Chapter 490 Unbearable anger
The sound of water brought by Lin Xuan sitting in the bathtub brought Guo Caiyue back to her senses, and quickly hung the clothes in her hand on the hanger.
Guo Caiyue blushed pretty, as if she was about to bleed, hesitated for a moment, and reached for the belt around her waist.
Sitting in the bathtub, Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing the rustling sound behind him, he turned his head curiously, and saw the scene that made his blood spurt.
"Miss Caiyue, what are you doing?" Lin Xuan said in surprise.
At this time, Guo Caiyue was wearing a small dress, except for the important parts that were covered, the other parts were exposed.
This attraction to men is undoubtedly fatal.
Lin Xuan had an instant reaction.
Seeing Lin Xuan looking at her, Guo Caiyue became even more shy.
There was a faint rosiness on the exposed skin, and it was unknown whether it was from embarrassment or coldness.
"Hou...Master Hou, I...remove...your coat...serve you...to take a bath."
In order to teach her, Chunyue and the others specially served her to take a bath once. She saw Chunyue and the others dressed like this, so they also dressed like this.
Lin Xuan almost vomited blood, is there someone who serves you like this?
Maids wear small clothes to wait for their masters to take a bath because they are maids. If the master needs them, they must be satisfied, so naturally there is no need to shy away from it.
But Guo Caiyue was just a temporary maid, wouldn't dressing like this tempt him?
But Guo Caiyue has already taken it off, so he can't let others wear it, right?
He could only turn his head away and remained silent.
Guo Caiyue put away the shyness in her heart, stepped forward and helped Lin Xuan take a bath jerky.
For Lin Xuan, this was not a kind of enjoyment, but a kind of suffering.
After all, Guo Caiyue is a woman from a good family, unlike Chunyue and Yuhe, she is his maid, and he can do whatever he wants.
Therefore, even though Lin Xuan was furious, he could only endure it.
Lin Xuan was furious at this time, but many people were furious at this time.
These people are the grain merchants and aristocratic families in Chang'an.
Some people shipped grain to Chang'an a few days ago, but those who had sworn that they would eat no matter how much grain they got, said they would have to wait a few days.
At that time, they didn't care. After all, they shipped a lot of food, and the price of food had tripled, so the other party hesitated, which was normal.
But they were not worried. They had already found out before that those who collected the grain were from the imperial court.
They also inquired about the news that the imperial court is rich but short of food, so they are naturally not afraid that no one will collect the food.
However, after they waited for a few days, those who contacted them before suddenly said that there was enough food and no more.
Don't want three words, it's like a bolt from the blue.
Those grain merchants spent manpower and material resources to transport the grain, but now the other party said no, how could they accept it.
However, the opponent is the imperial court, what can they do?
The food is shipped, but it can't be shipped back, right?Then they will lose out.
Since the court doesn't want it, they should sell it to the common people in retail.
Don't look at the fact that the imperial court sells grain at a low price, but each family can only buy one day's grain at a time according to the population.
For the common people, this can only relieve their urgent needs, but it cannot give them any sense of security.
Many families with money want to buy some grain to keep at home so that they can have a bottom line.
However, the snacks in the grain store were bought at a high price by people arranged by the court, and the common people could not buy them at all.
Now that they have food, they don't have to worry about selling it, it's just a little troublesome.
However, when they were just about to sell grain, a news came out from the government that they would sell grain at a low price, with no limit.
Those grain merchants had no choice but to cut prices.
However, even if the price was lowered, it could not be sold. In the end, when the price dropped to the same level as before, people began to buy grain.
The price of grain in Chang'an returned to the previous price, and the people calmed down, and did not stockpile a large amount of grain as before.
This caused those grain merchants to sell their grain very slowly.
It can't be said that it is slow, it can only be said that the amount of food sold every day is similar to the amount that their shops sold every day before.
But they brought back so much food from other places, all with real money.
Now that food is selling so slowly, when will the funds come back?
If the funds are not returned, what about their other businesses?
At this time, someone contacted them again, and bought all the grain in their hands at the current price.
In such an environment in ancient times, how many businessmen who were able to accumulate such a large fortune were fools?
They soon understood that this was a game played by the court and demanded a price increase.
But the other party told them very clearly that if they sell it, they will sell it, and if they don’t sell it, they will keep it.
There was a stalemate for a while.
The Cui family in Chang'an, the five surnames and Qiwang gathered together again.
"Brother Cui, we only transported food to Chang'an after listening to your Cui family's advice. What should we do now?"
Cui Hao said indifferently: "You can choose to sell the grain to the imperial court, or you can transport the grain back."
"The imperial court knows that if we want to harvest grain, we will secretly increase the price of grain. They don't want to pay so much money, and they deliberately do this to put us together. How can we let Li Shimin do what he wants?"
"Then you guys should transport the food back," Cui Hao said.
"You said it lightly. How do we calculate the loss of our transportation? Even if we don't sell it to the court, those merchants will not sell it? Unless we are willing to buy their grain. Our family has no shortage of grain. In the past few years The weather is good, the price of food will not increase, we have to buy it and ship it back, it is useless."
"Then what do you mean now?" Cui Hao said with a gloomy face.
He could tell that the other families obviously wanted the Cui family to bear their losses.
"The reason why we transported grain to Chang'an is because of the advice of the Cui family. The Cui family must compensate us for the loss. In addition, in order to make Li Shimin's plan come to nothing, the Cui family must eat all the food from those merchants."
"That's right, isn't Li Shimin plotting against us? Then let's make Chang'an really short of food and see how he responds."
Cui Hao sneered and said, "What you think is beautiful. Our Cui family's food will be sold to the imperial court. You can do whatever you like."
"What do you Cui family mean? Knowing that the court needs food for war, why do you still sell food to the court?"
"That's right, before this old man thought that your Cui family wanted to make a fortune from the court, but now it's obvious that you can't make any money. I really can't figure out what your Cui family's intentions are."
If it wasn't for the fact that the Cui family was the first family, they all suspected that the Cui family had joined Li Shimin.
"Have you forgotten the generals we recruited? Without war, how can they make meritorious service? In fact, Datang's war is good for us. Even if the war is won, Datang's foundation will be consumed, and the recovery of strength will be difficult." Wouldn't it be a good thing for us to take time?" Cui Hao said lightly.
"This..." The heads of several other companies looked at each other in blank dismay.
They had to admit that what Cui Hao said made sense.
In the end, except for the Wang family, the others agreed.
"This old man needs to discuss this matter with the family." Wang Liang hesitated to clean up.
Wang Liang was the new head of the Wang family in Chang'an after the death of Wang Duo and his son.
He has just taken power, and he dare not make decisions on many things by himself.
Cui Hao smiled and said: "Brother Wang, it is right to ask the family for instructions, but it will take several days for a while, so you can't just ask the family for instructions when something happens, right? In this way, Brother Wang, the head of Chang'an, may not be in charge for long."
Wang Liang blushed, Cui Hao was right, if he consulted the family for everything, he would not make a mistake, but would the family think that he was mediocre?
"Just do what Brother Cui said." Wang Liang said.
To be selected by the Wang family as the person in charge in Chang'an, Wang Liang still has the ability.
It's just that he just became the person in charge, so he was afraid of making mistakes.
