Chapter 454
Although Mr. Liu said that it was because of Goudan that the reputation of the academy was greatly increased, and the academy gave it a reward.

But Zhou Aniu didn't think so, he thought that Lin Xuan took care of their family specially, and sent money to their family in a different way.

"Do you think Mr. Liu will be seen by others when he comes?" Shen Yue'e said worriedly.

After all, Zhou A Niu was a soldier. Although he didn't have much education, he had seen the world. He heard the words and said, "It's cold now, and there are not many people outside. Not many people will see Mr. Liu coming."

"There aren't many people, so there are still people who saw it? What do you think if someone is after our house?" Shen Yue'e said worriedly.

She wasn't afraid that the people in the Zhuangzi would know, after all, the rent on their Zhuangzi was not high, and sending their children to college could reduce the rent a lot, making life easier.

She was worried that it would spread and attract the attention of other villagers.

Life in some surrounding villages is not easy.

"Don't worry, someone must know that Mr. Liu is here, but they probably don't know what Mr. Liu is doing here, otherwise they will definitely follow to watch the fun." Zhou Aniu said.

Shen Yue'e thought about it, and it was indeed such a reason, so she was relieved.

"I'm going to hide the money."

After Shen Yue'e hid the money in the inner room, she came out and sat in the stove, picked up the fabric and continued to sew clothes.

"You said Hou Ye said to let Er Ya go to study medicine, why has there been no movement for so long?" Shen Yue'e said.

Erya was also sewing clothes, and when she heard that the needle in her hand froze, she almost pricked her hand.

"Mother, don't worry, the hospital has already been built, and it's just a few miles away from our house. Haven't you seen it before?" Goudan said.

Shen Yue'e was taken aback for a moment, and said, "You mean that newly built very impressive house by the river not far away is the hospital Lord Hou mentioned?"

Goudan nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. Not long after it was built, my sister should be able to study medicine next year."

"That's good. When Erya goes to study medicine, our family will only pay [-]% of the rent next year." Shen Yue'e laughed.

Their family had to pay [-]% before, Lin Xuan waived [-]% for the whole village, and [-]% for helping potatoes and Goudan study, they only need to pay [-]%.

Next year, I'm not sure whether Lin Xuan will want them to grow potatoes, but Erya's going to study medicine can offset that [-]%, which makes her very happy.

"Master Hou is very kind to us. If any child in our village goes to study, one can offset [-]% of the rent, son of a bitch, if you succeed in your studies in the future, you must repay Lord Hou well." Zhou Aniu said.

"Father, I know, those of us Murakami who study in the academy say so." Goudan nodded.

Although Lin Xuan has regulations that send children to study, each child will be exempted by [-]%, and no matter how many children are sent, the maximum can only be reduced by [-]%, but the people of Zhouzhuang are still grateful to him.

Although you have to pay [-]% of the rent, it is actually not much different from not paying.

When other landlords farm their fields to their tenants, they need to collect [-]% of the rent, and this [-]% is calculated after paying the court tax.

And Lin Xuan gave them a [-]% rent reduction before, and also stipulated that the tax should be borne by him.

Now because studying can be exempted, most people only need to pay [-]% of the rent.

And this [-]%, after deducting the tax, there is not much left at all.

In this way, there is actually not much difference between them helping the Lin family farm and planting their own fields, and the food left in the end.

The people in Zhouzhuang not only taught their children to repay Lin Xuan well in the future, many people even set up longevity cards for Lin Xuan.

It is not an exaggeration for Lin Xuan to call it the Buddha of Wanjiasheng in Zhouzhuang.

……

"Master, many people suddenly appeared to buy grain in large quantities. The price has been raised several times, but there are still people who keep buying it," Cui Butler said.

Cui Hao asked: "Tell me carefully."

As the person in charge of the Cui family in Chang'an, he is also in charge of the Cui family's business in Chang'an.

Of course, there are many things that are managed by a dedicated person, and only when there is something that can't be solved, will I come to him.

"In the past few days, the number of people buying grain at Cui's grain store has increased significantly. The grain sold every day is double the usual amount. The shopkeeper asked someone to inquire. Not only Cui's grain store, but all the grain stores in Chang'an It’s all the same. Now that the price has risen to six cents a bucket, the number of people buying grain has not decreased, but has actually increased. The shopkeeper felt that something was wrong, so he reported it.” The butler said.

Cui Hao nodded and said, "It's really abnormal. It's obvious that someone is buying grain."

"Then shall we still sell it? If someone has evil intentions, it will be troublesome if the court finds out." The butler said.

Although grain is not a monopoly of the imperial court, there are certain restrictions on the shops that sell grain in order to worry about people hoarding grain and rebelling.

Cui Hao sneered and said, "How could the imperial court investigate? This matter was done by the imperial court."

If there are really people with evil intentions, they will only buy food slowly in secret, and everyone will know about it.

"Then do you want to sell it in limited quantities?" the butler asked.

Cui Hao pondered for a while, and said: "Forget it, continue to raise the price of grain, the old man sent a letter back to the family, let the family make a decision, if the family wants to continue to sell, they will send someone to deliver the grain."

The Cui family's base camp is not here, and the Cui family's land in Guanzhong is not much, and naturally there is not much food.

They are usually shipped from Shandong, but now some people are buying them wantonly. The remaining grain in Chang'an can't last long at all. Even if they want to sell it, they have to be shipped from Shandong.

This scene also happened to several other companies.

Several other families made the same decision as Cui Hao. There was no way, they didn't have much food in Chang'an.

The Guanlong Group was different. They were in Guanzhong and quickly made a decision to set aside some necessary food for the family and sell the excess.

It has been more than ten years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and it has been less than ten years since it was fully unified. Now the land annexation is not serious, and the aristocratic families of the Guanlong Group do not have a lot of land.

Therefore, their food did not cause much disturbance, and was easily eaten by Li Shimin. After all, Li Shimin is not short of money now.

The Guanlong family naturally knew that the imperial court was collecting grain. Although they thought the price of grain would rise, they didn't dare to bet.

After all, the world is peaceful now, and there are no natural disasters. Who knows if Li Shimin will not accept him suddenly.

However, when they sold their grain, they found that the grain price not only did not fall, but continued to rise, and they were so angry that they almost vomited blood.

Seeing this situation, some aristocratic families from other places sent people back to their hometowns to transport grain to Chang'an for sale. Some grain merchants also used their own means to mobilize grain to Chang'an, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.

It takes a lot of time to transport grain from other places to Chang'an, so Chang'an can't buy grain at all now, causing panic.

……

"Your Majesty, this situation must be stopped. Now a bucket of grain has increased by nearly ten cents. If it continues, there will be big trouble!" Wei Zheng said excitedly.

"That's right, many people in Chang'an City buy food to live on. If the price goes up like this, the people can't afford it at all."

"Now it's not a matter of affordability, but it's hard to buy food now."

As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, there was a sound of agreement.

The strange thing is that Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and a few others didn't tell the truth.

Li Shimin raised his hand, stopped the commotion in the hall, and said, "Xuanling, what do you think we should do now?"
