ps: Thank you for the tip, the update ticket, or five, the handicapped party expressed greed ~~~

Wang Feng couldn't help but be surprised: "Boss Hu, but what scruples do you have?" ”

Hu Guangyong gritted his teeth and said: "Don't hide it from Commander Wang, now Su Song Taichang belongs to you, and we are all businessmen, paying attention to extending in all directions, and the four seas are businessmen, so we can't cut off contact with Hangzhou, and I ask Commander Wang to be considerate." ”

Wang Feng smiled dumbly and said: "Boss Hu, you think too much, as long as you don't come to Suzhou to sabotage or spy on military secrets for the Qing court, we welcome anyone to come, in my eyes, you are all Chinese, just because of all kinds of difficulties have to deal with the Qing court, don't worry, although don't worry about coming back, I treat you and the local merchants in Suzhou equally, and even if it is inconvenient for you, you can be anonymous or change your face." ”

Hu Guangyong looked jubilant and bowed again: "Hu has thanked Commander Wang on behalf of many colleagues in the Hangzhou business community." ”

"Hurry up!" Wang Feng waved his hand and asked, "How is the shape of Hangzhou?" Can you tell me about it? ”

Hu Guangyong immediately smiled bitterly: "In the past two months, prices in Hangzhou have skyrocketed, especially the price of grain and housing, whether it is bought or rented, one price a day, and the people's grievances are great!" ”

"Oh? Why is that? Wang Feng asked with interest, and even Hong Xuanjiao looked at it incomprehensibly.

"Alas, it's hard to put into words!" Hu Guangyong shook his head: "More than half of the nearly one million people who fled from Suzhou have flowed into Hangzhou. Hangzhou's population was originally less than one million, which is equivalent to doubling, and the pressure can be imagined. Especially these people, who are either rich businessmen or Qing court officials, are all rich masters, eating and drinking are undiminished, and nearly a million people are opening their mouths wide, how can they afford a mere place in Hangzhou? Even though Wang Yide, the governor of Fujian, Huang Zonghan, the governor of Zhejiang, and Wang Youling, the prefect of Hangzhou, raised funds in many ways, Zhejiang and Fujian were also full of bee smoke. The income is limited, and it is difficult to fill the huge shortfall! ”

"Oh~~" Wang Feng nodded in understanding. Before the Taiping Rebellion, the three major cities of Jiangsu and Zhejiang were Suzhou, Nanjing and Hangzhou, and only these three places had weaving bureaus, of which the latter two were not as large as Suzhou. Nowadays, hundreds of thousands of wealthy people from Suzhou have poured into Hangzhou in a short period of time, and the consequence is inevitably hyperinflation.

However, Wang Feng didn't mean to pull a hand, he only had the intention of watching the excitement!

Hong Xuanjiao seemed to have thought of something, glanced at Hu Guangyong vigilantly, took two steps away from Wang Feng, and whispered: "I don't think this Boss Hu is a good thing, we have to be careful that he pulls our grain to Hangzhou to make a fortune!" ”

This is really a wake-up call for people in a dream, Wang Feng suddenly broke out in a cold sweat!

What did Hu Xueyan rely on to make his fortune? The secret is speculation. Tun Jijuqi, if you want to say that the Hangzhou businessmen led by Hu Xueyan don't have this mind, Wang Feng really doesn't believe it. Although it stands to reason that the normal commercial circulation should not be blocked, Wang Feng is not so selfless as to tighten his belts to help outsiders, if he does not interfere, Suzhou and even the entire Susong Taichang will inevitably have soaring prices, and the people are complaining!

In economics, it is not the size of the food deficit that will increase the corresponding increase. Rather, it will rise without limits, such as in 05 years. The logic behind the international grain prices began to rise is that in the next few years, there will be a food shortage of 100,000,000 people in the world, according to the usual idea, 6 billion people will lack such a small amount of food, an increase of a few percent, but the reality is that as of the summer of 08, the international increase in corn and wheat has reached an average of 3.3 times!

Of course, this is related to the stirring up of the international grain and oil predators, but the root of the problem lies in the fact that what is lacking is grain, unlike the fact that industrial products can be dispensed with if the price is high, and people will die if they do not eat grain.

If the government does not intervene or is unable to intervene, it will continue until the more than 10 million people who are short of food will starve to death because they cannot afford to buy food, and then the balance will be restored.

If the development of industry is the road to prosperity and strength, and the stability of agriculture is the foundation of the country, if measures are not taken and the merchants of Hangzhou led by Hu Xueyan are allowed to collect grain too often in Susong, then the local grain price will rise higher and higher, until panic occurs, resulting in an avalanche effect!

There are only more than 40,000 people in the Democratic Alliance, and Su Song has a population of 10 million, and the consequences of the turmoil are unimaginable. At this moment, Wang Feng has already determined that Hu Xueyan is here on behalf of the interests of the Qing court, and it is not surprising to think about it, Hu Xueyan and Wang Youling, the prefect of Hangzhou, are close friends, and the little fantasy about Hu Xueyan in his heart has also melted away in an instant!

"I see, thanks to your reminder!" Wang Feng glanced at Hu Guangyong very unkindly, then walked back, and said with a calm face: "Boss Hu, I sympathize with the difficulties of the people of Hangzhou, but I am powerless to rescue, after all, I, Su Song, have to eat with thousands of mouths, so I welcome you back, but I don't want to see you transport even a grain of Su Song's too often rice, please Boss Hu understand my embarrassment!" ”

"This" Hu Guangyong was dumbfounded!

To tell the truth, he did have the intention of buying a lot, and then spread rumors through guò, speculated the price of grain to the sky, and made him a lot of money, and the merchants in Hangzhou even prepared the silver, just waiting to launch an attack, which was indeed inseparable from the support of the Hangzhou officials, and they were temporarily unable to counterattack militarily, so they could only use economic means to mess up Wang Feng's internal mess first.

For them, this is an opportunity to make quick money, because with the implementation of the policies of Su Song Taichang and the Democratic Alliance, the population will inevitably gradually return, and the high housing prices and food prices will also fall, but before that, there is a time window to make money, and businessmen with a sharp sense of smell will not ignore it.

From the governor, down to the officials and businessmen, including the Su Song Taichang officials who fled to Hangzhou, everyone made suggestions, and repeatedly deliberated, all of them thought that it was feasible, so on the one hand, they raised funds, on the other hand, they blocked the news internally, prevented the local personnel from communicating with Su Song, and smeared the Democratic Alliance led by Wang Feng, and spread all kinds of rumors to maintain the local panic effect. It was originally nine times out of ten, but it turned out to be yellow!

Hu Guangyong looked at Wang Feng carefully, he couldn't be sure if he was aware of his thoughts, or Wang Feng's instinctive protection of food, but his remorseful intestines were blue, this is the end of his mouth, if it wasn't for Hangzhou being described so miserably, it might not have attracted Wang Feng's vigilance, but at this time, he could only try his best to make up for it!

Hu Guangyong arched his hand unwillingly: "Commander Wang, although Hangzhou is temporarily occupied by the Qing court, the people of Hangzhou are still Chinese, your Su Song is too often full of food, what is the loss of receiving a little help for you?" The people of Hangzhou will thank you for your kindness, and we are also using money to buy food! (To be continued) R580
