Chapter 133: Initial Inflation

Jiang Wei didn't expect Song Cen Yue to want him to accept Xiao Zhuoya, of course he understood what she meant. However, Jiang Wei has no mind in this regard now. He thought about it for a moment and reassured her,

"Let's talk about this matter, now the child in your belly is important, don't think too much."

In the next two days, Jiang Wei basically accompanied Song Cenyue, and after Ruoniang learned that she was pregnant with a child, she also stayed by her side, and her life was comfortable.

After Song Rongyue handed over to her sister, her ability to handle things also showed her talent, and she took care of everything in an orderly manner, which was not weaker than her sister Song Cenyue.

Now that everything is arranged in Liuqiu Island, and Song Rongyue is in charge, my sister Song Cen Yue is watching, and Jiang Wei is more relieved. And the problem of shortage of funds will not be solved in a while, but Chang'an still has many things to do, and strive to return to Liuqiu before Song Cen Yue gives birth to a child.

At this time, it has been nearly a month since I came to Liuqiu, and two months have passed with the time on the road. This time, Jiang Wei only took twenty young men to follow him back to Yunling Village, but under Song Cenyue's persuasion, he finally took Xiao Zhuoya with him.

At this time, in the territory of Datang, the efficiency brought by the textile machine made it begin to spread barbarically, and the silk market was soon saturated, and when Jiang Wei returned to Chang'an, the silk had begun to depreciate, and the inflation problem had begun to take shape.

Many people themselves began to feel uneasy, because many people found that the silk cloth could not be sold, and no one took it to buy things. The court also discovered this situation, and after several days of discussion, there was no countermeasure, and they had never encountered such a situation.

I used to worry about the lack of materials, but I never thought that one day I would feel troubled by too many goods. Not to mention that these ministers have never seen this situation, even His Majesty Li Er can't understand it.

Although they couldn't understand it, they still predicted that if a large amount of linen cloth and silk continued to be produced like this, it would soon cause a large number of people to go bankrupt? When the time comes, the cloth will be worthless? The good thing is that everyone can wear clothes, but what about the disadvantages?

Do people have land at home? It's barely passable. But there are still many people who don't have food to eat. The most serious is still a businessman? Say less, at least more than half of the businessmen will go bankrupt. In Datang? At least two-thirds of the merchants were involved in the cloth business.

Although His Majesty Li Er suppressed commerce, he only wanted commerce to grow within the scope of his control. Don't want to ruin business? After all, the high taxes that come with business? It's still very impressive,

And what happens if business is ruined? Will it first trigger the Great Depression, and after a large number of middle-class businessmen go bankrupt, the first thing is a decline in purchasing power? The flow of goods is directly at a precipitous stagnation. Then there will be a shortage of basic daily necessities? This then leads to an increase in prices.

A series of problems, such as inflation, will play out in this era.

Above these courts, it's not that no one can't see it, and there are many smart people in ancient times. Through deduction, a series of questions were nakedly displayed on the desk of His Majesty Li Er.

One person said that? His Majesty Li Er may take it as speculation, but there are many people who say it? Then the problem is obviously serious.

Don't think that the Great Depression was not much of a problem in ancient times, and many people had land? It would be a big mistake to think that you can't starve to death.

At this time, he was Zhenguan for 12 years? is about to enter the thirteenth year of Zhenguan. After His Majesty Li Er's Juntian system? Many people have the basis for a bite to eat? However, under the policy of encouraging the population to have children, there are no fewer children in the family.

However, there are still many people who have sold their land, and the land is in the hands of the landlord.

As a result, the wives of the peasant households weave cloth at home to increase their income. In the idle farming time, finding a job can also subsidize the family.

After the Great Depression, prices rose one after another, and the people could not afford to buy daily necessities such as oil and salt. The people in the city were even more unlucky, their fields were rented out, and some hired small farmers, and there was not much food in the first place, and everything had to be bought.

After this inflation, the price of everything has risen, and the most serious problem is that many people will lose everything under this disaster. Selling houses and fields becomes selling property, and if you don't sell them, you will starve to death.

Without good policy guidance, the cycle of vicious behavior will continue, leading to national unrest.

Jiang Wei was at the beginning of such an incident, returning to Yunling Village, when there were no more people on the streets, and many shops began to close one after another.

As soon as she returned to Jiang's mansion, Dugu Qianyi ran over with a blushing face,

"Childe, you're back."

Jiang Wei couldn't help but slow down a beat when he saw this beautiful woman, even if he saw too many beauties, surrounded by beauties in the Liuqiu Palace, and enjoyed the treatment of emperors and generals, but when he saw Dugu Qianyi, he still couldn't help but feel amazed by Dugu Qianyi's beautiful appearance.

"What's wrong?"

Dugu Qianyi shook her little head and whispered,

"It's just that I haven't seen my son for a few months, and Qianyi misses my son a little."

Jiang Wei couldn't help coughing and smiled awkwardly,

"Alright, I'm not coming back. You arrange a place for Mrs. Xiao to live. ”

Dugu Qianyi saw that Jiang Wei had brought another woman back, and her eyes were a little resentful. But I still arranged it very obediently.

After the second daughter left, Jiang Wei asked Huzi to take twenty teenagers to guard Jiang's mansion, and those Jianghu rangers had already been disbanded by him, and now all the guards were replaced by young people.

As for Li De and Li Wen, Li De is still responsible for finding out the news, and has set up an intelligence system of about 30 people in Chang'an City.

Li Wen, who was originally in charge of the affairs of the valley and the recruitment of orphans, has now stopped and gone to the cement factory.

When Li Wen and Li De came to Jiang's mansion, it was already around three o'clock in the afternoon, and when they saw Jiang Wei, they missed it for a while. This trip has been for nearly three months, and the two of them are really a little unaccustomed to it, and when they see Jiang Wei coming back, it seems that they have a backbone again.

"Childe."

Jiang Wei looked at the two of them, they were both a lot richer, it seemed that they were living a good life, Li Wen, who was originally black and thin, was now whiter and fatter.

"Childe, you can be regarded as back, you still don't let me stay in the cement factory, there is basically no work there, just go shopping and see, there is nothing to do except eat all day long."

When Li Wen saw Jiang Wei, he began to complain, he was active by nature, let him stay in the cement factory, deal with some order problems all day long, and sit in the office, it really felt awkward.

"You don't know how to enjoy a good life."

Jiang Wei couldn't help but laugh when he heard his complaints.

"I don't have anything to hand over to you for the time being, I just want to know about the current cement plant and the recent situation, which of you two will talk about it first."
