Human potential is infinite.
Once again, the water levels in the rivers, lakes and seas soared and it rained continuously, making it difficult for ships to move with the help of sails.
Xu Yunyan took the lead again, and another unexpected scene appeared on the river.
All the passing ships stopped and got out of the way, allowing the navy adapted from the Chongfu soldiers to drag their warships upstream.
At the same time, they also let this group of people point fingers at them.
"When did our Tang Dynasty have such an impressive battleship?"
Some people were surprised by the hugeness of the battleship, but more people were shocked that this Zichong Mansion soldier actually lowered his status.
No trackers, no husbandmen, no corvee from the court, just dragging the warship upstream.
I couldn't help but be shocked when I saw that there was no human power on this ship.
"How can such a huge creature move through the rivers, lakes and seas?"
Thanks to the bad weather, the sails were not raised, so they had no idea how the warship was moving.
Fortunately, many of the soldiers in Zhe Chong Mansion were thick-skinned under the training of Xu Yunyan, and the code of conduct of civilized teachers was strictly controlled, so there were no unexpected troubles.
Before the storm stopped again and the wind picked up, all the soldiers boarded the ship to make repairs.
This time, the world knew how the ship moved.
Once the wind blows and the sails are hoisted, going upstream is not a problem, and watching the pointed bottom cape spread the waves is so majestic.
Likewise, human potential is unlimited. In this storm, Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, rushed down the waterway regardless of the risk and went to find his master as soon as possible.
Let's go and see where Xu Yunyan has been and whether there will be anything wrong with the food and grass.
What's the best way to deal with the bad weather now?
Although the journey is dangerous, the human heart is even more dangerous.
Fortunately, the sky was beautiful and after driving for a while without any danger, Li Chengqian finally arrived at the section of the river where Xu Yunyan's fleet was located.
In the beautiful wind and sunshine, Li Chengqian burst into tears as he watched the warships swaying in the wind and galloping across the river at top speed, surpassing the ships one after another driven by humans or pulled by trackers and going upstream.
Xu Yunyan and others were also very curious about the serious Tang warship that suddenly appeared in front of them.
How come there are Tang warships here, and they are still driven by the Forbidden Army?
Although Xu Yunyan was not sure about this, he was shocked when he saw Li Chengqian clearly on the approaching battleship.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince?"
I have seen Li Chengqian's Zhechong Mansion soldiers, and even more navy officers and soldiers.
All the navy officers and soldiers were shocked after seeing Li Chengqian who came to him through thick and thin.
"What's going on? Has the Crown Prince come to greet us?"
Xu Yunyan was also very surprised, but he immediately moved out of the way of the fleet and let Li Chengqian approach first.
In any case, His Highness the Crown Prince left Beijing in a hurry, whether it was to find him or to go south, there was always something urgent, right?
After Xu Yunyan's ship docked, Li Chengqian's warship moved next to Xu Yunyan, where he watched anxiously as Li Chengqian was about to board his warship. Xu Yunyan quickly ran to the side of the ship to help.
When Li Chengqian came to Xu Yunyan's battleship, Xu Yunyan looked at Li Chengqian and was puzzled.
"Why is Your Highness the Crown Prince so flustered? Are you ignoring the Crown Prince's identity? Look at the dirt on his body."
Li Chengqian rushed to Xu Yunyan's side in such a hurry that he really didn't care about anything. The prince's outfit was a bit messy.
But Li Chengqian didn't say this, but looked at Xu Yunyan.
"Master, something big happened." "Something big happened again?"
Xu Yunyan is very different now, and at the same time he is also very afraid that something big will happen now, but there should be no sudden changes and the Turks invade again.
Seeing Xu Yunyan waiting for him to explain, Li Chengqian seemed to know that he had done something wrong just now, and spoke quickly.
"Master, that's what happened."
After Li Chengqian told Xu Yunyan all these things, Xu Yunyan breathed a sigh of relief.
"I see. Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't need to worry too much. This situation is easy to deal with."
After Xu Yunyan said these words, Li Chengqian was stunned.
"Master, what do you mean? I remember it's still a month away from Chang'an, right?
If we don’t increase the speed, we don’t know how many people will die in a month because they can’t afford to eat. "
Seeing Li Chengqian anxious here, Xu Yunyan nodded with satisfaction.
"It is our blessing that His Highness the Crown Prince cares so much about the people, so we can only do this. His Highness the Crown Prince will try his best to seize the time to return to Chang'an City and use the grain and grass in the farm. There is no need to join in with them, as long as the price is restored to the original price. That's it, and we have to find a way to deliver the food and grass within half a month no matter what.
No matter what your Highness the Prince can do, you must keep this food for 20 days, leaving me five days for unexpected situations. "
After Li Chengqian heard Xu Yunyan's arrangement, he finally had a backbone.
"Okay Master, I will strive for 20 days no matter what."
Seeing what Li Chengqian said, Xu Yunyan hugged him with a fist.
"Please also ask His Highness the Crown Prince to tell them that there is a problem with the canal when they return. The fleet is stranded here and will not be able to reach Chang'an City within a month or two, so that they can relax."
Xu Yunyan asked Li Chengqian again.
"ah?"
At this moment, Li Chengqian couldn't figure out Dao Wuming.
"Tell them to relax."
"What?"
Li Chengqian still didn't understand.
"Let them relax their guard."
Seeing that Li Chengqian didn't quite understand, Xu Yunyan whispered in his ear and said that Li Chengqian was frightened.
"Is it so appropriate?"
Xu Yunyan smiled, "What's appropriate or inappropriate? Since these young people are going to do such a thing, then we will make them pay the price they deserve."
Li Chengqian left and returned to Chang'an City, looking for Xu Yunyan in a hurry. He said that there was still some grain in the farm, which could still suppress the current extremely high grain prices.
It's just that the surrounding areas use water transportation to transport grain and grass to Chang'an, and those transported on the road are always delayed by the interference of the wealthy family due to various miscellaneous reasons.
After Li Chengqian returned to Chang'an City and told Li Shimin about Li Ying's plan, Li Shimin's eyes lit up and he said to Li Chengqian.
"Now go ahead and do something. All the food that can be mobilized now is in your hands."
Li Shimin's easy words made Li Chengqian realize the weight of the burden on his shoulders.
"Don't worry, Father, I will definitely do this beautifully."
After Li Chengqian said this, Li Shimin looked at him and nodded with satisfaction.
"The prince has taken responsibility."
On a new day, the price of food in Chang'an City was still rising rapidly. Those who used money to buy food sighed when they saw that the price had reached a price that they could not afford.
"How can I use such expensive grain and grass?"
Some of these farmers are locals in Chang'an, and some have fled from other places. They could have found a way to survive, but now that food prices have suddenly soared, they have no way to survive. As for Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, because not many victims came, it was not yet time to give out porridge and relief. Those who had left their hometowns or were natives of Chang'an could only stop in front of the food store.
Just as this group of people were looking at the food at the door and debating whether to buy it or not, some people started running around on the street to tell each other.
"Quickly go to the east of the city. There is someone selling food in the east of the city. The price of food is exactly the same as the original price."
Some people shouted loudly here. After the food prices in some places were exactly the same as before, these people seemed to have made a decision and rushed towards the east of the city.
As long as there are food sellers in the east of the city, no matter what the food is, as long as they can eat it and fill their stomachs, they will not choose the food with the scary high price.
In this grain store, the shopkeepers and clerks who were waiting to make a huge profit after the price of grain soared were a little surprised when they saw the people who were standing outside preparing to buy grain and grass leave like this.
After stopping and listening carefully, it turned out that someone was running around outside telling people that someone was selling grain, and the price was exactly the same as before.
"Who is so ignorant? At this time, the price of food does not rise quickly enough to make a fortune and sell it at the reduced price?"
While these people are complaining here that some people are unreliable and cannot make a lot of money, more and more people who cannot afford the sky-high price of food have come to the east of the city to buy food and grass.
And this food is exactly the same as the original food, or even worse.
"The price of such food is the same as the original price. Even at the beginning, we could not eat such full food."
Some farmers cried with joy while holding the unprecedentedly full grain in their hands, while more people marveled at who was so kind-hearted and merciful to help them?
Watching the Shaoxing opera, more and more people were sighing at the goodness of the food. When the good man was doing such a good job, a figure in brocade clothes appeared near the food seller, shouting loudly.
"Everyone be quiet, everyone be quiet."
Hearing someone shouting here, everyone temporarily looked at this figure.
This richly dressed young man was here shouting at the top of his lungs after watching everyone calm down.
"Everyone, I am Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty."
This sentence frightened everyone in front of them.
His Royal Highness?
Just when this group of people saw His Highness the Crown Prince and saluted him here, Li Chengqian continued to talk.
"This food was brought out by Gu, but unfortunately Gu has limited financial resources and even the food he prepared was not enough.
However, Gu here guarantees that as long as there is still a grain of grain in Gu's hands, the price of food will never change. You can just come and buy with confidence.
And I absolutely guarantee you the quality of this food. What you buy today will still be the same tomorrow. "
When Li Chengqian said this, everyone cheered and congratulated happily for having such a prince in the Tang Dynasty.
And Li Chengxian watched them complimenting the food and himself, and while cheering, he started talking again.
"Everyone, this food is not mine alone."
Following Li Chengqian's words, the thoughtful person began to think. Looking at the food that was rarely seen on the market and was definitely the top quality, he couldn't help but think that this was the food of the royal family. It was the best product from all over the world. Here he is. I started to feel grateful towards Li Tang.
This scene was also what Li Chengqian wanted to see. When the people did this and the information was sent to Li Shimin through intelligence personnel everywhere, Li Shimin was very happy.
"What Qian'er did this time is really beautiful. I, the emperor and ministers of the Tang Dynasty, are united in their efforts. Is there anything I can't accomplish?"
Do these young people want to take this opportunity to cause national disaster? Don't even think about it!
This time I must let you lose money and make a profit. "
