Li Shimin didn't have a good impression of these insects, and this hoarding incident almost all of those people were involved.

It's just that some people are more involved, and some people are less involved.

They did not commit a crime, the Tang Dynasty Law has not been repaired, and it is not stipulated that hoarding strange houses is a big crime, and even if there is this crime, but almost the entire Guanlong aristocratic class is involved in it, and it is impossible for him to kill them all.

That's what they rely on.

But what they didn't know was that although the emperor didn't kill them all, the Wang family could bankrupt them.

Without money, grain, and land, these Guanlong military aristocratic groups are still Guanlong nobles?

Without money and food to unite the hearts and minds of the people, his power will soon disappear.

Li Shimin led the ministers on a tour of the east, and to be honest, Luoyang's geographical location was more suitable than Chang'an as the imperial capital, because of the convenient transportation here.

However, it is easier for Chang'an to control the Western Regions, and at the same time, as long as the four stops are guarded, the degree of security is much higher than that of Luoyang.

Although there is a great drought in Guanzhong and Hebei, there are still many things in the world that he needs to deal with, especially the implementation of the new policy, after Wang Xuanjing left, a large number of things need him to deal with.

Empress Eldest Sun looked at the hill-like music, and her heart was very distressed.

Chang'an City, Changle Fang, here is the most famous gold vault in Chang'an City, whether it is the noble and strong, or the scholars from all over the world, as long as they come to Chang'an, they will inevitably come here to enjoy it.

At this time, in Changle Fang, one of the most prosperous restaurants was overcrowded, shoulder to shoulder.

The curfew in Chang'an City only forbade ordinary people, and as a noble, they could naturally enjoy it at will.

At this time, in Changle Fang, there is a hot scene, the aroma of fat powder is permeated, the staggered bargaining, talking and laughing, so lively.

"There is a great drought in this pass, and the price of grain is heavenly, if you let Your Majesty know that we are waiting here to make a fortune, what can we do?" One of them laughed.

did not take the imperial court into account in the slightest.

"Keep a low profile, even if the law doesn't blame the public, but if you jump too high, it's hard to guarantee that the court won't use you to make an example of you!" Another person next to him said, the surname of the person who spoke was Zhao, and he was from the Guanlong clan.

His family had a large amount of land, and they were all supporters of the successful usurpation of the throne by Emperor Wen of Sui and Yang Jian.

"Hehe, the imperial court doesn't stipulate that you can't hoard Qiju now, let alone kill me, can you conjure up food?"

"The soaring price of grain is due to the great drought in the north and the poor transportation, not because of us!"

Another merchant surnamed Yu said with a smile: "If you kill you, you can give an explanation to the people, and as for whether there is food or not, then we will talk about it." ”

In addition to these people, there are also Chen and other people who have also catered to them.

The next day, before dawn, the Mingde Gate was opened, and grain trucks were transported in from outside the city, and tens of thousands of stone grain entered the city, which soon attracted everyone's attention.

Sure enough, the imperial court soon announced that the people could buy a bucket of rice at a price of seventy per person.

The people who got the news sneered: "The imperial court still wants to use this way to control the price of grain, and we will directly give him tens of thousands of stones of grain." ”

"There is news from the government that each person is limited to one bucket, and if you want to buy more, it is a thousand dollars of rice."

"A thousand dollars is a thousand dollars, I don't believe that the imperial court can still conjure food!"

"Yes, eat them all!"

"There is such a little food in the hands of the imperial court, and if you eat them, we have the final say!"

Everyone shouted one after another, these can be said to be the richest people in Guanzhong Hebei, and these tens of thousands of stone grain were easily divided by them.

Wang Xuanjing finished reading the official document, and then handed it to the messenger next to him and asked him to send it to the emperor, and then picked up the news of Chang'an City and read it.

Wang Xuanjing sold most of the grain from the imperial court, and the vast majority of the people bought the grain at a low price.

The rest of the food was eaten by those nobles and heroes.

Wang Xuanjing looked at it briefly, and then asked the person next to him, "How many coins does the mint still have now?" ”

"In the past few months, the mint has not issued coins, and now 1.5 million guan has been saved." This money is not only in Guanzhong, but also in Longxi and Hebei Mint Supervision Supervisors. Originally, it was to make Chang'an and Luoyang prosperous as soon as possible.

As a result, there was a major drought, and the money was basically not released.

Wang Xuanjing said with a smile: "You go to Li Shentong and ask Li Shentong to come forward and lend out the money, whether it is a field, a manor, gold and silver and other metals, cloth, etc., you can mortgage it, and the interest will be calculated according to two cents." ”

"Third brother, isn't the interest rate of two cents a bit low?" Wang Xuanhe asked.

"Two cents is not low!" Wang Xuanjing shook his head slightly and said, he was not a loan shark, but he never thought that those people could repay the money.

As for the debt, Li Shentong is the king of the sect and has the support of the imperial court, who dares to repay the debt?

"Okay, let's just count it, fields, real estate estates, workshops, mines, etc. can all be mortgaged, anyway, they can't afford to pay it back when the time comes!"

Wang Xuanjing sneered. Aren't you going to make a fortune? I'll let you send it, give you a chance, and see if you can catch this pouring wealth!

As for running away with money, there are four stops in this level, where to run?

Wang Xuanhe thought about it, it was true, so he took out some of the money, and even the money in the imperial treasury, and took it together to lend.

The next day, everyone in Changle Fang immediately knew that Zong King Li Shentong had a large amount of money to lend.

The people who got the news were not surprised at all, in their opinion, this Li Shentong was not the owner of the money, and the money should have been made up by the royal clan and wanted a piece of the pie.

They don't care about these at all, and besides, this money is only two cents, and when the time comes, just give them some money, and with the addition of Zongwangmen, how will the emperor do it when the time comes? Their safety is a little more secure.

At the same time, a large amount of grain was transported into the city today, and the imperial court began to release a large amount of grain, this time in batches of tens of thousands of stone grain.

Soon the price of grain began to fall from a thousand stones of rice to a thousand stones, and even fell to the point of five hundred stones of rice, and everyone who got the news immediately sent people to sweep away the grain.

The price of grain soon rose again, and even tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass were transported by the imperial court, but after they were released, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, without a little wave.

Wang Xuanjing didn't pay attention to these at all, how much food is this?

I'll put as much as I can eat. The amount is large and the tube is full.

So in the eyes of those people, they felt that the batch of grain released by the imperial court was because there was not much grain, and they were eager to bring down the price of grain.

A large amount of grain was released, and those people also knew that they could not let the grain of the imperial court be left in the market, so they joined forces to continue to eat it.

The imperial court put 300,000 stone of grain, but in Chang'an City, food is still hard to find.
