Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 319 Financial War
Chapter 322 Financial War

He Huan was very smart, and vaguely heard the meaning revealed in Ran Ming's words.

Ran Ming wanted to borrow his own new money to replace the current Han, Wei, Wu and Shenlang coins in circulation in the Jin Dynasty, and become the unique currency of the Jin Dynasty.

The most important thing is that He Huan is a smart and pragmatic person. Ran Ming appointed him Cangcao Junjun of Jiaodong State.

However, the division of labor in this era was far less clear than that of later generations. Cangcao’s responsibilities were the Zuomin Department of Wei State (the predecessor of the Ministry of Household Affairs), which was equivalent to the director of the finance, taxation, civil affairs, finance, and public security bureaus of a prefecture-level city in later generations.In Jiaodong country, it is second only to Wang Meng's real power position.

"The kindness of knowing you, like rain and dew, is hard to repay in a lifetime!" He Huan firmly believed in his heart, and he will know Ding Ran in this life.With this understanding, He Huan began to think, what exactly does Ran Ming want to do?
The benefits of replacing old money with new money are obvious. He Huan will not superficially think that Ran Ming's efforts are just for temporary gain. More importantly, he is well aware of the conflict between Ran Ming and Wang Ningzhi.

Suddenly he remembered that the State of Wei had already completed the work of replacing the old money with new money. The old money that the State of Wei had replaced was not too much. It was about five or six billion yuan. The amount of copper mined in 200 years.

He Huan also knew that Ran Ming did not recast these inferior coins, but stored them in the city of Jiaodong.He Huan suddenly had an idea in his head, could it be that Ran Ming planned to invest the five or six billion yuan in the Jin market?

As soon as this idea appeared, He Huanliang was speechless for a long time.

If the five or six billion old money is put into the Eastern Jin market, it is enough to buy up almost all the commodities in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, including grain, oil, and cloth, and buy up the goods on the Eastern Jin market, causing the collapse of the Eastern Jin monetary system. Then Ran Ming can do whatever he wants to price the product.At that time, even if there is a bucket of grain worth tens of thousands of dollars, someone will buy it.Another advantage is that it can create a crisis of trust in old money, and introduce new money in a relatively easy way!

As long as he controls the Eastern Jin market, Ran Ming can make excuses, this is the fate of Langya Wang's offending him.It can be foreseen that even the Langya Wang family, whose king Sima will rule the world, will become a street mouse that everyone shouts and beats.When the time comes, the people who can't eat or wear clothes will vent their anger on Langya Wang.

Even if Wang Dao is reborn and Wang Rong is revived, the end of Langya Wang's family will not be avoided.

Thinking of this, He Huan looked at Ran Ming differently.

This King of Jiaodong is too ruthless, if this desperate plan is used, I am afraid that there will be no room for the Langya Wang family.A high-ranking family like the Langya Wang family will be ruined if they fight against Ran Ming, let alone him who is not a shrimp?To put it together is to move your fingers.

He Huan felt cold sweat streaming down his body in an instant. I'm afraid this master is not easy to serve!He Huan now has two choices, either resign and quit, or keep his feet on the ground and follow Ran Ming, it is not difficult to make a difference!
Although Cang Cao joined the army as an official, he was also Ran Ming's staff. He Huan racked his brains and hurriedly wrote down the regulations on how to start the new money exchange and how to control the money market in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.Because this charter was released in a hurry, it is very crude and full of loopholes.He Huan's purpose is not how to do this well, but to express to Ran Ming that as an aide, He Huan is still useful.

In just a few quarters of an hour, He Huan wrote the charter and carefully asked Ran Ming to read it.

Ran Ming took He Huanzhang and looked at it, with a look of satisfaction on his face, and said with a smile: "Not bad!"

In fact, Ran Ming didn't think so far, he just thought about how to imitate the Federal Reserve, control the world's currency by himself, and do everything possible to mint money to make money!But after reading He Huan's charter, Ran Ming's head was filled with turmoil.

In later generations, Ran Ming once read a book called "Financial Warfare".The author is Liao Ziguang, a Chinese-American who once served as an investment advisor to the famous Rockefeller Corporation.

In the book, hegemony, the most complex financial system in history, is actually the main means for the United States to rule the global economy and obtain global resource wealth through the central banks of various countries.The book introduces the fact that the central banks of various countries controlled by the U.S. dollar under the control of the Federal Reserve have desperately squeezed their own nationals for the U.S. government. The countless real cases are shocking.

Ran Ming didn't expect that He Huan proposed to use Ran Ming's new money to manipulate and control the hegemony of the world's prices more than 600 years ago.And put forward a specific action plan, which is to use the old money exchanged by the state of Wei to buy all the goods in the market of the Jin Dynasty first, and the avalanche of old money will instantly collapse the old money of the state of Jin, and let the old money of the state of Jin collapse. Old money becomes utterly useless scrap metal.Then Ran Ming can use the grain and various materials purchased from the Jin Dynasty to set prices freely, monopolize capital, control prices, and frantically plunder the wealth accumulated by the gentry for hundreds of years.

Although it was only a small compliment, it made He Huan heave a sigh of relief. Anyway, this is a good start. At least Ran Ming did not dislike him. correct me."

Ran Ming pondered and said: "It's just not deep enough, especially for the purchase of grain. The Jin Dynasty did not lack grain. No matter how you buy it, the common people and the gentry will leave enough grain to survive. Unless there is a natural or man-made disaster, this plan is possible. Implementation! However, to control the money market in the Jin Dynasty from food, many people will definitely starve to death because of the lack of food. Once this method is implemented, the people will be destroyed, and they will be condemned by God. Therefore, this method is definitely not advisable."

"However, with a little correction, it can be implemented perfectly!" Ran Ming pointed to the grain control, and with a stroke of a pen, changed it to cloth.Ran Ming sighed and said: "For the people, the most important thing is food. They can wear a piece of clothing for ten years, so in a short period of time, the people will suffer, but it can be tolerated. But cloth and various spices , wine, and other luxuries will only affect the rich and nobles!"

Ran Ming said again: "Besides, there must be an effective supervision mechanism, set up an equal-loss department, and always pay attention to the market. If you want to set up a tax bureau, you must establish rules, and pay more attention to planning than rules. So what does it matter if you don't plan to build?" Separate? Besides, the allocation of money and food should go deeper..."

Ran Ming spoke for half an hour, He Huan listened carefully, nodded again and again, and sighed: "Your Highness's words are really thought-provoking, and I will make His Highness laugh at you if you change it again."

Ran Ming smiled at him, and said: "It's okay, let's brainstorm, if there is anything wrong with this king, I also ask He Canjun to correct me."

Seeing Ran Ming invest in currency and the idea of ​​financial war, Liu Mo's eyes also brightened. Although she is a woman, she must have come from a family of merchants. She has heard and seen, but she understands it very well.

In this way, along with Liu Wei, Du Cong, Chen Ying, and He Huan, they perfected Ran Ming's financial war plan.

However, when the talk got to the point of excitement, I suddenly received a call from the concierge, "Xie An, please see me!"

Ran Ming didn't dare to put on airs, opened the door of the ceremony himself, and went out to greet her.Without further ado, Xie An took out a large stack of land deeds from his pocket, handed it to Ran Ming and said, "This is a little wish from Shao Yi, and of course it is also compensation for Shu Ping's reckless move!"

Ran Ming took a look and found that these land deeds were near Yanziji. Yanziji Ran Ming knew that this was not only a famous ferry in Jiankang, but also a key point of Jiangfang defense in Jiankang, less than five miles away from the Jiangfang military camp.

Ran Ming laughed and said, "The Wang family of Langya, who is as rich as an enemy country, is so stingy!"

Xie An chuckled and said, "You, please be content! The Wang family is not the Lu family. No matter how troublesome it really is, you may not be able to get it cheap. Even if you add our Xie family, you will not be the opponent of the Wang family either!"

It was only then that Ran Ming remembered that the Wang family was already at its peak, and Xie An had not yet become a prime minister, nor had he defeated Fu Jian to become a grand tutor. His opponent!

Ran Ming had already decided to use financial warfare to teach the gentry of the Jin Dynasty a lesson, so he didn't have any feelings for him. He took the land deed happily and said to Xie An: "Mr. There will never be a next time, if the Wang family is still bullying others, Gu will not care about the Wang family, if the Gu is in a hurry, Gu will fight Wang Xizhi in a fair duel!"

When Xie An heard this, he almost laughed angrily. Although you, Ran Ming, are only fourteen, no one knows that you are both civil and military, but Wang Xizhi is over 50 now, and he can't even walk steadily. Has the long hit the enemy's short?
Ran Ming invited Xie An to enter the mansion, but Xie An refused, saying: "The King of Jiaodong must not be careless, the disciples and old officials of the Langya Wang family are all over the world, from now on, we must take care of ourselves!"

Ran Ming never cared about the Wang family. In fact, every noble family, no matter Taiyuan king or Langya king, at the beginning of their family's rise, there will always be some talented people, just like the Xie family. , Xie Wan, Xie Shi, Xie Shang, and Xie Xuan couldn't become the first-class high-ranking family with Wang's.

Now the Wang family has started to go downhill. If Wang Xizhi and Wang Tanzhi had half the talent of Xie An, Ran Ming would be so worried that he couldn't sleep!
Although Wang Xizhi also has a son with extraordinary achievements, Wang Xianzhi is just like Wang Xizhi, just a scholar. Even Huan Wen's puppet Sima Yu dare not resist, so what is there to be afraid of Ran Ming?

"One hundred acres?" Ran Ming knows that the ancient land is not the current public land. The ancient land is one hundred acres, which is about [-] acres today, which is almost ten thousand acres of fertile land.

Ran Ming laughed loudly, the royal family of Wei State is thin, except for the prince and Ran Ming, Ran Yu is still too young.The royal family of Wei State did not frantically annex land.Ran Ming suddenly had [-] mu of land, he was pleasantly surprised, and he turned into a vicious landlord class?
