Chapter 130
Chu Suiliang was the one running around these days, but Lin Heng was taking things easy here.

I serve porridge during the day and write something at night. Occasionally, I can have a chance to be alone with Li Ningxi.

These days, I have no intention of taking advantage of my young wife, and the only time they get along is to hug her and relieve some inner fatigue.

The pressure is a bit too much.

Over at the imperial court, Fang Xuanling sent someone to spread the news. He mobilized some people and could probably raise 20 shi of food, which has been put into shopping malls in Henan.

Obviously, the people behind it have been swallowed up completely.

The aristocratic family was constantly transporting grain, especially when they saw the huge profits brought by the grain and realized that the court really didn't care about them, they almost didn't need Lin Heng to remind them, and they were also transporting food here like crazy. grain.

However, criticisms abounded in the court, especially Changsun Wuji, who complained about Lin Heng's inaction in the north, and who found out that Lin Heng's subordinates were also fueling the grain-selling scandal. Directly sue Lin Heng and profit from it.

It is estimated that the local officials have already appealed to Changsun Wuji. They must remove the official road from the court to the grain merchants, otherwise they will suffer huge losses.

Lin Heng's reputation was transferred to Chang'an within a few days. When they heard that Lin Heng, as the minister of disaster relief, was making profits from it, countless people became excited, and most of them were literati who denounced Lin Heng.

But this is not the time for Li Shimin to take away Lin Heng's contributions. After all, food prices are still very high.

Grain prices radiating from the Henan area to the entire north have been able to be controlled at around [-]%.

The local manipulators are still collecting grains, and they will not let the family's large quantities of grain enter the market even if they break their teeth, but some small grain merchants are no longer able to stop it.

Even with the threat from local bureaucrats, these merchants are still selling grain.

Someone in my family is about to pass the imperial examination. If you have the ability, you will raid my house, but don’t you dare?Then I will sell it for the future of my family...

There are probably many such businessmen in Luoyang City.

The controllers behind these small grain merchants are no longer able to control them and only collect grain from large grain merchants.

The price of food is so high that it is still impossible to sell it, but the price of food is already there. Once the food of the family enters the market, the price of food will be even lower...

In the past half month, at least millions of shi of food have poured in from other places. Most of the contributors are from aristocratic families, but the people behind it are still swallowing.

It is conceivable how big the power behind it is, but it seems that it is beyond its power.

However, there is one thing worth noting. Two days ago, when the Lu family was transporting grain to Luoyang, one of their ships was scuttled. Later, the man was caught and committed suicide by taking poison without saying a word.

It can be seen that the people behind it no longer have much money to collect grain, and a string will soon be tightened. In order to maintain profits, this batch of grain will flood into the market, and grain prices will be directly flattened.

The people behind you are plotting, but I am plotting, and you have to accept it even if you don’t accept it!

At night, under the eaves of the small courtyard, Lin Heng lay on Li Ningxi's legs, quietly blowing the cool breeze.

"Lin Langjun's plan is so powerful. The price of food has almost dropped by half."

Li Ningxi chuckled and rubbed Lin Heng's hair. It was almost the first time that business could be used in this way. It was terrifying.

Li Ningxi, who was slapped by Lin Heng for no apparent reason, suddenly felt confused.

Lin Heng said with a smile: "This is not enough. No common people can afford it, and besides, are you a pig..."

You can talk nonsense like this. It was discovered that Lin Heng was the manipulator behind the scenes. It is estimated that he will lose his head tomorrow.

If you are a mediocre person, no one will be able to discover this.

Li Ningxi also understood what Lin Heng meant, so she casually talked about other things. Maybe Li Lizhi couldn't sit still recently. She wanted to leave the palace but couldn't afford to go to the disaster relief, so she took a lot of paper and started writing and drawing. , mainly some of her own opinions.

Li Lizhi couldn't understand the thing about food prices, and Lin Heng didn't want to comment on it.

"I finally didn't have this light bulb. Why did I bring her up? I said I wouldn't let her come, but my father is really serious. I guess I'll have to complain to my father again when I go back." Li Ningxi said with a smile: "Lin Langjun is here for Your Majesty sees clearly the people who do things in the world and will not blame you."

Lin Heng said helplessly: "I can't stop those people from talking. What do you think the people in Chang'an say about me now?"

Li Ningxi didn't say anything, but she could guess that Lin Heng's reputation might not be that bad now.

As for the court, needless to say, he scolded Lin Heng when nothing happened, and even more so now.

She could also feel the pressure on Lin Heng, otherwise he would just lie on her lap to relieve his boredom.

Lin Heng's mind was also a mess. The branches in Chang'an and Jiangnan were actually Lin Heng's information network. He could get a lot of useful information from the two places. He was thinking about when to open the branches. Everywhere, I am the next Rothschild or something...

Information was more valuable in the feudal era.

People in other state capitals know that they can sell grain to the north and have the government to protect them, so they are starting to do it now.

But half a month has passed, and they can earn much less, but it is also a kind of pressure, a kind of pressure for the people behind the scenes.

Maybe the next shipment of food will be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Now, Lin Heng doesn't know how much food the people behind the scenes can eat. The food needed may be several times more than planned.

Plans are often inferior to changes. He needs to integrate this information every day and issue corresponding instructions to various places, so it is quite annoying.

In fact, at this time, when the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the flowers are in front of the flowers and the moon is under the moon, it is a good time to fall in love. Lin Heng, who has been relaxing for a long time, obviously does not want to miss it.

Lin Heng suddenly raised his head, intending to look at Li Ningxi's face, but was blocked from seeing it, and felt a little emotional for a moment.

"Ning Xi?"

"What's wrong, Lin Langjun?"

"Have you ever heard of a saying? If a woman lowers her head so that her toes are not visible, she is already extremely beautiful in the world."

Li Ningxi sighed and thought for a while, but she probably didn't understand what Lin Heng meant.

So Lin Heng's body arched upward until his head touched the object that obscured his vision.

I have never found my wife to be so talented before...

Li Ningxi blushed suddenly, as if she understood, but she didn't expect Lin Heng to use such elegant words. She originally thought it had some deep meaning, but she didn't expect it to be so superficial...

Playing straight has always been Lin Heng's approach when the two of them get along, but when he said this today, Li Ningxi really couldn't handle it.

Should I slap him, call him a slut or something?

Otherwise push him down and just go back.

Such an idea suddenly came to Li Ningxi's mind, but after thinking about it, she forgot about it. She was shamelessly touched by this guy.

But Li Ningxi, who seemed to have a spirit of resistance, obviously did not let Lin Heng get what he wanted.

So she got up and helped Lin Heng up.

"Mr. Lin has something to do tomorrow, so Ning Xi will go back and rest first."

Lin Heng looked at the imperceptible smile on Li Ningxi's lips and was stunned for a moment.

The plot development is wrong. What about the next part? It ends immediately? ? ?
No, you can’t raise a daughter-in-law who is too smart. The ancients said that it is virtue for a woman to have no talent. They are so right!
