Yuchi Gong didn't speak.
The few people didn't say anything, and the Ganlu Palace fell into a dead silence.
They all realized that if there was no food, the people of Chang'an City might really dare to do this rebellious thing.
"Your Majesty, I am ignorant, and the Tang Dynasty has fallen to this point. I deserve to die for the real crime!" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin with a look of blame.
After hearing Fang Xuanling's words, Li Shimin understood what he meant.
He sighed slightly, but he also understood that if he didn't raise food quickly, it would be troublesome.
"I will investigate the corruption in Lantian County strictly for me. Anyone involved in the case, regardless of identity or friendship, will be executed on the spot!"
"I want to see how many people dare to reach into my grain warehouse!" Li Shimin slapped the table suddenly and said angrily.
"I obey the order!" Fang Xuanling immediately responded.
...
Li Shimin left the palace again.
He asked Cheng Yaojin to lead a large group of troops to the residence of Zheng's family in Chang'an City in Xingyang.
Zheng Yuanshou, the head of the Zheng family in Xingyang, has returned to his hometown in Xingyang at this moment.
Only Zheng He stayed in Chang'an City.
Zheng He also jumped when he heard the emperor visiting Zheng's mansion.
Hurry up and run outside to greet him.
"Zhenghe, Xingyang, pay homage to Your Majesty. Your Majesty is here. Zheng He is in trouble and welcomes you. Please forgive me!" Zheng He bowed his hand and said to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was dissatisfied with the five surnames and seven hopes, and he was in a very bad mood at this moment, and he didn't even have the desire to speak.
He waved at Zheng He and entered the mansion.
Zheng He was slightly panicked.
The emperor disliked the fact that the five surnames and seven hopes were all very clear about it.
I am here today, maybe I am here to deal with the Zheng family in Xingyang?
Zheng He gritted his teeth and followed Li Shimin.
"Zheng He, I'm here today, so I have something to discuss with you!" Li Shimin sat down, looked at Zheng He standing in front of him, and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty is so serious. If there is anything, Zheng He can help, Zheng He will do his best!"
"Zheng He dare not talk!" Zheng He bowed to Li Shimin.
But in my heart, I secretly scolded Li Shimin for cheating himself hard a few days ago.
I spent twice the price and bought more than 8,000 kilograms of ice.
That time, Zheng He's face almost swollen at home!
I want to help myself today and dream!
"The rainstorm in Chang'an cannot enter the city. Now the price of grain is soaring. If this continues, the people will definitely not be able to afford the food."
"Today, I am here to borrow food from you Zheng He!" Li Shimin said concisely.
He did not directly tell Zheng He about selling grain.
Maybe, the five surnames and seven hopes are willing to help them?
However, Li Shimin was soon disappointed!
"Your Majesty, now that we are short of food, we are not enough."
"And, Zheng He dared not make decisions about such an important matter. It would be better for Zheng He to prepare a letter. If his father allowed him, Zheng He would be willing to lend the only food to Your Majesty!" Zheng He refused Li Shimin's request in a righteous manner.
joke.
Zheng He and the other families had a final say, and they had about 300,000 stones of grain left.
If it takes a few days, I will take it to Chang'an City Street to sell it.
That would definitely make a fortune.
Zheng He regrets it now.
I had known that I shouldn't have been greedy for small gains and sold all the 600,000 stones of grain to Zhao Chen.
If I keep it all by myself, wouldn’t this game be directly directed to Wuhu?
It's hateful, that boy took advantage of it.
Although he had long expected that the Zheng family in Xingyang would have such an attitude, Li Shimin was extremely angry at this moment.
I am the emperor, and I personally speak to you.
You, Zheng, Xingyang, didn't even think about it, and just refused it to me.
Sure enough, the five surnames and seven hopes have lost my emperor in my heart.
The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more annoyed he became.
A sharp flashed in his eyes.
"Since that's the case, it's feasible for me to buy your food?" Li Shimin waved to Cheng Yaojin, and saw Cheng Yaojin bring the contract written by Zhao Chen and he.
"Buy?" Zheng He was slightly stunned, and then smiled.
"This is a contract, please see. If you can, you can pay the food!" Li Shimin said with anger.
Zheng He took the contract and glanced at it, his eyes suddenly glared out.
Twenty-months a bucket of food!
This price...
Zheng He was ecstatic.
Even in a few days, this price will not be sold.
Is Your Majesty the Emperor crazy?
Zheng He wanted to agree immediately.
"Your Majesty, this contract..." Zheng He suppressed the excitement in his heart and gritted his teeth to prevent himself from laughing.
"There is a problem with the contract?" Li Shimin said unhappily.
"No, Your Majesty has no problem with this contract, but why don't you stamp the treasure seal, but..."
"Rareless, you Zheng He dare to doubt Your Majesty?"
"A mere contract, your Majesty writes his name in his own hand, and the emperor's kindness is already great. Zheng He, pay attention to your identity!" Cheng Yaojin shouted violently.
Zheng He was shocked on the spot.
The contract did not stamp the emperor's seal, but signed Li Shimin's name.
Of course, this was also written by Zhao Chen.
"Zheng He doesn't dare, dare to ask His Majesty when will the money be..."
"Get all the food in three days, one million stones, and wait until the heavy rain stops, come to Taiji Palace to see me!" Li Shimin said, and stood up and walked out.
Zheng He was delighted.
Then I knew there was great potential for this matter.
At that time, he would go directly to the court with a contract. In front of all the civil and military officials in the court, would Li Shimin dare to pay his debts?
Twenty-fourth one dou.
Li Shimin, didn’t you cheat me before?
This time, you will double your repayment!
Zheng He was overjoyed.
...
The next morning, Zheng He discussed with the other companies.
The remaining 300,000 stones of grain were handed over to the emperor first.
For the remaining 700,000 stones, they went to another grain merchant to buy it.
When I heard that the emperor bought grain for twenty coins, the rest of the families were not moved.
All agreed.
On this day, Zheng He and the others came to Zhao Chen's tavern again.
Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu have not returned home these days.
Either stay in the warehouse or come to the tavern to drink.
Li Ruoshuang is here today too.
"Young Master Zhao, I'm here again today!" Zheng He walked into the tavern with a smirk.
But I kept cursing myself.
If I hadn't been greedy for a small advantage, I would have sold all the 600,000 stones of grain to Zhao Chen.
I'm afraid they've made a lot of money long ago.
Now, I came to ask Zhao Chen to sell the grain back to him.
If this kid doesn't raise the price, he will be really stupid.
The other grain merchants and shopkeepers were smiling at this moment, and they wanted to strangle Zhao Chen to death.
I thought to myself that this kid actually foresaw the heavy rain in Chang'an City.
It's really a little skill!
Seeing Zheng He coming again, Li Ruoshuang and others looked at Zhao Chen suspiciously.
Zhao Chen had a smile on his face.
I understand that Lao Li has handed over his plan.
However, the emperor was really obedient and went to Zheng He to sell food so easily.
"A few of you are here today, but you still want to sell food?"
Chapter completed!
