Hearing this, the housekeeper hurriedly retreated. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wang Laohu walked in the hall for a while, and his eyes opened, "West Tiger, East Tiger, South Tiger, you go quickly to invite Langya, Laiwu, Linzi, Kuiqiu, Maiqiu, Licheng... The big ones are coming."
"It's up, it's gone up again!" Wuyan-eup is extremely lively, and the price of mulberry trees is one by one.
The big mulberry farmers are not in the mood to continue to raise silkworms and harvest mulberry leaves.
They began to gouge mulberry trees to Zhong Li's house to sell, and later Zhong Li's family issued a silk notice, saying that the mulberry trees could be sold together with the land, and Zhong Li's family only had the right to use the land for three years, and it would still be returned to the original owner after three years.
As soon as the news came out, the small mulberry farmers no longer hesitated and began to sell mulberry trees to Zhongli's house.
Of course, the big families still kept a wait-and-see view, and they were very worried that the motives of the always shrewd Zhongli family to buy mulberry trees this time were not pure, so they did not dare to make a decisive decision.
"The head of the house, I have inquired, I have inquired" The housekeeper hurriedly ran in.
"Say, what the hell is going on?" Wang Laohu hurriedly grabbed the collar of the housekeeper and asked.
"The head of the house, it was Zhong Lijia who got a secret technique, saying that this kind of treasure can be made from mulberry trees," said the housekeeper, and took out a thin yellow fragment.
Wang Laohu held the fragment and felt very strange, "What is this thing?" ”
Jia Zai said, "What is it called? It seems like. ”
"Paper? Paper, what can this thing do? Wang Laohu was taken aback.
Jia Zai said, "I don't know."
"I don't know, then you don't want to inquire" Wang Laohu was furious.
The family master hesitated for a moment and said, "Family master, in order to inquire about this thing, we have already spent nearly a thousand Great Qi Tongbao, and if we continue to inquire about it, our cost will be higher and higher."
"The higher? The head of the family doesn't care, you tell the person who left the house that as long as the information he revealed is true, the head of the family doesn't care how much money is spent."
When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately retreated.
"Black Tiger, Black Tiger, do you see those big guys coming?"
Two days later, the price of mulberry trees in Wuyanyi rose even more, this time soaring, Zhongli's family did not receive new mulberry trees at all, but Wang Laohu and the big farmers began to make scalpers, devouring a large number of small mulberry farmers.
In this way, small households eat retail households, large households eat small households, and Wang Laohu eats large households, and finally the price of mulberry trees soars to the same high as the price of raw silk!
The soaring price of mulberry trees soon rushed out of Wuyanyi and began to spread to other parts of Qi State, followed by Qi's neighboring countries, Lu State, Wei State, Jin State, Yan State, Song State, Wu State, Qi State...
The whole Wuyanyi was in an uproar, the entire Qi country was in an uproar, and the whole Zhou world was in an uproar!
Countless merchants began to hoard mulberry trees in large quantities, although they did not know what the secrets of mulberry trees were, but everyone did this, and if they did not do it themselves, they would definitely suffer.
Acquisition, non-stop acquisition, devouring, non-stop devouring!
The country of Qi devoured the mulberry trees of the surrounding countries like a bottomless pit, and the saltless eup, like a bottomless pit within a bottomless pit, devoured the mulberry trees of all parts of the country of Qi.
The snowball grew bigger and bigger, and finally the price of the mulberry tree caught up with the woven silk and silk.
Now the court of Qi State can't sit still, and if it goes on like this, Qi State must be chaotic.
Qi Jinggong's brain hurt, he looked at Yan Ying and Ji Ran and said, "Look at it, what should the widow do?" ”
Yan Ying and Ji Ran got the impeachment of the soaring price of mulberry trees reported from various places, as well as the inquiries sent by the monarchs of Lu Guowei, Yan Guo, Jin Guoqi, Song Guo, Wu Guo and other places, asking what happened in Qi State?
Why is the economic order of our country messed up?
In ancient times, China was an agricultural and mulberry economy, do you think about the unstable mulberry, can the economy be stable, and the society can be stable?
They all came to ask for an explanation.
However, like the most distant Qin State, after Qin Jinggong learned of this, he called his henchmen together late at night to study what Qi wanted to do, and after dawn, Qin Jinggong ordered Qin Guoshi to step up the hoarding of mulberry trees, because they came to the conclusion that Qi State was going to use mulberry trees to build a large number of bows and crossbows.
You know, the mulberry tree is one of the main construction materials for bows and crossbows.
As we all know, the Qin State and the Qi State formed an irreconcilable Liang Zi during the Battle of Chu, do you say that he Qin State can not be worried?
Qi Jinggong didn't care about the mulberry price war at first, because he got the secret report that this was secretly manipulated by his beloved son Lu Di, and he wanted to laugh, but as the situation became more and more beyond his control, he couldn't sit still.
Ji Ran was the greatest economist in the Spring and Autumn Period, in fact, he has been paying attention to Lu Di's manipulation, except for the applause, he can't guess at all, what does this Gongzi Di want to do?
Yan Ying said, "Your Majesty, the soaring price of mulberry trees will definitely affect this year's crop planting, as well as the price of raw silk and cloth?" This matter has to be prevented! ”
Qi Jinggong thought that this was indeed the truth, if mulberry trees were planted in the farmland, what would Qi eat in the country?
Thinking of this, he was about to write a letter to tell Aiko that the matter should be stopped, but who expected to say, "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has considered well, and Your Majesty should immediately issue a decree prohibiting the planting of mulberry trees in the farmland where crops were originally planted in our country, and require strict supervision in all cities and towns."
"At the same time, the secret order allows our businessmen to slowly sell mulberry trees abroad"
Yes! Qi Jinggong and Yan Ying were dumbfounded at the same time when they heard this.
After Yan Ying and Ji Ran retreated, Ai Kong hurriedly ran in.
After Qi Jinggong heard Aikong's recital, his face turned black, "You go and send someone quickly..."
No salt eup, Zhongli Mansion.
"Harley Quinn, what are you panicking about?" I saw Lu Di drinking juice while soaking in the sun.
When Zhong Lichun saw Lu Di's appearance, he couldn't help but feel good and said, "Male rabbit, don't you know what the price of mulberry trees outside has grown like crazy?" ”
"Aren't we making too much of a fuss?"
Zhong Lichun gulped down the juice that Lu Di hadn't finished drinking.
Lu Di glanced at Zhong Lichun, taking advantage of me and not making such a profit!
"Hehe, don't worry, the mountain people have their own tricks! Tomorrow, you will secretly start selling mulberry trees..."
"Huh?" Zhong Lichun stared at Lu Di, Lu Di felt uncomfortable when he saw Zhong Lichun's sky-facing nose, turned his head and said, "Ah, what?" Just do it! ”
Zhong Lichun thought for a while, and then had an epiphany, "Okay, you male rabbit, this girl understands now, what are your ideas?" ”
"I didn't expect that looking at you, a kind person, would be so vicious in his conspiracy?"
With that, he kicked Lu Di's recliner over, and Lu Di rolled to the ground with a plop.
Lu Di jumped three feet high, "What do you know?" This is called killing the rich and helping the poor, don't you see that those small households and retail investors have made a lot of money by reselling mulberry trees? ”
Zhong Lichun was speechless when he heard this, it seems that these big businessmen who hoard mulberry trees are going to be unlucky!
"Head of the house, head of the house" Black Tiger hurriedly ran in.
"Haha, is the mulberry tree rising again?" Wang Laohu hugged the woman and drank a little wine, and enjoyed life very much.
Black Tiger wiped the sweat on his face and said, "The head of the family, no, no, it was the ugly girl from Zhongli's family who began to secretly sell mulberry trees."
"What?" Wang Laohu was taken aback.
"When did this happen?" Wang Laohu kept walking in the hall.
"It's the day before yesterday," said the Black Tiger.
"The day before yesterday? Why did you tell me about the day before yesterday now? Wang Laohu was furious.
