"Your Majesty, the price of Chang'an cloth suddenly changed today. Coarse cloth, fine silk, and silk have all gone up to varying degrees!"
In Ganlu Temple, Zhao Song quietly walked in and said to Li Ergong.
Li Er frowned, and said unhappily: "Can you find out who is hoarding and driving up cloth prices~?"
In this era, the upper-level rulers do not have much financial awareness. Naturally, there is no phenomenon of excessive currency devaluation and soaring prices. Under normal circumstances, prices will get out of control only in troubled times. When Li Yuan was in power, he did not lose control. Despite domestic prices, because stable prices are often a symbol of peace and stability in a country, prices in the early Tang Dynasty were quite low.
Why didn't Li Er understand this? He was very concerned about domestic prices, especially those in Chang'an, so when he heard the price changes in Chang'an City, his brows frowned.
Zhao Song bowed and said, "My Majesty, it's not that individual vendors are hoarding, but that almost all the cloth vendors in the entire Chang'an City are raising prices at the same time! Yesterday and today, several dealers outside the city entered the city one after another. The large quantities of coarse cloths were purchased in large quantities. The coarse cloths in many cloth workshops were completely wiped out. When the cloth merchants saw this, they raised their prices collectively! However, the ready-to-wear shop in Hou's house in Yong'an and Cao's, the first cloth merchant in Chang'an City The cloth shop did not increase the price!"
"There are such miracles? Why do people buy cloth in large quantities? Li Zexuan, Cao's family?"
Li Er was surprised. He stood up, walked back and forth two steps with his hands, and suddenly said, "Did Li Zexuan and Cao's family form some Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce a few months ago?"
Zhao Song lowered his head and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Li Er seemed to understand, and murmured: "So, the reason why the Cao family didn't raise the cloth price should be instructed by Li Zexuan? What the is this kid doing? How do I think he had anticipated the cloth price meeting in Chang'an City in advance? Soaring? This must have something to do with him!"
Zhao Song's eyelids moved, and then he was silent again like an old monk entering Ding!
After a while, Li Er said: "Look up why these dealers suddenly bought so many cloths! At the same time, he ordered Liu Dewei, Qing Dali Temple, to strictly investigate the vendors who maliciously bid up cloth prices in Chang'an City!"
"Old slave follow the order!"
Zhao Song arched his hands and walked out.

Chang'an City is always full of well-informed people, especially for the big brothers in the court, there are few secrets in Chang'an City that they don’t know. When the price of cloth in the city is soaring today, they all received news one after another, even some People also know that a large number of farmers who buy cloth are from Lantian County-Li Zexuan's fief!
Combined with the fact that only Li Zexuan's and Cao Wendong's cloths in Chang'an City did not increase in price, the answer behind the incident is ready to come out, but the truth of the matter is really puzzling!
What exactly does Li Zexuan want to do? Why does he instigate dealers to buy cloth in large quantities? What will be the purpose of these cloths?
The court officials are all puzzled!
It's not that they are not well informed. It is because the dealers are surprisingly tight. The dealers have asked, the householders sent by courtiers have asked, and the dealers on other dealers have also asked, but they have not asked.
Li Zexuan's seemingly unremarkable decision has touched the nerves of many people. The main reason is that Li Zexuan's performance in Chang'an City over the past six months has been too brilliant, and now that news about him will attract a lot of attention.
"Xiaoxuan, the old man heard that all the dealers on your Zhuangzi are buying cloth everywhere. Has your boy been doing anything mysterious recently?"
Approaching the evening, Cheng Yaojin came to Li Mansion and found Li Zexuan. The old man didn't mean anything, and after taking his seat in the main hall of Li Mansion, he asked straightforwardly.
Li Zexuan's brows frowned imperceptibly. The farmers collectively kept the vegetable in the greenhouse secret. He already knew this. Of course he understood the thoughts of the farmers, and he also hoped that his own farmers could be the first batch. People who enjoy the bonus of greenhouse vegetables.
However, the Li family has a very close relationship with the Cheng family. It can be said that the benefits that the dealers of the Cheng family now enjoy are basically implemented by Cheng Yaojin following Li Zexuan’s policy towards the dealers. Now Cheng Yaojin personally comes to ask the dealers to suddenly buy land. Things, this makes Li Zexuan a little bit embarrassed, to say, or not to say?
For him, it doesn't matter whether it is said or not, but for his own dealers, it is different!
This market in Chang'an City is not small or big. If more people share food, the people in Li Zexuan Village will naturally get less profit.
"Uncle Cheng, it is true that my nephew has a way to grow vegetables in the winter. Many oil cloths are used in it. My nephew has passed this method to the farmers on the land~www.mtlnovel. com~ So they will buy cloth in Chang'an City in the next few days!"
After weighing it for a moment, Li Zexuan decided to tell the truth. He believed that Cheng Yaojin knew how to measure.
At the very least, he will give the dealers some means to make money. Can the money in this world be made? Even if the dealers on the Cheng family's confession started to engage in greenhouses, Li Zexuan felt that the income of his own dealers would never be low!
"Huh? Can you grow vegetables in winter~? Xiaoxuan, did you hear me wrong?"
Cheng Yaojin's first reaction was surprise, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and his face was incredible!
Li Zexuan nodded and said, "Well, Uncle Cheng, you heard me right! My nephew will take you to see something!"
Cheng Yaojin didn't know why, but he followed Li Zexuan to the west courtyard.
Seeing the half-person tall greenhouse in the west courtyard, coupled with Li Zexuan's explanation on the side, Cheng Yaojin finally accepted the reality of greenhouse vegetables for the time being.
"If your greenhouse can really grow vegetables in winter, then the farmer of your fief will make a lot of money this year! It is estimated that Lantian County will also become the top three counties in Chang'an City! Haha! Your kid treats his farmer But I really have nothing to say!"
Cheng Yaojin stroked his beard and exclaimed.
Li Zexuan smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps!"
Cheng Yaojin squeezed his chin, thought for a moment, and said, "That's it, the old man shouldn't come today! This thing was originally a benefit for your own housekeeper, but it was known by the old man. It shouldn't be! Don't worry, old man. Right today, I have heard nothing!"
Lao Cheng is not a stupid person, he knows how to advance and retreat. Although he is a little jealous of the huge profits of greenhouse vegetables, he will not take advantage of his own family!
