Although the Dongshi riot was pacified by Xiao Jie without any risk, Chang Shi Fu Kuang did not leave with other officials, but followed Xiao Jie back to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. He needed to discuss with Xiao Jie to find a solution. approach to the price crisis.
Fu Kuang knew very well in his heart that because of the riots in the East Market, the looting of the rice shop would only greatly intensify the panic about food shortages in the market, and then continue to push up food prices, which in turn would lead to larger-scale riots.
You know, an ordinary family of five needs to eat about five buckets of rice a month, and the people's livelihood in Jiaozhou is poor, and many people can't make a regular amount of money a month. Food for a few days is bound to cause trouble.
But Fu Kuang has been an official for many years. He knows that the biggest problem in Jiaozhou now is not the skyrocketing food prices, but the lack of food to buy, and the people can't buy food with money. This is the root of the people's panic and a great hidden danger. At any moment there could be a riot bigger than today.
Xiao Jie invited Fu Kuang into the study, and Fu Kuang didn't bother to take a sip of tea as soon as he sat down, so he said to Xiao Jie worriedly: "Your Highness, I'm sorry to say that if you don't solve the problem of food shortage in the market, I'm afraid it will still be a problem." There will be new riots."
Xiao Jie glanced at Fu Kuang and asked with a smile, "Fu Changshi thinks that there is no food to buy in the market. Is it really because of the shortage of food in Jiaozhou?"
Fu Kuang was taken aback, he didn't seem to understand Xiao Jie's meaning, could there be another reason behind the fact that there is no grain to sell in the market?
Xiao Jie smiled faintly, opened a drawer, took out a booklet, handed it to Fu Kuang, and said, "Fu Changshi will understand after reading this booklet."
Fu Kuang stepped forward to take the booklet with a suspicious expression on his face. When he opened it, his face changed slightly. It recorded the grain storage situation of each warehouse in detail. Wanshi, if put on the market, would be enough to solve the current food crisis.
"Your Highness, this is..." Fu Kuang looked at Xiao Jie in surprise and doubt.
Xiao Jie smiled slightly: "This is the account book of Tangji Rice Bank."
Hearing the words "Tang Ji Mi Xing", Fu Kuang's expression was a little unnatural.
Xiao Jie saw the change in his expression and knew it in his heart. It seems that Fu Changshi also knew the background of this Tang Ji Mi Xing.
Ever since he found out that someone was spreading the news about the shortage of grain in the state treasury, causing the price of grain in the market to skyrocket, but the amount of grain sold decreased by a large amount, Xiao Jie had already noticed that someone was manipulating everything behind the scenes and wanted to use the grain issue to make a fuss, which in turn triggered Riot deals with itself.
Xiao Jie is not a person who just sits and waits to die. He dispatched his own dead men to investigate secretly, and soon found out about Jiaozhou Sicang Chen Si and Tang Ji Mixing, and also found out that they all had a close relationship with the late Jiaozhou governor Li Rui. Xiao Jie instantly understood that all of this had something to do with the Longxi Li family behind them.
The Li family has no grudges with him in the past, and they have no grudges in the present, so it must be because of the struggle for the heir apparent that they took so much trouble to deal with him.
Although it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, Xiao Jie is obviously not a gentleman. He pays attention to revenge if he has revenge, from morning till night!
Now that Sicang Chen Si has been eliminated by the hands of the mob, the next thing Xiao Jie has to deal with is naturally this Tang Ji Mi Xing.
"Tang Ji Mi Xing is such a confidential information, I don't know where His Highness got it from?" Fu Kuang was a little puzzled. The booklet in his hand could be regarded as the most important core business secret of Tang Ji Mi Xing. He was very curious about how King Qi did it. Got it.
Xiao Jie smiled slightly: "Of course I sent someone to investigate."
Fu Kuang couldn't help being slightly startled, and thought to himself that King Qi's people really penetrated everywhere, and it seemed that nothing could be hidden from his eyes and ears.
"Nowadays, the price of grain in the market has skyrocketed, and the common people can't afford to buy grain at a high price. However, Tang Ji Mi Xing, the largest grain merchant in Jiaozhou, hoards the grain at this time and refuses to sell it. It's really disgusting. I don't know what Fu Changshi did. See?" Xiao Jie looked at Fu Kuang with righteous indignation on his face, and asked knowingly.
Fu Kuang's face became even more embarrassed, so he had to laugh dryly, and said somewhat insincerely: "Your Highness is right, such behavior is really hateful."
Xiao Jie got up abruptly, as if he had made up his mind: "Tomorrow, I will lead my troops to seal up the Tangji rice store, search their warehouses for grain, and sell the grain on the market to lower the price of grain in the market. "
"Your Highness, this is absolutely impossible."
Fu Kuang couldn't help but change his face when he heard the words. He had worked with Li Rui, the former governor, for many years. Of course, he knew that Tangji Mixing was inextricably linked with the Li family. He also knew that Tangji Mixing made a lot of money by monopolizing the Jiaozhou grain market. Many local officials in Jiaozhou also got a piece of the pie.
If Xiao Jie really led people to raid Tangji Rice Company, he would not only offend the Li family in Longxi, but also offend many local officials who had interests in Tangji Rice Company, and the entire Jiaozhou officialdom would be thrown into chaos. Featherless.
Fu Kuang even vaguely sensed that Tang Ji Mi Xing was now hoarding grain, not only to sell it at a high price, but also to take the opportunity to deal with Xiao Jie. Snatched from hand.
"Your Highness, the hoarding of food by the Tangji Rice Store is indeed excessive, but it does not violate any of the laws and regulations of Daning. If His Highness leads troops to forcibly search the Tangji Rice Store, I am afraid that it will be true, and it will be very detrimental to His Highness." The situation is not good to tell the truth, so I can only persuade Xiao Jie to give up this idea by beating around the bush.
Xiao Jie seemed to be moved by Fu Kuang's words, his brows frowned, and his tone was somewhat helpless: "Could it be that I am a majestic king of Qi, and the governor of Jiaozhou can't help me with a small Tangji rice?"
"Not necessarily. How about it, Your Highness. I will talk to Tang Ji Mixing tomorrow, and put a little pressure on them, so that they at least put some grain on the market no matter what, to alleviate the food crisis. If they insist If not, we can still send people to Yangzhou and Jingzhou to buy some grain, there will be a way, the living cannot be suffocated to death by urine." Fu Kuang seemed to have made up his mind, and his tone became firmer.
Fu Kuang also knew that if the information given to him by Xiao Jie was correct, Tang Ji Mi Xing would indeed be the best breakthrough to solve the food crisis in Jiaozhou. Don't go too far. Compared with Li Rui, the governor of Jiaozhou is no longer, and they should restrain themselves as a grain merchant. It is not good for anyone to make too much trouble.
Xiao Jie nodded slightly, as if he had been influenced by Fu Kuang, and his tone was more generous: "As the governor of Jiaozhou, how can I let Fu Changshi come forward alone, and keep myself out of the matter? I will be with Fu Changshi tomorrow. Go talk to Tom Kee."
Fu Kuang was slightly taken aback, and inadvertently revealed a wry smile.
It was a good thing that Xiao Jie was willing to go to Tangji Mihang to talk with him, but he was worried that Xiao Jie would not be able to rub the sand in his eyes, and if there was any conflict with Tangji Mihang, the conflict between the two parties would be intensified and things would be even worse. manage.
But now Xiao Jie volunteered, and Fu Kuang couldn't refuse, so he had to make an appointment with Xiao Jie about the reason for coming together tomorrow, and left at random.
Xiao Jie looked at Fu Kuangyuan's back, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he shook his head randomly.
This Fu Changshi is good at everything, but he is too down-to-earth, he is almost sold by himself and still counts the money for himself.
Fu Kuang knew very well in his heart that because of the riots in the East Market, the looting of the rice shop would only greatly intensify the panic about food shortages in the market, and then continue to push up food prices, which in turn would lead to larger-scale riots.
