Ever-normal granary price stabilisation
About this model
Guanzi, Li Kui, Geng Shouchang, c. 4th–1st century BCE. Harvests swing between plenty and dearth; the state buys grain when the price is low and sells from its granary when the price is high, damping the price farmers and townsfolk face. A teaching model: it keeps only this core loop and leaves out everything else a real economy has.
