Chapter 1276: Isn't it a stroke of genius?

It's not what I want to see! That's not what I want to hear either!

Our trip is to convict Zhu Ping'an of colluding with grain merchants, driving up grain prices, and accepting bribes, not to see the work for relief, let alone to listen to some foolish people singing praises to Zhu Ping'an!

What can he do well with Zhu Ping'an's work-for-relief, as long as he is caught with the evidence of colluding with grain merchants, driving up grain prices, and accepting bribes, we can still condemn him to a major crime, and we can also make him irreversible!

Wait and see!

Wang Meng, Peng Cheng and others had black faces, and reminded Xu Hai and others to move forward on the grounds that they were on official business and could not be delayed, and they couldn't wait to go to Jingnan County to collect evidence of Zhu Ping'an's collusion with grain merchants, inflating grain prices, and accepting bribes!

On the way from Donghu Lake to Jingnan County, they did not see a single homeless person, nor did they see a single hungry person, but all they saw was a scene of birds singing and flowers, full of vitality, like a paradise, rice fields planted with vegetables, brand-new villages rising from the ruins, and ordinary people living and working in peace and contentment......

The East Lake Project Area is not far from Jingnan County, and they arrived at Jingnan County after walking for a while.

When they arrived at the north and south gates of Jingnan, Xu Hai and others found that the north and south gates of Jingbei had just been repaired, and they not only repaired the aging and damaged walls, battlement walls and daughter walls, but also built enemy platforms and arrow towers to strengthen the defensive function.

This is to guard against the Japanese invaders.

The East Lake is to solve the disaster of the flood in Jingnan for a hundred years, and the repair of the city wall is to prevent the Japanese ......

Putting aside the factors of virtue, let's just say that this is a cash-for-work. It is really amazing that Zhu Ping'an was able to combine the work-for-relief with the long-term peace and stability of Jingnan, adapt measures to local conditions, and turn decay into magic.

After entering Jingnan County, Xu Hai, Wang Meng and others were even more shocked.

Jingnan County is prosperous, the shops are lined up one after another, the pedestrians are weaving, the cars and horses are endless, the penetrating shouts of the small vendors come and go, and the faces are full of tranquility and comfort.

"Look, Kumon!"

Taiping Zhixian's excited voice woke everyone up from shock.

Following the excited gaze of Taiping Zhixian, Xu Hai and the others really saw an official document posted on the wall.

It is close at hand, with red letters on white paper, covered with the bright red seal of Jingnan Zhixian County, which reads: From today onwards, there will be 2,500 Wen per stone of grain in Jingnan County......

"Sure enough, it's an official document from Jingnan that defines grain prices!"

Seeing this big red official document, Wang Meng and others couldn't help but feel surging and excited if they had obtained a treasure.

Thou art very good!

Wang Meng glanced at Taiping Zhixian appreciatively, and Taiping Zhixian couldn't help but puff up his chest excitedly when he saw Wang Meng and others' appreciative eyes.

This is really a good start, what a good sign! As soon as he entered Jingnan, he discovered an important crime of Zhu Ping'an.

Sweep away the haze along the way!

Wang Meng and the others finally smiled, carefully tore off the official document, and put it away like a treasure.

"When I impeached Zhu Ping'an with Lord Liu, every word is a fact." Taiping Zhixian took the opportunity to show his merits.

"Hmm. With this official document, this official believes you. Wang Meng nodded encouragingly.

"Look, there's another official document ahead!"

At this time, Zuo Zhen's eyes were sharp, and he found another official document, and couldn't help but shout out.

"Huh? Really. Wang Meng and the others looked along, and sure enough, they were pleasantly surprised to see an official document defining the price of grain in Jingnan.

"There's one over there! And that, too, with one! There's also a ...... on that wall."

Before Wang Meng and the others could recover from the surprise, Zuo Zhen found that the voice of the official document sounded one after another.

What's going on?! Wang Meng and the others were stunned, why did they post so many official documents defining grain prices, is he Zhu Ping'an afraid that the world will not know about his crimes? ! Stickers are all over the city!

"There's a grain shop over there." Taiping Zhixian found a grain shop and hurriedly said to Wang Meng and others.

Sure enough, there was a grain shop in front of it that was open for business, called "Liu Ji Grain Shop", and the business looked very good.

"Let's go, let's take a look." Wang Meng said, and took the lead in walking towards the grain store.

Xu Hai and others followed closely and walked into this "Liu Ji Grain Shop", there were three shop guys in the store who were entertaining guests, and when they saw Wang Meng, Xu Hai and others entering the store, the shop guys greeted them very warmly.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this grain?" Wang Meng asked when he entered the store.

"Hehe, uncle, this grain in the small shop is two thousand five hundred wen per stone." The shopkeeper replied enthusiastically.

When Wang Meng heard this, he glanced at Peng Cheng, Zhang Wenbo and others, and his face was full of joy that could not be hidden.

The price in the grain shop is really 2,500 wen per stone! Hahaha, there are so many of us, there are officials in the department, there are people in the household department, there are people in the criminal department, there are people who supervise the imperial history, and there are people who have been in the East Factory, but they have all seen and heard!

Zhu Ping'an, now I see how you are still quibbling!

Wang Meng and the others couldn't help but look happy, and at this moment they felt that the victory was already in hand.

"However, uncle, you are here today, today is the birthday of our shopkeeper's grandmother, and we have a special discount of 100 wen for each stone of grain." The shopkeeper said to Wang Meng and the others with a smile on his face.

"Hahaha, man, didn't your shopkeeper's grandmother have a birthday yesterday, why did she live today?"

When the customers who bought food in the store heard this, they couldn't help but joke with a smile.

The shopkeeper replied very wittily, "Hehe, our shopkeeper's grandmother is older, and it's normal to remember wrong." ”

"Hahahaha...... Grandmother can remember wrong, and you shopkeepers can still remember wrong...... Come on, I won't joke with you anymore, load me a hundred catties of grain. The guest couldn't help but smile and said.

"Okay, sir." The shopkeepers were struggling to get food.

Xu Hai and the others also saw it, what kind of grandmother's birthday, this is obviously the store is looking for a reason to reduce the price of grain.

What's going on? Why did the store take the initiative to find a reason to lower the price of food?!

"Hehe, they're all from out of town." Seeing Xu Hai and the others surprised, the guests who bought grain smiled and explained to them, "Since our county magistrate defined the price of grain, grain merchants from all over the country heard that the price of grain in Jingnan is expensive and profitable, and they all come to Jingnan to sell grain. There is more grain in this grain shop, and the supply gradually exceeds demand, and the grain is transported all the way to it, and it can't be shipped back, and the grain merchants are trying to sell the grain at a lower price in order to sell the grain. I guess that in a few days, the price of this grain will go down. ”

Yes?!

Can it still be like this?!

Xu Hai, Tan Lun and others were stunned, there are other counties and counties in Taizhou Fucheng, and now there is no grain to sell on the market, only a small amount of grain can be sold in the black market, but the price of grain in the black market has risen to the sky, the black market in Taizhou Prefecture is 3,500 wen per stone, and the black market in Taiping County has risen to 3,800 wen per stone. But what about Jingnan, Jingnan has enough grain, and even enough to sell it at a reduced price, and the price of grain has dropped to 2,400 wen per stone, and there is a tendency to continue to reduce prices.

In this way, looking back at Zhu Ping'an's official document defining 2,500 wen per stone of grain, isn't it a stroke of genius......

Xu Hai and the others couldn't calm down for a long time.

Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, even wondered if he would follow Zhu Ping'an's example after he went back and define the grain price in Taizhou Mansion as 2,500 wen per stone!
