Chapter 1144 Business rivals
After hesitating for a while, Li Zheng took a sip of tea and said: "The establishment of a workshop needs to be tailored to local conditions. Counties and counties in various places can submit their own situation, and the location of the workshop and the number of manpower they will provide, as well as the manpower capacity of each place. What kind of talent, this is the factor we choose the place."

Fang Xuanling listened and nodded in agreement.

Du Ruhui said: "You want to open conditions first, and then you choose among them?"

Li Zheng nodded and said, "Of course."

Fang Xuanling said: "Then this will be the case for the time being, and we can only reply in this way first."

Du Ruhui looked at Xu Jingzong who was at the side and said: "Yesterday, the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China received a letter from Xu Jingzong, saying that Jingyang wants to buy grain from the court."

Xu Jingzong said in a low voice: "That's right, it's just waiting for you to pay the price."

Fang Xuanling thought about it and said: "Since the price of old grain is lower than the market price of new grain, the market price of grain outside is always two shi." Li Zheng said: "How about the price of old grain is always ten shi?"

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at each other.

Du Ruhui put down his teacup and said, "The usual price of ten shi is too low."

Li Zheng also said: "If these old grains are not sold, they will look rotten and have been hoarded in the warehouse for several years, and if the old grains are not cleared out, the new grains cannot be put away. This is the dilemma of the court."

Fang Xuanling looked at Li Zheng suspiciously, "You still know this?"

Li Zheng waved his fan and said, "A lot of times shopping malls are like battlefields. If you know yourself and your enemy, you can win a hundred battles. If I want to do business with North Korea and China, of course I also need to know the situation of North Korea and China."

Du Ruhui said again: "Even if there is a lot of old grain in the court that can't be processed, it can't be sold at such a low price."

Li Zheng continued: "It's always Qian Bashi! What do you think?"

Fang Xuanling struggled and said, "Li Zheng, you are taking advantage of someone's danger."

Li Zheng smiled and said, "So what if you just take advantage of others' dangers? Right now, the situation in your court is like this. Even the Cheng family who has accumulated old grains for many years don't want it. I can still use it as fodder."

Fang Xuanling glanced at Du Ruhui.

Du Ruhui said: "How about this, how about Qian Liushi?"

Li Zheng pondered in his mind, "Is it always Qian Liushi?"

Fang Xuanling asked again: "Do you think the price is high?"

Du Ruhui continued: "At the usual price of six shi, the court will sell you 30 shi of old grain! If the usual price of eight shi is only 15 shi, what does Chang'an order think?"

I have to say that Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are not easy to fool.

These two are not ordinary opponents.

Fang Mou's judgment is not rumored.

They are also the top advisers in the hands of Li Shimin.

Being able to work for Li Shimin for so long, these two people should not be underestimated.

It has always been worth six stones, and it can be sold for 30 stones.

It has always been worth eight stones, but it can only be sold for 15 stones.

The price is [-]% lower, but nearly half of the grain is lost.

If the price is 30% higher, you get [-] stones of grain.

As for North Korea and China, no matter what price the grain is sold at, North Korea and China will not lose money.

Instead, what they lost was the amount of food they bought.

Instead, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling sang and made peace, but it was their turn to make a choice.

Unexpectedly, the ancients had already played haggling to such an extent.

It is really impossible to bully the ancients to fall behind.

Li Zhengchang sighed and said, "You two are really..."

Du Ruhui said: "Chang'an Ling should have a clear account in his mind."

Li Zheng said with a smile: "In business, kindness is the most important thing. If I choose the usual money of eight stones, and Chaozhong only sells 15 stones, then Chaozhong will still make a net profit."

Fang Xuanling nodded and said: "For the court, it is the food that comes from taxation. For you, you have always been worth six shi. The price is already very low. Please think again."

Li Zheng said to Xu Jingzong: "Bring the contract."

Xu Jingzong took out two contracts, and Li Zheng wrote down the price and quantity on them. He used to pay six shi, and bought 33 shi of old grain with [-] guan.

Fang Xuanling said: "The old man will take the one for approval from the court."

Du Ruhui also said: "As for the affairs of various counties and counties, we will let the counties and counties submit their own situation, and then hand it over to you."

Li Zheng bowed and said, "It's time to work."

Seeing that the two got up to leave, Li Zheng said, "Are you really not going to stay for dinner?"

Fang Xuanling said: "No, we have to rush to reply to His Majesty."

Du Ruhui also said: "Let's take my leave first."

After sending Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui away, Xu Jingzong said, "Chang'an Ling, these two are really difficult to deal with."

Li Zheng said: "It's not without reason that they are so valued by Li Shimin. In fact, I really want to recruit these two people to work for me in Jingyang."

Xu Jingzong frowned and said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy."

Li Zhengruo nodded thoughtfully, "I'm afraid Li Shimin will fight me desperately."

Xu Jingzong said again: "However, the old fox Changsun Wuji is much worse than the two of them recently."

Changsun Wuji is indeed capable, but Changsun Wuji has many methods and likes to win people's hearts.

But Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling belonged to the kind who did practical things, and they didn't have as many minds as Changsun Wuji.

Compared with Changsun Wuji, he likes to exclude dissidents.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are more worthy of respect.

At noon, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui returned to Zhongshu Province to arrange the next matters.

Reply to the counties and counties in various places, report their own situation in each place, and hand it over to Jingyang for selection.

There is no need to seek Jingyang all over the place.

It can be regarded as an explanation to various places.As for the counties and counties with relatively poor conditions, the management of the county magistrates and county guards in various places is also required.

In this way, it is both emotional and reasonable to say the past, and the counties and counties in various places are not good at evading themselves.

Poor governance is also a local problem.

It not only tested the governance capabilities of counties and counties in various places, but also let the court know the situation in various places.

It's a multi-purpose thing, and Li Shimin quickly approved it.

The matter of buying and selling old grain was handed over to the household department, and everything went smoothly.

After a busy day, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui walked out of Chengtian Gate together.

On the bustling Zhuque Street, Fang Xuanling said to Du Ruhui, "Now I finally understand why I feel different in Jingyang."

Du Ruhui said, "Really? What's the reason?"

Fang Xuanling said as he walked: "Chang'an Ling is too crowded and noisy, giving people a very depressing feeling, like being in a crowded cage. After staying in Chang'an for a long time, there is a feeling of getting out when going to Jingyang. The sense of openness in the cage, and more importantly, the peaceful atmosphere in Jingyang also makes people calm down unconsciously."

Du Ruhui looked around and said, "It's true from what you've said, Chang'an is indeed too crowded and too noisy. Everyone is crowding into Chang'an. It's been many years since I experienced that tranquility."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "When we get old, let's find a place like Jingyang to spend the rest of our lives."
