"Your Majesty, the price of Chang'an cloth suddenly changed today. Coarse
cloth, fine silk, and silk have all gone up to varying degrees!"
In Ganlu Temple, Zhao Song quietly walked in and said to Li Ergong.
Li Er frowned, and said unhappily: "Can you find out who is hoarding and
driving up cloth prices~?"
In this era, the upper-level rulers do not have much financial awareness.
Naturally, there is no phenomenon of excessive currency devaluation and
soaring prices. Under normal circumstances, prices will get out of control
only in troubled times. When Li Yuan was in power, he did not lose control.
Despite domestic prices, because stable prices are often a symbol of peace and
stability in a country, prices in the early Tang Dynasty were quite low.
Why didn't Li Er understand this? He was very concerned about domestic prices,
especially those in Chang'an, so when he heard the price changes in Chang'an
City, his brows frowned.
Zhao Song bowed and said, "My Majesty, it's not that individual vendors are
hoarding, but that almost all the cloth vendors in the entire Chang'an City
are raising prices at the same time! Yesterday and today, several dealers
outside the city entered the city one after another. The large quantities of
coarse cloths were purchased in large quantities. The coarse cloths in many
cloth workshops were completely wiped out. When the cloth merchants saw this,
they raised their prices collectively! However, the ready-to-wear shop in
Hou's house in Yong'an and Cao's, the first cloth merchant in Chang'an City
The cloth shop did not increase the price!"
"There are such miracles? Why do people buy cloth in large quantities? Li
Zexuan, Cao's family?"
Li Er was surprised. He stood up, walked back and forth two steps with his
hands, and suddenly said, "Did Li Zexuan and Cao's family form some Yanhuang
Chamber of Commerce a few months ago?"
Zhao Song lowered his head and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Li Er seemed to understand, and murmured: "So, the reason why the Cao family
didn't raise the cloth price should be instructed by Li Zexuan? What the **
is this kid doing? How do I think he had anticipated the cloth price meeting
in Chang'an City in advance? Soaring? This must have something to do with
him!"
Zhao Song's eyelids moved, and then he was silent again like an old monk
entering Ding!
After a while, Li Er said: "Look up why these dealers suddenly bought so many
cloths! At the same time, he ordered Liu Dewei, Qing Dali Temple, to strictly
investigate the vendors who maliciously bid up cloth prices in Chang'an City!"
"Old slave follow the order!"
Zhao Song arched his hands and walked out.

Chang'an City is always full of well-informed people, especially for the big
brothers in the court, there are few secrets in Chang'an City that they don’t
know. When the price of cloth in the city is soaring today, they all received
news one after another, even some People also know that a large number of
farmers who buy cloth are from Lantian County-Li Zexuan's fief!
Combined with the fact that only Li Zexuan's and Cao Wendong's cloths in
Chang'an City did not increase in price, the answer behind the incident is
ready to come out, but the truth of the matter is really puzzling!
What exactly does Li Zexuan want to do? Why does he instigate dealers to buy
cloth in large quantities? What will be the purpose of these cloths?
The court officials are all puzzled!
It's not that they are not well informed. It is because the dealers are
surprisingly tight. The dealers have asked, the householders sent by courtiers
have asked, and the dealers on other dealers have also asked, but they have
not asked.
Li Zexuan's seemingly unremarkable decision has touched the nerves of many
people. The main reason is that Li Zexuan's performance in Chang'an City over
the past six months has been too brilliant, and now that news about him will
attract a lot of attention.
"Xiaoxuan, the old man heard that all the dealers on your Zhuangzi are buying
cloth everywhere. Has your boy been doing anything mysterious recently?"
Approaching the evening, Cheng Yaojin came to Li Mansion and found Li Zexuan.
The old man didn't mean anything, and after taking his seat in the main hall
of Li Mansion, he asked straightforwardly.
Li Zexuan's brows frowned imperceptibly. The farmers collectively kept the
vegetable in the greenhouse secret. He already knew this. Of course he
understood the thoughts of the farmers, and he also hoped that his own farmers
could be the first batch. People who enjoy the bonus of greenhouse vegetables.
However, the Li family has a very close relationship with the Cheng family. It
can be said that the benefits that the dealers of the Cheng family now enjoy
are basically implemented by Cheng Yaojin following Li Zexuan’s policy towards
the dealers. Now Cheng Yaojin personally comes to ask the dealers to suddenly
buy land. Things, this makes Li Zexuan a little bit embarrassed, to say, or
not to say?
For him, it doesn't matter whether it is said or not, but for his own dealers,
it is different!
This market in Chang'an City is not small or big. If more people share food,
the people in Li Zexuan Village will naturally get less profit.
"Uncle Cheng, it is true that my nephew has a way to grow vegetables in the
winter. Many oil cloths are used in it. My nephew has passed this method to
the farmers on the land~www.mtlnovel. com~ So they will buy cloth in Chang'an
City in the next few days!"
After weighing it for a moment, Li Zexuan decided to tell the truth. He
believed that Cheng Yaojin knew how to measure.
At the very least, he will give the dealers some means to make money. Can the
money in this world be made? Even if the dealers on the Cheng family's
confession started to engage in greenhouses, Li Zexuan felt that the income of
his own dealers would never be low!
"Huh? Can you grow vegetables in winter~? Xiaoxuan, did you hear me wrong?"
Cheng Yaojin's first reaction was surprise, his eyes were as big as copper
bells, and his face was incredible!
Li Zexuan nodded and said, "Well, Uncle Cheng, you heard me right! My nephew
will take you to see something!"
Cheng Yaojin didn't know why, but he followed Li Zexuan to the west courtyard.
Seeing the half-person tall greenhouse in the west courtyard, coupled with Li
Zexuan's explanation on the side, Cheng Yaojin finally accepted the reality of
greenhouse vegetables for the time being.
"If your greenhouse can really grow vegetables in winter, then the farmer of
your fief will make a lot of money this year! It is estimated that Lantian
County will also become the top three counties in Chang'an City! Haha! Your
kid treats his farmer But I really have nothing to say!"
Cheng Yaojin stroked his beard and exclaimed.
Li Zexuan smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps!"
Cheng Yaojin squeezed his chin, thought for a moment, and said, "That's it,
the old man shouldn't come today! This thing was originally a benefit for your
own housekeeper, but it was known by the old man. It shouldn't be! Don't
worry, old man. Right today, I have heard nothing!"
Lao Cheng is not a stupid person, he knows how to advance and retreat.
Although he is a little jealous of the huge profits of greenhouse vegetables,
he will not take advantage of his own family!
