Listening to Chen Ping's secret conclusion, Liu Bang's expression changed, and he finally raised his head with a gloomy face.

"In addition to this recital, the Marquis of Yu asked Yu Zhen to ask Yu Zhen: King Yu, how to deal with it."

"Yesterday, Lu Xuan, the king of Yan, came to report: In the first month of spring, Chen Feng sent an envoy north out of Yanmen, please lead the Hun cavalry to the south, thinking that it is foreign aid."

"If what King Yan probed is true, the Huns really sent troops south, and they are only afraid of the war on behalf of Zhao, and it can be peaceful in March and May······"

With a slightly gloomy sigh, he saw Liu Bang shaking his head slightly, staring at Chen Ping with dark eyes for a long time.

When Chen Ping couldn't help but feel a little weak, he saw Liu Bang pouting and nodding, and sat back on the soft couch.

"Changling is the place where my body rests for a long time after a hundred years; The crown prince and Changling were assassinated, I can't help but ask! ”

"The battles between Ran Dai and Zhao continued, and I lacked skills, and the class teacher was far away."

"I want to send Qu to rebel against the marquis to Chang'an, and pass on my message to the prince: this time, the Changling Tian clan raised the price of grain, the Huaiyin Marquis assassinated the prince, and the Zhao King and the Tian clan were not clear, and other matters were all handled by the prince!"

"On this trip, Qu Rebellion Marquis should remember: when the prince hears my message, he should immediately reply; After the prince's recovery, Qu Shunhou will immediately turn back! ”

"Don't let the prince invite the queen and the marquis to teach each other in this way!"

With a solemn face, he waved Liu Bang lightly to his side, and immediately a soldier stepped forward and handed a scepter with a yak tail to Chen Ping.

"Minister!"

"Respectfully!"

Solemnly bowed to Liu Bang, and bowed deeply to the knotted yak, Chen Pingcai stretched out his hands solemnly, and the scepter turned out.

It's just that after receiving the scepter, Chen Ping did not withdraw from the military tent in a hurry, but looked at Liu Bang with a hesitant face.

"Please also ask Your Majesty to instruct: What should be the outline of the minister's trip?"

He asked with a weak heart, and saw Chen Ping hurriedly added: "The Changling Tian clan has been copied and beheaded for the queen, and the prince is ······in the Changling Tian clan."

"Could it be that Your Majesty wants to ask, is this time, the prince's strategy of revitalizing the 'grain market', in order to stabilize the detailed and detailed strategy of grain prices in Guanzhong?"

After Liu Bang nodded slightly with indifference, Chen Ping asked hesitantly: "······ Marquis Yu Huaiyin?"

"When His Majesty was about to set out on the expedition, he sent the Marquis of Jiang to Chang'an and told the Marquis of Huaiyin about it."

"This time, the Marquis of Huaiyin sent a soldier to assassinate the prince, if you talk about the law of the country, the Marquis of Huaiyin will rebel and be a clan!"

"However, the prince is still young, if the prince kills Huaiyin in person, I am afraid that the stigma of 'killing heroes' may be detrimental to the prestige of the prince······"

Asking this question with a little confusion, Chen Ping's gaze at Liu Bang was already full of hesitation.

"If Your Majesty has no intention of saving it, you should protect the prince from this stigma."

"However, if Your Majesty still wants to change the reserve, why do you say, 'The matter of disposing of King Zhao will be decided by the prince'?"

After expressing all the confusion in his heart, Chen Ping shook his head and bowed to Liu Bang again.

"The minister is stupid, please also ask Your Majesty to make it clear······"

But when Liu Bang heard this, his expression was full of gloomy sighs, the corners of his eyes narrowed slightly, and his pupils were stunned for a long time.

In the end, it was in the stove beside him that the burning wood made a 'crackling' sound, which pulled Liu Bang's thoughts back.

I saw Liu Bang shaking his head again and sighing and getting up, putting his hands behind his back.

"The matter of easy storage is related to the country, and the war is not over today, so it is not appropriate to be in a hurry."

"Qu rebelled against the marquis, but went, heard the prince in front of me, and got the prince's countermeasures."

"The matter of assassinating Huaiyin, no matter how the prince disposes of it, Qu Yihou only needs to hear it and turn back, and his face is presented to me."

"And the ······ of King Zhao"

Speaking of this, Liu Bang's words froze for a moment, and he sighed for a long time.

"Alas······"

"Cannibalism······

"Cannibalism············"

After pondering for a while, I saw Liu Bang sighing with vicissitudes on his face, and looking at Chen Ping's eyes, there was also a faint sense of exhaustion.

"If the prince wants to offend King Zhao, or if he doesn't sin in the face, he secretly spreads a scandal in Chang'an, and Qu Shunhou will return to Handan with King Zhao and Qi Ji on the Son of Heaven Festival."

"If he is not guilty, Qu Shunhou will go to tell the Marquis: The matter of the adhesion between King Zhao and the Tian clan must not be discussed by the theory of things."

"If the prince is not guilty, he will return to protect King Zhao······"

As he spoke, Liu Bang was speechless again, and shook his head with a self-deprecating smile.

"Hey ······"

"The queen is here, and King Zhao instructed the Tian family to interfere with the grain price in Guanzhong, how can the prince not be guilty?"

As if he was talking to himself, he saw Liu Bang sneering and raising his head: "In short, Qu Shunhou's trip, you only need to keep these three things in mind." ”

"One: Ask the prince about the details and strategies of stabilizing grain prices, and present them to me in the face."

"Second: With my edict, Prince Xu personally sentenced Huaiyin to the crime, and the prince's response was presented to me."

"Third: order the crown prince to decide the matter of the adhesion between King Zhao and the Tian clan; If the prince wants to offend King Zhao, he will take King Zhao and Qi Ji to Handan in the name of 'His Majesty's edict to King Zhao to go to the country', and if the prince is not guilty, then stop. ”

"Regardless of whether the crown prince is guilty of King Zhao's crime or not, he will clearly tell Xiao He: This matter must not be spread outside!"

Speaking of this, Liu Bang's face was already faintly marked with some warnings.

"Qu Yihou, do you understand?"

Hearing Liu Bang's extremely specific task description, Chen Ping recited it silently several times before finally giving up his hand to Liu Bang.

"Minister, the ······ command"

Seeing Liu Bang's gloomy face, he nodded slightly, sat back on the soft couch, and rubbed his forehead tiredly.

"In addition, when Qu Shunhou returns to Chang'an, he can also explore the renovation of water conservancy in Guanzhong, and what the prince has done since I set out on the expedition."

"If there is anything wrong, you can tell Xiao alone; If not, everything is as it ······"

After saying this, Liu Bang could no longer suppress the tiredness that hit him like a tide, and lay down backwards.

When Liu Bang lay on the soft couch and waved his hand weakly, Chen Ping bowed deeply to Liu Bang, and immediately tidied up his clothes, straightened his waist, and withdrew from the hall with a scepter in his hand.

When the palace maids and eunuchs beside the soft couch quietly retreated, Liu Bang, who was paralyzed on the soft couch, finally sighed tiredly.

"Easy Storage ······"

"Scrapped ······"

"Hey ······"

·

The picture turns, Chang'an Weiyang Palace, Taigong Phoenix Palace.

As Liu Ying expected, after receiving Liu Ying's notice that 'I plan to visit', Xiao He almost immediately sent someone into the palace and told Liu Ying, 'Don't! I'll do it myself! ’。

Under Xiao He's 'hospitality', Liu Ying had to reluctantly change into a slightly more formal dress, and waited for the arrival of Xiao He and Yangchengyan in the side hall of the west hall of the Taigong Palace.

After the monarch and the minister bowed to each other and sat down separately, Liu Ying expressed his thoughts almost immediately.

"Yesterday, I heard the words of Shaofu: On the 10th, when Shaofu was selling rice and people in the grain market, the people asked each other about 'buying Shaofu grain with three baht money'."

As she spoke, Liu Ying didn't forget to glance at Yang Chengyan, and then turned her head and looked at Xiao He with a little strength.

"Lonely has ordered Shaofu: Don't explicitly refuse to accept three baht of money, only prevaricate with insufficient color and weight, and don't accept three baht."

"Do you think that's okay?"

Seeing that Liu Ying almost didn't do the slightest foreshadowing, he said this sentence so bluntly, Xiao He was subconsciously stunned at first.

When he saw Liu Ying's gaze, there was no doubt about it, Xiao He finally raised his head with an uncertain face and bowed to Liu Ying.

"It's good to be disposed of like this at home······"

Seeing that Xiao He only said this sentence 'very good' without being salty, without the slightest intention of in-depth discussion of 'the circulation value of the three baht coins', Liu Ying only raised the corners of his eyebrows slightly.

looked at Yang Chengyan, and saw that Yang Chengyan also lowered his head hesitantly, and the faint smile on Liu Ying's face finally turned into nothingness in an instant.

"Xiao Xiangfei, still don't care about this?"

Asking this question in a slightly reproachful tone, Liu Ying's face sank, and she turned her head abruptly.

"In the first month of spring, I want to rectify the Changling Tian clan and shake the grain merchants in the central part of the country to stabilize the price of grain."

"Because of this, Lone went to Huitianzizhuang and was assassinated in Changling."

At that time, Xiao Xiang's strategy of calming food prices was similar to Xiao Xiang's: Lonely's strategy was too violent, which was tantamount to killing chickens and taking eggs; You can order the grain merchants in Guanzhong to sell rice in the grain market at the price of 2,000 yuan. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Ying's gaze when she looked at Xiao He was already full of grimness.

"Today, ten days have passed, and in the Chang'an Grain Market, there are still only a few houses selling the evaluated grain and rice, thinking that the people will eat."

Saying that, Liu Ying glanced sideways at Yang Chengyan again, and continued to say to Xiao He: "I also got more than 700,000 stones of grain from the Tian clan, 100,000 stones from Shaofu to repair canals, and 400,000 stones of grain and grass from Xiao Xiang's father's army. ”

"The remaining 200,000 stones are sold in the grain market for Shaofu, and today is only ten days, and there are less than 100,000 stones left."

With these words full of seriousness, he saw Liu Ying leaning his upper body forward a little and staring into the depths of Xiao He's gaze.

"On the next ten days, the grain and rice bento of Shaofu will be sold out, so the grain market set up will no longer have cheap grain."

"Dare to ask Xiao Xiang: In addition to the strategy of 'killing chickens and taking eggs', Xiao Xiangke also has another clever strategy to stabilize the boiling of grain prices in Guanzhong?"

"If you turn a blind eye, in the middle of the year and summer, the price of rice in Guanzhong will exceed 5,000 yuan, and there will be nearly one million households in Guanzhong.

"In this way, when the father and emperor pacify the dynasty, Zhao, and the class teacher return to the dynasty, alone, how to face the father and emperor?"

"Xiao Xiang, and the trust of my father, how can I explain?!"

After that, Liu Ying looked at Xiao He in his eyes, and there was no trace of respect!

The pair of eyes full of strength, which set off Liu Ying's still childish face, did not make Xiao He and Yang Chengyan feel the slightest abruptness······

Seeing that Xiao He almost wanted to speak, he finally lowered his head with shame, and Yang Chengyan sighed, but couldn't help but be a little curious.

"At home, what do you want to do to level the price of grain, so that the marquis, also known as 'killing chickens and taking eggs'?"

Without waiting for Yang Chengyan to come up with a reason, he saw Xiao He sigh with shame on his face, and solved all of Yang Chengyan's confusion.

"In today's Guanzhong, except for the family in the grain market, at the parity of 2,000 yuan of stone, the grain of the small government is sold to the people, and the price of rice in all other places is more than 4,000 yuan of stone."

"Minister, if you sit back and watch the price of grain continue to rise and do nothing, in the summer and May, the price of grain in Guanzhong will rise to the land of 6,000 or 7,000 yuan."

"But even so, the minister still thought that what the family said when he stepped forward······"

Speaking of this, he saw Xiao He shaking his head uncertainly, and gave up his hand to Liu Ying again.

"It is true that the family wants to sell grain at a low price in a small house."

"However, today's Shaofu has no grain and rice to sell, and the treasury is responsible for the requisition of His Majesty's army, and it is powerless to help the family."

"Even so, shouldn't the family use the body of a prince to commit banditry and robbery, and rob the grain merchant's rice to sell the people's food?"

Saying that, Xiao He was also a little emotional.

"Your Majesty has ordered: Jia people are not allowed to wear clothes, ride, and heavy taxes to humiliate and slander merchants, this is indeed the country of our Han."

"Ranchen dares to ask the family: If there is no businessman running in Guanzhong and Kanto, since it has been there, it is easy to go to the time, how should the world's wealth flow?"

"The Qi land, the Chu land, and the salt of the Jing land, how can they enter the customs?"

"And the rice grain in Guanzhong and the brocade silk in Shudi, how can it flow to Guandong and be used by the people?"

"If today, because of the boiling price of grain, the family forcibly robs the grain merchant's rice, and all the merchants of the Son of Heaven will not be all rabbits and foxes sad, and they will not be allowed to do business?"

said this in a serious tone, Xiao He finally insisted on giving his hand to Liu Ying.

"Minister, please think twice!"

"If it is not good, the family should also pay the money of the Shaofu, buy the rice of the grain merchants, and then sell it to the people of Guanzhong."

"In this way, the principle of combining wealth and goods will not damage the prestige of the family······"

Hearing Xiao He's words, Liu Ying's face did not change, but she sneered in her heart.

Buy grain from those grain merchants who inflate the price of grain, and then sell it to the people?

It's also a shame that Xiao He can say it!

- Nowadays, the price of grain in Guanzhong has been decorated by this group of street lamps and coaxed to the point of about 4,000 yuan per stone!

If you don't kill pigs for the New Year, do you want Liu Ying to suffer this dumb loss, buy it from the grain merchant at a price of 4,000 yuan per stone, and then sell it to the people of Guanzhong at a price of 2,000 yuan per stone?

Not to mention whether Liu Ying is so stupid, will she do this kind of loss-making business of 'changing hands and losing half', even if Liu Ying really wants to, there is no money!

——In the past ten days, Shaofu has sold 100,000 stone of grain, but it has only collected less than 20,000 yuan, and the remaining 100,000 stone can probably be sold for 20,000 yuan.

But these 40,000 yuan, the inventory of less than 10,000 yuan in the Shaofu can also buy back hundreds of thousands of stone grain from those grain merchants.

With these hundreds of thousands of stone grain, do you want to stabilize the price of grain in Guanzhong?

——There are more than 900,000 households and millions of people in Guanzhong, and the annual food consumption is at least 10,000,000 stones!

Just as you count the population of the entire Guanzhong, 100,000 stone of grain is not enough for these millions of people to eat for a day!

It's just that after a short moment of thought, Liu Ying looked at Xiao He and looked at him with a little cunning without warning.

"No money······"

"Hey, hey, hey·······"

"Shaofu, but there is 'money'······"

Slandered with bad intentions, but Liu Ying did not forget to make a 'tangled' look on her face, and in the end, she nodded to Xiao He with extreme 'difficulty'.

"What Xiao Xiang said is indeed reasonable."

"Lone also thinks that the grain in the hands of grain merchants should be paid for money."

"However, but only this, I am afraid that there may be profiteers with bad intentions, who want to continue to raise grain prices, and refuse to sell grain and Shaofu."

Speaking of this, Liu Ying finally nodded with a 'grim face', and looked at Xiao He's gaze with a faint hint of pleading.

"Please also ask Xiao Xiang to draft a decree to distribute it to Guanzhong;"

"- Whoever is a merchant shall not store more than 100 stones; If there is a violation, before the first day of the third month of spring (the first day of the new year), sell all the grain in the market. ”

"On the first day of March in the spring, if there are still households with merchant registration, they have privately stored more than 100 stones of rice and grain, and they have no stored grain, and for every extra stone of rice they hide, they will be fined four taels!"
