Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Li Shimin was stunned and looked at Fang Yuan in surprise.

I have already thought of several possibilities for Fang Yuan, but I didn't think of this.

So, in fact, Fang Yuan hit the right button and saved the food in Wuling County by all sorts of coincidences?

But thinking about it in a blink of an eye, he felt that Fang Yuan was a good official who did things for the people, and before leaving, he still thought about the people of Wuling County.

If all the officials in the world are like Fang Yuan, why should the world not be prosperous?

"Fang Xianzun really cares about the country and the people, I deeply admire it!"

Li Shimin sighed, proud of having such a courtier.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, drink tea."

Fang Yuan waved his hand, picked up the teacup and said.

Worrying about the country and the people is out of the question, the main thing is that it has its own shares.

Otherwise, with his temperament, it is impossible for him to preside over the bidding here.

"Fang Xianzun is so generous, why don't you donate these grains to the imperial court for disaster relief."

"I believe that the emperor will think that Fang Xianzun is a great talent when he hears about it, and it will not be a problem for him to worship the prime minister in the future."

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

Like an expert, pointing out the bright future for Fang Yuan.

However......

"puff!"

Fang Yuan spat out a mouthful of tea.

It was sprayed on Li Shimin's chest in the middle, and a small amount was splashed on his face.

Li Shimin originally looked like an expert, but his face sank in an instant.

The caravan representatives who had been paying attention to Fang Yuan couldn't help laughing when they saw this.

Only Du Ruhui's mouth twitched wildly, wanting to rush up and beat Fang Yuan up.

"Sorry, sorry."

"Boss Li, what you said is too funny, I really can't blame you."

Fang Yuan couldn't laugh or cry.

He wanted to wipe the tea on his chest, but Naihe didn't have a towel in his hand.

Stretching out his hand, he retracted it embarrassingly, so he could only express his apologies to Li Shimin.

"Are my words funny?"

Li Shimin's face was ugly, he ignored his wet clothes, and said in a deep voice.

He was not very angry when he was sprayed suddenly, but Fang Yuan said his words were too funny, which made him angry.

Being serious, it can be regarded as pointing out the way for Fang Yuan, why is it so funny?

I don't know how many people want to get their own advice.

"Naturally, it's extremely funny."

"Give these grains to the imperial court, what will the people in my Wuling County eat?"

Fang Yuan asked back.

"Since we can sell all of them, it means there is still food left in Wuling County."

"Giving them to the imperial court did not affect the normal life of the people in Wuling County, and it could save countless people. Why not?"

Li Shimin said solemnly.

"Why not?"

"The food is cultivated by [-] people from Wuling County. They dig the ground to drain water, drive away locusts, leave early and return late, and work hard."

"Giving them to the imperial court is the hard work of the [-] people in Wuling County. What can they get? After a whole year of hard work, it's in vain?"

Fang Yuan was laughed angrily, looked at Li Shimin like a fool.

Is this guy here to bid for food, or to cause trouble?

"How can you say it's a waste of time?"

"Saving countless people is countless achievements and political achievements."

Li Shimin was also dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice.

"Saving the common people is the business of the emperor and the princes of the Manchu Dynasty. What does it have to do with me, a small county magistrate?"

"Everyone in Wuling County is living a tight life. How can there be spare food to save other people?"

Fang Yuan's face was calm, he sneered.

"Eat the king's salary, share the worries for the king."

"Don't Fang Xianzun consider it for the emperor?"

Li Shimin also said with a sullen face, in a cold voice.

Like an angry tiger, roaring like a king.

On the side, Lu Chuchu's face turned pale and she was sweating profusely at some point.

"For the sake of the emperor, why did the emperor ever consider for us?"

"Could it be that the emperor can get something for nothing, and wants us to give it for nothing?"

"If you want food, yes, then come to bid and spend money on it. Don't force yourself to just want to whore for nothing."

"Also, if Boss Li didn't come to bid, please leave Wuling County."

Fang Yuan sneered, and responded to Li Shimin.

When he was still the chief bookkeeper, he repeatedly wrote to Chang'an City in order to cultivate good crops.

However, the memorials all fell into disarray, and there was no news of each one. At that time, Fang Yuan knew that it was useless to rely on the court and the emperor, and he had to be hard himself to strike iron.

Chapter 9 I don't even have money in my internal treasury

Li Shimin was speechless.

Especially the last sentence of the order to chase away guests left him speechless.

At this time, it is impossible to say that he is the emperor, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

After thinking about it, Li Shimin replied in anger and embarrassment: "It's because I was thinking too naively."

I thought Fang Yuan would sneer some more, but unexpectedly Fang Yuan suddenly changed his face.

"Hahaha, Boss Li has great love for the world. I am deeply impressed and respectful."

"Boss Li must not be merciful when bidding later. After buying the grain, he can consider donating it to the imperial court."

Fang Yuan smiled, and patted Li Shimin's shoulder with his big hand.

Li Daye must be a rich man, so there is no need to make trouble with the other party before bidding.

Even if he can't buy food, he can still contribute to the bidding.

Li Shimin was stunned by such a slap, thinking to himself when was the last time he was slapped on the shoulder like this.

Immediately savoring Fang Yuan's words carefully, he felt that Fang Yuan was a bad person, he refused to give food, but let himself buy it and then give it away.

But...cough cough...Fang Yuan said that according to what he just said, there is no problem.

"sure."

Li Shimin nodded in embarrassment, and retreated.

As soon as he sat down, Du Ruhui asked about the situation, but he couldn't hear the words on the ring.

The ring was a little far away from the crowd, and the whispered words could not be heard below, and the crowd couldn't hear clearly.

"Nothing...is this iced watermelon?"

Li Shimin shook his head and did not answer.

Immediately, he noticed that there was an extra glass of red liquid on the table, and there was a burst of coolness on it, and he was surprised.

"Yes, it was sent by the green summer girl."

"Drinking it in this weather is very thirst-quenching and refreshing."

Du Ruhui did not continue to ask, and explained.

"Iced watermelon... Wuling County still has ice this month..."

Li Shimin murmured.

It's not like he hasn't had iced watermelon before.

It's only May Day, and the ice cubes saved by the royal family were all used up last month.

He didn't expect Wuling County to still have ice cubes at this time, which really surprised him.

This Wuling County is really full of surprises hidden everywhere, like a treasure, and there are good things to look for.

No, to be precise, Fang Yuan revealed surprises everywhere, there were many unexpected things about him.

Or he should wait until he digs out all the secrets of Fang Yuan before revealing his identity.

What will Fang Yuan's expression look like then?

Will you regret talking to yourself like that just now?

"Everyone, the bidding is about to start, I would like to say a few words first."

Fang Yuan walked to the middle of the ring, looked at the crowd and said loudly.

Everyone's eyes were attracted, and they stopped talking.

"This bidding is fair and just, and the highest bid wins."

"Just now you have seen the grain situation. They are all high-quality grain, with an output of about 100 million shi. They will all be harvested tomorrow."

"Now the price of rice in the Wuling County market is [-] qian per bucket, that is, [-] qian per stone. Bidding starts with this as the base price. There is no cap. Whoever has the highest price will get the batch of grain."

Fang Yuan said loudly.

The on-site caravan representatives suddenly became enthusiastic.

At the same time, each of them showed a look of shock, and their breathing became slightly short of breath.

They have traveled far and wide, and have a great understanding of the food in the world, and know how much food is out there now.

Taking Chang'an City as a representative, a bucket of grain in Chang'an City can now be sold for [-] yuan, which is a hundred times that of Wuling County!

If one million stones from Wuling County were bought at a low price, and then resold to Chang'an City, it would be an astronomical income!

Li Shimin and Du Ruhui were also shocked, shocked by the price of grain in Wuling County.

As far as they know, the price of grain in Chang'an City has never been lower than five cents a bucket.

At this moment, the monarch and his ministers looked at each other and vowed to take this batch of grain to the death.

But in fact, other caravan representatives also thought the same way, and they also wanted to take this batch of grain at all costs.

"Okay, let's get started."

Fang Yuan was very satisfied with everyone's expressions.

Judging from everyone's expressions, the bidding has been more than half successful.

After the voice fell, there was the sound of bidding immediately on the scene.

"thirty!"

"forty!"

"Fifty!"

"eighty!"
