Chapter 425 - Stabilizing Food Prices

The drought gradually drought, and the various actions of the imperial court were also seen by the Qiantou leaders, even if the drought came, it did not cause much panic.

In the past few years, every family has saved a lot of food, and there is no need to worry about starving to death, and the imperial court has also mobilized so much food and various daily necessities, and these things have been registered in the newspapers.

The pacification of the imperial court is still very useful, what should the leaders of the Qian, they are all trying to prepare more things, and strive to survive better.

The movements of the leaders, Ying Zheng looked at the report sent by Jinyiwei, and his eyes flashed with satisfaction.

It's still the daughter who knows how to engage in these things, where the people's hearts are, which makes those Qiantou have so much trust in Daqin.

The Qian's leaders trusted Daqin so much, and Daqin naturally couldn't let them down.

"Li Si, pay attention to the prices of Daqin, don't let the prices of various materials rise too much." Ying Zheng looked at Li Si.

"The minister has already attracted people's attention." Li Si said seriously, if anyone is at this juncture, he will not be polite.

"Let the county lieutenants everywhere pay more attention, lest anyone take advantage of this time to stir up people's hearts or cause unrest."

Ying Zheng's arrangements continued one by one, in addition to paying attention to various places, he also began to attach importance to the news in the newspaper, and no one was allowed to put out some messy news at this time.

At this time, whoever dares to make trouble, then take who to open the knife.

After these orders were arranged, Ying Zheng began to inquire about Zhao Qingrui's current situation, his daughter is now pregnant, and he is really not at ease if he doesn't receive news from her every day.

Li Si and the others don't know Zhao Qingrui's situation for the time being, but they only think that the Emperor Taishang attaches great importance to His Majesty, after all, His Majesty is now the king of a country.

-----------------

The full amount of grain was transported to various places, and some old grain was released from the warehouses of the imperial court, and the price of these old grains was much cheaper than that on the market.

In the beginning, there were some merchants who fished in troubled waters and wanted to take advantage of this time to stock up on a little food.

It's just that when they saw the steady stream of food sent by the imperial court, they all stopped in time.

In the past few years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and they are a little afraid to imagine how much grain has been saved in the granary of the imperial court.

The price of the old grain sold by the imperial court is about five cents less than that on the market, and even if it is old grain, it still makes the Qiantou very happy.

The old grain of the imperial court has only been put for a few years, and it has not become moldy, and it is very well preserved, and it is impossible to see that it is old grain without looking carefully.

Moreover, the most important thing is that the price is cheap, and they have bought a lot of them to save.

"It's still the current Great Qin, the imperial court has stored so much food, we definitely don't have to worry about being hungry in the future." A man carried a bag of wheat and went home with people from the same village with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Yes, Daqin has ended the war, and Your Majesty has found so much high-yield grain, with this purchase, there is no need to worry about it this year." Others quickly chimed in.

Such a day is like a dream, and this is all the credit of His Majesty.

Go back and say goodbye, I hope that Your Majesty and the Emperor can live in good health.

This is happening everywhere.

Daqin's huge grain reserves forcibly caused the price of grain on the market not to rise, not to mention, and even reduced the price a lot.

Those who benefit are the heads of the Qian, and the heads of the Qians are very happy.

I had food in my hand, and I didn't panic in my heart, and the panic on my face when I noticed the drought before, now it has almost disappeared.

In addition to selling grain, Yingzheng also asked people to go to these places and dig some more wells.

Try to keep the farmland irrigated, and if the water is really not enough, at least keep the leaders with water to drink.

Zhao Qingrui couldn't hear the simple wishes of the Qiantou leaders, and the convoy walked on the grassland, and the situation on the grassland was also a bit bad.

The rainfall in the grassland area is less than that in the Central Plains, and this year's drought in the Central Plains has led to precipitation in the grassland area

Less.

She has to pay more attention to this side, she doesn't want to have rebelled against Daqin before she has raised these people.

Zhao Qingrui told Ying Zheng what he had discovered, and asked him to mobilize some food here to stabilize the people here.

Ying Zheng did not object, if these people rebelled, it would not be a good thing for Great Qin.

The demand for land in the grassland is not as good as that in the Central Plains, as long as they raise more cattle and sheep, they can make a lot of money, and the demand for cattle and sheep in the Central Plains is still very high.

Ying Zheng looked at the grain dispatch he approved, and every time he covered the jade seal, he was a little trembling, fortunately, Daqin had saved enough food in the past few years, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to withstand such a toss.

The grain currently mobilized accounts for one-tenth of the total grain stored in Daqin, and Ying Zheng still feels a little trembling.

These are grains that have been stored for a few years, and if they are released like this, he will die of distress.

With so much food, how many troops can be raised.

The number of soldiers on active duty in Great Qin has reached about 1.5 million, and these soldiers are scattered on the border of Great Qin, guarding Great Qin.

With such a huge army, it is definitely enough to defend Great Qin, and Zhao Qingrui has no intention of increasing it for the time being.

Every year, some soldiers are dismissed, and some new recruits are recruited, and the treatment is preferential, and after retirement, the officials in various places are given priority in recruitment, and the factory also has a lot of preferential treatment for retired soldiers.

At present, Zhao Qingrui's various requirements have been implemented, and there are no problems.

The army's expenditure was the most in addition to education, and they did not disappoint Zhao Qingrui, and the army of Great Qin, even if it was only a garrison of about 10,000 people, could completely deter the local reactionary forces.

However, Ying Zheng's idea is still a little different from Zhao Qingrui's, Daqin won the world by fighting.

Zhao Qingrui called him back from the Peacock Dynasty, and there were not many opportunities to go to the battlefield to take a look.

Seeing the grain scattered like flowing water, his heart felt as uncomfortable as if it had been cut by a knife.

In addition to food, money was also spent.

Zhao Qingrui knows all these things, and she also knows them in her heart, and these are all necessary expenses.

Besides, those old grains have been put for a few years, and if they don't take them out to eat, they will be spoiled, and taking them out at this time can not only alleviate the current crisis, but also make a profit, and also gain a good reputation, killing three birds with one stone, it is worth it.

There have been a few rains in the south this year, and the water level in the rivers has not dropped much, so it is not much of a problem to survive this year.

The southern side will not have much impact, but the northern side is a little serious, and there has not been a drop of rain for more than three months.

Yingzheng sent people to dig wells in the past, and they had to dig about half as deep as before before to have water.

Thinking of these situations, Zhao Qingrui became even more worried.

I just hope that in the most difficult time, those anti-Qin elements will not make trouble.

Although it has been cleaned up several times, the anti-Qin elements are still active in various parts of Great Qin, and they can't be killed.

After Zhao Qingrui finished reading the report, he threw these on the desk and lay on the rocking chair, Shang Lian and Dun Weak had already gone to deal with the officials here, and in two months, they would be able to get to Lu Pheasant, Zhao Qingrui had some expectations.

The future queen of the Han Dynasty, even if her son is so wasteful, she can still support the entire Han Dynasty, which is an important minister she is optimistic about in the future, and she needs to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

The temperature is getting higher and higher, even if there is ice in the room, Zhao Qingrui still feels hot and impetuous.

As the weather got hotter, the speed of the convoy slowed down quite a bit.

After the speed of the convoy decreased, Zhao Qingrui was still not idle every day, and the affairs on this side of the grassland, except for the fact that she did not come forward in person, the things on this side were handled by her personally.

"Your Majesty, the officials here want to see you, and the ministers think they seem to have found out." Shang Lian talked about what she encountered today.

"Nope." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.

"However, when the ministers look at them, they all want to forcibly break into His Majesty's residence." Shang Lian said with a headache.

At that time, the situation was a bit intense, and some people even pointed the finger at her and Don Weak, saying that they took advantage of His Majesty's serious illness to control His Majesty and so on.

One by one, they were righteous and awe-inspiring, wanting to forcibly break into Zhao Qingrui's residence, in the name of caring for the emperor.

If it weren't for the army, those people would have really broken in.

Shang Lian just briefly talked about the situation at that time, and Zhao Qingrui had already guessed the scene at that time.

"Okay, they want to force the palace, let Dun weak let me carefully check all the people here." Zhao Qingrui sneered.

I haven't shown up for a long time, and some people have other thoughts.

Is this the local indigenous anti-Qin forces, or is it a temptation behind the remnants of the Six Kingdoms? Zhao Qingrui thinks both are possible.

If these people are aware of their physical state, there are many people who want to make trouble while she is weak.

In the days of pregnancy, she wants to live a little more peacefully, or strangle all dangers in the cradle.

If there is no problem with these people, then continue to appoint, if there is a problem, then replace them, and some people are willing to take the position.

Jinyiwei's current infiltration in various places didn't take long to find out the detailed information that Zhao Qingrui needed, and now Zhao Qingrui has also started again.

After reading the news sent by Jin Yiwei, Zhao Qingrui sneered, "There are always people who don't have long eyes, and there are even people who surprise me, send this information back to my father, and let my father deal with it."

Zhao Qingrui's sneering voice made his heart tremble, Your Majesty is angry.

"No, the minister will send the information back." He said respectfully, he could already imagine the scene of the First Emperor's furiousness.

When the pause was gone, Zhao Qingrui looked at the quarterly summary sent by the Ministry of Industry again.

It is mainly about the construction of the railway station and the construction of trains, and a train has been built that can be used for operation, but the train tracks have not yet been laid.

After the train track is laid, it can be reached in two days from Xianyang to Lingnan, and there is no need to tire the horses to death.

Seeing these news, the displeasure on Zhao Qingrui's face dissipated a lot.

It's so nice to see the train running soon.

As long as there is a train, it will definitely be able to drive Daqin's economy and population flow, although the population flow is not easy to manage, but this is also to make Daqin better.

After the train to Lingnan was completed, the route to Liaodong County began to be opened.

Thinking of Daqin, who would become more lively in the future, Zhao Qingrui was sincerely happy.

In addition to the good news from the Ministry of Industry, the farmer also brought a lot of good news to Zhao Qingrui, and the things that Sui Shicong brought back had a lot of spices in them, and there were also a lot of crops that could be grown in Daqin.

Although the specific value of these things is not clear for the time being, as long as there are one or two things that can enrich Daqin's life, this is earning.

Hearing these good news, the haze in Zhao Qingrui's heart has dissipated a lot, it's really good.

Jinyiwei's news was quickly sent back to Xianyang, Yingzheng was a little puzzled, and he didn't understand why his daughter's rush to send the news back was suddenly so urgent, or if something big happened to her girl.

Thinking that his daughter might be in danger, Ying Zheng's heart tightened, and he hurriedly opened the envelope.

There was a lot of content on the letter, several pieces of paper, and after Ying Zheng read it, his face was completely black.

"Come on, go and call all the princesses and princesses in Xianyang to the widow." Ying Zheng's face was gloomy, and his face was about to drip.

"No." Zhao Gaoxin also trembled, since the abdication of Emperor Taishang, he has been cultivating his self-cultivation, and he rarely loses his temper.

Now even if he takes over state affairs again, he is rarely angry, and the affairs of the court and the six Shangshu are discussed, and those things do not make him angry.

Today, I'm afraid those princesses won't be better.

Exactly what they are

What did you do? It actually made the Emperor so angry.

After a while, all the sons came over.

Ying Zheng looked at them with a cold face, although he didn't value these children as much as Zhao Qingrui and Fusu, he didn't lack anything about them.

"Meet my father."

"Now you are not small, the widow thinks that he has not treated you badly, after Qingrui ascended to the throne, although the treatment of the clan has been reduced, but you also have more opportunities for development, and she has never treated you badly." Ying Zheng said lightly.

"Father, what's wrong with her?" Gongzi Jiang Lu asked cautiously, his father's face is not very good now.

I heard that after the little sister went on patrol, she got sick because of the water and soil adaptation, and she is still recuperating, and Jiang Lu is a little worried.

"Qingrui is fine, it's you who have something to do, Daqin has never treated you badly, Qingrui even restarted the division and promised to give you a fief, now that she is sick, someone is starting to emerge, is it when the widow dies?" Ying Zheng glanced at Jiang Lu, and then his gaze fell on the others.

In the past few years, and Zhao Qingrui has been sick for so long, some people are starting to move.

Some people are dazed, some people are hunched their necks.

"Great Qin will only be Qingrui's, your careful thinking is better to collect it for the widow, otherwise the widow will come to cut the sect in person." Ying Zheng was a little disappointed and did things, but he didn't have the courage to stand up.

If he had the courage to stand up and admit it, Yingzheng would still be able to look up to him.
