Wang Lanling summoned people in the morning to talk about the child's disappearance, and asked the vendors and staff in the city to pay attention to this matter.

At noon, I invited Qian Maocai and others to have a meal, and by the way, I sent half a sheep to the two dogs with a keen sense of smell, and each dog was given a leg of mutton.

Wang Lanling felt that he was out of place there, so he transformed a room in the Environmental Sanitation Department into a study, and he could go to work and study at the same time.

If you're at home, you don't want to study.

"My lord, there are a few people outside who want to see you, saying that they are the official caravan of Muzhou."

Guo Yong came over and told Wang Lanling about the outside matter.

When Wang Lanling heard it, he said, "Let Hu Guiqiao be responsible." ”

"Yes." Guo Yong agreed and left the door respectfully.

After more than ten minutes, Hu Guiqiao appeared at the door.

"My lord, the caravan in Muzhou wants to do business with you, my lord."

Wang Lanling put down the books in his hand, looked at the door and said, "Aren't these things about the official market?" What do you want me to do? ”

Hu Guiqiao explained: "They have met with the people of the county order and the official city department, but neither side will buy the cattle and sheep from the Muzhou side. ”

Wang Lanling thought for a while and asked, "Why?" What's wrong with the cattle and sheep in Muzhou? ”

Hu Guiqiao said: "There is no problem with cattle and sheep, mainly because they brought thousands of heads this time, and there are also more than a dozen truckloads of furs and animal bone products, which they hope to exchange for daily necessities such as soap, paper, matches, watches, kerosene lamps, needles and threads, scissors, etc." ”

"I'm not in charge of this, am I?" Wang Lanling was a little embarrassed, "I remember that the imperial court is very strict about this transaction, and they let them do things according to the rules, and it's useless to look for me." ”

After getting married, Wang Lanling basically rarely took care of things, and he was constantly downplaying his activity in the eyes of officials.

But in fact, his influence is constantly precipitating at the bottom and middle and lower levels, and some actions are slowly playing a role.

It's just that from the general direction, Wang Lanling has stopped a lot recently.

Hu Guiqiao hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Didn't you say that you wanted a farm some time ago, my lord?" The cattle and sheep sent by these people are just right. ”

After Wang Lanling heard this, he thought for a few seconds.

"Whether this can be fed or not is a question, and the cattle and sheep on both sides are different."

Having said that, Wang Lanling still said, "Let them in." ”

"Yes!" Hu Guiqiao quickly retreated.

After more than two minutes, Hu Guiqiao appeared at the door with four or five people.

"My lord, this is an official and businessman from Muzhou, Lord Musheng."

Wang Lanling stood up, clasped his hands into fists and said: "Fortunately, in Xia Wang Lanling, I have to avoid suspicion in some recent things, and the transaction should be a matter of the official department, and it is inconvenient for me to participate, so I neglected a few just now." ”

Mu Sheng quickly said: "You're polite, there are many rules, and you should pay attention to it, I know these well, this time I also came to trade for my hometown fathers, I can make a transaction, where would I think about those boring things." ”

Wang Lanling felt that the people in Muzhou were very different from the people in Shanzhou, and those people in Shanzhou could almost be said to be bandits.

"Please sit down, I also know a little bit about these things, this is also a distance from Muzhou, and the caravan will take at least more than a month, you come from afar, I welcome you very much."

Hu Guiqiao grabbed a chair for a few people and put it on the opposite side of the desk, and asked a few people to sit down.

The shepherd sat down, and the rest stood motionless.

Wang Lanling didn't say anything after seeing it, and said directly: "Let's make a long story short, you also know that I am not a businessman, and this time I want to buy some cattle and sheep mainly so that the people in the county can eat meat, and they can have a good body from the generation of dolls, not to make money." ”

Mu Sheng couldn't have imagined that Wang Lanling was thinking about this, it was simply unheard of, he never thought that anyone would consider this!!

"Lord Wang's righteousness! I admire it! ”

Wang Lanling ignored this kind of beautiful words, and continued: "You have also been to other places when you have walked here, and I want to know why other places refuse to buy your things. ”

"If someone is willing to buy your cattle and sheep livestock, you should also understand how convenient it would be to exchange your cattle and sheep items for money earlier, right?"

Mu Sheng sighed and said: "It's not that we don't want to, it's just that many places along the way have pushed the price too low, we sold some cattle and sheep a little bit at the beginning, but the closer we got here, we found that those people pushed the price down much lower than last year's price." ”

Wang Lanling said helplessly: "That's right, it's true, in previous years, it was the price within the official family, and now the people who do business continue to press down on the lowest price, and they still want to continue to suck blood, which naturally makes people unable to live." ”

Mu Sheng looked at Wang Lanling, "Although the county town and the state city are more prosperous, but the cattle and sheep there are all supplied, we continue to go with the cattle and sheep, and the cattle and sheep are tired along the way, plus the cattle and sheep are not easy to manage, I am afraid that it will be more troublesome at that time, so please ask Lord Wang to help us!" ”

"You don't need to be so polite, just call it directly." Wang Lanling nodded, "How many cattle and sheep are you carrying?" ”

Mu Sheng was overjoyed, and Hu Sheng next to him quickly said: "There are still 10,000 heads in his hands!" ”

Wang Lanling looked at the Muzhou man who was talking and said, "Who belong to these cattle and sheep?" ”

Hu Zhong replied: "It was all raised by each family in our Yanhu tribe, and each family contributed some, and it was enough, it was originally more than 20,000 yuan, and I originally thought that I could sell some of it along the way, but I didn't expect that there would be so much left." ”

After Wang Lanling heard this, he thought for two seconds, then raised his head and looked at a few people and said, "Yes, I want it." ”

The shepherd was overjoyed, but soon realized what the problem was.

"Director Wang, this 10,000 head of cattle and sheep is not a small number, and it adds up to 40,000 yuan."

Wang Lanling didn't expect it to be so cheap, he thought that 10,000 cattle and sheep would cost 100,000 yuan.

"It's okay, it's not easy for you."

Hu Guiqiao didn't expect Wang Lanling to spend money so happily, and said anxiously: "My lord! There are more than 10,000 cattle and sheep, and we have no place to raise them here, let alone enough forage and herdsmen to watch those cattle and sheep! Think again! ”

Mu Sheng and the others were shocked in their hearts, and felt that things were a little difficult to handle.

However, Wang Lanling raised his hand, "I have my own measure." ”

Wang Lanling looked at Hu Guiqiao and said indifferently: "You go outside the city to be responsible for trading cattle and sheep with these strong men, since these cattle and sheep are brought together by the people of Muzhou to buy New Year's goods, then naturally they will also be adopted by the families of Heishui County." ”

"Pass on my words, each family can take a cow and sheep back to take care of it, give priority to the young and strong villagers and the people who have served this year, each family can raise a month a month, and can go to the sanitation department to receive a dime forage fee."

Wang Lanling was not short of money, he bought cattle and sheep and scattered them to various households, and then took them back when needed.

Hu Guiqiao didn't expect Wang Lanling to mobilize the masses again, but after thinking about it carefully, this is indeed a way.

"Yes." Although he felt a little helpless, Hu Guiqiao still agreed.

Musheng and the others didn't expect to be able to do this, and if their officials dared to do this, they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to collect a single wool at that time.

Wang Lanling said to a few people: "Everyone, please rest assured, I also understand your difficulties, after registering today, I will give you the money today, and I will not let you go home with money." ”

Mu Sheng quickly said: "Director Wang, the prices in various places are rising sharply at the moment, and this money is becoming less and less money, we want to exchange the money for goods, otherwise this money is useless to us." ”

Wang Lanling showed a surprised expression, "Is that so?" I rarely go shopping, I don't know much about this, and I ask the pastor to help me solve my doubts. ”

Mu Sheng nodded, and said helplessly: "We have a large number of soldiers in Muzhou, and the situation is complicated, after the military salary and reward money were issued this spring, 50,000 or 60,000 yuan of households came out overnight, and the soldiers in the army have thousands of yuan of spare money. ”

"Since the spring, the market in Muzhou has become more and more chaotic, many people's cattle and sheep land have been bought by the people above, the situation is getting more and more chaotic, and there have been several chaos later, and now everyone wants to get things, not money."

The old emperor not only gave money to the officials, but also to the large number of people in the bloated military system everywhere.

The meritorious ones will pay money, the good ones will pay money, and the debts owed in previous years will also be paid off, and everyone inside and outside the army will cheer for the Holy Emperor!

Finally, Wang Lanling finally realized that this economic crisis had quietly broken out a long time ago.

"So, I see, I see." This time, Lord Xiao Wang really understood. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
