Lin Yi, a master of economics, once traveled through time and became a death row prisoner in the late Northern Song Dynasty. There were only three days left before Wenzhan, and his only bargaining chip was a piece of paper filled with numbers.
He used modern financial knowledge to pry open the door of the household department, used a piece of paper as money, and issued "credit coupons" in small and barren counties. If the people didn't believe it, he would let paper be exchanged for salt and grain; if the powerful suppressed them, he would use the laws of the market to counterattack.
When the Jin soldiers marched south and the treasury was empty, he stood up in court with a piece of paper: "Give me credit, and I can stabilize the military pay of the Song Dynasty."
This is not a war of swords, guns, and halberds, but an economist using abacus and credibility to fight against the greed of a dynasty and the collapse of an era.
