Chapter 288: Forge the Straight Hundred, Establish Official Markets, Stabilize Prices . [287]



Summary

. In this chapter, Liu Mang engages in a discussion about the economic situation, specifically the issuance of Zhi Bai Qian, a form of currency intended to stabilize prices and support the market. Xu Jing dismisses Liu Mang's ambitions, comparing him to the notorious Dong Zhuo, who failed to gain public support even with his power. Liu Mang, however, argues that the economic foundation influences the superstructure, emphasizing the need for a stable currency to facilitate trade in the region. Despite Xu Jing's skepticism, others, including Fa Zheng and Liu Ba, support Liu Mang's vision, acknowledging the potential of the direct hundred cash to become a universal currency that could enhance their political power. This strategy aims to counter inflation and promote economic stability, positioning Liu Mang as a key figure in reshaping the financial landscape of the Great Han. .
