A few people were eating and drinking while laughing and chatting. They knew that they had something to ask about today, but they didn't dare to drink too much.
But after a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere of chatting gradually became more intense.
Li Shimin and others intentionally or unintentionally pulled Tang Sufan to talk about current affairs, but Tang Sufan just responded casually and didn't bother to talk in depth.
Then his eyes glanced at Li Lirou who was aside~
I really can't be bothered with this group of people, a bunch of light bulbs...
This only made Li Shimin drink wine angrily. He brought this person, what else could he say.
Fang Xuanling and Kong Yingda are two old men who have been foxes for seventy years and monsters for hundreds of years. If I were slow to act, I might not know whose house this son-in-law would go to~
Who calls this piece of shit popular?
If this bitch goes out to show off his coquettishness, there’s no telling how many rich and powerful people will want to take this bitch as their son-in-law~
Let's strike first to gain the upper hand...
The weather is cold, but there is a unique warmth in this courtyard...
Although the hot pot is spicy, Li Lirou feels sweet in her heart...
From time to time, I would blush and catch a glimpse of Tang Sufan's handsome profile, chatting and laughing.
From time to time, when their eyes met, Tang Sufan blinked, and Li Lirou was even more embarrassed...
With his head lowered and the chopsticks biting between his teeth, Tang Sufan looked at her beautiful red face and said in his heart that this girl has perfected the four words of ancient beauty!
Li Lirou originally thought that a palace wall would separate them from each other, and their status, fame and fortune would be their biggest obstacles.
When she heard the news that her father was planning to bring her here, she felt as if she was in a dream, and even now he is still a little confused.
But what really happened now made him know that it was Brother Fan who changed his father's view on his own.
In the past, she thought that talent was the limit of a young man, but what she heard from her father in the carriage today became more and more incredible to her.
turn out to be……
I know so little about him...
Fang Xuanling and Fang Xuanling on the side rolled their eyes, naturally knowing that His Majesty might not be able to wait any longer.
Then Fang Xuanling pretended to be sad and prepared to speak.
"Hey, Su Fan, what kind of day are you talking about now? Yesterday, I went to buy some chestnuts to prepare for the winter, but the price had quadrupled. And I heard that the court was raising grain, which really put us common people in trouble. I’m so restless~”
Hearing the words coming, Li Shimin's lips curled up slightly, and he suddenly had a idea in his mind to get this kid to talk about this.
He also nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes, business is not easy to do these days. Su Fan, do you think I should go outside to collect some grain and sell it back? I heard that the business of selling grain is very profitable these days~ "
Sure enough, Tang Sufan's eyes returned and his face became condensed.
"Lao Li, if you want to make money, I can give you a way to make money. As a friend, I don't want you to do this life business!"
Seeing Tang Sufan's serious expression, Li Shimin knew that this kid was finally serious.
But why does that sound weird? As a friend? I regard you as my future son-in-law, and you regard me as your friend?
damn thing!
But let’s not worry about it for now, and then continue: “Hey, don’t you think that the price of food is rising fast~”
…
Tang Sufan shook his head and said: "But every time someone buys and resells when they see money, the price of food will be higher, and more people who want to eat but can't eat will die. You must know that in this winter, food It’s life! So Lao Li, can you feel comfortable earning money from this life?”
Li Shimin laughed and continued: "Okay, okay, isn't this a joke? But the world is so big, and the price of food is like this now, how many animals can the court take care of in disaster relief?"
"The rise in food prices is an inevitable market rule. The world is huge today, and disaster relief can only save a few people. This year, the court knows how to raise food in advance. It is already good..."
Food is the biggest resource these days, and not many people can bear the temptation to make profits from it, even if it means fewer people survive...
Anyway, those who died were poor people. Compared with the wealth and greed of a few people, human life often seemed so insignificant.
"Su Fan, tell me... is there a better way to stabilize the price of food, and there are fewer unscrupulous businessmen who buy and resell? The people in this world are suffering. This is simply making some dirty money!"
Du Ruhui pondered for a while and said indignantly.
Tang Sufan put down his chopsticks, frowned and thought for a while before speaking slowly.
"There are still some methods, it just depends on how to control them. If this method works well, it can also help to relieve the disaster..."
As soon as Tang Sufan said these words, the eyes of Li Shimin and others suddenly lit up. Look at this, there is something interesting~
Sure enough, this kid's brain is very good!
"Hey, you kid, do you still understand this? This is not a simple matter. Tell me, kid. I'll treat it as if it has gained some experience~"
Fang Xuanling, an old friend, naturally wanted to give noodles. Not only did he give noodles, but he also personally filled a cup of sweet-scented osmanthus brew for Tang Sufan...
When the Duke poured wine, few people in the Tang Dynasty except Li Shimin could enjoy it.
Seeing that Lao Fang was very knowledgeable, Tang Sufan raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
Picking up the sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed wine, he pretended to take a sip and held it up as high as possible.
Master, meet
^0^ Before deciding, take the cup first, isn’t that how your temperament comes about~
Li Shimin and others twitched their mouths when they saw this. This guy was really pretending to be devoted.
Putting down his wine glass, Tang Sufan began to speak softly: "You should know what the imperial court needs most for its biggest disaster relief, right?"
Li Shimin followed: "It's nothing more than money and food!"
"That's right, so the first step is to find a way to collect money and collect food!"
Li Shimin's face turned dark. He didn't know that money and food were the first priority in disaster relief. He really listened to your words as if he had just listened to them!
Thanks to you, you still put on airs and tempered your temperament, but you’re telling me this?
Changsun Wuji sighed: "But there is no money in the treasury and no food in Chang'an. How can we collect money to store food?"
Tang Sufan, the old god, said: "There is no money in the national treasury, but there is money in the world. There is no food in Chang'an, and there is food in the world. This is just a principle of allocation and sowing..."
Li Shimin pondered, and with his brain, he naturally understood some of the meaning in a short while: "What do you mean...take it and divide it?"
"Yes, that's the truth~"
"How can I adjust the broadcast?"
Tang Sufan straightened the corners of his mouth and muttered softly: "Raise the price of food!"
…
"Raise food prices?"
As expected, Li Shimin and others shouted in question at the same time.
"That's right, raise the price and directly ask the court to set the price of grain at fifteen yuan per bucket of rice. The higher the better..."
Li Shimin frowned in confusion, is this kid crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?
You want to raise the price of food a few more times. Even the aristocratic families of the Five Surnames and Qiwang, who are secretly plotting, only dare to raise the price twice. How dare you say that!
What benefit will the fall of the Tang Dynasty bring to you?
What if we agreed not to enrich the country?
But Li Shimin and others have gradually become accustomed to this kid's different words, and they will never make any mistakes.
No one refuted for the time being, and Fang Xuanling asked.
"What does this mean?"
"Lao Fang, if there are countless victims in Chang'an right now, what would you do if you were a grain merchant?"
Fang Xuanling said directly without thinking: "Raise the price and wait for the price to sell."
"Then the court will raise the price on its own? Or will it raise the price to a price that they are overjoyed with?"
"That will naturally push the people to death!"
Tang Sufan smiled: "Of course, if the court only raises prices but does not provide disaster relief, then of course the people will have no way to survive."
"However, the imperial court's current grain collection is quite effective. We have some grain ourselves, so disaster relief can be started first. Raise the price when it's time to raise the price, and provide disaster relief when it's time."
"The imperial court is raising prices, not buying grain. If the price of grain in Chang'an City quadruples, it will at most attract nearby grain merchants, but grain merchants further away will not be interested. After all, the profit is not enough for the loss of carriages and horses."
Then Tang Sufan said slowly and mysteriously: "But what about the third edition? What about the fourth edition?"
Li Shimin and others were startled, and then they all looked at Tang Sufan involuntarily...
