Chapter 89: The right plan, the strange plan

Originally, Emperor Jing He thought that when things got here, it was already clear.

Adding one-quarter of the rice into the bran and making porridge, it no longer treats the people as livestock, but does its best to help disaster relief and more people.

In this way, 12 million stones of grain can be turned into 24 million stones of bran rice.

Even if men who work hard work don't eat this, the remaining elderly, weak, sick and disabled can increase their rations for at least one month, and last for more than three months in total.

With more than a month of buffering time, the court can still recover no matter how hard it is.

For example, put the new grain from Jiangnan into the warehouse, then take out the old grain, strive to get 10 million stones, and then take it to the Lianghu area.

If you do the same according to the ratio of bran rice, it will last for almost three months.

At that time, the court tax payments, salt administration, porcelain, raw silk and so on will be paid.

With this money, you can buy some more food, so that the victims can survive until next summer harvest, so there will be no big problem.

Looking at Liu Mingqi again, Jing Hedi's eyes were much softer at this time.

Mingqi is indeed my Qilin son!

It is really a genius given to us by God at this time that can come up with ideas that no one can think of.

Such a genius cannot be wasted. In the future, the prince ascended the throne, and he must be a counselor who gave advice to the emperor like Mohe.

In this way, there is no need to worry about violating the ancestral system and not burying his abilities.

Thinking of his previous stern scolding of this child and all kinds of negative emotions, Jing Hedi felt a little guilty and wondered how to give him some compensation.

But before he could speak, Miao Yan suddenly walked out and bowed to Liu Mingqi.

Liu Mingqi was startled, "Mr. Miao?"

"The officials thank the prince for saving his life for the people who were affected by the disaster in the world." Miao Yan said seriously: "From then on, with your method, the court will be more generous and will be able to save the lives of more disaster victims!"

"I dare not take it, I dare not take it." Liu Mingqi shook her hand.

Although he was very helpful in his heart, he couldn't be so arrogant on the surface, otherwise the emperor would have to scold people again.

"But you still have to pay attention to not let those grain merchants stir-fry the prices of wheat bran and rice bran, as it would be fatal at that time." Liu Mingqi reminded again.

This is not so much to say to Miao Yan, but to say to the emperor.

Dakang attaches great importance to business development.

If you want the business of an industry to develop well, you must not break the rules by yourself.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, you cannot forcefully interfere with what merchants do.

Unless there is legislation.

After the legislation was legislated, the merchants did not abide by it, that means they were wrong and the court could punish them.

But everything they do is allowed by law, and no matter how powerful the officials are, they cannot punish them out of nothing.

For example, the last time Miao Yan asked those grain merchants to ask them not to raise prices or increase supply.

Why can Miao Yan endure the temper and tell them that he was not arrested and tortured?

Because it is not illegal for businessmen to do this. You are using administrative means to interfere in business, and you are completely unable to afford it!

The Legalists can only do things according to the law. If the laws do not say anything, they cannot act recklessly, otherwise they will become cruel officials who will harm the country and the people.

Jing Hedi asked, "How to prevent it? It's hard to stipulate whether they will rise or not? It's just like rice and wheat flour."

"Simple, it is enough to directly stipulate that the price of bran is always only one-third of the rice price and wheat flour price." Liu Mingqi said: "No matter whether it increases the price or not, all we need is this exchange value. As long as the exchange ratio is the same, we can exchange 1 kilogram of grain for 3 kilograms of bran."

"wonderful!"

Miao Yan clapped his hands and screamed.

He was still struggling here just now, but he didn't expect such a big problem or such a simple strategy to solve it.

This is also a loss to the times.

Otherwise, if you learn a little about the economy, you will know that the combination of "price linkage" and "price float mechanism" will be easy to come up with this strategy.

Miao Yan turned around and bowed: "Your Majesty, this decree should be spread throughout the country. If there are any violations, you can search your home and exile!"

Emperor Jinghe also felt it was correct, "Okay, wait until the Prime Minister and the Monks come, discuss and issue orders."

"Your Highness the Prince!"

Miao Yan immediately turned around and bowed, "Your Highness knows that you are talented and can think of places that ordinary people cannot think of... Do you dare to ask if you have any ideas now? Please don't worry. As long as you can help with disaster relief, even if it cannot be implemented, it is a direction that can be discussed! For the sake of millions of people affected, please give me a message!"

The dignified third-rank official, the prefect of the Imperial Capital, and the dignified Miao Heizi actually paid such a continuous worship. No one is left with such sincerity.

Liu Mingqi was a little embarrassed and thought for a while and said, "What Your Majesty said just now is that you can mobilize more grain in the granary of the capital to go to the two lakes. I think it is actually feasible, but some minor adjustments are needed."

Emperor Jing He was interested, "Speak carefully!"

"The considerations of the dynasty were correct. After all, the capital is the heart of a country, and there should be no chaos at all." Liu Mingqi said: "But now, what they are mainly worried about is that the residents in the Gyeonggi area have no food to eat, so that there is a tendency to turmoil, right?"

"Yes." Miao Yan nodded.

"Actually everyone knows that grain merchants in the Gyeonggi area actually have food. If they are willing to sell grain honestly, they don't have to use the imperial reserve grain at all, right?"

"right!"

"So we just need to think of an idea and let grain merchants continue to sell food, right?"

"right."

"The main reason they don't sell food is to make more money by selling more money. But you can't just set the price to a position that normal people can't afford because they want to make more money, so that they can't directly throw the food into their hands. After all, in two or three months, the autumn grain from Jiangnan will arrive in the capital, right?"

"right!"

"Now the imperial court has set a 40-cent liter of grain. The price they can make more than double the profit, or even close to twice. I think at this price, as long as big grain merchants can keep shipping on the surface, those small and medium grain merchants will definitely increase their sales on a large scale.

Because they have a lower ability than big grain merchants and are more afraid that the court will release grain to suppress the price of grain, so it is better to put them into the bag. As for whether to do business, then when the situation improves, isn’t it good to talk about it?”

"What do you mean... In the future, will the food on the market be relatively abundant?" Miao Yan slowly recalled the boy's words.

"This is the case in the early stage, but it is not necessarily the case later, because the people's money is not always sufficient." Liu Mingqi said, "Once the number of people buying is reduced and the demand is reduced, they will be vigilant to take back the food put on the market, thus causing another tension and then causing a new round of panic."

"You just tell me what to do!" Emperor Jing He ordered.

When it comes to economic details, he is far from being patient and curious as Miao Yan.

"It's very simple. We just need to let the people have money." Liu Mingqi replied, "As long as they have money, they can continue to buy grain. As long as there are many demands, small and medium-sized grain merchants will drive large grain merchants to ship goods, and there will be no shortage of grain."

"What if the big grain merchants still refuse?" Miao Yan asked.

"No one can be united, especially in business." Liu Mingqi said: "There are particularly tough among these, some are not firm in mind, or a bunch of dark history. As long as they grasp their weaknesses and force them hard, some people will naturally not be able to hold on to ship the goods.

If one person comes out, there will be a second person. The second one begins, and the rest will never be stopped. We can only ship the goods together. Otherwise, if you throw them into your hands, your property will be lost."

Liu Mingqi didn't say anything randomly.

The price avalanche of many commercial materials in history came from the first selling of one or two people.

The heart of a businessman can never resist temptation.

Miao Yan smiled on his face.

He remembered the unclean Zheng Laosan who was covered in dirty things.

Just in time, let you taste what the Legalism method is!

If you subdue the biggest thorn, then the next step will be easier for others.

After thinking about it, Miao Yan looked at Liu Mingqi and sighed: "Your Highness, your talent does not need to be in the affairs of the court, it is a huge waste!

Such a big thing, after you have such a rigorous analysis, it is like a bright future, and it seems that the lower officials can see the future development... It's great!"

"Mingqi is a good child." Jing Hedi also praised with a smile: "The most important thing is God's blessing, which gives my royal family such a talented military advisor!"

After a pause, he said, "But Mingqi, there is still a big difficulty in listening to you! If the people want to buy food, they have to have money. They are short of money, and the court can use various work opportunities to make money... But where did the court get so much money to them? There are more than 9 million people in the capital area!"

Jing Hedi’s question actually happened to be the next step Miao Yan wants to ask.

It is also the key to solving the grain problem in the Gyeonggi region.

Once the money problem is solved, the people can buy food and grain merchants will also sell food, so the imperial court's inventory of grain can be transported to the Lianghu area to a greater extent.

With Liu Mingqi's method of mixing rice with three portions of bran and bran, the court's losses this time will not be too heavy.

But if the court cannot find money to send to the people who work, they can only sell the stored grain, or open a porridge shed, and distribute porridge every day to maintain the lives of the people.

At that time, the imperial court's inventory of grain could not be moved at all, and the situation in the two lakes would become even worse. It is said that all the methods of using bran to make porridge may not be able to overcome the difficulties.
