Faced with a regional governor who dared to execute even the emperor by a thousand cuts... who in the world would dare to treat him with disrespect?
Jiang Ming completely disregarded moral blackmail and other people's opinions. If you don't agree, I'll deal with you, and I won't let you die a good death. This is the most direct driving force behind his policies!
Throughout the world, except for the Kingdom of Wu, all the countries are gradually replacing their original currencies with a unified gold coin!
Once the currency was unified, the side effects quickly became apparent!
The exchange and communication of goods around the world has become increasingly smooth!
The cattle and sheep of the northern frontier, the salt and iron of Qi, the grain of Chu, the ore of Jin, the silk of Wu, and the weapons of Qin... all converged in Luoyi, the center of the world, making it a major commercial center where merchants from all over the country could buy whatever they wanted!

Jiang Ming replied to the King of Wu: Your country has no gold mines, so having you mint coins is useless. Why not... exchange real goods for gold coins? The effect will be the same! And the Central Plains countries are most interested in Wu's silk and are willing to pay a high price to buy it!
Jiang Ming directly ordered all countries to purchase Wu's silk together, to help Wu smoothly complete the transition of currency exchange!
Furthermore, Jiang Ming promoted a trend: only gentlemen wear silk, drink tea from Wu, and use utensils from Wu. In short, everything from Wu is the best!
As a result, Wu's exports to other countries surged daily, and a large amount of gold coins also poured into Wu!
