Chapter 402: Grain

readx;

Chen Yuan's face changed slightly: "This, it may be the reason why a large area of the southern region suffered from the locust plague." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ouyang Xiu sighed: "Hey, looking at those people on the street, I feel very uncomfortable!" This is because our officials have not done a good job, and we cannot ensure the safety of the people. ”

He said it very sincerely, Chen Yuan, who heard this, was very ashamed, and the rise in grain prices could be said to be a powerful promoter! Food is needed to fight a war, just like this support for Li Shibin, the emperor gave 200,000 yuan to buy supplies, of which 80,000 yuan was dedicated to buying food.

He sold it at the market price when Li Shibin paid the money, but the price at which Chen Yuan collected the grain was very low! That's how business is done, how is the emperor? What about the old man? I will do what I need to do for you, but I will never be soft when it is time to make your money.

He used a large amount of money to hoard grain, even the merchants who cooperated with him did not know, and Chen Yuan himself did not think that this action and the locust plague would cause such consequences before collecting the grain.

The people who fled the famine in the Great Song Dynasty were relatively good, at least there were some good people like Chen Yuan or Fan Zhongyan in every place who gave porridge and rice, and the proportion of deaths was not very high.

But the Liao State and the Party are different, at this time, the Great Song Dynasty is the economic center of the surrounding area, the Great Song Dynasty has a cold, and the Liao State and the Party have to cough. The Liao State is now facing a two-front war, and the high price of food has seriously affected the Liao [***] team, and the people's lives have also fallen into extreme hardship.

Li Yuanhao is even more miserable, his economy has been riddled with holes by Chen Yuan, the news from the front line, now almost every day thousands of party members flee to the Great Song Dynasty, although Li Yuanhao's 200,000 troops are stationed at the border, they still can't stop these people's brave footsteps.

For the current party members, staying in the party will definitely not be able to survive, if some are lucky enough to escape to the Song Dynasty, maybe there is a glimmer of life!

This is also one of the reasons why Chen Yuan saw that hungry people were everywhere, and still closed the goods store full of grain tightly.

No matter how difficult it is in the Great Song Dynasty, but eighty percent of the refugees can survive until the autumn harvest, after the autumn harvest, when the party's money is almost sucked by themselves, and then the road in Mongolia is broken, it is estimated that Li Yuanhao will have no choice at all!

"Lord Ouyang, don't worry, I want to come and wait until the new grain comes down, everything will be fine." When Chen Yuan said this, he seemed a little lacking in confidence.

Ouyang Xiu nodded: "Shimei, if you still have food, can you allocate me some more?" These days, I helped Lord Fan to abbot Yizhuang, and I only knew that I knew that I didn't look at the porridge that could show a shadow, but the grain was flowing out like flowing water, and the little grain raised by Lord Fan had bottomed out. Lord Han Qi has brought a batch of grain from Shandong, but it has not yet arrived, so I will return it to you when it arrives. ”

Chen Yuan smiled: "What are you talking about?" It is also used for alms in my hands, and I will have some of them carry for you now. ”

Ouyang Xiu thanked him and said, "That's great, you've done a great favor!" ”

There was a guest outside in the room, and it seemed that he knew that it was Ouyang Xiu who was going to invite him tonight, and Chen Yuan didn't say anything more, and got up to say goodbye: "Brother Ouyang, that's it, I'll leave first." ”

Ouyang Xiu didn't keep either, and after thanking him again, Chen Yuan walked out of the door of the guest room.

The food is ready-made, just pull two carts over. Can't pull too much, Ouyang Xiu just hasn't done a deal, he's definitely not a stupid person. If he pulls out half of the grain from the goods store at once, some of the refugees will have to eat, and it is estimated that they will have to walk around if they can't finish eating.

He didn't think about this consequence when he hoarded food, and now how many families are broken because of the price of food? How many people on the street sell their sons and daughters? If you let people know that you have a share of the credit for this matter, you will die!

Chen Yuan is not the kind of person who dares to take any responsibility.

The fleet is also ready-made, and Han Qi's fleet is now a bit large, with a total of more than 50 large vehicles, which is also one of the best fleets in Bianjing.

Chen Yuan is a businessman in the 21st century, so he naturally knows how to make the most money in business. When Li Yuanhao is settled, there will be Chen Yuan's shops in every city of the party!

At that time, he can easily establish a complete sales network, so that the money will come quickly. He could sell his own goods, he had his own fleet on the road, his own ship at sea, and when he entered the industry, no one could compare to him at a lower price!

Even if everyone's production cost is the same, Chen Yuan can make less money in the transportation link and can also earn less in the sales link. After defeating the monopoly of other firms, he can dominate an industry, and at that time he sets the price.

This convoy is intended to be used by myself in the future.

Thinking of the boat, Chen Yuan suddenly remembered Huyan Ruizhu's letter. Busy finding a room for each person, open the envelope and see.

Huyan Ruizhu is not bad now, this letter was written to herself in Guangzhou. Huyan Ruizhu said that in just half a year, the captain of the ship has become the maritime hegemon in the South China Seas.

The sea shark who had fought with them was subdued by Hu Yanping, and took his two ships into the "captain" flag, and now they have a total of twelve big ships, and the other pirates have given them some face.

She now has her own ship, and there are more than 500 pirates on board, all under her command.

Now only the mysterious pirates in the Dadonghai area they haven't seen yet, these pirates have recently robbed the merchant ships of the Song Dynasty very strongly, and the means are quite cruel, Hu Yanping has decided to go to the Dadonghai where to cruise, once they find the traces of these mysterious people, immediately fight with them!

Finally, there are some lovesick feelings, Huyan Ruizhu said, the sea is actually good, there is everything on land, but there is no royal law. If Chen Yuan can't get along one day, she can take him to the ship and let him be the captain.

Chen Yuan smiled when he saw it, if he had the opportunity, he would definitely go to the sea to have a look. But not now, the current Chen Yuan has a very grand blueprint that I hope to draw in the Great Song Dynasty!

Now, he still has to work hard to defeat Li Yuanhao.

Han Qi pulled two carts of grain to Fan Zhongyan's Yizhuang, and Chen Yuan did not stay in the villa for long. Liu Ping was about to set out on an expedition, and in order to ensure Liu Ping's victory, and to make it more convenient for Li Shibin and Jiao Guluo to fight in the future, the intelligence work of the Ministry of Labor in the party must be carried out immediately.

Chai Yang did a good job in the party, but he just helped Chen Yuan do some business and inquire about some news that he could hear. What Chen Yuan needs to know is confidential, which is what Li Yuanhao and Dang Xiang Chaotang are unwilling to say.

This requires more professional spy personnel, are the people Zhanzhao found for himself suitable? Chen Yuan also didn't know what kind of qualities a qualified spy should have, Lu Yijian once did intelligence work, Chen Yuan consulted him on this issue, Lao Lu said, like Chen Yuan is fine, the first must be clever, and the second must be courageous.

Chen Yuan and Zhan Zhao made an appointment tonight, he wants to meet these ninth-rate characters!

More than a hundred people stood in front of Chen Yuan, lined up in an untidy line. There are old and young, and there are a few women in the middle, which makes Chen Yuan very surprised.

He believed that since Zhanzhao sent these people over, there must be a reason for Zhanzhao. He looked at them one by one, but he didn't see any of them. Can these people do it? Since you can't see it, you can only know if you try it.

The best way to test is to get them to go to the party.

After Chen Yuan saw everyone's faces, he walked to the middle and stood side by side with Zhanzhao: "Everyone, this time I asked Lord Zhan to invite you here, because there are some things I want you to help with." I believe that if you can stand here, no one will be a fool. If anyone thinks they are fools, they can leave now, and I will not force them to stay. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the guys immediately asked, "Dare to ask my lord, if we leave here, will we continue to go back to prison, or will we be free?" ”

Chen Yuan's eyes looked over, and he saw that this person was very good-looking, and he belonged to the kind that could make you trust him at a glance: "Why are you in prison?" ”

The man said: "The villain Cai Lu was imprisoned just because he deceived the young lady and wife of the owner and was sued by the owner." If you leave here, you have to go back to prison, and I'd rather not leave. ”

When Chen Yuan heard it, this kid had a fight with himself, and he deceived other people's mothers in Liaoguo, but he could actually do it? What a fellow traveler!

Chen Yuan smiled: "If you leave here, you may just go to prison, but if you stay, you may die, let's talk about it after you think clearly." ”

He said it was serious, because what he needed was someone with guts. Later, these people may encounter intimidation, coercion, and inducement from their opponents. If they don't even have the strength to resist at all, it's better to leave early.

More than a hundred people, not a single one moved. Cai Lu said: "It's okay to lose your surname, but when you return to prison, there will be no more women, so it's better to die." ”

These words obviously resonated with many people here, and there was a burst of unbridled laughter in the crowd.

Chen Yuan was very satisfied with their attitude: "Good, very good. What I can tell you is that what you are about to do is dangerous. But I assure you, as long as you follow me, you will get whatever you want. Money, women, are not an issue. ”

No one answered, and after a long while, a voice said, "My lord, such a good thing, if you want us to do it, I'm afraid we won't have to enjoy it." ”

This voice was very sharp, but I didn't know what he said, but there was a hint of etherealism, so that Chen Yuan couldn't find the direction in which the voice came from.

Chen Yuan nodded: "I have already said it, it is very dangerous." To do it or not to do it, you still have a choice. If you wait for me to tell you about it, you won't have a choice. ”

He wished the voice had said another word so that he could find out who was speaking. But the man seemed to know Chen Yuan's plan, so he didn't say anything more.

These people are all old rivers and lakes, and they were suddenly brought to this place by Zhanzhao, they don't know what to do, but they can't go, so many people have made up their minds and resolutely don't make a bird, just watch what other people do, and just follow along.

This attitude made it impossible for Chen Yuan to proceed next. After he said a few words in a row, no one spoke, so he could only ask Zhan Zhao for help: "Brother Zhan, can you let them speak?" ”

Zhan Zhao nodded slightly, and took a step forward: "Everyone, you are all friends in the rivers and lakes, although you and Zhan Mou are not on the same road, but you can come today, no matter how you came, Zhan Mou has received this favor!" ”

These people's attitude towards Zhanzhao is obviously much more respectful, there is a way that the county official is not as good as the current management, a thief may not be afraid of the county magistrate, dare to go to the political axe building to steal things, but he must be afraid of the police, and he will definitely not step into the police station for half a step.

As soon as Zhan Zhao spoke, a voice rose below: "Zhan Ye, you are too polite!" ”

"Where did Nanxia say? It is a blessing for the villain to be able to serve you! ”

Zhan Zhao didn't want to listen to the compliments, he waved his hand to quiet the crowd: "This time, Lord Chen invited you to come, it is to do a good deed for the country and the people, and it is very dangerous. But after it is done, not only will there be a rich reward, but you may never have to use it again in the future. ”

The update was late, and it dragged on until the early hours of the morning, sorry brothers, it wasn't intentional.
