The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 352 Is this the ancient economic sanctions?

In terms of medicinal materials, the rise of commerce has led to a surge in caravans. Special medicinal materials from various places have made transportation much easier.

In the past, some of the medicinal materials that were inflated in price due to the difficulty of transportation, are now part of the street stalls, and the price has dropped sharply.

Many people who had no medicine to treat were cured!
Even some expensive medicinal materials were able to appear in various places, saving some important people and maintaining social stability.

The specialties in some places were originally very good and produced a lot, but because they couldn't be sold, they had to rot in their own homes in the past, but now, these things have the opportunity to be shipped out and sold!
Sell ​​the surplus and buy the scarce ones, and the lives of the people of Wei have been improved.

However, everyone is still not rich enough now, and the savings of countless people are only enough to take care of minor illnesses, and cannot afford serious illnesses, nor can they live in luxury houses.

If we further accumulate wealth, everyone's life will be more comfortable.

Jia Xu thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan. I can send someone to assassinate the Roman emperor. Once he dies, Rome will surely fall into civil strife again! At that time, Rome's national strength will be weakened, and we can easily conquer it!"

Zhao Feng nodded: "This plan is good, but I don't know if there are other masters in Rome, and do assassins exist in Wei? Even if there are, we still have to think about it."

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang was the first to stand up and made a suggestion: "Your Majesty, since the population is the most important thing, then Wenhe's strategy will ultimately require a battle, and there will still be a lot of casualties!"

"We might as well use business to disintegrate Rome's economy. When the time comes, the poor Romans will have no food to eat. We will give them relief, provide them with opportunities to make money, and then use this opportunity to control them!"

Jia Xu's eyes lit up immediately: "As expected of you! Your Majesty, this strategy is good. You can make the enemy surrender without bloodshed!"

The others also looked at Zhuge Liang with admiration.

Zhao Feng nodded and said, "Since that's the case, is there any clever plan to disrupt the Roman economy?"

Jushou immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Romans started the war in the name of grabbing wine! Why don't we export wine and sell it to them at a high price? The Romans love wine, and we have a lot of sweet potatoes and wine. I don't think so. In a few years, the Romans will drink themselves poor!"

Xun Yu also said: "We also have a lot of paper. This paper is easy to write on, and the cost is low. If it is exported to Rome, it must be a huge profit! Moreover, many raw materials for papermaking are in the south. The economy in the south is very poor. It can improve the income level of the people in the south, and let them know the many benefits of following my Great Wei, and it is easy for them to have a sense of belonging, gain a sense of happiness, and be more loyal to the court!"

Zhuge Liang said, "Your Majesty, we should also sell weapons to Rome on a large scale!"

"Huh?" Everyone was shocked.

Zhou Yu couldn't help dissuading him: "This is impossible. The Romans can dispatch an army of more than a million at any time. If they are asked to arm a large army, how can we resist it?"

Zhuge Liang laughed: "It's because they have too many armies. They will definitely buy a lot of armaments and further weaken the economy. If their army comes again, the rear economy will be weak and it will be difficult to maintain the war for a long time. We just need to stand in a stalemate with them In one fell swoop, they will have to retreat, and these armaments will be worthless by then."

When everyone heard it, it seemed to make sense.

Zhao Feng then nodded: "Then, since everyone mentioned this, let's select talents to implement these plans. All the materials and money needed can be allocated from the imperial court."

Everyone was overjoyed, and after they dispersed, Jia Xu went to look for powerful assassins in the famous mountains and rivers, downtown and wilderness. Organized a caravan, and piled up a large amount of domestic paper in Guishuang, and sold it to Rome in large quantities.

In Guishuang, Zhuge Liang not only led the army to strengthen Wei's influence here, but also took charge of everything to ensure that the direction of commercial strikes was correct, and he could unknowingly let the Romans enter the pit.

In Rome, Emperor Severus has been in a very bad mood recently.

Damn it! 20 Parthian cavalry, the entire army was wiped out. This is the last elite soldier in Parthia. After they are all defeated, how can they quickly attack powerful enemies everywhere in the future? "

"It's unreasonable! The infantry has also been defeated! The knights of the Senate have also been defeated? Waste, what's the use of feeding your Holy See? What the Lord, waste!"

"Who can tell me where my navy went! Why has there been no news for half a year, is it alive or dead, can someone come and talk to me?"

On land, the infantry and cavalry were defeated, and at least some people sent back news, but there was no news at all on the sea side.

"Millions of people, millions of people! How could they completely cut off the audio? They died suddenly?"

Severus cursed viciously.

However, what bothered him even more was that after his defeat, the forces suppressed by him now felt that he was a weak and deceitful person, and they rebelled again.

"Your Majesty, the Macedonians have rebelled!"

"Your Majesty, the Gauls and Celts are rebelling too!"

Severus waved dissatisfiedly: "I know, I know, just send someone to suppress it, just some fleas, hum."

Severus, who was in a bad mood, felt extremely irritable, so he yelled: "Bring the wine, bring the wine!"

The waiter quickly brought the wine, and Severus couldn't wait to pick up the wine jar and drank it.

However, just after taking a few sips, he immediately threw the wine jar on the ground angrily, smashed it to pieces, and shouted with his eyes wide open: "Where is this wine? It is clearly water! Get me some wine! I want it from Dawei!" wine!"

The waiter was helpless: "Your Majesty, the wines of the Wei people are too expensive. For the same price and the same quantity, if you buy a jar of them, we can buy at least a hundred jars! Their selling price is at least a hundred times that of our wine! You Don't you want to stop buying wine at a high price? It's out of stock now.

"Go for it, go for it! How stupid!"

The waiter shrugged: "Your Majesty, didn't millions of troops go to grab it? They couldn't grab it, and now the million sailors have lost it."

The waiter's words made Severu feel very aggrieved, but Severu clenched his fist, and when he wanted to beat the waiter who dared to tell the truth to death, he lowered his fist slumpedly.

The waiter then shook his head again and said: "Your Majesty, with all due respect, your army has gone to various places to suppress the rebellion, and the Senate did not have a good relationship with you before. Now that you are weak, I am afraid that you will never help again! What will happen in the future?" Let's stop talking about the crazy talk about sending troops to grab wine and forcing Da Wei to lower the price of wine."

Severus immediately went up and beat the waiter.

The waiter's mouth was swollen from the beating, and he still pouted his neck and said: "Your Majesty, it's useless even if you beat me to death. Now it has spread outside, saying that your slogan is so high, and now you fall so badly." , It is said that you have a way of killing your own people, but you can’t do it when you meet foreigners, and some people also say that you are a licking dog raised by Da Wei, because you directly sent more than a million soldiers to him.”

"Enough! Don't say it, don't say it." Severu almost collapsed.

This is too annoying!
