It wasn't just the nobles who were suspicious, but also the citizens of the Great Wall.
But at the same time, they were also looking forward to Li Shiming opening his warehouse.
Very quickly.
It was time to open the warehouse.
On this day.
There was a sea of people outside the granary.
Not only were there dignitaries, but there were also many commoners who came to watch the show.
"Could it be that the imperial court really has a lot of grain?”
"This time, His Majesty actually opened the granary. It seems that the so-called lack of granaries is all fake.”
"That's right. As long as the granaries of our Great Tang are rich enough, we won't buy the rice that those people sell for as high as the sky.”
The nobles scoffed at the commoners 'fluke.
" Humph, we're already at the end of the road. I didn't expect Your Majesty to do this. If there's a shortage of food later, I'm afraid Chang 'an City will change."”
"Do you think that His Majesty really dares to open the granary because he really has food?”
"I don't know, but there was a lot of movement in the granary a few days ago. Moreover, there were heavy troops guarding it. I don't know what happened.”
"Hehe, no matter what happened, the granary definitely doesn't have any food.”
"Really? That's good. I've stored thousands of tons of grain and bought them at a high price. If the national treasury is rich, then I'll suffer a huge loss.”
Everyone discussed animatedly.
Soon, Minister of Revenue Dai Zhou arrived.
At the same time, there were also many Imperial Guards who were on guard.
He looked at the sea of commoners and dignitaries and laughed. He turned around and asked someone to open the granary.
Everyone was looking forward to it.
The dignitaries were waiting to see Li Shimin make a fool of himself, while the commoners were filled with anticipation.
" There are dozens of granaries in Chang 'an now. The total amount of grain in the granaries is 98.5 million dan, so you don't have to worry about the granaries of the imperial court being insufficient.”
Dai Zhou said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Everyone present was instantly dumbfounded and in disbelief!
98.5 million dan!
The commoners looked up and saw that the granary was indeed full. They were instantly overjoyed.
However, the nobles were dumbfounded on the spot!
They had received accurate news.
There was no grain in the granary.
Why were there so many of them now?
Could it be that the news was wrong?
This time, the nobles panicked!
They still couldn't believe it, so they jogged to the other granaries.
However…
Every granary was basically filled with food.
There was no sign of an empty warehouse at all.
This time.
Many nobles collapsed to the ground, their faces pale.
"What happened? Didn't they say that there was no food? Why was every granary so rich?”
"I don't know. That's what I heard. Why…why is it like this?”
"Alright, stop talking. Hurry up and go back and sell the food!”
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll be leaving first. Goodbye, everyone!”
The dignitaries were in a mess, forming a sharp contrast with their previous leisurely attitude.
At this moment, they wished they could fly back immediately and empty all the food they had stored.
Now that the Great Tang was so rich in grain, it was difficult for them to sell the grain at a high price!
Moreover, even if the price was low, no one would buy it, let alone a high price.
In addition, food had a shelf life. Their top priority now was naturally to sell it quickly.
Soon, the price of grain in Chang 'an fell from heaven to hell.
After Li Shi Min heard Dai Zhou's report, he was overjoyed.
At this moment.
Wei Zheng rushed into the palace and headed straight for Taiji Palace.
Li Shimin was reviewing memorials. When he heard that Wei Zheng wanted to see him, he immediately let him in.
As soon as Wei Zheng entered, he bowed to Li Shimin.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Get up, Minister Wei. You came to find me because of the granary, right?”
Li Shi Min put down his pen and smiled.
When Wei Zheng heard this, he nodded."That's right, Your Majesty. Aren't we out of food? Why are there suddenly so many?"
"We already have it, so what's there to be surprised about?”Li Shi Min continued to smile without a change in his expression.
At this moment, Wei Zheng was even more confused.
The Great Tang's national treasury was at most forty million catties of grain, so wasn't this ninety million catties a little too outrageous?
"Your Majesty, there are no outsiders here. Don't fool me.”
Wei Zhengyou said with an ugly expression. Li Shimin was still trying to fool him at this point.
Hearing Wei Zheng's words, Li Shimin laughed out loud,""Minister Wei, I still can't hide it from you.”
"Actually, this time, there wasn't that much grain in the granary, but Fang Yi 'ai asked zhen to fill up a few of the granaries first.”
"For the remaining granaries, lay stones at the bottom and put real grain on top. This way, it will appear in front of everyone's eyes and the granary will be rich.”
After Li Shimin finished speaking, Wei Zheng was stunned.
When Wei Zheng reacted, he wanted to shout,"God!"”
"Your Majesty, Fangxian Nan is indeed…a god!”Wei Zheng exclaimed.
His eyes were filled with excitement.
This matter had troubled him for a few days.
He had been thinking about how to resolve this crisis.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a servant report that His Majesty had opened the granary to inspect the grain. It was a total of more than 90 million catties.
These words immediately frightened Wei Zheng.
Where did Li Shi Min get so much food?
That was why he had rushed to Taiji Palace.
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Wei Zheng finally understood.
He was completely convinced!
"This Emperor's Fuma has never been an ordinary person!”Li Shi Min said proudly.
At the same time, he sighed in his heart, Fang Yi 'ai was really too smart.
A small scheme could resolve the problems of the Imperial Court.
However, it would be a pity to let a talented person like Fang Yi 'ai manage a small Wannian County.
If there was a chance in the future, he would definitely recruit him into the imperial court.
Only then would he be worthy of Fang Yiai's talent!
