Li Zhi looked at the prime ministers present, and his eyes stayed on Li Ji for a while.
"Your Majesty, Jia Ping'an is here."
Jia Pingan came in disgrace, Li Zhi felt happy, and immediately thought of Xu Jingzong's words, he said in a deep voice: "I ask you, if you check the prices in Chang'an every day, you can find out the changes in various parts of the Tang Dynasty? I also go out of the palace from time to time during the year, and I have seen those businessmen, I have seen those businessmen, but if I lie perfunctorily, I will punish them severely!"
Li Zhiqiong, who was killed by this young man, clinked. Seeing him now, it is really a new and old hatred coming together.
If you can't answer, or perfunctory, nonsense
Li Zhi grinned grimly in his heart for a moment.
"Change?" Jia Pingan glanced at Old Xu.
Old Xu looked helpless.
It wasn't that he was weak, but that he was arrested at the scene.
Jia Pingan understood, he thought for a while, "Your Majesty, the center of the Tang Dynasty is Chang'an, there is no doubt about that."
Li Zhi nodded.
The capital is the center, the core, and every dynasty and generation is like this.
"Businessmen communicate with each other, and go wherever there is money to be made. Their eyes are sharper than officials, and they can endure hardships more than officials."
It is unimaginable that some businessmen in the previous life worked so hard when they started their businesses.
"So what?" Yu Zhining said in a deep voice, "Get to the point."
Jia Pingan took a look at this sloppy prime minister, "The best place to make money in the entire Tang Dynasty is Chang'an City. All businessmen in the world are proud to do business in Chang'an City. But all the goods in the world gather in Chang'an City. If you want to make money , you have to have an advantage. Either the price is cheap, or the goods are good”
"These goods come from all over the Tang Dynasty, such as cattle and sheep from Xiazhou, musk deer from Yazhou, wood carvings from Lingnan, and silk from Hangzhou."
Jia Pingan picked up a piece of paper, pointed to a place on it and said, "Please look here, Your Majesty."
Li Zhi glanced at it, "This is the price of Yazhou fragrant deer in Chang'an City. What do you want to say? Could this fragrant deer be able to see the movement of Yazhou?"
Jia Ping raised his head slightly, and Li Zhi returned to the time when he faced his husband in a daze.
"Your Majesty, please take a look here for Yazhou fragrant deer. At the beginning of October, the price of Yazhou fragrant deer was about 23 pennies and three hundred. However, in the middle of October, the price of Diezhou fragrant deer suddenly increased by [-] pennies and six hundred."
Fragrant deer is used to take sachets. Some people want sachets, and some like them. Yazhou supplies this thing all the year round, so the price is relatively mature.
Li Zhi snorted, "Indeed."
Jia Pingan took a look at Chu Suiliang, who had been seen by Jia Pingan when he sneered at Old Xu earlier, and Old Xu was covered by Jia Pingan, so naturally he wanted to find his way back.
"Does Mr. Chu know the mystery here?"
Sugiyoshi
The old man doesn't know anything, the old man only knows to hug the uncle's thigh.
As for the price, how could the prime minister's house be short of money, and Chu Suiliang didn't pay attention to the fragrant deer at all, so how could he know what's inside?
He laughed, "Is there any mystery in it, you can tell me."
Forget it, I'll try to slap you in the face.
Wuyang male is a fledgling, there must be someone to sacrifice the flag!
Jia Pingan said: "Yazhou is close to Diezhou, and it was the first ten days of September when Diezhou and the Tubo people fought. The merchants were the most sensitive. When they learned that Diezhou was invaded by Tubo people, they immediately stopped all business. Only the big ones will take the deer on the road. Therefore, if the deer is out of stock, the price will naturally increase. This is the market rule, and you must check it out!"
Li Ji said softly: "This is interesting. If we found out about the unexpected price increase of Yazhou musk deer, and then asked the merchants, we could get the news that there are Tibetans entering Diezhou. That's it."
He looked at Jia Pingan with piercing eyes.
this boy
He can be so knowledgeable!
Jia Pingan nodded reservedly and said: "The herdsmen on the grassland live after the grass, and the merchants pursue profit. No one can stop the merchants. Just pay attention to them, pay attention to the price and goods of their goods, and then analyze carefully. The local There is no hiding the situation.”
Years later, a country's secret service department analyzed the location of oil production based on just one photo. This is analysis.
And more analysis is even more powerful after various auxiliary conditions are perfected, so many rules have been issued, for example, the army is not allowed to take photos and upload them.
This is a science.
Chu Suiliang blurted out: "What is the proof?"
"Half a month later, Diezhou was stabilized, and the news of Tubo's defeat spread to all parties. Merchants from Yazhou came to Chang'an again, so look here!"
Jia Pingan pointed to the piece of paper and said, "Half a month later, the price of Yazhou sweet deer dropped accordingly, even lower. Why?"
He looked at Chu Suiliang.
Chu Suiliang frowned, "Zi Zi is rude!"
Xu Jingzong was aggrieved for a long time, but now he couldn't help it anymore, "Jia Ping'an is a Wuyang man!"
Why does it sound like a gigolo?
Jia Pingan finally found the reason why he was uncomfortable with this title. It turned out that his thoughts were impure.
Chu Suiliang's lips twitched, but in the end he had nothing to say.
Wu Yangnan is the beginning of the title, but with this beginning, it means that Jia Ping'an can talk to him face to face without bowing his head or dodging.
This is the greatest benefit of being knighted.
Li Zhi also wanted to know why. He looked at the paper, and the more he looked at it, the more interesting it became.
"The price dropped for half a month, and then the price returned to normal. Why?"
The status of Tang merchants is low, and the status of the business is not high, so a group of monarchs and ministers are confused when looking at these data.
But Jia Ping'an knew it all at a glance, "Your Majesty, the out-of-stock earlier caused the price to rise, and then the goods were delivered in large quantities, but the buyers would not buy them all at once. The deer is not easy to raise, so the merchants can only sell it at a lower price. The price will be lowered, and then the supply and sales of goods will be balanced, so the price will naturally stabilize.”
Li Zhi was surprised, "So it is like this."
He looked at the data again, "Sure enough, these price increases and price reductions have more goods and less goods. After careful consideration, you can actually see the quality of a place. It's really extraordinary."
Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Jia Ping'an learned from other people back then, and his skills are no less than those of his ministers! It's a pity that he was suppressed by some pious, deceitful people! It's a pity! It's a shame!"
This is a war against Chu Suiliang.
The blowing of the horn gave Li Zhi a headache.
