524 Cooperation 2
Qin Zicheng and Feng Wuyao were both ready to fight against the drought for a long time, so even though they had a lot of supplies on hand, they still asked Duan Liu and Xing Dahu to buy food and some fruits and vegetables everywhere.
Just as Feng Wuyao did before, they went directly to the village to acquire it.
With a carriage, you can get the silver goods directly.
The Seventh Prince and his men wanted to use the price of grain to control the lifeline of Yuzhou. Unfortunately, they made the wrong plan.
As early as the grain prices began to rise, Qin Zicheng ordered the food prepared earlier to be released.
There are four places in Yuzhou City. The rice price is the normal price on the market, but there is a limit, and each person purchases each time is subject to regulations. This is also to prevent some people from making trouble.
All counties below have also implemented this method.
In this way, those grain merchants who want to raise prices have to lower the prices.
Some vendors who bought grain at high prices naturally lost a lot of land this time.
But if they refuse to follow the market price, they will only lose more.
Qin Zicheng also asked someone to post a notice outside, saying that their Yuzhou government's granary was sufficient and that they would not make the people worry too much.
The food prices have stabilized and the water source has been temporarily alleviated, so Yuzhou City will naturally be in chaos.
Of course, in some remote small villages, due to difficulties in using water, they still have to pull their cars to a place dozens of miles away to get water.
Although it has been a little harder, I can have enough food.
With water and food, the people will not have the intention of making trouble.
What's more, Qin Zicheng has someone who supports the digging of canals, but the rewards are not counted. After the ditches are opened, they will give them a separate reward.
Qin Zicheng and the prefect of Fancheng finally reached an agreement.
The people of Fancheng need to dig canals in Fancheng, because after the water is attracted, they will eventually flow into Fanhe.
Qin Zicheng promised to give porridge to the people of Fancheng for three days, then let them return to their hometowns, and then obey the dispatch of local officials.
Of course, the most important thing is that Qin Zicheng agreed to the prefect of Fancheng and first lend him ten trucks of food for emergency response and wait for another day.
Three days later, there was indeed no one outside Yuzhou City.
At this time, a convoy also walked out of Yuzhou City and headed straight to Fancheng Prefect's Mansion.
The prefect of Fancheng was also a person who wanted to do something practical. The people were excited before and wanted to go to Yuzhou to make a living, but he had no choice.
If they were stopped, those people would have to die. After all, Fancheng's granary was not that sufficient.
But if you don't stop it, you will offend the Fourth Prince.
Therefore, when the people make trouble, he feels uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, the Fourth Prince had thought of a good way.
Although the ten trucks of food are not much, they can at least make him respond to an emergency and let the people see some hope.
Later, people were sent to start dispatching people to dig canals, and anyone who participated could eat two meals a day.
This is what he can do the most for the people.
Feng Zhihan was not polite at the house, and also sent some people to cooperate with the prefect to control the situation and assist these people in digging the canal.
When the prefect saw Feng Zhihan bringing people in person, he could be said to have tears in his eyes.
Too bitter!
It's too hard for everyone to live.
There is only Fanhe and water in Fancheng now, but because of constant disputes among the people, there are frequent fights of water grabbing.
Chapter completed!
