He didn't really want to sell it to Li Zhen at such a high price, but purely wanted to dampen his spirit, so as not to yell at him again in the future as his biological father.

Second, it is better to take the opportunity to collect a wave of people's hearts and let those people know that the food they eat is developed by themselves.

The next day.

Li Zhen, who had been thinking about it all night, finally softened his tone.

"Emperor, although my father is usually strict with you, he also wants to train you to become a talent.

You see, now, I have proved that I am right, right?

If it weren't for my upbringing, would you have been able to develop these things? ”

The attitude has eased, but people are still so shameless.

Li Xingchen looked at him indifferently.

What is this old man's mentality?

"There is no need to worry about the food problems of your people. I don't want your money, but when the harvest is over, I'll send people to distribute it to all the cities, so that the people can have enough to eat. ”

Li Zhen frowned, don't? Is the rebel son a conscience discovered?

Immediately, he quickly figured it out.

"You want to win the hearts of my people? What a gloomy mind. ”

Li Xingchen said lightly: "If you are really a good emperor, why should you be afraid that others will subvert your status with just a few words?" You're so worried, can I understand that you're a dumb man? ”

"Presumptuous!" Li Zhen slapped the table again, and his hands were so strong that they were shaking and hurting.

"The emperor forgives the sins, the emperor forgives the sins!" The prime minister hurriedly got up and clenched his fists.

Now if you tear your face with Li Xingchen again, there will really be no room for maneuver at all.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Third Prince also took into account the lack of manpower in the imperial court, so he will send people from his side to solve the problems of people's livelihood on our side, this is something that only filial sons do, why do you want to make a big fuss, Your Majesty?"

The prime minister's eyes opened and said nonsense, which made Li Xingchen very satisfied, coughed lightly, and said: "Emperor Lao'er, as the king of a country, your brain is not yet flexible.

Rest assured, there won't be a lot of people to send people to, and you don't have to worry that we will repair the plank road in the dark. We will provide food free of charge until the end of the war. ”

The end of this war means something.

On the one hand, he resisted the invasion of the army, and on the other hand, he took advantage of the situation to subvert the Great Wei Dynasty, and he Li Xingchen wanted to become the new emperor of the Great Wei.

Li Zhen also knew his mind to some extent, but he was suppressed by him, and he was powerless to shout at all.

I'm going to say yes for the time being, and then I'll talk about solving this urgent need.

"Forgive me, a rebel, I can't anger my dragon, since you want to show filial piety, I will do your wish, and you will supply food."

Li Xingchen smiled.

"Another point, you must also know the reason for the food growth now, and you must severely punish such behavior, and put the shop owners who raise prices without permission in prison and await trial.

As for the major families of the suppliers, although they cannot directly punish the crime for the time being, they must also turn the world upside down on the grounds of rectification, so that their grain will be moldy at home. ”

Li Zhen's pupils shrank, how could he not have thought of punishing these unscrupulous profiteers with the strictness of the law.

However, there are only a few companies that provide grain, and if you rashly offend them, once the grain is out of stock, no matter how high the price is, you will not be able to buy it.

What's more, they are rich enough to rival the country, if they do too much, they take money and food to take refuge in Dajin, then Dawei will live in dire straits.

Now, as long as Li Xingchen provides food, he is naturally not afraid of those profiteers running out of food.

Not only that, but it is also necessary to block the major passes, send people to closely monitor the movements of several major families, and once they find that there is a treasonous move, they can justifiably behead all the doors, and the resources rush to the treasury.

"I have my own plans for this matter, so I won't bother you. I can't wait long for when the food will be delivered. ”

"It's not over, what's the hurry?" Li Xingchen's tone was not good, "If you are in a hurry, you can go back first." ”

"Hmph." Li Zhen glared angrily, "Prepare a cart full of sweet potatoes, I will return to the palace now." ”

Li Xingchen smiled.

The old man likes to eat sweet potatoes.

Not long after they left, one of the guards hurried in.

"Lord, lord, it's not good."

Li Xingchen put down the teacup in his hand.

"Panicked, what kind of system, what's the matter."

The guard took a breath before saying, "Didn't you let us go to the street last time to order those materials for your renovation of the City Lord's Mansion?"

There are very few ready-made goods in the shops, and they need to be processed in factories in various places and gathered together before they can be shipped.

However, yesterday, when the first wave of materials arrived, they were stopped by bandits, saying that they were asking for tolls. ”

"What?" Li Xingchen's face was full of coldness.

Although it is not a peaceful and prosperous time now, within the scope of his jurisdiction, someone has become a bandit, isn't this a slap in his face twice?

"Go, invite General Yuan and Yang Junshi."

"Yes, my lord."

The two arrived soon, and when they learned about the bandits, Yuan Wanshan was annoyed and angry, and immediately invited soldiers to serve the bandits' nest.

It is necessary to cut off the heads of the bandit leaders and hang them on the city walls, so as to uphold the hearts of the people, so that they do not have to do serious work in some people who are not long-minded, and they have to do such things that hurt nature and reason.

Yang Furen glared at him.

"How can it be as simple as you say? Go into battle and kill the enemy, you are the general. However, outside the battlefield, he is a reckless man.

This group of bandits is not an ordinary bandit, they are from the Great Iron Mountain.

The Great Iron Mountain is like a fortress, and the mountain is like its name.

In the past, the yamen sent troops to attack, but all of them failed.

The outside is almost impregnable, invulnerable, and there is no way to take the bandits inside.

They have a perfect mechanism, a clear division of labor, and special spies to find out the situation.

There are special people to do ambushes and set up obstacles at intersections in advance.

There are also special people who count and calculate how much toll is required!

The purpose is to blackmail! ”

"Are you sure?" Li Xingchen thinks it's quite interesting, the bandits' methods are so cautious?

Yang Furen nodded, "That's right, the terrain of Datie Mountain is similar to that of Fuji Mountain, no, it is more steep than Fuji Mountain, and there is only one small road that is only enough for one person to go up, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack."

There are not many people, only a few hundred, but with the blessing of geographical conditions, it is equivalent to invincible and invincible. ”

"Yang Furen, I think you are just growing the ambition of others and destroying your own prestige! There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved by a pair of fists, and if there is, then it can be solved with the fists of a group of people.

Regardless of his gold and silver mountains and big iron mountains, he has the talent and strategy of the lord, and he still leveled the mountain.

If you don't want to fight hard, it's even simpler, arrest those bandits who block the road and rob, and over time, won't the people of Datieshan be slowly arrested? If you can't attack the mountain, you can't catch people? ”

Yang Furen looked at him like an idiot.
