Liang Zhongwen is also a good at observing words and feelings, and seeing that the fat man Lu seemed to be very embarrassed, he coughed again, and wanted to erase the sentence he just said: "If General Lu is very difficult, forget it." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Let the official give Wang Lao a ride, then be content, alas! ”

At this time, Wang Yuanshi suddenly said: "Liang Fuyin, your kindness, the old man understands it." If the old man goes to the execution ground one day, he can also remember your kindness! ”

Fat Lu rubbed his fat hands and squeaked, "That...... Liang Fuyin, it's not that the last general won't give you face, it's really ......"

Liang Zhongwen was pondering Wang Yuanshi's words at the moment, and said with a wry smile: "General Lu's difficulties, this official also knows. That's it, that's it, it's the official who is abrupt. In the future, I will invite General Lu to drink, and the official still has official business to deal with, so he will leave. After saying that, he arched his hand, took the master and the servant behind him, and left in a hurry.

Wang Yuanshi, who was in the prisoner car, looked at Liang Zhongwen's back with a complicated expression, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Lu Fatzi breathed a sigh of relief, his principle is that he will never conflict with civilian officials, and he almost had an accident today, I hope this Liang Zhongwen will not hold a grudge, right? Fat Lu was worried in his heart, and he didn't know how big the impact of this incident was.

Annoyed, Lu Chenhuan waved his hand and said, "Let's take it down, and let the soldiers escort it back to Chang'an tomorrow, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

This time, the Wang family was almost wiped out, and except for some young Junxiu who escaped, there was no one who escaped from the net. Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. The news of the collapse of the Wang family had spread from Taiyuan Mansion overnight. The effect of this trick was also shown at the first time. The rest of the small families do not have the strength of the Wang family. Even the Wang family has fallen, where do they dare to secretly obstruct? Hurry up and open the warehouse and put salt, lest after the arrival of the army, there will be no place to cry.

As a result, the price of salt began to plunge wildly, and it took less than three days from the shortage of salt to the saturation of the market. These are the power of the imperial court to send troops. In just three days, the price of salt dropped from the highest 120 yuan per catty to less than 123 yuan. Fortunately, Lu Chengqi had long been on guard against this, and secretly instructed the Hubu Shangshulin Town to start buying salt at a high price to stabilize the price of salt. As soon as the imperial court made a move, it was a big deal. After buying salt in large quantities, the price of salt has been raised to about 25 yuan per catty, which is a relatively reasonable price. This also ensures that the salt merchants can make money and the people can afford to eat salt.

Some things are not just about reducing prices, and often economic crises are triggered in this way. If the goods are not valuable, the things cannot be sold, and the economy will naturally collapse.

The price of salt has fallen, which is very beneficial to the people, to the Dashun court, and to the merchants. First, it ensures that the people have salt to eat and do not make trouble; secondly, the businessman does not lose too much, and can continue to do business; Thirdly, the salt tax was abolished, but there was still a commercial tax, and the soup was basically changed without changing the medicine, but the burden on the merchants was indeed reduced, and the Dashun treasury was also enriched, killing three birds with one stone.

More importantly, Tobe learned from this experience on how to regulate the price of goods. Stabilize prices through spending from the national treasury. When the price of salt is low, it is purchased in large quantities at a high price; When the price of salt is high, it is sold at a low price in large quantities. What merchant can have so much money from the treasury? When compared, it pales in comparison. This trick can not only be used on the price of salt, but also for food prices and other necessities for people's livelihood.

So, under Lu Chengqi's will, Lin Zhenzhong came up with a plan to establish a reserve warehouse. Each state capital must have a warehouse that can store a large amount of grain, salt and other necessities for the people's livelihood, which is managed by the governor and the state pastor of each state capital, and flexibly purchases grain and other daily necessities according to the actual market price. The Supervision Department has the right to enter the warehouse at any time to investigate and count to prevent corruption and misappropriation.

After Lin Zhenzhong handed over the plan to Lu Chengqi for approval, the cabinet implemented it on his behalf. Xu Chongguang, the first assistant to the cabinet, could see at a glance that this was an excellent plan, which could help the victims in the first place, adjust prices, and so on. It is of incomparable importance to national security. The rest of the cabinet ministers, who are not vegetarians, have agreed with this move.

This is what Lu Chengqi wants, and now in the cabinet, although Xu Chongguang is the first assistant, in fact, those cabinet ministers don't seem to listen to him much, but judge according to the quality of a thing. This avoids the emergence of a one-person hall, and can also get a better way to deal with political affairs.

After the cabinet meeting passed, Lu Chengqi issued a holy decree and officially implemented it. The state treasury should pay for the establishment of granaries in each state capital, which must be protected from moisture and mildew, so that the grain can be preserved for three years.

And this is a matter that belongs to the Ministry of Industry. After receiving the holy decree, the newly appointed secretary of the Ministry of Works, Li Jie, naturally did not dare to slack off. Li Jie is not stupid, so he can naturally know the benefits behind this policy. Seeing that Lu Chengqi once again blocked the channel for corrupt officials to stretch out their hands, Li Jie was secretly frightened: "Your Majesty is young, how can you do things without leakage?" ”

In fact, Li Jie didn't know that the so-called Tao is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high. No matter how good the system is, it will inevitably have loopholes. No matter how strict the supervision is, there will be people who will take risks. Corrupt officials cannot be eradicated, only fewer of them.

Li Jie naturally doesn't have to do such a small thing as building a warehouse. Unless it is to repair some royal garden or build some large building, this top civil engineer will do it himself. He's just checking the design of the warehouse.

What Li Jie wants to do now is to make some achievements. The next day, Li Jie went to the palace with the drawings and asked to see Lu Chengqi.

Lu Chengqi also just got up, and it was only a quarter of an hour when he came to the Vertical Arch Palace. It was a bit surprising to hear that Li Jie came to see him so quickly: "Could it be that this Li nerd really came up with a plan so quickly?" ”

The thought in his heart flashed, and Lu Chengqi still admired the efficiency of the ancients. Moving his mouth above and breaking his leg below, Lu Chengqi really felt it. With the respect of his emperor, the words he says are holy decrees, and who is willing to do things without care?

asked the chamberlain to go out to announce Li Jie's audience, and Lu Chengqi was also looking forward to what the warehouse written by Li Jie's pen would look like.

After Li Jie entered the vertical arch hall, he meticulously gave a long salute and greeted Lu Chengqi's living according to the etiquette system. Lu Chengqi also asked back according to the courtesy, and then gave Li Jieqi a seat.

Before Li Jie could sit down, he said impatiently: "Your Majesty's instructions to the Ministry of Industry have already drawn the warehouse drawings, please take a look at them." ”

After that, the inner servant presented it to Lu Chengqi.

Since there was no three-dimensional painting method in this era, it took Lu Chengqi a while to see what this drawing was. Lu Chengqi vaguely remembered the barn he had seen in later generations, pointed to the drawings and asked: "Li Qing, this warehouse is not high, if it encounters resurgence weather, won't the grain be moldy?" ”

Li Jie listened to it and said a little confusedly: "How to raise it?" ”

Lu Chengqi smiled and said, "Li Qing, you only considered the climate in the area of Jingzhao Mansion, but you didn't consider other places!" I have a vast territory, and the actual situation is different everywhere, how can I do it accurately? But if this warehouse is raised with wood underneath, it will definitely be waterproof and moisture-proof. ”

Li Jie understood, it turned out that what the little emperor said was that the temperature and climate were different in different places. Li Jie really didn't think of this aspect, and couldn't help but look at the little emperor with admiration. (To be continued.) )
