Chapter 494 Siege of the Zhao Family! (Please subscribe!)
Although the prince's answer and behavior hurt the heart of Kang Wang, a former ally, or a pawn, but after thinking about it for a while, Kang Wang was relieved!
That's fine, the rest don't have to worry about other people's faces anymore, just act according to your own plan!

As long as Wang Chengen is taught a lesson, the rest can be as noisy as they like!

He didn't bother to care anymore!
So he asked again: "Then, did your majesty have any opinion on the matter of the refugees in the south?"

"Returning to my father, your majesty's spirit has not been very good recently, so some time ago, although there were many memorials in the south, your majesty didn't have any good ideas. In the early court, your majesty also asked the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty how to deal with this matter , but none of them dared to recommend themselves, so it’s all over now, and I won’t ask about this matter anymore!”

This was something Tang Qingyan knew for himself, and under Kang Wang's questioning, he didn't even try to hide it, so he told it all.

When King Kang heard this, his eyes were full of joy.

Although the crown prince has already let go of this matter, but Emperor Tang doesn't want to intervene, so he can let go to do it!

At the same time, I can't help but sigh, the man who had to personally intervene in every detail, turned out to have a tiring day!

He opened his mouth and asked again: "Qingyan, are you still the same as before, have you had a close relationship with His Highness?"

Hearing this, Tang Qingyan also knew that this was the reason Kang Wang valued him, so he said proudly, "Exactly!"

Kang Wang also nodded in satisfaction, and continued to ask: "How is your Highness doing recently? Based on your experience in Jingzhou, this court matter—"

Tang Qingyan naturally knew what King Kang was asking. Before he finished asking, he immediately said, "Since King Xiang was murdered, there is only one adult prince left in the palace, and His Majesty has paid more attention to His Highness than before! According to the current situation, It is only a matter of time before His Highness enthrones!"

Hearing this, King Kang was even more delighted, and said to Tang Qingyan: "Qingyan, your elder brother's marriage has not been concluded, so your trip is a waste of time! Pack your luggage and go back to Jingzhou! The passage before His Highness enthroned Time, you have to stay by its side as before, so that after His Highness becomes emperor, your status will be even higher!"

"My son, I would like to obey my father's teachings!"

Tang Qingyan lowered his head, but the corner of his mouth was full of sneer!

After so many years of ignoring himself, he suddenly changed his attitude because of this!

I just came back for less than half a day!Without even saying a word of concern, I just wanted to let myself go back quickly!

Hehe, even if labor and management are on the rise in the future, what does it have to do with you?
"Father, it's not good! Father!"

While Tang Qingyan was thinking bitterly, Tang Qingyu's anxious voice came from outside, from far to near, when he walked outside the study, he pushed open the door and walked in without even knocking!

But Kang Wang didn't see anything at the time, and didn't reprimand him!

Seeing this scene, Tang Qingyan sneered in his heart: Hehe, this is the gap!

Tang Qingyu came in, looked at Tang Qingyan, who was standing opposite Kang Wang, with a normal face, and was still very curious. Kang Wang usually hated his so-called younger brother the most. He just beat him up last time when he went to Jingzhou. How could he be called in alone today? What about the study?

And it doesn't look like a reprimand...

"Qingyu, what's going on?"

Kang Wang's words interrupted Tang Qingyu's thoughts, he turned his eyes away from Tang Qingyan, and said, "Father, the price of food has dropped!"

Tang Qingyu looked at King Kang and told the explosive news in the study!

Sure enough, when he heard the news of the food price drop, Kang Wang was stunned for a moment, and his first sentence was: "Impossible!"

Thinking of the fact that he had just returned from the Zhao family's grain farm, Zhao Baiyu's attitude was naturally as if he wanted Wang Chengen to step down. He didn't talk about lowering the price of grain, so who would dare to lower the price of other grain farms in Jinling City?

He said again: "Could it be that there are some small grain farmers who want to take advantage of the opportunity to make some money and lower the price secretly?"

"Father, it's not Xiaoliangzhuang, it's Zhaojialiangzhuang! Just now, the servants came back to report that the storefronts of Zhaojialiangzhuang in the city have started to cut prices, and the streets are almost full of people going to buy grain!"

"........."

Kang Wang frowned tightly. He never thought that such a thing would happen. How could Zhao Baiyu, who had patted his chest to promise him just now, turned around and stabbed himself?
What's the secret behind this?

Asked again: "How much has it dropped?"

"Fifty Wen!"

Seeing that King Kang didn't look particularly shocked, Tang Qingyu noticed his language problem, and immediately changed his words: "It's not that the price was reduced by fifty yuan, but that a catty of grain is only sold for fifty yuan!"

"What? Fifty cents a catty? Is he crazy?"

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Kang Wang was startled and asked three times in a row. He could no longer say that he was surprised, but was surprised and puzzled!

Zhao Baiyu's price reduction method is simply desperate!

Selling grain at such a low price, not to mention that he himself is losing money in business, what do other colleagues think?
If you sell grain at such a low price, your colleagues will still survive!
Kang Wang really didn't understand Zhao Baiyu's operation, let alone understand why he would backtrack?
Could it be that it was just to fight against yourself?

Thinking that a few days ago, Zhao Baiyu rejected Kang Wang's proposal to solve the homeless tide. At that time, Kang Wang was very angry. I didn't expect that this happened again. It is no wonder that Kang Wang is in a good mood!

"Father, what is going on!"

Compared with Tang Qingyan's calm face, the anxiety on Tang Qingyu's face is obvious. It's no wonder that because Wang Chengen unilaterally canceled the marriage in the morning, Tang Qingyu was more angry than Kang Wang, and he had the same idea as Kang Wang. Wang Chengen stepped down, so Wang Yunshi can let him handle it?
But if food prices drop and the refugees disappear, Wang Chengen will not be able to step down!Then wouldn't it be even more impossible for him and Wang Yunshi?
King Kang's eyes narrowed, thinking about Zhao Baiyu's disrespect towards him recently, he was furious, but he is just a prince with a false name, without any real power, even if he is angry, he can't do anything to Zhao Baiyu!

Suddenly, he glanced at Tang Qingyan who was at the side again, his face beamed with joy, and he had a plan!
So he said: "Qingyan, there is nothing wrong with Jinling, you pack your things and go back to Jingzhou as soon as possible! You will have to serve His Highness by then!"

Tang Qingyan didn't have any expression on his face. He lowered his head and said, "Yes, Father! My son will follow the instructions!"

He raised his head, without joy or worry, and said: "Father, if nothing is wrong, the minister there will pack up and go back to Jinling now!"

Kang Wang nodded, Tang Qingyan didn't stay any longer, turned around and left, and walked out of the study...

Returning to Jinling in the morning and leaving Jinling non-stop in the afternoon, Tang Qingyan was a bit busy...

From the beginning to the end, King Kang never said a single word to persuade him to stay, and Tang Qingyan probably didn't expect much anymore...

Seeing Tang Qingyan leave, Tang Qingyu's face became more joyful. This is what he wanted to see the most. Kang Wang's attitude towards Tang Qingyan today always made him feel a little uncomfortable, but now it seems that Kang Wang still treats Tang Qingyan so badly See, it's much better this way.

"Father, what should we do about this matter? Shouldn't we go to the Zhao family to ask again?"

Kang Wang waved his hand and said, "No need, it's not our turn to be anxious about this kind of thing! At this time, I'm afraid someone is more anxious than us!"

…………

At this time, many people in the city were rushing towards Zhao's house.

"Master, wait for the boss to see you!"

"Master, Boss Li, please see me!"

"Master, Boss Sun, please see me!"

The servants outside the door came in one by one to report, Zhao Baiyu hurriedly said: "Please come soon!"

Zhao Baiyu had anticipated this situation a long time ago, so he had already stood up and asked his servants to make tea quickly, while he himself went out and stood outside the door to welcome the guests.

Compared with Zhao Baiyu, the bosses of various grain farms outside the door are not as good as Zhao Baiyu, but Zhao Baiyu can bow down to greet him, which shows how low Zhao Baiyu's attitude is this time.

After going out, he said with a smile: "Everyone come together, Zhao's mansion is indeed full of splendor!"

But none of the bosses outside the door appreciated it, they all snorted coldly, and Zhao Baiyu didn't feel embarrassed, he still smiled and invited everyone to sit in the front hall!
When everyone entered the front hall of Zhao's house, one of the slightly fat middle-aged men couldn't help but speak first: "Boss Zhao, everyone listened to you before. When the grain was collected, the price was raised, and later when the grain was sold, the price was also raised." I listened to you to raise the price of food so high! But now you have lowered the price of food without permission, what do you want us to do?"

The fat man's words spoke out the aspirations of everyone present, and they all echoed together, which shows how dissatisfied they are with the unilateral price reduction of Zhaojia Liangzhuang this time!
You know, if Zhao Baiyu hadn't urged them, they would still receive the grain at the original price instead of raising it to 100 taels!

Even if floods broke out later, they still had food in their granaries, and it would not be a problem to sell them at the original price. It was also because of Zhao Baiyu's instigation that they raised the price together!

Just because of such a high food price increase, they bear a lot of stigma from the common people, but there is no turning back, and they have nothing to do. Although they are reluctant, they can only resist!
Because at this juncture, whoever bows his head first will lose!

However, just when they were still insisting, Zhao Baiyu lowered the price, and even lowered it to such an unbelievable price of [-] Wen a catty!

The Zhao family's grain farm itself is strong, even if they are in a loss-making business, they will only hurt some skin, and will not hurt their bones, but their small grain farms are different!
The grain in the granary is their lifeblood, and they spent a lot of energy raising the price to collect grain before. If Zhao Baiyu hadn't patted his chest and promised that he would definitely make a lot of money in the future, they would not have done that!

But now that they haven't made any money, the Zhao family still wants to kill them, isn't it?
That's why they are so angry now!
Zhao Baiyu had a smile on his face, and he didn't appear dissatisfied with the fat man's accusation. Instead, he smiled apologetically and said, "Boss Hou, please be safe and don't be impatient, don't get angry!"

"Boss Zhao, aren't you trying to force us to death by doing this? Our family is not as rich as yours. This time we collected grain at a high price, but we used all of our family's wealth. If we sell grain at your current low price, we will Lost blood is lost!"

The fat man known as Boss Hou not only did not calm down, but became even more angry. The first time he learned of the Zhao family's price reduction, he even wondered whether all this was planned by Zhao Baiyu himself. Zhuang Quan is dragged down, and the entire grain business in Jinling will be decided by the Zhao family in the future!

Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still anymore, so he called the other Liangzhuang bosses and came to Zhao's mansion together.

When the others heard this, they were even more angry, chattering and pointing their fingers at Zhao Baiyu.

Ever since this group of people entered the house, Zhao Baiyu's attitude couldn't have been better. The group of angry bosses were a little confused. What's going on?
"Everyone calm down, sit down and have a sip of tea, and listen to Zhao talking for you!"

After hearing Zhao Baiyu's words, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but sat down anyway.

Seeing this, Zhao Baiyu spoke up, with a helpless face, and told about Zhao Qingfeng being kidnapped and someone using this to threaten him to reduce the price.

Hearing this, everyone's brows also frowned. After hearing about the Zhao family's price reduction, they felt that this matter should not be simple, but they never thought it would be such a thing!
Before they came, they had thousands of words to complain and question Zhao Baiyu, but after hearing the truth, it seemed that there was no need to complain anymore. Imagine that Zhao Baiyu only had one son, Zhao Qingfeng, and now that his only son was kidnapped, Zhao Baiyu would do anything. Not too much, right?

However, those owners of the small grain farms who lived on grain could not sit still, and asked unwillingly: "Boss Zhao, wouldn't it be better to report this kind of thing to the government? If they don't report it to the government after two days What should Mr. Zhao do? Or even if Mr. Zhao really comes back in two days, do you really plan to keep the price of grain down like this?"

This person asked what everyone was thinking, so when the words came out, everyone quieted down and looked at Zhao Baiyu.

Zhao Baiyu smiled and said: "Zhao knows what you are worried about, but don't worry, since you promised you will make a lot of money before, naturally you will not let you suffer!"

After taking a sip of tea, he continued: "Everyone should have seen that although Zhao has reduced the price of grain to a low price of [-] Wen a catty, the daily limit is only a thousand catties of grain! One thousand catties, everyone How many rations do you think is enough? And two days later, as soon as Qingfeng returns to Zhao's house, the price of Zhao's food will immediately return to the original price, how can it be possible to want us to lose money!"

After hearing Zhao Baiyu's words, and seeing his promise, everyone was relieved. A thousand catties of grain is indeed not much. In a city as big as Jinling, there are hundreds of thousands of people in the city, and a thousand catties of grain , It's really not enough to watch, just sell it, anyway, it's only two days...

In this way, everyone can feel relieved...
