Chapter 65: It was a game from the beginning, and we all hit the trick
Inside Kyoto.
The matter of grain bidding spread throughout the imperial capital.
Whether it is an official family or a family, everyone is looking forward to what price the two parties can offer.
In the palace of King Qin.
Liu Yanming didn't even go back to his own house, and went straight to King Qin's mansion.
Eight and a half million stone is indeed the highest price that Liu Yanming can offer, and he can't open the extra grain.
And Liu Yanming also understood in an instant what the empress wanted.
Want the real admission of the two princes, let them make a bid behind the scenes.
Just because of these four words to the world.
In the palace of King Qin.
Crossing the pavilion, Liu Yanming followed the steward of King Qin to the backyard, and at this moment, it was still the prince of King Qin who received him.
The latter seemed to already know what was going on in the imperial court, and in the face of Liu Yanming's arrival, the prince of Qin went straight to the point.
"Ten million stone of grain, this is the highest price."
The prince of Qin got straight to the point and gave the highest price.
Hearing this, Liu Yanming shook his head directly.
"His Royal Highness, 10 million stone grain is definitely not the food that His Majesty thinks, and I hope that His Royal Highness will mention it again for the sake of the overall situation."
Liu Yanming directly vetoed this price code.
The two princes entered in person, and 10 million stone grains were really not enough to see.
"Ten million is not enough? Can Your Majesty eat so much? ”
The latter frowned, grain is such a thing, for the people, half a two stones, but for them, in fact, they can press down the price again, and they really want to buy 10 million stone grain, and the price is equivalent to ordinary people buying 7 million stone grain.
But the prince of Qin didn't expect Liu Yanming to say such a thing.
"Your Royal Highness, haven't you understood?"
Liu Yanming sighed, he looked at the latter, his eyes slightly emotional.
"What does Liu Ge always mean?"
King Qin Shizi was slightly curious, he really didn't understand what the other party's words meant.
"With a peerless talent, assisted behind His Majesty, we have completely fallen into a trick, completely fallen into passivity, and we can't get out."
Liu Yanming spoke, his words full of helplessness.
walked from the palace to the Qin Palace, four quarters of an hour before and after, and in these four quarters of an hour, he also completed all the reviews and clearly understood that he was in a worrying situation now.
"Caught in passivity?"
"Is Liu Ge always joking? The first assistant of the cabinet, coupled with the authority of my father, fell into passivity in Great Wei? ”
The prince of Qin obviously didn't believe it, and even he felt a little ridiculous.
The first party of the Great Wei Dynasty, plus the regent appointed by the first emperor, the two are one, and they will fall into passivity? When you say it, everyone in the world will think it's ridiculous.
"The old man never laughs."
Liu Yanming sighed, but the reaction of the prince of Qin was also expected by him.
"Please tell Ge Laoming."
Seeing Liu Yanming's attitude, the latter put away his contempt a little and asked the other party seriously.
At present, Liu Yanming is no longer hiding and tucking.
"His Royal Highness, Your Majesty's move can be described as a serial plan."
"Changing rice to mulberry is a good thing in itself, Your Majesty also supports it, and she has been showing weakness, letting the old man take the lead and win step by step, and in the end, Yang Ning saw that there was no power to return to heaven, so he simply agreed."
"After deciding to change rice to mulberry, His Majesty delayed from time to time, in fact, to give us enough time to wait to go to Zhening Mansion to buy a large amount of fertile land, and from this moment on, we will be in the plan."
"Her performance is extraordinarily mediocre, she is deceiving us and others, there is a peerless master behind her, how much fertile land has been bought in Zhening Mansion, the old man does not know."
"You can count these officials under the old man, count your Royal Highness, count the local gentry family, count the friends and relatives who are related to us."
"I'm afraid that there will be more than one million acres, this is not our greed, but once the greed is released, it will be difficult to stop."
"In this way, the more fertile land that is bought and sold, the more passive we become, and finally at the critical moment, Your Majesty just lightly handed over the site selection right to Li Jie, and the situation was completely turned upside down."
Liu Yanming carefully reviewed everything, but he was too cautious, thinking that this was a game from beginning to end, but he was generally right.
The prince of Qin Wang became more and more silent the more he listened, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but ask.
"This is unlikely, changing rice to mulberry is indeed a good thing in itself, the treasury is rich, the people also have a certain benefit, and we can also get some benefits from it."
"Even if it was the first emperor, when he heard such a policy, he was greatly admired, if it wasn't for the first emperor, he was really not in good health, but I am afraid that it would have been implemented long ago."
He disagreed, because if this was the case, how terrifying was the empress's scheming, or how terrible was the person behind the empress?
Liu Yanming did not refute, but continued to speak.
"Changing rice to mulberry is indeed beneficial to the country and the people, but Your Highness should not forget that the reason why the Yang Party agreed was not because they could not resist, but because they had done a lot of tricks and wanted to engage in policies such as pornography."
"Although we also have a backhand, but the development of the situation is beyond imagination, let's say that in the past six months, the fields that can be sold in Zhening Mansion have been sold, but there are still some people who can buy fields."
"How did these fields come about? His Royal Highness the Prince should know better than the old man? ”
"The people behind His Majesty had long expected that such a situation would happen, so the right to choose the site was thrown out, and for a while, it made people panic, and the sale of good land in Zhejiang Ning Mansion has been suspended, and even some wealthy gentry have begun to sell their land at a low price."
"In this way, we will control the price of land, stabilize the people's will, and wait for the fierce competition between the two parties, and throw out the grain auction."
"The biggest problem of changing rice to mulberry is the food problem, although the old man has already contacted the surrounding four provinces, and even let the Jiangnan prefect leave five million stones of emergency food."
"But the sky is not as good as the people, no one can guarantee that at the critical moment, the grain from the land south of the Yangtze River can be transported to Zhening Mansion."
"If there is really any mistake, the chaos in Zhejiang-Ning Mansion will be a fatal blow to the entire Great Wei."
"So the grain auction is Your Majesty's last plan, and what she wants is definitely not 8 million stone grain, but 30 million stone grain."
Liu Yanming said the estimated number in the empress's heart.
"Thirty million stone grain?"
"It can't be."
"What to fight for? Elder Liu Ge, do you know what 30 million stone grain means? If we really gathered these 30 million stone grains, we would all go bankrupt. ”
King Qin shook his head directly.
30 million stone grain? Just kidding, right? Converted, even if the price of grain is bought at cost price, it will cost about 10 million taels of silver.
Who can afford so much silver?
Qin Wangfu couldn't take it out.
Hearing this, Liu Yanming shook his head again and said.
"His Royal Highness."
"If you can't take it out now, you have to take it out."
"The current battle is not a silver tael, but a battle for the hearts of the people."
Liu Yanming spoke, his tone was extremely flat, but his expression was full of firmness.
Now it's up to them to decide.
"What if I don't take it?"
The prince of Qin was a little angry.
Liu Yanming didn't speak, because he knew that at this level, it was no longer up to the prince of Qin to call the shots.
"How much grain does the elder think King Yan will come up with?"
At this moment, an old voice sounded.
It's the King of Qin.
