Chapter 438 You are going crazy

"How is it? Have you thought about it?" Seeing that Zhang Ran was just looking down and thinking hard, and did not reply for a long time, Zhao Yu finally felt a little impatient when he waited and couldn't help but urge him.

"Well~" Hearing Zhao Yu's inquiry, Zhang Ran slowly raised his head, pondered for a moment, and replied solemnly: "Mr. Zhao, I have already thought about it. I think in the current situation, we should first strive for a technological blockade against the Huns, the great enemy of life and death, and then consider setting a corresponding technical transfer standard for various vassal states around the Han Dynasty, such as the South Yue Kingdom, the Min Yue Kingdom, and the Yelang, the attached Yelang, and many other small countries!

Finally, we seek to establish a comprehensive technical level standard covering all local counties and states in the Han Dynasty, especially those of the centrally controlled counties and states of the royal family and vassal kings. We must set up barriers to distinguish them, and strictly limit the scope of operation within their jurisdiction, and reclaim their rights of coin minting, mineral mining rights, etc., and do not allow local counties and states to privately mint coins, mine copper and iron ore, and build iron tools, and prohibit them from buying and selling grain and selling salt!”

"Xiaolang, you're going crazy!"

When Zhao Yu heard this, he was shocked by Zhang Ran's words. The two points Zhang Ran put forward were fine, but the requirements were not high. In Zhao Yu's opinion, it was reasonable. If you work hard, it would be possible... But the final statement was too outrageous and too horrifying. This was equivalent to offending all the vassal kings in one fell swoop!

It is prohibited to mint coins by local vassal kings, mining copper ore, making iron tools, and prohibiting them from buying and selling grain and selling salt. Isn’t this equivalent to cutting off most of the money sources of the vassal kings at once?

Without these large-scale incomes that make money quickly, what do those vassal kings eat? What do they drink? How can they maintain a luxurious life? If this happens, then all vassal kings in the world will have to save money, and some people may not even be able to maintain their basic livelihoods!

For example, Zhao Yu heard that the King of Zhongshan Liu Sheng was arrogant, extravagant and lustful, and loved beauty. So far, he had more than twenty children. It is said that this number is not the upper limit and is still increasing. In less than ten years, this number will definitely increase... It is very difficult to support such a large family. It costs money everywhere, and it is a huge expense every year or even every month!

If Liu Sheng’s wealth is really cut off, how can Liu Sheng live? How can Liu Sheng’s more than 20 children live? You can’t let them all go to beg for food!

As the saying goes, cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents, which is an irreconcilable grudge. If Zhang Ran really dares to do this, those vassal kings will take revenge on Zhang Ran like crazy!

For a moment, Zhao Yu seemed to see a new bloody storm brewing inside and outside the court. Once it broke out, it would definitely be another big storm that swept the world!

As Zhang Ran’s boss, in the whirlpool of this storm, Zhao Yu suddenly felt like a disaster was about to come, so he quickly stopped Zhang Ran and said, “Xiao Lang, I just persuaded you just now, and the intention was to not be discouraged and lose your ambition! But you didn’t let you act willful and poke a hornet’s nest! Your technical blockade strategy has offended the world’s great merchants and the powerful men in the border counties. Now your situation is already dangerous enough, but you still think it’s not enough and you have to provoke those royal vassal kings. Do you think you didn’t die fast enough?

Have you forgotten the lessons of Lord Father Yan? Are those vassal kings so easy to mess with? Lord Father Yan offered a soft knife to cut the vassal kings several times, and they were attacked by groups, almost dead and destroyed. You put the knife on someone's neck, and you were even more ruthless than Lord Father Yan... Could it be that you think you are better than Lord Father Yan?"

"Haha..." Zhang Ran couldn't help but smile and shook his head and said, "Mr. Zhao, have you forgotten that Master Yan was redeemed by me for money? How could I forget his experience? However, I am still a little different from Master. He is too vengeful and greedy for money. He suffered such a consequences after committing the emperor's taboo... And with Master Yan's previous lessons, I will naturally not make such low-level mistakes again!"

After a pause, Zhang Ran said again: "What's more, I've just made an opinion at the moment. I don't really want to accomplish it overnight and get things done... This matter has such great resistance, and I'm not a fool, how can I not even understand such a simple truth?"

"Give me some advice!" Zhao Yu couldn't help but glared at Zhang Ran angrily and persuaded him with great painstaking advice: "The Lord's Father Yan also made an opinion on the 'recommendation order'. Didn't you see what happened later? Xiaolang, once you get involved in some things, you can't control me!

Therefore, I advise you to put away those thoughts you shouldn't have and not provoke those vassal kings. These people are too powerful and have a strong desire to revenge, which is far from something you and I can provoke!"

"Uh, Mr. Zhao, I admit that what you said makes sense, but you may be a little too late!" Zhang Ran couldn't help but touch his nose awkwardly, lowered his head and whispered: "Mr. Zhao, have you forgotten that I have already messed with them... Master Yan was saved by me!

Do you think if the news of my help to save Master Yan will spread, will the remnants of the King of Qi, the King of Yan and King Zhao let me go?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Ran paused slightly and sneered, "Since this beam has been formed long ago, it is basically impossible to resolve it! So many things like this and fewer things, what's the point? Could it be that if I don't take the initiative to provoke them, will they shake hands with me?

What's more, the suggestion I made was completely considered from the perspective of our great man. It is very beneficial to the country and the people. How could I be afraid of the head and the head and the people just because it might harm some of the interests of the vassal kings?”

"Uh~" Zhao Yu felt a little speechless when he heard this. As the other party said, since he had offended him, it would be better to offend him a little more... Anyway, those who are rebellious with the vassal kings are unlikely to spare Zhang Ran!
