Saint of the Confucian way

Fang Yun and AO Huang got into the carriage. According to the records on the schedule, they didn't go back to the county government. They bought food on the way and finished eating, and arrived at the grain field outside the city.

Because Ning'an county is close to the barbarian border, there are often small groups of barbarians sneaking attacks, few people grow grain, and a large area of fertile soil on the north bank is abandoned, so the local grain production of Ning'an county is very low and mainly depends on other places.

Because Ning'an county is the northernmost hub of Jingguo, with a large floating population and many workshops, people in Ning'an county can have a living job as long as they are not too lazy.

Fang Yun has carefully studied the current situation of Ning'an county. The environment and productivity here can not be compared with the ancient Chinese country of later generations. There is a huge gap in all aspects. Today's Ning'an county can not be measured by the standards of later generations. People with a little mind can't do such stupid things.

While understanding farming, Fang Yun was thinking about grain prices.

In fact, the food in Ning'an county is enough to eat. Even if it costs a high price for a month or two, most people can accept it, but the problem is that the people in most areas do not have enough sense of security, and any disturbance may cause panic.

Let alone Shengyuan, even the later generations with higher education popularization will panic and rush to buy medicinal materials or food because of diseases or nuclear radiation.

Ning'an county is close to the barbarian border. The people here are more sensitive and more vulnerable to panic. Especially after LAN Xungu personally announced that the barbarian is about to invade, the panic will be pushed higher.

Ao Huang could not see LAN Xun Gu's sinister intentions, but Fang Yun clearly saw that what could cause people's panic and what could not cause people's panic. It was impossible for dignified scholars not to know.

Fang Yun has read an autobiographical book of a bachelor editor of Wen Bao. It is clearly stipulated in Wen Bao that suicide events will be underreported or even not reported, because such news will lead to a wave of suicide, and the killing of children by madmen or animals will be underreported or even not reported, because inhuman animals will follow suit.

In order to keep their names on Wen Bao and enhance their position in the editorial and review court of Wen Bao, some scholars often choose to send the news that may cause imitation or panic to the editorial and review court of Wen Bao, which will be rejected and recorded by the editorial and review court of Wen Bao. Once this person transmits too many such articles, Wen Bao He will be disqualified from recommending articles.

As the leader of Yingyang army, LAN Xungu naturally knows that once he announces the military control of Ning'an county and informs the whole government, it will aggravate the panic of the people.

Fang Yun thought of LAN Xungu and snorted coldly. The killing opportunity flashed in his eyes.

While in the field, Fang Yun kept receiving letters from his staff from all over Ning'an county.

"The workers in workshops in the county don't panic. They even laugh at those who think food prices will remain high. They trust you very much. On the contrary, some workers in private workshops talk sarcastically there and are beaten."

"There are few farmers in the county, but they all have food at home and don't worry."

"Some people from famous families have been fanning the flames and preaching that the price of food will rise sharply. They even say that the food is intercepted by demons and can not be transported into the city. I have recorded these people one by one according to your instructions."

"Those high-ranking families only complain a little. After all, they all store a lot of food. The poor people do not have grain reserves, but some people are about to run out of reserves. They panic, afraid that the rise in grain prices will be higher, leading to the spread of panic, which makes those who have a certain amount of grain reserves but not many people fear that the grain will continue to soar and begin to buy some grain."

"The first people who panic are the old people. They have experienced hunger and are most worried that their children and grandchildren will also be hungry, so they are the first to participate in rush buying."

"The problem now is that many people are not well informed. As soon as they hear about the soaring food prices, they think something big is going to happen and participate in rush buying."

"Some people suspect that the demon man is about to enter Ning'an county and be ready to escape."

……

After finishing the biography, Fang Yun personally wrote a notice in the afternoon, saying that the food price was very abnormal, which may be caused by the spies of the enemy country or the secret layout of the reverse literati. It will be solved within ten days. Please rest assured.

The County printing workshop soon moved and printed thousands of announcements for the Yamen to post everywhere.

Subsequently, Fang Yun personally used the tongue blooming spring thunder to say the contents of the announcement again, and then said that it would be solved.

Soon, aides distributed all over Ning'an County sent feedback letters. Many people no longer panic, but they are still skeptical. If the food price problem can not be solved in a short time, the people will be more panic.

Fang Yun returned to the county government and issued two orders.

"Invite the chief executives and main principals of all grain banks in Ning'an county. I want to interview them."

"Arrest those who deceive the public! Hand them over to the history of the code for careful trial!"

As early as the Qin Dynasty, there were charges of "evil words" and "libel", so Fang Yun's arrest of those people was justified.

After issuing the order, Ao Huang took out his schedule and said, "you need to try a complex homicide this afternoon. It may take the whole afternoon. How can you have time to interview hundreds of people from grain stores?"

"No time? Then let them wait in the county government. If there is no time for 24 hours, I will let them leave."

Ao Huang was stunned and said with a smile, "I understand. There is no way for you to take them for the time being, but your attitude should be revealed. Then we will try the case immediately?"

"No, I won't try the case today. I have something important to discuss." after that, Fang Yun held his official seal and closed his eyes.

Ao Huang realized that Fang Yun was talking about important things with others with a missionary, but he didn't know what he was talking about. He scratched his ears and cheeks and was very unwilling.

What happened in Ning'an County soon became on the list and was concerned by scholars all over the world.

On the list, there are many well-informed scholars. Not long ago, the news that Qingyuan grain bank collaborated with the left party to manipulate the grain price of Ning'an County spread all over the world and soon spread to the readers of Ning'an county.

Many scholars in Ning'an county have just listened to Fang Yun's lecture today. Facing Fang Yun who has "spoken the word of heaven", they have been deeply impressed. Even the children and grandchildren of Zuo Xiang's party officials have dropped to the freezing point after listening to it.

Without the encouragement of Fang Yun's staff, a large number of healthy scholars spontaneously organized and began to tell the whole story to the people nearby.

The people around knew these scholars and naturally believed their words more than Fang Yun sent people to make up lies.

Early the next morning, most of the panic in Ning'an City dissipated. On the contrary, the number of people scolding the leftist party increased, especially the people who had just finished their food and had to buy high-priced food jumped to scold.

However, all this has not stopped the rise of food prices.

At noon on March 18, the price of coarse grain rose to five times that of the normal period!

Some noodle shops, steamed stuffed bun shops, steamed buns and hotels have stopped business. When the food is cheap, a large number of diners enter immediately. When the food is expensive, no one comes.

Soon, groups of beggars appeared in Ning'an city.

The resentment of the people in Ning'an county is increasing, and the incidents of fighting, theft and robbery are increasing sharply.

Since yesterday, many as like as two peas in the Ning'an County, many of them are studying with different accents. Most of them are carrying a box different from their bookcase.
