Joke, the Ministry of Industry sent people south to buy materials? How much does it cost, the people in the Ministry of Industry don't know? Which is the best deal, they can't be sure?

As for the threat Yan Lide mentioned, the materials in Guanzhong are a steady stream of output, and they can't buy them all the time, but they can dominate the market in Chang'an City, and some people want the business of Xingong, so they will rob the business of Chang'an City, and the materials still have a place to sell, one in and one out, and most of the time can be equal, as long as it is consumed, the Ministry of Industry will run out of patience sooner or later, plus the DPRK and China will be active, and in the end they will still compromise.

Even if the imperial court did not compromise, then they would follow Xuan Shijing's example, and the materials would be left on their Zhuangzi, and the Zhuangzi would be built, and sold to the farmers on the Zhuangzi.

These material dealers and the Ministry of Industry are deadlocked, the ball is getting bigger and bigger, and they are getting more and more worried, people's psychological defense line always has a bottom line, as the Chamber of Commerce invests more and more money in it, the psychological defense line of these shopkeepers is also becoming more and more fragile, and a few of them can't withstand it, and they have begun to hand posts to Yan Lide's mansion.

Yan Lide naturally happily received them.

didn't reach the appointed time but took the initiative to deliver the post, which shows that they are about to be overwhelmed.

If all the merchants in Chang'an City are huddled together, and the iron is general, the imperial court really can't do anything about them, whether they trade with the Ministry of Industry according to the market price, or sit on the ground and start the price, the Ministry of Industry has no temper.

But not all businessmen regard interests as more important than life, and not all businessmen will not come to trouble.

Many people know that there is never a harm in having a good relationship with the imperial court, this is the idea of a shrewd person among businessmen, if you get benefits, offend the official family, and have no backing, why bother? Even if you have a backer and offend the court, what good is it? The nobles of Chang'an City, who is short of money?

In the end, it's still a greedy word.

And these people who dare to go against the Ministry of Industry with their necks are all behind them, and these masters are not afraid of the Ministry of Industry and admit to death.

Dongshan County, the mansion of the Xuan family.

"Grandpa, this is what happened in Chang'an City in the past two days." Gao Jun said.

"There are always some businessmen who admit death money, and there are always some nobles who admit death money." Xuan Shijing smiled: "I admire their persistence." ”

"If it goes on like this, Long Shouyuan's side, there is still a little embarrassing, although there are a few businessmen who have defected, and there are those who propose a ninety percent price, but a few years ago, if you don't pick out the materials accumulated in the hands of these merchants, there will still be some small problems, but as long as you wait for the New Year, there will be no problem at all, and now you are in a hurry about time." Gao Jun said.

"Gao Jun, you and Chang Le went to Chang'an, brought a few brocade guards, checked those dead businessmen, who the main family behind them was, and told me when I came back." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes, Grandpa." Gao Jun responded.

In fact, you don't need to check too carefully, as long as you go to Xuanwu Tower and ask the money pile, you may know that the money pile has been mixed in Chang'an City for many years, and the details of the major businessmen in Chang'an City are also clear.

"Grandpa, what are you going to do after finding out the masters behind these people?" Gao Jun asked.

"It's easy to do, go and ask Your Majesty." Xuan Shijing said with a smile: "The master behind these businessmen, not afraid of the Ministry of Industry, not in awe of the court, must have a certain identity, the court can not be united in major events, this is not a good thing, take this opportunity to build a step for Your Majesty, find an excuse, and beat some people well, besides, I am also the supervisor of the new palace, if there is any problem in the new palace, I can't run, so, I still do my best, people are not for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, not to mention that I am not only for myself, but also for the court." ”

When Xuan Shijing talked about these businessmen with Qiandui in Chang'an before, he didn't know much about these businessmen, and only knew that some businessmen had the main family behind them, although the main family did not serve in the court, but the influence on His Majesty Li Er was very great.

For example, those old nobles back then, and the relatives of the Li Tang royal family.

If these people are involved, even if His Majesty comes forward, I am afraid it will not be an easy task.

Headache, an old guy like this doesn't enjoy his old age at home, he runs out to mix with something, and he also participates in the construction of the new palace, is it possible that he is disgusted that he has lived too long? Net will cause trouble.

If it's really these old guys, who are determined to fight against Xuan Shijing and the Ministry of Works, Xuan Shijing really has no tricks.

I hope not.

It's just that in this world, there are few things that go well and many things that backfire.

The news from Chang'an, behind those dead businessmen, there are still these old nobles, especially the side branches of the Li Tang royal family, there are several families that talk about seniority, and His Majesty Li Er has to call uncle.

With a "bang", Xuan Shijing slapped the table: "These old things! ”

"Grandpa is angry." Gao Jun arched his hand and said, "Didn't Grandpa say that this matter would be handed over to His Majesty?" ”

"Give it to Your Majesty?" Xuan Shijing sneered: "I said that it was handed over to Your Majesty, and these people ran to Your Majesty to disturb Your Majesty, and in the end, it was me who was criticized!" These people are one by one, and they can't help Datang, so they just jump out to fight against the court at this time. ”

Xuan Shijing calmed down for a long time, and then said: "Gao Jun, set the carriage, let's go to the palace to see Your Majesty." ”

"Grandpa is not afraid of being reprimanded by His Majesty?" Gao Jun asked.

"What are you afraid of, is it my fault?" Xuan Shijing asked rhetorically: "This time, taking this opportunity, I have to rectify them!" ”

Xuan Shijing was ruthless this time, these merchants in Chang'an City were manipulated by them, how many things were delayed, and how much effort was spent on him and the Ministry of Industry! Back and forth, or the Ministry of Industry dealt with it, or he Xuan Shijing dealt with it, and the matter of the businessman's materials was still not resolved after more than a month.

Xuan Shijing has never been a good person, since those merchants want to stock up on goods, then Xuan Shijing will let them hoard! Hoard hard! Stock up, don't cry!

The carriage followed the avenue of Dongshan County and headed towards Chang'an City.

Chang'an, Imperial Palace, Ganlu Palace.

"Your Majesty, Xuan Gong asks to see you." The small yellow door outside the Manna Hall walked into the hall and reported.

"Yo, Jing'er? It's become a rare guest, rare, announce him in. His Majesty Li Er said.

"No." The little yellow door went in response.

After a while, Xuan Shijing walked into the Manna Palace, bowed all the way, and walked to the hall.

"Minister Xuan Shijing, meet Your Majesty."

"Excuse me." His Majesty Li Er raised his head and said, "What's the matter, you came all the way from your comfort house to the palace?" Virtue and righteousness, give sitting. ”
