Chen's grain shop

The shopkeeper looked at the long queue with a smug face, just before the boss raised the price of rice, in order to earn more silver, take more change, but on this basis he secretly added one percent, as long as the people in this team finished buying food, his purse, it must be too bulging to drum anymore.

When the time came to return home, the yellow-faced woman of the family saw the silver and could not say that he was capable.

Just as he was proud, he saw a group of people suddenly swarming in front of the door, and the shopkeeper couldn't help but look at Changlong suspiciously, what was going on

Just thinking about this question, he saw that the people queuing up to buy food seemed to see acquaintances, and hurriedly stopped to ask.

"Don't you know the way? There is a Liu's grain shop next to Jinfeng Restaurant, and the grain there is still sold at the previous grain price. ”

"I won't talk to you more, so many people go to buy food, maybe I'll be gone late." The man said that he didn't wait for his friend to say anything more, so he quickly followed the crowd and continued to rush in the direction of Jinfeng Restaurant.

After queuing up for questions, I saw that my friend had run away, and a clever person reacted, according to the original price of rice, wouldn't this be half cheaper?

Thinking about it this way, the queue stopped lining up, and hurriedly ran with the crowd.

As soon as the man ran, the other queues looked at each other: "Did you hear that?" Is it true that the rice in Liu's Grain Shop is still sold at the previous price? ”

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it's better to hurry over and see if it's true, if it's really the original price, the rest of my family's silver. Maybe they can support us until the end of the year. ”

As he spoke, this person didn't care about the others, and just followed the crowd.

The rest of the few looked at each other, followed directly and rushed towards Jinfeng Restaurant.

Even those who had already lined up at the front of the line and began to ask for the amount of food they bought, they lost the food and ran to Jinfeng Restaurant in the middle of a group of people.

The shopkeeper of Chen's grain shop couldn't help but be dumbfounded for a moment when he saw that none of the guests in front of his door were gone, and this scene was staged in front of the large and small grain shops in the capital at the same time.

There was that smart guy, and he also followed the crowd to the vicinity of Jinfeng Restaurant to see.

If someone can stand on the roof of a nearby building at this time and watch the situation on the street, they will definitely see a dense herringbone long queue.

But said that Chen's mother couldn't help swallowing when she looked at the crowded scene of Liu's grain shop. I never thought that there would be so many people buying grain. This is different from what she thought, and she is not prepared enough, what can I do?

Mother Chen thought about it and couldn't help but say to her own young lady Liu Rong.

Liu Rong looked at so many people. There was a slight surprise in his eyes. Fortunately, it was not too unexpected. also thought of countermeasures, and quickly instructed Chen's mother: "You immediately send someone to the Wending Marquis Mansion and the idle manpower of Prince Guo's Mansion." Whether it is a rough mother-in-law or a family member, they all called. There are so many people who come, and there must be a few more grain sales teams. ”

Liu Rong said and paused slightly: "This Liu's grain shop is definitely not big enough, you immediately let people prepare ten tables, let people put them in front of Jinfeng Restaurant and Liu's grain shop, two people in front of each table, one person prepares food, one person maintains support, and the silver that buys grain must be kept in order, and when the people from the Wending Marquis Mansion and the Prince Guo's Mansion come, they will order the task to go down, and if there is any excess, arrange to maintain order together, so as not to cause problems here." ”

Liu Rong quickly said to Chen's mother that if there was a stampede because of this food purchase, it would not be good, it would really turn all good things into bad things.

So he verbally ordered some rules, so that people kept shouting to prevent the people behind from still swarming here, and even Xiao Er and the guards who were in charge of security in Jinfeng Restaurant were also recruited to temporarily take care of the affairs here.

Between speaking, he asked Dong'er to prepare a big sign, which was clearly marked on the sign, and each person was limited to buying half a bucket of rice per day, so as not to let him buy more when he got it, and there would be a quarrel between the staff and the people who bought food.

This is also set in order not to let unwanted people take advantage of opportunism, and for this reason, Liu Rong also made up for the weights and measures of this era.

Don't underestimate half a bucket, converted into a modern measurement method, there are also six catties, enough for a family of three to eat for two days.

Roughly there is Liu Rong, and the people trust Liu Rong and listen to Liu Rong's words, so everything is arranged smoothly, and in general, everything is in order.

This can make those grain shops popular, just looking at the situation is to fight with them, obviously to make them unprofitable, but these people are not in a hurry, one by one gathered together, and thought of a way.

Didn't Liu's grain shop dare to sell grain at such a low price, they just watched Liu Rong sell, but wanted to see how many days Liu Rong could sell, in their minds, no matter how much food there was in Liu's grain shop, it was not enough for so many people to consume, and they also specially found some ruffians to buy grain at Liu's grain store.

But after all, they were disappointed, as soon as those ruffians arrived at the Liu's grain shop, they were automatically arrested by the people sent by Shuntianfu, and they were not given a chance to make trouble at all, and there were also those who accidentally confessed to the people behind them, but they were unlucky to have a few grain shops.

The most angry thing is that they sold the grain to the Marquis of Wending Mansion early, and then found that the grain shop of the officials of the Ministry of War had risen in price, but this time Liu Rong was angry, but he was full of joy, but this was not enough, they wanted the Marquis of Wending Mansion to not be able to hold on, and they wanted the Liu's grain shop to be closed.

Since they can't do things secretly, they should do things on the surface, but these people went to find their own adults, mentioning that the food at home was bought by the Wending Marquis Mansion and there was no food to live, but they wanted their own adults to put pressure on the Liu's grain store to sell them more grain at the current price.

Those adults gritted their teeth when they mentioned Liu Rong, and they would also hear that Liu Rong blocked their financial route, or even cut off their financial route, where did they not make a move.

Without waiting for Liu Rong's Liu's grain shop to last for three days, he began to make an appointment to go directly to the Wending Marquis Mansion to find Liu Rong, and saw that Liu Rong was not in the Wending Marquis Mansion, which would be in the Liu's grain shop, and went to the Liu's grain shop together.

Liu Rong still didn't know what these officials were going to do, which would make people stare at the grain store. By the way, he also slowly explained to the ordinary people who bought food normally that Liu's grain shop had enough food to support them through this disaster, and asked these people to come here every three days to buy food, not to come every day.

This is also to ensure that the hoarded grain can last a few more days, until those grain shops can't hold up and sell them at a price, and now I'm not afraid of other things, I'm afraid that those grain shops will be bad, and use rumors to incite the people, so Liu Rong comes to stare at it every day, and constantly passes some thoughts to these people.

As long as the people's mood can be stabilized, then the grain in Liu's grain shop will definitely last for a month. Other grain shops in the capital saw Liu's grain shops last for a month. I will definitely be uneasy in my heart, and I will be afraid of more grain stockpiles, worried that when the time comes, their food will be spoiled, and Liu's grain shop will be able to hold on. Just follow the price reduction.

Now it's a psychological war.

Just as the people listened to Liu Rong talk about food. I think what Liu Rong said is reasonable. When the impetuous heart gradually stabilized, suddenly a group of military officials arrived in front of Liu's grain store.

Dong'er couldn't help frowning, but Chen's mother stepped forward first. Before Chen's mother could speak, these officials had already said that they were looking for Liu Rong.

Chen's mother and Dong'er glanced at each other, and secretly screamed in their hearts that it was not good, in this state, anyone could see that the person who came was not good. Thinking that Liu Rong had been talking all morning in order to keep the people from grabbing food like crazy, this would be about to rest, and these people would come......

Chen's mother had the intention to delay and let her young lady take a break, but those military officials didn't give them a chance at all, so they directly said loudly that they wanted to buy food, and when they said it, it was hundreds of loads.

The people, who had been calm, panicked for a while, if they really bought so much food, wouldn't the food they needed not be enough.

One by one, they couldn't help but speed up the speed of asking for grain from the guy who sold grain.

Liu Rong frowned, watching the eyes of several officials become unkind, she calmed the hearts of these people, these officials don't help, even if they dare to make trouble, they really don't treat her, the princess of the royal seal, as a princess.

Liu Rong thought about it, and without waiting for Dong'er and Chen's mother to continue to speak, she had already walked out of Jinfeng Restaurant: "Several adults are really in a good mood, and they actually have time to come to this Liu's grain shop as guests." ”

When the head of the military department saw Liu Rong, he instantly raised his head and raised his nose to the sky: "Princess Rong is just right here, our mansion is just short of a lot of food, thinking about buying food, Princess Rong has a lot of food here, what's the matter, let people send a few hundred loads to each of our mansions." ”

Seeing that this official suddenly turned the original hundreds of taels into several times at once, the people panicked even more.

No matter how Liu Rong is, there is no background behind her, although she has been named a princess, but looking at the attitude of these officials, I am afraid that the emperor is not very good to Dr. Xiaoliu, otherwise why would it be so.

This time, they will definitely give food to these officials, and if they do, maybe all the food they want will be gone, and they will have to buy food quickly.

All of a sudden, the voices of the local people who sold grain became louder.

Liu Rong's eyes were cold: "If you want to buy food, you can do it, but you also have to abide by the rules here, Dong'er, take a few adults to line up in front of the grain team, one person and a half bucket of rice, everything is according to the rules." ”

As soon as Liu Rong's words came out, the people were in an uproar, and at the same time, they thought that Dr. Xiaoyanagi must be doing this for them, no matter how Dr. Xiaoliu's identity changed, he was still thinking about their Dr. Xiaoyanagi, and the people's hearts were moved in an instant.

It's just that I was moved and worried about Liu Rong at the same time, worried that Liu Rong would be bullied by these officials for them.

When these military officials heard Liu Rong's words, they actually didn't give them face like this, their faces instantly turned blue, but they laughed after being the most angry: "No one has ever dared to say this to us, you are still the first." ”

Although Liu Rong was named a princess, the emperor's attitude towards the Marquis of Wending's mansion has not been very good, obviously he doesn't care about Liu Rong, he just gives a name.

And this Liu Rong, who only has the name of a princess, is so bold and does not give them face in front of so many people.

Hearing what the official said, Liu Rong was angry: "My lord, I'm really embarrassed, you are the first to dare to speak like this in front of me." ”

"Speaking of which, the adults seem to have forgotten one thing, I am a princess, I am a king, you are a courtier, you see that this princess actually does not salute, do you want to rebel, so you don't look at the royal family in your eyes?" Liu Rong said lightly, she was never sharp, but the premise was that others didn't mess with her.

The faces of several officials changed, and no one expected that Liu Rong would say such things at this time. suddenly remembered their identity, you must know that in the past, Liu Rong never put on the identity of a princess, which is why they are more sure that Liu Rong is not taken seriously.

But if you kneel down at this time, it will be a big shame. This is equivalent to finding trouble instead of being cut.

Several officials hesitated for a while, and the last one was the official who spoke first, and stepped forward quickly, with a fierce appearance as if he was going to do something to Liu Rong: "Joke, what kind of royal family are you." You're just a princess casually sealed by the emperor. I really think I am a royal family, and if you don't give this food today, you have to give it, and you have to give it. ”

Everyone watched the majestic official walk towards Liu Rong, and their hearts followed. Worried that the other party would do something to Liu Rong. It's the teams that buy food. Unconsciously approached Liu Rong a little, this state, as long as this official moves. I'm afraid these people will come forward.

Dong Huwei couldn't help but step forward, but was stopped by Liu Rong, Liu Rong just looked at the official of the military department lightly: "Are you sure?" ”

Being looked at by Liu Rong like this, the official who spoke couldn't help but be nervous, but he still spoke: "Naturally, it's certain." ”

"Good, good." Liu Rong laughed: "Since you are from the Ministry of War, if you dare to speak so disrespectfully to this princess, you should naturally let the Secretary of the Ministry of War, Chen Shangshu, who manages the Ministry of War, call you." ”

"Come on, go to Shangshu Mansion, tell Chen Shangshu about the situation here, and ask Chen Shangshu to come over and comment."

As soon as Liu Rong's words came out, these officials couldn't help laughing, Chen Shangshu and they knew best, that was to hate Liu Rong to grit their teeth, this princess really let the donkey kick her brain, and she didn't invite other helpers, but asked their boss, they would trouble Liu Rong, but it was because their Shangshu didn't like Liu Rong.

They came to see how Liu Rong would be cleaned up by Chen Shangshu in a while.

Thinking like this, the corners of the mouths of several military lords were hooked with mockery.

Liu Rong naturally saw it in her eyes, and the smile on her face was even more flat. Not only that, but also asked Dong'er to ask someone to bring a chair to sit down, and by the way, get her some tea, and sit down to drink tea.

It's just that although he was so instructed, he only ordered his own, completely ignoring a few officials, and deliberately let them stand.

Several officials were even more angry, and they had already figured out how to deal with Liu Rong in their hearts, just waiting for Lord Chen to come over and clean up these people together.

Chen's mother couldn't help but worry, although she was a woman, but because she was in charge of the business of the Wending Marquis Mansion, she naturally knew that Chen Shangshu had a good relationship with the officials in front of her, and she was only worried about her own young lady's accident.

And the people who bought grain were also attracted by Liu Rong's side at the moment, after all, this is related to Liu's grain store, maybe it is related to their future, whether there can be enough food.

All of a sudden, everyone was very concerned about the situation here.

However, Chen Shangshu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, heard his subordinates talk about the fact that several officials of the Ministry of War went to Liu's grain shop to make trouble, and his face turned blue instantly, and when he heard his subordinates say that Liu Rong asked him to deal with this matter, his face became even more ugly.

I have the intention not to participate in this matter, but the matter has already come to her, and she can't go at all, if she doesn't go, when the emperor investigates it, I'm afraid it will be even more troublesome.

Thinking so, Chen Shangshu kept cursing Liu Rong from the bottom of his heart, even so, he still followed his subordinates to the place where Liu's grain shop was.

Just as several military officials were impatient and wanted to do something to Liu Rong, Chen Shangshu finally arrived outside the Jinfeng Restaurant, and when he saw Liu Rong's old god sitting and letting several of his subordinates stand, Chen Shangshu's face became even more ugly.

And several of Chen Shangshu's subordinates couldn't help but show a smug smile on their faces when they saw Chen Shangshu appear, and looked at Liu Rong with mocking eyes, as if mockingly saying, Chen Shangshu is here, you just wait to be cleaned up by Shangshu, even if you are a princess who has been sealed, a princess who has no real power, it's just a casual title, they can rub it as much as they want.

Thinking like this, looking at Chen Shangshu's gaze was even more expectant. And the people naturally felt the subtlety in the middle, and looked at Liu Rong's gaze and couldn't help but be even more worried.

Mother Chen didn't even wait for Dong Huwei to step forward, she was already standing in front of Liu Rong and waiting, and that was the appearance of blocking the front for Liu Rong.

Chen Shangshu looked at Liu Rong's ugly face, but his mood was complicated, thinking of what the emperor told him that Liu Rong had been sealed as the treasurer of the Internal Affairs Office, his mood couldn't help but be even worse.

Don't underestimate this position, the Internal Affairs Office represents the emperor's private treasury, and this position represents Liu Rong being recognized by the emperor as the emperor's person. The attitude of these officials towards Liu Rong should be completely changed and respected, so as not to give them eye medicine in front of the emperor.

It's just that the emperor asked to hide this matter, so he can't tell others about it yet.

Thinking in his heart, Chen Shangshu walked quickly to Liu Rong.

Several military officials looked at Chen Shangshu's obviously quickened pace, the expression on their faces was already extremely proud, looking at Liu Rong's gaze, obviously waiting for Liu Rong to be unlucky.

It's just that a few eyes froze, and a smug smile froze on their faces.

What did they see, their Lord Shangshu actually saluted Liu Rong. Instead of making trouble with Liu Rong. Some people even start to rub their eyes, feeling that they are hallucinating, but everything is still there after rubbing.

Not only that, Lord Shang Shu also spoke to Liu Rong very gently. When Liu Rong talked about what they had done before. He even scolded them directly. not only scolded them, but also asked them to kneel down to Liu Rong and admit their mistakes.

God, is this a change of sky? It's still Lord Chen who is possessed by something, otherwise how could this be.

One by one, the officials of the Ministry of War wanted to say something to Lord Chen, but Chen Shangshu didn't give a few people a chance to speak at all, and directly told them to admit their mistakes immediately, and then leave here immediately.

Liu Rong looked at Chen Shangshu lightly: "Chen Shangshu is really tolerant, these officials are not even sympathetic to the people, and they still grab food with the people, if this is the case, forget it, in case someone will follow the same example in the future, saying that these officials are learning, your subordinates, and then call the emperor Zhilu Dao......"

Liu Rong didn't finish her words, and broke off when she said this, but she asked Dong'er to go to the tea again, and still didn't mean to let Chen Shangshu sit down, and that looked like a subordinate to Chen Shangshu.

Everyone thinks that Chen Shangshu is about to break out, that is, a few officials who have been scolded by Chen Shangshu, and they will also feel that Chen Shangshu will not endure it anymore, and feel that it was just to give Liu Rong face, and this face is also to give the emperor the title of princess face, not to do excessive things on the bright side, and plan to settle accounts in the future.

But they miscalculated again.

After listening to Liu Rong's words, Chen Shangshu was silent for a while, and then he actually spoke: "What Princess Rong said is that a few of you, if you don't go back to the military department immediately and receive your own punishment, everyone has thirty boards, and you have even forgotten such a thing as compassion for the people, so it is difficult that you don't even want to wear a flower feather." ”

The officials still wanted to speak, but Chen Shangshu was directly angry: "If you don't go yet, do you dislike that the punishment is too small, and you want to double it." ”

When several officials heard what Chen Shangshu said, they were frightened this time, because they could feel that Chen Shangshu was really angry, but this made these officials feel aggrieved, they would find trouble with Liu Rong, the most important reason was to curry favor with Chen Shangshu, but Chen Shangshu actually treated them like this......

The faces of several officials changed slightly, but in their hearts, they were centrifuged by Chen Shangshu.

In this way, without saying anything, he directly accepted the guilt, and a group of people turned around and left. It can be said that he came with high spirits and walked away.

Even the situation among the onlookers took such a sharp turn for the worse, and they were all dumbfounded.

But he said that Chen Shangshu looked at the backs of his subordinates, not to mention how uncomfortable and aggrieved he was, but he couldn't say it if he was so uncomfortable, and if he really knew the reason for doing so, the emperor might find him trouble.

Thinking about it like this, he hated Liu Rong even more, after all, he used this strength to deal with him, which caused him to suffer serious internal injuries, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

I have to say that Liu Rong is very powerful, such a thing is not dealt with by others, but directly dealt with by Chen Shangshu, which not only solves it, but also makes a group of people even more shocked by Liu Rong's patience.

The most important thing is that everyone can see that Chen Shangshu has scruples about Liu Rong, and even his own people are forced to clean up in person, and they don't dare to do anything one by one.

It's just that Chen Shangshu has gone through this incident and it's over, the people who followed him before either followed others or went against him. This also caused Chen Shangshu to be cleaned up by his opponent not long after he jumped in the imperial court.

Of course, this is all an afterthought, when everyone knows that Chen Shangshu is so unlucky because he framed Liu Rong, they are all shocked by Liu Rong's methods, but no one dares to do anything to Liu Rong casually.

But he said that later the lord of Yongcheng County knew about this matter, and he admired Liu Rong in various ways, so he only pulled Liu Rong and asked Liu Rong to teach her how to clean up these unpleasant people like this.

However, although the danger of this bright side has passed, after all, this suppression of food has affected the interests of many people, so the overall turmoil has not passed, but everyone chose not to face Liu Rong openly, and changed to another way, forming an alliance to resist Liu Rong together.

The guild was gathering in a room to discuss how to deal with the Liu's grain shop. (To be continued......)
