Chapter 390 Price increase
! Fourth update!
Just now, after he was about to agree with the King of Yan, he said that the benevolence of the King of Yan is a blessing for the people!
Unexpectedly, Wu Zhi came to rescue disasters and did not play according to the routine.
It made him speechless for a moment.
Next, the magistrate continued: "What the adults are thinking is that these refugees come from county towns in other areas, or villagers in nearby suburban areas.
The snow disaster caused their family to be severed, so they came to seek shelter, but if they were let in, the number of people would easily lead to civil unrest!”
"If they are hungry and cause changes, the city will be unable to prevent them, and it will harm the people in the city!
Adults’ consideration is very correct!”
Wu Zhi nodded: "These refugees probably don't have much food to eat, and the weather is also cold, so the snow will only get colder in the future. I'm afraid these people can't stand this period!"
"The transportation of food is not convenient now! It is indeed difficult!"
Wu Zhi said: "But I come to rescue the disaster, and it is impossible to leave them alone. In this way, you organize the villagers and soldiers in the city to cut down trees outside the city and build a temporary refugee area as quickly as possible.
We also need to let the chefs in the city make porridge and give these refugees to the shed, add some clothes to keep the cold, and help them through this snow disaster as much as possible!"
Um?
Hearing this, the magistrate was stunned and then said, "Why didn't the lord of the emperor think of this method? Alas, the benevolence of the king of Yan is really a blessing for the people!"
The magistrate said what he hadn't said just now.
He thought the King of Yan would not care about it, but he knew that the King of Yan would still arrange them.
After receiving the order, the magistrate immediately prepared some clothes and hot porridge to set up the refugees.
The magistrate went to work, and Wu Song next to him said, "Brother, this magistrate, according to our investigation, is a very arrogant and ruthless person. In the past, he didn't care much about the people in the city. It was cold and the ground was cold. He would not be so kind to let the refugees outside come in! His previous proposal was probably against his will."
Wu Zhi's eyes flew towards the prefect in the snow below. At this moment, he was flying in the snow, and he smiled and asked the refugees to drink porridge.
Wu Zhi smiled and said, "These officials are nothing more than just for me to see! These refugees are insignificant in their eyes, but instead consume the food in the city. If I hadn't come, they wouldn't care!"
Wu Zhi shook his head, there was no way to do this kind of thing. There were many.
When they meet a kind-hearted official, they will take care of him, and when they meet someone who is too lazy to meddle in other people's business, they will not look at him, so that they can fend for themselves.
Wu Zhi was actually preparing to put them in, but it was not the best strategy.
It would be fine if one or two refugees were sent to the city. If hundreds of riots were caused, it would not be a trivial matter and could not be stopped.
They were wearing clothes of ordinary people, and they were messing around, and it would be troublesome to catch people at that time.
Unlike the two armies fighting, the clothes of the two sides are different in color, which is easy to distinguish.
Therefore, for the safety of the people in the city, it is most appropriate to do this outside the city.
After Wu Zhi's order was issued, many people began to mobilize.
There are many people and great power, so there is no big problem.
Those victims will not die immediately, as hot porridge and clothes are available, so they can survive in a short time.
At this time, the magistrate came up and said respectfully: "King Yan, everything is as you told me. But what else should Yan Yun do if there is any place?"
Since we already know that Wu Zhi came for the people, the magistrate naturally had to consider the issue from Wu Zhi's perspective.
If he follows himself, he will not bother to care about other places.
Wu Zhi: "I have mobilized grain from other places with surplus grains, and all places in Yanyun will deal with the victims outside the city in this way.
By the way, you should pay attention to the grain prices in Jinzhou. If someone raises the grain prices, you should report them in time. My king will also have to use these three guillotines!"
"The officials will pay attention!" The magistrate shivered when he heard the guillotine.
I will definitely get what King Yan told me.
He just needs to manage his territory well.
As for the others, Wu Zhi would ask officials under the Administration to let them do it. Not only Yanyun's territory, but also those in the Liao Kingdom where officials were taken over by Privy Council officials, Wu Zhi would ask them to do it.
In fact, similar orders had been sent when Wu Zhi set out, but they wanted to spread throughout the entire territory, with some delay.
Let them deal with it, Wu Zhi will review it at that time. If there is any problem, Wu Zhi will not let them go easily.
After the prefect left.
Wu Song: "Brother, the governor just now doesn't seem to be from the Government Affairs Department, right?"
Wu Zhi nodded: "No, Yan Yun still has a large territory. There are not so many people trained by the first batch of government affairs departments, so he can only take over some of them. However, the other government orders are based on my king. I believe they will not do anything randomly. If it doesn't work, they will be replaced by them at that time!"
"Including officials in the Government Affairs Department, if they fail to handle this matter well, or cause serious consequences, such as riots and starves a large number of people to death, these fully indicate that they are not qualified, I will remove them!"
Wu Zhi: "Since I have established the Government Affairs Department, every official has to do his duty. He has no ability and is not allowed to eat a corpse position and eat a meal!"
"What my brother said!"
Wu Song saw the confident smile on his brother's face, for some reason, but Wu Song felt as if in front of his brother, everything could be easily resolved.
Wu Zhi can be infected with a very strong self-confidence.
There is an inexplicable sense of security.
Fortunately, he is a man and Wu Zhi's younger brother. Otherwise, if he was a woman, it would be difficult to resist Wu Zhi's temperament!
Wu Zhi has a general understanding of the situation in Jinzhou now.
At this moment, the snow disaster caused many industries to close down, which seemed very cold and could no longer operate, but the business in the grain store was surprisingly good.
Wu Zhi is here, and the food price has not changed, so Wu Zhi is also ready to leave.
Wu Zhi stayed for two days and saw the orderly development of the city outside and inside, so he went to other places.
After Wu Zhi left.
It's only a few days.
Jinzhou.
This morning.
On the streets of Jinzhou South District, there is a Yangji Grain Store, which is the leading large grain store in the city.
People in the city want to buy food, and business here is much more popular than before.
Although some officials in the city distributed some porridge, it was not enough for the people in the city.
After all, they are not victims, unlike those who have been wandering around outside the city.
If you have two dollars in your hand, you naturally need to reserve a little.
Alas, I said I didn’t eat anything in this winter, so I was really hungry and cold.
Many people lamented that in one, the food prices seemed to have risen.
It has reached the point of one dou of rice and two taels of silver.
But there are quite a lot of people buying it.
Money is not as good as food for the most part in the face of disasters. So there is even a phenomenon of buying at this time.
It’s easy to spend money to buy this, so take your time in line, but some poor households have no money and rice, and they are about to go hungry after eating, so there is a phenomenon of not spending money to grab rice on the spot.
Such a person will be arrested and beaten by several shop friends when they rush in.
They are not the opponents of these people.
now.
A fat man in the street, Manager Yang.
He walked over from a distance in a furry outfit.
He still felt cold when he put his hands in his sleeves. The shoes he was wearing were very thick. Although they were cold, this outfit was much warmer than that of ordinary people.
When Manager Yang saw so many people queuing up in the street, he walked in with a smile on his lips.
A guy next to him immediately said respectfully: "You are here, shopkeeper!"
“The business is so good today!”
"It's only morning, and someone is queuing up to buy rice!"
The shopkeeper nodded after hearing this: "The more people buy, the more we make!"
The guy smiled and said, "Don't worry, shopkeeper, there are so many people in the morning. If it's noon, I'm afraid I can be lined up outside the city!"
It is impossible to line up outside the city, but it is enough to show that they are very confident and the hot spots are.
At this moment, when Manager Yang saw so many people queuing up, he frowned: "Rise the price of grain to two or three."
The guy nodded: "It should have risen long ago! If it were the case, it would have risen to three liang before, but the shopkeeper, the King of Yan came to our Jinzhou before, so... "
Manager Yang shook his head and said coldly: "When King Yan is here, it will not rise. What are you afraid of when people leave? We have already established a relationship. King Yan is just here to act. People may not come back after they leave. If we don't make money, wouldn't it be in vain?"
Guy: "The shopkeeper is right, then raise the price!"
The guy shouted and immediately told the new price.
The people who were preparing to buy rice were all confused.
"Aren't you two liang just now? Why are you two liang three now?"
"Yes, two taels are already very expensive! Now the price is rising again?"
Some people who had just lined up to buy food shouted.
As the news of the price increase was just heard, the people queuing behind were even more troubled. They cursed, saying that the merchants had some illegitimate ethics, some were also illegitimate, and some were also damn. In short, they were very irritable.
