I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 256
Crazy, the grain merchants are crazy, causing the price of grain in Bianliang to go crazy.

It is estimated that this should be the case in all three places.

The next day, the day after the grain merchants had finished buying the stored grain in Changping warehouse, the price of grain soared directly.

The opening of the market is directly two hundred coins per fight!

Zhao Xi was very leisurely, so he took three or five people and booked a box in a restaurant, drinking tea, watching the slogans of the grain store opposite, and the scene that seemed lively.

Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, and Zhao Xi didn't underestimate it either.

As far as this scene is concerned, the acting is pretty good.

Right at the entrance of the largest grain store in Bianliang, people are bustling with people. Under the sign of "two hundred coins per bucket", a group of people are scrambling to loot.

Shouting: Give me ten Dou... I want twenty Dou... That's a lot of fun.

"Your Highness, Bianliang is still short of food! The people are still panicking."

Han Zhen is the kind of gentleman who is upright and doesn't spend much time in it.Seeing this scene, I couldn't help feeling a little worried, even timid.

He could imagine what it would be like if the day after tomorrow, if all the grain sales outlets were opened up here, and it was still the fifty cents a dou that His Royal Highness told him.

"Lack of food? Yuru, it's just playing tricks. I'll find out after seeing the detection of the Imperial City Secretary."

Play this kind of trick?If you can't even see this, you are too sorry for your extra thousand years of knowledge.

"Your Highness, as far as we know, the person who buys grain in this store is a guy from the grain store on Mahang Street. He buys grain from here and puts it in the grain store on Mahang Street."

"At the same time, the shoppers of the grain store on Maxing Street are the shop assistants of Xiangjieting Grain Store. They buy grain from Maxing Street and put it in Xiangjieting."

"The people who buy grain at the Xiangjieting Grain Store are the guys here. After buying grain at Xiangjieting, they enter the grain store through the back door."

"Although the three grain stores are not owned by the same owner, as far as we know, the amount of grain purchased each time is the same..."

Tongue twisters generally said a lot.

"Your Highness, this is..."

Han Zhen is not stupid, how could he not understand this?

"It's just changing the left hand for the right hand. It's just building momentum, and I want to tell the whole Bianliang that Bianliang City is still short of food!"

Since this method can be thought of, it should be more than that, right?

Zhao Xi was thinking about the follow-up for the other party...

"It is estimated that tomorrow, these grain stores will reduce their prices, maybe the day after tomorrow..."

It would be great if that was the case, and it would be impossible to tell who was cooperating with whom.

Zhao Xi really hoped that the time for them to lower the price would be the day after tomorrow.

"Price reduction? Active price reduction?"

"Yuru, what is the purpose of the grain merchants to raise the price of grain? It must not be such a high grain price to make me happy. The purpose is to sell the hoarded grain."

"I did so much in the early stage and stored so much food, but I just wanted to sell it at a high price to make a profit."

"But the imperial court let go of the Changping warehouse in this way, and even emptied the Changping warehouse directly, and announced that the old grain should be replaced with new grain, and there are not many refugees in the entire Kaifeng Prefecture."

"This is very different from previous years, and it makes them feel uneasy. In addition, there is too much food in their hands... It takes up too much money. Therefore, they need to sell some as soon as possible..."

As Zhao Xi said, he also felt that his guess should be similar.

How much you plan to sell, and how much money is appropriate, this is uncertain.

"Your Highness, since you want to make more money, why do you want to lower the price?"

"No... look at those people..."

Zhao Xi pointed to those people on both sides of the street who were watching the fun but frowning... These are the people who really have the urge and need to buy food.

"The purpose is this group of people. Hypothetical, let's talk about a hypothetical. You like an item and have seen it several times, but because the price is too high, you can't make up your mind to buy it."

"It's been so embarrassing for a long time. Suddenly one day, the price of your favorite items suddenly dropped..."

Needless to say, most people will choose to buy the moment the price drops.

As for what excuse to lower the price?Zhao Xi had already thought about it for them.

It can be said that the grandmother is seriously ill, and pray for the price reduction for the grandmother.

It can also be said that the family added food and imported it. Thanks to God, the price was reduced for one day.

Anyway, I have to explain one thing, that is, the opportunity is not to be missed, and the time will never come again.

Then... there will always be people who can't help it, and there will always be people who can't wait to see the results of their regular positions.

"Your Highness..."

Needless to say, Zhao Xi knew what Han Zhen wanted to express.

"The imperial court opened the Changping Warehouse, although what is sold is old grain, it should be enough for ordinary people to spend for a month."

"There is a trust issue here. If you believe that the imperial court will not abandon the people, and you don't lack food and don't have much money left, you won't be tempted by these things."

Zhao Xi is the savior, at least for the people of the current state, he does have the qualifications of a savior.But he can't save everyone.

Well, looking at Han Zhen's appearance, it seems that if I don't do something, I can't get past his eyes.

"Publish an article in the Cuju Express, the kind of country slang. The title... it's called food shortage."

very vulgar!

The next day, the price of grain in the grain store did not drop, not at any one, and it was even five cents more than yesterday.

very good!

Zhao Xi didn't go to the restaurant to relax, but inspected all the grain storage areas, various markets and the huge carriages sent to various places.

Watching those little tricks is boring, he still needs to worry about arranging his deployment.

Lu Gong is very competent in writing, and his execution ability is quite good.Although he couldn't figure out the way of bartering, Zhao Xi's arrangement was strictly implemented.

At this time, Cuju Express was issued.

"There is no shortage of grain in Bianliang. Since the start of the water transport, grain transport ships from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong and Guangxi have been sent to Bianliang..."

To put it bluntly, pure rural slang, but from various aspects such as water transportation, Bianliang loss, grain storage in previous years, and the number of victims of disasters, it clearly explains the grain storage situation in Bianliang.

Even women and children can understand that Bianliang has plenty of food.

The article does not say that the grain merchants are unkind and unrighteous, but simply tells a fact.

And it is emphatically proposed that the imperial court will not disregard the life and death of the people and empty the Changping warehouse...~It means something.

Zhao Xi still left some room for giving people a chance to repent.

There are still experts in this old six family!
Just after the release of Cuju Express, it is estimated that the breadth of dissemination has reached a certain level. The price of food in some grain stores in Bianliang City suddenly dropped to [-] yuan a bucket...

This is the right time!I really can't say anything.

How should I put it, Zhao Xi had thought about doing something like this today, but now it's saved, and he can arrange it himself.

Very good, this is a reminder. I hope that with this reminder, these grain merchants can use various excuses to reduce prices tomorrow.

And here... Hahahaha!It's really hard to tell who will cooperate with whom.

He is relaxed, really relaxed.

At first there was still a little uncertainty, but after a while, it was completely at ease.

He leisurely returned to the palace, and continued his daily waking up and twilight.

"Xi'er, go to the Chui Gong Palace quickly! I have sent people here three times, and ordered you to go to the Chui Gong Palace after returning to the palace!"

Before saying hello, the empress hurriedly chased Zhao Xi away.

what happened?At this juncture, don't have any other business.
