Three days later, Chen Fuzun readily agreed to Zhang County Zun's request and agreed to introduce grain merchants according to Zhang County Magistrate's list.
Most of these grain merchants were businessmen in the capital, who were strong and had no shortage of grain. After the grain store affairs were settled, these grain merchants signed a contract with the Jiangdu County Government, promising to sell grain at market prices, no matter what happened.
, Grain prices should not increase by more than 50% within a month. If the increase exceeds 50%, it must be discussed with the government, and prices cannot be increased without permission.
This is tantamount to fundamentally solving the food price problem in Jiangdu.
Of course, it has to be said that although this contract seems very useful, if there is a big disaster or chaos, and it is a seller's market, this contract signed with the government will be useless.
It will become bullshit and it will have no effect at all.
But anyway, this engagement letter is very beautiful.
At the very least, when the Jiangdu government reported this matter to the court, both the government and the county government were in trouble.
As for what effect this contract will have and whether there will be any hidden dangers in the future, Chen Fuzun can only serve for four years at most. Zhang Xianzun may not be satisfied with his three-year term. At most, he can only work in Jiangdu for three years.
What will happen in the future have to do with them?
Anyway, now that the capital is satisfied with the distribution of interests in Jiangdu, the two local officials of Jiangdu City can also give an explanation to the court on the matter of Jiangdu grain merchants. There is a new grain merchant in Jiangdu City, and the price of grain is very fast.
will come down, people’s livelihood is stable, and the best of all three is available, why not?
Of course, whether it is court affairs or government affairs, they have nothing to do with Mr. Shen now. They are things that he can't reach even if he puts his head out.
What Shen Yi can do now is to concentrate on preparing for the exams, to welcome the Jiangdu County Examination and the Prefectural Examination in the fifth year of Hongde, and then go to Jiankang Jingcheng to participate in the college examination and get the title of scholar.
Obtaining the title of scholar means that you have an identity and have the qualifications to be examined as a candidate and to be admitted as a Jinshi.
Even if he does not continue to take the exams, his status as a scholar will make it much easier for him in Jiangdu. He does not have to shrink from Fan Dongcheng like he is now.
Speaking of Fan Dongcheng.
After the news about Shen Yi sending Miss Lu back last time spread in Ganquan Academy, Fan Dongcheng, who had not been back to the academy for a long time, made a special trip back to Ganquan Academy to cause trouble for Shen Yi, but Shen was not at Mr. Qin's place now.
Endorsement, even if he was writing policy papers from Dean Lu, Fan Dongcheng did not find an opportunity to attack Shen Yi.
Because of Fan Dongcheng's threat, Shen Yi stayed honest in the academy for a while and did not wander around the city again.
After all, he is powerless now. If Fan Dongcheng sends people to block him somewhere and beat him up, he really has no way to deal with it.
On this day, Shen Yi had just completed the homework given by Lu Anshi and was listening to Master Lu's "discipline" in Dean Lu's study. Shen Yi was still very attentive to Lu Anshi's teachings.
You must know that this Mr. Lu was a serious Jinshi. He was a very famous Confucian throughout Jiangdu and even Jiangzuo. Among the famous families in Jiangzuo, there were countless wealthy families who wanted to worship their descendants.
Although Shen Yi did not officially become a disciple after entering Mr. Lu's apprenticeship, he could often take Lu Anshi's courses for free, which was very rare.
A master of Jinshi, teaching you step by step!
It is no exaggeration to say that this is almost the most top-notch educational resource in this era, and no school district housing in future generations can compare with it!
Lu Anshi patiently pointed out some errors and omissions in Shen Yi's policy and the areas that needed improvement, and then annotated them one by one with a brush. After finishing the annotation, Old Man Lu looked at Shen Yi and said slowly: "Your current policy is better than before. You are much more experienced. According to the current level, as long as you don't make any fatal mistakes or taboos during the county examination, you should be a child and pass the county examination, and there should be no problem."
"but…"
Lu Anshi looked at Shen Yi and said slowly: "But no one can be completely sure about the exam, and I can't say that you can pass the county exam 100% of the time."
Master Lu handed the annotated policy papers in front of Shen Yi and said, "If you have nothing to do, write more policy papers. It will be useful for both the county examination and the subsequent government and college examinations."
Shen Yi bowed his head respectfully to accept the instruction, and sincerely said to Old Man Lu, "Thank you for your teaching, sir."
He glanced at Lu Anshi and said with a smile: "Nowadays, students have no merit and fame, so it is not easy to embarrass the teacher. When one day I pass the provincial examination, I will shamelessly join the teacher and become his disciple."
Lu Anshi looked at Shen Yi and did not express his position immediately. Instead, he said: "When you are successful in the examination, you can come to the academy to find me again."
Shen Yi put his strategy "simulation paper" in his sleeve, then looked at Lu Anshi with a smile, and said: "Sir, the students have already taken care of the things you told the students before."
Master Lu frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
"Sir, have you forgotten?"
Shen Yi reminded: "You were worried that Junior Sister Lu would be deceived by Fan Dongcheng. You asked me to think of a way to prevent Junior Sister Lu from getting close to Fan Dongcheng."
Shen Yi winked and said, "Now that the students have taken care of things for you, Junior Sister Lu will never fall in love with Fan Dongcheng again."
"It's no use if Fan Dongcheng moves all the rouge shops in Jiangdu."
During this period of time, although Shen Yi did not go to Jiangducheng very much or date Miss Lu, he occasionally made some fresh food or some novel gadgets and gave them to him in his school building. To Miss Lu.
Now, although the two of them have not reached the point where they are in love with each other, they are at least close friends.
During the contact process, Shen Yi would intentionally or unintentionally bring up Chen Qing's affairs.
In the Chen Qing case, Fan Dongcheng was the absolute mastermind. At this time, Miss Lu's disgust for Fan Dongcheng was almost full.
Mr. Lu and his daughter lived in the same courtyard, and he could more or less feel the changes in Miss Lu. After hearing Shen Yi's words, he also knew that Shen Yi was not lying. The Jiangzuo scholar closed the opened book. , looked at Shen Yi and said calmly: "When you mention this matter, is there anything you want me to do?"
"Don't dare."
Shen Yi shook his head quickly, smiled at Lu Anshi, and then said with a smile: "Sir, it's like this, the student has a younger brother at home."
Shen Qilang coughed and whispered: "The student and he have been dependent on each other since childhood, and they were quite reluctant to part with each other after they were separated. It just so happened that he had a good foundation in studying in a private school, so the student wanted him to come to the academy to study..."
Master Lu frowned and looked at Shen Yi.
Shen Qilang had a serious face, raised three fingers, and said: "My brother is far smarter than his students. He has been determined to learn since he was a child. He will definitely not lose the face of the academy!"
Lu Anshi lowered his eyebrows and focused his gaze on the book in front of him.
"What's his name and how old is he?"
"Shen Heng, I am twelve years old this year."
Shen Yi looked at Dean Lu cautiously, feeling a little uneasy, worried that Master Lu would not give him this back door.
"Sir, you..."
Master Lu flipped through the book and spoke slowly.
"Then bring it to the academy to have a look in two days, and then take it to your teacher, Mr. Qin."
Having said this, Lu Anshi raised his head and glanced at Shen Yi.
"But the academy's requirement is to be proficient in reading the classics. If he wants to enroll, he has to pass the academy's examination."
Shen Yi was overjoyed and saluted Lu Anshi.
"Of course, I would like to thank you sir on behalf of my brother-in-law!"
