Chapter 156 Cui Mian's discipline

The delicate balance that was originally barely constructed by the three emperors of Li Yuan, Li Shimin, and Li Zhi was disrupted in Chang'an.

In the past, whenever the money disaster came, the big guy obediently accepted the exploitation, and waited for the matter to pass, and it was over, although everyone would suffer, but the person who caused the disaster would not do the thing to the end, and the looting would stop after a certain extent.

It's like cutting leeks, you will never dig up leek roots, which can be regarded as a kind of kindness.

This time, in the process of cutting leeks, someone actually began to resist, which is far more important to those people than to make money.

This is the reason why Yun Chu firmly believes that these people must fight with him in Chang'an.

I have to admit that under the condition that people are throwing money at Chang'an over and over again, the materials on the city of Chang'an are rapidly disappearing.

Needless to say, the grain has really become a bowl of copper coins. to the point of food.

After the price of grain rose to one hundred and fifty yuan in a bucket, the price finally stopped, but this kind of dissipation was not because Cui Mian was benevolent, but because there was no one who could sell the grain to Cui Mian, and such a price was definitely not something that ordinary people could get with a bowl of grain, but it needed to be traded in large quantities on the flowing water card in Qujiang.

And the quantity is carried out in a thousand quintals.

Therefore, in Chang'an City at this time, everyone cherishes food, and many people feel that eating is money.

Yun Chu needs to lead by example, and gentleness also needs to lead by example, so the food of the two of them has become very bad now.

Not to mention any meat on the table, even fine grains can't be seen, and now, even Li Si, who is the most picky, no longer shouts about eating meat, just hoping to be satisfied with a meal of leek and egg stuffed dumplings.

Of course, Cui Mian's so-called death is not the physical elimination of this kind of death, this method of killing Yun Chu, they have already tested it in Luoyang, and the effect is not ideal.

And they also have to guard against the terrible consequences after killing the tiger.

The result of Luoyang, they know, but they can't be sure that Yun Chu did it, but so many people have died, there must be suspicions of some people, right?

The elegance of the wealthy family lies in the fact that they hate to solve things with violence, and of course, this is because many times, they can solve very, very many things without violence.

At a time when everyone is hoarding food, meat has become incomparably precious, and the previously unimpeded access to yaks has recently been completely stopped, because Xu Jingye has raised the price to the point that even Yunchu can't afford it.

It wasn't until Yun Chu was holding his son Yun Jin and his daughter Yun Jin that he was taking a nap together, Yun Chu felt a pain in his arm and woke up to see it, and found that his daughter and son were holding his arm in their sleep.

Seeing the two children squirming their mouths, Yun Chu's heart was very sad, so a ploughing cow fell to death in the Yun family's farm......

The people of Chang'an City, who have long been accustomed to eating meat, will habitually sniffle when they pass by the two big canteens in Chang'an, but unfortunately, the familiar aroma of boiled meat is now gone.

Fortunately, there are always some coarse grains distributed in the market, which are not much, but they are enough for a family.

Yun Chu killed a thousand camels in one go, and the meat was put on the market, and although it was very expensive, it didn't take a day to disappear.

Needless to say, he was snatched away by Cui Mian, a rich man.

He didn't allow Yun Chu to give the people any hope.

The money in the hands of the people either bought grain early or was all bet on the house, so the coarse grain distributed by Fang Zheng every day became the only source of food supplement for the big guys.

The big families have long left Chang'an City, gone to the countryside, or returned to their hometown to eat, and they have a stronger ability to survive than ordinary people.

Fortunately, the officials of Chang'an and Wannian counties have chosen an extremely strong cohesion, and in this difficult period, they still follow the two county lords, and I believe that Chang'an City will definitely become the final victor.

Yun Chu set up a big pot in the county office, and half a cow was boiling in this pot, which was the cow that fell to death in Yun's farm.

Yunchu's ability to cook beef is naturally outstanding, and from early in the morning, the aroma of stewed beef wafts from the Wannian County Ya.

At noon, when the beef was cooked, Master Liu stood on the edge of the cauldron with a smile, put a small piece of beef on each official's dinner plate, and poured a spoonful of thick broth.

He kept cheering up the big guy and said: "Bear with me, everyone has eaten a lot of fat in the past few years, just take this opportunity to clear the stomach, and when this momentum passes, let's eat meat in a big bowl and drink a lot of wine." ”

The lower-level officials are still well-informed, and they know that this time the food shortage is not caused by natural disasters, but man-made disasters, and it is not that there is no food in Chang'an City, but that the food has been bought.

Since the grain is still in Chang'an, they are not too worried, and at present, it seems that the county can still maintain the rations of the people of Chang'an City, and when the county government can no longer afford it, they have a way to obtain food outside the plate.

Now, it's just that the county doesn't want to use those means.

There is a bite of meat to eat, it is very inspiring, everyone knows, after all the cattle of the county family fall to death, it is time for the county to break out, and at the time of the Austrian time, so many people outside the city who have no wine and meat to eat and have blue eyes will never continue to eat vegetarian.

When Lu Ting came to Wannian County again, he happened to meet Yun Chu, gentle, Di Renjie and the three of them were eating braised beef around a pot with millet buns, this pot of braised beef did not have much meat in it, more yams and taro.

After refusing Yun Chu's invitation to eat together, Lu Ting sighed and said, "Prince, this is not a way, you can't fight with Cui Mian with the well-being of the entire city of Chang'an City. ”

Yun Chu took a bite of braised beef, then took a bite of the millet steamed bun and chewed it slowly, and then said lightly: "Eat bitterness once, and you don't have to suffer this kind of bitterness in the future, it's very cost-effective." ”

Lu Ting said: "The help expected by the prince did not come, and the eight hundred miles you sent to Luoyang were refuted by the door before you arrived at the Yushi Tower.

And the prince's note to His Majesty, although it is in the hands of His Majesty, His Majesty does not have any expression, the prince, Cui Mian's hands have too much money and grain available, he would rather dedicate these money and grain to His Majesty, there is only one request, that is, it must not be sent to Chang'an, but can only be transported to the disaster area.

Even if you want to use the government to take advantage of it, it's impossible to take advantage of it. ”

Yun Chu soaked the millet bun and pestle into the broth for a while, and then took it out and ate it very sweetly.

Swallowing a large piece of beef, he said gently, "What does Cui Mian want?" ”

Lu Ting said: "Yunhou personally came to the door to apologize, and at the same time, one hundred and sixty-seven families were allowed to buy houses on both sides of Suzaku Street, and a house was 10,000 yuan, not two prices. ”

Yun Chu smiled bitterly: "For the sake of the people of Chang'an, I am willing to come to the door to apologize, but the houses on both sides of Suzaku Street are 120,000 yuan, and the price is not two."

You tell Cui Mian, don't forget, I also have a lot of copper coins in my hand, and when I have enough food, it will be his death. ”

Lu Ting then sighed and said, "Why bother, both sides will lose, and in the end it will be the people who will suffer." ”

Yun Chu sneered: "You tell Cui Mian, either take a huge amount of copper coins to exchange for the house on Zhuque Street, or get out of Chang'an City, and obediently go back there, Chang'an City, it's not for him to do whatever he wants."

You think that Your Majesty is watching Chang'an fall into danger and ignoring it, but you don't know that this is also Your Majesty testing your reality, once you return from Chang'an, when the time comes, it will not be what I Yunchu wants to do to you, but you will have to face punishment from Your Majesty.

After all, the people in Chang'an City are also His Majesty's subjects, and you think that a little food can change Your Majesty.

Lu Ting, sometimes I really think that your group of people are different from ordinary people, ordinary people can see that Your Majesty has endured the extreme of the wealthy family, but you don't know it, what is the reason? ”

Lu Ting seemed to be suffering from sighing disease, and sighed again: "The old man didn't participate, and the old man got a house with 100,000 yuan of real money."

What the prince said is right, Cui Mian will definitely die, but Cui Mian is not afraid of death, and it can even be said that Cui Mian was ready to be beheaded when he was doing this. ”

Di Renjie burst out laughing.

"A Longyangjun, and a childless and daughterless Longyangjun, can only cut off one of his heads, he is really not afraid of death."

Lu Ting said: "If Your Majesty wants to cut off some more heads, it is okay, and some people are willing to cut off their heads." ”

Yun Chu looked at the departing Lu Ting and said to Di Renjie, "Are you sure he is really a Longyang?" ”

Di Renjie nodded.

Cui Mian's every move, Di Renjie knows.

Yun Chu didn't know what method Di Renjie used, but he could actually get a Cui Zhuan person to help him keep an eye on Cui Mian.

Cui Zhuan is actually not a very good spy, but it is better to use him to target Cui Mian, because he is Cui Mian's scholar.

Cui Mian can't do without him all the time.

"You haven't seen Cui Zhuan before, as long as you see him, you will feel that it is understandable that men like men."

Di Renjie fell on the chair, crossed his hands on his fat belly, and licked his lips when he talked about Cui Zhuan.

Gentle immediately said: "Looking at Lao Di licking his lips, there is no need to describe how beautiful this man is."

The current question is that Cui Mian has bought more than 60% of the output of the cotton cloth workshop, resulting in insufficient cotton reserves, should we continue to allow Cui Mian and them to buy all the cotton cloth? ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: "The market is free, people are willing to buy those cotton cloths at a higher price, why not allow it?" ”

Di Renjie said: "Chang'an people have not lacked clothes to wear over the years, and if they don't make new clothes for two or three years, they can't die."

It's really not possible, and it's not that linen and coarse cloth can't be worn. ”

Said gently: "Those people buy everything, everything, it seems that they are really ready to buy Chang'an City."

The war for grain is over, and now we have to wait for the greedy grain merchants to bring grain through the canal, and we can use the excuse of repairing the canal waterways to cut off their retreat.

Also, are you really going to kill Cui Mian? ”

Yun Chu said: "In the future, we must build Chang'an into a forbidden place that cannot let those people make waves."

Cui Mian must die. ”

Di Renjie, who was flossing his teeth, took out a piece of meat from between his teeth, chewed it carefully and said indifferently after eating it: "This person must be eliminated by torture, not assassinated, let alone let him die inexplicably." ”

"Do you hate this man so much?"

"Yes, it's because of him that I even have to eat the shredded meat between my teeth, and before, I spit it out."

Yun Chu clapped his hands and said: "Then wait until we sell the last hole cards before proceeding, no matter what, we want to build Chang'an into a rich city, a rich city that ordinary people dare not enter." ”

Gently sighed and said, "What is the difference between your style and Cui Mian?" ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: "Naturally, there is a difference, I need a large group of people who value Chang'an as their life, I also need a group of people who are proud to defend Chang'an no matter what the situation, and I need a large group of people who are willing to live and die with Chang'an City."

Instead of a group of speculators, a group of people who go on when they see the benefits and run when they encounter danger. ”

Gentle smile: "So, the first batch of people who came in was actually a fertilizer that nourished Chang'an, right?" ”

Yun Chu smiled: "No, Chang'an City is not a demon cave. ”

Di Renjie said: "Actually, it's already a demon cave, isn't it?" ”

Gently sneered, "It's the new world." ”

No matter what these three people say, the various projects in Chang'an City are still proceeding step by step.

In July, when the weather was at its hottest, Yun Chu ordered the Xingqing Fang to be emptied, and also carried out a huge groundbreaking ceremony, and after the first vacant house was demolished, the price of grain in Chang'an City rose by six copper coins again.

Brothers, I am sick, suspected of influenza A, but I have no evidence, for I have no other symptoms except for bone headache and drowsiness, and I went to bed early last night, and slept twice during the day, and now I am yawning and crying, and my body tells me to go to sleep.
