After Miao Xian left, the atmosphere in the hall was a little stagnant.

King Zhao looked around and suddenly laughed.

"You guys didn't eat Gong food, right? Come on, let's have a meal here today."

The important officials were stunned at first, then smiled.

"Then I'll bother the king once today."

The breakfast with constant flowing water was delivered, and finally filled the emptiness of this long waiting period.

On the other hand, Miao Xian had just left the palace when he heard a warm greeting.

"Where is the eunuch's order going?"

Miao Xian turned his head and saw Guo Kai’s smiling face.

Miao Xian is usually disgusted with a slander like Guo Kai and does not talk much to Guo Kai.

But today, Miao Xian's eyes turned and his steps stopped.

"Doctor Guo, the king ordered me to go out of the palace to find out the price of grain. Are you interested in going with me?"

When Guo Kai heard this, he was surprised and happy.

"If you can do things for the king, you can still receive the teachings of eunuchs. How can Guo Kai not leave?"

The two of them got on the carriage and hurriedly left the palace.

The east city is too far away, so the two chose the west city.

In the carriage, Guo Kai carefully tested:

"The eunuch-ling should like Li Qing more, right?"

Everyone knows that Miao Xian is Lin Xiangru's benefactor, let alone the relationship between Lin Xiangru and Li Jian.

Miao Xian smiled and said:

"Who is it important for me to be in this matter?"

"What's important is what the food price is."

When Guo Kai heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"What the eunuchs said is very true, and the officials also think so."

Guo Kai said this, but he didn't think so in his heart.

Of course Guo Kai wants to see Li Jian make a fool of himself!

In the eyes of people outside, the three ministers that King Zhao trusted the most are Guo Kai, Yu Xin and Li Jian.

Among them, Guo Kai is the best at playing with him, Yu Xin is good at strategy, while Li Jian is in a good way to do everything.

Guo Kai had a natural jealousy towards Yu Xin and Li Jian.

He wanted to trample these two people under his feet and become King Zhao's favorite ministers alone.

Only in this way can the power of the court and the country be as powerful as the latter victory of Qi.

"If you have the chance this time, you must give Li Jian eye drops!"

Don’t forget that there are actually some personal grudges between Guo Kai and Li Jian.

The two of them had their own thoughts and rushed all the way to the west city.

Miao Xian was very neat in his work. He just arrived in the West City and went directly to find the person in charge.

"I am the eunuch Ling Miao Xian, and I am with this doctor Guo Kai to do business under the orders of the king!"

When King Zhao took out his signature, he naturally had everything he wanted.

In just over a dozen minutes, the prices in all grain stores have been reported.

"Thirty-eight, thirty-seven, forty-one, forty, thirty-seven qian and five..."

The numbers are summarized quickly and then calculated.

Miao Xian held this result and his expression was a bit complicated.

Guo Kai was on the side, and he was so anxious that he wanted to know the result immediately.

How many exactly?

Finally, Guo Kai saw this number.

The moment he saw this number, Guo Kai's eyes widened instantly.

Miao Xian breathed a sigh of relief and put the statistical report into his sleeve. He glanced at the Zhao officials in front of him who were so busy that they were sweating on their foreheads.

"If this number is wrong, the king will pursue it and everyone else will be killed."

The officials answered repeatedly:

"Reassure the eunuchs, this number is absolutely false!"

These officials are not stupid either. They have been in the market for a long time. They have been dealing with merchants all day long, and they have become talented people.

The market grain prices have risen to this point these days, and they have long known that it is the big figures and immortals above fighting.

At this time, if you commit fraud, no matter which big person is caught by you, you will definitely die.

Be honest in reporting the real numbers, so that no one can blame them, is the way to survive!

Miao Xian nodded, turned to Guo Kai and said:

"Doctor Guo, let's go back to the palace."

Royal Palace Hall.

An hour has passed.

Of course the breakfast has been finished.

Since King Zhao was present, no one dared to whisper, so they could only wait quietly in their seats.

Li Jian closed his eyes and rested for a while, and many things from these days flashed through his mind.

Recalling is a good habit.

On the other hand, Pingyuan Jun was not that calm. He looked at Li Jian and Lin Xiangru.

Pingyuan Jun's expression was expectant.

After losing his position as prime minister, this lord urgently needed a political victory to rebuild his prestige.

Finally, the sound of rapid footsteps rang out.

Everyone was excited and looked towards the palace at the same time.

Miao Xian took Guo Kai and walked into the hall quickly.

Both of them were in a hurry to travel, which could be seen from the sweat on their foreheads.

King Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief and asked:

"Eunuch's order, tell me the result!"

King Zhao has long been impatient.

Usually, there is a long time to discuss the court, but it is basically a matter of discussion.

It was indeed the first time I had nothing to do and wait for an hour in vain like today.

Anyway, it is impossible for this King Zhao to do it again.

Now King Zhao is thinking about something.

End it quickly!

Miao Xian obviously understood King Zhao's thoughts very well. After saluting, he quickly took out a report from his sleeve.

"King, this is the current food price I just collected from all the grain stores in Xicheng City."

"All officials in the West City are willing to guarantee the authenticity of this grain price."

Li Jian listened aside, and was also impressed.

He is worthy of being an old man, and his speaking level is very high.

In one sentence, all the responsibility for future data errors is pushed to the officials in the West City, which can be said to be a perfect blame.

Worth learning.

King Zhao was a little anxious and reached out to snatch the data from Miao Xian's hand.

Although there are not as many grain stores in the West City as in the East City, there are still twenty or thirty.

So King Zhao was too lazy to look at the data from one family, but looked directly at the final summary.

After reading this summary number, King Zhao's face also changed a little.

This immediately made everyone's hearts rise.
