The autumn harvest season has finally arrived. Everyone who has land at home will have their tools ready. If they have enough staff, they can do it themselves. If they don’t have enough, they can ask for help or hire someone for help. The price of food has risen again and again. There was a bucket of wheat that directly rose to thirty-five liters, and rice also followed to fifty liters.
It makes other people who are harvesting food miserable. Either the Zhang family collects all the food or raises the price later. It’s good now. All the people who have a lot of farming have been found by the Zhang family, but the Zhang family Without money, you have to wait one month after the autumn harvest.
As a result, the price can’t be suppressed even if I put it away. People who have food, even if they haven’t been found by the Zhang family, learn to be smart. The cost of the acquisition was raised by half at once, but there was still no market.
The most annoying thing is that Zhang Zhong took the people to grab the grain and put it in the Changping warehouse in Yizhou, only to help harvest the labor money, not to give the grain, the wages were very small, and each person only paid ten cents a day, even so. , Those idiots who followed to reap felt that they had taken advantage of it, saying that it was an army action.
What is particularly helpless is that the officials of the state government adjacent to Jiannan Road did not say anything. They did not reach out to Yizhou Chang Pingcang at all. They complained about Bi Gou. Didn’t they have been the governor of Yizhou of Jiannan Road and the Jiannan press officer? What? Didn’t it mean that a group of officials were cleaned up? Now he is no longer, so afraid of him
With the increase in food prices, the price of livestock has also risen step by step, especially when the grass that can be fed in the fall is less. In the past, a horse that was worth five coins in normal years could not be bought with eight coins. .
The only thing that hasn’t changed much is the price of salt. Zhang Zhong specifically consulted with officials from various local governments around the area. He didn’t know what he said to the officials. The price of salt has been stable and stable again, and so has the price of oil, only a slight increase. To 10%.
At this time, the entire Jiannan was like a small wooden building in Shanyu's future time, giving the wise men a precarious feeling.
The merchants who collected grain had to find Qi Dongjia who cooperated with them again.
"Qi Dongjia, the grain cannot be harvested, and the price is getting higher and higher, and the people are reluctant to sell it." A grain merchant said, Qi Dongjia.
"The higher the price, the higher the price, thirty-five cents per bucket for wheat, and fifty cents per bucket for rice, you will receive as much as you need." Qi Dongjia offered the same price as Zhang Zhong.
The businessmen shook their heads one after another, and another businessman said: "Qi Dongjia, the same price cannot be paid, and the people are willing to keep it for Zhang Zhong. They all say that Zhang's baby is fighting hard on the front line, and the hero's heart cannot be chilled."
"Then raise the price. Forty essays for wheat and 55 essays for rice. When I write a letter and negotiate with someone, I will charge it at this price first, and more money will be delivered soon."
Qi Dong’s heart is full of joy and worry. What is happy is that the grain will not be lowered, and what is worry is that the collateral that is used fraudulently is about to be time. Originally, he thought that the money was enough to collect more grain and livestock, and he took the sword. Prices in Nandao have increased, and now the prices are high, but the things that need to be collected have not reached a sufficient quantity.
The plan made above always makes people feel a bit wrong. What went wrong
The puzzled Qi Dongjia couldn't think of it, so he wrote a letter and sent it away secretly.
Zhang Zhong can also feel the current form of Jiannan Dao, but he is not in a hurry. All the arrangements have been arranged, just waiting for the final blow. In the process, some of the people’s interests will be lost, but it’s nothing, no need. Compensation will be given at the end.
As for the merchants who have received greater losses, don't care. The merchants are so smart, don't you understand how much damage your actions will cause to the place? Since he can push the flames with ignorance of his conscience, he must be prepared to bear the consequences. The merchants in the border land are afraid if they don't clean up, and they may be in danger in the future.
Waiting for the development of things, Zhang Zhong began to work hard to improve the ski resort matters. The three old men also followed Zhang Zhong to help, faintly looking forward to what the Zhang family had not told them what the means were.
It’s not just Zhang Zhong and others who are busy. The little guys like Xiaobei are also very busy. The house has changed. The original three-story house is shorter. The little boy grows up quickly. Put away the house made of agarwood and put it in. In the large warehouse, they made a three-story house with ginkgo wood.
The height of each floor is five feet this time, and a little bit higher is the same as the normal door height. It hasn’t been a long time since it was finished, the glass was installed, a new batch of toys were replaced, and there were protective measures such as the carpet inside. There is no bedding.
Under the leadership of his elder brother Xiaoman, the nine people of Xiaobei found straw to fill in, and let his subordinates dig tunnels under the house. The underside of the house could have been opened. The current can and the previous can also be the key. Used to escape at all times.
Most of the straw filled in the house was sent to the pit "secretly" by Xiaobei and others. One of Qianghu's son and one daughter were also busy. Unfortunately, the two of them talked late, and now they can only say a simple one. Or two words, the expression is still unclear.
Even so, Qianghu was very happy. He spoke earlier than his first two older children. The oldest one can only speak at two and a half years old. Of course, it is incomparable compared to the children of Zhang Wang's family. When he wants to come, this is how good parents are, and so are children.
Only people who understand the real situation understand that this is the gap opened by the difference between nutrition and infant education. Xiaobei and the others are already able to express their ideas with others well, understand simple stories, and can tell others. Interrupted in the story and asked.
The maid who took care of them knew that they had stuffed all the straw into the tunnel below, and at night, even if they didn't pay attention, they laid it out well, still pretending not to see it.
It took two days for the nine people of Xiaobei to finally pave all the tunnels with straw. This day, they happily pulled the maid to stand outside the house, and they went into the house, drew the curtains from the inside, and trot. When I came to the bottom, I went out, circled outside, stood behind the maidservant, touched the maid, and waited for the maid's response with wide eyes.
The maid was still looking at the house attentively. After being pulled by her clothes, she turned her head and said, "Oh! Why did you run outside, Beckham?"
"Chuck chuck..." Xiaobei and the others laughed proudly, shaking their heads just not to say, the two children of Qianghu wanted to say, but couldn't say it, they were anxious.
"Xiaobei, tell me what's going on? It's amazing." The maid continued to ask curiously.
"Earth, tunnel warfare, lying in ambush, millions of soldiers, and elder brothers and sisters, dare you dare to beat bad guys?" Beckham waved his small fist and said.
"Don't dare, don't dare anymore, Beckham is really amazing." The maid looked scared.
"Chuck..." Beckham laughed happily again, smiling, and suddenly her mouth slumped, and said: "I'm not coming back yet."
The maid also turned dark, and comforted: "It's almost, it's almost time, then the little son and the little lady will come back and bring delicious food to Beckham."
"No, beat the bad guys and come back alive." Xiaobei seems to know that there is danger there, so there is only one request.
…
Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao did not know that the younger siblings at home had been thinking about them. They had entered the desert and spent a day in the desert.
The two Tubo sergeants who followed did not come in. They opened a certain range to ensure the depth of the line of defense. While waiting for the supply from behind, they wanted to see when Wang Juan would come out.
Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao are not in a hurry. The desert here is not as difficult as elsewhere. There are grasslands, lakes, and many oases. If they two can die of thirst and starve in this desert, they will be hell.
"Xiaobao, I have been here when I was traveling before, and there are still pearls for sale. This is a lake pearl. Find some more. Go back and play with Xiaobei and the others. It can also be used as cosmetics. Ah, this is Cistanche, and it is also called Cistanche. , Hurry, I picked it, a lot, take it back to make food, hurry up and help, don’t look, they don’t have the guts to chase after."
Wang Juan, who regarded entering the desert as a tourist, found a good thing, Cistanche, the real wild Cistanche. He picked it and greeted Zhang Xiaobao, who was still watching when he was on the road.
"I didn't look at them, I thought, the desert here is pretty good, if one day how good the railway can be built and the resources here are used, when will Tubo be completely annexed?"
Zhang Xiaobao looked at the yellow sand, feeling very comfortable, and came over to pick Cistanche and said.
Wang Juan glanced at the resting soldiers. "You can fight if you want. Economic warfare, unconventional warfare. Give me another 100,000 Tang army. In two years, I can swallow the entire Tubo. Is it good for your economic warfare? It took a small advantage and cheated our own businessmen and Tubo people. Suddenly, the loss of people was not too great.
I have to help you. Whether it is political or economic means, it ultimately requires force to maintain. The Jews are so powerful and the means of making money are great, but they can also spend money to hunt down the specific people who killed them, but they can’t be destroyed. In the country, even force is not enough.
Petroleum countries want to fight economic wars with other developed countries, but they can only be sent troops to change regimes. I will help you improve your plan and let Tubo lose more. "
"Fortunately, my plan this time can only swallow the money that Tubo sent for operation. If you can bring soldiers to help, I can hurt Tubo's muscles and bones. War will always be the most direct way to resolve conflicts."
Zhang Xiaobao didn't refuse, because he couldn't lead the war.
Wang Juan picked all the Cistanche in front of her and spread it out on the sand. She herself lay on the sand. She squinted her eyes and touched her face and said, "My skin is not good after the day's battle, so I have to go back for maintenance soon. Maintenance, what else is there? Can't come here in vain."
"There are also all kinds of medicinal materials. You will not be a temporary truce, let the soldiers help you gather the medicine?" Zhang Xiaobao turned over the sand beside him and found that there were no insects or shells, and gave up looking for soil snails. Plans to cook the soup.
"I'm going to spare a few days to train the team again, running and fighting. There has been no time. The next battle will really look at the ability. We will get up and move forward."
Wang Juan said something to Zhang Xiaobao, and then greeted the soldiers to continue marching, how can they go to a place where there is a lake first.
