Food prices in Yunzhou have begun to rise.

Originally, as Yanzhou stopped buying Polygonatum odorifera, countless farmers lost all their money after a year's hard work, and Yanyun and Yunzhous began to feel gloomy. Then, Huangzhou stopped selling grain to Yanyun and Yunzhou.

You know, in the past three years, more and more people have begun to give up the corn and rice they originally cultivated, and instead cultivate the more profitable Polygonatum odorifera. As for grain, in the past few years, a large number of grain merchants came to Huangzhou and Dongzhou every year. Although selling grain is 10% more expensive than before, the wealth brought by Yuzhu is enough to cover this 10% increase, so the people eat all the grain they buy.

Those who have the habit of collecting grain are fine, but most people hope to earn more in the coming year, and use the money they save to grow polygonatum odorifera. Food is basically bought when they eat it. Now that the food channels are cut off, everyone Everyone panicked.

It's okay that no one is harvesting Yuzhu. After all, it's not a waste of money since it was earned in the previous two years, but not having food is fatal.

Of course you can eat Polygonatum odoratum, but the yield of this thing is far inferior to that of grain, and you are not very hungry. You will be hungry after a while after eating it.

The Guiyi Church has only been in charge of Yunzhou for more than ten years, and Yanzhou for only more than five years. Many people still remember the feeling of famine more than ten years ago. For a time, the grain stores in the market closed down, and the remaining grain stores began to keep rising. price.

Many people began to take desperate risks and sell grain at high prices.

Although there is a risk of beheading, one cannot resist the temptation of benefits, especially at the junction with Huangzhou and Dongzhou. Traveling for more than ten miles to transport grain back, you can resell it at double or even triple the price. .

Huangzhou, Yangquan City.

"Brother!" Cui Ping rushed in excitedly and smiled at Cui Yan: "Guiyi Sect has agreed to allow our grain merchants to enter Yanyun Prefecture, and will not limit the grain merchants' prices. They also want to buy directly from us. A batch of food."

"There is no need to buy grain. After all, we have sold grain every year in the past few years and there is not much grain. If you really want grain, just go to those grain merchants." Cui Yan held the wine glass and looked at the distant Yunzhou direction, with a smile on his lips: "Inform the border defense generals everywhere to be careful about Lu Xuan jumping over the wall. This person has good fighting skills."

"Lord, one moment and another, now the people in Yanyun and Yunzhou are in panic, and the soldiers in the army may not be interested in fighting!" the counselor said with a smile.

"Isn't that just right? It would be more reasonable for our army to invade Yunzhou." Cui Yan smiled and said: "The Cui family is a benevolent family after all. Even if we send out troops, we must pay attention to the teacher's reputation!"

"What the Lord said is true!"

Following Cui Yan's order, a large number of grain merchants began to enter the land of Yanyun, preparing to enjoy this harvest carnival.

One month later, Sanyang County.

"Leader, all their food and grass have been brought in." Sandao came to Lu Xuan and bowed.

Lu Xuan nodded, smiled at Li Xingzhi and said, "Senior brother, it's up to you."

Li Xingzhi nodded, opened the water detector at the same time and said: "Start releasing food everywhere!"

The speed of news transmission on Lu Xuan's side was obviously faster than that on Cui Yan's side. With the help of Shui Jian, the news was spread to all counties in just a few moments.

The county magistrates who had been preparing for a long time immediately ordered people to transport the grain and grass that had been stored outside the city into the city. At the same time, they posted notices to announce to the people in the county that the leader had borrowed a large amount of grain and grass. From today on, the government directly Grain shops sell unlimited amounts of grain, and grain prices are the same as in the past.

When the people heard this, they were naturally overjoyed. The fortunes that had dropped significantly in various places quickly rebounded on this day, even exceeding the original fortunes.

As counties began to provide unlimited grain supplies, after the grain buying craze of the past few days, the people who calmed down saw that the government could indeed buy grain at a fair price. The tension disappeared and the craze also cooled down.

However, at this moment, something happened in all the counties in the two states. A certain grain truck suddenly overturned during transportation. However, what poured out of the grain truck was not grain, but sediment!

Although the people transporting grain around quickly cleared up, the local grain merchants who came to sell grain were still aware of it. The grain merchants who had already started selling grain at low prices were overjoyed and closed their doors one after another. They quickly spread the news and the grain buying craze resumed. rise.

However, the government continued to release unlimited amounts of grain. The grain merchants just sneered, waiting to see the Guiyi Sect's joke, and even sent people to secretly buy the grain sold by the government in order to speed up the government's food consumption.

However... ten days have passed, and the yamen is still distributing grain as usual, and the rush to buy grain has slowed down again.

However, the grain merchants also received messages from their friends one after another. When they found that similar things had been sent to all the surrounding cities, the grain merchants finally knew that they had been tricked.

Looking at the mountains of grain piled up in their warehouses, the grain merchants were on the verge of tears and could only sell grain at a fair price. However, the people's grain buying craze has passed for two rounds, and now the demand for grain is not that heavy, and grain Preservation requires costs, and it will go bad if you are not careful.

Grain merchants could only endure the pain and start selling grain at low prices.

"These traders have come all the way here to help your sect tide over the difficulties. If the sect leader does this, isn't it a breach of trust by all the traders in the world? With such betrayal, it may be difficult for you and I to cooperate in the future!" Sanyang County Assembly Hall, from Huang The state's envoy looked at Lu Xuan with an ugly expression. He knew that this time his lord's plan had completely failed.

"What Mr. Jia said is wrong." Li Xingzhi smiled and said: "First of all, these grain merchants came all the way not to help me teach, but to drink the blood of my Guiyi Sect. Secondly, if these grain merchants really have faith, I will not suffer such a big loss. As for betrayal, when did my leader betray his promise? Which of the conditions I agreed to you failed to comply with? You said that we cannot limit the prices of grain merchants based on the laws of Yanyun and Yunzhou. Our religion has no restrictions. , these grain merchants are pricing a thousand taels of gold and one tael of grain, and I have absolutely no objection."

"It's just sophistry! With your sect's behavior, I'm afraid..." The messenger snorted coldly and wanted to say something harsh, but was interrupted by Lu Xuan.

"I don't speak. I just feel that you are not qualified to talk to me." Lu Xuan looked at the messenger and said, "I don't have the habit of killing messengers, but the premise is that your mouth can be cleaner. Don't be unruly in front of me. One thing, you don’t think… I’m a good person, do you?”

The messenger looked at Lu Xuan, his lips moved twice, but the words that came to his mouth were not uttered.

"Whether Cui Yan is a nobleman from Tianhuang or a young master from an aristocratic family, he has nothing to do with me. Since he is out to conquer the world, he must admit defeat and stand upright when he is beaten. If his skills are not as good as others, don't come here shamelessly to raise an army to accuse me. Be careful with me. Ask him about his crime!" Lu Xuan waved his hand: "You can get out, I see you are a little upset!"

"Farewell!" The messenger grunted, turned around and left, but was stopped by two guards.

"Leader, what does this mean?" The messenger turned to look at Lu Xuan.

"How come you can't even understand people's words? What I just said was...get out!" Lu Xuan looked at the messenger and smiled.

"The leader is so humiliated. Aren't you afraid that my lord will raise an army to attack you!?" the messenger said angrily.

"Didn't he want to be famous as a disciple? I gave him this name, and I wronged you." Lu Xuan smiled and said, "Do you need someone to help you?"

The envoy looked at the aggressive guards on both sides, took a deep breath, as if to prove his backbone, and shouted to Lu Xuan: "Get out!"

Seeing the envoy who really got out, everyone in the meeting hall couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"As expected of a scholar, he has the backbone... Well, Fourth Junior Brother, I'm not talking about you!" Huo Zhan said with a grin. But halfway through his words, he felt Li Xingzhi's cold gaze and immediately suppressed his smile.

"The leader wants to wait for Huangzhou to fight?" Yang Ao said something to calm the atmosphere.

"I definitely want to be famous as a teacher, but the old Cui family is afraid that they have too much time to take care of themselves. I guess they won't be able to fight. Let's find another reason. The Cui family detained my Guiyi religion merchant for no reason. It is a blatant breach of contract and goes against morality. I will return to the Yijia religion." Send troops to get an explanation." Lu Xuan thought, although he used to fight with his buttocks bare, but now his status is different, so he might as well pull off his pants.

"The teacher has a reputation." Li Xingzhi smiled and said: "When the envoy returns, Cui Yan will probably be uneasy."

"Junior brother, why is this?" Huo Zhan quickly complimented him to repair the precarious friendship between the two.

"A wise man must be suspicious. I can know what he says casually, and he will naturally doubt the people around him." Lu Xuan said with a smile.

"Wise men are suspicious? Then you..." Zhang Yuanrou looked at Lu Xuan.

"This is the biggest difference between the leader and Cui Yan. The leader has a broad mind and doesn't worry about everything, so there is no need to be suspicious." Li Xingzhi said with a smile.

"Isn't it just that you don't care about anything?" Zhang Yuanrou glanced at Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan was just as hands-off and delegating power to talents as he was to women. But the more he did this, the more willing everyone was to hang around him. The fourth senior brother was such a spoiled brat. The level is rising.

"Those who want to catch everything will definitely be unable to catch anything in the end." Lu Xuan smiled and said: "Not to mention this, senior sister, have you done what I want?"

"Five million Broken Gang Arrows are not enough in one month. I have been working day and night and have just reached one million." Zhang Yuanrou collapsed immediately: "I have reached the limit here. Where did you get so much iron? ?”

"It's a gift from the Cui family." Lu Xuan sighed: "Then we will add two more production lines. The one million will be sent to the Pioneer Camp first. We can't wait there. The follow-up army will send it to the front line while doing it."

"We need to add more people to our Shenji Hall. We have to find at least 300 more craftsmen for me. My people have not rested for almost a month. The craftsmen can still take a breather, but they can't. Let alone Qi training, the foundation building period It can’t be used like this!” Zhang Yuanrou said with a bitter face: “Also, if they do this, it can’t be justified without giving them more spiritual stones.”

Lu Xuan nodded and said: "Three hundred craftsmen are no problem. As for spiritual stones, during this rush period, their spiritual stone quota will be ten times! As long as they can catch up with the progress, after this battle is over, regardless of the outcome, each person will receive an additional Reward one hundred spirit stones!"

"Great!" Zhang Yuanrou nodded with satisfaction.

"Everyone, the first half of this scene has ended, and the second half has begun. It's time for us to officially appear. According to the previous plan, we should return to our places!" Lu Xuan stood up and said.

"As ordered!"
