Chapter 1851: Overwhelmed

And this situation is getting more and more serious.
Above the court, Emperor Wen Yuan also threw Qin Zhe in his hand aside.
The heavy rains in Jiangning had already submerged more than half of the wheat fields that were about to mature, and the grain harvesting season itself was approaching. In addition to the early harvest, and the later recovery, most of the losses were over.
But other territories have lost a lot, and this may be the worst year since he took the throne.
"Father, the shop in the capital, the people are already looting food."
The prince frowned and said to Emperor Wen Yuan that nearly half of the grain shops were closed. I don't know if there is no grain to sell, or waiting for the price of grain to rise in the future.
There is never a bad business person in this world, and there are many people who make money through natural disasters.
Regardless of whether it is taking the opportunity to make a fortune or there is really no food to sell, cotton is not a good thing for the people.
Obviously, compared to having no grain to sell, he actually hoped. They really collected grain and wanted to sell it at a high price. They just wanted to make more money.
At the very least, there is still food, and at the very least, people have food to buy, even if it is more expensive.
But to be afraid is to be afraid. No amount of money can buy food.
Emperor Wen Yuan stood up and walked on the spot, then he stopped and also walked to the prince.
"Emperor, what can you do?"
The prince bowed to Emperor Wen Yuan.
"The emperor father can order that the grain shops are restricted and sold. In the name of household registration, each household is limited to how much they can buy per month. This will prevent the people from looting and looting the grain and increasing the price of grain. At the same time, Count the grains in the grain depot to prepare for emergencies, and open the bins to release grain."
Emperor Wenyuan patted the prince on the shoulder. The students taught in Sixiu Academy are indeed qualified royals, whether they are the three of the Shuo Palace or his prince, they are all grown up. It's gratifying, of course, he can rest assured that he has given the country to them.
"That's it."
Emperor Wen Yuan retracted his hand, and then sat down at the table. He picked up the pen on one side and began to write the imperial edict.
All major grain shops in Beijing are not allowed to raise grain prices privately, and they must also restrict households to buy grain based on their household registration.
In other words, even if you have money in the future, you will not be able to buy more food, and once this ban is issued, it will be the same everywhere in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
It is also to prevent some people from accumulating grain and then selling it at a high price. However, when the above ban is issued, it is undoubtedly more panic.
Even if the grain shop has no grain to sell, there will be no rice to eat.
And if there is no food, it is equal to waiting to die, especially those who have no grain harvest this year, use last year’s old grain to make ends meet, but in the past few years, everyone’s life is not bad, too. The weather has been good for several years, the grain harvest has been bumper, and there are also things that are easy to grow. So those who have the old grain will sell some when the new grain comes out. Not only do they exchange some silver taels, but also Make room for new grain.
But because of this, there will be no food in the pot, and there is no one who sells the old food, and I am grateful that there is at least one old food, but this is fine, you borrow some today, and I will borrow some tomorrow. No matter how much old food there is, it won't last long if you want to, and you will be hungry.
In this regard, another month has passed. Even in the capital, it is extremely difficult to buy grain at this time, and many grain shops now sell old noodles and aged rice.
"How good is the food in Xiangjue Temple?"
Shen Qingci hugged Xiao Laobai and asked his two sons. They came from Xiangjue Temple. These crystals are also traveling between the palace and the mansion. The young ones are also pressed on their shoulders. A lot of burdens have been laid.
The food at the foot of the mountain is extremely difficult to buy. How about Xiangjue Temple?
"Mother don't worry, Luo Yuxi poured a cup of tea for Shen Qingci and put it in front of her."
The grain harvest in Xiangjue Temple is early, and the grain has not been drenched by the rain. As long as the grain is knocked out, it is enough for the people in the temple to eat for about a year. No matter what, the so-called grain shortage is also Got there.
"That's good," Shen Qing said with a sigh of relief, at least one less worry.
Don't starve that old monk to death.
Of course, she also felt that she was a little worried. The old monk was so good, and it was really impossible for him to go to the point of no grain. He was 80% of the same as her. I don't know how much grain was collected in this secret?
"Yi'er, mother needs you to go out once."
Shen Qingci reached out and picked up the teacup on the table, and then raised his eyes to Luo Yuyi.
Luo Yuyi nodded, what can my mother tell you?
"En," Shen Qingci closed his eyes and calmed down his thoughts a few times. This was what he said.
"You will leave Changyu, stay in the city, and secretly take the grain collected from the three places in Yuchi, the first grade Xiangtun, and send it to your grandparents."
"My mother is worried about my grandparents?"
Luo Yuyi couldn't help but sat up in a precarious manner.
"Isn't the court ready to pull grain for the border gate?"
And the grain and grass at the border have always been from the court. Why, my mother now has to transport grain there. They have a lot of grain accumulated in each warehouse of Yipinxiang. They also know, but now they want to take away these grains. Is it because the court doesn't allocate grain?
"I'm afraid that the court will be overwhelmed by it."
The longer Shen Qing quit, the more transparent she found her life. Of course, there were some things about the daughter country. She no longer likes to rely on others, but likes to be foolproof by herself. From her previous life to rebirth to this world , Has always been in front of Shen Qing's speech, but how to do it is the emperor's heart.
The rain has not stopped. It is already certain that there will be a food shortage this year, and it is not the people, but the soldiers who bear the brunt. Although the world is peaceful, there are countless conflicts in the peace. The four countries are now In a very microsecond situation, Beiqi has always been a minister of Da Zhou, and now the national power is weakening, and now the uppermost emperor is also a little emperor. If the queen mother listens to politics, the internal worries are unsolvable, let alone any more. To lay the groundwork.
Bai Chu has always had a good relationship with Da Zhou, and has always been in the process of resuscitation, and now it is also when the old and new emperors are changing, they will not be too sharp.
When it came to Cang Tao, he had always been anxious. Of course, he was also moving in the silly valley. Somehow he would stretch out his teeth and bite people back.
Even if it was just a bite, it would be extremely painful to Da Zhou. What's more, there were some homeless people on the border of Da Zhou. They would harass the people of Da Zhou from time to time.
