"the civilian girl answered the Liu family's business first."

Liu Sichun is neither humble nor arrogant, and her logical thinking is very clear. she replied, "on the whole, everything is within expectations. Although there are some minor changes, the Liu family can solve it. Recently, the business of the bank has obviously begun to grow. People's trust in the bank has gradually deepened, and people have begun to deposit their money in the bank one after another."

"in addition, the soap business has begun to be promoted and is selling very well."

"what is surprising is that some remote places are reluctant to let banks enter, but after receiving the promise of large quantities of soap supply, local merchants are relieved, which shows that wealth is moving and the truth is immutable."

Li Chen nodded, feeling even better, and said, "the Ministry of Household has reported all these things, but it is better to listen to you in detail. Very good, I believe you correctly."

Liu Sichun smiled and said, "thanks to your Highness."

Li Chen glanced at Liu Sichun. Her healthy cheeks were ruddy and ruddy, especially her spirit from the inside out, which was unforgettable and impressive.

"even you have learned to flatter yourself."

after making a casual remark, Li Chen said, "what about the market situation of general prices"

without thinking about it, Liu Sichun replied, "prices are soaring and people's livelihood is poor."

these eight words solidify the smile on Li Chen's face, while the following sentence makes Zheng Baorong's face green.

"especially in the capital region, prices change twice a day, making them miserable."

Li Chen glanced at Zheng Baorong indifferently, and without waiting to speak, there was a sudden noise at the door of the rice bank, which was already visible in front of him.

"in the morning, one kilo of rice is only seven cents. Why do you need eight cents in the afternoon" Where does your rice shop do business like this "

the person who said this was an ordinary woman, holding a bamboo basket, her eyes flushed with abuse.

the clerk of the rice shop stood in the doorway and sneered, "who doesn't know that the price of rice is rising sharply now" You don't buy things in the morning, but that's the price in the afternoon. Do you want it or not If you can't afford it, get out of here. Why are you so poor If you can't afford rice, dig up wild vegetables. You're used to it! "

the woman trembled with anger, and most of the onlookers were denouncing Mi Xing for being unscrupulous. It was obvious that they had all been victims.

Li Chen turned directly over Zheng Baorong and asked Liu Sichun, "how much is the general price of rice"

Liu Sichun immediately replied, "before the natural disaster, one or two silver coins in the normal market could buy two stones of rice. If it was last year's old rice, you could send another 500 jin. During the natural disaster, it rose to a maximum of one or two silver and a half stone rice. At the beginning of this year, it gradually stabilized, about one or two silver and a stone and a half."

Silver was legal tender in the Qin Empire.

A silver or two equals a thousand copper coins.

the average family's annual income is about five taels of silver.

and one stone is less than two hundred jin.

this price is relatively normal.

but now a kilo of rice has risen to eight cents, which is equivalent to an increase of more than 60% in the price of rice.

Li Chen gave Zheng Baorong an indifferent glance, but without paying attention to the bitter face of him, he started through the crowd and asked the man, "this little brother, there is always a rule in the market. It is normal for prices to fluctuate with market fluctuations, but it is unreasonable for prices to rise again in the morning and afternoon, right"

the guy glanced at Li Chen and saw that Li Chen was well dressed, and the several people behind him were also immortal and beautiful, and the men were equally immortal, so although he was impatient, he still said, "the market is not like ours. The whole capital area is the same. It's no use for you to talk to a fellow like me, and you can tell our shopkeeper if you can."ally thought so, had a real smile on his face. In a tone of his own understanding, Li Yinhu said, "Sir rest assured that although Xiao Wang has no ability and achievements, he most respects a man of i...
