Chapter 1275 The Facts of Floods in Taizhou Prefecture
In the 31st year of Jiajing, at the end of autumn, at si o'clock in the morning, the sun was just right.
Taizhou Fucheng, Chengxifang.
Xu Hai and others have changed into casual clothes, and accompanied by Taizhou prefect Tan Lun and Zuo Zhen, they visited Chengxifang on the spot. Chengxifang is the largest square city in Taizhou Fucheng, and its transaction volume accounts for about three-quarters of Taizhou Fucheng. This place is also the largest grain sales place in Taizhou Fucheng, where all the grain merchants in Fucheng are located.
In order to deal with Zhu Pingan in a hurry, the Jingnan investigation team only chose Chengxifang as a typical investigation site.
"The city is orderly, clean and tidy, which is really rare during the flood. Prefect Tan is very good."
After Xu Hai entered Chengxifang, he looked at the environment of the city and gave Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, affirmation.
Their inspection was almost a sudden attack. Taizhou prefect Tan Lun basically had no time to prepare. This is the most real situation in Chengxifang. It is orderly, clean and hygienic. Taizhou prefect Tan Lun is very capable.
"Master Xu's absurd praise, Tan really doesn't dare to take it." Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, said humbly, his face flushed.
Xu Hai and others shouldered the important task of inspecting and investigating the floods in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that they can get their affirmation, when they complete their mission and return to the capital, wouldn't it be possible for their achievements in governing the Taizhou government to be heard by the emperor. If he fell into the eyes of the sage because of this, wouldn't it be possible for him to rise to the top? !
So, although Tan Lun was very modest on his lips, the excitement and excitement in his heart were beyond words.
Xu Hai and his group walked into Fangshi and saw a grain shop not far away. The grain shop has a large storefront and extraordinary strength.
"Let's go, let's go to this grain store." Xu Hai said softly, his face moved. If you want to understand the disaster situation in Taizhou Prefecture, you must see the grain store. Through the grain store, you can get a glimpse of the disaster.
"Please come on business." Tan Lunli, the prefect of Taizhou, asked.
While inviting Tan Lun, he explained to Xu Hai, Zhang Wenbo, Peng Cheng and others, "This is the Fujia Grain Shop, named after the word 'Fujiatianxia'. It used to be the second largest grain merchant in Taizhou Prefecture, but now It is the largest grain merchant in Taizhou Prefecture."
"Oh, which one was the largest grain merchant in the past? Was it poor management and was overtaken by Fujia Grain Company?" Wang Meng asked casually. It is very face-saving, and I am willing to chat with Tan Lun more to show his closeness and friendliness.
"No. The original largest grain merchant was Mi's Grain Company. Twenty days ago, Mi's Grain Company drove up grain prices to sabotage disaster relief and make disaster fortunes. Its owner was beheaded by someone in the street. Therefore, Fu Jia The grain industry has become the largest grain industry." Tan Lun shook his head lightly, calmly told about his achievements in controlling grain prices by means of thunder, and confessed to Xu Hai and others without any trace. achievement.
"Extreme times call for extraordinary measures. Prefect Tan's resoluteness is truly admirable." Peng Cheng nodded.
"Mr. Peng is too much. Tan has nothing to do. These profiteers don't care about the life and death of the people and drive up the price of grain. The people are miserable. In order to strictly control the price of grain, Tan can only kill the chickens to warn the monkeys. A total of two big grain merchants were killed that day. Head, this has deterred a lot of profiteers, and the price of grain in Taizhou Prefecture has finally stabilized, and the price of 1,300 Wen per shi that was raised by grain merchants has stabilized at 500 Wen per shi."
Tan Lun explained modestly, revealing the information that the food price in Taizhou Prefecture has stabilized without any trace.
Sure enough, after Xu Hai heard the words, he greatly appreciated Tan Lun's deeds, and at the same time belittled Zhu Pingan, "The food price is stable, and the people can be stable. This is what an official who pleads for the people should look like, unlike some people. In the face of the flood, the people are struggling to survive, and they have colluded with grain merchants to drive up grain prices in the name of the government for their own self-interest! Such an official is really a shame to my generation, and I am ashamed to be with him!"
While talking, Xu Hai and others stepped into the Fujia Grain Store.
Before their feet hit the ground, they saw Fu Jialiang walking out of several angry ordinary people.
"Bah! There is no food at all, so why open a store!"
"That's right, yesterday they said there was food for today, but today we came with money and told us that there was no food?!"
"Fuck! They ran out of food at that time. They thought the price of food was low, so they secretly sold food on the black market! The price of food on the black market is skyrocketing! Last time the family really couldn't get rid of the pot, so I went to the black market, mom Yes, let’s not say that death is expensive, and the food is still poor, and it will be gone if we go late, let’s go quickly.”
Several ordinary people cursed angrily and walked out of the Fujia grain shop. After going out, they felt puzzled and turned their heads to spit a few mouthfuls of phlegm at the grain shop.
what happened? Is the grain shop out of food?
Xu Hai and the others stepped into the grain store, and before they could ask any questions, they heard the grain store clerk say to them indifferently, "I'm sorry, my lords, the store is out of food, you should go to another place to have a look. "
"I see that your store has just opened for business. Why is there no food so soon?" Xu Hai asked curiously.
"I'm really sorry, the food stock in the store has been sold out five days ago. The opening today is to tidy up the store, and the store is about to close. The store will reopen when there is food. "
The store clerk was talking, while arranging the things on the counter of the grain store, packing them for filing, really looking like he was about to close the store.
"I wonder when we will have food in our store?" Xu Hai asked again.
"It's hard to say. It may be ten days and a half months, or it may be one or two months. Who can say for sure."
The store clerk replied without raising his head, his tone was very cold, as if deliberately driving the customers out.
"I don't know how to sell the food in our store?" Wang Meng asked.
"Five hundred wen, of course it's five hundred wen per stone. This is the price set by the mansion, and the shop is very well-behaved." The grain store clerk seemed to have been trained. When someone asked the price, he would automatically change the price. I reported it.
Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, and glanced at Xu Hai and the others, as if to say, look, I’m right, the price of grain in our Taizhou prefecture has stabilized at 500 wen per shi this price.
"But it's a pity, there is a price but no food." The shop assistant twitched the corners of his mouth, his tone full of laughter.
"Gentlemen, you should go to other stores to have a look." The store clerk said as if seeing off customers.
When Xu Hai and the others turned around, they were going to look at other grain stores, but they heard the store clerk behind him say: "Actually, if you go to other stores, it is probably for nothing. Other stores are also like this, with prices but no grain. "
"If you really want to buy grain, you might as well go to the black market. There should be grain there. How do I know, hehe, don't ask, I won't tell you if you ask, and it means that I don't know anything."
The store clerk said to Xu Hai and the others with a mysterious expression on his face. Speaking of this, if you ask again, you won’t say anything.
