Zhang Jingyi's emotions are very stable.

The time for the decisive battle is here.

In fact, Zhang Jingyi also became the focus of attention at this time.

Everyone hopes to find some information from Zhang Jingyi.

But to everyone's disappointment, Zhang Jingyi's behavior was very ordinary. As the county magistrate, he still inspected Qingpingfang and Tianqiaofang on time and on time.

Qingpingfang has now recruited many businesses and opened shops one by one.

However, most merchants have complaints.

Nowadays, the people have no money, and they spend high prices to buy grain. Therefore, except for the grain store that does not open very much, other transactions are very difficult.

Even if you have spare money and enough food and drink at home, you are scared by the unattainable food prices and would rather keep the money than buy other things easily.

When Zhang Jing appeared in the commercial area, people would inevitably complain.

Zhang Jingyi just smiled and didn't say much.

When facing merchants, officials still need to be arrogant.

Otherwise, they will not be shocked.

It is not beneficial for Zhang Jingyi to get together.

Of course, the civil servants in charge of investment can be more humble, but they must be separated by this level. Otherwise, they would not be able to grasp the right position.

This heavy rain actually exposed many problems, even Qingpingfang. The street managers held several meetings in succession and summarized new experiences, and planned to take advantage of the sunny day to make rectifications.

Of course, the most important thing now is Tianqiaofang. All the servants in Tianqiaofang have been replaced, and the people from Qingpingfang took over. Some were directly transferred to the street managers, while others were promoted by ordinary Qingpingfang civil servants.

Roads, sanitation, river dredging, and public security begin with these four aspects.

Fortunately, Xinxian took over here, the people from Shuntian Prefecture, Dongchang, and Wucheng Bingmasi were also tactful and would never appear in Tianqiaofang again.

Early in the morning every day, the lieutenants of the Jinyi wanted to have morning exercises. Under the leadership of Lu Xiangsheng, the lieutenants shouted and ran around Tianqiaofang and Qingpingfang.

People get up with the sound of this horn.

The sound that felt harsh at first and the rumbling sound of running were actually a little uncomfortable at first, but gradually, everyone got used to it.

What's amazing is that with the sound of training like this, the three religions and the various religions that had originally appeared in this Tianqiaofang disappeared in an instant.

People even joked that the training of trolls every morning, one, two, three, and four, has a good effect of suppressing evil spirits.

The most difficult period at present has not yet passed, so the street managers have counted the poor households in the street and alley and distributed some rations every day.

The food prices are too high, and ordinary people find it difficult, so the poor households can't live even more.

Fortunately, these streets and alleys have mastered the situation in the streets and alleys through various evaluations. Whoever has more labor and who has spare money knows it, and most of the poor can master it.

The county government proposed that no one is allowed to starve to death.

Therefore, I will try my best to get some old grains and miscellaneous grains every day.

In fact, this kind of grain is not much money to pay, but the effect it brings is amazing.

All those who have distributed rations must have signs in front of the door. On the one hand, it is to facilitate patrols in the county government and prevent fraud.

On the other hand, it is not a decent thing to throw this brand after all. Anyone who is slightly decent at home is embarrassed to discredit himself for one or two kilograms of old grains and miscellaneous grains a day.

The street managers probably did not favor personal gains. After all, they still have a future. They are no longer the minor officials who never turned over in the past. Moreover, the street managers are quite competitive. In order to compete for each other, they will inevitably hope that others can make some mistakes in the future county government office.

What's more, if people are starved to death in this new county, other jobs will be in vain.

This kind of punishment is very severe, almost ruining all the future, and all the bonuses in the entire streets are also cancelled.

As a result, a strange landscape appeared in the entire capital. Against the background of the skyrocketing food, Xinxian rarely had hunger.

On the other side, it is reported that it is terrible. There are even people from the Five City Military and Ma Si who collect corpses in the streets and alleys in the morning. Although they dare not say that the corpses are piled up like mountains, these scattered starving people still make people afraid.

Of course, most people are still numb.

After all, people starve to death... It is not particularly rare in the capital. Not to mention this year's disaster, even when it was peaceful in the past, the same thing happened often.

In ancient times, people were different from those in later generations. People in later generations rarely died of people around them. If they knew that there were sporadic deaths in their neighbors, they would think it was a huge thing.

At this time, it is more numb. Who hasn't survived the winter, who has died of illness, and who has starved to death, which will not affect too much emotion.

It was probably just a sigh, and he could only refuse to let him go to a good birth in his next life.

But the contrast in Xinxian is too strong.

In order to prevent and defend.

The county government even hung signs directly, and on strictly preventing hunger and creating a sign to overcome hunger and zero death.

It has now lasted for nine days, breaking the record for nine days.

As a result, the street managers were crazy, fearing that the record would be broken and appeared in their own streets. First, they surveyed the distribution of old grains and miscellaneous grains that could not afford to eat. Then, they went home one by one to check whether there were any fish that had missed the net, so as not to break the record on their own streets.

Xinxian seems to be creating a myth, which is very touching.

Even the entire capital seems to be paying attention to the phenomenon created by Xinxian.

This seems to be... In the past, people were used to starving to death, but Zhang Baihu told everyone that there was such a phenomenon in previous years, so is it reasonable?

As a result, the situation reversed and the previous reasonable phenomenon became unreasonable. The phenomenon of Xinxian not starving to death is reasonable.

Everything about Zhang Jingyi is as usual.

This made some people who had been observing Zhang Jing's behavior start to murmur.

All kinds of rumors began to fly all over the sky at this time.

So on that day, anxious grain merchants gathered in the chamber of commerce.

They gather more and more frequently.

On the surface, no one showed any expression, but in fact, it was already turbulent, and there was even a bit of anxiety on the faces of many people.

Amid the ups and downs, Chen Moyan also appeared in the guild at an unusual inappropriate time.

In fact, grain merchants are now looking forward to the appearance of these big grain merchants.

As soon as he saw that Chen Moyan had come, the atmosphere became lively again.

Chen Moyan came this time, but for the first time he didn't hide in the corner to drink tea.

Instead, he walked to the front desk.

Seeing this, the grain traders immediately became silent.

Chen Moyan glanced at everyone and sneered: "I heard that there are many rumors in the capital, saying that sweet potatoes can help disaster relief. You guys, this is simply a matter of nothing. It's just that some people are eager to make contributions and fool them with auspiciousness. Sweet potatoes are really good, but can this thing... alleviate the shortage of food this year? I think it's not entirely true, absurd!"

The grain merchants all nodded.

Chen Moyan said again: "Everyone is willing to let go. If you are worried, go to the market to see where there is still food? Without food, how can the price of food be reduced? I have been doing business for so many years and the price has risen and fallen. Do you still know in your heart?"

Wu Wenlong was one of the people mixed in this crowd. Looking at Chen Moyan, who was arrogant but confident in making remarks on the high platform, he felt a little calmer.

On that day, after drinking tea, the grain merchants said that the food prices were afraid that they would rise in the future, and that in Guanzhong... there would definitely be no grain.

Wu Wenlong breathed a sigh of relief again, and then he returned home with peace of mind.

As soon as he arrived at the mansion, his family came forward and said, "Master, Grandma Six is ​​angry."

Wu Wenlong frowned and said, "Why are she angry?"

"She said the master hadn't entered her room for many days."

Wu Wenlong said, "I understand, I understand."

As he said that, he did not go to the back house, but involuntarily went to the study room.

Sitting in the study, facing the green lamp, a handsome servant poured tea for Wu Wenlong. Wu Wenlong couldn't help but stroke his back with his hands, and a different kind of brilliance appeared in his eyes.

The Ding family said in a slight manner: "Master, please use tea."

"Well." Wu Wenlong returned to his usual temperament. He seemed to feel that there was something serious to do, so he waved his hand and said, "You go down."

After the family retreated and took a sip of tea, Wu Wenlong picked up his pen, spread out the paper, remembering things as usual, and wrote on the paper: "I have benefited a lot from hearing what Mr. Chen said. I have been in business for twenty years and have been used to watching the storm. For several days, I am still impatient. If I had not listened to Mr. Chen's words, I would have been at a loss. The price of grain has risen, and it is a hundred households in the Jinyiwei who can be manipulated. It's ridiculous, ridiculous..."

While writing, Wu Wenlong couldn't help laughing.

Confucianism emphasizes the three reflections on oneself. Although Wu Wenlong is a merchant, he is also well-influenced. At this time, he reflected on his impetuousness over the past few days. Finally, he took a deep breath and seemed to feel that there was nothing he had not finished writing. So he dipped in ink and picked up his pen and wrote five words behind him: "Nothing happens today."

I carefully read what I had just written, then I put down my pen, got up and went to the back house to rest.

During this sleep, Wu Wenlong slept very soundly. He dreamed that he had countless grains and easily exchanged a bucket of grain for several acres of land in Guanzhong, which was thousands of miles away. He dreamed that the hungry men were rushing to sell their children to him for a ration. When he took out a bucket of grain to buy someone else's wife and daughter, those people knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him hard, and she looked grateful.

In the sweet moment.

The dream is broken.

He was awakened by a rush of knocks on the door.
