Chapter 286: The Innocent "Culprit"

"Mo'er, I also understand what you said, but officials are sent abroad, and family members are not allowed to leave, this is the rule, even if I go to ask the Queen Mother, I am afraid that I will be left in Dadu for various reasons." Mu Chonglan said.

Su Chengmo frowned, she didn't know about this matter. "If not, go back first, and pass the news of the matter here to my uncle, maybe my uncle will have a way to help you leave the capital, and it is also a matter of maybe."

"That's right." Mu Chonglan nodded, what she couldn't solve, Xiao Xiantang could often solve, although I don't know why, but it has always been like this.

In the following days, Mu Chonglan lived a very low-key life, of course, only on the surface, she was already working on the price of rice and grain in private.

Everything is as Xiao Xiantang said, the price of grain is rising, and then it has caused a certain rush of grabbing, as if if you don't buy it now, you will not be able to afford it immediately, and as a result, because of this kind of coaxing, the price of grain in most of the capital has climbed to a higher price, making it more difficult to buy grain.

While quietly transporting grain to Dadu, Mu Chonglan sighed that Xiao Xiantang's material was like a god.

Su Chengmo felt that the change in grain prices could hardly be guaranteed without Xiao Xiantang's "credit" behind him, after all, Dasheng is not a small country, even if the embankment disaster caused a lot of losses, it would not be so exaggerated in terms of grain prices.

However, Su Chengmo didn't say this to Mu Chonglan, she felt that even if she said it, with Mu Chonglan's current state, I am afraid she would not be able to listen to it.

The crazy rise in food prices is not completely unaffected for Mu Chonglan, for example, Zuixiaolou is now facing a certain amount of trouble, because the price is not only rising in grain, but also in other ingredients, and it is also growing slightly, but this growth is far less exaggerated than the growth of food.

In addition to the drunken sky, there is also a certain loss of the Jue Color Fang, the loss is not those big customers, but more retail investors, most of the retail investors are ordinary people, now the food can not afford to buy, rouge gouache, these are naturally bought less.

But fortunately, there is always more in than out, so Mu Chonglan is not too worried.

In this way, while waiting for Xiao Xiantang to come back with the news, Mu Chonglan secretly put his rice grain into the grain market and took out a lot of cash.

Zhen Youcai saw that Mu Chonglan was almost the first big person to sell grain, so he grinded his teeth in a hurry, and turned his head to Mu Chonglan, hoping that she would stop this behavior as soon as possible, hold the grain for more time, and then consider the issue of selling.

In fact, Mu Chonglan is not unaware that he is now in a food shortage, as long as he can hold on to grain for a while, the price of this grain may rise, and the grain in his hands can be sold for more silver, but the crazy rise in grain prices is not particularly different for large families, only ordinary people and some poor people are pitted, so if he has been holding on to food, he will have a somewhat unkind taste of being rich.

What's more, the matter of the grain shortage has attracted the attention of the imperial court, and it must not be long before the unified control will begin, and now he sells the grain, he is still a retail household, and when the unified control is over, how much grain he sells is registered, and he still has to pay a certain tax, so it is better to sell it now and give this tax to the ordinary people and poor people.

Sure enough, within a few days, the crown prince Xiao Jingxuan proposed a unified control and a method to control grain prices, and then immediately became sought after by the people, and the richest man Jin also took the initiative to throw out a large amount of rice grain, alleviating the shortage of rice and grain in the grain market, and the whole capital gradually returned to calm.

Zhen Youcai gritted his teeth and said that the imperial court did not give businessmen a way to live, and the tax was inevitably too high, and the Jin family was also spineless, and actually supported this unified control.

Wu Ming said that the Jin family is not bad for money at this time, what is missing is a name, and at this time, it is under unified control, and the status quo of buying and selling imperial merchants and imperial merchants in the past will gradually decrease, so the Jin family is only temporarily suffering a loss, and will soon earn it back.

At the same time, Wu Ming also praised Mu Chonglan for being prescient, but only if Mu Chonglan herself knew that she was not prescient, but because Xiao Xiantang was prescient.

When he heard the rumors in the market about how the prince Xiao Jingxuan was so talented that he could come up with a unified control method, Mu Chonglan almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth.

In her previous life, she didn't know, and she once thought that Xiao Jingxuan was very smart, but in this life, she knew very well that this method of unified control was actually thought up by Xiao Xiantang, and even Xiao Xiantang was sent to Yanzhou, but it was also because Emperor Sheng wanted to take away his method for the crown prince Xiao Jingxuan to use to win the hearts of the people, and he was afraid that he would make trouble, so he deliberately degraded him and stayed away from Dadu.

Thinking about it this way, Mu Chonglan hated those people in the Heavenly Family even more.

Different from the thriving state of food prices, the matter of female officials can be said to be getting more and more intense, although Emperor Sheng did not indicate that female officials are not allowed, but he has also deliberately suppressed this matter, so in recent days, the Queen Mother is very angry.

Mu Chonglan, the suspected "culprit", was inevitably implicated, and the Queen Mother had to carry her over almost every day, and she didn't talk to her, just let her pestle aside, and then her nose was not a nose, and her eyes were not eyes.

In addition to the Queen Mother, Emperor Sheng's small movements were not small, he asked her to speak several times, and even called Mu Chonglan over with the envoy of Moxue Country, saying that she and the barbarian little prince were old acquaintances.

Mu Chonglan was a little dazed, thinking to himself, is this what the master said about not fighting, not knowing each other?

Because she beat the little prince of the barbarians, they are old acquaintances, if she fights the little prince of the barbarians a few more times, will she say that the little prince of the barbarians is her best friend in the future?

When Mu Chonglan appeared in the banquet, the expression of the little prince of barbarians was as wonderful as it was, fortunately, it was also a formal occasion, Mu Chonglan didn't mention the beating thing, and the little prince of barbarians was not embarrassed to mention it, the two looked at it as if it was the first time they met, but Emperor Sheng smiled very happily, so that Mu Chonglan couldn't help but suspect that Emperor Sheng deliberately took her to the Moxue Kingdom.

In fact, Mu Chonglan really didn't guess wrong, Emperor Sheng was really using her to respond to the Desert Snow Country, because the Desert Snow Country came to the capital this time, in addition to sending tribute, the most important purpose was to negotiate.

Many years ago, the first emperor of Moxue Country died suddenly, and the princes under his knees were still young, coveted by relatives, and the surrounding tribes were also eyeing each other, ready to annex Moxue Country at any time.

As a last resort, Queen Moxue personally went to Dasheng to ask for help from Emperor Dasheng, offering most of the country, not to mention, but also promising to attach Dasheng in the name of a small border country for generations, and pay tribute to Dasheng every year.

In recent years, the royal family of Moxue Country has prospered again, and even has its own iron horse, so since then, Moxue Country will inevitably have some thoughts, such as wanting to return to its original land, and wanting to talk to Dasheng about the positioning of the two countries, in short, not very peaceful.
