Chapter 856
"Could it be that we just let that Jiang Chen call the wind and rain here at the truth?"
"Can't we just let him slaughter us?"
Cao Cao asked with some dissatisfaction.
Although he understood that this was already a trend, he just couldn't swallow it.
Why should he be restricted by Jiang Chen everywhere, making him seem quite incompetent in front of Jiang Chen.
"Prime Minister, it's not like you can't do anything!"
"We can operate in several steps and slowly dilute the impact of Jiang Chen's Huabi on us!"
"Then make countermeasures to achieve a surprising and winning effect!"
Jia Xu thought for a while, and gave an answer that pleased Cao Cao.
"Oh, come on, Wenhe, how do you do it?"
Cao Cao had a look of joy on his face. At the critical moment, Jia Xu still has to rely on Jia Xu to play tricks. He has a deep understanding of Jia Xu's plots and can bring him surprises every time.
"Prime Minister, the first step is to give some benefits to the common people!"
"Directly promise to exchange Chinese coins at the government, and you can exchange one yuan for two yuan, just like Liu Xuande and Sun Zhongmou!"
Jia Xu directly gave his strategy.
"Wouldn't that make the Prime Minister suffer even more, and how much more money will the Ministry of Households pay?"
Cheng Yu asked puzzledly.
It wasn't just him, even Cao Cao looked confused, but his city was quite deep, he didn't show it, he just let Jia Xu continue talking.
Sometimes, if you don't hear the last step of Jia Xu's strategy, you can't understand his intentions at all.
"The money is apparently given to the common people!"
"In fact, they will eventually flow into the government, into the household department!"
"It's just a temporary benefit for the common people!"
"Just imagine, with such a huge advantage to take advantage of, will those common people object to exchanging Chinese currency for our currency?"
Hearing Jia Xu's words, everyone present was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
It turned out that this was the idea, but now the common people are a little bit against exchanging their own currency.
The main reason is because Jiang Chen's Chinese currency is very strong. This newly minted currency is generally not well accepted by everyone.
But Xu Zhiyi, with such a huge discount, the common people will definitely choose to exchange immediately.
This saves the government a lot of trouble. Even if it is the territory of Sun Quan and Liu Bei, if it is enforced, it will consume more manpower and financial resources.
On the contrary, it will create a confrontation between the government and the people.
But Jia Xu's method allowed the people to exchange currency voluntarily without resenting the government.
This move must be said to be very clever.
"Wen He's idea is brilliant!"
"Indeed, instead of confronting the people and enforcing it, it is better to let the people exchange it voluntarily!"
"In this way, there is no need to spend a huge amount of government power, and there is no need to confront the people!"
"It's a feasible solution!"
Cao Cao also nodded. After weighing the pros and cons, he immediately realized the importance of this point.
As long as Jia Xu's method is adopted, the confrontation between Cao Cao and the people will be reduced. Now the people don't have a good impression of these rulers.
If the people can benefit, they may think of Cao Cao even more.
"What about the second step??"
At this moment, Cao Cao already had some expectations for Jia Xu's thoughts.
He also hopes that this matter can be resolved satisfactorily, so that there will be no public grievances, which will be extremely detrimental to his future rule.
"The second step is to strengthen our country's commercial exchanges!"
"We must find a way to attract businessmen from all over the world to Xuchang!"
"This can make our country more prosperous, otherwise, all those businessmen will be robbed by Jiang Chen!"
"There's not much space we can get!"
"With more businessmen, we can stimulate the development of commerce, stimulate the continuous development of our country's economy, and enable the prime minister to remain invincible!"
Hearing Jia Xu's words, Cao Cao's heart was also moved.
He felt that what Jia Xu said was very reasonable. With the development of Hanzhong, coupled with the attraction of Jiang Chen's policies, those merchants have been gradually attracted by Jiang Chen.
As a result, the economy here in Xuchang is also getting more and more depressed. If this situation continues, Jiang Chen will always be the one who benefits, and they can only drink some soup.
Sometimes, even soup is not available.
In the past, when Hu merchants came to the court to do business, they would choose big cities like Xuchang or Chang'an because there were as many nobles as dogs here.
But now, because of Jiang Chen's good policies, even if there are far more nobles in Xuchang than in Hanzhong, those Hu merchants would rather do business in Hanzhong.
Then let the merchants in Hanzhong ship their goods to Xuchang, causing their prices to soar.
These made Cao Cao very headache, but there was nothing he could do.
There's no way, they didn't pay much attention to merchants before, they felt that the status of merchants was low and dispensable, Jiang Chen took advantage of the loopholes, and now they realized it.
If a country does not have a well-developed business, it is impossible to develop rapidly.
"Oh, is there any way Wen He can attract caravans from various countries?"
Cao Cao also seemed a little excited when he heard Jia Xu's words.
Recently, because the Silk Road is close to Hanzhong where Jiang Chen is located, coupled with the temptation of Jiang Chen's policy, those Hu merchants are not going to Xuchang very much.
Those who will come are all caravans from Hanzhong, and the things from the Western Regions are really controlled by Jiang Chen.
As a result, the nobles here have to pay several times the original price to buy things from the Western Regions, causing the nobles to resent, but there is nothing they can do.
They also knew that it was Jiang Chen's fault, but they couldn't go to Jiang Chen to make a theory.
"Prime Minister, after we let the people complete the exchange!"
"You can take the risk and simply let the currency exchange rate increase from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-]!"
"Those mercenary businessmen are willing to take risks as long as they have [-]% profit!"
"If the currency exchange rate on the Prime Minister's side is so high, wouldn't those Hu businessmen not fall into the Prime Minister's arms?"
"Could it be that they will see that Jiang Chen has earned more than ten times the profit?"
"Businessmen are all selfish. As long as the Prime Minister is ruthless, those businessmen will naturally come in droves!"
"As long as there are businessmen, Xuchang will become the world's economic development center in the future!"
"In this way, doesn't the prime minister have the initiative and pricing power?"
"The prime minister has the final say on the price of the product. Even if the exchange rate is [-]:[-], the prime minister can't let himself suffer. Our price can be set higher!"
"For the Prime Minister, there are hundreds of benefits and no harm!"
Jia Xu stroked his beard with a smile.
