?Chen Yue noticed that many hungry people from other places came to the city of Hangzhou. Now that the food had cost two hundred coins, it reflected that the situation was unusual. After the painstaking management of Wu Yue and the Southern Tang Dynasty, Jiangnan was already the age of the Song Dynasty. Changpingcang in Hangzhou, the most prosperous and prosperous place in the country, stores a large amount of grain and rice all year round. It collects grain when the price of grain is low and produces grain when the price of grain is high to stabilize prices, so that grain prices in Hangzhou usually remain stable. .
¡° One stone of grain has increased from one stone to two hundred dollars per stone, which may not seem like much, but when it comes to the nearly one million people in Hangzhou, it is by no means a small amount. The monthly income of ordinary people is no more than two or three guans per month, and those with poorer conditions are even less. For them, two hundred guans is all they need to improve their lives. If it rises a little more, ordinary landless citizens will not say anything. If you want to eat meat once in a while, you may not even be able to afford vegetables.
Chen Yue is usually very pampered and doesn't care much about the prices of grain, rice, tea and vegetables. With his family background, it is impossible for him to starve. He only briefly understood it when he was making stir-fries. Now he doesn't know. Changpingcang has not yet started to put grain, because Changpingcang is already beyond its capabilities. If the grain storage has not started yet, there is no need to worry too much. Once the Changping warehouse is opened, the price of grain will naturally drop; but if the grain stored in the Changping warehouse is no longer enough, the situation will not be so optimistic.
He has no news about the surrounding states and counties, but it is not difficult to see that this year's situation may be even more difficult than in previous years. However, these are not things he has to consider. After all, he is not in his position and does not want to govern. It's just that now he needs a reason to refuse his father's request for him to enroll in school. This proposition of "producing people and establishing their lives" has always been the most difficult reason for literati to refuse. oh. Zhang Zai, who said these words, may have just given up on the fantasy of leading troops in battle and began to concentrate on learning.
"Master Huang!"
A call interrupted Chen Yue's thoughts, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Qin Chan.
"Oh, it's Miss Qin. Why don't you go to the tea shop today?"
Qin Chan walked over with a smile, her figure was graceful, and she was full of happiness: "I quit my job after the accident last time. Fortunately, Liulang has found a good job. I get three wages per month. Now I can do some things at home." Being a female celebrity can barely support the family."
"Well, those Japanese people may not dare to come and cause trouble again. But it's better to resign." Chen Yue thought that the rise in food prices would have a big impact on them. Fortunately, there are only two people in their household, so they can't afford food rations. too much. Then he asked: "Did the Chen family say anything again?"
Qin Chan shook her head: "I moved out before, and now we live over there in Dongshui Lane. I don't know if they haven't found us yet, or if they don't plan to pursue us anymore."
Chen Yue thought to himself that if she knew who she was, she would regret telling her where she lived. Just as he was about to say a few words of relief, another person ran up behind Qin Chan. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Chen Yue, and then he realized that it was Young Master Huang. He said, "It turns out to be Young Master Huang. I haven't thanked Young Master for the Chen family's affairs yet. I didn't expect that last time The young master helped my sister again."
"Brother Qin, you're welcome." Chen Yue returned the gesture, "I have nothing to do. Brother Qin, why don't we go have a cup of tea together?" He was also a little tired from walking just now, so he planned to find a place to sit, but just now When meeting Qin Chan, it would be difficult for a woman to invite her, but now there is no problem in adding Qin Liulang.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Huang, but I still have things to do. I will treat you to a drink some other time."
Chen Yue could see that he was still a little wary of himself in his eyes, and it was no wonder that in this world, there were only a few people who were willing to help when they met by chance. Besides, there was a small misunderstanding at the beginning, Qin Chan is bright and charming, so it's normal for her to suspect that she has ulterior motives, and he won't care. "What a coincidence, then I'll come back another day to ask for a drink."
Qin Chan looked at Chen Yue's expression and was worried that he might misunderstand. She asked Qin Liulang, "Didn't Liulang say he was going to Mr. Fan's house to deliver the jade plaque before? Why are you back now?"
"Mr. Fan is not at home, and the disciples refuse to accept him. Manager Han asked me to go back and let him know." Qin Liulang replied.
Chen Yue was stunned. When talking about jade plaques in the city of Hangzhou, it was naturally the jade plaques from the Xizi Tower. Unexpectedly, Qin Liulang worked in the Xizi Tower.
"Fan Gongke has resigned five or six times. I'm afraid I won't be able to deliver this jade token. Alas, so many people are rushing for this thing, but the person who deserves it the most doesn't want to accept it" Fan Zhongyan didn't care. The reputation in the court and among the people was very high. Qin Chan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. However, at this time, court officials were mostly called official titles. The control in the Song Dynasty was very complicated. In addition to the official dispatch of serious officials, There are also title titles, etc., which usually refers to which rank is higher. For example, Bao Zheng was assigned the title of Bachelor of Zhilong Tuge, and his colleagues called him Bao Longtu. However, few people in the market can clearly understand the official's post except for dispatch. For those who hold the position, it is not a bad idea to honor him with the honorific title Fan Zhongyan and Fan Gong.
"This is already the sixth episode,"The big shopkeeper here said that this jade token must be delivered ten or twenty times, but this is not something we can worry about. We just have to do our errands first. "
Chen Yue was not surprised that Fan Zhongyan refused to accept the jade tablet. When he was young, he had a story of "cutting porridge and cutting off a piece of rice". He came from a wealthy family, but he insisted on ascetic study. When he got old, he already had no shortage of fame and was unwilling to join in this restaurant to do it. There is nothing surprising about the bustle, but these days I have been thinking about how to deal with the family asking him to enroll in school. I didn't hear that Chen En has sent jade tokens to Fan's house six times, creating such a big momentum. If Fan Zhongyan can't be allowed to accept the jade plaque, for fear that it will have a big blow to the reputation of the jade plaque.
"Liu Lang, hurry up and do your work. Don't delay the business," Qin Chan told Qin Liulang, and then said to Chen Yue: "Liu Lang is working in Xizi Building by the West Lake. The gold and jade medals that are talked about in the streets are from there. Yes, you must have heard of it too."
Chen Yue thought about the things that the machine produced. He had never heard of it. But it was hard to say so. "I have heard of it. This Xizi Building is not small in scale. I heard that it is a first-class restaurant. It can be in I have a plan to work there, and I don¡¯t know if I will have the spare money to have a meal when it opens. Mukuro should go and do it first." He did not forget to put gold on his face.
Qin Chan was slightly surprised when he heard that he might not have the spare money to go to Xizilou. Being able to drive away everyone from the Chen family that day was not like a family with an ordinary family background, but she was just surprised and had no other ideas. Qin Liulang had no other expression. He seemed a little worried that Chen Yue and Qin Chan were alone together, but in the end he didn't say much, just bowed his hands and left.
"If I want to go to the Xizi Tower then, I'm afraid I'll have to ask Liu Lang to greet me. I wonder if the price can be cheaper, haha." Chen Yue smiled and joked, but in his heart he was thinking about how to use the jade plaque. Deliver it to Fan Zhongyan. (To be continued)
