Imperial study room

When Shu An came here, Changsun Wuji and the other three had already stood aside, but their faces looked worried.

Obviously because of this drought, even the three of them were shocked after receiving the secret report.

"Give Afather a throne."

When Li Shimin saw Shu An's eyes lit up, he said, this time he also received the favor of this Asian father.

After all, if this father of Asia had not reminded him, then he would not know that a severe drought occurred in the pass.

The difference between early discovery and late discovery is huge. At least he can mobilize food from other places earlier so that too many people will not die.

You should know that after the drought is reported and then disaster relief, it will take half a month to go back and forth even in the area within the pass, not to mention that it has not been reported yet.

"See Your Majesty!"

"Have you met the teacher!"

After saluting each other, Li Shimin was the first to ring with a hint of murderous intent.

"Let the officials of the Ministry of Personnel go down to check first."

"If there is any violation or concealment, you can take it directly."

"In addition, food is drawn from all regions to provide disaster relief!"

....

Shu An listened on the side, her face couldn't help but feel a little emotional. It seemed that Li Shimin's anger was not because of the disaster.

But these people under him actually concealed it and did not report it, but Shu An shook his head, after all, he did not report good news.

As long as something really happens in the end, there is basically no impossible report, but it will be too late by that time.

However, after Li Shimin finished speaking, a hint of ugly expression appeared on Changsun Wuji and others.

"Your Majesty, last year, the general amnesty in the world of Chang'an did not have much food storage in the report."

Fang Xuanling said with a wry smile on his face, especially because His Majesty was amnesty for the world, and he did not receive much tax at all.

After he finished speaking, Li Shimin was stunned, but he seemed to remember that he had indeed been amnesty once and exempted a lot of taxes.

"Then can only mobilize food from Luoyang?"

Li Shimin's expression fell on several important officials and said slowly, with a hint of helplessness in his words.

You should know that the journey from Luoyang to Chang'an is continuous, and if you have to transport a large amount of food, it will not be possible to transport it in a short time.

"Your Majesty, can you buy a batch of food from the rice merchant first for emergency response?"

A glimmer of light flashed across Du Ruhui's eyes and said, "After all, this is a drought, and it will definitely not happen if there is no food."

It’s better to buy a batch of food first to respond to the emergency. When the food arrives later, it’s enough to take it up, and there will be no gaps in food shortage.

After the words were finished, the faces of the people present except Shu An lit up, even if it was Li Shimin.

"Jun Xian, how much is the rice price in Chang'an now?"

Li Shimin's eyes couldn't help but fall on Li Junxian and said, "He was not sure about the price of rice in Chang'an.

After all, as an emperor, your energy is not infinite, and there are some things that you can't remember too much.

"Your Majesty, the price of rice in Chang'an is now ten cents!"

Li Junxian said with a wry smile that these aristocratic families have quite a few shops in Guanzhong, and they will know about the drought at the first time.

Therefore, the rice price in Chang'an was raised early. After all, if the Guanzhong drought severely and there was no harvest of particles, the food in the surrounding areas would naturally rise.

"Bang!"

"It's outrageous!"

After the words were finished, Li Shimin became angry first, and these aristocratic families took the opportunity to make a fortune.

If he remembers it correctly, the normal price of Changan rice is five cents per dou, but now it has doubled.

Changsun Wuji's expression was as normal, because these rice merchants were all Shandong gentry, and they had nothing to do with the Longxi nobles.

Du Ruhui was naturally similar. He originally cared about the affairs of the aristocratic family, and this matter had nothing to do with himself. However, Fang Xuanling's expression was a bit ugly. Obviously, he did not expect that these aristocratic families would make disasters and make profits.

"Your Majesty, do you still have to buy grain from rice merchants?"

Changsun Wuji couldn't help but say after Li Shimin's temper faded, and his words were filled with a hint of temptation.

Because even he didn't know whether His Majesty would compromise like these rice merchants.

"purchase!"

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said, with a kind of resentment in his words.

"Maybe, you can buy food from me."

At this moment, Shu'an's faint voice sounded, and even he did not expect that the food shortage near Chang'an had reached this point.

However, Chang'an was originally a place where people gathered, and the food consumed every day was quite large.

I may not care about it normally, but when I get drought, I find that there is not much food in Chang'an.

No wonder Changsun Wuji and others firmly opposed the Turkish troops before, and this food is probably a big problem.

After Shu An finished speaking, a thunder fell in the ears of several people, which seemed to be a joke.

"Father Ya, I have never had a rice shop in Shufu."

Li Shimin's voice sounded, and there was less gentleness in his words, obviously thinking that Shu An was joking.

Of course, I also felt a little angry. If I had known that I wouldn't invite this cheap father-in-law to come, I would actually joke about this kind of thing.

Shu An also disregarded the change in Li Shimin's attitude. If it weren't for his identity, someone else would have been dragged out long ago.

"Although I didn't open a rice shop, I planned to open a rice shop, so I bought a lot of grain before."

Shu An's eyes continued to sound without any fluctuations. He originally wanted to keep food and wait for refugees to pour into Chang'an, but it seemed that he could make some money first.

Instead of letting those aristocratic families or wealthy businessmen earn, it is better to let them make money.

However, Shu'an's voice did not change the attitude of Li Shimin and others. After all, although Shu'an purchased grain, it was estimated that it would be only a few hundred stones at most.

However, Du Ruhui had some doubts in his eyes, because he believed that his teacher would not do this for no reason.

"I wonder how much food the teacher has?"

Du Ruhui's voice sounded, obviously he attached great importance to this issue. It would be nice if there was a thousand stone words, at least it would make the treasury spend less.

After all, the teacher’s meaning is very obvious, that is, he will be sold to the court at a cheap price.

"Twenty thousand stones!"

Shu An said softly with his eyes flashing, and finally a sensible person appeared. As for the emperor Li Shimin, he took it for granted.

After the words were finished, the people present were stunned. Their first reaction was how could this be possible, even if all rice merchants in Chang'an now have at most several thousand stones.

And Shu'an's 20,000 s of grain, even the treasury in Chang'an is probably not so much grain.

With this sound in the imperial study, the atmosphere instantly fell into a strange silence, and it was obvious that everyone did not recover from the shock.

"Twenty thousand stones, how is this possible?"
