Chapter 1495 Can't give it for nothing
After the experience in the officialdom, Wang Youbao showed a gentleman's demeanor despite his gestures, but he was much more stable than when An Jing and Xiao Changyi met him at the beginning, and he was not as immature as before.
After all, Wang Youbao is already twenty-five, no longer seventeen, eight, or nine.
The current Wang Youbao is more handsome than he has been baptized over the years.
After chatting for a while, Wang Youbao said to Jing Jing and Xiao Changyi: "The army has been fighting abroad for nearly two years. Since there was no other way, I asked me to see Master and Master, and ask Master and Master what he thinks."
An Jing glanced at Xiao Changyi and saw that Xiao Changyi had no intention of opening her mouth, and she seemed to let her take care of it before she said: "Anji rice shop is all over Xiyun, but there is a lot of food, Anji rice shop can be low The price was sold to the imperial court for 20 million bales of grain to stabilize the treasury.”
You can't give it for nothing. If you give it to An Kee Rice Shop for nothing, it will collapse, and those who work in An Kee Rice Shop will lose their jobs. Anji Rice Shops are all over Xiyun and employ many people. Once they lose their jobs, it will be difficult for those people to find a living.
Not to mention, who knows what will happen next. An Kee rice shop has to continue to open, continue to prepare food, in case of emergency.
Wang Youbao was not immediately happy, but asked, "How low is the price?"
Quietly said: "Generally the grain is eight cents per pound, so Anji Rice Shop will sell the imperial court two cents per catty."
is grain, not rice.
Rice is more expensive.
"That's the case, I'll take the place of the emperor, and treat the people of Xiyun, thank the prince and princess!" Wang Youbao immediately bowed his face, bowed his hands 90 degrees to An Jing and Xiao Changyi, and gave a big salute.
Because of the war, people who have food in Xiyun want to save food, just in case, not only do not want to sell, but also do not want to sell at a lower price, Su Chengyu, the emperor, does not want to force others to sell like bandits, and now, An Kee Rice Shop can cut prices, but still so much, and still willing to sell so much food...
There is not enough food in the national treasury. The emperor Su Chengyu is most afraid of is not being able to allocate food when he needs it.
Now, there is Anji Rice Shop to help the treasury with sufficient food, not only Wang Youbao, who is in charge of everything in the treasury, is at ease, but the emperor Su Chengyu should also feel at ease when he learns that.
Jing Jing saw Wang Youbao saluting them in a righteous manner, and hurried forward, wanting to help Wang Youbao and prevent Wang Youbao from doing such a big gift, but Xiao Changyi took one step ahead of her and helped Wang Youbao.
Quiet is funny and sweet at the same time. She knew that her husband was like this, and he made it clear that he didn't want her to have any physical contact with other men, haha.
"You don't have to." Quiet said. "This is what your teacher and I should do."
After talking again, Jing Jing said solemnly: "You are the Treasurer now, so you shouldn't stay here for a long time."
Wang Youbao nodded and said, "Although the emperor did not expressly tell me to go back after delivering the food and grass, my father-in-law has already reminded me that I will return to Beijing the next day after I have delivered the food and grass, and don't stay too long."
Quietly said: "The prime minister is your father-in-law, so he will definitely not harm you. He has been an official for several years, and he is also the head of the hundred officials. Among them, he is very clear about the doorway. You will not be wrong if you listen to what he says. ."
Wang Youbao smiled and said, "Master, Master and Dad will not harm me either."
An Jing also smiled, "If we hurt you, don't complain then."
