The Rebirth of Han Yuxi

Chapter 916: Food shortage

Jiangnan was born with a major flood, and this matter quickly spread to the capital. Bayi Chinese W≠W≈W≥. ≠8=1≤Z≥W≥. =C ≤ O ≥ M is such a big thing, the court can not block the news.

The next day, food prices rose by 50%. The price of food for drought was four times that of previous years. The rise in food prices, the people can not afford to buy food. In addition to this, oil, salt, vinegar and so on have also risen in price, and the salt has nearly doubled.

Tie Kui’s wife, Xiao Shi, heard the wind and was uneasy. He called Zhong Shantong with a big belly: “Now there is a mess outside, food is also a price every day, and we should save more food in our house.” Now, at this time, I have no heart to worry about.

Zhong Shantong said calmly and said: "Mrs. I have a good baby, and there is a master in the house!" Shaw gave birth to a daughter before, and now this is the second child! Although Tie Kui now has two sons under his knees, Zhong Shantong knows that Tie Kui is still looking forward to the blind.

Seeing Xiao's face uneasy, Zhong Shantong thought about it and said: "Mrs. Reassured, the food in the house is enough for us to eat for two or three months." Tiefu is just a small head, and the big head is on Zhuangzi.

Since Tiekui heard that Yuxi said that there was a drought in the northwest, he began to worry about it and then began to pay for food. Because of the special status of Tiekui, if he is not good for the impact of the big grain, he will let the chrome come out. Up to now, the amount of food stored on Zhuangzi is very impressive. Of course, these foods are not for people in Tiefu, but for preparing to sell. Now that food is tight and the price of food is so fierce, this batch of food will definitely buy a good price.

When Xiao heard this, his heart was a little bit safe: "If the flood disaster in the south of the Yangtze River is true, it will not be two or three months." This means that Zhong Shantong will buy some more food to save.

Zhong Shantong shook his head and said: "Madam, although Jiangnan and Taiyuan, Shandong and other places have been affected, but Liaodong has a bumper harvest this year, so the wife does not have to worry about not eating food at the time."

When Xiao heard this, this was done.

In the evening, Zhong Shantong and Tiekui talked about this: "Quaizi, the current price of food is four or five yuan and one stone. Do we put the grain in our hands?" When they bought it, they were two or two silver and two stones. Now I sold it and earned seven times.

Tiekui shook his head and said: "Don't worry, this is just the beginning. After that, the food will become more and more expensive." In a few days, the grain will not be late.

Zhong Shantong also has concerns: "Quaizi, Liaodong has a good harvest this year. When the grain in Liaodong is shipped to Beijing, the grain will definitely fall."

Tiekui laughed when he heard this and said: "Don't tell if Liaodong's food will be shipped. Even if it is shipped, the disaster will be so severe this year, and the grain will definitely rise." Liaodong output is not much, in previous years It is also necessary to purchase large quantities of food from places such as Taiyuan.

When Zhong Shantong heard this, he couldn’t help but say: "I heard that the food in the northwest is very cheap. I don’t know if it is true?" Beijing said that the food in the northwest is cheap and should not be fake.

Tiekui knows more about the things in the northwest and said: "The grain in the northwest has not risen, but the price is higher. The rice noodles are 30 cents a pound, the coarse grain is 20 cents a pound, only the artichokes are cheaper, only four yuan. A pound. "The grain in the northwest is sold by the government's grain shop, and the price is also dead. However, it is not as good as the capital. The purchase of grain in the northwest is based on the population. Unlike the capital, the city can store a large amount of grain.

Zhong Shantong said: "In this case, the rice noodles should be three-two-two-two-one stone. How can the rice noodles be so expensive, more than seven times more expensive than the artichokes?"

Tiekui said: "The rice noodles in the northwest are purchased from Jiangnan, and the amount is very small, but the artichokes in March are a bumper harvest. The grain storage is too much to be piled up, and it is naturally cheaper." After a pause, Tiekui said "In fact, it is not cheap. When I bought the artichokes from the people, it was two yuan and a pound. Now the selling price is twice the original price."

Zhong Shantong didn't think there was anything: "Four books and a pound of money are actually not expensive." If the price of food in Beijing only doubles, I believe that the people in Beijing will wake up.

Tiekui heard this and couldn’t help but say: “Yes! It’s not expensive, although it’s twice as expensive as the acquisition, but the people can still afford it.” Unlike the capital, the people can’t afford the food, even if it’s The whole grain can't be bought.

In just five days, the price of food has doubled. The common people waited in the grain shop early, but the grain merchants were not stupid. They closed the door after selling the prescribed amount every day. This situation has caused confusion and panic.

Meng Nian said with anxiety: "Wang Ye, this will not work, you can't let the food go up again." These days, the entire capital is quickly becoming a pot of porridge.

Yan Wushuang put down the fold in his hand and said: "When the grain merchants are forced to hand over the grain, they can maintain it for a while. After that? What should I do?" The food in Beijing is basically supplied by Jiangnan and Shandong and Taiyuan. Nowadays, these places have suffered from droughts and floods. They are self-sufficient and there is food supply to the capital. Because the grain merchants know this truth, they dare to rise so fiercely.

Meng Niandao: "Liaodong this year's harvest should not be bad, wait until the wheat harvest in October, and then transfer some food to Beijing." This can stabilize the chaos of the capital.

Yan Wushuang said: "The grain produced in Liaodong is not enough in the supply army. Where is the grain-adjustable Beijing."

Yan Wushuang does not intend to supply the food of Liaodong to Beijing. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Beijing, and the food needed is not a small amount. Yan Wushuang will not let the soldiers under his hand hungry for the people of Beijing.

Meng Nian squirmed his lower lip. In the end, he did not continue to persuade: "What about the Beijing city? If you don't have a grain, you can't settle down. Whenever there is someone who will take the opportunity to make trouble?"

Yan Wushuang said faintly: "Dare to be chaotic, kill is." Killing, it is normal for Yan to be as good as eating.

Meng Nian did not continue this topic. Yan Wushuang’s decision was not something he could change: “Wang Ye, I have already checked out, and killed Lin Gui’s Liu Yongnan who guarded Linzhou City. This person was a fireman when he entered the army. It has been followed by Yunqing, which is the confidant of Yunqing. "If it is not a confidant, it is impossible for him to guard Linzhou City." This place is also an important military base.

Yan Wushuang stood up and said: "Yun Qing's confidant is really much." In the northwest, the generals who guard the party, are all Yunqing's confidants. His people contacted these people and wanted to attack them. All of them came back. In this regard, Yan Wushuang had to admire Yunqing, and even let the people who followed him die like this, he is not as good as himself.

Yan Wushuang does not want to think about it. Now, one of the generals in the northwest guarding one side is not following the cloud engine from the pile of dead people. The friendship between life and death is not how much money can be exchanged. This is also why Yuxi will be patient with them, because she knows that although these people have opinions on her, they have no intentions for Yunqing. In addition, these people are not stupid, they are getting better and better with Yunqing, their future is bright, and they are not pumping their brains. So they may be betrayed by Yunqing.

Meng Nian said: "After all, it is a soldier who has been with him for so many years." In fact, if it wasn't for the rift that was smashed in the past, it would almost be overwhelmed by the North Army, and Yun Qing can now use more generals.

In the evening, Yan Wusou returned to the backyard. Looking at the daughter of the powder carving jade, Yan Wushuang’s mood is much better.

After using dinner, Yuchen said: "Wang Ye, I heard that the food in Beijing has risen to 50 cents a pound?" Yuchen refers here to coarse grains, and the price of these fine grains is even higher.

Yan Wushuang sighed: "These grain merchants are all fortunate. They know that the floods in the south of the Yangtze River cannot hide all the food and not sell them." Now the grain merchants are still selling grain, which is the result of his intervention.

Yuchen said with discretion: "Wang Ye, do you want to raise donations for the affected people?" The disaster in Jiangnan is so serious that the court must be devastated.

Yan Wushuang shook his head and said: "You take care of Abao and Achi, and you don't have to worry about it." Although Yuchen grew up with Han Yuxi, Yuchen is good at dealing with women in the house, not outside. At the beginning, he still wanted to adjust one or two, but now he has turned this out.

Yuchen was somewhat disappointed.

Three months after the drought, the affordability of the Northwest people has reached its limit. In Henan and other places to eat a bite can not kill, and now in the northwest, the people also staged a full-fledged martial arts for a bite of water. This is not the case. Lujiagou’s village next door has done another job in the morning because of the water distribution problem.

As long as there are no major casualties, the government is also blind. However, if it caused major casualties, the government did not care about one or two, and all the people involved were killed. Now in this world, when the prison is caught, it has to be eaten and served, and no one directly kills it.

In the northwest, the deterrent power of the government is still very large. Therefore, although many places are staged from time to time, there are very few major casualties. Even if there is, everyone is hiding and not letting the government know.

Yuxi put down his eyes and blinked his eyes. He read the memorials day and night, and his eyes were somewhat unbearable.

At this time, Xu Wu sent a discount to Linzhou City and Yanzhou City. The two places of Linzhou and Yanzhou are the most serious places in the northwestern drought. Yuxi now has some daring to see the folds of these two places.

After reading it, Yuxi was in a bad mood. Han Jianming, who just came in, said: "Yanzhou and Linzhou only died two hundred and fifty-eight people a day yesterday." Now this temperature, accidentally heatstroke. After the sun came out, I simply did not dare to go out.

Han Jianming said in silence: "There were more than 30 people who died in Yucheng yesterday." All of these people were too hot to weather.

Yuxi sighed: "I hope that in October, the situation will improve." In the face of natural disasters, people can really do very limited.

Han Jianming nodded and said: "It will definitely be." After a pause, Han Jianming said: "Yu Xi, I think we should let the people know the horrors of Henan and Shanxi." Some people will know that they are now. How happy it is. In this way, it also increases the prestige of Yuxi and Yunqing among the people.

Yuxi thought about it and nodded: "You can release the situation in Henan and other places, but you can't use the notice." It can be passed on by word of mouth, but the government does not come forward to promote these things.

Han Jianming nodded and said: "Yu Xi, now all over the place are in disaster, our food has to be saved." Now the food shortage, the food in their hands can be a bargain.

Yuxi said helplessly: "How to save?" Has been purchased in limited quantities, can not sell food.

Han Jianming said: "Reducing the number of purchases per person per month. The food saved can do a lot of things."

Yuxi shook his head and said: "It is not appropriate, this will inevitably lead to greater panic." The number of purchases per person per month has been accurately calculated, not to say a random number. The only limited number is actually enough for people to eat six or seven points. Yuxi thought about this kind of weather at the time, and couldn't do anything. It would be enough to eat six or seven minutes a day. But if it is lowered, it will not be.

When Han Jianming saw it, he knew that it would be useless and he could only give up.

Ps: The third is around nine o'clock.
