    Lan Changhe stood up bowed and reported: "Your Majesty, what I want to report is that I have a clear understanding of the situation of the grain merchants in Chang'an. I found that most of the grain merchants in Chang'an are going to drive up the price of grain. They want to increase the price of grain seeds, and even  Double the sale."

    "This behavior is never allowed. Once it happens, the minister will definitely deal with it severely. Therefore, the minister's plan is to establish a rule that any merchant who drives up the price will be severely punished. And the merchant will drive away the profit and take risks, and it is very likely that he will ignore the minister.  order. At that time, the minister will most likely start killing."

    Lan Changhe said: "Therefore, I have to report this matter to the palace, and I beg Your Majesty's permission."

    Du Qi smiled when he heard it.

    Lan Changhe came prepared.

    Not to ask for help.

    What Lan Changhe said, saying that he has found out the situation of the grain merchants, obviously has a clear understanding of many situations, so he can say that.

    Du Qilue thought about it, and said: "The merchants are driving up the prices of goods, especially grain prices, and indeed they should be dealt with severely. How you want to deal with it, I don't ask. It's just that you have dealt with these merchants. Is there enough grain? Now that spring plowing is coming, continue to delay.  Spring plowing is coming to an end. When spring plowing is over, replanting is not as good as timely sowing.¡±

    Lan Changhe said solemnly: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I have made proper arrangements to ensure enough grain."

    Du Qidao: "Where did you get the grain?"

    Lan Changhe said directly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the grains that I reserve are purchased from businessman Han Yun. Once the grains are insufficient, I will temporarily buy them from Han Yun at the market price, and then repay them after taxes are collected, or  It is time to directly repay the grain seeds. In short, borrow first and then repay. The government does not have grain in stock, so it can only buy it from merchants, and first satisfy the people¡¯s cultivation, and then consider other things.¡±

    Du Qidao: "Yes!"

    Du Qi thought it was not a bad thing for Lan Changhe to dare to do it, as long as it was handled properly, there was nothing wrong with it.  It is better to dare to do something like this than to do nothing.

    When Lan Changhe heard Du Qi's words, he was also relieved.  With Du Qi's support and Han Yun's assurance of sufficient grain, Lan Changhe can do it boldly, so that he won't worry about the situation getting worse and it will get out of hand at Du Qi's place.

    Lan Changhe said: "Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

    Du Qidao: "Let go and do it."

    "I will remember your Majesty's instruction."

    After Lan Changhe replied, he turned around and left.  As far as Lan Changhe was concerned, Du Qi's words of exhortation just now gave Lan Changhe more confidence. Even Du Qi had already asked him to let him do it, which meant that even if things became big and broke the sky, there would still be Du Qi.  It's not just that Han Yun has prepared food for him, but it's a stable guarantee.

    When Lan Changhe returned to the governor's mansion, he summoned the governor of Jingzhou to discuss the matter.

    The name of the governor of Jingzhou is Zhang Jingzheng.

    is from Chang'an.

    Previously, Zhang Jing was the assistant official of Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, responsible for arresting and arresting thieves and other things. He seemed quite powerful, but in fact it was the hardest and most tiring job.  In a place like Chang'an, at the foot of the emperor, if anyone is arrested, they may be relatives of the emperor, princes and nobles, and they are all people Zhang Jingzheng can't afford to offend.

    His job is to do all the dirty work, which is not easy.  Li Shimin evacuated with all the civil and military officials, and the officials of Jingzhao Yin's mansion also evacuated. Only Zhang Jingzheng, a man who did dirty work, stayed behind. He pretended that he needed someone to guard Chang'an.

    This is bullying honest people.

    Lan Changhe became the governor of Jingzhou. He promoted Zhang Jingzheng to be the governor of Jingzhou.  Although Zhang Jingzheng's ability is not particularly outstanding, it is more than enough to be the chief historian.

    The most important thing is that Zhang Jingzheng has been doing dirty work and arresting people everywhere before. He is very familiar with Chang'an and the counties in Jingzhou, and he is very clear about the local situation, so he is the chief historian.  is the most suitable candidate.

    After Zhang Jingzheng entered, he bowed and said: "Inspector."

    Lan Changhe waved Zhang Jingzheng to take a seat, and said, "Zhang Changshi, I invited you here because of the matter of grain seeds."

    When Zhang Jingzheng heard this, he quickly said: "Could it be that the governor has already had a strategy to deal with it? Now the government does not have enough money. As for grain, crops, farming equipment, and even cattle and the like. Are you going to  ,How to do it?"

    Lan Changhe said: "I have a strategy to solve this matter, you don't have to worry about it. Just one thing right now, you issue a decree in the name of this officer, ordering all grain merchants to let them sell grain seeds.  The difficulties of the people must be taken into consideration, and price hikes are not allowed, let alone price increases without reason.Those who do must be punished heavily.  "

    When Zhang Jingzheng heard this, he was taken aback.

    What kind of solution is this?

    Zhang Jingzheng thought about it for a while. He thought of Lan Changhe's kindness to him for promotion, and said, "Inspector Lan, this method is not very useful at all! The reason is actually very simple. First, the price has not been clarified. How can it be regarded as driving up prices?"  , How can it be regarded as a price increase? Second, the constraints on merchants are very weak.¡±

    After a pause, Zhang Jingzheng continued: "Especially this time when His Majesty entered Chang'an, many merchants in Chang'an have contributed a lot. Today's merchants are quite rebellious and difficult to deal with. Once they are dealt with, these people will move out."  I have helped His Majesty, which will make you helpless. These people are very cunning, and it is almost useless for you to issue such a decree."

    Lan Changhe said with a smile: "Of course I know that this order is useless, you don't have to worry about it, you just need to follow my order. In short, we will win this time. Those who drive up prices are all damned,  They will all be punished. Even their existing crimes will be disclosed, and none of them can escape."

    Although Lan Changhe said with a smile, but in the words, there is already more iron and blood.

    Lan Changhe is a person who has been on the battlefield.

    Not ordinary people.

    Such a person has the temperament of killing and decisively. Once Lan Changhe decides to do something, he will not change his mind again, and when he executes it, he will execute it with great strength and will not be soft at all.

    When Zhang Jingzheng heard Lan Changhe's words, he knew that Lan Changhe had a detailed plan, but because he was worried about leaking, Lan Changhe didn't talk about the overall plan at all, only what needs to be done now.

    In Zhang Jingzheng's heart, he also hopes that ordinary people can finish the spring plowing and live a good life.

    This is his vision.

    Zhang Jingzheng didn't go into the details anymore, and said directly: "Please don't worry, the governor, I will arrange it immediately. Within an hour and a half, all the merchants in Chang'an City who deal in grain seeds will know the news."

    Lan Changhe said: "Go!"

    Zhang Jingzheng immediately went to make arrangements, and Lan Changhe also got up and left, but went to Han Yun's house again. He still had some things and needed Han Yun's help.

    Following Zhang Jingzheng's actions, although Zhang Jingzheng said it took an hour and a half, it actually took less than an hour for the news to spread in the city.  Many businessmen knew the news.

    These businessmen, who had been ordered by the government one by one, did not dare to make decisions without authorization, and all gathered in Mofeng's mansion.  After all, Han Yun didn't get involved, and the rest of the people, headed by Mo Feng, wanted to hear Mo Feng's opinion.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
