"What news~?"

Li Zexuan originally thought that this matter was over, but he didn't expect that this servant tooth suddenly seemed to have something to do. Today, this is really twists and turns!

Pu Yatu glanced cautiously in the direction of the door, and Li Zexuan waved his hand and said, "If the messenger has something to say, no one will eavesdrop!"

With his current skill, if someone is eavesdropping nearby, it is absolutely impossible to hide his perception. But Pu Yatu's behavior just shows that what I'm about to say next is absolutely extraordinary.

Pu Yatu opened his mouth and said, "I wonder if Marquis has any strangeness in his heart. Why did we envoys suddenly come to the academy to watch the military training parade today?"

Li Zexuan narrowed his eyes, folded his arms around his chest, leaned back on the back of the chair, and said, "If the messenger has something to say, please speak directly!"

The expressions of the other two messengers changed drastically at this moment, and the servants gritted their teeth and said, "The first person who proposed to come to the academy was the Prime Minister of the Jie Ri Dynasty, Alo Nashun, although I don't understand the reason. , but the first two days, Cui Siqing often had a private interview with Ah Luo Dashun, so..."

Having said that, Pu Ya suddenly kept his mouth shut, because anyone should be able to guess the following words.

Li Zexuan's face was sullen, a cold light flashed in his eyes, Cui Family, this is really like a maggot with a bone! Previously, they sent people to assassinate him, but they failed. Instead, the people they sent were all taken over by themselves. I didn't expect that these people would not stop, and now they are secretly making small moves.

"Well, Ben Hou knows! I have never heard these words before, and the two of you are not allowed to spread it out~!"

Li Zexuan turned to look at the two messengers from Pyu Kingdom and Funan Kingdom, and said solemnly.

He wanted to settle the account of the Cui family by himself, and he didn't want to make trouble.

"Yes, I'll wait to understand, it will never spread out~!"

The two quickly agreed.

……………………

"Master, why haven't we sold the rent that our family received this year?"

At noon that day, Li Zexuan had just returned from the academy, but Xiao He, who was in the academy, ran over and asked like this.

Li Zexuan became curious and asked, "What? Xiao He has also begun to care about the important affairs of the mansion~?"

The rent collected by the Li family this year was not intended to be sold, not only will it not be sold, Li Zexuan also bought a lot of grain from other villages before, all of which are to deal with the big locust plague next year, as the so-called family has surplus grain , Don't panic. Although he knows that there will be a locust plague next year, he has never seen a locust plague since he was a child. God knows what the specific situation will be like, and it is always good to be more prepared.

Of course, very few people know about the locust plague, Xiao He definitely doesn't know, otherwise this girl wouldn't ask that.

Xiao He, who is not afraid of the sky and the earth, was taken aback by Li Zexuan's inadvertent words. She quickly waved her hand and said:

"No no no, young master, I... I didn't mean that! I just heard that the price of food in Chang'an City has dropped sharply recently when I was helping the young lady to buy things in the West Market today, and there is still a downward trend. Remembering that our food hasn't been sold yet~!"

God is pitiful, she is just a maid, who has the right to care about the important affairs of the house, if this is to change to a less-minded mistress, after hearing this, she will be expelled from the house!

"The price of food has dropped dramatically~?"

But Li Zexuan didn't have so many chaotic thoughts of Xiao He. He frowned slightly and asked aloud, "What is the current grain price in Chang'an City? Why did the grain price suddenly drop?"

Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "Young master, you can buy a bucket of rice for two pennies these days. The reason why it's so cheap is said to be because when the imperial fleet returned a while ago, private merchant ships also brought back a lot of food. , those businessmen were eager to sell, and they lowered the price of grain, wanting to sell it as soon as possible! Now the major grain shops in Chang'an City, the granaries are basically full!"

Earlier, Li Er decided to let the imperial court organize a fleet to lead private merchant ships to trade in the South China Sea.

The more than 500 official ships of the imperial court were all filled with grain when they came back. Li Er had no rigid rules for private merchant ships, but each family must have at least two special ships for carrying grain. In this way, as soon as the fleet docked, those folk merchants were eager to sell the food on the ship. This thing is worthless, and it will only rot in their hands.

Two cents a buck of rice?

Nima, a bucket of rice is more than 12 catties. Li Zexuan suddenly felt a sense of waste. Those grain merchants are really wasteful. How can they sell the grain so cheaply?

"Well, it's alright, I get it! Xiaohe, you don't have to continue to struggle. Master, I don't sell those grains. Naturally, I have my reasons. You can go and do your own thing!"

In his heart, Li Zexuan lamented the cheapness of Datang's grain prices, but he was quickly analyzing what impact the sharp drop in grain prices would have on Datang.

In modern times, foreign food has always been cheaper than domestic food, and a large amount of food flows into China from abroad every year, which will inevitably cause domestic food price fluctuations.

As the saying goes, cheap grain hurts farmers, and many people who grow grain just hope that the grain they grow can be sold at a good price while having a good harvest.

In order to protect farmers' enthusiasm for growing grain, the only thing the state can do is to buy the farmers' grain, and most of these grains purchased by the state have not flowed into the market. In fact, in the end, the state put it away

coming. Although this method will bury many hidden dangers and cannot solve the problem in essence, it is also a good way to stabilize food prices.

But is it really necessary to stabilize food prices in the era he lives in now?

At this time, the food in the Tang Dynasty was mainly concentrated in the hands of the landlords. After the people paid the rent, most of the remaining food in their hands was only enough for their own family's survival needs, and few of them took out the food for sale. , If I persuade Li Er to stabilize the price of food, the cheap ones are still those landlords!

Ahem, although he is now a landlord himself...

In view of these, instead of stabilizing grain prices, he might as well take this opportunity to buy more grain and save it for next year's locust plague resistance!

When he thought of it, he did it. After Li Zexuan sent Xiao He away, he went straight back to Chang'an to find Wang Zhong, the housekeeper.

"Uncle Wang, you can help me contact a few other members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce in the past two days, and tell them that I want to buy a large amount of grain and ask them to help~! At the same time, I will also have people build a large granary at the foot of Yunshan recently~ !"

Li Zexuan found Wang Zhong in the front yard of the Li Mansion, and explained to him straight to the point.
