According to Hwarang's thinking, if the people want to make full use of the land, they must have enough time to peel the grain and cultivate the land.

These are extremely time-consuming, and must be done as soon as possible, because if the peeling is late, the food may be damp and cannot be preserved until winter. Hungry.

Peeling is not an easy task, especially in an era when agriculture was relatively backward like the Song Dynasty, but since Hwarang wanted to help these people, he felt that he had to make something useful. For this reason, he based on his previous life Based on his experience, he made some tools that can peel the grain as soon as possible. These tools are very simple, some are crushed, and some are blown by the wind. He asked the people in Chang'an City to promote these things as much as possible, and asked these people to plant soybeans and peanuts in their own land after they were done with work, so as to increase their income.

Hwarang knew very well that after these people did this, it would definitely harm the interests of those big families, because in the past, these things were grown by those big families, and they didn't need to peel the grain by themselves, they could use money to hire People, and after the soybeans and peanuts mature, those idle people can be hired to help, but if these people also grow soybeans and peanuts, how can they still have time to work for those big families?

Of course, it is not impossible. After the common people are busy with their own fields, they can still help those big households. It’s just that, after the crops are harvested, the amount of soybeans and peanuts will suddenly increase, which will inevitably lead to a decline in the price of soybeans and peanuts. , and the price drop is equivalent to taking away the silver from those big families.

Although things are not easy to do, since Hwarang and the others have already done it, they naturally have no arrows to turn back, but things are by no means as simple as Hwarang and others thought, because those people began to harvest soybeans and rice in the fields. During the time of peanuts, the price of grain in the entire Chang'an City suddenly increased sharply. In addition, several rice and grain stores no longer opened for business.

The reason for the matter is very simple, that is, some people started to buy a large amount of grain, and hoarded the goods. The reason why they did this was naturally to wait until the surplus grain in the hands of the common people was almost eaten, so they would drive up the price, like Food is such a necessity that no one can do without it. At that time, even if the price of food has doubled, there will still be people who will buy it.

When Hwarang realized this problem, he felt that the matter was not simple, and he even felt the pressure on himself.

Of course, this matter has nothing to do with Hwarang, but now because of Hwarang's different status, he can't just solve a few cases, if possible, he wants to do more for the people of the world.

But when it comes to hoarding goods, Hwarang has nothing to do. First of all, hoarding goods is not illegal, and in such a dynasty, hoarding goods is the fastest way for them to make money.

If these people cannot be restrained by law, what should be done?

With the identities of Li Jingan and Hwarang, how about asking those merchants?This may not be possible. Those businessmen are all out for profit. If they are asked to give up the benefits they are about to get, it will make them more uncomfortable than killing them.

So after thinking about it, the only thing they can do is to regulate the price of grain through the market. The reason why the price changes is because of the relationship between supply and demand. As for throwing food into their own hands, they still have to lower the price to make up for the loss.

And if the supply and demand are controlled, it is very simple. Either let the people not eat food and eat other food, or the food in Chang'an City is sufficient, and the people do not need to buy those high-priced food. However, these two possibilities are not realistic. First, if the people do not If they eat food, the calories in their bodies will not be replenished, so they must be hungry every day.And meet the food needs of the people in Chang'an City?This does not seem to be a difficult task, but where does so much food come from?

The farmers outside the city have grain in their hands, but the grain is only enough for themselves. They will definitely not sell it into the city at a low price. The country has a lot of grain in stock, but the grain is of great use to the court. It may not be easy to allocate some to Chang'an City. After all, food is a commodity in circulation. When the country's food comes, how will it be distributed?

Is it given to the common people for free, or is it sold?

Giving it away for free will easily cause confusion. If it is sold, it can relieve the people's demand for food in Chang'an City, but it will easily lose the hearts of the people. The food is the tax food paid by the people, but now the country takes the tax they pay To buy food, what is this?

Now Hwarang and Li Jingan have a way, but it is even more difficult to implement this way, but they don't need to be in a hurry, because now the people outside the city have just had a bumper harvest, although some people have started hoarding a lot of food, but In a month or two, the price of food in Chang'an City will not change much. Hwarang and Li Jing'an's worries are just for the sake of knowing.

One or two months is enough for them to come up with a solution.

And just when they were trying to find a solution, a major event suddenly happened in Chang'an City. The weather in Chang'an City was smooth in the first half of the year, but after the wheat was harvested, it was suddenly dry for half a month, and half a month later, Chang'an The city still has no intention of raining.

Because of the persistence of Li Jingan, Hwarang and others, soybeans, peanuts and other crops have already been planted in the fields. If it does not rain again, the things that the people planted in the fields may not be harvested.

What are people most afraid of when farming?What they are most afraid of is drought and waterlogging, because both of these situations may cause their crops to fail, and if they fail, they may starve.

This matter is a big issue for the people outside Chang'an City. If it is not resolved, the people's emotions will be agitated, and it is inevitable that something will happen.

For this matter, Li Jing'an organized several activities to pray for rain, but such prayers for rain and sacrifices were useless at all, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, but there was no rain.

Seeing this, Hwarang felt that this is not acceptable, if God cannot be relied on, then they can only rely on themselves.

In this world, people have to rely on themselves most of the time. Relying on God and others will only make people fall into passivity.

Hwarang is not someone who likes to be passive.
