Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 799
After Xie Sanbin yelled in the room, everyone reacted, and immediately pushed the door out in a hurry, and had to go back quickly to get the food out.

Xie Sanbin suddenly woke up when he saw everyone leaving the house with a whoosh.

At this time, fellow Taoists should be damned, but he was so angry that he reminded everyone to throw away food.

For a while, Xie Sanbin was so angry that he couldn't beat himself to death. He stomped his feet and rushed out of the wing room, wanting to go back to throw the grain first.If he moved quickly and threw it before these people, he might still be able to escape.

"You wait for me!"

After leaving the door, Xie Sanbin looked at the background of the crowd and shouted while chasing them, but Song Zhipu and the others were not stupid, they all walked like flying, they all wanted to throw it first, and no one wanted to lag behind.

A group of people chased after each other and left the Xishan Temple. Just as they reached the door, a team of Jinyi guards climbed up the stone steps, panting.The two parties happened to meet in front of the temple gate, Xie Sanbin and others didn't dare to make a sound, as if they thought that if they didn't make a sound or breathe, Jin Yiwei couldn't see them.

Xie Sanbin is a member of the third rank, and Yu Taichu personally led the Jinyiwei team. He climbed up the mountain, looked at Xie Sanbin and his party, and grinned, "Master Xie chose a good place, but the brothers are exhausted. Why, are you leaving now?" I'm afraid not."

The gentry saw Jin Yiwei's legs already weak, Song Zhipu had already leaned on the wall and fell to the ground, Xie Sanbin's face was also pale, but he was the leader after all, so he had to be more steady, "I am the inspector of Zhejiang, you want to arrest me, Do you have documents from the imperial court?"

Yu Taichu kept an evil smile on his face, "Don't take it, don't take it, it is true that there is no arrest document at the moment, Master Xie has some misunderstandings."

When Xie Sanbin heard that he would not take it, and there was no order from the court, he regained his lost courage. After all, Jinyiwei is no longer what it used to be, especially now that the emperor is young, and many functions of Jinyiwei are basically exhausted.

"Then please get out of the way, I'm going back to Zhejiang to handle official business." Xie Sanbin straightened his robes to make himself more dignified and dignified.

Xie Sanbin wanted to go there, but Yu Taichu put his hands on his chest and blocked the road with a group of Jin Yiwei.

"What do you mean?"

Yu Taichu said with a smile: "Master Xie, don't worry, His Royal Highness King Chu has already dispatched sailors to the two grain storage islands of Dayang Mountain and Xiaoyang Mountain. After confirming that the grain is on the island, and getting the evidence of Mr. Xie's hoarding, the Ministry of Criminal Justice issued a I will immediately invite you to go to the prison for a while.”

Hearing Dayangshan and Xiaoyangshan, Song Zhipu and the others were already trembling, Xie Sanbin felt as if someone had hit him with a club, he was dizzy, his throat was sweet, and he spit out a mouthful of blood.

In Nanjing, besides the official warehouses, there are more than 100 grain stores that are monitored by the government. At this time, they also began to sell at a reduced price.

Although the call was joyful, there were very few people who responded. The cheap grain in the official warehouse only costs one tael or five dollars, so why buy three taels of grain.It turned out that there was no grain in the city, and it cost seven or eight taels. Ordinary residents couldn't afford it, so it didn't matter, but big households couldn't go hungry, so they still had a market for their grain.

Now that the grain ship has arrived, there is no shortage of grain, the official warehouses are open to supply, there is no quota, and the big households are not stupid, so why do they still eat such expensive grain.

Seeing this situation, everyone knows that the grain price is about to go up. This grain number is still selling for three taels, while the grain number over there has dropped to two taels. Compared with the purchase price of four taels, this is already a bloody sale. However, no one cared about it until the price of grain fell to one or two or five renminbi of cheap grain, and the people who bought grain in the official warehouse were coaxed and flocked to the grain shop.

On the second floor of a restaurant opposite to several food shops, the window of a room facing the street was propped open with wooden sticks, and several old men in casual clothes stood by the window, looking at the crowded crowd below.

They were all Jiangxi gentry who were invited by Wanji to come to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to hunt down the bottom line.

Wanji stood by the window, looked down, and admired Su Guansheng next to him, "As expected by Mr. Su Ge, the people in Zhejiang will lose their blood."

Su Guansheng sneered, "People don't fight with officials. They don't understand such a simple truth. The gentry in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were spoiled during the Chongzhen Dynasty. They think they are still the only ones now."

Wanji glanced down again and asked, "Should we make a move?"

"When it falls below five renminbi, I will go to Chizhou and Taiping directly to change the fields after buying grain." Su Guansheng said with a smile: "The grain in Nanjing is only a small amount. The grain hidden by the people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is only It's the big ones, they don't do anything now, when the summer harvest comes, the south of the Yangtze River will have enough grain, and all the grain in their hands will be rotten in their hands. Just wait, when they bring the hidden grain to sell, the price of grain will definitely drop to the bottom , we were shooting at that time."

"What Su Ge said makes sense. This time we are the oriole, and we got a big deal for no reason! Haha..." All the gentry in Jiangxi echoed with a smile.

But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion on the noisy street, and a group of soldiers and servants came directly to the Lianghao under the leadership of the officer.

"Get out of the way, everyone out of the way!" The leading general shouted loudly, dispersed the crowd, stood at the door of a grain shop, then held up a document, and shouted: "In response to the order of the Tianfu, Chaheng Rengao, Jia Ruiqing, Yi Xinsheng and Dongyuede’s four food companies are hoarding and creating food shortages, and the existing food is sealed up, and a group of people will lock it up immediately and release it later.”

After the general finished reading, the soldiers maintained order, and the government servants of Yingtian Mansion immediately stepped forward to close and seal all the grain names of the four families.

There are more than 100 grain and oil shops on this street, and many of them have actually stockpiled some, but they were coerced into it because of the profit. Now that the price of grain has fallen, it’s okay to vomit blood with them. This is a lesson that I will never forget. These people can only be regarded as coerces, and Wang Yan does not intend to pursue it, because the investigation will involve too much, and it will really offend the entire Jiangnan gentry.

The reason why Jiangnan is Jiangnan and the reason why it is rich in the world is because there are these big families and these gentry. If these big families are gone, then Jiangnan will not be Jiangnan.

If the imperial court wanted to make the country rich, and if it wanted to govern the region, it had to rely on the gentry. Everything had to be measured, and if it was too small, people would not like it.

The closure of the four grain accounts did not affect the continued selling of other grain accounts. They were afraid!If you don't throw it out, what if the defendant hoards it.

In the restaurant, Su Guansheng saw this scene, but his face sank.

"Ge Lao?" Seeing this, Wanji couldn't help but whispered.

Su Guansheng came back to his senses, sighed, a little regretful, "The king of Chu is going to be cruel, it seems that he has got enough evidence, otherwise Ying Tianfu's channel will not seize it, he is going to follow the rules Strictly deal with these Zhejiang gentry hoarding. This time the Jiangsu and Zhejiang gentry lost badly. Although we did not participate, we actually lost."

"Why?" Wanji didn't understand what he meant.

Su Guansheng turned around and took a look at everyone, "This pavilion originally thought that it could be a fisherman's profit, but the King of Chu may have detected where the gentry in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are storing grain, so we may have to return empty-handed this time."

"This is at most a no-lose-no-win situation!" Wanji asked doubtfully.

Su Guansheng smiled sadly, "But the Chu Party has taken all the benefits, and with this disaster relief, the Chu Party has shown its ability to govern, and the position of King Chu's regent has been stabilized, and no one will question it. Now the Chu Party has become stronger again." points, but we have not changed, do you think we lost?"

Wanji sighed in his heart after hearing this.

Su Guansheng went on to say: "What I am worried about now is that the Chu Party will only get stronger and stronger!" After he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at a group of dazed Jiangxi gentry, "You may not be able to buy the bottom, you can go back now." Jiangxi, but now Jiangnan is full of waste. If you are willing to invest at this time, whether it is buying land, workshops or shops, the future harvest will be several times the investment. This time the gentry in Jiangsu and Zhejiang suffered a lot. Some assets will be sold for turnover. Although this cannot be compared with the big profits of the gentry in Huguang and Guangnan, it will also make a lot of money. This is all I have said. Whether you want to go to Jiangnan to drink a bowl of soup, you can decide for yourself !"

Soup?Aren't you here for meat?These Jiangxi gentry, when they received Wanji's invitation, originally planned to roll up their sleeves to make a fortune, but now they turned into picking up other people's noodle soup, and they inevitably felt a little disappointed, and discussions immediately started in the room.
