"It doesn't need to be solved at all. This kind of thing is enough for those who buy grain in the city to buy it in the place. Besides, I don't believe that Qingxu's merchants did not discover this business opportunity. My price for the supply and marketing cooperative is 150, and I will not change it even if I die. But other merchants sell it for 80 yuan, so I won't stop it." Chen Xi said indifferently. He just strangled Cai Mao's group of Southeast Asian rogue grain merchants, and did not strangle normal grain merchants.

The price of 70 to 80 min per stone is acceptable in Chen Xi's opinion, and is a relatively reasonable price. Combined with the 150 min per stone collected by Chen Xi's own treasury, the average selling price of the people is about 115 to 120 min, which is suitable.

This is also the reason why Chen Xi must strangle Cai Mao's group of Southeast Asian rogue grain merchants to death. If these bastards also enter the grain market, the real grain price may be washed away to 30 min per stone.

If it really reduces to this level, it will be fatal. This means that many rural and agricultural needs produced by Chen Xi cannot be purchased by the agricultural population. Once this happens, it means that the current healthy circulation system has been exploded.

On the contrary, the current market and national comprehensive grain prices between 115 and 120 papers are very suitable in Chen Xi's opinion, because the decline in grain prices is certain. His spiritual talent, the good varieties of cookies, scientific cultivation in the Agricultural College, and the lightning fertilizer of Wang's family in Kuaiji are all the basis for ensuring high yields, and grain prices will inevitably fall.

However, after strangling Cai Mao and his group of hooligans, the market's grain prices fell to 70 cents and it should not fall any further. This price not only considers the rural population to obtain survival supplies from the land, but also considers the urban population and other non-agricultural populations to eat.

In fact, this level is really a situation after government subsidies. Even if the pure grain output does not reach the level of working, it is enough to eat and leave a small amount of expenses.

If the land output alone is higher than working, how can Chen Xi have a scissor gap? In industrialization, there must be some gaps in order to absorb the agricultural population into the industrial system.

Of course, if the official subsidy of 150 cents per stone is cancelled, the market is fully opened, and the market competition is allowed to directly increase the grain price to 30 to 40 cents, the agricultural people will quickly realize that farming cannot move towards a better life. In addition, industrialization has brought about a wide range of new materials that have emerged in front of the people, and land output cannot supply such consumption at all...

There is no way, a good life is right in front of you, but it is impossible for you to farm. It will inevitably force the agricultural population to turn to work, the industry will further expand, and the price of output materials will be further reduced, and finally a dynamic balance will be achieved...

In theory, this is also a solution, but Chen Xi really can't do this. As a first-mover country and as a country that talks about human feelings and concerns, there is really no need to do this.

You should know that when the first time in history when the incident of low grains and low farmers was actually injured, the Tang Dynasty, as a feudal dynasty, chose not to continue to open up the market and allow the price of grain to fall, but to choose the state pallet, the government collected money, and forcibly increased the price of grain by 30%.

That's right, in the feudal dynasty, it was impossible to have a real incident of low-grain and low-grained farmer injury, but it actually happened.

In the 25th year of Kaiyuan in the Tang Dynasty, the grain prices in Qilu area fell to a dou of three cents. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang officially dropped the price of grain to a dou of three cents. The fact that the people who farmed only had food and had no money to buy other things was moved to the court for discussion.

In fact, it is not really just eating and having no money to buy anything else. To be precise, according to historical records, "the country is rich and solid, rice buckets are priced at thirteen. Green, and the Qi family only has three cents of silk, two hundred yuan. The roads are lined with wine and food to wait for pedestrians. There are post donkeys in the store, and they travel thousands of miles without holding a ruler." In fact, the farmer is not so miserable that he is outrageous...

Although the price of a piece of silk is indeed low to the historical bottom line, the most expensive price of a dou of rice and a dou of thirteen coins per dou refers to the price of Luoyang, the eastern capital. You can compare the price of grain and other materials, what do farmer thinks?

As for the road, I have to wait for pedestrians with wine and food, and a bucket of rice costs 3 cents per bucket, while a bucket of rice in the Tang Dynasty is about 12.5 kilograms now. If I can only eat rice, it will be a waste to eat it. It is not worth selling it. If I stock up, it will not only take up space, but it will also be bad. Just make friends.

It was precisely because of this situation that Emperor Xuanzong of Tang reduced the price of grain to such a drop. The problem of people's food was solved and he had to pursue some other idea to move it to the court. The solution was very simple and crude, which was the way Chen Xi used it now, and the official directly collected the grain.

Don’t ask me whether the food I received can be eaten up. Anyway, the price of grain has dropped so much. People cannot just eat food and have to eat something else. The official price will increase the price to collect the food. First, collect it for me at the level of tens of millions. Then I will talk about it after collecting it.

What is arrogance? This is arrogance.

Chen Xi’s thinking logic is the same. I will not be as good as the official Datang in the future?

The brainless Xuanzong could forcefully raise the price of grain so that the people could have spare money, but I still couldn't do it? Unable to avoid this situation in the future. I directly checked the approximate level of grain prices from the beginning so that the agricultural people could work hard and leave a level of about ten thousand yuan without any disease or anything.

"In other words, there is actually no problem." Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi and asked.

"No, this means that the processing of agricultural and sideline products in Yanzhou can be promoted in Qingxu, because the people have surplus grain and surplus money on hand, so they can create additional value for the grain." Chen Xi said seriously, and this is what he is waiting for.

These days, no, no, no, not only these days, but even in later generations, the scale of the food industry is one of the very few super-large markets that can reach more than one trillion yuan.

The main reason is that the entry threshold for this thing is relatively low, with large demand and high universality. As for the unprofitable profits and other things, it is the most important thing to support people.

"I didn't understand it, and I didn't even know whether the current price was good or bad. It was completely beyond my understanding. I wanted to lower the price of grain to a cheaper and more convenient level for the people living in towns, but also wanted to increase the price of grain and make rural people more money." Liu Bei was already confused at this time because he really couldn't understand this.

More importantly, this thing is not a one-size-fits-all approach. If your grain price is high, the number of people engaged in industries in urban areas is a problem. If your grain price is low, the consumption of local agricultural people has become a new problem. In short, it is all problems.

"Ha? This thing is hard to explain." Chen Xi was silent for a while.

The few things that are most unmovable in this world include food prices. Even if it rises and falls, there will be many problems. The correlation effect will even bring about overall economic turmoil. Therefore, Chen Xi took the turbulent era and regarded himself as a blind man after a one-size-fits-all approach.

Because this thing is a few things that Chen Xi needs to make a lot of calculations and research when moving, it is better to let it go and keep it in a relatively healthy self-flow. As for being completely healthy, to be honest, Chen Xi doesn't even have a historical reference.

What is the price of a completely healthy historical grain, and what kind of social system and humanistic care the detailed regulations used are all subject to, these need to be considered. Therefore, from the very beginning, Chen Xi's grain price was a one-size-fits-all result in the last period of the turbulent era.

Anyway, the times were already very bad at that time. I, Chen Zichuan, pinched a result with my finger. Even if the results obtained from the best grain price calculation formula of this era are far from the results, it is definitely better than the strange grain price that I didn't know how it happened before.

This is also why food is a semi-official and semi-market model, because Chen Xi doesn’t know what price he sets is in line with this era. It will definitely not work if it is high. If it is low, it is a real exploitation. Although exploitation is inevitable of the times, at least some humanistic care must be retained.

So much so that the grain price policy used by Chen Xi is close to the quarantine warehouse of the ancestor Sang Hongyang. The advantage of this policy is that as long as the country's money can keep up, inhaling grain in a bumper year and releasing grain in a wasteland year, the grain price can be maintained at a relatively healthy level.

Of course, the difference between Chen Xi and Sang Hongyang is that as long as their reputation can keep up, the grain prices will be generally healthy, but this refers to the normal situation.

The abnormal situation refers to the fact that Chen Xi preset official grain prices are now dead, because the grain circulating in the market and the grain purchased by the people from other channels are basically lower than Chen Xi preset grain prices.

Even if Sang Hongyang faces this situation where I collect grain for 150 pm and buy 70 pm in the market, there is no good idea, unless the official has no limit on eating grain, but this is actually unrealistic. Chen Xi collects grain not to stock up, but to resist risks and create more profits.

The real grain prices in the market are already so low, and the country still collects them like this. That can only be said that this is agricultural subsidy. Too large-scale grain collection cannot be converted into profits, and official subsidies cannot be maintained. This kind of thing that concerns people's livelihood must be maintained.

Just like the pensions in later generations, everyone thinks that pensions must collapse, but the government's indicators are that when the market is operated, they cannot lose anyway.

This is completely incompatible with the market economic system. Yes, not only does it completely in line with the laws of the market economic system, but more importantly, this thing really doesn't lose.

Even when the Chinese government has mastered a trillion-level plate of 80% pension, this thing can still grow year by year in the normal operation of the market economy.

In 2020, I produced 15.84% of my own profits, and even since I entered the market, I have maintained an average annual growth rate of 8.51% every year...

Do you think this is an economic problem? You are wrong. At the root of this, it is not an economic problem, but a real social and political and social stability issue.

Similarly, in terms of grain prices, Chen Xi was not considering price increases and price reductions from the beginning.

It is your own business for you to sell it at a low price in the market, but as long as the market grain price is not higher than 150 ci, the official will always receive half of the land output of 150 ci. As for whether this policy is perfectly in line with the current best grain price, Chen Xi can only say that it is nothing to do with you!

What Chen Xi wants is to stabilize and activate the food price. Unless Chen Xi can come up with a more reasonable and correct price, he will never activate it.

"Is it difficult to explain clearly?" Liu Bei nodded, and then took a look at it. Chen Xi sighed when he saw this. It is rare that Liu Bei would be interested in Chen Xi's administration. Usually, when he learned the previous sentence, Liu Bei ignored it and let Chen Xi deal with it.

"Okay, okay, let me count my pot, let me explain, Xuande Gong, let me talk about your thoughts first." Chen Xi sighed and said. He knew that his grain price was not the best solution at present, but the best solution was too difficult. Chen Xi just gave a suitable solution.

"Why not fully open up the storage of the government warehouse?" Liu Bei asked the most core point directly, which was something Zhuge Liang thought Chen Xi would do.

Chen Xi thought about it and wondered whether to explain to Liu Bei the industrial structure that he couldn't understand, or to briefly explain to Liu Bei the impact of grain prices. Liu Bei could understand the latter, so Chen Xi decided to choose the latter because the latter was not very useless.

"Because the full opening of the government warehouse to store, there is no seventy cents of grain on the market. Agricultural people will sell all non-self-use grains to the official for 150 cents, and all the low-priced grains circulating on the market are gone." Chen Xi explained very simply, and Liu Bei nodded.

"In other words, this kind of behavior will hurt the people who do not grow food. People who do not farm should only account for 6%. You will give this data to me." Liu Bei thought about it and expressed his understanding, but then he thought of another thing.

"Does Xuande Gong believe that these 6% of full-time workers should spend more money?" Chen Xi said with a smile. Although there are fewer people, the population of this 6% also affects millions.

"No, what I mean is why don't I directly collect grain for 150 yuan and sell it to the people who need to sell grain for 70 yuan?" Liu Bei asked a deafening question directly, "Zichuan shouldn't care about such a little money."

"Let's stop for a while." Chen Xi suddenly raised his hand and looked at Liu Bei and asked.

"What's wrong?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi in confusion and asked.

"I'm a little puzzled by this." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei calmly.

"What problem will make you confused." Liu Bei asked with a smile.

"What do I look like in your eyes?" Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei with suspicion.

"Cough cough cough." Liu Bei laughed dryly, but when he saw Chen Xi staring at him, he didn't smile anymore, and explained, "It's probably an internal affairs issue. Everything can be solved, it depends on whether you want it or not."

"Do you know how much it takes to provide only these 6% of people with these low-priced food every year?" Chen Xi asked with a calm expression.

Liu Bei shook his head and Chen Xi said, "I have calculated roughly. It costs about 3 billion. Of course, these 3 billion is not a problem. The problem is that the people will sell unlimited grain. The official releases 70 documents for grain and collects 150 documents for grain. This price inversion will be very fatal."

"In fact, let alone 3 billion, even 30 billion is not a problem. Xuande Gong, our Han Dynasty's actual arable land area is 800 million mu. Including issues such as rotation farming and the quality of the land, after all, not all the grain production land is produced in every place. The annual yield per mu is calculated based on 3 stones. I have to spend about 150 billion yuan on harvesting grain every year." Chen Xi looked at the distance calmly.

As for Liu Bei, he was shocked at this time, and he spent 150 billion yuan on the harvest, and it was still every year. How could this be possible? However, after Liu Bei calculated it a little with mathematical calculations, he knew that Chen Xi was not a joke, but that he really spent so much.

"I have never heard you mention this money before, this?" Liu Bei felt that he was blown up. He had never even heard of such a large amount of money.

"Because this money can only be used to collect grain, just like Wu'an Jun spreading money in Manxianglou every day. This money can only be used to collect grain, and it can't be used in other aspects." Chen Xi said with a calm expression.

Primary grain processing, grain finishing processing, animal husbandry, grain and oil processing, grain starch, various non-staple foods, etc. Like grain, these consumption is a big deal, but these links require human resources, can accommodate workers, and more importantly, can generate profits.

Chen Xi's annual investment of about 150 billion yuan depends entirely on the output of these things. After all, it is 150 billion yuan of grain, of which 30 billion is used as a reserve warehouse in various places, and grain worth hundreds of billions is used to produce various agricultural and sideline products.

After completing the upstream and downstream linkage, the goods worth about 160 billion can be produced, of which 140 billion will be used for the purchase of grain in the coming year, and the remaining 20 billion will be used to pay wages, welfare, and all kinds of messy things. This will be enough.

This is also the reason why Chen Xi could not find out if the agricultural grain in Yanzhou was cut out by tens of billions, because the plate was too big, and how to say the profits of the food processing industry, whether it was high or low, but it could not stand the plate being super invincible.

This is a very few super markets that can withstand more than one trillion yuan of funds, while Chen Xi's plate is only 150 billion. According to Chen Xi's estimate, the current level of the Han Dynasty can withstand a plate of 400 billion to 600 billion. Of course, Chen Xi does not expect that much, and half of Chen Xi is very satisfied with this.

Therefore, the food processing industry still has a lot of room for development. This is also the reason why Chen Xi dared to brag 50 billion plates for major families in the second five years. It can be built for local townships. If the major families can share 50 billion goods, Chen Xi can get 100 billion...

This is also the reason why Chen Xi dared to collect grain at this price, because the food processing industry can convert the food consumed by them into other products that are urgently needed.

"That is to say, it will take at least 300 billion?" Liu Bei said with a twitching corner of his mouth, "And it's still every year?"
