Chapter 141: The Blessed One(1/2)
After hearing Wei Xuanzhen's question, Huang Chenggong looked happy: "Owner, of course, he really sold it. Can the student still cheat you?"
He seemed to praise me and praise me.
After all... the delivery of so much land took a lot of time, and because Wei Xuanzhen was not here, the land sale required Wei Xuanzhen's son and several clan elders to come together before the transaction could be traded!
Huang Chenggong felt that all this was thanks to his matchmaking skills. He earned so much money for the Wei family in one day. This is a great achievement.
But who knew that as soon as Huang Chenggong's words fell, Wei Xuanzhen suddenly became furious, clenched her fists and punched Huang Chenggong's face, and said angrily: "Beast, are you going to kill me?"
This punch made Huang Chenggong's eyes dark blue!
He covered his eyes and wailed: "Official master, Official master...what is wrong with you, Official master..."
Wei Xuanzhen roared: "It's over, it's over. Hurry up, go to Yaxing immediately, go to Yaxing."
The owner of the East City Yashang found something incredible.
The land that was originally hung here, which was unpopular, suddenly became in short supply.
In fact, there is not much land hanging here.
After all, the Chen family directly acquired the land in Erpigou, and the aristocratic families who owned a large amount of land had already sold large amounts of land to the Chen family.
There were only those ordinary people who were suffering, and they had some land at home. When the land fell, they hung three or five acres of scattered scattered in the shop.
After all... the aristocratic people are queuing up to sell land themselves. You are an ordinary citizen, but you dare to be ahead of them?
But most of these lands are ignored.
But now...it seems different.
First, someone rushed over and asked how much land there was and how much land there was, and how much land it was, they bought it.
The situation changed too quickly. The boss was a little confused this week, but he hurriedly contacted the seller to come to Yashang to trade with the buyer.
Unfortunately, the seller came excitedly. When he saw that the buyer was not the same, but was actually a crowd of people who wanted to trade with him.
At this time, the sellers are not stupid. So many of you want to buy it, but you still want to have a low price?
So, people began to rush to bid.
But the more they bid, the more the seller still had no interest in selling.
No one is a fool. Although ordinary people have no knowledge, they suddenly find that their land is very popular and they are still selling land at this time. Aren’t they a fool?
Even if someone offered a high price of 80% per acre, the higher the price, the more the seller felt that there was something conspiracy. He used to jump off a building and sold it, but now it seemed that the other party wanted to take advantage of him.
I stopped selling and immediately withdrew the brand.
“…”
That Ya Xing also felt like he had hit a ghost.
They relied on transactions to get commissions. The land price plummeted before and no one bought land. If this transaction cannot be completed, they will naturally lose money and make a profit.
Now suddenly, people are coming to buy land, but the seller stops selling it, and it seems... there is no transaction volume again.
It turns out that you guys who do business are teasing me?
The whole of Chang'an... was filled with a strange atmosphere.
People suddenly discovered that there were a lot of copper coins on the market.
All the money saved in the warehouse of the aristocratic family was like running out, desperately buying everything that could be purchased.
Whether it is land, cloth, iron, materials and land prices have begun to rise continuously, and prices have begun to rise wildly.
If you don’t spend money on it, you’ll be done. God knows how much copper coins in your hand will be worth tomorrow? Keeping them in your hand means constant depreciation, and everyone is not stupid.
Therefore...when prices and assets start to soar, it becomes even more and more frustrating!
Look, that's right, I just said that the money is not worth much, so why don't you continue to buy it quickly.
The whole few months in Chang'an have been like a roller coaster.
The third uncle found Chen Zhengtai excitedly: "Zhengtai, it's amazing, it's amazing. The land price has risen to ten cents today. Our Chen family made three times the profits between reselling. Not only that, there are also cloths. The cloths have increased by 10% and the grains have increased less, but there are signs of rising, and there are also..."
Chen Zhengtai's reaction was very calm, and he obviously had expected this.
The market is irrational, and the fundamental reason is that people are irrational.
Once a person becomes unreasonable, any strange thing can happen.
Chen Zhengtai said calmly: "This is just the beginning, but..."
He paused, glanced at his third uncle, and was amused: "If this continues, I am afraid that people's livelihood will be difficult. Can the people still live in this hot money on the market speculate on all supplies?"
The third uncle frowned: "Please take care of our Chen family first, let's talk about it when we get rich."
Chen Zhengtai said seriously: "If you have wealth, you have to keep it first. If you can't, what's the use of keeping this wealth? My teacher trusts me, Chen Zhengtai. If you continue to let everyone make endless troubles like this, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos. So... I have to do a complete set of things, and I must not give up halfway. Next... I have to take action on His Royal Highness the Prince. If the market cannot stabilize, I will have ten heads and I will not be enough to cut."
As Chen Zhengtai said, he hurriedly found the prince.
Li Chengqian didn't expect that... the outside was already in chaos.
The aristocratic races have too much money.
After all, hundreds of years of wealth, people were unwilling to spend money before, which caused terrible deflation. Now everyone is using money to buy any materials. Although the prices of land and materials are rising, everyone knows that if this continues, there will be a big mess.
Just two days after the Chen copper smelting method appeared, many prices had doubled, and they were in a state of supply and demand. If this continues, Chen Zhengtai might be ruined.
At least... Wei Zheng had already begun to impeach Chen Zhengtai, and then many censors made suggestions.
Two days ago, Li Shimin was still happy, but now he is a little confused!
Looking at the secret memorial sent by Baiqi, he became worried for a moment: "Chen Zhengtai did say that it would cause some inflation, but I never expected that the matter would be so serious. Wei Qing's family said bluntly in the memorial that people are in panic now, and even a large number of merchants have begun to stock up on goods.
Li Shimin frowned deeply.
Now it seems to have it, and there is money, but... this happened again.
"What is Chen Zhengtai doing?"
"I heard that I went to the Eastern Palace early this morning, like I had something to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince... Is there anything I have to do with me... I heard... I heard..." Zhang Qian hesitated, wondering if he should continue talking.
Looking at Zhang Qian's desire to speak but stop, Li Shimin said, "You can say nothing."
Zhang Qiandao: "I heard that the prince and Chen Zhengtai were looking for Taoists and monks everywhere, saying that they wanted to do rituals."
"Job ritual?" Li Shimin was stunned!
At this critical moment, these two guys didn’t quickly find ways to maintain the stability of the market and actually went to do rituals? Can the world be stable by doing rituals?
However, Li Shimin seemed to have forgotten that a few days ago, Empress Changsun was unwell and he also engaged in feudal superstitious activities.
Zhang Qian said tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want a slave to urge you..."
"Forget it." Li Shimin shook his head: "If you urge me, it will seem that I am harsh. This matter cannot be done by the prince and Chen Zhengtai. Let the Fang Qing family and the ministers of various ministries try their best to calm prices."
Then, Li Shimin said, "Call Fang Qing's family."
…………
Erpigou was indeed doing rituals, and invited people from nearby Taoist temples and Buddhist temples.
It seemed that Chen Zhengtai felt that this ritual was not enough. Not only did he invite monks and Taoists, but he also invited all the sorcerers on the street.
These vast people have arrived one after another. They are happy to serve His Highness the Crown Prince and the recently popular Chen County Duke. After all,... Chen County Duke has money, and the incense and incense oil he will give will definitely be a lot of money.
As for each other, you worship Buddha and I follow the Tao, but now you are together, you won’t feel embarrassed. As they have experienced such things, they will be able to recite their own sutras.
Master Xuanjing of Ci'en Temple looked compassionate and was taken to Li Chengqian and Chen Zhengtai. He first proclaimed the Buddha's name and then said, "I dare to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Duke Chen Jun, what is the matter for this ritual? I brought thirty-seven monks from the temple to come and ask for questions. In this way, we are ready."
"This is it." Li Chengqian said, suddenly feeling strange!
Yes, what do we do in rituals?
Li Chengqian was directly asked Chen Zhengtai on the spot: "Senior Brother, what are our rituals doing?"
Chen Zhengtai said on the side: "I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it after I think about it."
Li Chengqian: “…”
Master Xuanjing: “…”
Fortunately, Master Xuanjing is also a knowledgeable person. He smiled and said, "Master Chen is not a joke, right?"
"Of course not." Chen Zhengtai lowered his face and said, "I'm like a joker? It's so outrageous. Come on, Chen Fu and the monks have worked hard to come here. They will give their respective temples and Taoist temples and first give them five hundred stagnants of money. When they came to Erpigou, they just like when they came to their own home. They must take care of all the vegetarian dishes they used. In short, they can't treat them unfairly."
Before we even started doing rituals, we started to reward money.
But Chen Zhengtai was still unsatisfied: "Hey, look at me and you will know that talking about money is too vulgar. It made the monk laugh at it. I think these five hundred stalemates are really not enough to the eyes of the master. When the ritual is completed, add some sesame oil and give it a thousand or eight hundred. It's nothing."
For Master Xuanjing, this was a lot of money, enough to shape a golden body for the Bodhisattva in the temple. He hurriedly said, "The donor is so kind and generous, how dare I laugh at me, and I can't even admire him."
"Okay, okay, gather people first. I want to hear everyone's opinions and discuss what kind of ritual is better to do. Otherwise... let's do a ritual to pray for a child. How about my daughter Chen Zhengtai's daughter?
Li Chengqian suddenly widened his eyes and said with a grin: "You haven't gotten married yet."
Chen Zhengtai seemed to suddenly remember this and said regretfully: "That's the case, then I wish my mentor to have a son soon?"
Li Chengqian's eyes widened even wider, and he wanted to strangle him to death immediately.
Master Xuanjing was still smiling. He felt that this Duke Chen seemed to have some brain problems.
