Chapter 854： Food prices have risen

Chapter 854 Food prices have risen

So no one will doubt the provenance of these things.

Walking through the downtown all the way, Yun Yi's ear is good, and I heard everyone talking about the rise in food prices.

Someone said: "This year, the north is dry, the south is flooded, and food production has decreased. It can be said that the price increase is in the past, but the increase is a bit outrageous."

"No, this is no way for people to live."

"Hey, if there is a shortage of food in spring, summer and autumn, you can go to the mountains outside the city to find some wild vegetables and wild fruits to satisfy your hunger, but how can it be good in this winter? I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive this winter."

Yunyi looked out through the crack of the carriage window, and frowned when she saw the faces of the people who were talking about this topic.

She knew that the food was not harvested before, but she did not expect that it would affect the lives of the people so quickly.

In addition to King Yu, they also stockpiled food in Duanwangfu. There is no way. There are 200,000 Cheng family troops to support.

The financial power of Duanwang's Mansion and the General's Mansion is with her. She can't hide this matter from her. All the grain produced by all the villages in the two houses, including the grain produced by her own village, are all stored, and this is not enough. .

The fact that the manor used money to buy food was only on the bright side. The respective subordinates of Jing Rui and his son had already purchased a large amount of food in the dark since the emperor suspended the distribution of military spending.

It’s just that they were all done in a scattered, low-key and hidden way, so that no one noticed.

In fact, since the man in the palace has postponed the payment of military expenses, the father is really worried. After all, there is food and drink for 200,000 people and military pay. As for Jing Rui and Yun Yi, they have a firm heart. .

They each had a lot of private property, and each had a dedicated person to develop and manage the property in various places. The two of them had a lot of Zhuangzi in their hands. Even if they didn't buy it from other places, the grain produced by their own Zhuangzi could withstand for a while.

Not to mention that Yunyi still has room to defy the sky, and both of them are not short of money, so as soon as they heard the wind, they let their subordinates start preparing secretly.

Thinking of the two warehouses that he received last night, Cheng Jiajun doesn't have to worry too much about the next ration issue.

What's more, there are three warehouses in King Yu's place. Although there was last night's incident, those three warehouses must have been staffed. The guards will be stricter than before, but it's just more troublesome for her.

Hearing what the people said just now, I would have an idea in my heart.

Since the rise in food prices, they are also responsible, they cannot ignore it, at least when necessary, they must do some modest efforts.

For example, in the winter, when you cook porridge, you should at least take the lead. There are always kind people in the big families in the city, at least helping everyone to survive this cold winter.

When spring starts, everyone will have a way to live.

sighed and thought to himself: It seems that I have thought a little far, at least it is not so serious now.

Just as she had collected her thoughts, she heard Qingdai say, "Prince Prince, here we are."

As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of Ai's house, the gatekeeper of the Ai's house had already sent someone to run into the house to inform the masters to go.

Yunyi got off the carriage, and Mrs. Ai brought someone to greet her: "I have seen the princess."

Yun Yi quickly stretched out his hand to help the eldest lady of the Ai family: "Aunts, don't be too polite."

Mrs. Ai's family still gave a salute: "The ceremony cannot be abandoned, and I can't let people pick the wrong place in the future and cause you trouble."
