Yang Xin sat on his shoulder, with Shang Fang's sword in one hand and a goose feather fan in the other.

When all the poor people they encountered understood what was happening, they immediately changed their positions and joined his camp, and then under the personal command of Yang Dudu, they blocked the rice shops one by one.

Either open the door and open the business normally according to the previous price, or directly copy it, but those rice shop shopkeepers are not stupid, what other choice can there be in this case, honestly open the door and sell it at the normal price, anyway, they are not unprofitable.

It's just that you earn less.

To say that there is a shortage of food in Guangzhou is pure nonsense.

Rice shops, gentry's warehouses, official warehouses, rice are everywhere, and even the city does import a small amount of rice.

The city will not be short of food.

As long as there is no war in this area, there will be no shortage of food.

Originally, even if there was a great drought during the Chongzhen period in history, there was no real famine in Guangzhou, but after the fall of Guangzhou, people were hungry and cannibalistic, but that was because the Qing army killed and plundered everywhere and caused the farmland to be barren, and the grain from other places could not be transported because of the cut off transportation, and finally starved to the point of openly selling people as grain. But in peacetime, the likelihood of famine is slim to none, and even if the area under rice cultivation is reduced due to mulberry and silkworm cultivation, the well-developed commercial network and easy access to water make it easy to replenish the area.

Moreover, the cultivation of sweet potatoes and corn in Liangguang has also begun.

In peacetime, there is a shortage of food here?

That's just a hoarding by profiteers.

And it's easy to stabilize prices......

"It's called the official guide price."

Yang Dudu said to a rice shop shopkeeper with a pleasant face.

"Dudu, the small one will lose money if it is sold like this!"

The latter wailed.

"Go in and carry it!"

Yang Dudu simply took Shang Fang's sword and pointed it inside.

Then the paupers rushed in with cheers, and the shopkeeper stepped forward in horror to block it, but he was suddenly swept down, and in the blink of an eye several big feet stepped on it, one of which was stepping on his face, and he slid to the side, and he could see the distortion of the shopkeeper's face, and the brocade guard next to him still had a footprint on his face when he lifted him up, and stood there crying like pear blossoms with rain.

Uh, chrysanthemums with rain.

"So now you can accept this official guide price?"

Yang Dudu continued to say with a pleasant face.

"It's a big deal to do a small business!"

The shopkeeper said through gritted teeth.

Obviously, he still has some backbone, or maybe he is dizzy.

"Whose family is he?"

Yang Xin asked.

"Back to the capital, this is the Huang family's rice shop, their master is the Huang Xiang eunuch of Shunde, I heard that he was originally an official who washed horses in the capital."

A pauper said.

"What the hell is the official who washes the horse? Uh, a dignified prince from the fifth grade washes horses, and it is ridiculous for you to be said to be an official who washes horses, and people are just a little lower than your prefect, Huang Shijun, I almost forgot this guy, his old friend Zuo Guangdou is still in prison, he is very decisive. Originally, I thought about letting him live in the Imperial Prison for a few days, but I didn't expect to run away in a blink of an eye, Yang Huan, go back and ask Deputy Envoy Xu to write a confession, just say that Huang Shijun's family is a bandit, what is this guy called? ”

Yang Dudu said.

"Back to the capital, his name is Huang Liangxian."

Someone shouted from behind.

"Then him, first arrest him and take him back for strict interrogation, put a stick on him, let him confess, go back and take him to Huang Shijun to arrest Lao Huang, and let Lao Huang pay 20,000 stone meters of bail, he is also an old acquaintance in the capital, just 20,000 stones, otherwise he will go to reunite with Zuo Guangdou, and dare to threaten not to do business, and the governor of Pontus will let you have no need to do business in the future."

Yang Dudu said.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva, just open your eyes!"

The yellow shopkeeper looked up to the sky and mourned.

It is estimated that this is the kind of legendary loyal servant and slave or something, and I have to say that this kind of person is also very sad, but maybe there will be literati who praise his great deeds.

It is said that literati like this kind of good slave, and it is best to be a slave for a hundred years and be resolute and unwavering.

As for the grain merchants in Guangzhou, it is indeed possible to confront them in this way.

However, Yang Xin is not worried about this problem.

These grain merchants are not stupid, this area is the largest market in Guangzhou, where can they be transported to sell if they don't sell here? Where else is there an industrial and commercial city with a population of one million, just like Guangzhou depends on their rice, they also rely on the Guangzhou market, without this market their rice can only rot, this is not with skin, what is sold to Guangzhou is without skin. What's more, those merchant ships will come next, these must be carrying rice, and the fishery production on Yang Xin's side is skyrocketing, saying that in a place like the Pearl River Estuary, before the barbaric destruction of modern fishery, the trawling and harvesting can make people crazy......

In fact, it is.

The Tan people and the Lu Ting people all bowed down to this thing.

After all, the scene of boatloads of fish piling up on the dock like a mountain is really like a dream for these destitute people who can only eat clams.

And these sea fish that cannot be digested locally in Macao are all made into cheap canned food and sent directly to Guangzhou, where the transportation conditions are too convenient, and the Pearl River estuary is directly pushed under the city of Guangzhou as soon as the tide rises, and basically it does not take 24 hours to enter the tide. In fact, at this time, some people began to sell canned food to Guangzhou, but because the cost of the clay pot itself is not low, there is no advantage in price, and those canned food with too many chili peppers do not meet the local taste.

Next, Yang Xin is rolling out jar recycling and taste improvements, such as increasing the amount of sugar used, which is even less valuable in this place anyway, and is almost as good as rice.

This is not an exaggeration.

In fact, at this time, Guangzhou is the world's largest sugar exporter, and the second largest is estimated to be Xu Wen next door.

There is no shortage of sugar in this place.

In short, Yang Xin had sufficient means to ensure the food supply in Guangzhou.

Just when Yang Xin walked to the door of the political envoy in the cheers of the poor like an old immortal in the stars, Wu Zhongwei and a group of civil officials finally appeared.

"Yang Dudu, you are so majestic!"

Wu Zhongwei shouted with a calm face.

"Huh, isn't this the history of the king?"

Yang Xin looked at Wang Zunde beside him and said.

The latter smiled awkwardly.

"Governor Yang, as the right governor of the Houjun Governor's Mansion, not only blatantly violated the sedan chair, but also openly transgressed the sixteenth sedan chair, does Governor Yang have a disobedient heart?"

Wu Zhongwei shouted.

"What do you mean by that?"

Yang Xin asked Yang Huan.

"Back to my uncle, military attachés in the imperial court system are not allowed to ride in a sedan chair without permission, and civil officials can take a sedan chair up to four times, but my uncle is not a sedan chair, nor is it a shoulder, just a Taishi chair, no matter how many people carry it, it is a Taishi chair that is taken casually. The nephew saw that his uncle was working hard for the country, and he was physically and mentally exhausted, so he ordered someone to carry this Taishi chair to send his uncle to Guangzhou. ”

Yang Huan said righteously.

"Pay attention to the impact in the future, let's keep a low profile!"

Yang Dudu said.

"Does Governor Yang take this Guangzhou official for a fool?"

Wu Zhongwei sneered.

Yang Xin looked at him speechlessly.

"Who is this old thing?"

He asked.

"The old man Guangdong Cheng announced the political envoy Si Zuobu and the political envoy Wu Zhongwei."

Wu Zhongwei replied proudly.

Yang Dudu stretched his hand to the side, and his nephew opened a small box with understanding, and then took out a few pieces of paper from it, and Yang Dudu took it and looked at it......

"According to the confession of Xu Congke, the former acting director of the Guangdong Provincial Envoy Department, Wu Zhongwei, the political envoy of Guangdong Zuobu, colluded with the Japanese businessmen Li Dan, Yan Siqi and others to secretly communicate with the Japanese chieftain Tokugawa Xiuzhong, and wanted to make the Japanese army go south as an internal response and capture Guangdong as the king of Nanyue. Although there were many doubts in his remarks, he could not be fully trusted, but the stakes were too great to be ignored, so he first arrested and waited for the Holy Decree, and when someone came, he handcuffed Wu Buzheng and sent him to a temporary prison in Macao to wait for the Holy Decree. ”

Yang Xin said solemnly.

As soon as Yang Huan beckoned, several brocade guards immediately stepped forward.

"Yang Dudu ......"

Wang Zunde shouted righteously.

"Wang Yushi, do you have any opinions?"

Yang Dudu said.

Wang Yushi was instantly deflated.

"That, that, Wu Bu's political envoy has contracted the epidemic, and I'm afraid I can't stand the pain of prison."

He sneered.

"This is easy, Yang doesn't want him to die in prison, just to prevent accidents, let him wait for the holy decree in prison, since he is sick, let his family prepare 20,000 taels of bail, as long as the bail is paid, there is no need to go to prison, you can wait for the holy decree at home, but you can't escape, as for any objections you have, speak out boldly, rest assured, our Jinyiwei is the most reasonable."

Yang Xin said with a smile.

Several of the other officials kept their heads down and shut up.

This traitor will overstep the system, just pretend that you don't see anything.

Although Yang Xin will definitely not be able to accuse them of being convicted of If you don't pay the bail for redemption in this month, I am afraid that you will not be able to survive the prison with the bodies and bones of these big people, and if the capital drags on for more than a month, you will be slaughtered in prison.

The officers are familiar with the basic operations in prison.

What's more, the prisons in Macao may not last for a few days in the summer.

Unless you pay bail.

For the sake of a battle of will, it is not worth losing tens of thousands of taels at all.

"Haha, this is the princess of Gongon!"

Yang Xin smiled arrogantly.

The officials continued to pretend they hadn't heard.

As for the political envoy Wu Bu who had been handcuffed at this time, he also looked at these guys with the same disappointment and sadness, and in his gaze, the officials, including Li Shuyuan, lowered their heads even lower.

"Let's go!"

Yang Xin said proudly.

Then his sixteen shoulders were raised, no, it should be sixteen to carry the Taishi chair, and walked straight towards the princes of Gongon, who silently retreated, standing in front of the door of the political envoy, watching his team walk proudly, and then there seemed to be an endless torrent of poor people.
