Chapter 251 ripped off(2/3)

Fang Shiyu hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go back and find a way to do this. You can check the total amount of grain in Jingcang first. After checking it, you can send the data to the Palace of Harmony!"

Fang Shiyu stepped out of Wenhua Palace.

Indeed, killing these grain merchants is the easiest and most rude way, and it is also the only way to solve the current food dilemma in Jiangnan.

But since the merchant exists, there is naturally a reason for his existence. It is indeed a waste of death to raise the price of grain. However, if the court and merchants really want to overturn the table, not only will the decline be added, countless criticism will be added.

Hall of Care for Heart.

Fang Shiyu rubbed her temples and said in disgust: "No, I'd better kill me."

Just as Fang Shiyu was talking, Wei Hongcai took Wang Chuan in.

"The grass people pay homage to His Highness King Tianlei!" Wang Chuan knelt in the hall of Yangxin Hall, kowtowed to Fang Shiyu in the inner hall and said.

Waving his hand, Fang Shiyu said: "Come and speak!

Wang Chuan hurriedly stepped forward two steps and came to Fang Shiyu. He stood there between more than five steps and said, "The grass people entered the palace in panic. I wonder what the hell is calling the grass people?"

Fang Shiyu said: "There is indeed a problem that traps me. Since you are a businessman from a businessman for generations, can you see if there is any solution?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Chuan bowed and said, "Please also ask your highness to make it clear!"

"The flood in the south of the Yangtze River has caused countless fields to be flooded. The people in Jiangxi and Jiangbei have almost no harvest in nearly a year. Although the court's policies will quickly restore the local economy, food will always be a big problem."

"Liaodong and North China are getting colder, and grain production is continuously reduced, so it is difficult to supply the people in the south, major grain merchants in Jiangnan, stockpiling grain, stocking up goods, and raising grain prices. I don't want to kill them directly with a knife."

"Of course, if you really can't do it, using a knife can only be the worst way to use it. The most important thing for the people in Jiangnan to have a full meal. Think about it, what can I do to calm the food prices in Jiangnan without killing people!"

Fang Shiyu looked at Wang Chuan, and he had specialized in his skills. In Fang Shiyu's opinion, there was no way. Wang Chuan, Wang Zhenguang's youngest son, has had a talent for business since he was a child, and it can even be said that he has already fully realized his talent for business.

Maybe he has some good solution to the food problem.

Wang Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness wants to use commercial means to force them to sell grain at a fair price in order to achieve the goal of not killing people to calm the price of Jiangnan?"

"I have never said that I will not kill people. If needed, or there is no better way, killing people is the ultimate way to maintain the stability of grain prices in Jiangnan."

Fang Shiyu will never give up the way to kill people to calm the price of grain. He can try to use commercial means to quickly calm the price of grain while allowing the court to avoid participating as much as possible.

If commercial means cannot be achieved and power is suppressed, killing is the only way to maintain stability.

Wang Chuan said: "Actually, this is simple, I just need your highness's help."

"Let me tell you first!" Fang Shiyu asked.

Wang Chuan said: "Since my father followed His Highness, no food can be taken out in Suzhou Chamber of Commerce if I don't manage any goods such as tea, iron, salt, grain, etc."

"If you want to stabilize the price of grain, you must have food in your hands and force them to sell grain at a fair price." Wang Chuan said respectfully.

"You Suzhou Chamber of Commerce knows quite well. You know what you can touch and what you can't touch. Then how do you make money?" Fang Shiyu was confused.

According to the news from the Jinyiwei, the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce is the richest chamber of commerce group in the entire Ming Dynasty. How many of their total assets are there? It is about 200,000 yuan of treasure money.

It is equivalent to about one-third of the total tax revenue in the year of the prosperity of the Ming Empire. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are rich enough to rival a country.

Wang Chuan bowed and said, "Your Highness will be grateful to Suzhou Chamber of Commerce for his entrustedness. The ban from the court is naturally the ban from the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce. As for making money, a little leaked from your highness's fingers is enough for Suzhou Chamber of Commerce to eat and drink."

Wang Chuan was right. How much did Lan Yu get out of the sea and come back to the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce? The wealth of 30 million yuan of treasure banknotes, and most importantly, many goods are sold through the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce.

The entire Suzhou Chamber of Commerce was truly supported by Fang Shiyu.

"The capital has no food anymore, so you still need to find a way to do it yourself. Can you do it well?" Fang Shiyu looked at Wang Chuan. Since he had a solution, there shouldn't be too difficult.

If we can solve the problem of grain prices in Jiangnan without any bloodshed, it would naturally be the best.

At any time, using a knife is the last resort, the worst of the worst.

"At least there should be a little bit, don't have more grass-roots people. Three million stones of grain will ensure that the grain prices in the entire Jiangxi and Jiangdong will be reduced."

"If there are eight million stones of food, the grass-roots may have caused many profiteers who have made great money in the national crisis to destroy their families and lose everything!"

Wang Chuan said firmly.

"Do you know, the crime of deceiving the king?" Fang Shiyu's eyes narrowed and stared at Wang Chuan and said!!

The fifth year of Taishi, early August

Nanjing.

Wang Chuan took 10 million Shi Jingcang to Nanjing by boat and rushed to Nanjing.

"I finally have the chance to write a business legend." Wang Chuan's mouth rose slightly. He had been patient for a long time. If it weren't for my family's restraint, Wang Chuan would have used his business talent to build a stronger business empire of the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce.

But Wang Zhenguang is too conservative.

In Wang Chuan's eyes, Wang Zhenguang was too conservative.

Nanjing City, Wu Wang Mansion.

Since the ship is docking, we naturally have to pay homage to the pier.

When Wang Chuan saw Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Yunxi was accompanying Wu Ningyu to dismantle the body with a sad face. It was in public and in full view of the public. Zhu Yunxi was dismantle the body in the large courtyard of the King of Wu's Mansion.

"The grass people pay homage to His Highness the King of Wu!" Wang Chuan bowed and said.

"Okay, the ancestor told me that if you want me to help me, just say it. I'm very busy now, finish it quickly!"

Zhu Yunqiu held a towel in his hand and helped Wu Ningyu wipe the sweat from his forehead. He didn't even look at Wang Chuan. It seemed that in his eyes, only Wu Ningyu, who was focused on explaining the great cause.

"The King of Heavenly Thunder wants Cao people to calm the price of grain in Jiangnan, but Cao people need the help of the King of Wu to gather a group of grain merchants in Nanjing to have a meal together."

Wang Chuan bowed and said, Nanjing, the most fierce place where grain prices rose. When Wang Chuan came here, the grain prices had reached 53 stakes of rice.

At this price, many people still cannot buy food. They can only rely on the court's relief grain to make a living.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunxiu glanced at Wang Chuan suspiciously and said, "Let me help you and invite those guys who are full of money and make a fortune in the country?"

"In the entire Nanjing city, the grass people can no longer find anyone else with such great energy to gather them together." Wang Chuan said.

Zhu Yunxi turned his head and snorted coldly, "Do you know where this place is? Nanjing, the former imperial capital, do you know who I am? King Wu! Do you know how sensitive I am in the title of throne in Nanjing? "

"I'm going to see them? You're afraid that the ancestors will not have enough memorials to impeach me, right?"

Zhu Yunxiu seems to be incredible, but in fact, he is suffering. He knows that King Zhao and King Han are also in Nanjing, but his identity sensitivity is far inferior to Zhu Yunxiu.

Zhu Yunxiu was a real legitimate son of Xingzong and was also named King of Wu. He was vassalized by Nanjing. Every move he made would be determined by the censors.

Otherwise, why would Zhu Yunxiu put countless efforts on Wu Ningyu without doing any achievements!

He can't. After he has done his achievements, who will show him? Should I tell Fang Shiyu that I am better than you? Or should I tell the people of the world that the King of Wu is a good prince who loves the people as much as his son?

Zhu Yunxiu, when he was a child, did not think about this. He only thought that when he grew up, he could become free and comfortable when Fang Shiyu became His Highness.

Until the end of the matter, he was indeed a casual and casual king. The most favored vassal king in the entire Ming Dynasty has ever been, but in contrast, Zhu Yunxi was walking on thin ice in Nanjing, and he was more cautious than Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Yun.

Wang Chuan said: "The King of Heavenly Thunder said that if Your Highness can help the people do this, he will draw the place in the vassal state with the King of Wu himself!"

Zhu Yunxiu paused and said, "What did the ancestor really say that?"

"The Caomin is just a white man, how dare you spread the meaning of the Heavenly Thunder King? But Your Highness also said that if the King of Wu does not help, he will be in Nanjing for the rest of his life!"

Wang Chuan said firmly.

Zhu Yunxi looked at Wang Chuan in surprise and said, "You are so brave. How dare you suppress me with the ancestor?"

"If you don't have this courage, how can the grass people be valued by Your Highness and have the full authority to deal with the grain prices on both sides of Jiangdong and Jiangxi!" Wang Chuan looked respectfully in front of Fang Shiyu, but after leaving the palace, he really couldn't see that he was a bit respectful in front of Zhu Yunxi. It seemed that no one was worthy of his superiors and the cabinet chief, including those nobles in Huaixi.

As for why His Highness and the Prime Minister of the Cabinet have the ability to make him respectful.

First of all, the cabinet chief ministers of all the internal affairs of the 15th Ministry of the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty had the power to make decisions and deliberate. As long as His Highness did not deny it, the power of the cabinet chief minister was the greatest in the entire court.

He can formulate a series of policies, which are to suppress or support, all in his hands.

Your Highness has the ability to lift the table, whether it is a table in the officialdom or a business table, as long as it touches your Highness's interests and makes your Highness unacceptable.

For example, the soaring grain prices in various parts of Jiangnan seriously threatened the stable rule of the imperial court in the south. His Highness has no good solution, so it is inevitable to overturn the table.

As for the great men of Huaixi and the big men in the Seventh Army Governor's Office, they can only be regarded as the thugs of His Highness. They cannot mobilize troops or participate in politics, do not have the power to decide policies, nor have the power to overturn the table.

Relatively speaking, under Fang Shiyu's newly established political system, the nobles of Huaixi have completely become thugs who depend on His Highness. In addition to the Jinyiwei, the only one who is still leading the army is Xu Zengshou.

It is estimated that when Xu Zengshou completes the ten-year bandit suppression plan, he will be discharged and returned to the field.

This is why, after the defeat of the Xiping Hou Muchun, the people from the Governor's Office of the Seventh Army were unwilling to help the Mu family speak, and almost no one was willing to go to Luchuan. In the end, Ping'an and He Wenhui stood up.

And now, let alone facing a leisurely prince without real power.

Zhu Yunxiu glanced at him and said, "The Suzhou Chamber of Commerce is so famous?"

"It depends on the support and support of His Highness, and the holy family is always favored." Wang Chuan bowed and said.

Zhu Yunxiu glanced at the body that was dismantled by Wu Ningyu, looked back at Wang Chuan, wiped his hands and said, "It's not impossible to help you, the question is what I can get!"

"What does the prince want?" Wang Chuan smiled. As long as Zhu Yunxiu had something to ask for, this matter would not be difficult to deal with. With the King of Wu coming forward, this grain merchant in Nanjing would dare not sell his face.

As long as they gathered together, Wang Chuan would have full confidence in reducing the price of grain.

With a sneer, Zhu Yunxiu said: "The Ming Dynasty law stipulates that officials should embezzle and accept bribes of more than 60 taels, and peel them down, but this law does not apply to the clan. I am preparing to have a wedding this year. If everything is right, after the three-year filial piety period of Taizu, I will not have to stay in Nanjing. When I go to sea, I will be vassals and will inevitably spend a lot of money!"

"How much money can you give me, how much will I do for you!"

Zhu Yunxi publicly solicited bribes without caring. He and Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Yunxi did not go to sea to get a vassal, but stayed in Nanjing and stayed in Nanjing with Zhu Zhi.

The most important reason is that Zhu Yuanzhang's three-year filial piety period had not passed, so he simply did not take down Japan. Now that this happened, I don't know when Japan will take action.
