"Your Majesty, there is really nothing I can do now. If there is no more food, within half a month, I won't even be able to afford food!" Duan Lun gritted his teeth and continued to speak in a begging tone .

He can't back down no matter what today, otherwise, once the food is really cut off, the situation will be even uglier than it is now.

The others also understood that the current situation is quite serious. After hearing what Duan Lun said, they immediately knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

This can be regarded as their trump card!

All the people knelt on the ground, and as long as the emperor didn't nod, they wouldn't get up. It's impossible to ignore them at all, right?
Seeing that these people started cheating again, Li Shimin couldn't help but sneered in his heart.

Good guy.

When something happened to him, these people would hide as much as they could, and even if they offered to help, they would be rewarded generously, even threatening them for their own benefit.

Now that something happened, he had to use this rogue method to force himself to act.

It just doesn't make sense!

of course.

These are just the thoughts in Li Shimin's mind, but there is no expression on his face, on the contrary, he showed an extremely embarrassed look, as if he really started to hesitate because of these people's actions.

The people headed by Duan Lun were naturally paying attention to Li Shimin's reaction all the time.

Seeing that the emperor seemed to be hesitating now, he immediately intensified his efforts, and most of the people cried louder, as if if the matter was not resolved, they would die today!
"As the emperor, I must never change what I said. I said earlier that food cannot be used for any reason except for the people and victims of disasters!"

"It's only been less than half a month. Wouldn't it be equivalent to stretching out your hand to slap yourself in the face if you want to propose a change?" Li Shimin shook his head in embarrassment.

The words he said were well-founded, and these people could not find any reason to refute them.

Duan Lun and others also felt the emperor's determination. At this time, it seems that there will be no blood.

then.

Under the gaze of most people, Duan Lun took a deep breath and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, I also need food to tide over the difficulties!"

"But as His Majesty said, we are completely different from ordinary people, and our family background is quite strong, so we will definitely not ask for food from the court for nothing!"

"What price was sold at the beginning, and what price will be bought back now, His Majesty has never said that we will not sell the grain to us!"

"If it is solved by purchasing, there won't be any problems. I beg Your Majesty to show mercy outside the law and save the minister!"

His words are also quite sincere!
but.

Even at this time, Duan Lun also played tricks. He wanted to buy the grain back at the original price, which meant that he would not lose anything.

It's just that the food and money have changed positions, so that the loss can be stopped to the greatest extent.

the most important is.

There is nothing wrong with what I said just now, and the emperor will not let the emperor catch it.

But Li Shimin's next words completely shattered his fantasy!

"According to the previous method, it is absolutely impossible. At the beginning, I was in urgent need of food, so I bought it at [-]% higher than the market price. Now if I sell it to you at [-]% higher, what will people in the world talk about?"

"So, if you want to buy food, you can do it. I can agree to such a request, but you must only buy it at the current market price, not [-]% higher. If anyone makes such a request, I will definitely not sell it!" Li Shiminyi He spoke in a positive manner.

If someone who doesn't know the actual situation sees his state, he really thinks that he is putting himself in everyone's shoes.

But the actual situation now is that after so many things, the price of food has skyrocketed.

Not to mention [-]% higher than the market price, even if the current market price is completely followed, everyone will lose everything.

"Your Majesty, this..." Duan Lun became anxious all of a sudden.

"Why? Do you think this method is inappropriate?" Li Shimin interrupted him without hesitation.

at the same time.

He also acted as if he wanted to leave immediately, as if he had no patience to continue listening.

"No, no, I'm willing!"

"Then it's settled, I still have other things to do, just speak up if necessary!" Li Shimin laughed and left quickly, without giving these people a chance to argue.

The hall was completely quiet, and most of the people were ashamed. What the emperor did was tantamount to stealing money.

To buy food at the current market price, the more you buy, the more you will lose.

Such a transaction must never be done!

therefore.

After many people went back with monstrous anger, they insisted on remaining unmoved, but as time went by, the risk of running out of food was getting closer and closer.

These people are completely anxious!

The current situation is that if they don't pay for food, they will soon have no food to eat, but if they have to pay for it, not only is it equivalent to returning the money, but they will also pay a considerable part of it.

The shrewdness of the emperor is that he has said all the good things, and there is no problem on the surface, and everyone can't say that there is a problem with the current grain price.

otherwise.

Li Shimin will continue to investigate in the name of the court, and will eventually find them out.

At that time, even if they wanted to buy grain, they would have no chance.

After nearly half a month of entanglement, most people gave up resistance.

With so much money in the mansion, it can't be used as food. Now people are panicking. If the people under him fall down and the trees are scattered, the trouble will be even greater.

then.

More and more people began to buy food reluctantly, and Li Shimin was very happy to see this situation.

He asked people to move out the grain in the treasury and sell it in various ways.

However, the quantity is strictly controlled. If you want to buy more than the standard quantity, you need to pay a higher price to buy it.

despite this.

There are still people who are willing to pay a huge price to buy the grain back again.

After experiencing such a thing, the people of the family discovered that food is more useful than real money.

that's it.

While distributing the grain in the treasury, it was selling it to these people in the family at a high price.

The white money came back again, and it was much more than before.

The key is.

In such a process, Li Shimin gained more than these, and his prestige among the common people has reached its peak.

In just ten days, less than half of the grain in the treasury was sold, but the other side of the business could no longer store it.

In a sense, this is not just earning money from the aristocratic family, but more like cutting their flesh...
