In the next few days, Gao Yang's hanging heart finally settled down a little.

Acquaintances in the palace sent a message to themselves, saying that the father was in a good mood and was not very busy dealing with state affairs, and the disaster relief matters were handed over to the ministers, and they stayed in the Yang family's palace during this time......

And Qin Shou is always paying attention to his business.

In his previous life, he had taken a bath in the "Shanghai Sea" and knew too well what reality was!

People are not as good as ghosts without money, and soup without salt is not as good as water.

So, money is a good thing!

In the morning, the third trip of food had already been sent, and he thought that he could send it again, and when he made a lot of money, he stopped.

Something surprising to him happened.

In the imperial city, some people began to spread the news of grassland locust plagues, rat infestations, and the catastrophic floods of the Yellow River.

It was boiling for a while.

It shouldn't be!

It's just the end of the month, and the news shouldn't have reached the capital so early!

Father-in-law revealed?

That was his first reaction.

But then he shook his head, the relationship between himself and his father-in-law is so iron, it is impossible for his father-in-law to pit himself?

Soon, he was relieved after taking a circle along Chang'an City!

A letter from the imperial court's Hongling envoy.

Moreover, the imperial court has begun to allocate a large amount of grain and grass to the grassland, and at the same time crack down on high-priced grain merchants.

Qin Shou couldn't help but scold himself, what a good person his father-in-law is, he actually doubted his father-in-law!

He couldn't help but sigh a pity!

The impact of bulk grain means that the business profits of cattle and sheep on the grassland have fallen sharply.

This business is over!

It's just that what makes Qin Shou a little angry is that the imperial court has also adopted the method of public bidding for procurement?

Nima!

Why is it that no one calls royalties to themselves?

The point is that once the imperial court adopts this method, it will be terrible!

The butterfly inadvertently flapped its wings, and this history has changed!

The Datang cultural relics unearthed in the future, wouldn't you see the words "open bidding.......

......

Let's talk about the financing of food for disaster relief.

Originally, if there was a huge disaster such as the grassland locust plague and the Yellow River, food should have become a strange commodity!

Grain merchants can also take this opportunity to make a lot of money!

But now the imperial court suddenly wants to hold a public bidding, which makes all the grain merchants and rich people angry.

They really wanted to transport grain to the grassland themselves, but the army of the imperial court fought against high-priced grain on the grassland.

Even if you ship it, you won't make any money!

Among them, the biggest reaction is the grain merchants behind the seven families, because behind them are "five surnames and seven families"

Longxi Li, Zhaojun Li, Boling Cui, Qinghe Cui, Fanyang Lu, Xingyang Zheng, Taiyuan Wang.

These families enjoy high prestige and emperors in the Tang Dynasty, and it can be said that more than 70% of the people in the court are officials and protégés recommended by them.

They are the biggest "grain merchants" in Datang

In the view of the five surnames and seven hopes, the "open bidding" adopted by Li Shimin is to draw the blood of the "five surnames and seven families" to subsidize the grasslands and the banks of the Yellow River.

Naturally, they are unwilling!

Therefore, after the next dynasty, the people of the five surnames and seven families all gathered together.

"What do you say the Li family royal family wants to do? Do you want to break with our nobles? ”

"Break up, does he Li Tang royal family have such courage?"

"It's hard to say, I originally thought that with such a disaster, the Li Tang royal family would inevitably come to us to borrow food, so that the prestige of our scholar clan would inevitably rise again, but now I thought of this method......

"It's really evil, the eldest grandson Wuji said that the emperor got a note, so there are still masters behind His Majesty?"

"Do you think it was the idea of the princess's mansion to the emperor? After all, the purchase of Princess Gaoyang's Mansion ten days ago was the precedent of their first "public bidding"! ”

"How is that possible? You mean Princess Goyang? It's still Fang Yiai, how can that five big and three rough people have this kind of ability, so I think that purchase is just a test of the princess's mansion borrowed by their Li Tang royal family! ”

"That's right, that's the explanation!"

"What's even more infuriating is that this disaster relief originally said that only 600,000 stone is barely enough? But the Li Tang royal family opened their mouths to be millions of stone grain, which is really hateful! ”

"That is, when did the famine have fewer deaths?"

"This is not a small number, without our five surnames and seven families, those so-called big food households are a joke, just rely on them to make up a million stones?!"

"Don't forget, the food is in our hands!"

"Let's see, how does Li Shimin end up in the end?"

“......”

Sometimes it's like this, you think that the flame is high when everyone gathers firewood, but secretly someone wants to remove the firewood.

The deadline for transporting grain is getting closer and closer, but less than 100,000 stone of grain has been purchased.

The imperial court went again and again to invite the grain principals of the "five surnames and seven families" to go.

But they either excused themselves on the grounds that this year's harvest was not good and there was a shortage of grain, or they directly quoted an unusually high price!

And those grain merchants also looked forward to the five surnames and seven horses, and when the news came, they also knew about the disaster in the grassland and the Yellow River, so they naturally preferred to sell the grain at a price rather than sell it to the imperial court.

Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji's face, and the ministers were all white.

At a loss

The eldest grandson Wuji could only bite the bullet and go to see Li Shimin.

After not seeing him for a few days, he found that the Holy One had changed.

Look like a million dollars!

Younger!

It's still Yang's water here to raise people!

......

The eldest grandson Wuji explained the disaster relief situation to Li Shimin in detail.

Li Shimin's eyes couldn't help but widen with anger when he heard this, and an uncontrollable anger appeared in his eyes.

Since he ascended the throne, he has been subject to the "five surnames and seven families" at all times, and the designation of many national policies has even to a large extent consider the ideas of these major families.

But even if they give the "five surnames and seven families" huge privileges, they are still not satisfied?

Now that Datang is in trouble, they actually resist the national policy? Sending this kind of national hardship?

Li Shimin angrily swept all the things on the table to the ground.

The flames of resentment burned his imperial heart.

It can be said that he has been suffering from "five surnames and seven hopes" for a long time!

It's not that he doesn't want to suppress them.

But the "five surnames and seven hopes" are the first of the world's scholars.

It is also a huge community of interests, and the "gate valve aristocracy" has become more and more powerful in the election of officials since the Sui Dynasty, which has made it easier and easier for the children of the family to be officials, and they have controlled too many important positions in the court.

This in turn reacts to the requirements of the life experience of the election officials, and so repeatedly, the forces have long been all over the government and the opposition.

Moreover, they have a lot of wealth in their hands, and the impact on the economy is even greater!

So, easily can't move!

Don't dare to move!

Li Er's eyes made the entire Taiji Hall gloomy.

Long!

The eldest grandson Wuji raised his head and said to Li Shimin, who was in a daze:

"Your Majesty, let me ask you more, did your disaster relief method come from the person who wrote the note?"

Only then did Li Shimin wake up from his sluggishness.

"Note...... !!! to the "

"I almost forgot, I still have a note!"

Li Er's eyes kicked and suddenly remembered that when he came back from drinking in Gaoyang Mansion that night, he took out a note from that guy's arms and came back.

"Is there really a note?" The eldest grandson Wuji was just asking casually, but he didn't expect it to be true!

Li Er found the note that was almost broken and slowly spread it out.

"This ......"

Li Shimin and eldest grandson Wuji glanced at each other.

I only felt a chill from the tail vertebrae rushing straight to the heavenly spirit cover!

The eldest grandson Wuji wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "This thing, you must not reveal it!" ”

......
