Chapter 130 6. Power is hard currency

In fact, this Liu Ba is an enemy of Liu Bei. Liu Ba was originally in Jingzhou.When Liu Bei was in Jingzhou, Liu Ba ignored Liu Bei, which hurt Liu Bei very much.Later, when Cao Cao called, Liu Bei fled. Most of the scholars in the Jingchu area came to defect, but Liu Ba was the only one who defected to Cao Cao, causing Liu Bei to be even more injured.Then, Cao Cao sent Liu Ba to take Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang. These three places were also Liu Bei's must-haves. Although Liu Bei snatched them, his hatred for Liu Ba was already deep in his bones. After that, Liu Ba took a detour to Chengdu and defected to Liu Zhang, but he didn't want to mess with you, Liu Bei, and Liu Bei gritted his teeth in anger.When Liu Zhang was stupid and invited Liu Bei to Xichuan, Liu Ba tried his best to persuade him: "Boss, don't let Liu Bei come, Liu Bei is not a good guy..." Although Liu Zhang didn't listen to Liu Ba's words, Liu Bei's In my heart, I wish I could boil Liu Ba and eat it.

Now that Liu Bei has captured Chengdu and blocked Liu Ba in the city, Liu Ba simply closed the door. It is up to you, Liu Bei, to be prestige. In short, it is non-violent non-cooperation. Now Liu Bei is convinced that only this Liu Ba is the one who can solve the problem, so after discussing with Zhuge Liang, he sent soldiers to go around outside Liu Ba's house, yelling: "Boss is here!" Ling, whoever dares to touch Liu Ba with a finger will kill the whole family, the Yi tribe!" Liu Ba stayed at home, planning to die, but when he heard the voice outside the door, he froze for a moment.Standing up and looking out of the window, I saw Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, both in green clothes and hats, sitting barefoot under a tree outside the door. When I saw him, I stretched out my hand and said, "Old Cousin, do you want to come over and set up a Longmen Formation?"

"Putting out the Longmen Formation? What can I do with you?" Liu Ba got angry and closed the window to ignore it.After a while, he felt that Liu Bei was really interesting. He had such a big enmity with him, but he ignored the past, and claimed that he would kill you a little Liu Ba for those who hurt him, the Yi tribe, and the Yi tribe family?Liu Bei is raising himself up and giving himself a lot of face, so he can't go too far. Liu Ba came out, sat under the tree, looked at Liu Bei blankly, not knowing what to say. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang ignored him and just played by themselves.I heard Liu Bei say, "Kong Ming, let's test your IQ on your debut. It is said that there was a general who attacked a city. After the capture of the city, the soldiers really looted all the gold and silver in the treasury. Now please listen to the question, if you were that general, how would you solve this problem and let the soldiers return the gold and silver treasures looted? return?"

Zhuge Liang said: "No one can solve this problem, only a bastard can solve it." Liu Ba was furious: "You are the bastard, your whole family are bastards!" Zhuge Liang: "Look at you, you can't solve this problem, why are you swearing at people?" Liu Ba sneered, "What kind of bullshit is this? It's too childish. I tell you that you two only think about murder and arson every day, and don't think about economics, so you ruined yourself." Liu Bei: "What is economics?" Liu Ba: "Have you heard of the state-owned economy? Have you heard of inflation? What are you afraid of when the treasury is empty? Power is the hard currency. You only need to build a government market and make a lot of money. Transactions are only allowed in the government market. Traders, send city management to smash his booth. You can only use your newly minted big money when trading. Everyone must exchange their gold and silver for your big money. You exchanged worthless big money for Gold and silver, won’t they be distributed now?”

Liu Bei: "Damn it, this trick is really bad... No, I mean this trick is really wise. Old Liu, I will leave this job to you." Liu Ba: "I won't do it..." Zhuge Liang: "Look, I knew he was just talking, and he couldn't do anything at all." Liu Ba: "You can't do it, let me make it clear for you." Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang winked and said, "Whoever thinks of such a wicked way will do it, so as not to let myself be scolded too." Liu Ba came out of the mountain to build a state-owned economy for Liu Bei, and exchanged the money of the common people for big worthless money, which shocked the common people and officials in Chengdu.Now everyone believes that Liu Bei is really generous, as long as you help him earn money, everything is easy to discuss.

As a result, countless dubious people came to the government office in a mighty way, begging to be an official. "Huayang Guozhi" records that Liu Bei has money and can finally give bonuses to his subordinates.The top four on the money list are Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, each with five hundred taels of gold, one thousand catties of silver, fifty million pocket copper coins, and ten thousand pieces of brocade.For some reason, Zhao Yun didn't get so many points, and Zhao Yun's official position was lower than everyone else's.This may be because Zhao Yun was too upright and couldn't accept Liu Bei and Xichuan's ingratitude, so he was criticized.

In addition, sending troops to Xichuan was Zhuge Liang's great plan, a great strategic conception.Without his plan, Liu Bei and others would still have to grope in the dark for an unknown number of years.Therefore, in addition to receiving the highest bonus, Zhuge Liang was also promoted to a military adviser general. Liu Bei handed over all the military affairs in his left general's mansion to Zhuge Liang. Only Cao Cao and Sun Quan knew how terrible Zhuge Liang's plan was. At this time, Liu Bei's military group used Xichuan as the handle and Jingzhou as the blade, pointing at Cao Cao on the left and Sun Quan on the right, stabbing whoever he wanted.

The general trend of the world has undergone a fundamental reversal, and Liu Bei has the absolute upper hand.It is not an exaggeration to say that Cao Cao and Sun Quan have their lives hanging by a thread. Cao Cao and Sun Quan were all shocked.
