The Prodigal Son of the Empire

If you have food, buy more and stock up.

Those who have no food need to buy more.

Some people can still afford it while it is cheap.

Some people want to hoard it and wait for the price to rise before selling it.

Ordinary urbanites want to stock up, fearing that the price will be higher in the future.

Rich families have to hoard because they have the capital to afford it.

This trend intensified and spread outward from Linzi.

Linzi is an economic center and a wind vane, and it has a great impact.

Under such circumstances, the daily trade in grains increased sharply. From the opening of the doors in the early morning, there were long queues of people scrambling to buy!

The inventory of grain shops is decreasing, and these merchants are also interested in the huge profits, and they have begun to learn from Fuyang to limit purchases.

This seems to be true of rumors, and people's hoarding trend is even more soaring.

Ordinary people are only a small amount, and during this period, some dignitaries began to hoard a large amount in an attempt to make a huge fortune...

There has been a change in the relationship between supply and demand. The oversupply has turned into a shortage, and prices are bound to rise.

getting more serious.

Form a vicious circle.

This may be an inducement, but also a fuse, and the strange but expected turmoil began.

At the beginning, the food supply in the market suddenly dropped sharply. Under this trend, the price jumped in a straight line, which was several times that of before!

In a short time, it became like this, and it became a kind of panic.

Food is the foundation of human life, no one can afford it, and the price is so high, who can bear it?

This caused a chain reaction, and the prices of equivalent food substitutes, vegetables, fruits, meat and other related items also began to soar!

As the cost of living rises, other general consumptions decrease significantly, such as clothing, housing, daily necessities, entertainment and other consumptions.

Qi State is a big country of production, spinning silk and satin, clothing materials and cloth, daily necessities, decoration objects, etc., these are also pillar industries.

And because of the reduction of these consumptions, these industries have been affected, and the demand for domestic sales has decreased.

We can only expand foreign trade to balance it. However, because countries are involved in wars, which seriously damage the market, foreign trade is sluggish.

There is a large surplus of commodities, sales are stagnant, production has dropped sharply, and many workshops and businesses are underemployed and closed down, resulting in many people not working and staying at home.

If you don't work, you can't earn money, and if you can't earn money, you can't meet the increase in living costs.

This forms a vicious circle again!

From food to daily necessities, there have been problems one after another, like dominoes, if one is knocked down, all of them will fall down!

A tiny flame turned into a prairie fire and swept across Linzi!

The largest city in the Qi State, which is also the economic center, was caught in this storm, and gradually expanded, spreading to the surrounding area, and sweeping across the entire Qi State!

Also at this time.

People have discovered a problem, money seems to be worthless, the same money used to buy ten bolts of cloth, but now it can only buy seven, five, or even less.

Inflation, soaring prices.

Everything is in chaos. It is difficult for people in this era to understand, and they don't understand at all. How could such a thing happen?

This is a financial storm, an economic crisis broke out!

And it's getting worse!

Of course, the Qi State court quickly discovered the problem, but even if they knew about it, they didn't know how to deal with it. They lacked such knowledge, and they didn't know how this chaos broke out suddenly!

Also can not effectively control!

The normal rhythm of life has been disrupted!

The place where the battle reports from the front line were announced was less and less crowded, and no one cared about it.

People are no longer in the mood and have no time to pay attention. Their own lives are becoming problems, so how can they care about them?

The officials of the imperial court were overwhelmed. Most of the topics in the previous court council were about the war situation, about logistics supplies, and about the war, but now the focus has been placed on this turmoil!

Because they know very well that if this continues, other problems will definitely arise. If the country is in chaos, how can we fight the battle on the front line?

There was no result in the court discussion, and I didn't know how to solve it, so I could only watch helplessly...

Qi State is close to the sea, its natural geographical location and highly liberalized commercial policies make it the largest economic power in the mainland, but it also has fatal hidden dangers!

Business has too much influence on it, and it can also affect politics.

And in this one.

It has developed to a certain extent, and Fuyang, which occupies a large proportion of Qi's economy, has obstructed and fueled the flames, using the financial means of Fuyang Bank, the influence of Fuyang's industries, and the actual impact brought by the war. Big waves!

No one would have thought that Fuyang was behind the scenes, because Fuyang was the first victim.

In people's opinion, the richer the greater the loss, and Wang Kang is obviously one of them.

Even during this period, the price of grain rose to sky-high prices, but the price in Fuyang was always stable and consistent.

The various industries in Fuyang are still persisting, and no worker has been allowed to leave, even at the expense of his own interests.

Really very conscientious.

In this turmoil, he has earned enough reputation and also gained the trust of the people.

But so what?

The turmoil is still going on, and the economic chaos directly leads to political turmoil, which makes the society unstable, poverty intensifies, and people can't eat enough.

Qi State, the largest economic power in the mainland, has an economic problem...

The first thousand and 320 chapters and three crisis swept!

This plague-like economic crisis is still going on, and it has been several months, and there is still no sign of improvement, but it is getting worse.

The court tried every means, but could not get the slightest relief.
