

Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao worshiped the world and comforted the ancestors, and even asked Chen Lin to write an appeal against thieves and spread it all over the world.

A total of 11 troops, known as an army of one million, marched southward, and the sword pointed directly at Xuchang.

He even threatened to end the war before winter, to restore peace to the big man, and to restore peace to the emperor.

As for the civil and military affairs of his subordinates, he ordered Ju to be in charge of the military, Guo Tufengji, Xun You, Tian Feng and others assisted in strategy, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were the vanguard generals, and Zhang He, Gao Lan, Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong and other generals were under his command.

It can be said that there are thousands of warriors!

However, before setting out, Tian Feng was thrown into a dungeon by Yuan Shao because of his disobedience, and Tian Feng's strategy was protracted war, internal military training, and external contact with heroes.

And use the elite to compete with the banks of the Yellow River, and at the same time divide the army to attack the left and then attack the right. In short, it is to avoid and not fight, but Cao Cao has to fight.

Facts have proved that there is indeed a shortage of food in Cao Cao's army.

If Tian Feng's plan is followed, once Cao Cao is short of food, the three armies will be defeated. At that time, with Yuan Shao's fame and background, he can quickly invade Yan, Yu, Xu, and Si.

In this way, who in the world can defeat Yuan Shao?

Of course, having said that, even if Cao Cao is defeated and Yuan Shao occupies eight states, it is still difficult for the Yuan family to dominate the world. One is that Yuan Shao is not capable enough.

One is that the struggle between the heirs is too fierce, and he is bound to become Qin II.

In this battle, Yuan Shao personally conquered and marched into Liyang. At the same time, he sent Wen Chou to lead his troops to seize the Baima main road along the Yellow River, and marched to besiege Liu Yan, the general appointed by Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao was stuck in Yanjin,

So far, the chapter of the famous "Battle of Guandu" in history has officially opened.

The difference is that Cao Cao didn't have Liu Bei's backstab in Xuzhou, Guan Yu's Wanjun and Yan Liang, and not so many generals to assist him, but without Xuzhou's loss,

There are more Sun Ce and his subordinates.

Compared with the same period, there are more troops, more food, more stable rule, slightly fewer generals, and much stronger enemies.

From a positive point of view, Cao Cao is not weaker than the same period but stronger.

Overall, this battle is still difficult for Cao Cao.
