After saying that, Li Shimin stopped talking and looked at Zhao Chen with anticipation.
For Li Shimin, what he believed most at this moment was Zhao Chen.
These days, Zhao Chen has done a lot of difficult things for him.
Many things cannot be solved even by civil and military officials in the court.
Li Shimin felt a little regretful, regretting why he didn't listen to Zhao Chen before and stocked up more food.
"The grain in Chang'an City has increased by one cent in recent days, and in a few days, it will probably double."
"If I waited for the rain for twenty days, I would probably have to sell this dou of rice for fifteen cents per dou."
"Old Mr. Li, this is a good thing for me, but a disaster for the people of Chang'an City. Do you know?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Shimin and said slowly.
Li Shimin nodded.
How could he not understand this?
If the grain really rises to fifteen cents per dou, how many people will starve to death by then.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin was even more anxious.
"Although I have 700,000 s of grain here, if I take it out now, I can make some money, but the people will suffer the damage."
"Why don't we think of a way to trick a wave of five surnames and seven hopes?" Zhao Chen said slowly, a hint of lust flashing in his eyes.
He already knew that the people who sold his 600,000 stones of grain a few days ago belonged to the five surnames and Qiwang.
Zheng He, the leader, is even more from the Zheng family in Xingyang.
Don’t these people think that Zhao Chen is stupid?
Zhao Chen wanted to see who is this fool!
"Take the five surnames and seven hopes?" Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhao Chen without reacting for a moment.
"Of course, if you don't want to, I can sell you this food now. At that time, either the treasury will be in owed or the people will suffer."
"What should I do? Think about it yourself!" Zhao Chen waved his hand indifferently.
"It's still a matter of thinking. Of course, I want to cheat the people of the five surnames and seven hopes." Li Shimin immediately stood up.
Previously, at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, he used the excuse to rectify the imperial examination system.
After saying this, the order was issued.
But who knows whether the place follows his Li Shimin's meaning?
The five surnames and seven hopes were like giant pythons entrenched on the foundation of his Tang Dynasty, making Li Shimin breathless.
However, Li Shimin was a little surprised. Why did Zhao Chen think about cheating the five surnames and seven hopes?
Did they offend Zhao Chen?
"Boy Zhao, the five surnames and seven hopes..."
"Zheng He from Zheng's family in Xingyang said I was a fool!" Before Li Shimin finished asking, Zhao Chen replied to him.
Li Shimin shook his face twice.
"It's because of this?" Li Shimin was a little confused.
I thought to myself that this kid is so vengeful, so should I be more careful in the future?
Maybe one day I will cheat Zhao Chen.
Even if he sells it, he still has to count the money?
"There is a contract here. You can submit it and ask the saint to talk to the person in charge of the five surnames and Qi Wang." Zhao Chen handed over a contract that had not yet been done and said to Li Shimin.
"Contract?" Li Shimin frowned.
I thought to myself that Zhao Chen wouldn't have known that he was coming here long ago.
Even the contract was prepared in advance.
This kid...
Li Shimin was secretly shocked.
As his eyes swept over the contract in his hand, Li Shimin suddenly jumped up.
"Boy, are you crazy?" Li Shimin stared at Zhao Chen with disbelief.
"A twenty-month one dou of food, are you kidding someone?"
"Twenty-months per dou, one million stones, that's 200,000 guan. Let's not talk about whether the treasury can take out so much money."
"And, you are not trying to cheat the five surnames and seven hopes, it is clearly..."
Speaking of this, Li Shimin did not say anything further.
How could Zhao Chen cheat on the five surnames and seven hopes?
It’s obvious that he wants to cheat him, Li Shimin!
I'm afraid this kid has already known my identity and secretly wants to take revenge on me?
Li Shimin thought to himself.
"You're so panicked!" Zhao Chen cursed.
Li Shimin's expression stagnated and stared at Zhao Chen.
"If you don't raise the price, will people agree to your request?" Zhao Chen said.
"But the price is simply outrageous, no one in the court can agree!" Li Shimin felt a little painful with his teeth.
If this money is really taken out, wouldn’t he, Li Shimin, become the sucker?
Li Shimin believed very much that Zhao Chen was clearly trying to harm him.
"You won't wait for the rainy season to settle the 200,000 guan with them?" Zhao Chen said.
"But you still have to give this money?" Li Shimin stared at her eyes.
He couldn't even figure out whether he was making trouble for Zhao Chen.
This kid is trying to mess with himself?
"What are you giving? Do what I said, and ensure that you get one million stones of food, and you don't have to spend money in the end. At most, it's just to make the five surnames Qi Wang furious!" Zhao Chen scolded, his face full of impatientness.
.
If someone dares to talk to him like this, Li Shimin, his head will be beaten wrongly.
But now...
Li Shimin opened his mouth and looked at Zhao Chen with disbelief, saying, "Are you sure?"
"Remember, I have imposed a secret method for this contract. Before tonight, I must hand it over to the hands of the five surnames Qi Wang."
"If time passes, there will be no chance!"
"Okay, you can leave now, don't disturb my sleep!" Zhao Chen waved his hand and lay on the counter again.
Li Shimin looked at the contract in his hand carefully.
It was confirmed that there was no problem with this contract, and for a moment, I couldn't guess what Zhao Chen meant.
Have you used a secret technique?
Li Shimin didn't believe it.
But this food is still needed, otherwise, Chang'an City will definitely be in chaos.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin gritted his teeth, put away the contract in his hand, and turned around and left the tavern.
...
"Your Majesty, who wrote this contract is simply a fool."
"This is to completely empty my Tang Dynasty treasury."
"Twenty-hundred thousand trump card, let the five surnames and Qi Wang make money for nothing?"
In Ganlu Palace, Fang Xuanling held the contract written by Zhao Chen for Li Shimin in his hand, and his face looked extremely angry.
I bought grain at a high price of 20 yuan per dou, but this person could think of it.
Fang Xuanling even had some doubts whether the person who wrote this contract was the one with the five surnames and Qi Wang.
Otherwise, how could such a contract be there?
I wish I could give all the money from the Tang Dynasty treasury to the five surnames and Qiwang?
"Fang Xiang, now that the rainstorm is going on, the price of each bucket of grain has increased by 50%.
"It seems that the rain will continue. In this way, Chang'an City will definitely be short of food."
"The food prices soar. If the people can't have enough food, they will definitely be in chaos!" Li Shimin said slowly, worried.
If Zhao Chen hadn't given him too outrageous, he wouldn't have attracted Fang Xuanling and others.
At this moment, Li Shimin felt that he was slashing his head, and slashing his head was also slashing his head!
"Your Majesty, the people still dare to cause trouble. Finally, the generals will take the imperial guards of the Northern Yai over there. Who dares to move around?" Yuchi Gong said aloud.
"Absurdly, what mistakes did the people make? It's the blame for us officials of the court."
