Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Chapter 63

Apply in the afternoon.

All the real bosses of Liaozhou City Grain Store came over.

Among them, Ji Rufeng was also called, a total of nine people.

The food in the huge Liaozhou City is controlled by these eight people in front of them.

They are not only the bosses of the grain shop in Liaozhou City, but also the heads of the major families in Liaozhou City.

Yes, the food in Liaozhou City is in the hands of these nine families.

When the weather is good, the common people can have surplus food.

If the harvest is bad, only they have food.

Not only in Liaozhou, but also in other places, even Chang'an City.

The strength of the aristocratic family in the Tang Dynasty is reflected in all aspects, and this is just one of them.

"Greetings to Lord Inspector."

Everyone saluted Fang Yuan.

"You are welcome, please sit down."

Fang Yuan got up to greet him, and smiled politely.

Except for Ji Rufeng, everyone else looked at the round table in the conference room.

They haven't tried this kind of meeting, but they know that it's very good to have a meeting.

Pei Yinghua was very knowledgeable, when choosing a seat, he sat opposite to Fang Yuan, and was also the main seat of the round table.

The tea is ready and the meeting is ready to begin.

But at this time, the heads of various families were attracted by the fragrance of tea.

"Inspector Fang, is this tea?"

Wang Zhicheng, head of the Liaoshan Wang clan, asked curiously.

He also has an identity, that is Wang Shiyu's clan uncle.

Wang Shiyu is a direct descendant of the Jinyang Wang family, and lived with him all the time during his stay in Liaozhou.

Because Wang Shiyu often visited Fangfu, he learned that the tea in Fangfu was refreshing, sweet and full of charm.

When I smelled the tea today, I felt the taste was attractive, and I felt refreshed when I smelled it. I remembered Wang Shiyu's words.

"Exactly!"

"This tea is specially made by the official, you can try it."

Fang Yuan chuckled and invited everyone to drink tea.

After speaking, he picked up the tea and took a sip.

Wang Zhicheng nodded, opened the tea cup with curiosity, and saw that the tea was like clear soup and green water.

Smelling it, the tea has a refreshing fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed.

Take a sip, you will feel mellow, sweet and fresh, with a thick taste!
“Good tea!”

"I've never had such a delicious tea!"

Wang Zhicheng said excitedly.

According to his knowledge, tea has always been bad for people to drink.

But now, to be able to drink such delicious tea from Fang Yuan's place, it's really surprising.

The other patriarchs also tried the tea one after another, and they all thought it was good tea, far from the ones they had tasted before.

"Inspector Fang, how do you make this tea?"

Wang Zhicheng asked curiously.

Let the state official pour him another cup of Meimei to drink.

"This is a commercial secret, no comment."

"This official is preparing to popularize tea in Liaozhou and even all over the country."

"From your own eyes, you must know the profit here, right?"

Fang Yuan laughed.

They were called today to talk about food.

But since they know about tea, let's popularize the profit of tea by the way.

"hiss!!!"

"I'm afraid it's comparable to coarse salt?!"

Everyone was silent at first.

Then Pei Yinghua gasped and said.

The cost of tea is almost zero, just the leaves.

But if such a delicious tea is made, it is estimated that countless people will like it.

As long as there are many people, the profits will be unimaginable, and may be comparable to the profits of salt.

When Wang Zhicheng and others heard this, they couldn't calm down, they all looked at Fang Yuan in shock, their eyes were full of shock.

Fang Yuan smiled without saying a word.

But in fact, I also admire Pei Yinghua's vision from the bottom of my heart.

As expected of a big family, their vision is different from that of ordinary people.

With a cup of tea, he saw such long-term value, no wonder their aristocratic family can last forever.

"Does Governor Fang want to cooperate?"

"Old man, the Xue clan of Fenyin, has outstanding martial arts, transportation across the country is not a problem!"

Xue Wenbo said loudly.

He is a martial artist and cannot understand the value of it.

But it must be worth it for Pei Yinghua to say that.

The others also looked at Fang Yuan, waiting for Fang Yuan's reply.

If Fang Yuan said that he wanted to cooperate, they would throw out olive branches one after another.

"I would like to, but I have no time to spare now."

"After this period of time is over, I will consider cooperating with you."

Fang Yuan shook his head and smiled.

It tastes great to catch them like this.

But today they learned the taste of the tea, and they will definitely study the tea when they go back.

Fortunately, Du Miaoyan has learned how to fry tea, and will soon be able to introduce new tea to Liaozhou, quickly occupying the market.

When everyone heard it, they could only give up first.

After all, they are very clear about what Fang Yuan called them over today.

But after returning, they will definitely invest manpower and material resources in research.

"Back to business."

"What's going on with the grain store in your hands now?"

Fang Yuan said seriously.

"There is a shortage of food, and it is being transferred from other places."

Pei Yinghua said in a deep voice.

This is their previous unified caliber.

It's not that they don't sell it, nor does it raise prices, it's just that there is a shortage of food, and it is also transferred from other places.

"It's understandable that the three clans in Hedong and the Wang family were transferred from other places."

"But Xie, Lin, Zhao, and Luo, you guys also shipped it from other places?"

Fang Yuan said indifferently.

Among them, the Xie family is the family of the former Sima Xie Wenyu.

The three families of Lin, Zhao, and Luo belonged to the magistrates of the three counties of Liaozhou.

They are the main line in Liaozhou, unlike the three tribes in Hedong who are branches in Liaozhou.

"Lord Inspector, it is already very good that we can still have food to sell to the common people."

"You still doubt us like this, isn't it too cold for us patriarchs?"

Patriarch Xie Xing said in a strange way.

"I do doubt it."

"So are you bringing food from other places?"

Fang Yuan said seriously.

He looked at Xie Xingchao calmly.

"Lord Inspector is aloof, he doesn't touch the bottom, it's understandable that he doesn't know the conditions of farming."

"Affected by the drought now, it is impossible to grow fields at all. Even if the one-third of an acre planted with water is useless."

"But the food we brought from other places is still suspected. It's really chilling. If the governor asks God for food, I really can't accompany you."

Xie Xingchao said in a mocking tone.

He already knew from the county magistrates of the three counties that Fang Yuan wanted each county to carry water for farming.

With such a decision, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Fang Yuan is in a hurry, worried that there will be no food for the people to survive next year.

"What do you mean by chilling your hearts?"

"You sell food to make money, and the money you earn is yours, so can this be chilling?"

Fang Yuan also said with sarcasm.

If they sold food to the people for him, Fang Yuan has nothing to say.

But now they are making money for themselves, not for Fang Yuan.

"Hmph, Lord Inspector doesn't know our difficulties, so it sounds nice."

"I have nothing to say. The food is shipped from all over the country. If it is not shipped, it will be sold according to the current situation. Let me leave."

Xie Xingchao snorted coldly.

He pushed the stool away and left without looking back.

Fang Yuan looked at his back, his eyes flashed coldly, but he didn't attack.

"I'll take my leave too."

The heads of Lin, Zhao, and Luo families stood up one after another and followed Xie Xingchao's pace.

"Inspector Fang, then I will take my leave as well."

The three tribes of Hedong also got up, took their leave and left.

"Inspector Fang, I'm sorry."

Wang Zhicheng got up and saluted.

Because of Wang Yushi's relationship, he didn't want to have a bad relationship with Fang Yuan.

But with the Liaozhou family united front, it is impossible not to leave.

"it is good."

Fang Yuan got up and saw him off.

After they all leave.

"Boss Ji, did I ask you to prepare for the delivery of food?"

Fang Yuan said calmly, with a sullen face.

"Yes, it will be delivered in a few days."

Ji Rufeng immediately got up and said in a deep voice.

"Very well, when your food arrives, it's time for us to make a big deal."

The corners of Fang Yuan's mouth raised, his eyes became deep.

Ji Rufeng didn't understand, but Zhang San who was still taking notes at the side did.
