Chapter 1323

This economic crisis, which is as terrible as the plague, is still going on. It has been several months, and there is still no sign of improvement. Instead, it is getting worse and worse.

The imperial court tried every means but could not get any relief.

And its horror has begun to show.

There is only one result of this continuation, and that is riots.

Economic crisis will lead to social contradictions. When patience reaches the limit, there will be resistance.

In many places, there have been serious riots.

Smashing, looting, burning, marching and protesting.

In this case, the local government's hard advice failed. In order to avoid the situation expanding, it can only suppress it violently!

Once the nature of the use of force is different, the oppressed must be more intense, and the corresponding oppression will be more intense.

From economic contradiction to social contradiction, the contradiction intensifies and becomes more serious

The palace.

On the main hall, Gao Yanzong looked at the stacks of volumes piled up on the Dragon case. These are all the reports from different places.

Every time he saw one, his face sank!

"Bang!"

Not finished, he directly raised his hand to push it all down and throw it on the ground!

And the lower courtiers are shivering!

The emperor Shengwu, even in the case of Wei's rebellion and Zhao's withdrawal, was always calm and calm, but now he lost his temper!

He was sure before, but not this time!

Because it's just dark.

It's more serious than he expected.

"The state of Qi is the most prosperous economic power, and Linzi is the most powerful city in the mainland. Even the most ordinary citizens have no worries about food and clothing. Now there are a large number of refugees, a large number of poor people!"

"Why?"

"Why

Gao Yanzong stood up and growled: "and there are still people who have started riots. This is something that has never happened before. How can it happen?"

His face was very ugly, his hair was messy, his spirit was not good, and he could see a kind of obvious fatigue.

He has taken some measures.

We will open up our granaries and make up for the deficit.

The purchasing power of money is devalued, and people can't afford to buy things. He opened the national treasury to supplement the market circulation.

However, the more so, the bigger the problem!

But he ignored an essential relationship between supply and demand.

It just feels like there's no way to start.

Tian Jun, the Prime Minister of cloth clothes, has spread his ability all over the mainland. In the face of this unprecedented crisis, he is helpless!

How to solve it?

Everyone is sad.

In this way, it is likely to shake the national foundation!

The war ahead is still going on.

How can war be fought when such problems arise in China?

"Hu Yaohua!"

Gao Yanzong pointed to a middle-aged man in official uniform and said angrily, "you are the Secretary of the Ministry of household. Come and tell me how to deal with this matter. Is there any way?"

The adult trembled, and then said: "the starting point of the outbreak is grain, so to solve it, we should start with grain!"

"Several of our granaries have been opened up to save the market, but they still can't fill the deficit, and they have to reserve for war use, which is a little worse."

"What's the difference

"This..."

Hu Yaohua said in a low voice: "I don't know the quantity. The main thing is to balance..."

"You don't know. Aren't you talking nonsense?"

"Your Majesty, your dragon body is the most important thing."

"Go away!"

"Go away!"

Gao Yanzong was so angry that he ordered another man and asked, "Li Xu, what do you say to do with it?"

The official said: "I think it's normal for me to see such a thing happen. It's not the money and grain that causes it, but the war. In my opinion, if I ever launch a war, there will be no problem. As long as I stop the war and take the size of Qi, everything can be restored as usual..."

"What did you say?"

Gao Yanzong's eyes narrowed slightly.

"I'm just telling you the truth. Please make atonement!"

The official knelt down immediately, and then he responded.

The more this time, the more we can't shake the morale of the army. He obviously committed a taboo.

"The war is a critical period. At this time, the withdrawal of troops is over. Not only is nothing accomplished, but it may even face the counter attack of Chu state. Have you considered these?"

Gao Yanzong said coldly, "I'll forgive you once for your heartfelt consideration. You have remembered that anyone who dares to disturb the morale of the army will be killed without mercy. I don't want to hear such words about ending the war again."

"Yes

A crowd was busy answering.

He went on: "it may be because of the war, but it's not entirely because of it. Before the war, we had a clear calculation. It's true that the consumption of this time is a bit large, but it can't be to this extent!""Throughout the history of Qi, there has never been such a thing."

He pointed to Tian Jun and asked, "can you tell me how to deal with it?"

Tian Jun said in a low voice: "you are right. War is not the main reason, but an inducement at most. To tell you the truth, I have never experienced such a thing, and there is no good way, but one thing is imminent, that is, to stabilize food prices!"

"The price of grain has gone up crazily and every day. It's frightening. Rice is more expensive than gold. People can't afford it. There will be problems."

"What do you say?"

Tian Jun continued: "in fact, we've put a lot of grain into the market. It's not going to be stable, but it's not going to be soaring. This shows that someone is behind the scenes!"

"Go on!"

"As far as I know, at the beginning of the crisis, many powerful people were hoarding grain on a large scale, driving up grain prices and trying to make huge profits!"

Tian Jun's words made everyone feel shocked.

It's normal for this to happen.

Human greed.

The more time of crisis, the more people are desperate.

The most fundamental reason is interest.

Tian Jun opened his mouth and said, "in this crisis, some people are down and out overnight, while others are getting rich overnight."

"It's not that there is no grain on the market, but that the grain is in the hands of a few people."

On the contrary, Gao Yanzong calmed down and asked, "who are there?"

"The royal family, the nobles are waiting for power!"

They were stunned again. In fact, they didn't know this situation.

But they did not dare to say, and only the cloth Prime Minister dared to say.

Besides, doesn't your majesty know?

I'm afraid he knows it.

But I don't know what to do.

These people are deep-rooted aristocratic power ministers, imperial relatives and relatives, and they will stir up the whole body. How can they make a big mess, even more serious than the riots of the people.

Even the Qi emperor should not be too radical.

"It's just one side."

Tian Jun said: "the political and economic system of Qi state is too free and open. According to Wei Chen, it's still necessary to tie the bell. Saving the market is saving the country. At present, the most suitable role is Fuyang, that is, Wang Kang..."
