Chapter 142: Your Majesty is overjoyed(1/2)

Li Qiyuan felt his angina pectoris.

As soon as others collapsed, the Li family was already in chaos.

Wu Wenlong looked at all this in a daze.

After someone finally rescued Li Qiyuan, Li Qiyuan opened his eyes tiredly and said, "Wu Wenlong, where is Wu Wenlong?"

So Wu Wenlong hurried forward.

Li Qiyuan felt his heart ached again, and he tried hard to say, "Find out a way...sell grain...sell grain..."

"Yes." Wu Wenlong hurriedly said, "I'll go now."

Things like Wu Wenlong happened overnight in countless mansions.

But at this time, Emperor Tianqi in Xiyuan was also very annoyed.

In fact, the real decline of grain prices was after the palace gate was closed.

In the past two days, Emperor Tianqi felt that he had no intention of doing anything.

He was still thinking about the price of grain in his heart. The sweet potatoes shocked him and suddenly realized that he had great potential as the emperor.

But the troubles at the moment still make him feel sad.

Looking at the countless refugees, Emperor Tianqi did not sleep all night yesterday.

Can't sleep, to distract yourself.

He held his pen and did only one thing, which was to draw the topographic map of Zhangjiazhuangzi that he had written in his mind!

Then... he continued to draw on the pictures based on the soil quality data he had personally measured.

I have to say that Emperor Aoki is simply a genius about this kind of thing.

Although there was no so-called structural mechanics in this era, the Emperor Aoki, who had rich experience in large-scale engineering, actually had a prototype in his mind with his rich experience.

Where to excavate, how to layout after excavation, what needs to be arranged inside, whether it is ventilation, drainage, or even where to ensure dryness, it gradually gained a bottom.

So, I began to try to draw the drawings.

Of course, Emperor Aoki was still restless.

During dinner, Wei Zhongxian came to serve him.

Emperor Tianqi ate a roasted sweet potato, burped, then looked up at Wei Zhongxian and said, "What, is there any news?"

"Is your Majesty asking about the price of food?"

"yes."

Wei Zhongxian smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty... there is no movement outside now."

There is no movement to mean... There is no report yet, and there is no report, which means that the food is still high.

Emperor Tianqi frowned: "You said, can the price of this grain be reduced?"

Wei Zhongxian thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, I think... it's not easy. The grain merchants have purchased all the grains, and this year it's really short of food, so I think..."

"Can't you drop down?"

"I don't dare to be a guarantee either." Wei Zhongxian said: "I can't tell you that Brother Zhang, are you really interested?"

At this time, he called out Brother Zhang.

Face?

What is face?

With this sweet potato, whenever His Majesty has a breath, he will be remembered by Zhang Jingyi's contribution.

Emperor Tianqi heard Wei Zhongxian's words and became worried: "These people... deserve to die."

"Yes." Wei Zhongxian said: "I sent someone to investigate thoroughly. There are many people involved in this food, many of them..."

He stopped talking about this, and he seemed very taboo.

The meaning is self-evident... Unless Your Majesty asks us to have the privilege of eliminating Donglin, and we kill our individuals, there will be a little hope of solving this matter.

Of course, Emperor Tianqi knew that he could not do this, after all... someone would have to work.

After killing Donglin, at least those who depend on Wei Zhongxian work, but this time... I am afraid that there are many people from the eunuch party who control the food price behind them. Are you planning to kill all the officials and nobles?

Not to mention, there are still countless royal relatives involved in it.

These people...

Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but think about it carefully, so he said worriedly: "Zhang Jing and his enemies are enemies of these people. I'm afraid that many people will hate him. Not to mention whether he can accomplish this, but this matter... I don't know how many people will offend this matter. Wei Fan, since you are brothers and brothers, you should watch over each other and help each other. I will tell you directly. If something happens to him, I will not look for others, and I will ask you first."

Wei Zhongxian: “…”

Wei Zhongxian was speechless.

But the situation is better than the human being, so he can't show any reluctance, so...

He immediately said happily: "I obey the order."

Emperor Tianqi sighed again: "It's really difficult to reduce the price of grain. I'm helpless. Can I just rely on Zhang Jing and a hundred households? I should plan ahead and think of a solution. You have ideas on weekdays, but do you have any new ideas?"

Wei Zhongxian said in embarrassment: "It's not that I can't help but just throw myself into a rat."

This means that he really has no way.

When Emperor Aoki heard this, he became more and more melancholy.

But at this moment, a eunuch suddenly came hurriedly and said from a distance: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

When Emperor Tianqi heard this, he frowned. The damn eunuch seemed to have completely ignored the rules in the palace.

The eunuch came in panting.

Emperor Tianqi was in a bad mood at this time, so he shouted loudly: "What?"

The eunuch lay on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... is so happy, so happy... the food... the price has dropped."

It's falling...

First of all, I thought I had heard it wrong, it was Wei Zhongxian.

How is this possible? It’s as stable as Mount Tai during the day!

What's more... how can the grain price fall just by saying it falls?

At least Wei Zhongxian is a mirror-like person. Many people who manipulate food prices have extremely noble identities. If they are one or two of them, Wei Zhongxian may not take them seriously. But if these people are together, their identity and status are even for Wei Zhongxian, who is nine thousand years old.

Will they allow a decline?

So Wei Zhongxian immediately said, "Is the news true?"

The eunuch said, "It's true. At first, the news was obtained, but I was afraid it was fake news, so the Dongchang side repeatedly confirmed it several times before he dared to enter the palace to report the good news. The price of grain did fall, from sixteen taels of silver, just before the servants came, it had fallen to fourteen taels."

Sixteen taels fell to fourteen taels. Although the food price was still unattainable for the people, the trend still made the chins of the Emperor Tianqi and the slaves of the Lord and Slave of the Heavenly Qi fall off.

"Where are any troubles outside?"

"No...it's just that the price of grain has begun to fall for no reason. Now many people have started to sell grain on the market."

Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but be overjoyed and immediately asked: "Where is Zhang Jingyi, what are Zhang Jingyi's actions today?"

"Nothing was done. Today, Zhang Baihu went to patrol Tianqiaofang. After noon, he routinely convened civil and military officials from Xinxian and held a meeting, saying that he was... emphasizing that he would not relax his health work."

Emperor Apocalypse: “…”

At once……

It's so down.

Emperor Tianqi said excitedly, "What's going on? Will it fall tomorrow? Oh... I'm getting more and more excited. Quickly, hurry up, send a note out and tell the factory guards to find out again. If there is any news, I'll report it immediately. I'll wait for the news here."

Wei Zhongxian was already confused at this time. Did those grain merchants take the wrong medicine?

Is this Zhang Jingyi's work?

But it doesn't look like it.

Just as hesitated, Emperor Tianqi said excitedly: "Tonight, I will wait in this Western Garden and continue to bring my drawings. I want to continue drawings. Be careful and don't get dirty."

Wei Zhongxian was hurriedly laughing.

That night, Emperor Aoki was sleepless.

He is like all young people who love to stay up all night, the more night he gets, the more his eyes can shine.

At night, Emperor Aoki, full of worries, only hoped for dawn.

Finally, the dawn of the morning was revealed, and he was looking forward to some new news.

Until dawn, another eunuch came hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty, Li Qianhu from the East Factory has reported."

Emperor Tianqi hurriedly said, "What's the matter?"

"The grain price has fallen sharply again, even more severe than yesterday's decline. Early this morning, eleven taels of silver was reached. There are rumors that it will fall below ten taels today."

At this time... Emperor Apocalypse truly believed in the fact of the decline.
To be continued...
