After the divorce, the salted fish beauty took the script of the villain

After the Chamber of Commerce was reshuffled, Feng Yu had the right to speak, and she could basically monopolize some core industries in Beijing. Lin Heli, Zhang Boju and others were very worried about this.This means that Fengyu has the power to set the price. How to set the price is all up to her. There are some people's livelihood products, the power of pricing is very important, and it is very taboo for one person to dominate.

If Feng Yu is a profiteer and raises prices, the people will definitely lose their livelihood. But Feng Yu has always controlled the prices in the capital. There are wars in Jiangnan and Zhongzhou. Recently, the prices of goods in all walks of life have soared. Feng Yu reorganized the merchants so quickly. It is to cut off the group of wealthy families who want to make war fortunes. They always use natural and man-made disasters and wars to make fortunes. Food prices and cloth prices will rise to particularly terrifying levels during special periods, and will continue to affect them for two or three years. Feng Yu After Xie Xun left for the war, his focus was on stabilizing people's living standards and trying to maintain the people's lives at pre-war levels.

What Lin Heli and Uncle Zhang were worried about did not happen, and food prices gradually stabilized.

In early September, news of Xie Xun's victory came from Zhongzhou.

Xie Xun successively captured six cities in Zhongzhou, accounting for one-third of the cities in Zhongzhou. Xie Xun fought bravely and liked to make dangerous moves and attack Huanglong. Although Zhongzhou's soldiers and horses were also elite, they were not as brave as Ningzhou's. The cavalry and Xie Xun almost always defeated the many with less. The most famous battle was when [-] soldiers and horses defeated General Gao's [-] troops. They were defeated and abandoned the city and fled.

The greater the victory, the more stable the morale of the army is, and the morale is greatly shaken. If you just take advantage of the victory and pursue it, it will be a matter of time before you regain Zhongzhou. Beining's army is victorious and the people's lives are stable. Under such a situation, Feng Yu reorganizes the merchants and uses more and more methods to suppress the clan and the powerful. tough.

After the Zhang and Lin clans cooperated with the New Deal, the elders of the Zhou and Fang clans saw that the situation was over, and gradually let go of their obsessions and fully cooperated with the New Deal. The atmosphere in the capital was better than when Xie Xun left the capital.

The Zhou Fang family was willing to cooperate with the new deal, mainly because the merchants of the Zhou Fang family, under Feng Yu's suggestion, renegotiated with the heads of the two clans and redistributed interests.

Feng Yu's methods have always been a combination of firmness and softness, and she will not blindly suppress and intimidate.

But someone wanted to cause trouble for her.

After the war broke out, the price of food in Kyoto has remained high. Now food and grass have been urgently transferred to Jiangnan and the army sent to Zhongzhou, and everyone is cutting back on food and clothing.Feng Yu has been trying to keep down the price of food since Xie Xun left Beijing, but in the past two days it has started to rise again. The stocks of major grain stores have bottomed out, and the price has naturally risen with the market.

The Su family's granary was also out of stock. The grain that Feng Yu had stored a month ago was relief grain and could not be moved for the time being. She called shopkeeper Wang and several merchants from the grain store for interrogation and found out that the food shortage was due to the recent epidemic. The waterway was interrupted, land transportation was difficult, and grain could not be transported in. However, the grain transportation line had always been controlled by Li and Cai.

These two in-laws have a very close relationship and have always controlled the major transportation lines in Jiangnan and Kyoto. Not only food, but also cash crops, etc., all rely on them for transportation.

If Li and Cai were not forced to do so, they would not want to make a dangerous move. This would kill a thousand enemies, damage themselves by eight hundred, and also damage their reputation.

Feng Yu's purpose of dispersing the clan's financial power is too obvious, and her methods are tough. If they don't rise up to resist, they can only sit back and wait for death. If Feng Yu really cares about the people's livelihood in the capital, she will definitely talk to them. As long as Feng Yu takes the initiative to find They negotiated and everything was possible.

Feng Yu gathered several merchants from Liangzhuang to discuss countermeasures.

"Third Miss, the food in Kyoto is not only provided by the suburbs of Beijing, but also by several nearby cities. It usually does not rely so much on the Li and Cai families. Now is wartime. The emperor collected all the food in the suburbs of Beijing before going on an expedition. The food after the autumn harvest is also They have all been transported to the front line. What we in Beijing are eating now are the stored grains from previous years, which have to be shipped in from other places. These important checkpoints are all filled with people from the Li family and the Cai family. If they deliberately delay the process, the grain will be If the seizure is delayed for one day, Kyoto will be short of food, and for seven consecutive days, Kyoto will be short of food."

"In addition to their seizure of grain trucks, several major granaries in Beijing belong to the Li family and the Cai family. They want to deliberately hoard grain in the warehouses and raise prices. We have no choice." "Last year's harvest was good, and this autumn's harvest is also good. Although It’s wartime, and there’s actually no shortage of food in Bac Ninh, but some people are deliberately seizing and hoarding it.”

……

Feng Yu listened to their complaints, frowned slightly, and said softly, "Is there a solution? What if someone else replaces their people midway?"

"What the girl doesn't know is that the Li family has been operating on major grain transportation lines for many years and is deeply rooted. Even if someone is sent to clear the line, the effect will not be big. Unless we kill the chicken to scare the monkey, and make an example of others, replace everything from top to bottom. Here It involves many industries and affects the whole body, so it is not easy to resolve it violently. If violent resolution arouses public resentment, the consequences will be even more disastrous."

"Yes, they just want to force the girl to negotiate with them. It's so mean."

Feng Yu's face was solemn. She had to take care of the people's livelihood in Beijing. During the war, the people could not be in chaos.

"Send people overnight to Shuncheng and Liancheng, and to Lingzhuang to adjust grains to temporarily solve the crisis in the capital. Let me think of a way." The Su family's control of grains is basically in Jiangnan, but in the past three years, Jiangnan industry After being controlled by Yu Wenjing, it was scattered to pieces, and the merchants in Jiangnan divided up the Su family's property in Jiangnan.

These merchants basically rely on the Li family and the Cai family. These two families are loyal to Yu Wenjing, and this is Yu Wenjing's reward for them.

The Ministry of Household Affairs has collected the military rations that will be sent to Zhongzhou next month. This food must not be touched. The Li family and the Cai family deliberately raised the price of food, and it was the ordinary people who suffered.

Feng Yu also made preparations. She called for Nuanyang and asked him to take a team of forbidden soldiers and people from the Su family escort agency to the south of the Yangtze River to transport the food that Li had detained on the way.

After Nuanyang received the order, he led five thousand people from the Forbidden Army and the Su Family Escort Bureau out of the capital overnight.

Zhang Boju thought to himself, "Our new queen is so courageous. She dares to send the imperial army out of the capital at this juncture and does not stay in the capital. Isn't she afraid of Zhongzhou's deception and sending people to raid the capital?"

Xie Xun didn't leave many soldiers and horses, only [-] Ningzhou cavalry, and the rest were the Forbidden Army and the Imperial Guards. This was the period when Kyoto had the least defense. It was almost a Kyoto with only civilians and no troops to defend it.

Lin Heli said calmly, "She believes in Xie Xun. The Li family wants to use food to force her to negotiate, but their hope may be in vain. The emperor and empress have similar tempers and will not accept threats."

Zhang Boju murmured to himself, "This is going to be difficult."
