Yang Yu chewed corn and said: "I just heard Lao Feng say that this year's bumper harvest is a bumper harvest, and the price of grain has fallen sharply, less than half of previous years. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info You go and inquire first, if that's really the case, we'll take it. Go back and discuss with Mi Feng, and raise the price of grain a little higher, I mean at least it can't be lower than eighty percent of previous years, you decide. ”

Wang Dazheng said strangely: "What is that for, then aren't we doing a loss-making business?" ”

Yang Yu said: "Are you a pig brain!?" With food prices falling so low, who wants to grow food next year? Liaozhou is so remote, the caravans are all valuable, how can anyone come to sell grain, our food must be self-sufficient. Therefore, in the year of harvest, we have to raise the price of grain, so that the people are willing to farm. The grain from this harvest is stored, and in case of a disaster or difficulty, it will be released at that time. ”

"Okay, although it's a little painful, but I think it makes sense, listen to you, just go back."

So Yangcheng, which had just been calm for two days, became lively again, attracting heated discussions among the people, caravans, and merchants.

The first thing is that the Rashi Mansion sent a large number of officers to search for and arrest those who violated the law and discipline. On the first day, the first person to be arrested turned out to be An Ye, who was known as Lord Rashi's sworn brother! I don't know if it was intentional or coincidental, after the messenger arrested Feng Xi'an, the route back to Yamen almost circled Yangcheng, Yangcheng suddenly exploded, and everyone rushed to tell each other.

The rest of the city snake stove rats smelled the smell of danger, and they all regained their arrogance and hibernated. I don't know that the servants know all about the hiding places of these people, and they can find one of them. So the ruffians and hooligans have been arrested, as for the occasional fierce resistance, hehe, these errand soldiers are all soldiers who have fought with Lord Rashi in the south and north, are you still afraid of these people? Two of them were killed on the spot, and the others no longer dared to have illusions, and tremblingly prayed that the messengers would not come to them.

However, there are various reasons for these servants to arrest people, and it is inevitable that people can avoid them. Some people were found by the servants and said carefully: "Ladies and gentlemen, I didn't do anything, at most, I was watching a lot of excitement at the time, you can't arrest me for no reason, right?" ”

The messenger said expressionlessly: "You littered the confetti peels everywhere, and you returned to the Shi Ling, take it away!" ”

"Wait, wait, I don't know a word, I haven't seen a book, what kind of paper did I lose?"

"What about spitting? Don't say you haven't vomited, that's also a violation of the history order, take it away! Then the chain was put on.

The arrested person wants to cry without tears, the hooligans are not terrible, but the hooligans who are officials are terrible!

The second thing is that the Rashi Mansion posted an announcement and made people go to the streets to publicize and buy grain at a high price!

If the first thing that benefited was the businessmen, and the ordinary people were just watching the excitement, then this matter was closely related to the people, and it made people happy. I have never heard of the government levying grain, but who has ever heard of the government buying grain? And the price is so much higher than what is on the market, is it true?

Some of the people tried to push a small cart of grain, and sure enough, the warehouse in the Rashi Mansion was exchanged for white silver, and the people who exchanged food were smiling, although the silver could not be used to exchange things with the people of the tribe, but they could buy things with caravan merchants! Hurry home and push the grain again.

In the afternoon, there was already a long queue at the grain collection office of the Thorn Mansion, Yang Yu saw this, and hurriedly sent more people, and made people keep shouting loudly, announcing that the acquisition was not capped, and it was open to collect, please don't worry.

Looking at the joyful smiles on the faces of the businessmen and the common people, Yang Yu was also very happy. Some time ago, he was busy with diplomacy and warfare, and he neglected to manage Yangcheng's affairs, which led to a lot of problems in Yangcheng in the process of rapid expansion.

However, Yang Yu also secretly woke up to himself, and he must not repeat the mistakes of the past in the future, both hands must be grasped outside and inside, and both hands must be hard.

However, a few days later, when I looked at the warehouses of grain, I was still a little confused...... That's too much, right? The people are so great, the government doesn't have to do much, as long as they give them a good production environment, they can create great wealth. Of course, the fertility of the land in Liaozhou, the increase in the population of Yangcheng, the improvement of agricultural tools, the improvement of planting methods, and the introduction of corn are all conducive to the bumper grain harvest.

Also enlightened are Zhang Junhai and Wang Dazheng, Zhang Junhai said: "So much food, even if you send some to Tuoba Hongwei, there are too many left, when can we finish eating?" ”

Wang Dazheng muttered: "It's a loss, it's a loss, if you save it for two years, it's all rotten." ”

Yang Yu gritted his teeth and stomped his feet: "It doesn't matter, let's take some of the grain out and make good wine!" ”

Yang Yu came to this time and space and found that the wine here is all low-alcohol wine, and people at that time had not mastered the distillation technology, so they couldn't make high-grade spirits, I don't know if this is the reason, my alcohol consumption is much larger than before, it stands to reason that this body is the original Yang Yu's, I don't know what the reason is.

Yang Yu actually wanted to get some high-grade wine for a long time, and it is estimated that it will definitely sell well, but as soon as he crossed, he was a miserable little gangster, and then he simply became a prisoner, and then he couldn't help but get involved in the torrent of history.

As soon as it was said that the wine was brewed, Zhang Junhai and Wang Dazheng became interested and took vigorous action. First I found someone to brew the grain, and then I found a blacksmith to customize the things for distillation. The blacksmith saw that it was something that Lord Rashi wanted, and hurriedly made it out overnight according to Yang Yu's request.

The next day, Yang Yu instructed people to assemble the things that the blacksmith had beaten, which was actually a set of distillation equipment, with a large cauldron below for wine and a condenser on top. When Zhang Junhai broke his hand during the installation, he couldn't take care of it, and he was anxious to help complete the installation. Zhang Junhai and Wang Dazheng couldn't wait for the grain to make wine and try again, and brought a lot of original wine to urge Yang Yu to try it.

Yang Yu poured the wine into the cauldron, checked the equipment again, wrapped the joints in wet noodles, and then lit the fire. Soon, the tube connected to the condenser was ticking and dripping.

After receiving a small bowl, Zhang Junhai couldn't wait to pick it up and taste it. Yang Yu asked proudly, "How is it?" Isn't it enjoyable? ”

Zhang Junhai smacked his lips, frowned and said, "The taste is better than before, but it's not as mysterious as you say." ”

"Impossible." Yang Yu took it and tasted it, it was really, far from reaching the height of the wine, what was the problem? Ah, yes, the boiling degree of alcohol is lower than that of water, and it must be that I heated it directly with fire and the temperature was too high, and the water and wine evaporated together.

Yang Yu hurriedly asked the blacksmith to make another large flat-bottomed container, put it between the cauldron and the condenser, and add water to the original cauldron. In this way, the wine is no longer heated with fire, but with water vapor, and the temperature drops.

Sure enough, this time I tried again, and it didn't take long for the conduit to drip wine again, and the aroma of wine overflowed, and the smell of it made people intoxicated.

The three of them were dancing excitedly, drooling, Mi Feng pushed the door in, and as soon as he came in, he covered his nose and said, "What a big wine, what kind of wine is this?" However, Mi Feng was not interested in wine, and continued without waiting for Yang Yu to answer: "My lord, Xianbei sent a messenger to ransom the prisoners with silver, what do you think?" ”

When Yang Yu heard it, haha, business has come to the door!
