Chapter 264: Reward and Punishment Order
"After working for so long, the food problem has finally been solved"
In a teahouse, Yun Xuan said slowly.
In order to solve this food crisis, Yun Xuan tried his best to use all means.
After being busy for half a month, I can finally go back to the palace to make a business.
"On behalf of the people of the country and the refugees, thank the four princes"
Zheng Ku didn't expect Yun Xuan to sell seventy percent of the grain of the two major trading houses at such a low price, and now the people no longer have to worry about food.
However, this also raises a new question, that is, what to do if the food is not exhausted.
However, Zheng Ku did not say this problem, it is better to not be able to eat food than not to have food at all.
"Lord Zheng, do you think the food crisis has been completely resolved," Yun Xuan asked rhetorically.
Zheng was stunned, and now the price of grain in the national capital has returned to four cents, and there are still countless grains in the treasury.
Why?
However, Zheng Ku knew that Yun Xuan would not be untargeted, but Zheng Ku couldn't figure it out, what else did he not do well?
There was grain, there was silver, and the two major trading houses did not have much grain in their hands, and the price of grain returned to parity.
"I don't know if I am humble, please forgive the four princes" After thinking for a while, Zheng Ku still didn't know what the problem was?
"You said that we bought back seventy percent of the grain in the hands of the two major trading houses, and now who has the most grain in the national capital?"
"Naturally, it's the Four Princes"
"The food is mine, not the people's, so what do you think will be the problem" Yun Xuan woke up Zheng Ku.
Zheng Ku still didn't understand Yun Xuan's intentions, why did Yun Xuan buy food?
To the refugees?
No, there is a lot of food in the treasury that has not yet been delivered to the disaster area, which means that the refugees have enough food.
A flash of light flashed in Zheng Ku's mind, and Zheng Ku felt that he remembered something, but it was as if he didn't remember anything.
"If we want the price of grain not to rise and keep it at a level acceptable to the people, then we must ensure that the commercial banks and rice banks in the national capital have sufficient food."
That's right, Yun Xuan seemed to be ashamed, Ouyang Yan fooled into buying the grain they couldn't sell, but in fact, everything was in Yun Xuan's calculations.
Only the government is qualified to eat so much grain, and Yun Xuan buys so much grain to sell them to the people.
Only in this way can Yun Xuan rest assured that there will be no retroactive person who will dismantle his own steps in the opposite direction, and finally re-trigger the food crisis.
"Your Highness's intention is to sell the grain hoarded by the merchant houses to the rice shop, so that the price of the grain will return to the hands of the people, not the merchants."
After Yun Xuan's pointing, Zheng Ku finally understood Yun Xuan's thoughts, just now Zheng Ku was worried that there was too much food to eat, and he thought too much about it for a long time.
"Sell grain to Xingyuan Commercial Bank and other rice stores in the national capital, all at the price of three and a half, if anyone doesn't buy it, threaten to warn, you should be very good at this kind of thing"
Wisps of multicolored sunlight penetrate the layers of leaves and fall to the ground, forming a dazzling golden spot that moves with the wind.
The capital is full of people, everyone is busy and fulfilled, and the people no longer have to panic about the food problem, and everything is back on track.
"Bang, bang, bang"
"Is anyone's family married, why is there no news at all?"
The sudden sound of gongs and drums made the people surprised, and they looked towards the source, not knowing why, and thought that their family had married a daughter-in-law.
Dressed in a gorgeous costume, Yun Xuan rode on a horse, his black hair was tied with a crown of blue gold, his slender body was as straight as a pine, and his handsome appearance revealed innate nobility and elegance.
Behind him were more than a dozen government soldiers, and four of them were beating there with gongs in their hands, and the sound could be heard from a long distance.
"What are the four princes doing, that direction seems to be Xingyuan Commercial Bank"
Some people know that it is Yun Xuan who sits on the horse, but this posture is incomprehensible to the people.
Many people followed behind Yun Xuan, wanting to see what Yun Xuan was doing with such a big battle.
"Xingyuan Commercial Bank, where is Guan Xin," a government soldier stood at the door of Xingyuan Commercial Bank and said loudly.
"The grass people have seen the four princes" Such a big battle made Guan Xin also a circle.
If he hadn't known that he and Yun Xuan were now in the same boat, Guan Xin would have thought that Yun Xuan had come to raid his home.
"Due to the floods in many provinces ahead, tens of thousands of fertile fields have been destroyed, and a large amount of food is urgently needed, resulting in a food crisis in the national capital.
In the face of food shortage and high prices, Xingyuan Commercial Bank was still able to abide by its original intention and sell grain at a reasonable price.
Let the people of the national capital afford to eat cheap food, be ambitious, practice far-reaching, work together, and work together in harmony.
Until the imperial court intervened to solve the food crisis, natural disasters were ruthless, and there was love in the world.
Under the instruction of his father, he was given a bronze medal of "honest businessman", and he also hoped that Xingyuan Commercial Bank would stick to his heart and forge ahead under the leadership of the boss.
Don't forget the original intention, you have to always"
After speaking, Yun Xuan dismounted and handed the bronze medal to Guan Xin with his own hands: "Congratulations to Boss Guan."
"Thank you to the four princes" Guan Xin wouldn't understand, if it weren't for Yun Xuan's move, let alone this brand, it would be unknown whether the housekeeper would still be there.
"Congratulations to the boss, congratulations to the boss"
The onlookers applauded the boss from the bottom of their hearts, and the applause was thunderous and enduring.
If it weren't for Guan Xin's constant selling of grain at a low price, the people would have to accept high-priced grain a long time ago and suffer oppression.
Looking at this bronze medal and the applause around him, Guan Xin was full of emotion.
This bronze medal was not easy to come by.
"Boss, please be able to be like this all the time, be an honest businessman, don't live up to your father's wishes, otherwise the noon gate will be your end"
Yun Xuan said with a smile, perhaps in the eyes of the people, Guan Xinde's bronze medal is a matter of course, and it is well deserved.
But Yun Xuan knew that Guan Xin's original intention was no different from those profiteers, but it was just a mistake, and he had to do it as a last resort.
Of course, Yun Xuan didn't care about Guan Xin's reason, Yun Xuan wanted everyone to know.
There is a reward for good deeds, and a punishment for bad deeds.
Hearing this, Guan Xin's eyes were deep, and he didn't know what Yun Xuan meant by this.
However, Guan Xin also knew that Yun Xuan was warning himself.
After the reward was released, the next thing was the punishment, and we chatted briefly for a while.
With a gorgeous turn, Yun Xuan rode out of here.
The national capital is a spacious area.
"What's the matter, why did these soldiers forcibly bring us here"
"You say, will it be to settle accounts with us?"
"No, it won't"
Just when Yun Xuan took people to Xingyuan Business Bank, he asked Lin Hu to send people to bring all the people who had written the guarantee.
"Phew, Phew"
"The Four Princes"
Fu Yin, Zheng Ku, and Lin Hu all made a fuss.
Yun Xuan dismounted, walked to a high place, looked at the people and said loudly: "People, this prince knows that you are very strange why you were brought here."
"There must be some people among you who are talking about it, thinking that there will be something bad, is it that this prince is looking for you to settle accounts after the autumn.
Just now, the prince personally sent the bronze medal of honest businessman customized by his father for the boss of Xingyuan Commercial Bank.
I believe you have also seen that in this food crisis, only Xingyuan Commercial Bank stood up.
They have not taken the opportunity to raise the price of grain, regardless of the lives of the people, and have been selling grain at a fair price, so that every ordinary person in the capital can eat.
Even if there is no food in their warehouse, the boss will send people to buy food from far away, so that every citizen can have something to eat."
This kind of selfless dedication and abiding by his heart is worthy of the bronze medal awarded to him by his father, and worthy of the applause and recognition of the people.
It is only fair that good deeds are rewarded, but that wrong deeds are punished."
Yun Xuan paused, looked at the people who were ashamed and bowed their heads in shame and continued.
"Your Highness knows that because you have no money and cannot afford to eat food, you are resentful, and under the bewitchment of those who have a heart, you have lost your mind and embarked on the road of protest and march.
Your Highness understands your intentions, but I can't accept your actions. Do you know that when you protest and march, you are no longer a common man, but a mob.
Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? Your children, your wives, your parents will be implicated and punished for your stupidity.
Such an act of disloyalty, injustice, benevolence and filial piety, His Highness did not expect that your group of people would actually believe in it and be taken advantage of. It became the biggest problem for the imperial court to solve this food crisis.
You may say that if the court had come forward to solve the problem earlier, we would not have been taken advantage of."
"Big mistake," Yun Xuan drank vigorously.
"The rice bowl is not low, do you know that the rice tank has no rice? If the price of food does not rise, how will the imperial court know that the people cannot afford to eat?
In order to solve this food problem, Lord Zheng worked tirelessly and couldn't sleep at night, thinking all the time about how to find cheap grain, so that the price of grain could return to parity, and the people could have something to eat.
Even Lord Zheng has promised you many times that he will transfer grain to the national capital in the shortest possible time, so that you can have food.
But what about you?
Do you know that protesting, wandering, coercing, when you learn the truth, you are being taken advantage of, are you really ashamed of your behavior?
When you took the guarantee to receive the grain, did you ever think that every grain you ate was the hard work of your father, the imperial court, Lord Zheng, and General Lin for you to eat cheap food?
When you eat the fragrant rice, you know that it may become your prison meal, and every grain of rice contains the worries and tears of your children, wives, parents, relatives and friends.
None of us can know, nor can we control, whether there will be a food crisis, but Your Highness is sure.
When this happens, my father will send someone to solve the problem as soon as possible, and will never let it go unattended and let the people starve.
And what you have to do is to believe in the officials, believe in the court, and believe in the father.
The father and emperor worked hard to govern the country and loved the people like a son, and would never let the people not afford to eat, even if there was only one person.
Now the grain in the national capital is under the command of my father and the actions of officials, and it has only been more than ten days.
The price was reduced from the usual money to four cents, and one person in the capital could be starved to death.
Ask the old people around you how long it took to solve the famine and how many people died of starvation.
Now that the Emperor has fulfilled his promises, and the officials have fulfilled his responsibilities, which of you has fulfilled his responsibilities?
If you do something wrong, you will be punished. This is the letter of guarantee that you wrote, and there is a red mark on it that you pressed, and you raise your eyes, do you remember?"
Yun Xuan asked people to put the box full of guarantees at his feet, reached out to hold a stack of guarantees, and held it high so that everyone could see it.
When many people heard Yun Xuan's impassioned and thought-provoking words, they lowered their heads one after another, ashamed, and tears flowed down their eyes.
It was only now that they realized that their mistake was so serious, it turned out that the emperor and the court had been silently caring, trying their best to find food, and did not give up on the people.
