Chapter 19 Treat the animals and have their own way of animals

Li Xiuning was also speechless.

The grain merchants in Guanzhong could have stopped, even if the price of 80 yuan per bucket of grain was sold, although they would have lost costs, they would not have lost more.

However, they were reluctant to test Chen Ying and the court's bottom line. As the fleet under Xie Hui arrived at Luokoucang, more than 5 million stone of grain, and 30,000 people around Luoyang were requisitioned to be responsible for transporting it, and the Luokou warehouse, which was already about to bottom, was filled in an instant.

Naturally, the fleet could not enter Guanzhong, but the grain piled up in Xin'an, Mianchi and Luoyang City had already become a hill.

Some people in Hedong and Hebei who want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune have also used their own channels to smuggle grain in Guanzhong, and in fact, even if it is harvested next autumn, Guanzhong will no longer have the worry of famine.

Li Xiuning actually hated these grain merchants who had lost their conscience, because these grain merchants fell into the well and corroded the foundation of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, this time Chen Ying made a lot of money, in fact, Chen Ying made a small proportion of money, excluding the loss of travel, storage and transportation, in fact, the difference he earned per stone of grain was less than ten yuan. But it can't stand a lot of food, more than 10 million stone grains, as much as a million yuan.

Although the grain does not earn much, it is not even as much as the clans of the Tang Dynasty. Chen Ying gave them the grain they took out at a price of fifty yuan per bucket, and they earned more than ten times as much. On top of that, they also gained a relatively good reputation, which a thousand dollars could not buy.

Chen Ying earned the most, in fact, it is still Datang Tongli Money Village, a loan of 1.5 million guan plus 3 million guan from the imperial court, a total of 4.5 million guan, a profit of nearly 900,000 guan in a year, of course, there is also a part of the pledge of the wealthy industry in Guanzhong, now that the grain shorting has gone bankrupt, they will definitely not be able to repay the loan on time within next year, Chen Ying has the right to auction these properties.

Chen Ying could even consider auctioning off these properties at a higher price than the original price, and he could earn five million yuan within the next year. You must know that Datang's annual financial income is only more than 5 million yuan, which is simply rich and rivals the country.

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying and asked, "Chen Lang, is the price of grain still falling in Guanzhong?" ”

Chen Ying nodded and said: "It will fall, there are still more than three million people in Guanzhong, even if this more than 10 million stone of grain is still not enough to eat, so we have to force them to spit out the grain, which is called taking it from the people and using it for the people." ”

Although because the Eastern Turks sent envoys into the pass, in order to prevent the Turks from seeing the truth in the pass, Chen Ying could only be forced to fight a decisive battle in advance, and he would continue to suppress this grain price.

After all, although Chen Ying was the main force involved in the grain war in Guanzhong, this net also caught many grain merchants who took the opportunity to fish. These people's grain has been transported to Guanzhong, and as the so-called goods die on the ground, Chen Ying will never let these grains out of Guanzhong again.

Grain prices continue to fall, and these grain merchants who want to fish in troubled waters will also be forced to sell, and the grain in their hands, after all, once they are transported back, the price will be higher.

Of course, in order to make up for these grain merchants who were transported into the customs, Chen should buy all their grain at a price of 30 yuan per bucket. At this time, the grain in Chen Ying's hands still remained nearly nine million stones.

But this war is not over yet. The grain controlled by the Guanzhong Grain Merchants Group is almost nearly five million stones, and Chen Ying needs them to spit out these grains.

The price of thirty yuan was still too high, and in order to make up for the losses of the people, Chen Ying decided to reduce the price of five yuan per bucket, that is, twenty-five yuan per bucket.

The grain merchants in Guanzhong will have even more headaches at that time.

They're going to lose their money.

……

Chang'an went completely crazy, and as the price of food fell, the people were so excited that they sang and danced. After nightfall, fireworks can be seen everywhere in Chang'an City, and the sky that was originally well versed in the absence of any starlight is now infected by colorful fireworks.

In July, the air was scorching. Although it was sweltering, it did not stop the enthusiasm of the people, and the entire Chang'an City was shrouded in bright lights and surrounded by a lively atmosphere.

All kinds of people crowded the streets and alleys of Chang'an City at the same time, some were lounging, some were shopping, some were looking for good couples and friends, and some were chanting poems in remote teahouses, and they were elegant.

At this moment, all the people who appeared on the street had a big smile on their faces, a sincere smile that had never appeared before.

In the crowd on the street, there were three people crowded, it was Li Jiancheng, Wei Zheng, and Fang Xuanling.

Li Jiancheng's originally gloomy face finally appeared with a smile, and Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling were no different from ordinary people, looking around from time to time, attracted by the lively noise.

Li Jiancheng is not unmoved by these scenes, all this is not in his eyes, but in his heart. To be honest, Li Jianchengcai has not seen such jubilation and joy of the people for many years.

Li Jiancheng didn't speak or look along the way, and the three of them had already arrived at the south gate from time to time, and the crowd here was even more crowded, shouting, applauding, noisy, talking, firecrackers, and cheering...... All kinds came at the same time, although it seemed a little noisy, but this kind of noise was a rare scene in the seven years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Jiancheng's eyes were a little moist, the Tang Dynasty in his dream was like this, and the people were satisfied and happy. In particular, the worries of hunger are relieved, and the streets and alleys of Chang'an are filled with the fragrance of food, including mutton soup cakes, Hu cakes, roast mutton, and the sweet and greasy glutinous rice fragrance.

Li Jiancheng knew very well that it was not the princes of the Manchu Dynasty who created all this, nor the family lords who helped them when Li Tang founded the country, but Chen Ying.

The worry of famine in Guanzhong this time also made Li Jiancheng completely see the face of the clan gatekeeper, and Li Jiancheng's mind unconsciously appeared in his head, and Chen Ying painted a grand blueprint for him.

Li Jiancheng finally came back to his senses from this mysterious environment, he looked at Fang Xuanling and said: "Fang Qing, your five strategies, I have already done the disarmament, and I am ready to do the rest of the items one by one, but you, the initiator, can't be Shi Ran as a watcher, who advocates, who implements, your own suggestions, you must do it yourself." ”

Fang Xuanling smiled disappreliantly: "What is Your Majesty most anxious to do right now?" ”

Li Jiancheng said while thinking: "I hope that you can come forward to preside over the Ministry of Officials and eliminate the number of officials, but the most urgent thing at the moment is to announce the reduction of the clan's seal." ”

Wei Zheng shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, what you are most anxious to do now, the Turkic envoy is about to enter Chang'an, how to deceive the Turkic envoy, this is the most important thing!" ”

The corners of Li Jiancheng's mouth twitched and said, "Then I ...... Chen Ying must be transferred back to Chang'an. ”

Wei Zheng nodded silently and said, "It should be the best choice to let General Chen deal with the Turkic envoys!" ”

……

In just five days, Yu Wenhua seemed to have passed five years, and he never thought that Chen Ying would actually transfer grain from Jiangnan, and he was still unaware. In fact, Chen Ying not only asked Xie Hui to help transport grain, but also transported grain from Lin Weiguo in the Indochina Peninsula. Lin Xi Guoguo, because of the big killer of Zhancheng rice, the rice in Linyi Country is as cheap as soil.

Zhang Zhongjian's ocean-going fleet could exchange a kitchen knife for a few pennies for two stones of rice in Linyi Kingdom, and the average price was less than one penny per bucket. Of course, if you exchange it for cloth with excellent air permeability, the price paid for a boatload of thousands of stone grain is only a few pieces of cloth.

The key is that Zhang Zhongjian has such a cheap deal, and he still wants to save it, anyway, his subordinates are all pirates who are used to buying and selling without capital, and let them spend money to buy things, which is a bit too high for their morality.

As Zhang Zhongjian prepared to fully withdraw from Zhuzi Island and all the forces in the Indochina Peninsula, Zhang Zhongjian and Chen Ying did a huge price of armed sales business, Zhang Zhongjian used more than 3 million stone to get free grain, and exchanged Chen Ying for one million three-edged arrows and more than 20,000 folding shields, as well as a considerable number of spears.

In fact, there are too many accidental factors caused by the food crisis in Guanzhong, and once the autumn harvest is made next year, the lack of food can meet the consumption of the people in Guanzhong, and it can also save money for the surrounding areas.

In this case, the grain they keep will also fall sharply, and you must know that the grain in the harvest year is only five yuan.

A servant told Yu Wenhua: "Sir, today's grain has dropped by five cents, and seven more grain families have committed suicide!" ”

Li Yuanji was depressed at this time and wanted to vomit blood, he easily accumulated millions of family fortunes, this time they all smashed into the grain war, the result was good, in just five days, the original million family fortune, at this time it was less than 300,000.

The corners of Li Yuanji's mouth were blisters, and he said hurriedly: "Sir, what should we do now?" ”

A shopkeeper hurriedly said: "It's all damn Chen Ying's ghost......

Li Yuanji said angrily: "Then kill him!" ”

"It's useless!" Yu Wenhua shook his head and said, "If Chen Ying is so easy to kill, how can he survive until now?" He has more than 300 guards in and out, and he usually doesn't go out of Chenjiabao, and if you want to deal with him, you will bring humiliation on yourself! ”

Li Yuanji's eyes were cracked and said: "This king doesn't believe it, there are still people in this world who can't be killed, so I will invite him to come to the house as a guest, and when the time comes, he will be poisoned, and I will feed myself a glass of poisonous wine like the second child......"

"It's useless!" Yu Wenhua sighed and said, "If killing is useful, how can the old man be soft?" Now that Chen Ying has handed over the grain to the government, Chen Ying is not there, the danger of food famine has been solved, and it is useless! ”

Li Yuanji said urgently: "Then what now?" ”

Yu Wenhua said solemnly: "I can only wait!" ”

"Wait?" Li Yuanji looked at Yu Wenhua suspiciously.

Yu Wenhua looked at the north and muttered: "Now it's up to Jieli Khan, as long as he doesn't coax, we still have a chance!" ”

In fact, as Yu Wenhua said, now the decisive battle between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks is about to break out, once the Tang Dynasty wins, it will naturally sit firmly, once Li Jiancheng is defeated, no matter how much food Guanzhong has, it is not enough for the Turks to rob, at that time, the food crisis will break out, and the money and food they lost can be recovered.

Chen Ying received an order from Li Jiancheng to be responsible for receiving the Turkic envoys, Chen Ying did not dare to slack off, and then rode his horse and led his guards back to Chang'an City.

Now that Chen Ying has increased his defense force, he has become the public enemy of the family gate lord in the entire Guanzhong, and I don't know how many people want to kill him.

Just as he entered the city gate, Chen Ying looked at the energetic soldiers and frowned slightly.

Although most of the elites in Datang Guanzhong are like goods, they are afraid that the Turks will think that Datang is bluffing, so they thought about it and Chen Yingdao: "Go and recruit three thousand old, weak, sick and disabled victims, how miserable it is, it is better to be too thin!" ”

Soon, Chen Ying used 3,000 victims to put on the armor of the soldiers defending the city, and let them replace the originally tall soldiers in Guanzhong.

When the Eastern Turkic envoys arrived in Chang'an City, especially when they looked at those weak and impenetrable faces and skinny figures, they looked at them with disdain.

However, Bu Lugen, dressed as a member of the ordinary mission, pretended to approach the soldiers defending the city and looked at them up close.

It didn't take long, and when Chen Ying led the Eastern Turkic mission into Chang'an City.

A solemn look appeared on Bu Lugen's face.

Zhi Sili smiled and said, "National Teacher, what's wrong?" If the Tang army is just such a good thing, this sweat alone can set foot on Chang'an City with 6,000 elites under his command! ”

Bu Lugen shook his head and said: "Look at their hands, the hands holding knives, and the hands holding hoes, the force is different, and the position of the cocoons on the palms is not the same, these are not the elite of the Tang Dynasty, and even they are not even ...... army."

Zhi Sili said with a solemn face: "What do they mean by doing this, or if it is not for the national teacher to be careful, they must have been concealed, could it be that they have opened their nets early?" ”

Bu Lugen shook his head and said, "It's not clear yet, we have to get more news!" ”

Chen Ying stared at the Turkic envoy behind him with the spare light of his eyes, and looked at the respectful attitude of Obsessive Thinking Power towards Bu Lugen, and he understood that Obsessive Thinking Power was just a small role on the surface, and the real person who spoke was this unattractive Litnu.

With Chen Ying's stubbornness, he entered the Taiji Palace through the Chengtian Gate.

At this time, Li Jiancheng and the important ministers of the three provinces of the inner court were staring at the door of the main hall.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he enthusiastically opened his arms, trembled his beard and shouted: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Jieli Khan has learned that you have become the Great Emperor, and has specially brought a million Turkic warriors to see you and express to you, brothers in the desert steppe, the most sincere congratulations. How fast, just a few years have passed, and our little prince has become the emperor......"

Li Jiancheng was so angry that his face turned blue.

Chen Ying's eyes stared sharply at the loss of thought.

Lost his thinking power and was suddenly dumbfounded.

Li Jiancheng laughed coldly: "Which bastard should I be, it turned out to be you little wolf cub!" ”

Obsessed with his ability to think was taken aback.

The courtiers in the main hall looked at each other.

Xiao Shiwen and Chen Shuda both thought that Li Jiancheng had lost the emperor's prestige.

In fact, they had too little contact with the Turks. I don't know at all that the Turks are also afraid of power and not morality.

Li Jiancheng shouted: "Stubborn and lose thinking power, although it is an old acquaintance, the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty is not to be abolished, you give me, kneel down and speak!" ”

The two warriors in the palace immediately ran over and pressed their stubborn thinking to the point of half-kneeling.

Stubbornly shouted angrily: "Little prince, is this you, the etiquette of receiving guests?" ”

Li Jiancheng sneered: "Datang treats guests with courtesy, treats livestock, and also has its own way of livestock. I am no longer the prince of the past, I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the king of a country, how can I allow you to be here, little prince, little prince shouting nonsense? ”

Stubbornly unable to think about it, he looked up at Li Jiancheng above.

He just wanted to argue, when he saw Chen Ying make a gesture to wipe his neck,

Suddenly, he was stunned.

Li Jiancheng continued: "Jieli is a khan, when you see me, you also have to call me brother, you are a little agent, you dare to be in front of me, arbitrary, if I tolerate you, the world, hundreds of millions of subjects, how will I look at me?" Pull this animal to the Suzaku Gate and behead it, hang its head outside the west gate, and put a white silk next to it, with only four words written on it: 'Death to those who break the oath!' ””

The samurai in the palace set up their stubbornness and dragged out.

The stubbornness was so frightened that he cried out for mercy in his mouth, shaking his hands and kicking his feet.

Wei Zheng hurriedly stepped out, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, people who are outsiders have always refused to obey the king, they don't know etiquette, and they are rude, just hand over to Honglu Temple to reprimand." Besides, if the two countries fight each other, and do not behead the envoys, please be gracious, reprimand such a vulgar person, and send him back, that is! ”

Li Jiancheng winked at Chen Ying and said: "That's what I said, now that I killed this person, it was his master who betrayed the alliance, and I won't accept him!" ”

Chen Ying bowed down and said: "The minister asks for an order, where will he be held, is it the court or the Beiya?"

Li Jiancheng groaned: "No matter how you say it, you are also an envoy, so you can be detained in the political affairs hall!" ”
