Inside the Temple of Manna

Master Wei knelt down with weak feet, trembling, and shouted incoherently: "Holy Lord, lower official, lower official...... If it is true, the above content is true, and the lower officials dare not deceive, it is really ...... But Xia Guan didn't do this kind of thing, he just took the money, and he didn't dare to report it, and Xia Guan was afraid. ”

Li Er asked coldly, "Did you really just take the silver?" ”

"It's really just that I took the silver, and the lower officials didn't report it if they knew about it, and the crime deserved to die, but the lower officials didn't take it, the last head of the Duzhi didn't take the silver, and the whole family died in the fire, and the sentence was an accident, and the lower officials were also afraid."

"Bastard, how can this be justified!" actually involved in an unjust case, the anger in Li Er's heart could no longer be suppressed, his eyes were red, and he had a posture of wanting to eat people, which was 300,000 stone of grain, and once a year, no wonder the food skyrocketed every winter, no wonder there were always people who did not approve of disaster relief.

"Lord Qin." Li Er looked at Qin Huaidao.

"Wechen is here!"

"This matter is very good, I remember your work, is there a solution?" Li Er asked, the grain has been sold, and killing people is simple, but the matter has to be solved.

Qin Huaidao was stunned, this matter is not in his own hands, the Supervision Mansion only kills people, and does not care about burying people.

Li Er saw that Qin Huaidao wanted to be the shopkeeper, snorted coldly, and said: "I heard that Qinjiazhuang has been good recently, everyone has meat to eat, work to do, and high wages, I also heard that you took over more than 400 of my soldiers yesterday, daring to do this shows that you can support them, and it also shows that you have the talent to run the people, the way of management, this matter is caused by you, I need a solution." ”

"Holy Lord, you should find a husband in this matter." Qin Huaidao reminded.

"I want to hear your opinion now, you can't bear to suffer from Qinjiazhuang, so you can't bear to suffer hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an City? Go ahead. ”

"This ......" Qin Huaidao was depressed.

Dai Xuan was full of doubts, and couldn't help but ask, "Holy Lord, what happened?" ”

"That's right, Holy Lord, it's better to say it, and let's figure out a way together." Cui Renshi also said carefully, in fact, he had already guessed it at the moment when he saw Zhou Yi, but he couldn't admit it, and he didn't dare to admit it, it was a big crime of the Jiu clan, and he thought that he didn't leave a substantive handle, so he was a little relieved.

"We'll talk about you two later." Li Er said coldly, his eyes swept over Cui Renshi, and finally fell on Dai Guan, a little more disappointed, seeing Dai Guan's temples white, he wondered if it was time to change the household book, loyalty is good, but you have to do things.

His eyes finally fell on Qin Huaidao, Li Er's mood was better, this kid can do things, although his temper is a little big, who has the ability to have no temper? Only those who have a temper prove that they are open, straightforward, and selfless, and those who have no temper know what is going on in their hearts?

Thinking of this, Li Er was in a better mood again, and urged: "Lord Qin, don't worry, to put it bluntly, no matter what I say, I will forgive you for your innocence." ”

Qin Huaidao didn't want to say it, once he opened his mouth, he would come and ask if he encountered people's livelihood problems in the future, he would be annoyed, and besides, this matter is under Fang Xuanling's control, and it will offend Fang Xuanling if he interferes, it is not advisable, and he was about to refuse, when he saw Cui Renshi quietly looking over, his eyes were clearly a little resentful.

It's unbearable!

If you don't kill the Cui family, you will definitely not be able to live in peace in the future.

Qin Huaidao no longer hesitated, and said: "Holy Lord, Weichen has two strategies, one is to treat the symptoms and the other is to cure the root cause, but the stakes are very high, and they are suspicious and can't listen." ”

"Come on, take Master Dai and Master Cui down, take care of them separately, no one is allowed to touch, everyone else also goes down, and no one is allowed to approach within ten meters."

Dai Guan's face changed greatly, take it down, or take care of it, not please go down, this means that something really happened, did you really neglect it? couldn't help but glance at Cui Renshi, his eyes were a little complicated.

Cui Renshi was a little panicked, his hands were shaking, and he quickly hid in his sleeve.

Qianniuwei, who was waiting outside, rushed in and took the people out.

The main hall quickly returned to quiet.

Li Er looked at Qin Huaidao, with a little more expectation in his eyes, and said: "Lord Fang said that you want to form a team to protect the village, this matter is very important, the five surnames and Qiwang have their own caravan guards, that was before the founding of the Tang Dynasty, after Zhenguan, no one can openly and legally own the guards, I didn't agree, if you solve the food problem, I can treat it as unaware, but no more than a hundred people, and you must not hold swords, bows and crossbows." ”

Qin Huaidao's eyes lit up, and he smiled, if he didn't hold a sword or a bow or crossbow on his face, he would use it in secret, and who would know if he didn't expose it? Moreover, on the surface, there is also a way to solve the weapon problem, as long as Li Er acquiesces, otherwise, a rebellion will fall and he will die unjustly.

As for the food problem, is that a problem?

At this moment, Qin Huaidao was in a good mood and said: "Holy Lord, Weichen has asked people to seal up the grain merchants, and all the seized grain will be sold in a unified manner, restore the previous price, and pull down the price of grain." ”

"No, other grain merchants will take the opportunity to buy and hoard in large quantities, and wait for the imperial court to sell the grain short, the price of grain will rise faster, there have been similar things before, using the imperial court's grain, it has no effect." Li Er interrupted, a little disappointed in his heart, what kind of solution is this?

Qin Huaidao said with a smile: "Holy Lord, there is a way to sell grain here. ”

"Oh......" Li Eryi was stunned and became interested.

Qin Huaidao explained: "Grain is bought by other grain merchants, it will inevitably not be able to suppress grain prices, Weichen suggested that the purchase is limited, each person is only allowed to buy one pound of grain per day, with identity to buy, you can avoid buying more and occupying more, but also to avoid grain merchants stockpiling grain, this has three major benefits, one is that the grain flows into the hands of people who are really in need, and the people's hearts are stable; Second, the common people can buy rice every day, and the rice of other grain merchants cannot be sold, forcing them to reduce the price; Third, the imperial court can take the opportunity to see how many households there are in this Chang'an City, which is convenient for population statistics. ”

Li Er's eyes lit up, population has always been a big problem, especially those tenants, hires, hidden households, and house slaves who hang under the door of the family, and they can't be counted at all.

Now it's different, if you don't buy grain, you will starve to death, and if you buy it, you must register, unless the family takes out the grain to support these people, and the house slaves can be raised, how can the hidden households, tenants and hires be raised?

Moreover, in this way, the grain can flow to the people who are really in need, and other grain merchants will not be able to hoard grain, one pound a day, no one can occupy more, and the grain can be sold for a few more days, but there is also a day when the grain is sold short, Li Er asked: "There are two questions, one is what if the grain merchants do not reduce the price?" Second, what if the food can't support it for a few days? ”

"Holy Lord, this is actually a problem, and it is also the root cause of what Wechen is going to talk about next." Qin Huaidao explained seriously: "The symptomatic strategy is only to stabilize the people's hearts, how long the grain can be sold depends on how much grain can be seized, Weichen suspects that most of the grain flows into the counties outside Chang'an City, 300,000 stone is not a small amount, if all are sold in Chang'an City, the price of grain is unlikely to rise, and it is good to have 100,000 stone left, and 100,000 stone should be able to last for a few days." ”

"What if you run out? Tell me about your solution. ”

Li Er urged, looking forward to it a little more.
