Therefore, at this time, Ying Zheng was really heartbroken.How could such a talent be so foolish?

Of course, Ying Zheng didn't really believe that Li Yang would collude with businessmen, because no matter how much money he had, it was impossible to compare with Prime Minister Zhong, who was under one man and over ten thousand people.

Everyone also heard from the emperor's words that if Li Yang really ran out of the treasury, the emperor would no longer protect him, and Li Yang would definitely die!

Of course, Li Yang also understood that the emperor was worried for him.

I couldn't help being moved in my heart, looked up at Ying Zheng with firm eyes, and said confidently: "Your Majesty trusts the minister, and entrusts the minister with full responsibility for the quelling of the chaos. The minister will never betray your majesty's trust, not in the past, and will not in the future." , this time too. If your majesty is worried, you might as well move to the National Development and Reform Bureau and go to see the bidding conference there with your own eyes. If the facts are not in line with your guess, I am willing to accept the crime of depleting the national treasury!"

Looking at Li Yang's firm gaze, although Ying Zheng wanted to believe him, but...

Thinking of believing that businessmen will not take advantage of disasters to make money, that businessmen will know how to love the country and the people, and that businessmen will no longer be mercenary...

Ying Zheng wouldn't believe it even if he was killed.

Of course, if Yingzheng believed in the merchants, he would not have forced 12 wealthy merchants from the six countries to move into Xianyang City. The purpose was actually to make it easier to monitor those merchants.

Therefore, he felt very regretful, regretting that he had handed over the matter of calming the chaos to Li Yang a few days ago.

At this point, Ying Zheng had no choice but to sigh and said, "Okay, move to the Development and Reform Bureau. If you make a mistake, I will never forgive you lightly!"

In order not to attract attention and affect the progress of the bidding conference, Yingzheng changed into casual clothes, and even asked the ministers to take off their court clothes before rushing to the Development and Reform Office...

Meanwhile, at NDRC.

There are three conference halls in the Development and Reform Agency, all of which are conducting bidding meetings at this time.

At this time, the bidding for the project of six tenders has ended.

Li Si was very worried about the high price of this project bidding. To be honest, in order to support Li Yang this time, he was even ready to lose his position and quit his title.

However, after six bidding rounds, his heart, which was hanging in the air, finally fell to the ground.

What Li Yang said was correct, as long as there are enough businessmen attracted by the project bidding, these businessmen will compete with each other in order to get the project, and as long as there is still profit, they will not be willing to return empty-handed.

Therefore, after the completion of the six projects, not only the contracting price of the project was reduced to a reasonable level, but also in order to win the project, the businessman also promised a lot of very good promises.

For example, when the price falls to a reasonable level, although businessmen no longer compete on price, they will use other conditions to compete for the chance to win the bid.

For this reason, some businessmen promised to hire [-] disaster victims, while others promised to hire [-] disaster victims...

In short, it is to do everything possible to win the project as much as possible.

This really surprised Li Si, and at the same time, he was extremely moved, and he admired Li Yang again.

It is not possible for ordinary people to completely solve the famine problem through project bidding, and to allow businessmen to actively participate in it.

At this time, a new round of bidding conferences started in the three venues.

Two Great Wall projects and one Qinling project.

The three conference halls were full of businessmen who signed up for bidding.

Because this time the Great Wall, Qinling, and Efang only released more than 100 projects in total, so for the 12 rich merchants in Xianyang City, it is obvious that there are too many monks and few meat. Intense, as one can imagine.

At the same time, wearing casual clothes, Ying Zheng also brought a group of ministers to the Development and Reform Office, and quietly walked into one of the meeting rooms.

The meeting hall, which had already gathered nearly 200 people, was crowded into a group of ministers and ministers at this time, and the whole meeting hall was overcrowded.

Looking at the bidding venue, where so many businessmen gathered, Ying Zheng shook his head and smiled wryly, feeling contemptuous in his heart.

The scene in front of me is like dogs smelling feces, and they all flock to the Development and Reform Department, wanting to grab a bite.

Hey, Li Yang is such a prodigal!

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng sighed in his heart.

"Everyone be quiet!"

At this time, the chief official who presided over the bidding stretched out his hands on the stage to show everyone to be quiet.

After the conference hall quieted down, he introduced: "This bidding project is the seventh section of the Great Wall, located in Guyang County, with a total length of 120 kilometers and a bidding price of [-] million gold."

When everyone heard this, they were extremely excited and eager to try.

Of course, when Ying Zheng and a group of ministers and ministers heard this, they all cried out.

All the civil and military ministers also booed each other.

120 million gold, this price is fully double the normal cost!

At this time, someone had already sneered in their hearts, and they were waiting to see Li Yang's big joke.

Yingzheng is also extremely frustrated, this is all the money and grain of the Great Qin State Treasury.

At this time, he really held back his anger, just waiting to see what the outcome of this bidding would be.

As long as the transaction price of the bidding is too high, he will punish Li Yang immediately, and at the same time issue an order to suspend the bidding.

"The specific project acceptance criteria are detailed in the responsibility letter of the project contract in your hands. In a word, those who cut corners will be killed without mercy!"

After the chief official finished speaking loudly, the chief official struck the hammer and announced: "The bidding begins now!"

"Xianyang Wang's Salt Shop, 110 million gold!"

"Xianyang Liu's Tea Shop, 100 million gold!"

"I am Zhang's grain business, 90 gold!"

"My Luo family bid 80 gold!"

"........."

"Let me tell you, everyone, can you show some sincerity? This project bidding is to solve the famine problem, relieve the country's worries, and also for the common people in the world. What about your conscience? I, Li's rice line, bid 65 Wan Jin also promises to hire no less than [-] disaster victims!"

"Is your Li family amazing? Could it be that your Li family is the only one capable of solving the famine problem?"

At this time, a young man became upset, and he raised his head and said, "My Luo family offered 60 gold and promised to hire no less than 20 victims. In addition, in all the counties of Daqin, my Luo family has commercial branches. At the same time, the counties of Daqin hired disaster victims on a large scale and sent them to the construction site of the Great Wall. Moreover, as long as these young and strong laborers go to the construction site, the old and weak in their families can get money and food in advance from my Luo family's local business, which can relieve the urgent needs of the victims' families! "

The Li family was at a loss for words for a while, because his Luo family's business was mainly operated in Xianyang, and it was really impossible to do what the Luo family did.

Seeing that there was no one bidding any more at the venue, the chief officer asked three times, and finally dropped the hammer: "The seventh section of the Great Wall, the [-]-mile project of the Great Wall in Guyang County, Xianyang Luo won the bid!"

With the sound of the hammer falling, all the merchants in the meeting hall sighed again and again, with expressions of regret and disappointment on their faces...

And at the same time...

Ying Zheng and the more than 100 civil and military ministers were all stupid!
