On the same day, Han Wangran summoned the scholar-official Zhao Zhuo and ordered him to carry his credentials and secretly go to Qi as an envoy.

Immediately afterwards, Han Wangran wrote another letter in his own hand and ordered someone to send it to Julu City day and night.

Around the fifteenth day, Han Wangran's letter was finally delivered to Julu, and to the hands of the frontline army commander Le Yi and Julu Shou Yanjue.

At this time, Wei's merchants had already dumped a large amount of cheap goods to Handan North County and Julu County. Although it had not yet affected Yuyang County, Wei's merchants had almost achieved a decisive victory in Handan North County and Julu County.

Advantages.

Seeing that the merchants of their own country were losing ground in the local trade war, even though the Han generals Le Yi and Yan Kuang had tens of thousands of troops, they were helpless.

After all, the other party is just a merchant from Wei. As long as South Korea still hopes that merchants from other countries will come to the country to carry out trade in the future, then they are destined not to be the first to use force against these Wei merchants. This is why those Wei merchants are dumping goods unscrupulously.

one.

Of course, although they were helpless against the dumping methods of those Wei merchants, the two Korean generals Le Yi and Yan Kui did not do anything. At least, they strengthened the previously added passes and created as much trouble for those Wei merchants as possible.

Trouble, delaying their ability to transport goods from the mainland of Wei to this place for dumping.

As for the excuse, it is simple. He just needs to tell a random lie and claim that among these Wei merchants there are spies sent by Wei to spy on his Korean intelligence. Therefore, South Korea needs to be careful to strengthen public security. In fact, among those Wei merchants,

Among the merchants, there are indeed many spies from Wei State, mainly those from Tiance Mansion.

But even so, the method Le Yi and Yan Kui came up with only treated the symptoms but not the root cause. Although it could temporarily alleviate the harm caused by Wei merchants, it could not fundamentally eradicate it.

Because of this, Julu City was inevitably captured by Wei merchants soon after, and the city was gradually filled with a large amount of Wei goods.

What makes Julu Shouyanju feel angry is that in such a dangerous situation, there are still people in the city who are greedy for profit. They have lost their minds under the money offensive of Wei merchants, causing many shops in the city to be resold to Wei.

This greatly boosted the arrogance of Wei merchants and caused the shops in the city opened by local Koreans to close down at a faster rate.

Although the market in Julu City is still lively at this moment, it is just as prosperous as a bubble. Once the merchants of the Wei Kingdom evacuate the city in the future, the market in the city will inevitably decline immediately, seriously affecting Julu City.

The daily operations of the military and civilians.

In this regard, Yan Kui, who served as the guardian of Julu, was more far-sighted than Le Yi. He was originally a county governor with both civil and military skills and knew how to manage people's livelihood.

And just when Yan Kuai was worried about this day and night, Han Wangran's handwritten letter was delivered to the city.

That day, Le Yi and Yan Kui carefully read Han Wangran's letter.

In the letter, Han Wangran had come up with a clever trick to break the dumping tactics of Wei merchants. Le Yi and Yan Kuai were amazed and couldn't help but sigh: Your Majesty is wise!

What clever plan did Han Wangran come up with to break the malicious dumping tactics of Wei merchants?

The answer is to mint more copper coins!

Since Wei's merchants used dumping methods to earn Korean coins in an attempt to destroy South Korea's economic system, South Korea would mint more coins and in turn use this opportunity to replenish the national treasury. Anyway, as far as the current situation is concerned, the money earned by Wei's merchants

It is almost impossible for the Korean coins taken out to return to South Korea through trade. This will cause a large reduction in Korean domestic coins. Therefore, additional coins are minted to supplement the lack of coins on the market.

, has no impact on the country at all.

The wonderful thing is that all the newly minted coins belong to the state. In other words, the Korean court received a huge amount of money for no reason.

As for the harm involved, firstly, it seriously offended the State of Wei and its merchants; secondly, it would inevitably damage South Korea’s original reputation; and thirdly, in the future, the Wei State would use the Korean coins earned through various means.

When it is returned to South Korea, South Korea's copper coins will inevitably depreciate due to excess saturation.

But for now, this is indeed the best way to get the country through the crisis: If we can't even solve the current problem, how can we talk about the future?

Within a few days, Julu City was completely captured by Wei merchants, but these Wei merchants never expected that they would be tricked by Han Wangran: not only did Korea get a large amount of cheap supplies, but the Korean court also

, got a considerable savings of copper coins.

About two months later, the merchants of Wei gradually felt that something was wrong: although they had squeezed out many Korean counterparts through malicious dumping methods, there still seemed to be enough copper coins circulating in the market.

It wasn't until a Wei merchant carefully examined the newly earned coins and found that these copper coins were brand new that he suddenly realized: South Korea is minting more copper coins!

This discovery put Wei merchants into a dilemma.

"mean!"

"It is simply shameless to mint more copper coins!"

The merchants of the Wei State denounced South Korea one after another, which for a time caused South Korea's reputation to plummet. At least in the near future, it is unlikely that merchants from other countries will be willing to carry out trade in South Korea. After all, South Korea's secretive method of minting coins,

The damage to the interests of businessmen in other countries is very serious.

At this time, only the merchants of the Wei State were still holding on. After all, they started this merchant war, which was rare and not for monetary profit.

This news soon reached the ears of Wei Shaobo, a wealthy man.

Wen Shaobo was not ashamed of South Korea's behavior and immediately told his colleagues in his country to throw away the Korean copper coins in their hands immediately and destroy South Korea's economy.

At Wen Shaobo's call, the Wei merchants who had earned large amounts of Korean copper coins immediately began to spend the rapidly depreciating Korean copper coins in their hands. But the terrible thing was that no one was willing to take over their hands at this time.

Korean copper coins? The Korean merchants who once fought desperately for every Korean copper coin have long since disappeared. In fact, at this time, the Korean merchants who were defeated by the Wei merchants had already turned around under the call of the imperial court.

And went to the north to trade with Hu Di in the northern plateau.

"I have been hunting eagles all day long, but today I was blinded by an eagle pecking me out."

When Wen Shaobo met his long-time friend Dingtao Taohong, the former laughed at himself.

In response to this, Tao Hong also smiled bitterly.

These two wealthy people from the Wei State really did not expect that South Korea would use such a taboo and shameless method to crack the dumping strategy of their Wei merchants.

Well, now, they all lost their money, but South Korea, on the other hand, got a batch of cheap supplies for no reason, and also used this matter to fill the national treasury.

When these two wealthy people from Wei State gathered together to discuss countermeasures, other businessmen from Wei State were also clamoring: South Korea must pay the price for this matter!

The so-called paying the price is nothing more than hoping that the Luoyang court will send troops to support them, but unfortunately, they are destined to be disappointed in this matter, because Wei Wang Zhao Run has not yet planned to fight with South Korea with real swords and guns.

A battle.

A month later, Wen Shaobo's confidants sent the news to Luoyang, the capital of Wei State, and presented it to Tiance Mansion, reporting it to Gao Kuo, the left captain, and Zhang Qigong, the right captain.

Compared to Gao Kuo's anger, Zhang Qigong showed an inexplicable smile, as if he had seen some kind of prey, shook his head, muttered "Interesting", "Interesting" and left.

Probably to plan a new round of conspiracy against South Korea.

Half an hour later, Gao Kuo, the left captain of Tiance Mansion, came to the palace in person and told Wei King Zhao Run the news.

After listening to Gao Kuo's story, Zhao Run was quite surprised. Even though he had not expected that Han Wangran actually came up with a clever plan to mint more copper coins, he in turn tricked them.

As for whether Gao Kuo said something despicable or not, Zhao Run didn't care at all.

After all, to be more serious, the merchants of Wei State used dumping methods to South Korea in an attempt to destroy South Korea's economy. Is this fair and aboveboard? It's just mutuality.

He was just a little regretful, or in other words, he couldn't help but laugh at himself: He really underestimated Han Ran!

After thinking calmly, Wei Wang Zhao Run said to Gao Kuo: "Tiance Mansion does not need to intervene in the businessmen's affairs. Let Wen Shaobo, Tao Hong and others solve it. They have been involved in this matter for a long time. Aren't they better at it than you?"

?As for the rest..."

Touching his chin, he suddenly asked: "Did Zhang Qigong know about this? What did he say?"

Gao Kuo answered truthfully: "Master Zhang just muttered a few words 'interesting' with a weird look on his face, and then disappeared."

"Oh?" Zhao Run was stunned when he heard this, then nodded and said with a smile: "Then you don't have to worry too much, just leave this matter to Zhang Qigong."

"yes!"

Gao Kuo bowed and retreated.

Looking at Gao Kuo's leaving back, Han Wangran's face flashed in Zhao Run's mind. After taking a long breath, he murmured: "This plan is indeed clever, but it is no less than drinking poison to quench thirst. Although I, the Great Wei, have been tricked,

Together, you have taken a slight advantage, but what you can damage is the country's credibility... This doesn't seem like something you would do. Or is it that you have been forced to a dead end and have no choice?"

But thinking about it carefully, Zhao Run didn't think there was anything wrong with Han Ran's decision.

Still the same sentence: If you can't survive today's disaster, why bother thinking about the future?

Even if it were Zhao Run, he would probably make the same decision as Han Wangran: get through this disaster first!

At this moment, Zuo Duwei Gao Kuo had returned to Tiance Mansion.

Returning to Tiance Mansion and asking about the whereabouts of the right captain Zhang Qigong, Gao Kuo learned that the latter had left Luoyang with his deputy Nangong Yu a moment ago, and was said to have gone straight to Daliang.

Gao Kuo was quite confused about this, but considering that King Zhao Run of Wei had instructed him to leave the matter to Zhang Qigong, Gao Kuo did not intervene. He just informed the gangsters in the "Youdu Lieutenant Office"

The crows shouted and asked the black crows to inform Zhang Qigong of the authorization from King Zhao Run of Wei.

Not to mention, Zhang Qigong and his deputy Nangong Yu really went straight to Daliang. As for their destination, it was the "Daliang Academy" outside Daliang City. Zhang Qigong needed to use the novelist's "Yitan" to achieve his certain goal.

The purpose was to retaliate against South Korea for using the strategy of "minting more copper coins" to break his "dumping strategy."

Thinking about it, the "dumping strategy" is a poisonous plan proposed by Zhang Qigong, but he didn't expect that at the time of great success, it would be tricked by South Korea. How could the arrogant Zhang Qigong accept it? Of course it would be ten times the price.

, take revenge a hundredfold!

But speaking of the matter, even Zhang Qigong must admit that South Korea's move is quite clever.

"This plan must be offered to King Han by my disciples of Legalism."

During the journey, Zhang Qigong swore to his deputy Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu was very confused after hearing this, because according to his understanding of Legalists, shouldn't Legalists be the ones making laws? How could he offer such a strategy outside the rules?

After hearing Nangong Yu's confusion, Zhang Qigong was very disdainful: "We are not descendants of the Mohist family."

Yes, the children of Legalism are not as rigid as the children of Mohism. It is no exaggeration to say that out of ten children of Legalism, nine are bold. They make rules, but sometimes they do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. It is not to break the rules, but to find the truth.
