Chapter 402: Food Prices Plummet
"If the official has no time, forget it."
Ju Huan lowered his head again with a disappointed look on his face.
"I'm not flawless, but I'm so excited!"
Seeing that Ju Huan was very resentful, Jiang Chen raised Ju Huan's chin with a deep face and sipped gently: "I was thinking just now, should I teach Huan'er to learn all night and not go to court tomorrow!"
"Why is it so exaggerated? Is it true that officials regard me as a big insect that can eat people?"
Ju Huan immediately turned worries into joy, expectation and nervousness, and couldn't help but bite her red lips shyly.
"Of course! After a monk who has attained enlightenment will warn his disciples the first thing he does, that a beautiful woman is a tiger, and you must avoid it if you encounter it! There are songs to prove it!"
Jiang Chen nodded seriously, looked at Ju Huan's convex and charming figure, and had already made the decision to devour the tiger with his body and let his descendants go. This was not considered as not keeping his promise.
"The officials have made up randomly, why have I never heard of it?"
While Ju Huan spoke, he looked at Xun'er and Ping'er uncertainly.
"I haven't heard of it before!"
Xun'er and Ping'er shook their heads with a smile on their faces. As long as Jiang Chen and Ju Huan were in the same room, they would become maids in the same room and would no longer have to worry about future events.
"I don't believe it, right? OK, when I sing it, I will have to beat you up with a butt, as you will doubt me!"
While looking at the three girls with malicious intentions, Jiang Chen sang, "The little monk went down the mountain to Huazhai. The old monk told me: The woman at the foot of the mountain is a tiger. If you meet her, you must avoid it!
After walking through villages and villages, the little monk thought to himself, why does a tiger not eat people and look quite cute?
The old monk quietly sued his apprentice, such a tiger is the most powerful, the little monk was so scared that he ran away quickly, Master... Bad, the tiger has entered my heart~ I come to my heart!"
Puff—
“Hahaha…”
"So, it turns out that there is such a song?"
Ju Huan and Xun'er, Ping'er's three daughters were laughing so hard that they were almost breathless.
"Of course, now I know I haven't lie to you anymore, right?
In order to give you a long memory in the future, serve your family rules!”
Slap sex-
Jiang Chen slapped the three girls lightly and heavily, then ran out with a laugh.
"Ah, you are a sir..."
Ju Huan and the two beautiful maids were so embarrassed that their pretty faces dripped from blood. After looking around nervously, they lifted up their skirts and chased Jiang Chen.
While laughing and making fun, the three girls and Jiang Chen came to the main hall.
Zhang Yueniang was discussing Liu Mingyue's marriage with Aunt Liu Si. Seeing this, she couldn't help but ask, "Oh, what's wrong with Sister Huan and the others?"
"Madam, he...he sings to arrange me!"
Ju Huan walked up to Zhang Yueniang's arm with a close look on his face, and then hummed the distorted song that Jiang Chen had just sung, but he did not mention a word about Jiang Chen coming from Li Shishi.
"It's true that people are being arranged. How can a monk who has mastered the Tao sing such a song?"
Zhang Yueniang and Liu Minghui and the girls couldn't help but cover their mouths and rolled their eyes at Jiang Chen.
"The world is unpredictable, and a monk who has attained enlightenment can't help but feel involuntarily! For example, Xu Zhu's father, the tiger arhat, has he made a mistake and a result of eternal regret?"
Jiang Chen shook his head with emotion.
"What kind of tiger-suffering Arhat?"
"Did he compile this song? Son-in-law, tell us! We love to listen to your stories the most!"
Xiang'er and Cui Niannu immediately came over with a little face.
"Yeah... Not bad! This song was compiled by Fuhu Luohan to educate Xu Zhu! The story starts with the battle at Yanmen Pass back then..."
Jiang Chen took advantage of the dinner time to give the girls a short story.
Then he was hooked into the hot spring bath by Ju Huan's charming eyes. He wanted to be reserved and teach Ju Huan first to learn how to do dog padding.
But after treating Ju Huan as a perfect S-shaped comic figure, he changed into the swimsuit he designed and spread his hair off, Jiang Chen was stunned:
"Huan'er, you're so beautiful after you put your hair down!
I also know you have a good figure, but I didn't expect it to be so perfect! Did you use a cloth to block it here before?
Why is it so swollen? Does it hurt? Come on, I will rub it for you!"
"Ah, official..."
Ju Huan shouted in a coquettish voice, both nervous and shy.
She had always been worried that Jiang Chen would despise her "high and brave", but she had to accept her because of Empress Zheng's face. Now that she saw Jiang Chen's reaction, she finally felt completely at ease.
He hugged Jiang Chen's neck tightly and could no longer let go.
...
As a result, Jiang Chen really failed to go to the morning court on the second day!
However, he arranged another thing, which was to borrow the grain shops of the Zhu family, Zhang family, and Gao family, and sell grain in large quantities, and set the price at 130 cents per liter.
People were afraid that the royal granary would have limited food, so they would suffer losses if they bought it late, so they immediately rushed to buy it.
Wang Zhonglu, Kong Duanyou, Chen Zixi and others were even more quick and ruthless!
While instructing the servants to make a large amount of purchases from the people, he also scolded viciously: "Damn Jiang Chen, don't you want to pass it? What are the benefits of keeping the price of grain?"
"That's it! What's going on with the official family? Why are he allowed to do so? Are you not afraid of wasting all the reserved food?"
The noble families were puzzled.
Cai Jing even tried to find out Song Huizong's words from many aspects, but unfortunately he didn't find out anything.
Uneasy, he stopped the grain collection action of Cai Tao and his confidants, directed all his responsibilities and authority to Wang Zhongkui, and directly left Cai Tao out of the matter.
Wang Zhonglu didn't know that danger was approaching, so in order to see Jiang Chen's joke, he took out the coffin book. Other families were not much better, and even the Kong family began to transfer money from the money house.
After a large amount of money was poured in, the grain of the day was sold out before closing in the afternoon.
This made Wang Zhonglu, Chen Zixi and others secretly breathe a sigh of relief. They were about to drink two drinks to celebrate, but they were shocking news: Yuqing Villa transported a large amount of food and said bluntly that they could buy enough, as much as they would have.
"How is this possible?"
"Where did Jiang Chen get so much food?"
"The food that the Zhu family and the others sold to the Royal Chamber of Commerce should have been sold out long ago?"
Everyone was shocked at this moment!
Chen Zixi and other large numbers of people who were hoarding grain and the people also realized something was wrong. The next day, the people who were queuing up to buy it took a wait-and-see.
When the shopkeeper of Limen Grain Store saw that no one came to buy it, he waved his pen and directly reduced the price of grain to twelve cents.
"What do you mean? Why did we cut the price just after we bought it?"
The manager of the Wang family couldn't help but get angry.
The managers of the onlookers were also full of resentment!
"There is no way, there is too much food in Yuqing Villa. Now the rest is enough for the people of Bianjing to eat for three months.
It is said that a large amount of grain will arrive in Bianjing soon! If you don’t sell it, I’m afraid no one will buy it even if you don’t buy it!”
The manager sighed with a worried look on his face.
