Come to Song Dynasty with the system

With the hope of their clan, the two brothers went straight to the six cities controlled by Su Shi, and arrived at Xianzhou City in early March with a large amount of silver.

Fu Yun, an official from the Ministry of Commerce, had been waiting here for the two brothers for a long time. After seeing Cui Yuanshan and the others, he led them to the place where grain was stored in the city.

When the granary was opened and countless bags of grain were revealed, the two brothers, although they were well-informed, were still frightened by the scene in front of them.

"So many? Are they all going to be sold to the Liao Kingdom?" After being shocked for a long time, Cui Yuanshan said while swallowing his saliva.

He took a quick look and found that there were about [-] dan of grain in this granary. From a distance, there were probably dozens of such granaries.

According to this era, if one person has two meals a day and can eat half a catty of grain a day, one stone of grain can meet the needs of one person for two hundred days, that is, the needs of 200 people a day.Five thousand dan is what a million people need for a day.

So there are so many granaries here, doesn't it mean that this food is enough for the entire Liao Kingdom for three months?

"Yes, they can all be sold to the Liao Kingdom, but how much they can be sold for depends on how much money you have and how big your appetite is." Fat Fu Yun said with a smile.

"But I don't know... I don't know, how much will these grains cost?" Cui Daotong, who was also swallowing his saliva, asked carefully.

"The price is very cheap. A dou of fine rice is only half a tael of silver, and a dou of coarse rice is only a hundred guan." Fu Yun still said with a smile.

"What? So low?" At this moment, the two Cui brothers asked in disbelief when they heard the price.

"Yes, it is so low. Your Cui family's purchase price is even lower, which is [-]% of the selling price. Although you can only make [-]% of the profit, don't forget that with large quantities and full control, you will definitely be able to earn a lot. But remember If you live in a house, the price cannot be changed, otherwise, the King of Heaven will be angry, and you, the Cui family, will not be able to afford the consequences." When he said this, Fu Yun's face became a little more serious.

"This is natural, this is natural." Cui Yuanshan and Cui Daotong nodded hurriedly and agreed repeatedly.

Cui has decided to completely surrender to Su Shi's side, so naturally she doesn't dare to play any tricks at this time.It's just that they really can't understand that with such a low price, which is even lower than the cost of people farming their own land, does the Dragon King still have any benefit at all?

Fu Bi also couldn't understand. At this time, he was asking Su Shi this question in the palace of the King of Heaven.

"Is the price low? That's right." Su Shi sat on the Taishi chair and laughed.

Seeing that Su Shi was still smiling, Fu Bi said angrily, "Such a low price is probably only available if we cultivate high-yielding crops such as potatoes and sweet potatoes. But don't forget, There is a lot of refined grain in the grain sales this time. At this price, we are afraid that we can’t even cover the cost, so why do we do this?”

Su Shi's authority was extremely strong, and few people would ask why for anything he decided.

They just need to do what Su Shi told them, and it won't take long for the facts to prove that Su Shi's decision is correct.

But there are always some people who are willing to get into trouble and ask why.It's just that many of these people are not qualified enough and have no power to appear.

Beside Su Shi.Fu Bi was a person with status and a question, so he asked why.

If others asked, Su Shi would not answer.I naturally have my own ideas when doing things, and there is no need to explain anything to others.

Fu Bi is different. He is the Minister of Government Affairs. If he has a grudge in his heart and starts to give up at work, the internal affairs will become chaotic. This is definitely not what Su Shi wants to see.

Knowing that he couldn't answer, Su Shi's expression turned serious and said: "Minister Fu, whatever I say to you next is a secret and cannot be passed into the ears of others. Do you understand?"

Seeing how serious Su Shi was at this moment, Fu Bi nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, please give me some advice from the King of Heaven."

"Yes. That being the case, I would like to ask you, is the price of this food low?"

"Low."

"Then I am asking you whether this price is lower than the cost of growing grain in Liao Kingdom."

"Yes."

"Okay, then I am asking you, if there is such an extremely low price of grain for sale, will the Liao Kingdom pay attention to farming in the future? If there is no grain, it will be over just buying it. In this way, their land will be desolate. If one day, this king wants to send troops to the Liao Kingdom and cut off their food routes first, tell me, what will be the result?"

"hiss!"

After hearing this last sentence, Fu Bi couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Yes, if it were you, and you could buy and sell food that was lower than the cost of planting, then you really wouldn't have to work hard to cultivate it, which would inevitably lead to the end of fertile land that no one can cultivate.At this time, once its food routes are cut off, it is not feasible to resume agricultural production.

What happened overnight, at that time, the Liao Kingdom was really at the mercy of the Dragon Army's cavalry.

Thinking of this possible outcome, Fu Bi finally knew why Su Shi wanted to sell grain at a low price.

This is basically a food war, and it is also laying the foundation for a war to destroy the country.

And ordinary people simply cannot see this terrible result.The reason is that not many people can do this.

After all, in this era of extremely backward technology, it seems that there is never enough food.Who would think of selling their own food at low prices to disrupt their opponents?

I'm afraid only a systematic person like Su Shi, who has endless food, would come up with such an idea of ​​​​destroying people's escape.

Fu Bi finally understood and understood why Su Shi did this. He also understood that the importance of this matter should never be discussed with others.

"King of Heaven, you shouldn't have told me about this. Aren't you afraid that I might accidentally tell you?" At this moment, Fu Bi began to blame Su Shi for telling him the reason.

Not knowing the truth is nothing more than having doubts, but if you know the truth, once you accidentally tell it, let the Liao Kingdom know and be prepared.Selling grain at low prices is not destroying the enemy, but rather subsidizing the enemy.

This fact is really of great importance, so important that Fu Bi regretted asking why.

"Then it's none of my business. You want to know. You won't give up until I tell you." Su Shi said as if everything was your own request, and I didn't force it on you.

"Well... okay, I will sleep alone after I go back, and no one will be allowed to come ten steps away from the bedroom, otherwise I will

kill. "Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Fu Bi also said fiercely.

He could control himself not to talk to others when he was awake, but he could not guarantee that he could control himself when talking in his sleep. If he let it slip, it would be a heinous crime.

Su Shi didn't expect Fu Bi to be so cruel to him.I have to sigh in my heart that those who can become famous ministers really have ambitions that are not as strong as those of ordinary people.

Fu Bi had no problem, so other officials naturally did not dare to say anything and allowed a large amount of grain to be taken away by the Cui brothers and headed straight for the Liao Kingdom.

Su Shi's low-priced grain has entered the customs.

The soldiers in the western border of Liao State inspected the grain and gave it a pass.But when the general guarding the gate casually asked about the price of food, he immediately lost his composure.

This food is too cheap. At least he has never seen such low-priced food in his entire life.

So, doesn’t everyone have enough to eat?Will hunger become the number one problem for people's survival?

When the general learned of the price, he immediately wrote a memorial and had people rush to the capital of Liao Kingdom at a speed of eight hundred miles.At the same time, the price of grain was also known to other officers and soldiers, and then the people knew about it, and the sensation began to spread outward.

All of this was naturally done intentionally by the Cui brothers.This was Fu Yun's original order. As for why he did this, the two brothers didn't know. They only knew that they wanted to make a lot of money.

Go to the Imperial Palace in Beijing.

In the court hall, when the news was revealed by Liao Xingzong himself, the civil and military officials in the court were not calm.

"why?"

All the ministers asked this question almost unanimously.

It’s really food

The price is too low, too low for them to accept and believe.

"Oh, here is a letter written by King Longtian to me. It said that Yin Yuhu sent people to assassinate his two princesses a while ago. He was very angry and determined to take revenge. He also said that this was his private matter. Please ask us The Liao Kingdom does not want to participate. In order to express its gratitude, it will continue to sell our low-priced grains in the future." Liao Xingzong said while picking up another letter with a look of pride on his face.

Su Shi showed good intentions and offered such benefits, which was enough to prove that Su Shi had no intention of becoming an enemy of the Liao Kingdom.His eyes were probably just focused on Gao Li.

Otherwise, selling low-priced grain to himself would not be siding with the enemy. Isn't Su Shi afraid that after the Liao Kingdom gets this grain, they will turn around and cause trouble for them?

"I see."

All the civil and military ministers smiled happily when they heard this explanation.

Su Shi wanted to deal with Yin Yuhu, but he was also worried that Liao would send troops, so he did this.

In this way, this person is still a wise man. Even so, what if he is allowed to destroy Yin Yuhu?

By the way, this Yin Yuhu is also an extremely fucked up person. If you want to fight Su Shi, just send troops to fight in an upright manner, but you want to send someone to assassinate the princess.Given Su Shi's character of always seeking revenge, it would be strange if he didn't take revenge.

This incident was enough to prove that Su Shi was still afraid of their Liao Kingdom, which immediately made everyone look down upon them, and they almost wrote the words "I am the best" on their faces.

Zhang Jian was also standing below, and he had doubts in his heart.

But doubts are doubts, and he also

I don’t understand why Su Shi would sell grain to Liao at low prices.If you have any other thoughts, the food is just there. This is a fact, and the price is so low. What else can you think of?
