I, the strongest poisoner, am called the living king of hell by the empress

The two of them were in a state of panic, and the two sides were in a state of panic.

Shangguan Wan'er, as a person close to the empress, was not stupid, and she instantly realized Gao Yang's purpose.

She was even familiar with this operation.

Because in Linjiang City, she saw with her own eyes how Gao Yang cheated those grain merchants to bankruptcy.

Although this is different, it has the same purpose!

It's just that the bureau that Gao Yang wants to set up this time is aimed at the entire Zhao State, from the emperor and nobles to the ordinary people.

How many people will die this time?

Gao Yang stared at Wu Zhao and Shangguan Wan'er, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.

This is his field.

I have to say, the feeling of cheating people is simply too wonderful!

Gao Yang's smile was very simple. He stood in the imperial study with a calm face.

"If the rich merchants and noble families want to make a fortune, they must increase production capacity and recruit workers to weave silk."

"People can earn more from weaving silk than farming, so they will flock to weave silk. Planting mulberry and raising silkworms is more profitable, which will lead to more people turning to planting mulberry and raising silkworms."

"In this way, Zhao State will have a large number of people engaged in work related to Zhao silk, and farmland will be abandoned."

"After all, in their eyes, as long as I make money, I will have money to buy food?"

"How much is a bucket of grain?"

"When a large number of farmlands in Zhao State are abandoned and His Majesty sends people to confirm it, the last step of this game, the harvest, will follow!"

Gao Yang was clearly smiling, but this smile fell into Wu Zhao's eyes, as if it was a devil!

Shangguan Wan'er also swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily.

Gao Yang continued to talk, like a ruthless and indifferent god of death.

"Once the time is right, your majesty can order Daqian to not wear Zhao Gao at all, and at the same time announce the severance of diplomatic relations with Zhao State!"

"In this way, the price of Zhao Gao will plummet instantly, and the worst thing is that their farmland will be abandoned, food will be in short supply, and the price of food will rise sharply. Daqian can take the opportunity to raise the price of food ten times or even a hundred times to reap the wealth of Zhao State!"

"By then, countless merchants in Zhao State will go bankrupt, and countless people in Zhao State will starve to death because they can't afford food!"

"Even the merchants who made a fortune from the price increase of Zhao Gao will quickly go bankrupt and return their money because Zhao Gao is worthless and food prices soar!"

"Daqian can not only make a fortune, but also make Zhao State's economy collapse without spending a single soldier, and the people will suffer!"

Buzz!

As Gao Yang's voice fell.

Outside the imperial study, a breeze blew.

Rattling.

An ancient book on the dragon table was blown and rustled.

Wu Zhao and Shangguan Wan'er looked at Gao Yang with fear.

First, they issued an order to raise the price of Zhao Gao, and then used the profit-seeking nature of merchants to drive a large number of people in Zhao to plant mulberry and raise silkworms, and go to weave silk!

In this way, the farmland was abandoned, and Daqian did the opposite, bursting the bubble of Zhao Gao, raising grain prices, and making a fortune.

Daqian did not spend a single soldier, and the economy of Zhao collapsed without bloodshed, and the people were living in misery.

Wu Zhao shook subconsciously, and a storm was set off in her heart.

This game was too cruel, even ten times more cruel than the monkey game in the Golden Palace!

Shangguan Wan'er was also shocked. Gao Yang's face looked like a devil in her eyes.

Is this really the eldest son of the Duke of Dingguo's mansion who came from a hundred-year-old military family?

Is he really a descendant of a military family?

Cruel!

Too cruel!

Just by Gao Yang's description, she seemed to see all the people of Zhao State flocking to do Zhao Gao's work.

They thought they could get rich, but in fact, it was a nightmare and an abyss!

The surge in food prices will be a huge disaster!

Gao Yang took advantage of Wu Zhao's shock and had no time to take care of him, and couldn't help but glance at him a few more times.

Not bad!

It's very moist just by looking at it.

Tsk tsk.

Of course, Gao Yang still has a very moral code, he continued.

"Your Majesty, not only that, once the grain price in Zhao State soars, we can not only take advantage of this situation to reap the wealth of Zhao State, but also arrange for internal help to enter Zhao State."

"I am very lucky, and I have come up with a few clever ideas."

Wu Zhao couldn't help but look at Gao Yang, "What clever ideas are they?"

"When my Daqian internal help enters Zhao State, we can spread rumors all over Zhao State, bury a note in the belly of a fish saying "Daqian will prosper, Zhao will perish", and a white fox will speak human words in the mountains in the middle of the night, and the sky is not in Zhao!"

"A Cyclops can also be dug out in the Yellow River area..."

"Three people make a tiger, and rumors will spread!"

"The people are not full to eat, and facing the sky's high food prices, it is a good time to be confused. Then the Zhao Kingdom will be in chaos, and I will be able to reap the benefits!"

The words fell.

Wu Zhao and Shangguan Wan'er both looked at Gao Yang in disbelief.

Their eyes widened and their hearts trembled.

For the common people, as long as they can have a full stomach, they will not rebel. But if they cannot have a full stomach, they are ignorant and believe in gods...

If they were provoked like this again, what would they do?

The people must be displaced and corpses litter the fields!

And what kind of tricks are these, including paper hidden in the belly of a fish, white fox uttering human words in the middle of the night, and digging out a Cyclops...

Wu Zhao took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the rolling emotions in his heart.

Poison is poison, but she has to say that this plan is simply brilliant!

Take advantage of human nature, give small profits, bring the whole country of Zhao into the game, and then complete the harvest!

By using economic warfare to sanction Zhao State, Daqian could even annex Zhao State without spending a single soldier.

Gao Yang is truly the number one poisoner in Da Gan!

She couldn't help but admire: "This is the most vicious trick in the world!"

"Use the greed that everyone has to manipulate people's hearts, Gao Yang, I read you right."

Although Gao Yang used ruthless tactics, it was a great blessing for Da Qian.

As the emperor of Daqian, although she had some pity for the people of Zhao, it was just pity.

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if you think that the game of winning the crown is just taking advantage of human greed, you are looking down upon it."

"Oh? Not taking advantage of human greed?" Wu Zhao was a little surprised.

Shangguan Wan'er also looked at Gao Yang.

Gao Yang slowly said, "People have seven emotions and six desires, plus greed, anger and ignorance. This is a human weakness that many businessmen are aware of."

"But there is another human weakness that most people are not aware of, which is the inertia of thinking!"

"Shunzhao Guguan Bureau uses the inertia of people's thinking. When the price of Zhao Guan reaches sky-high prices, the people of Zhao State will not feel that Zhao Guan has plummeted, but will feel that it will continue to be in short supply."

"Or, although they know there is a risk of losing money, they firmly believe that they will not be so unlucky."

"Similarly, once the plunge begins, the inertia of thinking will make people afraid to start, thinking that it will continue to plummet."

Gao Yang's face was calm, and he was sincere about future generations. There are too many examples of this.

In the stock market, how many retail investors chase the rise and fall, and are played around by the bankers.

Even in order to play on the weaknesses of human nature, bankers will raise the stock price during the decline to attract popularity, and wait for the opportunity to kill them all.

All of this is taking advantage of human nature!

As soon as this plan came out, the people of Zhao State would only think that Zhao Zhen would be in even greater demand.

Of course, there must be some sober-minded people who remain skeptical, but this group of people will also deceive themselves and get lost in Zhao Zhen's sudden rise.

"Thinking inertia..." Wu Zhao murmured to himself, and a sudden realization came to his mind.

Gao Yang's words shocked her greatly.

It even made her understand that war is not just a frontal fight, but also an economic war that kills without blood!

Economic warfare is more hidden and more difficult to deal with. Once successful, it will be as powerful as a national war!
