I'm a marquis in Datang

In the mansion of Mo Feng, in the study.

Nearly twenty grain businessmen were all sitting, and each of them had extremely serious expressions on their faces.Because the governor's office has issued an order prohibiting grain merchants from raising prices on the ground, prohibiting raising the price of grain seeds, and taking care of the people.

This order is aimed at them.

Everyone didn't know what to do, so they gathered to visit Mo Feng's mansion, wanting to hear what Mo Feng had to say, and then set the final tone. Whether they should continue to make money at a high price, or follow the government's orders, depends on how they decide at the moment .At this moment, everyone's eyes are on Mo Feng's face, what should be said has been said, and it is waiting for Mo Feng to make a decision.

Mo Feng pondered for a long time, and finally opened his eyes. He glanced at everyone present one by one, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and we want to get more benefits. Naturally, we must act boldly. What's more, I

Our food seeds are not easy to come by, and they are not brought by strong winds. "

"It is not an easy task to store and ensure that the seeds will grow well after sowing. So at the moment, I don't think it is necessary to follow the government's order. What's more, this order from Lanchanghe is also somewhat ambiguous and did not clarify the specifics. Case."

"That being the case, we simply ignore him."

"The most important point is that the merchants in Chang'an have helped His Majesty enter Chang'an. Those of us have also done our best and are meritorious. Even if the Lanchang River is not full, what can we do?"

There was a look of awe on Mo Feng's face, and he said forcefully: "If you really want to anger us, I, Mo Feng, would rather destroy all the grains than sell them to ordinary people at a low price. Even, we can still make trouble. Go before His Majesty."

"well said!"

Among the merchants, someone spoke again.

After someone echoed, the rest of the businessmen spoke up one after another, expressing their opinions one by one. They all chose to support Mo Feng, because they were all people who wanted to make money.

Mo Feng saw that a unified opinion was reached, with a smile on his face, he said again: "Since we have already agreed, let's follow our suggestion in Han Yun's mansion and sell it at double the current price. Han Yun is not willing to accept our benefits , then we keep this benefit for ourselves. Isn’t it good to earn money by ourselves?”

One by one nodded in agreement.

Eventually everyone left.

When they returned to their own grain shops, they began to raise the price of grain seeds.The rise in prices has led to an increase in the price of food,

For many people living in Chang'an today, this is not good news.

Li Shimin left, taking most of the people with him, especially the family members of the officials.Those who stayed in Chang'an, apart from some families and businessmen, were the most ordinary people, and these ordinary people did not have an easy life.Now that the prices of grain and grain seeds have risen, discussions have aroused immediately, and many people have begun to criticize grain merchants as being rich and unkind.

In one day, the news was completely fermented.

Public opinion is even more raging.

Lan Changhe had already sent people to watch him, and he waited until the public opinion was completely fermented, and instead of being angry, he became happy.Because the people headed by Mo Feng finally took the bait. These people have already taken risks for the sake of money and interests, completely disregarding the orders of the imperial court.In particular, the common people are angry and disgusted with these businessmen from the bottom of their hearts, which is what the people want.

This is Lan Changhe's opportunity.

Lan Changhe came out of the study and ordered Zhang Jingzheng to call out the servants of the Jingzhou governor's government office. There were a total of 300 people, and all the servants who could be transferred out.Lan Changhe never mobilized the rest of the garrison troops.There are three hundred soldiers, enough for Lan Changhe to arrest everyone.

Zhang Jingzheng has never known the specific plan until now.When he saw Lan Changhe mobilizing all the soldiers and horses, he felt puzzled and asked, "Inspector Lan, we have mobilized all the yamen servants right now, and these yamen servants are all wearing armor and holding swords, what are we going to do now? , you want to ransack your family and exterminate your family?"

Lan Changhe smiled and said, "Almost."

After Zhang Jingzheng heard it, he thought about it and immediately understood.Lan Changhe did this to deal with the city's continued bid up

Food Price Merchant.You must know that these businessmen had violated the government's order, and now Lan Changhe mobilized troops to deal with it, which is reasonable.

Zhang Jingzheng didn't say much anymore. At this point, the situation would definitely become serious.According to Zhang Jingzheng's deduction, it might even be in front of Du Qi.However, since Lan Changhe dared to do this, he must have made sufficient preparations, so Zhang Jingzheng didn't say much, and just carried out the task in a down-to-earth manner according to Lan Changhe's arrangement.

Lan Changhe didn't care about Zhang Jingzheng's thoughts, he looked around at the yamen servants, said something encouraging, and then directly ordered troops to go straight to the shop where Mo Feng was.

Capture the thief first and capture the king. To deal with these unscrupulous businessmen, it is natural to deal with the ink seal of the head of the businessman.It would be a breeze for the rest of the merchants to deal with the shops that took off the ink seal.

When Lan Changhe led his troops to the shop of the Mo family, the news of Lan Changhe's actions was also discovered by Guo Huai, and he quickly reported the news to Shangguanyi.After Shangguanyi found out, he came to the main hall and reported: "Your Majesty, this Lan Changhe is really brave. Right now, he has mobilized the government servants to take action, and it seems that he wants to deal with the merchants in Chang'an City."

Du Qi said: "Lan Changhe directly mobilized his troops to take action. He is so courageous, isn't it?"

Shangguanyi nodded and said: "Your Majesty, Lan Changhe is indeed courageous and responsible, and dares to act. Before that, I was worried that he didn't have the experience in governing, so he didn't dare to take action. Looking at it now, it is indeed good."

There was a smile on Du Qi's face.

Lan Changhe lived up to his hopes.

What Du Qi needs is an official who dares to act and act. This is the talent Du Qi needs.

Shangguan Yi said: "Now we just need to wait for the news. Of course, there should be some small episodes in the middle. These merchants in Chang'an City are all powerful. According to my deduction, they are very likely to come to you for help. After all These businessmen once helped His Majesty. They are willing to pay their friendship in exchange for His Majesty's action."

Du Qi said with a smile: "Lan Changhe has already thought of this point, so he came here in person."

Shangguanyi said: "Lan Changhe is brave and resourceful, cautious and thoughtful in doing things, which is indeed good. He is in charge of the Jingzhou area, and he is convinced by countless people in Jingzhou. After this incident, Lanchanghe can completely stand in Chang'an. Keep your feet on your feet."

Du Qi said: "Let's wait and see."

Shangguanyi also nodded.

The stage has been set up, and it depends on the protagonist, Lan Changhe, who can

How far will things go this time.

Chapter 1240 Strong Action

strong action

Outside the shop of the Mo family.

There are many people here now, and they all come to buy grain seeds.After all, grain seeds are needed everywhere in Jingzhou, and some hawkers come to buy them one after another, and then they can buy them and resell them.It's just that the price of the grains in the Mohist shop suddenly doubled, and the price was too expensive.According to this price, even if these vendors bought it, it would not be easy to sell it, so there were some voices of dispute in the shop.

The hawkers keep haggling, hoping to lower the price of grain seeds so that they can be bought cheaper.But the shopkeeper of the Mohist store insisted on not lowering the price, and his tone was very aggressive. He directly said that he would like to buy it or not, and he would give money to those who were willing to buy it, and he was unwilling to buy it away.

Even so, many hawkers have never left and are still fighting for the slim chances.In such quarrels, though there are many peddlers,

In fact, there are very few transactions.

Many hawkers are afraid to buy.

I was afraid that if I gave the money, the grain seeds I bought in the end would be lost and I would not be able to sell them.

In the midst of such an argument, suddenly, a waiter from a shop rushed in and shouted: "Shopkeeper, it's not good, the government is here."

The name of the shopkeeper is Mo Jiu.

It's from the Mofeng family.

Mo Jiu heard the waiter's voice, snorted, and scolded: "Why panic, what's the proper way to panic. The head of the family has already anticipated this matter, so don't worry. Listen to me and cheer up Already, follow me to deal with the government officials."

Raising prices is tantamount to violating government orders.

The ink seal has long been considered.

So he had already sent letters to the shopkeepers of various shops. Now that Mo Jiu got the news, he didn't panic at all. On the contrary, he calmly led the waiter in the shop and the people maintaining order in the shop to the door.
