In fact, this was the case. When the carriage entered the city, the people in the grain guild already knew about it.
A blow to the head made everyone stupid. No one cared about the people buying food on the street anymore. They were all stunned by this wave of horse-drawn carriages.
Playing? How else to play? With the money they finally collected, they may not be able to buy the current grain reserves, let alone the carriage that keeps delivering grains...
"President, I would like to come up with an idea!"
Make an idea? What idea? What idea?
He didn't even raise his head, just covering his face and feeling worried.
Then, the one by the door slipped away first.
It is no longer reliable. This guild is hopeless and unreliable. But you still have to take care of your own business.
It's no use wasting it here!
So, I quietly withdrew, and I had to go home quickly, go back to the shop, and lower the price of food first, and I’ll take whatever I can get back.
It’s all old school. With the current food prices, everyone knows that they won’t be able to hold on for long, and they might collapse at some point.
So...~
"Dear Sirs, Your Highness, a grain store has put up a sign saying forty cents per dou..."
Sigh... It's over, no more fun. Before anything happened, I was already lying down.
"Let the carriage go back and stop wandering around."
These rail carriages just left the city again without putting down a grain of food.
Following and paying attention to the crowds watching the fun, I just went back.
There is no shortage of food in Bianliang City, and the food brought in has been brought back...
And as the carriage left the city, a large number of people, riding horses and driving donkeys, or sitting in old-fashioned carriages, all headed towards the west gate...
The track... His Highness the Crown Prince's track is complete!
Jingzhao Prefecture, Hebei Province, does not have rail carriages, but those who joined the transportation team earlier have already prepared all the necessary materials for a transportation team.
The story of Bianliang City was played out in three places at the same time. Even the dialogues were almost the same, let alone the results.
The grain merchants have suffered retribution, the landowners have suffered retribution... This is the most common understanding in the three drought-stricken areas.
Zhao Zhen wanted to hold a banquet again, but the husband-in-laws did not come to the public house and spent the whole day in the market with Xi'er.
Looking for someone else? Forget it, if you don’t tell me if you don’t know, I’m afraid most people will want to cry, so they won’t rub salt into the wound.
Go back, go back to the inner garden.
This whole day, from being on tenterhooks at the beginning to feeling comfortable at the end... It would be nice to live this life if this happens every day.
This time, not only did he enrich the East Palace, the Sixth Lao family, several of his husbands, but also the imperial court.
The people will not be harmed, but will benefit. As an emperor, I really hope that this kind of thing will happen every day.
My son... I have nothing to say!
Presumably at this time, Xi'er should go back to Ciming Palace to pay her respects...
"Daban, go to Ciming Palace..."
It was rare for old Chen Lin to smile with her teeth bared on her always sullen face.
It is indeed something worth celebrating.
Before entering Ciming Palace, I heard laughter inside, and... there was a special fragrance...
"Daban, what does it smell like?"
"Wine, it should be wine."
"Is there such a mellow wine in the world?"
"With His Royal Highness, anything is possible!"
Daban said that with Xi'er, everything is possible.
Last time in Xinyang, Zhao Xi made some wine for Di Qing's back carbuncle. It was originally left for Di Qing's family.
As a result, his family really regarded this as a miracle medicine, and even though it smelled delicious, no one dared to take a bite.
After all, many medicines are said to be taken with alcohol.
So, after he became an official, he brought him back and brought him to the guard camp.
Originally considering the issue of food, Zhao Xi never dared to open this layer of paper. Now, I didn't expect that Annan, this boy named Li Rizun, is really a person.
He said he wanted food, but he actually encouraged farming in Annan and sent rice to the imperial court.
After negotiating with Guangnan West Road, we came to the market...
What I didn't expect was that Annan's food supply was really endless.
Therefore, Zhao Xi reused the wine used to disinfect wounds...~
This is the first time I have taken it out to drink, and I am really happy. I think I should celebrate.
"Daddy..."
"Xi'er, this fragrance is..."
"Dad, this is the smell of alcohol. It's just...just..."
Alas! Dad has a family history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, the so-called wind disease. If he drinks too much...
"Is there something taboo about it?"
"Dad, there is a hereditary disease in our family, so we should not drink too much alcohol."
"Then daddy, please drink less."
The taste is mellow, and Zhao Zhen really wants to try it. He even cheats on his son.
If you hold a health education lecture here, no one will probably listen to it. It’s pointless.
I am indeed happy today, and my father's request does not disappoint him.
Besides, drinking a small amount of alcohol seems to be helpful in dilating blood vessels or something...
“Good wine!”
Can it be bad? What is the wine at this time? There is no degree or standard for the degree. The key is that the wine is still turbid.
As for Zhao Xi's wine, it can be regarded as a second-round distillation. It is a serious second-level wine.
Look at how greedy old Chen Lin is... she has always cooperated well, so just give her a drink!
"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward..."
Uh...Is it really a reward? It is a reward. His Royal Highness the Prince pours wine, what an honor is this?
Zhao Xi didn't feel this way, mainly because it was just a pot, and he was worried that he wouldn't know what to do, and he would be done with it in just three or two.
Zhao Xi has tasted it and found that the alcohol content is about 30 to 40 degrees, which is considered the most suitable level for drinking.
Even if you are a woman, this wine will not hurt you.
Whether it is the empress or the women in my family, they are all very good at this...
"Xi'er, this wine..."
"Back to dad, it was an unexpected gain. It was just that the food was wasted too much and the child was not born. Now... now food is no longer a worry, and it can be extended."
Indeed, food is no longer a worry. If this trajectory is extended...
Zhao Zhen can see the use of rails. Rails are not only used for transporting goods. They are more conducive to governance, whether it is the issuance of imperial edicts, the transfer of officials, and more importantly, the replacement of soldiers.
As well as the diligent transportation after the war...
"Xi'er, after this incident, can track laying be fully rolled out?"
"Back to dad, my original intention was that everything would be led by the imperial court, but after this incident, there may be many people who will follow suit. Moreover, the imperial court's financial resources are limited, and the forces of all parties are intertwined."
"It is better to liberalize authority, set conditions, and allow all parties to intervene in track laying."
"The imperial court only needs to plan the main line, master core technologies, and set track management requirements to solve the current situation of redundant troops."
"This creates a win-win situation in which soldiers serve as workers, scholar-bureaucrats serve as bosses, the court masters core technologies, and merchants enjoy convenience and contribute tax revenue."
It is impossible for rail transportation to replace today's shipping, but for the north, whether in the northwest such as Jingzhao, Qinfeng, Yanzhou, or Hebei Province, rail transportation will become popular.
Now Zhao Xi is not short of money, but he also knows that he cannot live alone.
If the East Palace, or even the imperial court, were used as the track, it would probably not even be possible to pass the planning in the imperial court.
If a certain amount of authority is released and more people are involved, the efficiency of passing through the court will be very high.
