I can't sleep well either. How can these big men stand it?

As for thinking that Jia Yun would not dare to go too far, Jia Ai's incident has already shown Jia Yun's attitude. If he still persists in his persistence...you can imagine the consequences.

King Zhongshun nodded, yawned, and said with a smile: "I thought this errand would be difficult, but I never expected it to go so smoothly. I guess we can go back to Beijing to do the errand in two days."

When Jia Yun heard this, he cursed in his heart. How easy was it to do this job? If he hadn't taken the risk of offending others, would he have been able to do it?

Of course, Jia Yun didn't dare to say this, because he was a prince.

After a pause, Jia Yun suggested: "Your Majesty, the salt merchant has pledged to donate. This matter is probably a done deal. Now we are thinking about how to buy grain. As far as the official knows, there is not much grain on the market."

Already."

King Zhongshun frowned when he heard this, looked at Jia Yun thoughtfully, and asked, "What do you think?"

Jia Yun replied: "Your Majesty, in addition to building river embankments, part of the money we raise is to buy food to help the victims. In this case, we don't need to ask them to pledge this part of the money, and exchange food for money."

yes."

Generally speaking, wealthy households will have surplus grain, and these salt merchants have even transferred a lot of grain from other provinces to exchange grain for silver, which can indeed save a lot of effort. Moreover, there is enough grain for disaster relief, and the price of grain in the disaster area

It won't skyrocket.

King Zhongshun thought for a moment and asked: "How to exchange grain for silver?"

Jia Yun understood what King Zhongshun meant. At what price should he exchange grain for silver? Yangzhou is located in Jiangsu, adjacent to Henan, and Henan is flooded. The grain in Yangzhou is naturally much higher than before. If Yangzhou is like this

At the time of the grain prices, if you exchange grain for silver, you would actually lose a lot.

"Of course it's based on past food prices." Jia Yun said matter-of-factly.

Due to the floods in Henan, grain prices in various provinces have fluctuated. Not to mention the grain stocks in wealthy businessmen's houses, those who transfer grain from other provinces will suffer a huge loss if they pay the silver at the previous grain prices, especially those who are preparing to make a big profit.

Those who write pens should beat their chests and stamp their feet even more.

King Zhongshun looked hesitant and asked, "What if they refuse to exchange grain for silver?"

Jia Yun said with a smile: "Perhaps there will be a riot by the victims tomorrow, right?"

King Zhongshun couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he heard this. He didn't know why this upright man in front of him in the capital was so murderous. Looking at him, he looked eager to try, as if he was keen on taking action on the salt merchants...

After pondering, King Zhongshun felt that since they had asked them to pledge the donation at this time, there was no need to create extra complications. If the pressure was too much, some of them might actually take risks, and in the end the gain would not be worth the loss.

Shaoqing, King Zhongshun said: "That's all, just give them a two-tier increase based on the previous food prices. If they don't want to, we can do something else."

When Jia Yun heard this, he felt that it was too much to eat other people's meat and sleep with other people's wives.

At this time, a servant reported to the Wu family that Wu Hai asked for an audience.

King Zhongshun looked at Jia Yun and said with a smile: "I'm really impatient!"

He said he was impatient, but in Jia Yun's eyes, these wealthy businessmen knew that things couldn't be done, so they acted decisively without procrastination.

King Zhongshun thought for a moment and planned to let Jia Yun be the vanguard to explore the way first. If the matter failed, he would step in to solve the problem.

So he ordered: "Jia Yun, please see him for me."

Jia Yun was stunned when he heard this. According to King Zhongshun's wishes, he did not intend to step forward and let Jia Yun handle the matter. He nodded, and Jia Yun responded: "Yes..."

After saying this, Jia Yun walked out of the hall to meet with the salt merchant.
