"Anyone who dares to continue to use the five baht money without the new money, no matter if they are powerful nobles or ordinary people, kill them all!"

"In my world, moths will never be allowed to corrode!"

"Continue to issue new currencies, ranging from small denominations to large denominations, so that people will not be forced to use five baht coins when changing money, and can use new money in small denominations to make money."

"Goguryeo is a low-level nation, and only China is a noble nation. Change Goguryeo to Lower Goguryeo."

"There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two monarchs in the country. No one in this world can sit on an equal footing with me, not even half a level lower. Let the Xiongnu be demoted!"

"My Daxin has the East Sea, the South Sea and the North Sea. How can I not have the West Sea? This is not in line with the prosperity of my Daxin Dynasty! Let the Qiang people sell their West Sea (Qinghai Lake) to us, and if they don't sell it, they will be exterminated!"

"It's okay for them to annex land in the past. Anyway, it's Liu Han's country that's been corrupted. Now it's my country. Who dares to continue doing this and destroy his nine clans!"

"Whether it's the Western Regions, the grasslands, or other areas, all barbarians must come to Chang'an every year to pay tribute to Daxin, and Daxin wants all nations to come to court!"

"Strictly investigate the possession of five baht coins, and all five baht coins must be exchanged for new money at the government!"

Following the failure of the second reform three years ago, Wang Mang was extremely angry. He held a court meeting and announced the third reform.

Dare to stop the reformers, kill without mercy!

The reason why Wang Mang had to let people in the world exchange the five baht money for new money was actually to find out how much money the tyrants had hidden.

He used to belong to the Wang family. Although he was not a core member of the Wang family and did not know the specific wealth of the Wang family, he also understood that the Wang family definitely had more than 200 million yuan.

In the past, Emperor Wu carried out the decree of reckoning, allowing people in the world to report their property, and property taxes were collected based on the reported property.

The Wang family of Liaodong then reported that their property was only 200 million yuan in total.

Like the Wang family, many families also falsely reported their assets. They clearly had assets of hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars, but they reported to the court that their family's assets were only hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In order to find out how much assets these people had, Emperor Wu then issued an order to encourage those who inadvertently knew the truth to report the tycoons who concealed their assets.

In the end, many tyrants were accused of killing their families, and the rest of the tyrants learned to be smart and knew how to collude with local officials.

Didn't you, Liu Che, want to report on the local tyrants for concealing their property?
Well, I will expand the tyrannical and powerful, and define rich peasants as tyrannical, and even ordinary people as tyrannical, arrange entrustment to report on rich peasants and ordinary people, and ruin the rich peasants and ordinary people together.

Comparing and consuming a lot, see if our powerful gentry was killed by the order first, or your own peasants of Liu Che were killed by the order first.

Even Wang Mang, who used to be a child of the Wang family, didn't know how huge the Wang family's wealth was. It can be seen that outsiders can't imagine how terrifying the wealth of a powerful and powerful family is.

Wang Mang asked the people of the world to exchange the five baht money for new money. In fact, it was through this method that the powerful gentry exchanged the five baht money they had privately kept in their homes for new money, so that he, Wang Mang, could know how much cash the powerful gentry had up.

But doing so is only to know the amount of cash. The real main property of the tyrants is in the property and fields.

However, Wang Mang was too stingy and the weight of the new money he issued was too light. In fact, he used a light copper coin to forcibly exchange a heavy copper coin from the people's homes, and then the heavy copper coin could be recast into ten light coins. New copper coins, ten light new copper coins are forcibly exchanged for ten heavy five baht coins, and then ten heavy five baht coins can be recast into one hundred light new coins, and one hundred light new coins are forcibly exchanged In exchange for one hundred heavy five baht coins in the hands of the common people, such an infinite cycle, if nothing unexpected happens, in theory, as long as one copper coin, the copper coins of the whole world can be exchanged in the end.

This is naked cutting leeks!Even more shameless than Emperor Wu's White Deer coin! (Wang Mang's new coin and Emperor Wu's White Deer coin are equivalent to the golden round coupons of later generations, relying on excessive currency to harvest leeks)
……

Two years later

Tianfeng three years
Wang Mang's third reform failed again.

No one in the world is willing to use his leek-cutting currency, and everyone still uses five baht.

Wang Mang's officials also took the opportunity to make a fortune, and forcibly exchanged the small money in their own hands for other people's big money.

As Wang Mang failed three consecutive reforms, the people all over the world also became more hungry and cold under his coquettish operation, and the number of refugees increased rapidly. The number of refugees in the Kanto counties has reached 700 million!

Issuing small coins to cut leeks harmed the interests of all people, whether they were powerful or ordinary people, their wealth was cut off by Wang Mang.

"I was so blind at the time, I actually thought Wang Mang was a saint." The old man who praised Wang Mang as a saint at the time was devastated, and all the little wealth in his family was cut away under Wang Mang's reform.

"Da Xin Da Xin is not as good as Liu Han."

"Come to a real saint to save us, it's really not possible, it's okay to let that **** man restore the country, woo woo woo—"

The people thought Dahan was dark enough, but they didn't expect Daxin to be even darker.

The harm of the two phases is the lesser. Under Wang Mang's random reforms, the people all over the world began to miss the big man again.

……

Weiyang Palace

"Hit! Hit the Huns!"

"As long as the Huns are killed, I will be a great hero against the Huns, and the people will support me again! I will still be a saint in their hearts!"

"No military expenses? Hmph! Stop all officials' salaries!"

"Move 30 troops immediately! Northern Expedition to the Huns! Immediately!"

Wang Mang's eyes were red. The failure of a series of reforms made the world even more corrupt. A large number of people starved to death in the last years of the Han Dynasty, and now even more people starved to death.

The people who originally praised him as a saint began to curse him.

The scholars of ancient literature and classics who originally supported his usurpation put the responsibility on Wang Mang.

Scholars of ancient literature and classics are unwilling to admit that Ji Zhou's system is not suitable for the present, and they are even less willing to admit that it is the system of saints that has made the world more corrupt.

They accused Wang Mang of not knowing the real ancient texts and classics, accused Wang Mang of not knowing the real Zhou rituals, and accused Wang Mang of not knowing the real Ji Zhou.

They put all the responsibility on the elected emperor Wang Mang alone.

"Retro is not thorough, it is not retro at all!"

"We are the real Zhou Li retro school!"

"The name of the country is changed to Zhou, and the emperor's surname is changed to Ji, so that it is enough to be retro. All the territories that the Zhou Dynasty did not have will be returned to the barbarians, and only the territories that the Great Zhou once occupied will be kept. This is the real retro, and this can truly save the world. !"

"Wang Mang's retro is not thorough enough, he didn't abolish the prefecture and county system, this is a betrayal of retro!"

"The reason why the reform failed is not because the saint system is useless, but because the saint system implemented by Wang Mang is not enough saints. We will never admit that Wang Mang's saint system is the real saint system!"

How much the scholars of ancient literature and classics supported Wang Mang at the beginning, and how much they despise Wang Mang now.

They expelled Wang Mang, the leader of the retro faction, from the hometown of the "retro faction". They believed that the reason why the reform failed was not because the reform was too retro, but because the degree of reform was not deep enough.

Wang Mang, the leader of the retro faction, was expelled from the retro faction by other retro faction scholars.

All of a sudden, Wang Mang was deserted by everyone, no matter if he was the upper class or the lower class, no matter if he was selfish or selfish, no matter whether he was noble or despicable.

Everyone became the opposite of Wang Mang, and even Liu Xiu (Xin), a clan member of the Han family who persuaded Wang Mang to usurp the throne, began to curse Wang Mang.

"It was you who persuaded me to usurp the throne, but now you are the ones who scold me for usurping the throne!"

"Damn you all!"

Wang Mang has fallen into madness. He came to the altar and prayed to God to bless his new dynasty and to punish those who opposed him.
