"He ascended to the throne as a young man, and has gone through many trials and hardships to this day. His talent can't be considered great, but he is still a decisive monarch." Jun Tianxia sat opposite to her and gave her an indifferent evaluation.

"Interesting." Hua Ruge scratched his chin, looking like he was thinking about something.

"Since your plan succeeded, leave it to me." Jun Tianxia said to her.

Right now, the Great Zhou Empire was like a piece of loose sand. As long as they were willing to fight, they could still take them down.

However, Hua Ruge shook his head and said: "Even though the people have dispersed, the strength of the Great Zhou Army is still there. If you attack them now, they will only bite harder.

"You have a way?" Jun Tianxia raised her eyebrows, her previous plan was finished. According to her expectations, those people who did not eat their fill would definitely rebel, and the reality was that they were fast, she did not expect the Emperor of Zhou to suppress them.

"Trying to save the country with a little money sounds unrealistic." Hua Ruge rubbed his chin and said: "Let's not talk about anything else, just the money we've fished out from them in the past two months is enough to kill them all."

Seeing her confident look, Jun Tianxia felt reassured in his heart, and said: "How can I cooperate with you?"

"Attack." Hua Ruge explained after finishing her sentence: "According to what you said before, split into three armies and press down on the borders of the Zhou Empire. As long as you pressure them, there's no need to rush to attack."

"Alright."

Hua Ruge took out a pen and paper and started to give the hidden secret guards in the Zhou Empire the next mission.

After the decree of the Great Zhou Emperor was passed down, the national treasury was opened and all the spirit stones that could be used were distributed to the local officials. The local officials then observed and selected the most influential merchants and workshops.

Once the factories and shops were opened, the commoners could earn a living as before. The chaos was finally resolved.

However, the Great Zhou Kingdom's treasury did not have enough Spirit Stones to help the people. Thus, they could only comfort those who could not obtain it, and only when their strength improved did they give them enough Spirit Stones to stabilize the situation.

But even so, there were all sorts of loopholes that were hard to solve. The comprehensive problem was poverty.

In order to solve this problem, Zhou sent out a large number of troops to mine the metal ore, intending to rely on this resource to recover economic losses. If they continued to develop like this, there was a 40 to 50% chance that they would be able to save the situation.

However, at this time, the price of cold iron started to rise again on the rotten streets. The price of cold iron on the market was slowly decreasing.

This time, the first choice for merchants was not to speculate but to report. After such a long period of economic turmoil, even a fool would know that this change in prices was not a good one.

Nearly everyone was calm about it, and poverty had made them completely rational.

Therefore, the government began investigating the people who bought the Frost Iron. In the end, after seven days, the price of the Frost Iron continued to rise and had returned to its previous market value.

The Great Zhou Emperor was furious about this, but the officials below were also innocent. It was not that they did not put their heart into it, but they really did not find a large number of buyers on the market.

The Great Zhou Emperor immediately ordered for the sale of more than five Jin of cold iron to those who were not part of the training camp. He also ordered for the government to strictly inspect and control the price.

After suffering once, he knew what the problem was.

Da Yu.

Lan Bing'er read the letter that the hidden guards had sent over to Hua Ruge. Hua Ruge sat on the chair and drank his tea as he listened.

"In that case, do we have no way of raising prices through acquisitions?" Lan Bing'er put down the letter and asked.

Hua Ruge nodded.

Previously, she could have used the various channels and shops that she had set up to achieve her goal of purchasing and selling them, but the moment this decree was given, all these routes were blocked.

"Then what should we do?" Lan Bing'er asked.

Hua Ruge laughed and said, "I didn't say that my purpose this time is the same as before."

Lan Bing'er couldn't figure it out for a while.0

"A month ago, when I asked them to start tasting the sweet taste of speculative money, you asked me why I had half the cold iron in my hands, right?" Hua Ruge asked.

Lan Bing'er nodded.

"Part of the reason is because I want those people to sink deeper and deeper into the abyss. Also, I want to leave some means for myself. As long as I can't destroy the Zhou Dynasty, I can use these cold iron." Hua Ruge explained.

Lan Bing'er suddenly thought of something. Hua Ruge had previously made people of the Zhou Empire earn twice, but now, a large amount of Frigid Metal was accumulating in her hands. The third market automatically crumbled, and the Coldsteel in her hands was not even left behind.

Calculating the amount of Frigid Metal he had, coupled with the seven days of purchase this time, Hua Ruge could not even imagine how much it was.

Hua Ruge stretched out three of his fingers and said: "The Coldsteel in my hands is the same as what they have produced in the past three years."

"So many?" Lan Bing'er was shocked.

Hua Ruge acknowledged tacitly.

"Sister, did you hoard so much Frost Iron for weapons training?" Lan Bing'er asked again.

"Of course not." Hua Ruge leaned on the chair and said: "I can only do that much, it's all up to the Monarch now."

The shops and workshops had already started working, and the citizens could also work for a living. Many merchants felt that the domestic business was not easy to do, and also began to focus their attention on the Immortal City s of the nearby sects, selling their own country's goods to the Immortal City s.

The best one was Weapons Pavilion. Because the Great Zhou Empire relied on the northern border, which had abundant metal ore, and annual weapons forging had also caused their artificers to be proficient, their weapons were very popular outside.

Seeing that the world's situation was progressing in a favorable direction, the Great Zhou Emperor finally heaved a sigh of relief. However, before three days had passed, urgent news was sent from the officials below.

That was, after the last few days of consumption, there was actually no cold iron left on the market. This was one of the most indispensable raw materials for refining, and there was no such thing as impossible.

The Great Zhou Emperor was shocked. Wasn't the street that had crumbled a while ago falling in price? Why was it no longer here?

"Your Majesty, because of the increase in the price of the Frost Iron from before, everyone took out the Frost Iron from their warehouses to make speculations. Later on, it was spread in the market before the prices were greatly reduced." The Minister spoke of the results of the investigation.

"Even if I brought out all the Frost Iron in the warehouse, it should still be on the market now. Why is it suddenly gone?" The Great Zhou Emperor asked with a dark expression.

"This... This official does not know either. " The Minister was also troubled. Previously, when he saw the commoners making money and collecting large amounts of tax into their pockets, he did not pay any attention to what was happening in the market.
