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

Chapter 160 Financial Crisis 【Subscription】

"How can Shouchun get financial support?"

After Lu Su finished speaking, he looked at Chu Feng with sorrow in his eyes. He knew the financial situation of Shouchun, and now almost all of the small inventory was used for subsidies.

This time Cao Jun wantonly destroyed fertile land, whether Chu Jun can have money and grain to go to war is still a matter of opinion. If this continues, the finances will inevitably collapse.
"What do you mean?" Chu Feng asked.

"Reduce pension expenses, halve all policies, follow Cao Cao's example, and tighten finances, so that the three armies can have food to go out and check and balance the world!"

Lu Su clasped his fists and said solemnly.

He is really helpless, pensions are good, but in troubled times, it is necessary to use heavy codes to spend money on these people. It is better to let these people change their surnames and continue to have children.
In this way, the population will be stimulated, and the pressure will be reduced.

"Hmph, Lu Zijing, I think you are confused."

"A country is a country, and a country is a country if there is a family. If the soldiers of the three armies are working so hard that they can't even protect their wives and children, how can they talk about fighting to the death?"

"Don't say that each family only gives 200,000 yuan, even 300,000 or [-], that's a matter of course. If I can't even deal with the widow of a loyal martyr, what's the use of me fighting the world?"

Chu Feng jumped up against the case, pointed at Lu Su and angrily reprimanded him.

"But my lord, the army has no food and the country has no money. How can it work like this?" Lu Su frowned and sighed in his heart. How could he not know what Chu Feng said,
But in troubled times, human life is like a mustard. How many princes in the world can stand up to dead soldiers, and how many people can live up to expectations?

Chu Feng frowned: "Is there no market for Snowflake Salt?"

"Xuzhou has already begun to curb it. In addition to the scuffle before, Cao Cao cut off the business path. Now, except for our own territory, it all depends on some contacts in Jingzhou!"

Lu Su sighed.

Snowflake salt is good, but in the contest among princes, unless the salt gets stuck, no one will choose to join the enemy.

"How much money does the treasury have?" Chu Feng asked with a frown.

"It's less than 50 million, and now Shouchun is waiting to be built, and the capital needs to be moved to Hefei to build a new city, warships need to be built, and roads need to be repaired. It can be said that there is no money in the treasury."

Lu Su cupped his fists and bowed, trembling in his heart.

He is not scaremongering, Chu Feng fought for half a year, the art of war said, a thousand-mile march, every day wastes a thousand gold, Shouchun is not rich at all, especially at this moment.

Hearing this, Chu Feng thought for a while, looked at Lu Su and asked, "Do you have a way to crack it?"

Lu Su pondered for a while, and immediately said: "Master, there is indeed a way to increase financial revenue and make countless money."

"Let's hear it!" Chu Feng was curious.

"Coining, the lord can mint coins to collect money, which can be regarded as offsetting the value of the money in the hands of these people, so as to support financial expenditure."

Lu Su clasped his fists and bowed his head.

Hearing this, Chu Feng's brows darkened instantly. He naturally knew how to make money by minting coins. Back then, Dong Zhuo minted coins and directly collected countless wealth.

Later, if he remembered correctly, Liu Bei invaded Sichuan and Shu, and because of the lack of military expenses, he also distributed hundreds of plants, which made countless fortunes in a short period of time and filled the treasury.

When he wrote novels before, there were a bunch of Shu blowers in the history group who thought that Liu Bei was helping the common people, saying that Sichuan and Shu had no copper coins,

This made Chu Feng very incomprehensible. Wouldn't the over-issuance of currency dilute the money in the hands of the common people?Shu Chui thinks this thing is for the common people?

On the other hand, Sun Quan, who did the same thing, was scoffed at by this group of people, thinking that Sun Quan was plundering the people's fat and anointing the people, and his personal prejudice was serious.

"It's not easy for the common people, how can we harm them? What's more, over-issuing currency is killing chickens to get eggs, and the way to create chaos. Now Yangzhou is not safe, so you can't do such stupid things."

Chu Feng waved his hand and directly denied it.

Although this method is very fast in accumulating money, the victims of the transfer are the aristocratic families and common people, which is not Chu Feng's purpose.

"Apart from this, Su doesn't know any other ways to fill the treasury in a short period of time."

Lu Su clasped his fists and shook his head. If he can fill the treasury without harming the interests of the people, he can be said to be a great talent in the world, and Zuo Shizhi's talent is not enough to describe it.

Chu Feng pondered for a while: "I'll figure out a solution for this!"

Lu Su raised his eyebrows. Looking at Chu Feng's appearance, is there a way to fill the treasury without harming it?Could it be business?
He didn't hesitate, and continued:
"My lord, it is said that Liu Bei has arrived at Moling, and he is preparing for the battle. He is an outstanding man in the world, and his subordinates, Guan and Zhang, have unstoppable courage!"

"Su believes that we should send troops to eliminate them as soon as possible, and calm down Danyang, so as to prevent future troubles!"

Chu Feng nodded, this Liu Bei really can't let him go, it's just that the three armies have lost a lot, and they are fighting one after another, so he is powerless at this moment!

"Putting down Liu Bei is imperative, but in the eyes of the various ministries, Liu Bei has nearly ten thousand troops in Danyang, and it is not easy to get rid of him."

Chu Feng said solemnly.

Danyang originally had thousands of soldiers, plus Liu Bei's thousands of soldiers and horses, nearly ten thousand people. Although the generals did not agree with each other and most of them were county soldiers, Danyang was rich in elite soldiers.

"My lord, why don't you promise Shanyue's interests and let them attack Liu Bei on their behalf, so that the Japanese and our army can spare their hands, and it won't be too late to calm them down."

Lu Su suggested again.

"This matter is feasible, so I'll leave it to you to handle it!" Chu Feng nodded, Shanyue can still be used, and only by expelling Liu Bei from Danyang can Yangzhou be fully occupied.

"No!" Lu Su nodded.

After a little thought, he said again: "My lord, what do you plan to do with the aristocratic families in Wu County? There are also Sun Ce's old department, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, etc.!"

"What do you want?" Chu Feng asked.

"Both Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong have the talents of governing the world, and they are by no means weaker than Su. They are even stronger than Su Liang in internal affairs. It's a pity to abandon them. My lord should send someone to invite officials."

"As for the aristocratic families in Wujun and other places, we can also let them stay in power until Shouchun, otherwise the tiger will occupy the place and change sooner or later." Lu Su squinted his pupils and said in a deep voice.

It is definitely not a good thing for the aristocratic family to have too much control. It is good that the Chu Feng regime is fine. Once something goes wrong, these people will be the first to turn back on their own.

"That's right, it's just that I'm thinking about how to check and balance these people." Chu Feng nodded, showing worry and a little irritability.

"My lord, the influence of Wu Jun's aristocratic family has been greatly weakened since Shouchun. My lord can balance the Jianghuai faction and Jiangdong faction, so as to achieve checks and balances."

"What's more, my lord is a descendant of the Yuan family, they dare not make mistakes." Lu Su chuckled lightly, stroked his beard and said.

"Then speed up the absorption of this group of talents." Chu Feng made a decisive decision. Before he took down Wu County, because Shouchun was besieged, he could only calm people's hearts and settle things hastily.

Now that Cao Cao has retreated, it is time to rectify it.

A place occupied by aristocratic families like Wu Jun must find a way to suppress it, otherwise this place only knows the four big families and does not know Chu Feng, wouldn't it be absurd?
"Okay, let's implement these things quickly."

"No!" Lu Su nodded in response, and strode away.

Seeing the back of Lu Su leaving, Chu Feng fell into deep thought. He had to find a way to replenish finances, otherwise Nuo Da's territory would really come to a standstill.
