The news of 60 liters of rice shocked all grain merchants in the capital. They had seen such a playful person. They had just taken over and lost 20 cents. How could they do such a business?

"Shameless, it's simply shameless. Let's join forces to find Xiao Letian... This matter cannot be counted, we have to live." The grain merchants looked at the mountains of rice in the warehouse, and were so angry that they almost vomited blood.

But when these big bosses were clamoring, they were scared to see the cold light on the new army bayonets on the street, they all shrank their necks and retreated.

"Masters, Xiao Letian is the God of Killing to the Earth. He can't even afford to offend the court. Let's go back and beg the master."

The master family mentioned by the grain merchants were actually the high nobles of the Qing Dynasty. These princes and princes not only consumed a lot of flag pay every year, but also had countless land farms and big deals in the city.

It can be said that the monopoly businesses that make money in Sijiu City are basically their shadow. Why are grain merchants not afraid of the court and wantonly too high the grain price? The key is that they have the support of the master behind them.

But at this time, all the grain merchants were stunned. The master's family was helpless in the face of Xiao Letian. More and more new troops gathered in the capital. They now dared not even let go of anything.

"Grandma, the court is only thinking about spending money to send this plague god away. You still want me to provoke Xiao Letian. Get out of here. Anyway, the losses will be borne by your shopkeeper. Whoever asked you to stock up on Xiao Letian's food, you dare to touch his things."

"You have taken advantage of Xiao Letian. You want money but don't live."

Yes, most people cannot take advantage of Xiao Letian's cheapness. The price of rice at 60 liters per liter is not the bottom line at all. As the new overseas rice was shipped to the capital the next day, the price of rice instantly collapsed to 50 liters, which had reached the price before the palace transformation.

As the news of the capital stabilizing rice prices spread to all directions, the fleeing capital people began to return to Sijiucheng, and it was not used for two days. The prosperity of the capital was restored by Xiao Letian.

People returned to the streets, shops began to resume business, and rice prices were stable, prices were all stable. After the disaster, the people began to make big purchases, and business became prosperous in an instant.

50 articles, 45 articles, 43 articles, 41 articles... Three days later, the price of rice in the capital miraculously stabilized at the 40 articles, and the whole court was stunned.

"The prosperous era of Qianlong is here again. How could this rice price return to the price during the Qianlong period? Xiao Letian is really the God of Wealth." All officials were mourning and reviewing, and Xiao Letian's methods could only prove that they were all a group of incompetent waste.

This is the relationship between vision. The big businessmen who look around the world have such a courage. The rice in Nanyang is ripe three times a year, and the price is unimaginable. Although the taste is slightly worse, who cares about the poor?

Some people may think that the cost of trafficking in millions of miles must be very high, but in fact it is not. Water transportation has been less efficient than land transportation since ancient times. This is why China excavated the Grand Canal.

The efficiency of sea freight is higher than that of river freight. The tonnage of sea ships was already very large in the mid-19th century. Ships carrying more than 100,000 tons were already very popular, and the safety of sea freight is far beyond the previous one.

This is a force that the Qing Dynasty could not imagine. Countless Chinese goods were taken abroad by sea ships, and they were exchanged for ships of grain. Xiao Letian wanted to destroy the grain prices in the capital at the lowest cost, and he didn't care whether those grain merchants would go bankrupt.

Anyway, Xiao Letian didn't want to stay in the capital forever. He was destined to lead his troops away from here. He wanted to leave an unforgettable impression on the people of the capital. The proverb that the Prime Minister has a meal is destined to be passed down for thousands of years.

Xiao Letian knew very well that with the skills of the Qing Dynasty, as long as he withdrew from the capital, the grain price would not be able to maintain such a low level at all. At that time, the rice price of 40 liters per liter will be doubled and risen.

There are also grain merchants raised by princes and nobles who will definitely make up for their losses after sending Xiao Letian away. The trend of fried rice will rise sharply, and it is not enough for the people to enjoy the benefits in the past few months to vomit back.

People compare people and people have to die, and goods have to be thrown away. Whether Xiao Letian is good or not depends on comparison to achieve the result. The incompetence of the Qing Dynasty and Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea loves the people as much as his son. The people cannot see it. As one rises and the other falls, the people will naturally make the right choice.

Facts proved Xiao Letian's judgment. Just over four months after Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea evacuated Beijing, the capital began to rush into a grain shortage. Without the support of overseas grain, the land price of 40 liters per liter of rice could not be maintained. In just one month, the rice price of the capital rose to 95 liters per liter, and the people were in a miserable way.

No one wants to listen to the court's explanation, and the grass-roots people don't consider the difference between overseas rice and Qing rice. People only have a simple truth, they have food to eat with the prime minister and go hungry with the court.

This is Xiao Letian's decisive killing against the Qing Dynasty. No matter how powerful the weapon is, it is more effective. After the overseas rice incident, the reputation of the Qing court was completely smashed to the bottom.

Food is just one of Xiao Letian's weapons for the people. Three days later, in a place called Jinyu Pond in southern Beijing, Xiao Letian suddenly appeared in front of the people with his personal soldiers. The people who were deeply favored by the 40-liter big rice immediately rushed to the streets to cheer and cheer.

"The Prime Minister, Duke and Hou Wan Dai... have food to eat with the Prime Minister... The Prime Minister, Duke and Hou Wan Dai..." As long as there are those who start in the crowd, thousands of people will cheer together.

However, today Xiao Letian did not send food. He only had a ditch in his eyes, which was the famous Longxue Groove in later generations.

Longxugou originates from Hufang Bridge, passes through Tianqiao, Jinyu Pond, and Red Bridge to the moat outside Yongding Gate, and runs across the southeast of the outer city of Beijing. According to research, this small river Longxugou in the Ming Dynasty already existed in the Ming Dynasty, but it did not have a name at that time.

It was not until the middle of the Qing Dynasty that the river was named Longxugou. However, due to the decrease in water volume, the clear river gradually accumulated in the Ming Dynasty and became a famous stinky ditch in the southern city.

The environment is not good, so naturally the rich people are unwilling to live there. With the years of war, refugees gathering here slowly becomes a large slum where people live in poverty.

This is the true form of Longxugou in Lao She's writing. After the founding of New China, the Beijing Municipal Government spent a lot of effort to transform and clean up garbage to build a river. In his previous life, Xiao Letian had never seen the true face of this river.

Now, the real Longxugou in history is emitting a stench in front of him. Even though Xiao Letian was mentally prepared, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

"Is this still a place for people to live?" There was no river flowing in the continuous stinky ditch. The garbage floated on the water and emitted a foul smell. The bodies of dead cats and dogs were floating in the garbage dump, and even dead babies were hiding inside.

There are dirt roads on both sides of the river, and no one has laid bricks and stones here. There are mud ponds after heavy rain everywhere. The surrounding shacks are short and messy. The black and thin people are dragging their dirty braids. The children look at the Xinjun with admiration with their fingers in their mouths.

If there is really hell in this world, then you can definitely get a number here.

"Friends... Today I, Xiao Letian, came here not to give everyone food. What I have to do is something you dare not think about. From today on, I will turn Longxugou into a paradise..."

"Tell me my order and start the action..." Xiao Letian roared, and the left and right corner of Longxugou immediately became chaotic.

The new army held a bayonet rifle and escorted a group of dejected Eight Banners soldiers, who were holding shovels, wicker baskets and other tools in their hands.

After the Eight Banners soldiers passed by, there were groups of green camp soldiers in the capital. They also held various tools in their hands and came to both sides of Longxugou under the escort of the new army.

When Xiao Letian saw that the staff were almost here, he shouted, "Fill the soil and build a dam, intercept the river... Within a month, I will see a clean Longxue Gully... Not only that, the whole city of Beijing was cleaned."

All the people were in a big uproar. They never expected that Prime Minister Xiao of Donghai would have cleaned the whole city after he released the second order of food. Why are there such strange officials underground?

But no matter what, Xiao Letian's order was still unconditionally executed. The captives of the Qing army who had resisted the new army turned into engineers at this moment and began to deodorize the whole city.

Longxugou was cut off from the river. As the water level gradually dropped, the soldiers began to clear the river. Baskets of stinky mud and garbage were piled onto the carriage and transported outside the city. This was the best fertilizer for the landlords outside the city rushing to get it.

There were also streets and alleys, and countless soldiers began to clean the mud on the street with shovels and brooms. All the people were stunned.

"Oh my God, the soldiers are sweeping the streets. What exactly is the Prime Minister trying to do? Wait... Look, there is actually a layer of stone slabs in our alley streets."

That's right, in the eyes of the people, the silt for two hundred years was shoveled away, revealing the stone road paved in the Ming Dynasty. Only then did the people know that the original Beijing city was not dirty, and there would be no situation in which there was sunny days, soil on the ground, and mud on the ground on the rainy days.

In the imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty, the streets and alleys of Beijing were actually covered with stone roads and drainage ditches. However, during the hundreds of years of the Qing Dynasty rule, dust covered the original historical traces, and people have forgotten the long history.

"What exactly is the Prime Minister trying to do? Why do you spend energy doing such a pleasing thing?" At that moment, even ordinary citizens didn't understand Xiao Letian anymore, and everyone thought he was showing off.

But Xiao Letian knew very well what he wanted. Since the Qing Dynasty gave the people a dirty life, Xiao Letian would give the citizens of Beijing the cleanest world today.

The Qing Dynasty will give you hunger, and I, Xiao Letian, will give you food and clothing.

The Qing Dynasty gave you ugly things, and I, Xiao Letian, gave you heroic looks.

The Qing Dynasty will give you dirty things, and I, Xiao Letian, are willing to give you the cleanest world.

After all, Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea is good? People's hearts are a scale, and the most fair scale. From now on, as long as the people of the Qing Dynasty mentioned the three words Xiao Letian, then the three labels of food and clothing, cleanliness and handsomeness appear in their minds.
