Chapter Fifty-Seven: Cunning and Conspiracy
Lu Kezhong could hear it, and only listened to Yang Yingqi continue: "As for how to regulate grain prices, not only to make merchants willing to transport grain to sell, but also to ensure that the treasury is inexhaustible and the people are not poor, there is a lot of knowledge in this." I made it clear for a while. Let's learn as we go. ”
Lu Kezhong sighed when he heard this: "The Seven Generals' plans are like ghosts and gods, which is beyond Kezhong's reach!" After a pause, he said: "However, grain and rice are the foundation of the country, and merchants are willing to buy and sell, but I am afraid that the imperial courts of various countries will impose more restrictions." ”
Yang Yingqi nodded and said: "Now that we are a small place and have a small population, there is no problem in supplying tens of thousands of people in the Han Department with surplus grain from all over the world. But in the long run, you'll have to plan for it differently. That's a later story, I have other arrangements. ”
At this time, Lu Kezhong was already impressed by Yang Yingqi, and saluted: "Kezhong is foolish, and he is willing to whip and drive horses for the seven generals to do his best." ”
Yang Yingqi smiled and said: "Such a chaotic situation in Jinmen has also been handled in an orderly manner for you, how can it be foolish!" ”
Lu Kezhong said: "First, there are a large number of cadres who are proficient in counting and counting personnel trained by the Seventh General, and second, there are laws and regulations set by the Seventh General, otherwise Kezhong has ten pairs of eyes, ten hands, ten heads and ten mouths, and he can't finish so many things." ”
Yang Yingqi smiled: "Okay, okay." We are our own people, and we will shoot fewer horses in the future. In fact, when it comes to making regulations, legislating the system, and making overall plans, you are not as good as me. When it comes to administrative affairs, I'm no match for you! It's hard for me to deal with the trivial things you've done right now. After a pause, he said: "Speaking of which, the price of food outside has risen almost now, and it's time to stop." You want to make arrangements, I want to meet the head of the Lin family. ”
Lu Kezhong knew that most of the seven generals had a plan, and at this time he was quite clear about Yang Yingqi's style of doing things, and he was also a smart person, so he smiled tacitly and went out to do errands. In the evening, he summoned Huang Jing, implying that his seventh general was very dissatisfied with the Lin family's raising of rice prices, and it was best to let the Lin family hurry up and go to the door, otherwise not only the Lin family would be in trouble, but even his Huang family would be implicated.
Huang Jing was taken aback, and came to see Lin Ling overnight, but Lin Ling only smiled when she heard it, and Huang Jing said in surprise: "Lin Dashao!" What kind of attitude do you have! ”
Lin Ling smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, Lin Ling won't affect Uncle Huang if anything happens." It's just that if you can trouble Uncle Huang to go around again, I want to ask this seventh general to give me a meeting. ”
Huang Jing said: "Of course I have to ask to see him!" How else could this be? ”
After Huang Jing's running, Yang Yingqi agreed to meet Lin Ling on the third day, but asked Lin Ling to come alone. After Huang Jing explained Yang Yingqi's words, he instructed again and again: "This seventh general is not an idle person, and he has great power in Dajin, so he must not be offended!" ”
Lin Ling agreed with a smile, sorted out his clothes and came to the back mountain of Zhuxu Mountain to see Yang Yingqi, and was introduced by the boy, only to see a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy playing chess with a young monk about thirty years old. Lin Ling was stunned for a moment, and looked at the boy who led him in, but the boy didn't squint and didn't respond.
Lin Ling didn't know where the seven generals were, so he stepped forward, only to see that the outcome on the chessboard had been decided, and the young man's sunspot was staggering, and he was about to retreat when the monk made the final blow. Lin Ling understood this, looked at it twice, and said in his heart: "This young man's chess skills are very average!" Looking at this situation, this monk's chess strength is not low, and he is completely guiding this young man. Could it be that this monk is the Seven Generals? The monk is a general, and the political system of the foreign clan is really chaotic! ”
Suddenly, the young man sighed, "No, no, no!" Why is this Go so difficult! ”
The monk smiled and said: "There must be a shortage of natural geniuses, and I think that Master Su has never met in a hundred years, and he has not made any achievements on this black and white road." Even if you can't learn chess, the seven generals don't have to be too annoyed. ”
Lin Ling was taken aback when she heard this, and said in her heart: "Could it be that this young man is the seventh general?" How can there be such a miracle in the world? "It would not be surprising if the official position of this Seven Generals was hereditary, but judging from all kinds of rumors, it seems that he is clearly a person who ascended to the throne with talent, how can he be so young?
But I heard the young man say: "Where do I dare to go to Mr. Bidongpo?" However, I heard that he is a middle-aged scholar, so it is difficult to succeed. I am not yet 17 years old this year, why is it so slow to enter the country? ”
The monk muttered, "It is very strange to say that the cause is also very strange. The seventh general is not very old, but looking at this chess move, his mental strength is not like that of a young man at all. ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, threw away the chess pieces in his hand and said, "I know." That's it, it's ......" As soon as he looked up at Lin Ling and asked the boy, the boy hurriedly said: "This is Lin Ling Lin Gongzi." ”
Before Lin Ling gave a salute, the monk had already stood up and said, "Since the Seventh General has a guest arrived, the witness has left first." ”
Yang Yingqi nodded and said, "The monk walks slowly, Yingqi won't send it." ”
After listening to the answer between the two, Lin Ling finally determined that this young man was the Seventh General, and suddenly remembered that Huang Jing had told him that the Seventh General was very young, and at that time he thought that no matter how young he was, he would be at least twenty or thirty years old, but he didn't know that it was less than twenty! It turned out that Huang Jing said a lot of words about the "Seven Generals", but he forgot to explain Yang Yingqi's specific age! Although Lin Ling heard that this seventh general was young, he didn't expect him to be so young.
After the monk went out, Yang Yingqi changed his face, glanced at Lin Ling, his eyes lit up, and then he hid it, and said coldly: "You are Lin Ling?" Hum! The face still looks like a Sven, but how dare he is bigger than a leopard! Are you guilty of raising prices and disrupting people's livelihood? ”
Lin Ling was not intimidated, and said with a smile: "Lin Ling came to the north, and he also read the "Jinmen Law Prohibition" promoted by the Huang family. May I ask the Seventh General, which legal prohibition did Lin Ling violate? Or is there another law in the Tsumen? ”
Yang Yingqi said: "Even in the law you read, there is also a way to stabilize the price of grain: in a famine year, plague, war, or shortage of grain and rice, the price of grain shall not be higher than more than 30% of the current price. If the offender violates the law, the public has the right to forcibly purchase all the grain stored by the merchant at the current price. And the offender shall be punished with money and misappropriation depending on the severity of the offense. ”
Lin Ling asked, "Then may I ask the Seventh General, before Lin Ling arrived, what was the current price of rice in Jinmen?" ”
Yang Yingqi couldn't help but say that Fuzhou does not produce rice, although there is a rice production place in the northeast, but it is an extremely precious "warm water field", and most of the rice produced flows to the royal relatives in Huining and Liaojing. The Lin family was the first to actually transport large quantities of rice into Jinmen. There was no rice on the market before, where did the rice price come from?
Lin Ling said: "The first chapter of this book "The Law of Jinmen" says: There is a law first, and then there is a crime, the law does not go back, and the crime is not punished arbitrarily. However, I heard that this decree was written by the Seven Generals, and since the Seven Generals can be established, they can also be changed! If the Seventh General really wanted to change his way to punish Lin Ling, then Lin Ling would have nothing to do. ”
Yang Yingqi reprimanded: "Nonsense! The rules you set by yourself can be changed by anyone, but you can't change them. Otherwise, how can you win the trust of others in the future? ”
Lin Ling followed closely and said: "Lin Ling is not guilty of the law, and he has been wrong. If the seventh general really wants to be punished, Lin is willing to bear it. ”
Yang Yingqi laughed, motioned for the boy to go out, and said to Lin Ling: "You guy! Am you sure I won't embarrass you? ”
Lin Ling said: "What I did was actually exactly what the Seventh General wanted me to do. In that case, why should the Seventh General still embarrass me? ”
Yang Yingqi snorted and said, "What do I want you to do?" Tell me about it! ”
Lin Ling said: "Huang Lu Huang Jing is not a big-minded person, this time Jinmen has such a good opportunity, he doesn't exclude my Lin family, even took the initiative to invite us to come north." Although Lin Ling was young, he was neither blind nor stupid, so he naturally guessed that this was not his intention. If this is not his intention, who will direct him? If Lin Ling's guess is right, it is none other than the Seventh General who really wants our Lin family to come north! ”
