Chapter 919

"How unreasonable!"

Ao Huang was furious.

"Can't you do good for the people?"

"If the imperial examination candidates can spend money to buy things for the people to improve their performance, then the imperial examination is to compare who has a deep background, who has a high family status and who has money. Even my Fang's library will not be included in the imperial examination!" Fang Yun said.

Ao Huang nodded helplessly and said, "I forgot. You people attach great importance to etiquette and some rules, which can't be broken. What should we do? We can't transport them in the normal way. We can't sell the grain obtained from drinking Jiangbei, nor give it to the people. Everything has been calculated by the Zuo Xiang party! Zuo Xiang is worthy of being crafty and cunning. Compared with him, we are too young."

Fang Yun said: "there are many shadows of senior officials in this incident, but Liu Shan may only allow them to do so without entering in person. According to my judgment, he hasn't officially shot yet."

"How do you understand that?"

"This incident has brought my farming and people's livelihood to class C at most. For Liushan, it's not worth coming to an end in person. Unless..."

"Unless something."

"It's very simple to let Liu Shan end. He thought of a way to force me out of the palace examination and lose my qualification as a scholar in the palace examination!"

"It's impossible. Unless he can wipe Ning'an county from the Shengyuan mainland, there's no power to force you out of the palace! However, the top priority is how to deal with the food price. It's a green and yellow March. The people in Ning'an county have never been short of food and have no habit of storing a large amount of food. If it continues, I'm afraid it will lead to riots! Once there are serious consequences, those grain traders will naturally die But it's just a fine, and you have to pay the price of not being promoted to grade B in agriculture and people's livelihood. "

Fang Yun said: "the key is not the rating of these two subjects. If someone dies and I dare not buy food for free to the people, I'm afraid I'll have a new nickname, killing county magistrate Fang Zhenguo!"

"How poisonous!" Ao Huang's teeth itched with hatred.

Fang Yun said, "Geng Ge hates me to the bone and is also a confidant of Liushan. Even if I go to the transportation department, it is useless. Therefore, I put my hope on the Beimang army. The Beimang army is stationed in Ning'an county. Except for the county government, only the Beimang army can open warehouses and release grain. General Ding is a generation of heroes. As long as I sincerely persuade him, he may abandon his factional views and help the people."

"This hope is very small. After all, general Ding can't disobey general Yingyang's order."

"It's better to have than not."

Fang Yun said, his eyebrows moved, lifted the curtain, looked out from the gap and listened.

"Go and buy grain! The price of grain has increased again! It's scary!"

"When I heard the new grain price, I hurried to my house two blocks away to get the rice bag. When I ran back to the grain shop, the rice price rose by 20%, only two blocks!"

"Hateful, it's already three times the ordinary food price! It's still rising!"

"What does county magistrate Fang do? He hasn't opened his warehouse to calm down the grain price?"

"Who knows, maybe he is with those profiteers!"

"Fart! County magistrate Fang is short of money? Hundreds of millions of liang of silver is used to build a library. How much can Ning'an County earn from selling grain?"

"You people are really ignorant! The Terran has long had the strategy of selling grain at a flat price. In the year of harvest, if the grain price is too low, the government will buy grain at a normal price, which is called 'flat buying'; in the year of famine, if the grain production is reduced and the price is too high, the government will sell the stored grain at a normal price, which is called 'flat selling'. Therefore, don't worry! There are a lot of grain in the granary of Ning'an County, even if there is a lot of grain If there is no food in the granary of Ning'an County, the Yingyang army will not see us starve to death. "

"What I said is..."

"Eh? Those private soldiers... Seem to be Fang Xusheng's car?"

"It's so fast. Get out of the way. I'm afraid it's a big deal to deal with."

"Is it related to food prices?"

Fang Yun had a heavy heart and said nothing.

Ao Huang said in a low voice, "it seems that the bastards of the left Prime Minister party will calm down the grain price and get a good reputation with the grain reserves of the eagle army after they are sure that you are unable to calm down the grain price and reduce the rating."

Fang Yun said, "I'm afraid the food they used to calm down the grain price is the food transported from the county grain depot last night!"

"These bastards! Don't we have any way?" Ao Huang hated.

"If general Ding gives up helping me, there is nothing I can do!" Fang Yun said and sent a letter to general Ding Haosheng of the northern mang army.

However, general Ding did not reply.

Fang Yun's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, but he still rushed to Beimang military camp.

A quarter of an hour later, Ding Haosheng replied to the letter.

"I went to Yuyang pass yesterday, not in Ning'an county. Although I have the heart to save the people, I can't help it. I hope Fang Xusheng will forgive me."

In the biography, "Fang Xusheng" was used instead of "Fang county magistrate". It can be seen that Ding Haosheng did not do it deliberately, but was in the army and was difficult to disobey the military order.

"Just... Turn around and go to the county literary academy. I'll talk there." Fang Yun said.

"Shall we... Use tough means to catch the people in the grain store like the workshop owner?"

"The workshop owners I arrested are either those who have workshops in the county or those who have worked as workshop owners in the county before. The grain shop belongs to private property, and how they price is not affected by the government. In other words, the government has the ability to affect the price, but it can only be determined by the cabinet."

"What shall we do?" Ao Huang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"Although the food price is high, people will not die of hunger for at least three or five days. I use this time to think about countermeasures. Just..." Fang Yun looked very serious.

"Just what?" Ao Huang asked curiously.

Fangyun Road: "It's just that March 19th is the day when the medical ethics and culture conference is held. It can't be so coincidental... I see! They suddenly raise food prices after determining the date of the medical ethics and culture conference, which makes the people miserable and makes many medical scholars disgusted or even disgusted. If the chaos is to the extreme, it will even lead to the cancellation of the medical ethics and incite the doctors to attack my medical ethics! Once the medical temple and The ceremony hall decided that there was a problem with my medical ethics. No matter how good the medical articles I wrote in the palace examination, they were only grade B in the end and couldn't get Grade A. "

"Well... They kill three birds with one stone."

"Compared with this time, the way that the officials of Ning'an County hurt me before is ridiculous!" Fang Yun said.

"Alas... What to do, what to do..."

"This matter is urgent, so we should take a long-term view." Fang Yun said and closed his eyes, but he was actually trying his best to think about how to solve the dangerous situation of grain prices.

Ao Huang carefully observed Fang Yun and found that although he was calm, he was slightly tired. It can be seen that the situation was very unusual, which was definitely the biggest difficulty encountered in the palace examination.

"Alas..." Ao Huang sighed, "the lecture has been decided and I can't go. If I go, in case someone asks about the price of food, then... Alas..."

Fang Yun never said a word.

The carriage stopped at the side door of the County Cultural Institute. Fang Yun got off and walked slowly to the holy temple square.
