Forced by high prices, under the pressure of life in Chang'an, Liu Qianli is full of energy.

is also the reason why he is the head of the family, and he is still a straight man of steel, and he thinks that he should stand up to the sky and support his wife and children.

With such a mind, Liu Qianli came to Chang'an for less than ten days, and he had already done a lot of bamboo weaving utensils, as well as small carpenter work, such as the small pestle made according to his daughter's idea, all of which were sold in the West Market, and while selling, he relied on these carpenters as a gimmick to let people know that he was a carpenter with craftsmanship, so as to rely on this to take on some large pieces of carpentry work and earn more wages.

In this way, all kinds of people in the society will have more contact, and the news will naturally be more well-informed, not to mention that you don't need to listen to it, you can see it when you look up, and it's another month has passed, and there is still no rain.

There has been no rain in June of the lunar calendar, and seeing that summer is about to pass, it has obviously affected farming, even if it is raining now, the autumn harvest will be owed, so there is nothing wrong with saving more food.

With the company of a good wife, as well as ten years of experience in setting up stalls, it is better to read thousands of books than to walk thousands of miles, all the way from thousands of miles away from the countryside and mountain villages to Chang'an, Liu Qianli showed courage and carefulness in the face of possible disasters.

At the beginning, he was prepared, even if he might buy high-priced grain, he resolutely took out 14 yuan of his savings to buy grain from his savings over the years, which was his boldness.

After observing for a month, he found that the autumn harvest could not be counted on, and he began to stock up on grain again.

The sixth month of the lunar calendar is already the tail of summer, and many people who originally had an optimistic attitude have begun to waver, and this wavering, food prices will naturally rise again.

The price of grain has risen, and grain merchants have hoarded grain, resulting in the reluctance to sell delicacies in the market, or restricting purchases to achieve the purpose of continuing to increase prices.

At this time, all kinds of means have just begun, the price of grain in early June is still 334 wen a bucket, Liu Qianli is well-informed by setting up a stall every day, where there is grain to sell, where to buy first, sometimes buy a bucket, sometimes can buy two or three buckets, in short, how much can be bought, of course, not every day can buy grain, June this month still bought two stones of grain, which is about 22 catties of grain in modern times.

Wait until this month, that is, in July, it is clear that the time sequence is autumn, although in the eyes of many people, this is the end of the summer, especially the seventh day of the seventh day of July, the day is still steaming, but there is already a little coolness in the morning and evening.

It is also a sign of these autumns, and it has not rained in the sky, and food is even more scarce in Chang'an.

At the beginning of July, the grain was still 380 wen a bucket, but as of 26 July, a bucket of grain will cost 450 wen, which is equivalent to an increase of 70 wen in less than a month.

If it continues to rise at this rate, it is conceivable that by the end of this month, the price of grain will directly break through the 1500 mark, a full half of the money, and a horse of silk!

Compared with the rise in grain prices in July, the most difficult thing is to limit purchases and reluctant to sell, and ordinary people in Chang'an cannot buy grain with money, or can only buy very little grain.

If it seems that it will be a month down, Liu Qianli buys grain every day while setting up a stall in the West Market, but counting the bucket he bought today, he only bought nine buckets of grain in total.

However, from May to buy five stone grain at one time, June a whole month around the purchase of two stone grain, July and buy nearly once the grain, now the family is really stored for more than half a year of food, even if they do not buy grain after that, their family is not extravagant and wasteful to eat, survive this winter must be no problem, that is, next year's green and yellow March can also be covered, and then it is summer, after the rain, the spring bamboo shoots, the mountains full of wild fruits and game, the fish, shrimp, crabs and crabs in the river, can make people make a living, then it should always be able to rain, winter wheat in the lunar calendar of the mango planting should be harvested in April, and their family can be considered to have survived this extraordinary period safely.

Of course, these days, a family has a few mouths, and they have to eat, there are Liu Chenxing's Yulu rice and the grain that Uncle Liu prepared for them in the rice jar when he came, and they have eaten together for nearly three months, and now they have to use the large amount of food they bought.

Liu and Grandma Liu were preparing a family dinner in the kitchen in the backyard, and there was a lotus pond in the front yard with a good view, and the grandfather was standing in the lotus pond talking.

After listening to Aye Liu Qianli's detailed talk about the recent stalls and grain hoarding, Liu Chenxing can be said to have a basic understanding of the current situation in Chang'an.

Not to mention the large area of Guanzhong, Chang'an has been dry for four months, and there is no hope for the summer and autumn harvests.

The price of grain in Chang'an has risen wildly, and it is already on the verge of the limit of ordinary people's bearing, which is one of them.

Second, Chang'an grain has a price and no market, and even if the people take the money, it is not easy to buy grain.

To sum up, it can be seen that there has been a food panic in Chang'an.

Chang'an is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, panic is absolutely impossible, now we should first appease the panic of the people of Chang'an.

In other words, it is nothing more than the relief of the imperial court after the drought.

The measures taken by the DPRK during the drought were nothing more than the transfer of millet to help the people.

There are three major measures in this regard, one is to immigrate to the people, the second is to move the millet to the people, and the third is to level the country.

These three major measures were not uncommon after the Shen family won the world and established the court.

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was stipulated: "Every year of flood and drought, it will be given to the main warehouse, and where there is no warehouse, it will be eaten in other states." "This is equivalent to immigrants or immigrants.

More detailed, the nearest drought situation to the common people of Chang'an occurred during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Shen family, the empress's husband.

She only saw a record not long ago - it was a year old, there were droughts and frost insects in more than 40 states in the world, and the people were hungry, especially in Guanzhong. The edict allowed him to go to the states to chase food, but he still transferred to Jiangnan to rent rice for relief. ”

This kind of relief occurred frequently during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Shen family.

But now the situation is not yet needed to open a warehouse for relief, when it is Pingguang, as the name suggests, in the face of a famine, the government sells grain at the usual price, so that the food shortage can be stabilized, and the people can panic more steadily.

After listening to all this, Liu Chenxing thought about it as soon as he thought about it, and he already had a plan in his heart about what the imperial court should do next, and why Shen Zhongyi and his party came today.

Next, I only need to learn more about the current situation with my brother Liu Qingshan and Uncle Liu, as well as the attitude of the court towards Guanzhong's drought after many years.

Liu Chenxing quickly had the next idea in his mind, of course, as a mere Jiupin female history, such a big matter may not involve herself, but this is a national event, as a Beijing official, and her family is in the capital, it can be said that she is in this torrent, and only by understanding the dynamics from time to time can she respond to all changes with the same.

Thinking of this, he suddenly found that he and Aye Liu Qianli were quite similar to what they had been thinking recently, and they couldn't help but snicker.
