Chapter 402: Food Prices Plummet
"If the officials have no time, forget it."
Ju Huan lowered his head again with a look of disappointment.
"I'm not flawless, I'm too excited!"
Jiang Chen saw that Ju Huan was quite resentful, so he raised Ju Huan's chin with an affectionate face, and said lightly, "My husband was thinking just now, should I teach Huan'er to learn all night, and I won't take leave tomorrow!"
"Where is that exaggerated? Is it true that the officials regard the concubine as a big worm that can eat people?"
Ju Huan immediately turned from worry to joy, expectation, and nervousness, and couldn't help biting his red lips shyly.
"Of course! After the enlightened monk accepts the disciples, the first thing he will tell the disciples is that a beautiful woman is a tiger, and you must avoid it when you encounter it! And the song to prove it!"
Jiang Chen nodded matter-of-factly, looking at Juhuan's concave and bewitching figure, he had already made the decision to devour the tiger with his body and release his descendants, so it was not a breach of promise.
"The officials are making things up again, why have the concubines never heard of it?"
As Ju Huan spoke, he looked at Xun'er and Ping'er uncertainly.
"Slaves and maids haven't heard of it yet!"
Xun'er and Ping'er shook their heads with a smile, as long as Jiang Chen and Ju Huan were in the same room, they would become roommates, and they would no longer have to worry about the future.
"Don't believe it, do you? Okay, when I sing it, I'm going to give you a spank each, as punishment for you to suspect me!"
Jiang Chen looked at the three girls with ill intentions, and then sang: "The little monk went down the mountain to fast, and the old monk explained: The woman under the mountain is a tiger, and you must avoid it if you meet it!"
Walking through village after village, the little monk wondered why the tiger didn't eat people, and it looked quite cute?
The old monk quietly told his apprentice, such a tiger is the most powerful, the little monk was so frightened that he ran away, master... Bad, bad, bad, the tiger has broken into my heart~ Come on!"
Poofโ
"Hehehe......"
"It turns out that there really is such a song?"
Ju Huan, Xun'er, and Ping'er laughed so hard that they almost couldn't breathe.
"Of course, now you know I didn't lie to you, right?
In order to make you remember it for a long time in the future, the family law will serve!"
Bang Bang Bang โ
After Jiang Chen slapped each of the three girls lightly, he laughed and ran out.
"Ah, ...... you, official?"
Ju Huan and the two beautiful maids were so ashamed that their pretty faces were dripping blood, and after looking around nervously, they lifted their skirts and chased after Jiang Chen.
While laughing, the three girls and Jiang Chen came all the way to the main hall.
Zhang Yueniang was discussing Liu Mingyue's marriage with Aunt Liu, and when she saw this, she couldn't help but smile and asked, "Yo, official, what's wrong with you, Sister Huan?"
"Madam, the official is he...... He sings to choreograph me!"
Ju Huan stepped forward to hold Zhang Yueniang's arm with a close face, and then hummed the crooked song that Jiang Chen sang just now, but he didn't say a word about Jiang Chen's coming from Master Li.
"Sure enough, it's arranging people, how can a monk sing this kind of song?"
Zhang Yueniang and Liu *** couldn't help but cover their mouths and roll their eyes at Jiang Chen.
"The so-called world is unpredictable, and there are times when the monks who have attained the Tao can't help it! For example, Xuzhu's father Fuhu Arhat, isn't it a misstep that turns into a thousand hatreds?"
Jiang Chen shook his head with emotion.
"What Tiger Arhat?"
"Did he make up this song? Tell us about it! We love to hear your stories!"
Xiang'er and Cui Niannu immediately came over with small faces.
"Well...... Not bad! This song was made up by Fuhu Arhat to educate Xuzhu! The story starts with the Battle of Yanmen Pass......
Jiang Chen took advantage of the dinner time to directly give a short story to the girls.
Then he was hooked into the hot spring bath by Juhuan's flattering eyes, and he originally wanted to be reserved, and first taught Juhuan to learn how to plan.

After Ju Huan, who was regarded as a perfect S-shaped comic figure, changed into a swimsuit he designed and put down his hair, Jiang Chen was directly stunned:
"Huan'er, you're so beautiful when you put your hair down!.
I also knew you were in good shape, but I didn't expect it to be so perfect! Did you strangle it with a cloth before?
Why is it all swollen like this? Does it hurt? Come, rub it for you!"
"Ah, official......"
Ju Huanjiao snorted, nervous and shy.
She had always been worried that Jiang Chen would dislike her "tall and strong", but she had to accept her because of Empress Zheng's face, and now seeing Jiang Chen's reaction, she finally settled down.
hugged Jiang Chen's neck tightly, and was reluctant to let go anymore.
As a result, Jiang Chen on the second day really failed to go to the early dynasty!
However, he arranged another thing, that is, borrowing the grain stores of the Zhu family, the Zhang family, and the Gao family, selling grain on a large scale, and setting the price at thirteen wen and one liter.
The people were afraid that the food in the royal granary would be limited, and they would suffer a loss if they bought it late, so they immediately rushed to buy it.
Wang Zhongyu, Kong Duanyou, Chen Zixi and others started even faster and more ruthlessly!
While instructing his subordinates to buy a large number of them for the people, he also scolded viciously: "Damn Jiang Chen, don't you want to live? What's in it for you to keep food prices down?"
"That's it! What's going on with the officials? Why would he be allowed to do such nonsense? Aren't you afraid of wasting all your food reserves?"
The wealthy families are very puzzled.
Cai Jing even tried to find out Song Huizong's tone from many aspects, but unfortunately he didn't find out anything.
Uneasy, he stopped Cai Qian and his cronies' grain collection, directed all the responsibility and authority to Wang Zhongyu, and directly let Cai Qian stay out of the matter.
Wang Zhongyu didn't know that the danger was approaching, so in order to see Jiang Chen's jokes, he took out the coffin, and other families were not much better, and even the Kong family began to transfer money from the bank.
After a lot of money was poured in, the day's food was sold out before closing in the afternoon.
This made Wang Zhongyi, Chen Zixi and others secretly relieved, and they were about to drink two cups to celebrate, but they didn't want to receive a shocking news: Yuqing Villa shipped out a large amount of grain, and bluntly said that it was enough to buy, how much it wanted.
"How is this possible?"
"Jiang Chen, where did he get so much food?"
"The grain that the Zhu family sold to the Royal Chamber of Commerce should have been sold out a long time ago, right?"
This time, everyone was stunned!
Chen Zixi and other people who hoarded a large number of grain and ordinary people also realized that something was wrong, and the people who queued up to buy it the next day took a wait-and-see approach.
Seeing that no one had come to buy it, the shopkeeper of the Limen Grain Store directly lowered the price of grain to 12 wen with a stroke of the pen.
"What do you mean? Why did we drop the price as soon as we finished buying?"
The steward of the Wang family couldn't help but be angry.
The onlookers were also full of anger!
"There's no way, there is too much food in Yuqing Villa, and now the rest alone is enough for the people of Bianjing to eat for three months.
It is said that a large amount of grain will arrive in Bianjing soon! If I don't sell it again, I'm afraid that no one will buy even ten cents a liter!"
The steward sighed worriedly.
