A group of grain merchants in the county government room chattered and complained endlessly, but Zhu Ping'an was very patient, did not interrupt any of the grain merchants' complaints, and listened carefully, occasionally nodding, until he heard that the grain merchants themselves complained and complained.

The room fell silent all of a sudden, so quiet that the grain merchants could only hear their own heartbeats.

I am most afraid of the sudden silence of the air...... The sudden silence of the class room made the grain merchants panic inexplicably.

Did we overreact? Some grain merchants began to reflect uneasily.

However, this is not to blame us, what Fang Cai County Zun said about defining the price of grain in Jingnan was too shocking, and the impact on us was too great, and we couldn't control ourselves for a while.

However, the silence lasted only a second before it was broken. A gentle voice broke the silence of the room and saved the grain merchants from their unease.

"As you have just said, grain procurement is difficult, the distance is long, the freight is high, and there are many risks...... These are the actual difficulties you have encountered, and they are all facts, and this official can understand them. Well, when defining food prices, all of these factors need to be taken into account, do you have anything else to say? ”

After no grain merchant complained about his grievances, Zhu Ping'an asked everyone warmly.

Belch?

The county is very wrong.

At this time, not only the shopkeeper Yang found out, but also a number of grain merchants discovered it in hindsight.

We are so uncooperative, shouldn't the county be angry, why are you still so patient and gentle?! There is an idiom called happiness and sorrow, the Tao is ideal, and the county should not be overly angry with us, right?!

"Back to the county, there is no more. We have already talked about all the difficulties, and I ask the county to think twice. ”

The grain merchants glanced at each other and spoke one after another.

"Ladies and gentlemen, my official understands your difficulties, but defining grain prices is related to the overall situation of people's livelihood and stability in Jingnan County. The price of food still has to be set. Zhu Ping'an nodded when he heard this, glanced at the grain merchants present, and said in a firm tone.

That's right! This should be the reaction that the county should have! This is the attitude that the government should have! Hearing Zhu Ping'an's insistence on defining grain prices, a group of grain merchants felt normal.

"Combining various factors, one stone of grain ......" Zhu Ping'an paused when he said this, squinted his eyes and thought for a few seconds before opening his eyes, looking at the grain merchants with burning eyes, and then said, "One stone of grain is priced at two thousand Wen, what do you think?" ”

"County Honor...... We are really hard, one stone of grain is 2,000 Wen...... Yes?! What the?! Two thousand texts?! The little shopkeeper who was blinded by the shopkeeper Yang, reflexively got up to object, and only halfway through the words, only to react in hindsight The price of the county is two thousand pieces of grain for one stone, and suddenly "Ah" A scream came out, and the shocked eyes were about to pop out, and his mouth was open enough to fit into a fist, and then he swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva in succession before he said the next words.

However, no one laughed at him at this moment! Because all the grain merchants present, including Yang Zhen, the shopkeeper of Yang Ji Grain Store, were all stunned! The expression reaction is not much better than his!

"What?! Two thousand texts?! ”

The grain merchants exclaimed one by one in amazement! Can't believe their ears!

One stone of grain 2000 Wen!

I'm my mother! I can't be mistaken?! Now the market price outside is only 1,340 wen for one stone of grain, and the county is actually priced at 2,000 wen for one stone of grain?!

The county lord sitting on it shouldn't be a grain merchant pretending, right?! The grain merchants widened their eyes one by one, and looked up at Zhu Ping'an who was sitting in the first seat in disbelief, at this moment they not only didn't believe their ears, but even their eyes didn't believe it.

"Well, it's a little low, isn't it? Also, the long distance and high risk of grain procurement are high, and the cost is getting higher day by day...... Then price 2,500 wen per stone of grain! ”

Zhu Ping'an squinted his eyes and paused, then spoke.

What the?!! One stone of grain is priced at 2,500 ?!! 2,500 !!

Smack!

When a grain merchant heard this, he was shocked and planted down from his chair! It's not true that I'm muttering to myself when I fall to the ground, I must have heard it wrong, I must have heard it wrong......

Another grain merchant suspected that he was dreaming, and quietly reached out and pinched his thigh, which made him grin in pain, only to believe that it was not a dream, it was true.

Surprise! Exultation! Ecstasy!

One stone of grain is two thousand five hundred wen! Compared with the current market price, it has doubled!

Mutter......

The sound of a group of grain merchants swallowing saliva in unison sounded in the county government office, and it was difficult to control themselves.

County...... Could the county be deliberately talking the opposite?! Entertain us, huh?!

The surprise came so suddenly and violently that the grain merchants couldn't believe it was real.

"In Jingnan, the price of one stone of grain is 2,500 Wen, do you have any opinions?"

Zhu Ping'an asked again in a warm voice under the disbelieving eyes of the grain merchants.

"Nope! No comments! ”

A group of grain merchants opened their mouths one after another, their heads shook like electric fans, joking, one stone of grain is two thousand five hundred wen, how can we have an opinion, I'm afraid you have an opinion!

"County ...... County Zun, is it really necessary to price 2,500 wen for one stone of grain? Shouldn't it be the county that honors you for entertaining us?! ”

The little shopkeeper who was blinded by Shopkeeper Yang was pushed out again, and on behalf of a group of grain merchants, he carefully asked about the point they were most worried about.

Suddenly, all the grain merchants looked at Zhu Ping'an, there was no more serious observation than at this moment, their eyes did not blink, they were concentrated, they were engrossed, and they did not miss any of Zhu Ping'an's facial expressions, they were worried that this was an empty joy.

At this moment, lest Zhu Ping'an sneer, and add one more sentence, hum, think beautifully, you can dream of it!

"Defining grain prices is related to the overall situation of the county's economy and people's livelihood and stability, and it is not a joke! If you have no opinions, or the opinions are not enough to be adopted, the official will draft a text and seal it and notify the whole county! From the time when the notice is posted: The price of grain in Jingnan County is 2,500 wen per stone! ”

Zhu Ping'an glanced at him and said with a serious face.

"No opinion, of course no opinion!" The little shopkeeper shook his head again and again, and his heart was pounding, trying to control his expression, but he still couldn't control his grin.

It's OK!

It's true!

It turned out to be true!

The grain merchants were overjoyed, as if they had drunk two catties, their faces were flushed with excitement, their blushing faces were blooming like flowers, and they rubbed their hands vigorously excitedly!

They all wanted to run up at this moment, hold the county honor's face, and bite hard.

Excitement and joy hit every cell in their bodies, and they were almost crazy with excitement, if they didn't care that this was the county government, they could dance excitedly.

"This official has only one request, no one, any grain store, shall sell grain in limited quantities! How much grain, how much grain is sold! The official will send people to spot check from time to time, if you dare to sell limited quantities of grain, don't blame the official for being ruthless! ”

Zhu Ping'an stretched out a finger, glanced at everyone with burning eyes, and said with a serious face.

"We will obey the decree of the county! No limit on the sale of food! If there is a violation, let the county be honored! ”

A group of grain merchants responded without hesitation.

Just kidding, the prices are fixed, 2,500 wen per stone of grain, just like grabbing money, how can we sell grain in limited quantities, on the contrary, not only will we not sell grain in limited quantities, but we will also use all the forces we can to purchase grain from all parts of the country.

By the way, my fourth master is a local grain merchant in Bashu, I have to send him a letter and ask him to transport the grain to Jingnan for sale! Also, my sworn brother, I have to say that everyone earns money together......

Jingnan people are stupid and have a lot of money! Come on!
