The government's disaster relief process in the previous life was a very systematic, complex and comprehensive matter, but he only knew some one-sided things, so he planned this way - to ensure that more people survived until the government's relief was in place.

Those follow-up disaster relief will naturally be managed by officials.

Xiao Ren didn't intend to go into an official career, but just in case of emergency, these things are enough.

These people have fled here, and they have clothes to cover their bodies, and they can also use the water from those wells, streams, and rivers.

What I need most is food,

Xiao Ren planned to buy some rice to feed these victims, so as to temporarily pass this difficult time.

Of course, he never thought of being a character who was taken advantage of and made everyone have enough to eat.

Even with all his current wealth, he couldn't afford it for a day.

He planned to go to the grain store to buy some rice, and then let someone cook it into porridge.

Xiao Ren knocked on the door of the grain store.

The grain store had already closed, and the person who answered the door was a displeased guy.

That guy was very good at judging people, and when he saw that Xiao Ren and Mo Yuxin were strong and not wearing weapons, he knew that they were not easy to provoke.

So he asked politely: "You two young masters, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Ren didn't answer, but walked past him into the grain store, sat on a chair very bluntly, and said, "Ask your managers to come out. Just say that there is a big deal to take care of you now."

"Oh?" The man was very puzzled, not knowing what kind of big business the grain store could have.

So, the clerk politely asked the two to sit down for a while.He went inside and invited the manager out.

These ancient storefronts were all facing the street, but there was a back door inside, and most of the back doors were warehouses or places where the store owners lived.

There are also some owners who don't live here and have other residences, and there will be stewards in the store who can manage things.

At this time, the shopkeeper of this store came out from inside.

As soon as he came out, he bowed his hands to Xiao Ren and Mo Yuxin, "You two young masters, come here at this time, do you have any big business to take care of the trumpet?"

Xiao Ren stood up and said, "Bring out all the food from your store, I'll take care of it, man!"

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper was shocked instead of happy, his smile froze on his face, and he said: "My lord, stop joking."

Xiao Ren looked at him strangely, and said, "Of course I'm not joking, it's true."

The shopkeeper's face suddenly turned cold, obviously thinking that Xiao Ren was here to find fault, "Do you know how many stone rice I have in my account?"

Xiao Ren looked at him in a daze, and shook his head sincerely.

The shopkeeper choked, and he sneered and said, "I have 170 shi of rice in my shop, can you afford it?"

Xiao Ren was really at a loss now.

How many catties is 170 shi.

"Wait!" A gust of wind came out of Xiao Ren's palm, and he stopped in front of the shopkeeper who was about to drive away, signaling him to wait.

The shopkeeper was stunned by the palm, and was immediately overwhelmed by the unintentional force, and stood there silent.

Mo Yuxin didn't know what he was going to do, but she just stood beside him and stared at the shopkeeper, warning him not to act rashly.

The shopkeeper didn't dare to act rashly anymore.

Ordinary people are most afraid of this kind of kung fu.

It's okay to be reasonable and kind. If you meet such a reckless guy who starts to fight at the slightest disagreement, these Jianghu people will leave after beating, leaving the people who still want to live in the local area to suffer in vain.

At this time, Xiao Ren was still thinking hard about how much 170 Shimi would be converted into.

In the first few months of his arrival, he deliberately memorized these daily measurement units, and finally he hasn't forgotten them yet.It's just that it is quite laborious to convert it into data that he can understand now in a short period of time.

"One stone of rice equals ten buckets of rice equals one hundred liters of rice equals 150 catties..." Xiao Ren lowered his head and gestured his fingers seriously.

Three black lines silently hung down on Mo Yuxin's forehead.

"... 170 shimi is equal to... [-] jin..." Xiao Ren's eyes widened in surprise.

He turned his head and said to the shopkeeper: "I'm afraid you will be missing, Miduo is the best!"

Xiao Ren took out those unused bank notes from his pocket, slapped them on the table majesticly, and said to the shopkeeper, "All of them!"

The shopkeeper looked down and saw stacks of banknotes with large denominations in front of him, and his heart trembled.

He hurriedly put on a smiling face: "Since that's the case, the little ones will do it for you immediately."

He turned around and called out to the guys around him, telling him to wake up the rest of the employees and start working.

"Thanks to your patronage, the total is 700 taels. Where can I ask the guys to deliver it to you?" The shopkeeper asked with a charming smile.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ren yelled: "What?! One thousand and seven hundred taels?! You want ten taels of silver for a stone of rice! Why don't you go grab it?"

The shopkeeper forced a few steps back with a smile, twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Isn't a stone of rice worth ten taels of silver?"

"Do you think I don't know that the current price of rice is twenty-five cents per stone?" Xiao Ren narrowed his eyes dangerously, looking at this profiteer who dared to blatantly fool him in front of him.

"Two taels and five cents is the price five days ago!" The shopkeeper looked at Xiao Ren's entire aura, which suddenly became weaker.

"It has risen so much in only five days?" Xiao Ren looked at him in disbelief.

The shopkeeper looked at the aggressive Xiao Ren, and said cautiously: "The price has risen sharply because of the recent disasters in counties and counties near the Yangtze River. Don't even think about it, there are only so many in these lands." If there are several times more people coming out of thin air, the price of food will naturally rise.”

"Nonsense!" Xiao Ren looked at the shopkeeper with a sneer and said, "Even if the price increases, it's impossible to raise it to ten taels of silver. Five taels is as high as the sky."

The shopkeeper said: "Once there is a flood, the fields in those counties will basically lose their harvest, and there will be no harvest for the next year. Now these grains have to feed several times the number of people until the next year's grain. Or, this price is true. It makes sense."

Xiao Ren saw that the shopkeeper's words were plausible and reasonable, but he still felt that something was wrong.

Although he was a gangster before, but now he is a young hero of the righteous way. It is not easy to go too far, harm the interests of ordinary people, and pay for his actions.

He said with a sullen face: "You'd better not lie to me. If you let me know what tricks you used, be careful of your head."

Xiao Ren's threat made the shopkeeper break out in a cold sweat.

He asked the shopkeeper to prepare the grain, and the next day he asked someone to take it away. After giving these orders and paying for the goods, Xiao Ren and Mo Yuxin left the grain shop.

Xiao Ren frowned and thought while walking, Mo Yuxin asked: "Brother Xiao, what are you going to do?"

Mo Yuxin was obviously asking him what he planned to do with the food.

There are two of them, and [-] catties of grain is not a small amount.

"I have my own plan." Speaking of this, Xiao Ren was shocked.

As early as when he was staying at the hotel, he noticed the Xiangyun logo on the inn, and knew that this inn belonged to the sphere of influence of the Kuntian Gang.

Speaking of the business scope of the Kuntian Gang, it is quite all-encompassing.

As long as you give money, you can do anything.

So, Xiao Ren went back to the inn, found the innkeeper, and offered 100 taels directly, asking the innkeeper to send out two smart and capable people to serve him for a few days.

The second shopkeeper did not disappoint him either, he took the banknote and called two of his subordinates to follow Xiao Ren's orders.

Xiao Ren quickly asked these two people to find some coachmen and pull carts for him, and go to the grain store early tomorrow morning to load him with grain and transport it to the county seat.

Seeing that he had made arrangements properly, Mo Yuxin was relieved. The two said goodbye and went back to their rooms to rest.

Xiao Ren returned to his room and rolled on the bed.

He really didn't expect food to be so expensive now.

Not to mention the silver bills on his body now, even if the gold leaves and scattered silver he got before are added, it is just a drop in the bucket.

This is not in line with his purpose.

"These profiteers! Profiteers!" Xiao Ren scratched the wall angrily.

"What are you worrying about?" Yu Wenjue appeared from the Department of Biology again.

"You're here." Xiao Ren glanced at him listlessly.

Mao Tuan was not with Yu Wenjue.So he asked, "Where is my daughter?"

"Miss Mao Tuan went out to hunt for food." Yu Wenjue said darkly and naturally.

As for the intentional failure to feed the owl, he would not tell Jin.

The furball was sent out to hunt, and now it was just the two of them.

Yu Wenjue sat beside Xiao Ren, looking at the messy hair on his head, he really wanted to give it to Shun Shun.

Why do I always have this urge to do things to Ah Ren lately?

Yu Wenjue suppressed it secretly.

"Do you think it's normal for the price of grain to rise to ten taels per shimi?" Xiao Ren asked Yu Wenjue seriously.

No matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was something wrong with what the shopkeeper said, but he just couldn't figure it out.

Mo Yuxin was a guy who was even more at a loss than him, even if Xiao Ren asked him to discuss it, he couldn't figure out why.

So seeing Ah Jue coming, Xiao Ren asked directly.

Yu Wen never answered his question directly, but asked him everything he did today.

After Xiao Ren finished speaking, Yu Wenjue pondered for a while and said, "Obviously the shopkeeper didn't tell the truth, he lied to you."

"Is that really the case?" Xiao Ren believed Yu Wenjue's words almost without doubt, and he thumped the pillow, "This guy is really dishonest! He dared to trick me!"

"In business, it's normal to conceal some interests, but that's not the only thing he lied to you." Yu Wenjue said calmly, "There is only one grain store in this small town, if the 170 shimi belong to them Store food, then you buy them all, then the townspeople in this small town will not have to eat for a while."

Xiao Ren suddenly realized, and said that he always felt that something was wrong.

It is still due to the incomplete grasp of this information society.

"So, there is still food in his store." Xiao Ren said with certainty.

"Yes." Yu Wenjue nodded, "He is waiting."

"Are you waiting to raise the price again?" Xiao Ren frowned.

"Yes, and..." Yu Wenjue turned his head to look at Xiao Ren's face who was very close to him, slightly dazed, then he blinked and said, "He's just a minion, not a decision maker."

Xiao Ren looked at Yu Wenjue who was seriously analyzing for him, and was particularly touched by his patience.

"Going up the price of rice cannot be controlled by a grain store, so there are other people behind it." Yu Wenjue finally concluded.

"It's disgusting!" Xiao Ren gritted his teeth.

If it weren't for these unscrupulous grain tyrants, those victims who fled in a hurry would not have to sell their children, or even sell themselves.

After all, some of them came out with money.

The money may not be much, but it is enough for them to survive this difficult time.

"No! This matter can't be left alone!" Xiao Ren said angrily.

Xiao Ren, who has never had much experience in IQ since he came to this world, was very unwilling to be played around by the shopkeeper.

"Well, he dared to lie to you, this person really deserves to be killed!" A fierce light flashed in Yu Wenjue's eyes.

"Huh?" Xiao Ren looked at him in surprise.

He wasn't surprised because Yu Wenjue said he was going to kill someone, but he was wondering if Ah Jue would kill the shopkeeper for this reason, whether the law of heaven would depend on him.

Xiao Ren thought for a while, and decided not to challenge the lower limit of the Dao of Heaven.

He said: "I think it's too cheap to kill the shopkeeper. They should bankrupt their plan. The people behind him are hateful."

Yu Wenjue frowned and thought for a while, and said, "It's not difficult to investigate and deal with the person behind it. As long as you read his account book, you will know the relationship behind this grain store."

"Oh~~~" Xiao Ren looked at Yu Wenjue in admiration.

Although he is good at arranging some plans and strategies, but if he really wants to talk about such professional things, Xiao Ren will be blinded.

At this moment, he looked at Yu Wenjue with admiration.

This look directly made Yu Wenjue dizzy, and he didn't even remember what Xiao Ren said to him afterwards.

So when he came back to his senses, the two of them were already standing in the grain store, and Xiao Ren graciously handed him the ledger that had been dug out.

"..." Yu Wenjue was speechless.

He looked at Xiao Ren's expectant look, how could he be disappointed, so he had to take it.

"Wuyuan County...Zhujiazhuang..." Yu Wenjue checked these ledgers one by one, and finally found a clue.

"Wuyuan County?" Xiao Ren tilted his head and moved closer.

As soon as his hot breath approached, Yuwen was determined to jump like thunder, and his face actually started to heat up.

"Is Wuyuan County the county in the east?" Xiao Renjian Yuwen never answered, and looked up at him strangely.

Under the dim light of only one lamp like beans, Yu Wenjue's blood-red eyes looked extraordinarily bewitching and seductive. This time Xiao Ren seemed to be attracted, his eyes met him, and for a moment Forget everything.

They didn't know how long they stared at each other silently, until the sound of the clapper being hit by the watchman came, the two of them felt as if the spell had been broken, and turned their eyes away uncomfortably.

"It's amazing..." Xiao Ren laughed dryly, "Is this also the result of your practice?"

"Huh?" Yu Wenjue naturally knew what he was talking about, obviously not, but this was even weirder, and he said vaguely with him: "Probably..."

"Then what... Wuyuan County, right?" Xiao Ren put the ledgers together and put them back in their original place, "Then let's go to Wuyuan County."

"Now?" Yu Wenjue was taken aback.

"Yes, it's now." Xiao Ren said.
