And this situation is becoming more and more serious.

In the court, Emperor Wenyuan threw the Qin Zhe in his hand aside.

The heavy rain in Jiangning has been flooding half of the soon-to-be-ripening wheat fields. It is about to be harvested. In addition to the earlier harvest, there are also those that were recovered later, and the losses have exceeded most of the losses.

And other areas suffered a lot of losses, which may be the worst year since he succeeded to the throne.

"Father, the shops in the capital are already snatching food."

The prince frowned and said to Emperor Wenyuan that nearly half of the grain shop had closed. I don’t know if there was no grain to sell or if the grain prices would rise in the future.

There are never many people in this world who can do business, and there are many who make money through natural disasters.

Whether it is taking the opportunity to make a fortune or there is really no food to sell, it is not a good thing for the people.

Obviously, compared to having no grain to sell, he actually hopes that they really want to stock up on grain, just want to sell at a high price, just want to make more money.

At least there is still food, at least it is for the people to have food to buy, even if it is really expensive.

But fear is fear, no matter how much money you have, you can’t buy food.

Emperor Wenyuan stood up and walked in place. Then he stopped and walked to the prince.

"Your son, what can you do?"

The prince bowed to Emperor Wenyuan.

"The father can order those grain shops to limit the amount of grain to sell. In the name of household registration, each household will limit how much to buy every month. In this way, it will prevent the people from robbing grain, so that the price of grain will rise. At the same time, they must also count the grain in the grain warehouse to prepare for emergencies and open warehouses to release grain."

Emperor Wenyuan gently patted the prince's shoulder. The Sixu Academy taught him, which is indeed a qualified royal family. Whether it is the three people from the Shuo Palace or his prince, the growth is also gratifying. Of course, he can feel extremely at ease when he handed over the country to them.

"That's it."

Emperor Wenyuan withdrew his hand and sat at the table. He picked up the pen on one side and began to write the imperial edict.

All major grain shops in Beijing cannot raise the price of grain without permission, and they must be subject to household registration and limit households to buy grain.

In other words, even if you have money in the future, you will not be able to buy more food. Once this ban is issued, it will be the same in all parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It is also to avoid some people storing food and selling it at a high price. However, the above ban will undoubtedly make people even more panic.

I am afraid that there is no grain to sell in the grain shop, and I will have no rice to eat at that time.

If there is no food, it is equivalent to waiting for death. Especially those who have no grain harvest this year, they are barely living with the old grain from last year. However, in recent years, everyone has lived a good life, and it has been a good harvest for several years. In addition, there are things like snow vegetables that are easy to grow. Therefore, those with old grain will sell some when the new grain comes out, which not only exchanges some silver, but also makes room for the new grain.

But because of this, people who have no grain to put the pot without selling the old grain are also very glad that they have at least one portion of old grain. But it’s okay. If you borrow some today and I will borrow some tomorrow. No matter how much old grain is, I will not last long, and I will go hungry.

In this way, another month passed, and even in the capital, it was extremely difficult to buy grain at this time. Moreover, many grain shops now sell old noodles and old rice.

"Is the food in Xiangjue Temple good?"

Shen Qingci hugged Xiao Luobai and asked his two sons that they came out of Xiangjue Temple. These crystals were also traveling between the palace and the mansion. At such young age, a lot of burdens were also put on their shoulders.

The food at the foot of the mountain is extremely difficult to buy, but I wonder if the Xiangjue Temple is good?

"Don't worry, mom, Luo Yu poured a cup of tea for Shen Qingci, and put it in front of her."

The grain harvest in Xiangjue Temple was collected early, and the grain was not wet by the rain. As long as the grain was produced, it would be enough for the people in the temple to eat for about a year. What about it? The so-called grain shortage was also there.

"That's good," Shen Qingci was relieved, and at least he could worry less about one place.

Just don't starve that old monk to death.

Of course, she also felt that she was a little worried. The old monk was so smart that he really couldn't reach the point of no food. He was probably the same as her, and I don't know how much food he had stored in this secret?

"Yi'er, mom needs you to go out once."

Shen Qingci reached out and picked up the teacup on the table, then looked up at Luo Yuyi.

Luo Yuyi nodded, what is your mother's order?

"Yeah," Shen Qingci closed his eyes and calmed down for a few moments of his thoughts. This was the opening of his mouth.

"You will secretly pick up the grain accumulated in Changyu, Liucheng, and Xiangtun, three places in Yuchi, and secretly take it away from the path and send it to your grandfather."

"Does my mother worry about her grandfather?"

Luo Yuyi couldn't help but sit upright.

"Isn't the imperial court ready to pull out grain for border people?"

The food and grass in the border have always been from the court. Why, my mother now wants to transport grain there. The food accumulated in each warehouse of Yipinxiang is very large. They also know this, but now they want to take away this food. Is it because the court will not allocate grain?

"I'm afraid the court has too much time to take care of itself."

The longer Shen Qingci lived, the more she found that she lived more clearly. Of course, there were things in the Kingdom of Women, and she no longer liked to rely on others, but liked to be foolproof. From her previous life to her rebirth to this life, she has always been in front of Shen Qingci, but how she fucked her is the emperor's heart.

The rain has not stopped now, and it is already certain that this year there will be a shortage of food this year. The first one is not the people, but the soldiers. Although the world is peaceful now, there are countless conflicts in peace. The four countries are now in a very small-second situation. The Northern Qi has always been sanctioned by the Great Zhou, and the national strength is gradually weakening. Moreover, the one who is now in power is also a young emperor. The empress dowager will be in control of the government, and the internal worries cannot be solved, and we cannot conquer the country.

Bai Chu has always had a good relationship with the Great Zhou, and has been in the process of health preservation. Now it is time for the new and old emperors to change, so he will not be too sharp.

As for Cangtao, he has always been restless, and of course he is also moving around. He will stretch out his teeth and bite him back if he doesn't know what to do.
