At the beginning, he will be divided by five horses of Tang Taizong

"Hmph, what to do in the future, think more about your old Fang's family, Jing'er, send Fang Yiai away!"

"Yes..." the maid replied.

"Let's go...consort!"

It wasn't until Fang Yiai came out of the room that he realized that his back was soaked in cold sweat.

......

Fang Yiai was in a daze, until someone patted him from behind, and he was relieved suddenly.

"What are you doing standing here?"

Fang Yiai turned her head, and when she saw the person coming, her mood became even worse.

It was Qin Shou who came, and he happened to be back at this time, and he couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw Fang Yiai

"Your complexion is not very good, you don't feel any color, are you tired recently?"

"..." Fang Yiai didn't want to speak.

Qin Shou said with a gentle face, "you are good at everything, but you don't like to talk, and you always have a tense face. Don't you feel uncomfortable? Think about it, there are not many days in your life. Happiness is stronger than anything."

Nima!

Fang Yiai's tooth socket was almost broken.

Anyone is qualified to say this, but you are not qualified to say it.

Seeing that Fang Yiai still didn't speak, Qin Shou said with a smile: "Don't say it, I just like people like you, reliable..."

The more Qin Shou said this, the more Fang Yiai felt that she was about to explode, and her ribs hurt.

Out of sight, out of mind, what the hell, can I go?

But as soon as he moved, he was grabbed by Qin Shou, "Well... you worked hard to transport grain southward some time ago, and we have made a lot of money in grain and oil during this time, and you are also involved in it." I have prepared everything for you, and I will go to the cashier to collect the money in a while."

Fang Yiai couldn't help but paused, and asked, "How much?"

Qin Shou smiled and said, "It's not too much. I'll give you 1 guan first, which counts as a commission for this time. There will be more later, and they will be settled together during the Chinese New Year."

"Gudu!"

"How much? Ten million guan?"

Fang Yiai's expression froze all of a sudden, he rubbed his face, and asked in disbelief.

You must know that his father, Fang Xuanling, is a first-rank official, and his annual salary, plus salary, employment, and servants, does not exceed one thousand guan a year.

With so much money, their entire Fang family may have so much, but they have never seen it before.

Seeing Fang Yiai's shocked expression, Qin Shou smiled even wider.

Wealth gathers and people disperse, and wealth disperses and people gather!

The experience of previous life management tells me that I can't let myself earn all the money, I should "spread money" and spread it. Only by treating my subordinates generously can I make my side full of talents.

It's really not easy to find such a reliable and loyal person, and you have to be worthy of him no matter what.

Besides, good talents will definitely be able to create more profits in the future.

In the long run, absolutely no loss!

Fang Yiai swallowed, shook her head and said, "This...I don't want it!"

"You have to keep the money no matter what. You are not too young, and it's time to marry a wife. If you fall in love with a girl from a family, even if it's from a wealthy family, you don't have to worry about the money. It's just you For the money you usually spend, a man must have some money in his hands at any time, right?"

"..." Fang Yi's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Nima!

What do you mean?

Donkey day stuff, give me money to find a wife?

......

At this time, food prices in Chang'an City began to skyrocket.

As the plague of locusts passed, the floods in the Yellow River gradually subsided, and all the farmland that had been submerged was exposed, and the new grass on the grasslands also appeared.

But the important point is that today's new grain production has been greatly reduced, leaving many of these large households with little stock in their granaries.

But the consequences of the locust plague and floods are beginning to be felt.

The grain prices in some markets in and around Chang'an began to rise again.

The price of rice rose to twenty yuan again.

The "Benxin" grain store, which bought back grain against the trend before, has once again been focused on.

Chapter 41: Father knows?

Food prices are still rising, and have risen to [-] yuan per bucket.

The people complained.

The wealthy grain merchants who were still selling grain before suddenly stopped selling grain to the outside world because there was no grain in the granary.

In fact, the rise in food prices this time has the greatest impact on the wealthy grain merchants, because they are a group of speculators. To put it bluntly, they are a group of speculators.

Have money but don't stock too much food.

Taking advantage of the good market to make a fortune, this is why before, when the price of food fell, they would sell the food wantonly, fearing that they would miss the opportunity, and the food would be moldy and wormy, and they would fall into their hands.

But at the same time, their family has a big business and a lot of consumption. The daily food and clothing expenses at home are a lot of money, and the grain store is waiting for the rice to open.

Now that food prices are soaring again, they can't help but feel regretful

hate it!

Back then, my granary was full, so why didn't I hold my breath and sold it all at once.

This made the common people even more angry, and they started to scold directly, and the scolding was bloody.

"A grain merchant in a dog day, the price of grain started to rise again after buying it for a few days?"

"They must be selling it at a higher price, and they also said that there is no food. Are they lying to ghosts?"

"Benxin grain store is better. The price is [-]% lower than that of grain merchants. The key is that there is never a shortage of grain."

"That's not right....... The grain and oil in the Benxin Grain Store are also good, and the price is not high."

"......"

On the other hand, the high families of the "Five Surnames and Seven Wangs" still had food. Even though they sold a lot of food for the imperial court as disaster relief, they sold a lot when the price of food fell, but the emaciated camels were bigger than horses.

Not to mention Benxin Grain Store.

Originally, the grain merchants hated the Benxin grain store for disrupting the grain market, but this time they hated it even more.

Many of them gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

"All the good people let the Benxin Grain Store do it, so don't blame us for crowding out you together with the five surnames and Qiwang."

"Is this okay? Before, we didn't want to get too involved with the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, because we were afraid that their family would be powerful and they wouldn't eat us up. We didn't even know..."

"Is there a better way now? Should I go to the Benxin Grain Store now?"

"......"

In the end, a consensus was reached to cooperate with Wuxing Qiwang to suppress Benxin Grain Store.

......

palace, hall of tai chi

Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and many other officials came to see Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was annoyed, what he told Changsun Wuji to do hadn't been done?

The reason was that Fang Yiai disagreed.

He couldn't help cursing secretly: "Simple-minded, big-hearted bastard, do you really think I can't do anything to you?"

It's okay to scold me... This matter is that the Li Tang royal family is sorry for Fang Yi'ai, and Fang Yi'ai disagrees, so can they press their heads forcibly without drinking water?

If there is going to be trouble, everyone in the court will know it, and it will not end.

"Your Majesty, the price of food in Chang'an has skyrocketed again recently, and the common people are miserable, and there is not much food left in our treasury warehouse. It may be difficult in the future..."

When Wei Zheng said this, he looked up at Li Shimin who was in a daze.

"What does Ai Qing think?" Li Shimin came back to his senses suddenly, looking at Wei Zheng with burning eyes and asked.

"Your Majesty, I heard that there is a lot of food in the Benxin Grain Store, and Benxin belongs to the Princess Mansion, so..."

Li Shimin squinted his eyes, how could he not understand what Wei Zheng meant.

What is this old guy thinking?

But he said indifferently: "The Benxin Grain Store is the private property of the Princess Mansion, you should not go to me for this matter, you should go to the Princess Mansion!"

Because of the locust plague before, he didn't pay much attention to the matter of repurchasing grain from the "Benxin" grain store at all.

When Qin Shou borrowed money from himself, vowing that he would make a lot of money soon, he refused in his heart. If it wasn't because Qin Shou was so surprised by the method of exterminating locusts, he wouldn't have had the money at all. .

But what made him speechless was that it had only been a few days before food prices really rose again.

When Li Shimin said this, everyone's eyes couldn't help turning to one person.

Li Shimin was also looking at Fang Xuanling, his eyes flickering, and he thought: "Since Fang Yiai doesn't make any sense, I still have to rely on you as my father to do ideological work!"

Fang Xuanling was a little confused.

"Princess Mansion? Princess Gaoyang Mansion?"

It is true that Fang Xuanling can make good judgments, otherwise there would be no allusion of "Fang's conspiracy to stop judgments".

But people have shortcomings, and their focus and focus are also different. He has an amazingly keen sense of national affairs, but he rarely pays attention to family affairs.

Therefore, when everyone looked at him, it took a long time to react.

Wei Zheng and other ministers looked at Fang Xuanling enthusiastically: "Mr. Fang, it seems that you have to come forward in this matter!"

Isn't the private property of Princess Gaoyang's family the property of your son and daughter-in-law?

"Even if the Benxin Food Store belongs to the Princess Mansion, how much food do they have?"

Wei Zheng said word by word: "It is said that the Benxin Grain Store stores at least 30 shi of grain."

"Besides, there are only so many in Chang'an area. I heard that Benxin Grain Store in the surrounding area of ​​Chang'an is also stockpiling grain..."

hiss!

Fang Xuanling couldn't help but tremble.

For a moment, I almost couldn't hold back the dripping down.

Except for Wei Zheng, all other ministers are no better than Fang Xuanling,

Nima!

They knew that the Benxin Grain Store had a lot of food in stock, but they never thought they could store so much.

Fang Xuanling swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and asked again in disbelief: "Wei Zheng, are you joking?"

Wei Zheng didn't speak, but looked straight at him.

Fang Xuanling's complexion completely changed, as if a thunderstorm fell into his mind, it buzzed continuously.

......

Until he left the palace, Fang Xuanling's mind was still in a mess.

On the way home, he muttered to himself: "Yi Ai? How could it be the second son Yi Ai, who was ignorant and ignorant?"

Fang Yiai couldn't figure it out, but then he remembered another thing. Before, Hou Junji told himself that many people visited Fang Yiai.

This made him a little bit unbelievable.

Could it be that the lintel of my Fang family is going to be carried forward by the second son?

When he got home, he didn't even bother to eat, so he said to the eldest son Fang Yi, "Go, bring me Yiai, I have something to ask him."

Fang Yizhi couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat when he heard it, "Father, why are you looking for Yi's love house?"
