Chapter 1298 Kill the Chicken and Take the Egg!Do whatever it takes!
In Sun Quan's palace.
This time, for Sun Quan, he was faced with a very big choice.
For this reason, he had to call Lu Su and Zhang Zhao.
As the two top counselors of his civil servants, Sun Quan is still very dependent on the two of them.
Since the Spring Festival Gala did not go well,
Sun Quan and the others also learned their lesson and did it again.
After using Jiang Chen's program list, not only did they eliminate the barriers between them and the nobles,
It also allowed them to make an extra fortune, this time even more than the last time.
Sun Quan was so happy that he almost woke up from his dream.
Not only Sun Quan, but also Liu Bei and Cao Cao did the same.
Of course, Cao Cao made the most money, because he has the strongest control over the entire Xuchang.
And all the blame can be borne by the young emperor, he is just the prime minister.
"Zijing, Zibu, you came at a good time."
"Come and help me find out what kind of heart this Cao Cao has!"
Sun Quan saw Lu Su and Zhang Zhao enter his imperial study,
He immediately stood up excitedly,
Then let the two people sit down, and asked the eunuch to hand over the order from Cao Cao to the two people.
The imperial decree was issued by the little emperor controlled by Cao Cao, of course, it was granted by Cao Cao.
Otherwise, such an order would be impossible to issue.
After Sun Quan received this order, he immediately felt that this might be a conspiracy by Cao Cao.
His purpose may be to stir up the hatred between them and Jiang Chen
Otherwise, why would such an edict be issued.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Lu Su and Zhang Zhao dare not neglect,
Immediately read the imperial decree from Xuchang one after another.
"How, what do you two think?"
Sun Quan asked expectantly.
According to his thinking, he would never obey such an order.
Anyway, everyone knows it well, there is no need to kneel and lick Cao Cao again.
Even if you kneel, Cao Cao will not give up and annex you.
"Back to the king, the old minister thought that this decree can be fulfilled!"
However, to everyone's surprise, Lu Su agreed to follow the order.
This made Sun Quan extremely puzzled.
Why do you still have to give it? This is obviously a generation with ulterior motives.
They don't need to listen to him at all.
Isn't this doing harm to the local people?
"According to the old minister's thinking, Cao Cao's move is not aimed at the king!"
"It's a method deliberately thought of against Jiang Chen who wants to increase the tax on the leased land!"
"The purpose of his decree is nothing more than to let us unite together, restrain Jiang Chen, and not let him develop too fast!"
"Otherwise, this will make Jiang Chen even more powerful!"
Lu Su analyzed.
He already understood Cao Cao's intentions,
On the bright side, it may force the common people to complain,
But in fact, he just wanted to deduct money from Jiang Chen.
Because the income from the leased land really made them feel jealous.
If he doesn't think of a way, it will definitely make Jiang Chen develop too fast.
"Then if you do this, won't it make the king and the people feel dissatisfied?"
"It's a strategy that hurts both sides!"
Sun Quan asked with some puzzlement.
He was a little puzzled. When Lu Su made decisions, he always pursued perfection.
There will never be any mistakes, which is why he trusts Lu Su so much.
How could you be so impulsive today?
"Back to the king!"
"It seems so, but it is not!"
"Taxes are raised on the surface, but we can balance these differences with some subsidies!"
"For example, local merchants are exempt from poll tax, duty-free, etc.!"
"The purpose is to protect local merchants from being bullied by foreign merchants!"
"In this way, not only will the merchants not be dissatisfied, but they will also be supported by those merchants!"
Lu Su quickly replied.
After hearing Lu Su's explanation, Sun Quan really understood.
This is indeed a clever strategy.
The purpose is to take money from Jiang Chen's hands, so that he could get more money,
Then share some money equally from his hands to develop himself.
Why didn't they think of such a way.
If he could have thought of this earlier, Jiang Chen wouldn't have taken advantage of so much.
There is no way, there is really no experience in dealing with it.
Where have they experienced the era of reform and economic explosion?
Naturally, it is not clear what consequences these might have.
By the time they realized it, they had already made a lot of money.
And the method Cao Cao thought of was undoubtedly to stick Jiangchen's neck.
It made him uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, this is an adjustment for the whole country, not just for him.
In this way, he has nothing to say.
Moreover, the relationship between them and Jiang Chen was already hostile.
This fact cannot be changed in any way.
If we can take the opportunity to transfer some of Jiang Chen's money to their hands and develop more firearms,
In the battle after the spring blossoms, their chances of winning will be higher.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"We and that Jiang Chen have sworn to be the same!"
"The old minister has also greatly affected Master Lu's opinion!"
"Being able to unite to restrict Jiang Chen's development is undoubtedly the best way at the moment!"
"If Hanzhong's economy takes off too fast, it will be extremely detrimental to us!"
Zhang Zhao next to him also stood up.
He and Lu Su actually had the same idea.
Jiangdong now is not the same as it used to be.
Now, those merchants in Jiangdong are extremely difficult to do business.
And Jiang Chen is still playing price war with them,
Those merchants had no knowledge, and they couldn't play Jiang Chen at all.
As a result, those merchants can earn too little money every year.
It simply cannot be compared with Jiang Chen,
It seems that every year, Jiang Chen will take away most of the money from various leased places.
All of these are used to develop Hanzhong's economy and infrastructure.
He is using the money earned by the entire Central Plains people to develop himself alone.
Now, everyone can see through it completely.
It's only now that I realize it, although it's too late.
But it is necessary to restrain Jiang Chen's development, absolutely not let him make money away foolishly.
Whatever you say, you have to stop the money,
It is safest to get it in your own hands.
"If that's the case, then I'll leave this matter to the two love ministers!"
"We must do this well!"
"Don't let those merchants and common people make trouble, otherwise, you will know the result!"
Sun Quan thought for a while,
There is no other way, although this one may offend Jiang Chen.
But now that the battle is imminent, there is no need to be so polite to him anymore.
Now is not the time to be courteous, otherwise the whole country will lose.
