Chang'an Township produces grain, which is a well-known thing. At the beginning, the people thought that the reason why the grain yield per mu in Chang'an Township was so high was because of the improved seeds, so they rushed to buy the good seeds one by one, and the yield per mu was indeed very high at the beginning, and the grain was abundant all of a sudden.

But then it was slowly discovered that with the sowing of improved seeds in each season, the yield became lower and lower, and in the end, the yield was scarce, which was not as good as the original grain seeds.

At that time, Li Jinong also discovered this, so he suggested to Li Zhao to expand production and no longer sell the first batch of improved seeds, in order to make Chang'an Township profitable.

If he could make money, Li Zhao naturally would not let it go, so he agreed to his uncle's suggestion to buy first-hand varieties from the store on a large scale, and then expand production.

After these years of development, Chang'an Township and its surroundings have become a large granary, almost comparable to the land of Bashu.

It can be seen that the grain output of Chang'an Township is high.

It is precisely because of this that the grain market in Chang'an Township almost occupies the entire Xianyang, which means that the rations in Xianyang are in the hands of Chang'an Township.

Naturally, the emperor also discovered this at that time, he couldn't let Li Zhao's family hold it up, so he let the Bashu grain settle in Xianyang, even so, the grain of the Bashu land could not compete with Chang'an Township, but Li Zhao did not mean to suppress it, so that it was maintained in a balanced degree.

In order to occupy the market for grain in the land of the Six Kingdoms, Li Zhao also asked Gao Fugui to lease fields everywhere to grow grain, and so far he has occupied a large amount.

And this trend is expanding, for no other reason, that is, Chang'an Township has a high yield of improved seeds, and in the case of the same investment, Chang'an Township occupies a huge advantage, and the land of Bashu and even other local grain areas want to compete with it, it is overstretched.

That's the advantage of good breeds.

No, when Li Zhao asked the housekeeper to stop all commercial activities, the grain in the market decreased rapidly, and the price of natural grain began to soar, and some grain merchants saw that the price of grain was rising every day, and who still sold the grain in their hands either sold it at a high price or hoarded it, which made the shortage of grain in the market even worse, and the price of grain soared faster.

It led to public resentment.

As soon as Zhisu Nai Shi finished speaking, one person stood up, it was the lieutenant in charge of the Gyeonggi guard, and the lieutenant had nothing to do with the price of food, but he wanted to say something, which really surprised everyone.

"Childe, don't let Li Zhao make a move, according to the minister, it was Li Zhao who caused trouble in Xianyang this time."

When these words came out, there was silence in the audience, and everyone pricked up their ears to see what the lieutenant said.

Li Zhao's trouble in Xianyang, it seems that he can't talk about it, because Li Zhaoren doesn't know where he is, and how to make trouble, even if it is trouble, there must be a movement!

"The minister's secret investigation knows that he secretly asked the business house to stop the food supply, resulting in a shortage of food in Fang City, so that there was a merchant Jia Tun grain, he is the culprit, the minister suggested that Li Zhao should be captured immediately, the business house should be confiscated, and the Xianyang crisis can naturally be resolved."

Oh!

When Hu Hai heard this, his eyes lit up, confiscating the firm? That's a good suggestion! At present, the firm has become the giant of Daqin, whoever gets it, who can stabilize the world, he is the crown prince, to stabilize the throne in the future, he has to rely on huge financial resources, and if you get the firm, why not worry?

This suggestion clearly coincided with his thoughts.

And he also hates Li Zhao very much, if Li Zhao hadn't been in the way, how could he have tampered with the edict with Zhao Gao, and how could he be punished by his father and the emperor, and he would not be free in the palace?

During these days of solitary confinement, he had enough of the torture, and his hatred for Li Zhao deepened day by day.

And the person who helped him succeed said that Li Zhao had to be eliminated, and at this moment, it seemed that the opportunity had come.

"This fang is so hateful, and the emperor still favors him so much, hateful, yes, yes, lieutenant, you immediately order someone to capture it and confiscate the firm."

"No!" The lieutenant immediately agreed and was about to step out of the hall, but was stopped by a loud shout, "Wait! ”

The person who spoke was Feng Zheng again, and it seemed that among so many people present, he was the only one who could speak for Li Zhao.

Out of the ranks, he waved his hand at Hu Hai, and said: "Childe, this matter must not be allowed, if you really do this, my Great Qin will fall into a place of no return." ”

Before Hu Hai could speak, the lieutenant turned around and questioned Feng Zheng, his eyes completely lacking the respect of the subordinate for Shangqing, and some were angry.

"Doctor Yushi, what do you mean by that? Capturing Li Zhao to solve the current food crisis, this is for the benefit of the people, is to ask for the people's life, how can there be no reason for the catastrophe? ”

Hu Hai nodded, he also felt that Feng Zheng's words were a little too protective of Li Zhao.

"Cai, lieutenant who understands public opinion, too, go and do it immediately."

Hu Hai waved his hand and responded without thinking, but Feng Zheng stopped him, and this time he could be regarded as fighting.

"Think again! Childe, the minister has three questions, if he can answer them, the minister will never stop them, but if he can't answer them, he still hopes to listen to the minister's words. ”

Hu Hai didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Feng Zheng's gourd, but seeing that Zhu Qing had no objections, he waved his hand impatiently and said, "That's it, you say." "I don't even bother to say honorific titles.

Feng Zai was calm, swept his eyes at the ministers, and said loudly: "First, if Li Zhao is captured, what will happen to Shanglin Yuan?" What's more, Li Zhaoren is in Shanglin Yuan, and he can enter and capture him with the lieutenant's guard? It must be known that there are 2,000 elites in Shanglin Yuan, which is Li Zhao's army. ”

Everyone bowed their heads slightly, and the lieutenant immediately froze, his face changed in shock, he was too impatient just now to consider this problem.

Not to mention two thousand elites, even one hundred elites he is helpless.

Seeing that no one responded, Feng Zai knew that everyone couldn't answer, and then said: "Second, if the trading house is confiscated, where will the food come from in the future, and where will all the things in the trading house come from?" Could any of you make it? ”

"This." Zhuqing was silent again.

Hu Hai's raised hand was even more stunned in mid-air, and the mouth that wanted to open couldn't be closed.

Indeed, everything in the trading house was made by Shanglin Yuan, and it was a novelty, without Li Zhao, could these things still be made? Even if they could, would the people who went to the forest garden obey? Impossible, as far as they know about Shanglin Yuan, Li Zhao has become the god of Shanglin Yuan, and no one can move them.

No one could answer the two questions, and Feng Zheng didn't want to say the third one, because he knew that everyone had thought of the key point, and Li Zhao couldn't move.

"Please think twice, the minister believes that if you want to solve the crisis of food prices, only by announcing Li Zhao to the dynasty is the right way, and only Li Zhao can save the people."

The lieutenant did not leave again, he was silent, Hu Hai was also silent, and everyone was silent, because Feng Zheng analyzed it very reasonably, and Li Zhao couldn't move.

At present, the only danger of food prices is Xuan Li Zhao.

Hu Hai shook his head, his eyes wandered among the Qingqing, and finally fell on one person, but when he saw this person bowing slightly, he said, "That's it!" Tomorrow Li Zhao will be proclaimed. ”
