When Li Zhi left in a hurry, Jiang Qiaoqing immediately came to Wang Xuan's house, only to see Wang Xuan sitting on a chair, wiping the tears on her face expressionlessly, as if those tears did not flow out of her eyes.

"What's going on?"

Jiang Qiaoqing looked at Wang Xuan a little nervously.

After all, Wang Xuan's move is to put death and come back to life, in case Li Zhi can't resist the pressure, then they are very dangerous.

Wang Xuanfeng said lightly: "Don't worry, everything is going very smoothly, much smoother than expected." Speaking of the back, the smile on the corner of her mouth became even stronger.

Jiang Qiaoqing's face was overjoyed, and she said, "You mean, Your Majesty is determined to keep you?" ”

Wang Xuan just smiled and did not answer.

Jiang Qiaoqing looked at her curiously, her eyes were full of uneasiness, when she first met Wang Xuan, Wang Xuan was very well-behaved, studied singing and dancing seriously, practiced until the middle of the night, and listened to her for everything, but after Wang Xuan saw the emperor, it was completely like a different person, she didn't know what Wang Xuan was thinking.

Changan.

If you fly over Chang'an City with a glider at this time, you will see a colorful and charming scenery. I saw that in the streets and alleys, all the people were carrying a bundle of silk silks, either on their heads or with their arms.

"Little brother, cut me a pound of cooked meat."

"Dare to ask uncle, do you want to pay the bill with silk?"

"That's right! Why not? ”

"Uncle, I'm really sorry, the shop has been banning silk payment since yesterday."

"Why is that?"

"Ouch! Uncle, you really can't blame the small shop, don't you know, now everyone uses silk to buy things, it's so expensive that it's easy to say, a few horses count, but our butcher shop, that's a small business, a pound of cooked meat is your piece of cloth, will you agree? But if you don't count it that way, it's useless for the small shop to hold these rags, and it's a lot of losses these days. And uncle, now the silk silk is worthless, you wait and see, it won't be long before you can exchange a piece of cloth for a pound of meat for me. If you want to buy meat, you should buy it with copper coins. ”

"Little brother, I want copper coins, can I afford to go shopping on the street with such a dozen bundles of cloth?"

"Vouchers will do the same!"

"Isn't that different?"

"Then we really can't help it, or you can go to another house to have a look."

"I've already been there, and you're the fifth."

“......！”

————————

"What do you say? How much money do these fish cost? ”

"Big brother, there's no way, everything is expensive now, if I want to sell it so cheaply, I can't even afford a toothbrush."

"But it was quite cheap some time ago!"

"But everything was cheap a few days ago!"

———————-

"Brother Hua, in the past month, our shipments in Chang'an have been halved. Our toothbrushes are actually not expensive, but people buy them with cloth, which is not easy to calculate. Nowadays, people can't buy if they want to, we can't sell if we want to, but it's really hard for us to die. ”

"Then let's reduce production."

"But if we reduce production, then we will have to lay off a lot of people, and now the rest will follow us early in the morning."

“.......！”

"Brother Hua, why don't we also learn from Brother Chubby and go to Jiangnan District to do business."

"It's not that I haven't thought about this, but Brother Xiaoyi's filial piety is about to end, if we go to Jiangnan, in case Brother Xiaoyi comes back to Chang'an, then what should we do?"

"That's the same, then Brother Hua, what are you going to do with us?"

"If you hold on a little longer, you have to wait until Brother Xiaoyi comes back."

Gold Bank.

"Fortunately, the head of Sang Mu had expected to tighten the silk trade and reduce the profits, otherwise, the situation of our gold bank may be worse."

"Alas... It's not that I'm good, but I've been doing business with Engong for a long time, and I still have this vision. Think about it, since the imposition of tariffs, Chang'an's merchants have exchanged for a large number of gold tickets to go south, according to the contract we signed with the Yuan Bank, we also have to send the copper money to the Yuan Bank, now Chang'an still has how many copper coins, but no one knows better than our gold bank, Engong often teaches me, this thing is rare and expensive, and the price of copper money is bound to rise sharply.

Not only that, but now the environment of our businessmen is not good, and there are a lot fewer businessmen who come to the gold bank to borrow money than in the past, and the remaining ones who want to borrow from our gold bank are basically those workshops that are about to close. In addition, the people are now very worried, all of them are shrinking their clothes and dieting, but I am afraid that the most profitable business in the world is to deposit copper coins in our gold bank, if we do not cut interest rates, we may not be able to last a few years. ”

"Mr. Sangmu is right, even now, there are several times more people saving money in the past few months than in previous years, but Mr. Sangmu, let's go on like this, it's not a way."

"I can't help it, this gold shop is not something that everyone can play, but fortunately, Engong will be back soon."

"Well--- what if the proprietor doesn't come back?"

"Then we can close the door now, and it will be a dead end sooner or later."

——————

I remember that when the imperial court had just imposed tariffs, the people of Chang'an were overjoyed, and they all sang the praises of Wu Meiniang, because they didn't want to serve when they came, and secondly, the prices in Chang'an became very cheap. It's a pity that their happy life didn't last long, and now the price has exceeded when Han Yi left, and it continues to rise.

This is because the price drop at the beginning is an abnormal economic fluctuation, the situation is extremely special, because the imperial court suddenly ordered the imposition of tariffs, without warning, resulting in a large number of goods in the hands of merchants, because they are preparing to show their strength, suddenly charge such a high tariff, if you want to sell the goods to other places, it is better to stay in Chang'an to sell, even if it is cheaper, it is more cost-effective, and by the way, you can also cash out.

When the stock was sold, the merchant immediately returned to the normal price, but because the workshop also had to pay taxes, the price naturally increased.

But this is actually secondary, after all, businessmen only adjust prices according to taxes, not the kind of malicious manipulation, now in this situation, they can protect themselves even if it is good, where can they have the ability to manipulate prices, so this price is more reasonable.

However, because the imperial court began to pay wages with silk cloth after acquiring those workshops, these workers once stimulated the economy of Chang'an, they were the main force of new consumption, and now they receive wages of silk cloth, so they can only use silk cloth to the market for consumption, when they began to use a large number of silk cloth, other people and those nobles, as well as official families also began to use silk cloth, copper coins up.

This is the law of bad money driving out good money.

Because the businessmen took away a large amount of copper coins, the already scarce copper coins became more valuable, and they will continue to rise, everyone refused to use copper coins, and they were all put into the gold bank to save, and the reputation of the gold bank even exceeded that of the imperial court, and Han Yi bought and sold so much, and everyone was not afraid that Han Yi would repay the debt.

And Chang'an is the first market in the Tang Dynasty, the urban economy is very developed, if it is only the rural economy, it is actually nothing, but this phenomenon of bad money driving out good money, the blow to the urban economy is very big, when we use a large number of silk cloth, there are too many silk cloth on the market, which directly leads to the depreciation of the silk cloth in the hands of the people, which leads to the depreciation of the silk cloth in the hands of the people, which leads to the original reasonable rise in prices, becomes unreasonable, has been higher than the consumption level of the people, which also affects the farmers, farmers and mulberries, and mulberry depreciation, the farmer was naturally also harmed.

Lee House.

"Zhangren, the head of the Xuanji Dao, the current situation seems to be a little not good!"

Liu Yuanzhen anxiously told Li Yifu and Xuanji Daoist about the situation on the market.

Li Yifu also heard about it, and immediately asked the Xuanji Dao Chief: "Does the Dao Master have a solution?" ”

Xuanji Dao Chang smiled: "Li Zhongshu don't worry, this is a normal phenomenon, throughout the ages, it has been smooth sailing for everyone to change the law, there will always be some twists and turns, but it will soon return to normal." ”

Li Yifu hurriedly asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Xuanji Daoist said with a smile: "Let's just talk about this silk silk, why did the silk suddenly become so worthless, there is only one reason, that is, because the merchants of the two cities and the North Lane began to boycott the silk silk, which caused the silk silk to become worthless." Again, those businessmen are selfish, they will only stare at their own money bags, and will not take care of the overall situation, how can they care about the life and death of the people.

But if these shops are controlled by the imperial court, then everything is decided by the imperial court, and there will be no such problems at all. If the imperial court thinks that a foot of cloth can be sold for a pound of meat and is conducive to the development of the country, then it can do so, because the buyer is the imperial court. Besides, the voucher, because the gold bank is private, they don't have that much ability, they can only issue it according to their own copper coin stock, but if it is the imperial court, this voucher can even be directly used as currency, although it is just a piece of paper, but there is the credibility of the imperial court in it, and when the imperial court nationalizes all these stores in the future, this kind of voucher can be issued, and by the way, the gold bank can be squeezed in. ”

Li Yifu nodded again and again when he heard this, and said, "The words of the Taoist chief are very reasonable!" ”

Xuanji Dao Chang smiled: "Now those merchants do this, it will only make the people hate them even more, in that case, the imperial court can let the merchants close the door in the name of obedience, and the imperial court will take over, then all problems will be solved." Therefore, this situation is now beneficial to Li Zhongshu, and Li Zhongshu does not need to be anxious at all. ”

"Haha, every time Yifu listens to the teachings of the Taoist, there is always a feeling that the Yifu can get acquainted with the Taoist, which is really a blessing for the Yifu!"

Liu Yuanzhen also smiled and nodded.

Xuanji Dao Chang waved his hand and said modestly: "How dare you, how dare you." ”

At this moment, a person suddenly ran in in a hurry and muttered a few words in Li Yifu's ear.

"What? Is this true? ”

"Now this matter has spread in Luoyang."

Li Yifu frowned and paced back and forth in the room.

Xuanji Daoist said curiously: "Li Zhongshu, I don't know what happened?" ”

"Yes———!" As soon as Li Yifu spoke, he suddenly stopped again, and said: "Dao Chief, please forgive me, this matter is very important, Yifu is not clear about the specific situation for the time being, and I will tell Dao Chang after Yifu confirms it." ”

He said to Liu Yuanzhen again: "You go and prepare to buy a car, I will go to Luoyang immediately." ”

Liu Yuanzhen was stunned, and looked at Li Yifu here in astonishment.

Li Yifu paused anxiously and said, "You are still standing here stupidly, why don't you go and prepare." ”

Liu Yuanzhen said: "But father-in-law, if you leave, what will happen to Chang'an?" ”

Li Yifu said: "You don't care about this, go and prepare." That's it, that's it, don't prepare any luggage, just prepare the wagon and dry food, and I'm going to leave today. ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

......

On the same day, Li Yifu took a carriage out of Chang'an City, and he didn't even ask for leave from the three provinces.

But not long after leaving the city, a fast horse came galloping towards him.

"Woo..... Isn't this Li Zhongshu's carriage? Can Li Zhongshu be in the car? ”

Immediately, the man saw Li Yifu's carriage and immediately jumped off the horse.

"Guo Guard? How did you end up here? ”

Li Yifu heard someone call him, and couldn't help but lift the curtain, and when he saw this person, he seemed to feel a little surprised.

"Li Zhongshu is going to Luoyang?"

"Yes! But the queen asked you to invite me? ”

"The queen sent the lowly to come, but not to invite Li Zhongshu, the queen said, if Li Zhongshu wants to go to Luoyang, let the lowly post tell Li Zhongshu, don't go to Luoyang, just stay in Chang'an and handle the government well, and let Yuan She people not act rashly, just do their own things."

Li Yifu was a little puzzled when he heard this, "Guo Huwei, is the matter in Luoyang true?" ”

"I don't know about this humble position, but the queen said that you don't have to worry about Luoyang's affairs for the time being, the queen has her own arrangements." nt
