In this way, things can’t be collected in the palace. After all, people’s homes are really out of bronzes.
Nobles have something to levy, but they can’t adjust their heads.
They must have bought bronzes, but their rare goods can be hoarded and refused to circulate to the market.
A temporary shock in the ruling and opposition
It’s frightening to see the arsenal of weapons go from ten to nine, but what’s even more frightening is the shortage of raw copper and aristocratic confrontation.
The civil and military officials felt that something was wrong, which was a demonstration of their ability by the nobles who sang songs.
Zhou Wang is not afraid of them? Don’t you let them do business? Didn’t it raise the price of charcoal?
Then they will raise the price of copper by leaps and bounds!
So the courtiers didn’t shout, beat and kill the nobles.
Inertia has always told them that nobles enjoy this benefit.
In fact, there are many courtiers who don’t want to see Zhou Wang shoot at the nobles
The princes have shown their disloyalty. If they persecute the nobles more, they will really be alone. It is difficult for the court to rely on loyal officials to maintain it.
But I’m not worried about it
Running out of copper is a problem, but it’s not a big problem.
Didn’t all the people put their money in the bank?
Just ask Zhao Gongyao directly.
No? At most, I owe you an iou.
When the people can’t get the money when they get it, they scold it, so it’s just a gift of fatuous value!
Anyway, the money is for the people to get back now without any psychological burden.
……
In the money house, Zhao Gong, Yao Shaosi, Chen Jiugong, Xiao Sheng and Cao Baozheng sit together and sit as if they were sitting there, and they can see a burst of jewels.
Xiao Sheng worried that "copper has reached a valuable market in this life, but the nobles hoarded copper but refused to sell it, and there was no way for the palace to borrow money from the bank …"
Cao Baonai "although the money is just for buying charcoal and giving it to the people, it will disappear when the people find that the money is acceptable."
Zhao Gong repeatedly shook his head. "What can I do? Just in troubled times, the military also used stones to fight hard! "
Duke Zhao knows how to fight a great robbery, but in the end, fighting depends on mortals. If all the soldiers of the Shang army are armed with stone knives and wooden spears, don’t fight and surrender.
Yao Shaosi was silent.
Chen Jiugong had a brainwave. "The reason why people who melted bronzes and cast money criticized and corrected them was just that they were disrespectful to the former king. However, these things were all treated with care, and the main reason was that the value of a bronze was much higher than the copper needed for casting bronzes."
"Just as the high copper price doesn’t mean that the bronze ware is melted and the money is not so wave?"
There is some truth in this thought, but isn’t this a fool’s consolation?
The price of copper is not rising blindly, but it is deliberately hoarded by the nobles, but the price is artificially high. Except that the court must use copper to cast a weapon, whoever takes the price of copper seriously is stupid.
"Nine male continue to say"
Zhao Gong is very interested in his two brothers. Although their mana skills are not very good, they like to hack, especially in business. There must be some truth.
Chen Jiugong immediately said, "Brother, a large number of caravans have traveled so soon that the price of copper will soon drop, and everything will be broken."
Xiao Sheng frowned. "What?"
Cao Bao also said, "But those caravans are all noble caravans, and even if they buy copper mines, they will inevitably continue to hoard them."
Yao Shaosi shine at the moment "no! Someone must sell it! "
Everyone is puzzled when they hear it.
Yao Shaosi explained, "Before the nobles formed a caravan, they saw the high price of charcoal and looked around for sources of goods, and even bought a substitute for stone charcoal."
"The price of Shiraz charcoal has not fallen because someone in the palace has been buying charcoal at a constant price, but copper is not."
"When you reach into the bank, you won’t buy in the market again, and the caravan will look around for supplies like charcoal when it looks at the high copper price. Finally, a steady stream of raw copper will be transported into Chaoge, which will break the situation that the raw copper has a valuable market, and then the copper price will return to its place. I think that when the caravan returns to Chaoge, the copper price will experience a plunge, even if some nobles still stock up, but the price will not be too high."
Cao Bao asked again, "Can copper ever be produced? Charcoal everyone can burn wood, but copper can be cut everywhere, but it’s not so easy to find. "
Chen Jiugong suddenly said "North"
After the recruitment in the palace, some people bought all kinds of bronze utensils at a high price. The people have rummaged around their homes and sold all the bronze utensils.
