Three days later.

The Xu family took the lead in compromising and sold a large amount of grain at a low price, and the price of grain in Daxingcheng fell again.

Many grain merchant families collectively put pressure on the Xu family, but the Xu family still ignored it and still went their own way, and the originally stable grain merchant alliance had collapsed at this moment.

Then some small merchants began to be nervous, and they also began to sell grain, the form became worse and worse, and slowly more grain merchants began to panic and began to sell grain.

The price of grain, the most important weather vane of grain in Guanzhong, suddenly fell below the 60 yuan mark.

The grain market was in mourning, and the merchants were full of remorse.

When His Royal Highness the Acting King had negotiated with them at the price of 90 wen per dou, they were very arrogant and refused, and now it seems how stupid their behavior was in the first place.

"At present, the grain price in Daxing City is too low, and Yongfeng Cang will gradually reduce the food supply!" At this time, a notice was issued to save the grain price of Daxing City, and Yang Yu also knew that it was too late, and began to come forward to save the market.

As soon as this news came out, the grain prices in the entire Daxing City began to pick up, and the grain prices rebounded to about 62 Wen per bucket.

Then the price of grain rose slowly, and finally fixed at about 65 Wen, which is already a very low grain price.

Although countless grain merchants do not say that they are losing money, their profits are already very meager.

At this moment, a mysterious buyer from Luoyang appeared and offered seventy wen and one bucket for unlimited grain purchases.

The Luoyang area has been besieged for a long time, and the price of grain is high, which is the consensus of everyone, and this person has appeared, and is immediately sought after by countless families. They sold the hoarded grain in their hands to this person.

The price of grain on the market is only 65 yuan, and selling it to Luoyang buyers can earn an extra 5 yuan per bucket.

A thousand quintals,

10,000 quintals.

100,000 quintals.

One million quintals.

The mysterious buyer bought 2 million quintals of grain in Daxing City in just ten days.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately made people smack.

Everyone knew that the landlords in Daxing City had a lot of grain, but they didn't expect that there would be so much.

"Well deserved!" The people who heard the news cursed one after another, hoarding so much grain, and raising the price of grain, they deserved to suffer.

The family that sold the grain secretly rejoiced that it was good to be able to sell grain at such a high price, because His Royal Highness, who had a large amount of grain, could not let the price of grain go up again. Wait a few months for the new grain to come down. At that time, the price of food would be lower.

Sell it at the price of seventy wen a bucket, and they are already satisfied.

More people want to see the joke of the mysterious buyer, although the price of seventy wen is lower, but it will be pulled to Luoyang City. That's a lot of manpower and material resources. I'm afraid that after it arrives in Luoyang. The price of grain will rise to about 100 wen per bucket.

This is also the convenience brought by the brick road, if it was placed before, the price of each bucket of grain would have at least doubled.

However, what made everyone stunned was this. The mysterious buyer did not pull the grain down Luoyang City at all, but instead pulled it to Yongfeng Warehouse, and all of them entered the warehouse of Yongfeng Warehouse.

"Yongfeng Cang!" The crowd exclaimed.

At this time, the grain merchant families knew that they had been fooled.

These things do not stand up to investigation, and soon, they found the source.

"Xu family!" The head of the Qing family gritted his teeth and said, and the faces of the other families were also blue and red.

They finally remembered what Yang Yu said in the court that day, "As long as it is seventy-five Wen and one bucket, the meaning of this king's unlimited acquisition." ”

At this moment, the wood has become a boat, and among all the grain merchants in Daxing City, only the Xu family has made a big profit.

"Clever!" Qingyun sighed.

Everyone was silent for a while, they were able to be the heads of their respective families, they were all shrewd people, of course they knew that what Qingyun said was Gao Ming was referring to His Royal Highness the Acting King.

Yang Yu only used a little profit temptation to disintegrate the century-old grain merchant alliance, which stabilized the grain price in the Guanzhong area, and gathered two million quintals of grain for Yongfeng Cang.

Coupled with the three million quintals brought back from Luoyang, after the new grain is beaten down in September, I am afraid that the Yongfeng warehouse, which has never been full, will be completely full.

This is really killing three birds with one stone, and all the families can't help but admire. The old and spicy methods of acting king Yang Yu are simply chilling.

What makes all the families even more chilling is that once His Royal Highness the Acting King has a full Yongfeng warehouse, can the grain price in Daxing City rise in the future?

Everyone's hearts trembled involuntarily, they could all imagine the dark scene in the future, and I am afraid that this period of profiteering will be gone forever.

………………

………………

……

"Three million quintals, Daxing City is simply a lion's mouth."

In the Luoyang Palace, the golden purple light doctor Duan Da was dissatisfied.

Defeating Li Mi this time, Duan Danai is the biggest beneficiary, but people's hearts are so dissatisfied, although Duan Da has received a lot of benefits, but seeing Daxing City pull out a large amount of grain from the back warehouse, he is still dissatisfied.

Yang Tong, who was sitting on the main seat, was also distressed about so much food, some time ago, Luoyang lacked food, which had already made him feel uneasy, and now a large amount of food was about to be given to Yang Yu, and he was also full of reluctance.

Now Luoyang and Daxingcheng are in the honeymoon period of cooperation, but he and Yang Yu are still in a competitive relationship.

All the ministers looked at Wei Jin, because he had always been in charge of the contact with Daxing City.

Wei Jin said unhurriedly: "In the extremely difficult situation in Luoyang, Daxing City did not hesitate to come to the rescue, but the Guanzhong region is in a food shortage, and it is time for us in Luoyang to return to Daxing City." ”

"There is a food shortage in Guanzhong!" The ministers were stunned.

There has always been a shortage of grain in Guanzhong, and grain prices are high, which is also one of the reasons why Yang Guang moved the capital.

"Isn't three million quintals a bit much," Yang Tong said dissatisfied.

The ministers also nodded, three million quintals was too much, and they all thought that Daxing City was a coercion of kindness.

There are also many ministers who maliciously speculate that Wei Jin and Yang Yu, the acting king, are related, and the two are working together to hollow out Luoyang City.

Yang Tong also thought of this possibility, and looked at Wei Jin with unkind eyes.

Wei Jin felt everyone's thoughts, and couldn't help but feel angry, and said, "Do you think that giving three million loads of grain is a loss for us?" ”

"Isn't it?" Yang Tong wondered.

Wei Jin snorted coldly: "This official thinks that it is I Luoyang who has taken advantage." ”

"Luoyang took advantage?" Duan Da was incredulous, "I only saw that the grain that originally belonged to Luoyang was constantly being transported to Daxing City, and I didn't see where it was earned." ”

"Since the war with Li Mi, everyone can calculate how much material Daxing City has sent. 500,000 pieces of weapons and armor, 5,000 horses, tens of thousands of bows and crossbows, and millions of arrows. and sent troops to defeat Li Mi and recaptured the retreat. Wei Jin counted them one by one.

The ministers were in an uproar, it turned out that unconsciously, Daxingcheng had helped Luoyang so much.

"Those weapons, armor, and war horses are all that Daxing City should support, after all, our Luoyang blocked Li Mi for Daxing City, and it was also the emperor's order to send 20,000 troops at the same time." Duan Daqiang argued.

"Yes! Daxing City should support Luoyang, but Luoyang should support Daxing City? Wezin retorted.

"That can't be so much!" Right Shiro Lu Chu said.

"Many? If calculated according to the market price, the substances that support us are at least 3 million or more. Three million quintals of grain is about the same price, if you just want to take advantage of it for free, not like paying the price, in the old man's opinion, there are not such good things in the world. Wei Jin sneered.

The ministers of Luoyang were Hao Ran for a while.

"Ahem! This matter is settled. Yang Tong made a final decision, anyway, he now has other ninety percent of the warehouse, and he is not entangled in these grains.

"Let's discuss how to place the Daxing City army!"

Thinking of the two troops in Daxing, especially the special bandit suppression force, the ministers couldn't help but cry out in their hearts.

The army of Daxingcheng was the absolute main force in the battle with Li Mi, and these ministers of Luoyang saw it in their eyes.

In any case, we can't let go of these two troops. This is the consensus of all the ministers of Luoyang City, and now Luoyang City needs troops who can fight well.

"It's better to lead Pang Yu and Huo Shiju to lead the Guanzhong soldiers to be stationed in Yongcheng." Duan Da suggested.

The ministers' eyes couldn't help but light up. Yongcheng is the eastern gateway of Luoyang City, and the powerful Daxing army, once stationed in Yongcheng, greatly guarantees the safety of Luoyang City.

Yang Tong was also moved, and nodded slowly,

"What do you think?" Yang Tong asked.

"The ministers think it's feasible!" The ministers of Luoyang said in unison.

They have no guilt at all about putting the Daxing army at the front, and it is much better to put the army of Daxingcheng at the forefront than the army from Luoyang.

Wei Jin remained silent, although he felt that such a thing was inappropriate, but as a courtier of Luoyang, he could only stand on the side that was beneficial to Luoyang.

"Weichen believes that in order to mobilize Pang Yu and others, a problem must be solved." At this time, the right Wuwei general Huangfu Wuyi came out of the ranks.

"What's the problem?" The ministers were strange.

"This is the salary request that the prison general Pang Yu and Hu Benlang handed Huo Shiju to the military department today." Huangfu Wuyi handed over the fold.

Yang Tong took the fold presented by the eunuch and opened it to take a look.

The excerpt is very ordinary, the same as the usual excerpt of the army's salary, the only difference is the amount in it.

"Three thousand pairs of armor, two hundred thousand crossbow arrows, five thousand strong bows, and three times the silver." The more Yang Tong looked at it, the more angry he became.

"Impossible!" Yang Tong flatly refused.

These are only the requirements of Pang Yu's 20,000 soldiers, Huo Shiju's 2,000 special bandit suppression troops asked for as many materials as Pang Yu, could it be that the army in Daxing City was piled up with silver?

"Impossible?" When Pang Yu's request for pay was passed to every minister, all of them were categorically refused.

"In addition, Pang Yu and Huo Shiju also asked the soldiers who died in battle to pay a compensation of 300 yuan each!" Huangfu Wuyi said expressionlessly (to be continued......)
