[There are no eggs left when the nest is overturned. Under the power of the country, no one can avoid it. Emperor Wu did everything possible for this decisive battle. He would never give the Xiongnu a chance to breathe. 】

[Men and horses make walls and gold pave the way. This is Liu Che’s determination. He will suck the blood of the whole country to fight this war! 】

[Selling officials, imposing heavy taxes, mass denunciations, and attacking relatives of the emperor all brought Emperor Wu a lot of wealth. However, if he wanted to launch the decisive battle of Mobei and wipe out the Xiongnu across two thousand miles of the desert, this was not enough! 】

[So, here comes the money-making method for people across the country! 】

[This is the famous platinum coin of Han Dynasty! 】

[The so-called platinum coins, just to put it nicely, are basically silver-tin alloys. In the Han Dynasty, the legal tender has always been gold and copper coins, not even silver! 】

[But any means of amassing money is not as fast as currency. Emperor Wu promoted three types of platinum coins. The first was the dragon coin, which weighed eight taels, was engraved with a dragon, and was worth three thousand coins! 】

[The second type, square, is also called ringgit, which is worth 500 yuan, and the third type is turtle coin, which is worth 300 yuan! 】

[Emperor Wu thought very well. Silver and tin are both cheap goods. Once this is implemented, a huge wave of wealth will be accumulated! 】

[But Emperor Wu is doomed to overthink, and the people and businessmen are not stupid either. If you take two broken things and add some patterns on them, will they be valuable? 】

[This kind of junk thing is worth three thousand dollars? 】

[You think you are a future club, and if you assume the identity of a stewardess, a female college student, or a model, the price will go up? 】

Cao Cao: “Stewardess? Female college student???”

“Club?”

Cao Cao looked curious.

In this regard, he hopes to gain more knowledge.

Liu Che looked embarrassed.

The sky curtain is like a roundworm in his stomach, and this platinum coin is also something he has been thinking about!

Even in his opinion, this can definitely attract a large number of soldiers!

But now it seems that… he is thinking too much.

But which link is the problem?

[Liu Che has obviously started to act like a gangster in order to make money. This is a money grab! 】

[But none of the people are stupid, so the showmanship appeared. You, Liu Che, are shameless and steal money, so let’s play hooligans together and stop playing! 】

[So, Liu Che minted platinum coins, and the people also made them privately. Silver and tin were worthless anyway, which led to the Han people playing hooligans together. The people boycotted the platinum coins while secretly making crazy arbitrage profits. 】

“What?”

“Minting coins privately is a serious crime. Aren’t these people afraid of death?” Liu Che’s eyes were full of murderous intent.

The eyes of the other emperors also showed solemnity.

These measures taken by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty gave them great inspiration.

The First Emperor murmured to himself, “This Liu Che is not easy to mess with. This will definitely cause a massacre!”

[It’s okay for Liu Che to act like a hooligan, but it’s not okay for the people to act like hooligans! 】

[Liu Che raised the butcher’s knife and issued severe punishments. In his opinion, if a group of people who secretly minted coins were killed to scare the monkeys, the people would naturally not dare to do so! 】

[But Liu Che was wrong. The profits were really too high. If you buy some silver and tin at low prices and paint dragon patterns on them, the profits would be hundreds of times higher. Who wouldn’t do this? 】

[Not to mention hundreds of times, even double is enough to make people take risks! 】

[Liu Che started killing people, but he couldn’t kill them all. The people he arrested accounted for 5% of the country! 】

[This platinum coin indeed brought powerful wealth to the decisive battle in Mobei, but the consequences were also huge! 】

[Even if he is as powerful as Liu Che, he has to admit defeat. If the killing continues like this, the population of the Han Dynasty will suffer a sharp decline. Moreover, the killings have no downward trend in private coinage at all. Liu Che ordered the pardon of the people who were in prison for counterfeiting coins. There are hundreds of thousands of these people! 】

[He also ordered that anyone who surrendered would be forgiven. As soon as this decree came out, more than a million people appeared! 】

[Liu Che completely admitted his defeat. He began to reflect. After all, robbing is a trivial matter, and the consequences are too serious. If he is short of something, can the people see it? 】

[Afterwards, Emperor Wu came up with the five-baht coin and returned the minting power to the imperial court. In terms of these methods alone, the emperors in history were really not as powerful as Emperor Wu. After the minting power returned to the court, Emperor Wu only needed to make some fakes. Use this money to exchange for various military supplies, rice and grain! 】

[This is a lot of money again! 】

[By the time the people came to their senses, the imperial court had already made a huge profit. 】

The words fell.

Liu Che’s face darkened.

The sky was almost like taking out his pants.

But these words also brought him experience.

The methods and disadvantages of making money are clearly displayed.

Liu Che’s face was lost in thought.

[But this is not the end. In order to raise a large amount of military power, in addition to starting with coins, Emperor Wu also focused onIt has become the daily life and food of the people! 】

[Salt and iron business, state-owned enterprises came into being! 】

[But there is a big hand above the sky, which is easy to erase, so it’s a matter of opinion! 】

[Up to this point, in order to fight against the Xiongnu and for the decisive battle in Mobei, Emperor Wu had resorted to selling his officials and conferring titles, imposing heavy taxes, conducting mass denunciations, creating coins, and creating state-owned enterprises! 】

[Later, Emperor Wu re-employed some businessmen, such as Sang Hongyang. In terms of employment, Emperor Wu’s meritocracy almost reached its extreme. Sang Hongyang was able to serve as prime minister as a businessman, which shows Emperor Wu’s broadmindedness! 】

[Sang Hongyang came up with two methods, one is called equal loss, the other is called equalization. The first one is to allow local governments to do business, and the second one is similar to an insurance company. The local grain harvest will be bumper, and the court will purchase the grain and merge it into the warehouse. Once a disaster occurs, they will be sold to the people at a low price. 】

[These two policies sound very good, but in fact they are not the case at all. When local governments do business, how can ordinary businessmen compete? The second one is even worse! 】

[Local warehouses often buy grain at low prices during good harvests. During disasters, these insurance companies hold a large amount of low-priced grain and sell it at high prices, making a lot of profits! 】

[Selling officials and titles, heavy taxes, mass denouncement, currency promotion, state-owned enterprises, all losses, equalization, these seven methods were Emperor Wu’s preparations for the decisive battle in Mobei! 】

[These seven operations have also laid a template for countless dynasties in later generations, which have been used for thousands of years. First of all, when you are an emperor, you must not take anything by force, and agricultural taxes must be low! 】

[If you want to make money, then use these means to make money in disguise. 】

[The people do not increase taxes but the state uses money. This sentence has been best interpreted. If there are no taxes, where will the money come from? 】

[Two thousand years later, in major feudal dynasties, farmers sometimes felt puzzled. After working hard for a whole year, they didn’t have much money left in their pockets during the harvest. When natural disasters came, they didn’t even have enough to eat! 】

[Where is my money? 】

For a time, countless farmers all raised their eyes to look at the sky.

This question is also a question on their minds!

As for the emperors, their expressions all changed.

[Emperor Wu gave the answer with these seven methods. From food, drink, housing and transportation, all aspects were arranged. Even though he had good harvests for several years, farmed diligently and saved some money, the hoe ended up breaking because of excessive force! 】

[Then you still have to buy a hoe! 】

[The common people are smoking dry cigarettes and thinking about this question again. After working hard for so many years, where is my money? 】

[The answer is right here. Their money has long been exploited by Emperor Wu in subtle ways! 】

[The truth of history is often cruel. The decisive battle of Mobei, Huo Qubing’s peak battle, and the peak battle of the Han Dynasty are definitely bright enough and exciting enough, but this battle should not have been completed by the feudal dynasty. A battle! 】

[It was Liu Che who sucked the blood of the whole country and released a series of demons that would affect the people of later generations. This was how he collected enough military expenses for the decisive battle in Mobei! 】

[Promote the soul of the Han people and establish the soul of the nation, so that in future generations, the emperor will send me to kill the king. Don’t move, otherwise he will destroy the country. But it is he who will influence future generations for thousands of years, squeeze the entire Han Dynasty, and make life difficult for the people! 】

[Qin Emperor and Han Wu, what they did should not be “good” or “bad”, and they were not “wise kings” or “faint kings”. There are no words in the world to describe emperors of this level! 】
