Chapter 207: Green and Yellow Don't Pick Up
The cruelty of the world lies in its never-ending, which will not stop for anyone, and the wheels of time will roll forward and will not stop for anyone.
Wei Wensheng's death was like a pebble thrown into the sea of waves, and after a ripple of disgust in Daxing City, it disappeared without a trace.
Daxing City really ushered in the era of the king, and everyone believed that this was a new era.
Yang Yu's face was calm, looking at the continuous farmland in front of him, the sky was longitudinal and horizontal, and the valley fields were endless.
A breeze blows, the valley waves roll, and the green waves fall together, which is very spectacular.
In the grain fields, many farmers are standing in the grain fields, and they are working intensely.
On the side of the valley field, a clear canal flows slowly, and June is the wet season, and the water level in the canal is very high, and the current is very fast.
Many farmers are fetching water from the canals to irrigate their fields. Occasionally, one or two more water rows are on the canal, and one or two strong men are trampling hard, and a steady stream of canal water flows in the grain fields, moistening the grain fields, and all the grain fields that can be watered are all rising gratifyingly, and this year's harvest must be very good.
"It looks like it's been a good year!" Yang Yu said softly.
"This year's rain is not sufficient, and the scene of such a bumper harvest is due to His Royal Highness the Acting King to gather the displaced people, vigorously clean up the river and build water conservancy, so that there is today's scene." Dasi Nong Hu Yankai said.
Today, Yang Yu specially came to inspect the farmland, accompanied by Hu Yankai, the great farmer, agriculture is the top priority, no matter in this era, there is no mistake in heavy agriculture.
No business, no wealth, no agriculture, no stability. This is a true truth through the ages.
Yang Yu must make a posture of heavy agriculture in terms of form and long-term stability of Daxing City, and inspecting farmland is part of his inevitable itinerary.
"As long as we wait for the autumn harvest, I believe that the price of grain in Daxing City will definitely drop!" Dasi Nong Hu Yankai's tone was a little happy.
Yang Yu nodded, suddenly stunned, and suddenly turned his head to stare at Dasi Nong Hu Yankai.
"Grain prices in Daxing City are rising?" Yang Yu's voice raised slightly.
"Ugh!" Dasi Nong Huyan Kai paused, not understanding why His Royal Highness the Acting King would pay attention to this issue.
"Your Royal Highness, it is normal for food prices to rise at this time of year, at this time of year. Food prices will go up. Dasi Nong Huyankai explained.
Every year in June and July. It has been a custom for centuries that food prices will rise all over the country.
Yang Yu suddenly, a word came to his mind, and blurted out: "Green and yellow." ”
"Green and yellow!" Dasi Nong Hu Yankai whispered. Silence ensued.
This situation is indeed a green and yellow situation. He didn't expect His Royal Highness the Acting King, who had been in the deep palace for a long time, to be able to see so far-reaching.
Yang Yu looked at the farmland in front of him. The original joy was gone, and it turned out that behind this thriving, it was so cold.
The Guanzhong region is located in the northwest. The weather is cold, the precipitation is low, and the tradition of spring planting and autumn harvest has been passed down for thousands of years, and the crops are harvested once a year.
Every year in March, the farmer begins to sow seeds, all the farmland is full of vitality, the green crops are endless, the summer precipitation is more, the crops are thriving, in August and September, when the crops are ripe, they begin to turn yellow, and it is the harvest season.
And so on year after year, forever.
However, there is one time of the year that is the most difficult time of the year for farmers, and that is June and July.
In June and July of each year, the peasants have almost eaten up last year's grain, and the new grain will not be harvested for a month or two.
During this season, countless peasants starved and sold their property, or borrowed grain from landlords, or even sold their sons and daughters, or left their homes to beg along the road, becoming homeless.
At the same time, this season is also the most frequent season of peasant uprisings, countless hungry people form displaced people, as long as someone raises their arms and shouts, those hungry displaced people do not care about their families and countries, as long as they have something to eat, they are willing to do anything.
In July last year, Yang Yu came back from Luoyang, and the displaced people he met in Tongguan came out to flee the famine because of the lack of green and yellow, which triggered a frenzy of millions of displaced people in Daxing City.
Now that a year has passed, it seems that such a cycle will begin again.
"How much has the price of food gone up!" Yang Yu turned around and looked at Hu Yankai.
Hu Yankai was silent for a moment and said, "At present, the price of grain in Daxing City has risen by three percent. ”
"Thirty percent." Yang Yu groaned.
This is not a small amount, at that time Luoyang City was besieged by Wagang, and the price of grain transported by Yang Yu to Daxing City only doubled.
"I see!" Yang Yu glanced at Da Si Nong meaningfully and said lightly.
"Yes!"
Hu Yankai trembled slightly, bowed his head and said.
He knew that since Yang Yu said that he knew, it meant that His Royal Highness the Acting King had already taken it to heart.
"Go back to the East Palace!" Yang Yu said lightly, he lost interest in inspecting and returned directly to Daxing City.
"Yes!" Hu Yankai Yang Yu responded.
Late at night, East Palace.
Yang Yu looked at the information in his hand, his face was heavy.
"At present, most of the people who raise the price of grain are Daxing landlords, led by the Sanyuan Qingjia, the Wugong Xu family, and the Wu family of Zhengxian County, and there are also some landlords from other counties who are involved." Wang Xiyu reports.
"The Qing family, the Xu family, the Wu family." Yang Yu whispered, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, these people are really bold, there are many people in the Guanzhong area, and the price of food is slightly expensive, and now a large number of refugees and displaced people are pouring in, and the food is even more scarce.
These large landowners owned a large amount of land and had a huge amount of grain.
These people are deeply favored by the state, and instead of making progress, they maliciously raise the price of food.
"Now that millions of displaced people are pouring into Daxing City, there is not enough food, if it weren't for the grain merchants led by the Lu family to suppress prices, the price of grain in Daxing City would have risen long ago."
"It is said that the Lu family has been threatened by these families many times, if it weren't for the fact that the Lu family had the golden order of the acting king, the Lu family would have been unable to withstand it." Wang Xiyu reports.
Yang Yu's face softened slightly, there are still some people in Daxing City who are loyal to the country.
"Pay more attention to the Lu family in the future!" Yang Yu commanded.
Wang Xi was a little stunned, he knew how much benefit it would represent to take a little care of the Lu family.
Yang Yu is this character, whoever wants to be good to him, he will repay him twice.
"Then do you want to warn these families, if you let the price of food rise, it will be bad for Daxing City!" Even Wang Xi knows the dangers of high food prices.
"No!" Yang Yu waved his hand.
Although it is simple and quick to solve the problem by administrative means, the sequelae are very large, and in the long run, the hidden dangers are very large.
The corners of Yang Yu's mouth curled slightly, revealing a wicked smile: "If they want to play, then Benwang will play with them." ”
"Yes!" Wang Xiying said,
Wang Xi looked forward to it in his heart, so that His Royal Highness the Acting King could personally take action, and those landlords of the family could be regarded as glorious even though they were dead. (To be continued......)
