Chapter 432 Thunder Means (2)

The eldest son of the Huo family, as the representative of the Huo family, also came to attend the meeting. He sneered at everyone's reaction, laughing at these people who still couldn't see the situation clearly.

Pingyang City is the prince's fiefdom. The prince has kept his low profile over the years, and everyone thinks he is easy to bully. After this time, I hope these people don't regret it.

Silence can delay things? What a naive idea.

"Since I don't say anything, I will assume that you agree." Zhao Jingyun only wants an excuse, and there is no need for everyone's consent. Whether or not you agree will be decided tomorrow.

"Our Huo family business has been holding on, and the price of grain has not increased. The ninth brother and his disciples have already gone to other places to purchase grain, and they should be able to return to Pingyang City soon." No one said anything, and the eldest son of the Huo family was finally the first to speak.

Zhao Jingyun smiled and nodded, with a very gentle attitude, "The Huo family has done a good job. I know that you don't have much food in your hands."

A simple sentence shows that he has been paying attention to the situation of various shops.

Everyone continued to remain silent, and some even glanced at the eldest son of the Huo family with sarcastic and disgusting eyes. Obviously, they were dissatisfied with the Huo family's rise.

What the eldest son of the Huo family expressed was his attitude, and he would not take the rest seriously at all.

"Although the Xie family does not have a grain shop, there is still some grain stored in the farm, and they are willing to sell it to the prince for emergency treatment." Xie Cheng, as a representative of the Xie family, also expressed his attitude.

"The Shen family has no grain shop, and there are still grain stored in the farm. I am willing to provide the prince with an affordable emergency."

"There are still food stored in Leijiazhuang, and I am willing to provide the prince with an affordable price."

.........

With the Huo family and the Xie family speaking out, many noble families have come forward to express their support for Zhao Jingyun, including some merchant families.

The other remaining people secretly looked at the Cui family, Xue family and Fu family and other big-name families. Seeing that no one said anything, they pretended to be stupid with an attitude.

Humph, the items are in their hands, and they only need to bite them to death, and there is no goods in their hands. Could it be that Zhao Jingyun will even arrest them all?

They did not break the law, nor did they rebel, and Zhao Jingyun could not use his power to suppress others.

When they were fools, all the people who stood up were Zhao Jingyun's confidants, or those who depended on the Xie family or the Huo family.

Especially the military officers, it is a joke. The military officers rarely do business at their families. How long can they last with the grain produced by the farm? Without the grain merchants coming forward, Pingyang City would not be able to stabilize.

Some people wish that Pingyang City would be in chaos, and then they took the opportunity to demand increased treatment and find benefits from it.

"Everyone is righteous and considering the people, I thank you here." Zhao Jingyun bowed and thanked him.

The merchant who made his statement quickly stood up and returned the gift.

"Prince, it's not that we don't want to..." The Xue family still wanted to speak.

The Fu family hesitated a little, not thinking about its own interests enough, so they hesitated for a while but still didn't say anything.

"What I want is the result, not to listen to your complaints or complain." Zhao Jingyun interrupted him without hesitation. Xue Han's face froze when he interrupted him.

Zhao Jingyun actually gave him his face directly? He had already given up a daughter and made concessions. Zhao Jingyun was not satisfied? Why did King Jingyue really think that the Xue family dare not go against him?

Xue Han, who lost face, became more angry the more he thought about it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Zhao Jingyun was too reckless and was simply a reckless man, not as clever and smooth as the legendary.

The part that was unwilling to express his opinion could only continue to remain silent. Fortunately, although Zhao Jingyun's face was not good, he did not make too embarrassed for them.

Zhao Jingyun was in a bad mood, of course he would not leave guests for dinner. The eldest son of the Huo family and Xie Qi were delayed until the end and said a few words to Zhao Jingyun.

"Xue Xiangrong disappeared from the capital." The eldest son of the Huo family felt a little embarrassed.

Xie Zhen is generally in charge of the pursuit order, but Xie Zhen is unwilling to chase Xue Xiangrong. Huo Jiuchen couldn't swallow this and took the initiative to take the matter to himself. Who would have thought that in the end, a weak woman would escape. It was simply incredible. Of course, the Huo family would have no face when they said it.

Xie Qi and Xie Zhen were different. He glanced at the eldest son of the Huo family with sympathy and helped to smooth things over. "Xue Han is an old fox, and his daughter is simply a poisonous snake. You can't treat her as an ordinary woman."

The Xie family and the Huo family are both acquaintances. After Lin Qingqian and others left, they came out from the back of the screen. She looked at Zhao Jingyun in surprise, "Didn't the prince send someone to stare at her?"

Zhao Jingyun frowned slightly, and he was also careless about this matter. "When I returned to the capital, I withdrew the people. After we returned, Derong might have withdrew the people."

Lin Qingqian could understand Zhao Jingyun. The capital is under the emperor's feet and there is not enough manpower. In addition, she is not in the capital, so I thought that Xue Xiangrong, a weak woman, could not make big waves.

Even Lin Qingqian himself did not expect that when Xue Xiangrong seemed to be destined to fight with the official wife for the rest of her life in the inner house, she hid without knowing it, and gave them a living person to disappear.

Lin Qingqian did not take Xue Xiangrong to heart. Xue Xiangrong had harmed her, and Zhao Jingyun helped her take revenge. It was tragic enough for a woman to fall to that level. So in her opinion, both sides were barely considered to be clear.

Now, she knew that she was still too kind and simple. Seeing that she didn't see, Xue Xiangrong wanted to make a big reversal for her.

Lin Qingqian had a vague idea in his mind: Xue Xiangrong will face her in the future.

Seeing that her face was not good-looking, Zhao Jingyun thought she was afraid of worrying, so he immediately lowered his voice to coax her, "Don't worry, with this king here, she can't make waves."

Lin Qingqian nodded randomly, thinking about where Xue Xiangrong would go.

Zhao Jingyun turned his head and ordered Xie Qi and the eldest son of the Huo family, "Pushing Xue Xiangrong's affairs back, as long as she is alive, she will show up so that Huo Jiucen does not have to compete with her. The most urgent task is to do what I have told you."

"From the departure time, we will arrive in Pingyang at the earliest five days, and at the latest seven or eight days." The eldest son of the Huo family replied after calculating the time.

Zhao Jingyun smiled, "Time is just right, let's do it tomorrow, there is no need to be ruthless. Those who resist will be killed on the spot."

Kill? Even the eldest son of the Huo family and Xie Qi were shocked when they heard this.

"Prince, where is the capital?" The eldest son of the Huo family asked hesitantly.

"If you find an excuse to kill, can you still depend on their faces and do things. Don't worry, the court doesn't care about me." Zhao Jingyun answered casually.

The eldest son of the Huo family looked at each other and agreed loudly, "Listen to the prince's orders."

"I have stayed in the village these two days, some other village." Zhao Jingyun took Lin Qingqian's hand and instructed, "The storm will pass soon."

Seeing that he was worried about him, Lin Qingqian comforted him, "There are troops guarding outside the village, and the villagers work together. There are still people at home. I don't worry, so don't be too nervous, the prince."

"Okay." Zhao Jingyun looked at her with a smile. As long as he saw the smile on Lin Qingqian's face, he would feel much better.

On the evening of that day, Zhao Jingyun stayed directly in the village and specially recruited two officials to keep an eye on the villagers. All villagers were not allowed to leave the village in the past few days.

The two of them saw that he looked serious and knew that things might be bigger. The two looked at each other and promised to be optimistic about the villagers in their village.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan couldn't help but worry that the children from the two villages would be worried. If someone really had no intention of coming to the village to cause trouble, the children would be a problem. Thinking of this, all the children also put various "weapons" to practice martial arts while class.

The atmosphere in the two villages was tense, but the same was true in Pingyang City.

As the Huo family's granary was empty, it became more difficult for the people in the city to buy food. Everyone's dissatisfaction had reached its peak.

"Dangdang", after the Chen hour, the drums in the yamen in the city suddenly rang, and then the yamen runners took to the streets to post notices in the most lively places.

The literate person hurried over and read, "Don't keep it a secret, read it to everyone."

The illiterate person urged the scholar to quickly talk about the situation.

"Good news, good news." The person who understood the notice clapped his thigh and explained, "The prince and the government worked together, willing to take out the money to purchase grain from large households and grain shops at a fair price, and then sell it to the people at a fair price. No shop shall raise the two at will, nor shall they be allowed to store grain privately, otherwise they will be severely punished."

"Is it really a decree issued by the prince?" Someone immediately asked.

"Yes, do you see the seal below? This is the seal of the prince, and the other is the seal of the government."

It was a good thing that fell from the sky. The onlookers almost knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of the royal palace.

Cheers were everywhere on the streets, and people who passed by whom they didn't understand rushed forward to ask, so the news was quickly passed down layer by layer.

Many people immediately went to the grain shop to wait for the distribution of food.

The Huo family is engaged in grain business, but the Huo family's grain shop has always sold grain at a fair price, and there is indeed no inventory. The people simply look for other homes.

The first thing to express is the military general's family. Most of these families do not have food stores, so they simply put food at their doorsteps.

When the people heard that these grains were reserved in various farms, they were all very grateful.

Then, some merchants' shops were operating normally, and the prices were as usual. When the people saw this, they felt that the laws issued by King Jingyue were not fake, and everyone's hearts were relaxed a lot.

Of course, there are many people who commit crimes against the wind. Only a part of the shops on the street were opened, and the rest were all closed. Even the shops that used to raise prices closed.

"Mr. Xue, what should we do if they release food?" The deceased nobles and merchants gathered together. In order not to be eye-catching, they traveled on the lake and discussed on the boat.

"They don't do grain business. After the grain is put out, what tricks can Zhao Jingyun have? Moreover, we are not just doing grain business. Without oil, cloth and other items, how long can they last? To put it unpleasantly, without the maintenance of the people like us, King Jingyue could not be able to move in Pingyang City." Xue Han replied sneered.

The Fu family looked at him and felt very upset. He did not dare to underestimate Zhao Jingyun, but the land reclamation order did threaten the interests of their Fu family, so he was in a group with everyone. Otherwise, he would not look down on Xue Han's character.
