"Forget it, let me go with you. I don't think you are very familiar with this city. Let's go together. I am still a magician more or less, and they should give me a face. [ka"" Li Cong

After thinking about it, he said, although things in this mall are freely bought and sold, these are extraordinary times. Everyone knows that the food in their hands will be very expensive if they keep it for one more day. Of course, these people are also in

Bet, if the refugees outside the city riot, not to mention converting the food into money, even their own worth may have nothing left. Li Cong, as the new Jiangning Weaving, this matter is not his at all

Within the scope of his jurisdiction, he just needed to write down the situation here in a memorial and send it to the capital. Cao Zheng also did things like this in the past, but in Li Cong's view, the time spent walking back and forth was too much.

It’s too long. People around the capital can do that, but how can they do it here? It’s been two months since I came back, so I can’t do anything anymore. Besides, I’m doing things with my own money, and it has nothing to do with the court or anything.

I don’t need to ask for instructions from above, it’s just that other people’s porridge sheds don’t have this scale, so I just need to have a larger scale.

When Wu Liu heard that Li Cong was going with him, he nodded quickly. Indeed, when the original Jiang Ningcheng went out, even some wealthy men would give him face. Of course, the face they gave him was not his.

, is the face of the Cao family, but in this new city, the Cao family has not yet risen. Although the young master has taken over the master's position, the deep-rooted relationships that the Cao family had in the past are gone, and everything needs to start from scratch.

Yes, I am not so useful as the manager of the Cao family, and no one will come to see me or the Cao family's face. In fact, at this time, the Cao family's face is far inferior to the young master's status as a magician.

Even if you are far away, your identity as a magician is still useful. On the magic robe boat, many people will make way for you when walking on the street. This has nothing to do with any family power. This is why many people respect magicians. Because they are honest

There are so many inferior ones, everyone is like a dragon or a phoenix among others.

The master and servants went out immediately. Most people in the city already knew the location of the grain store. No one thought that grain would be so important in the past. Now everyone knows. Recently,

Grain shops in the city are selling grain in limited quantities, and they are all thinking about getting rich. Just like yesterday, the price of rice was still 20 cents per catty. Today, the price is no longer what it was yesterday. It has already risen.

It has increased by 10% and reached 22 cents per pound. This kind of thing is probably going to happen tomorrow. The owners of several grain stores have already discussed it. They will raise the price every day, and they are also on the street.

A large number of people are employed to spread rumors. There is no food in the city, and the owners of the food stores are helpless. They can only sell part of it today. We will buy it when it arrives tomorrow. This is not a large amount.

Have all the people arrived at the door of the grain store?

When Li Cong and Wu Liu arrived at this street, they could no longer walk in. A large number of people came with their money bags to buy food. It seemed that this was really a serious matter. The owners of these food stores

They are all so unqualified, but from the perspective of businessmen, their approach is understandable. It is absolutely impossible to buy food like this. They will not sell the food to Li Cong, and Li Cong also

You see, they just want to make money. Unless they can pay a sky-high price, Li Cong must have given them this money in the past. After all, we don’t lack these people. But seeing how despicable and shameless they are just to make money.

At that time, I felt uncomfortable in my heart. Damn it, I am thinking about how to save the people here, and you are thinking about how to drink the blood of the people here. Let you give it a try.

"We won't buy food anymore. You guys just go back first. I'll see what's going on." Li Cong said to Bai Er and the others. Zheng Qing was still with Li Cong. Li Cong knew that he called this guy

Even if he goes back, he won't go back. There will always be someone by his side.

"Master, these grain merchants are absolutely crazy. In the morning they said 22 cents was OK, but in the afternoon it was 25 cents. How can a family bear such a burden? As far as I know, the price they paid for it was less than 12 cents.

Yes, they have doubled their profits now, and none of them want to let go." Zheng Qing got the news from several people nearby and said, these guys are so disgusting, they are going hungry.

Even though they were dead, each of these grain merchants were still dreaming about how to make a fortune. If they hadn't met Li Cong, they might actually be able to make it happen.

"What does the government do? It doesn't care about these grain merchants." Seeing the city guards maintaining order next to him, Li Cong suddenly said this, but he quickly laughed again. Since ancient times, officials and merchants have colluded. They dare to

Naturally, someone above had the tacit consent to do this.

"Master, don't you know about this? I heard that all the relief grains brought by the imperial court have been corrupted by officials of all sizes, but the grains brought by the imperial court are not money, and the officials have

Why do they need so much grain in there, and they don’t have that many people to eat it, so they thought of this way, found these grain merchants, and asked them to eat the grain, and then exchange it for money. Originally, they gave them

The price is not low, and these grain merchants will naturally not suffer losses. They also want to make a profit. The officials themselves are full, and there is no reason not to let these merchants also drink soup, so

Just ignore this matter and don't care about it. If you don't care about others when you're full, you won't be posting anything in the future, right?" The news Zheng Qing got just now was not good, and he was very angry when he said this.

"These corrupt officials deserve to die. We can't let these guys make such dirty money. We have put away our own money. Today I will be a good person for once and give these guys a warning. Let's go."

"Li Cong walked to a place where no one was around, shook his magic robe a little, and disappeared. After all, wearing this is so conspicuous that people on the street would come over to take a look. Besides, pick it up yourself.

What you have to do next is not what a magician should do. You should hide these clothes.

Zheng Qing was originally a man who was not afraid of heaven and earth. Even if Li Cong didn't care about this matter, he wanted to take care of it himself. In the past, a seventh-level warrior would have been a great person in a county, but now in the city

The scale has been upgraded. The seventh-level warrior is nothing. He can only follow Li Cong. If he wants to go it alone, he should rest first. Li Cong and Li Cong are both strong and strong, so they can naturally squeeze in.

The people nearby looked at the two people who were not waiting in line, and wanted to say something. But seeing the fierce looks on these two people, they decided to give it up. Such people are not something you can afford to offend, so just say a few words.

Okay, the most you can do is wait a few more minutes. Didn't you get beaten up by these two guys in the past? You can't pay for it. Li Cong saw that there are the most people outside this food store. You are the only ones who are unlucky today.

It's just you.

"Master, this Wu's Grain Store is the largest grain store in the city. The owner of this store is Fu Cheng's brother-in-law. He controls 10% of the entire city's food sources. They are responsible for this price increase. Now

They are the ones who make the most money." Zheng Qing has been doing homework on these things for a long time, and now he speaks clearly and logically. Li Cong looked at the very good grain store, damn. There are so many

If you are so unkind even though you have money, I am going to operate on you today and show you a mass incident.

"Hehe, let's do this today. Come with me and ask everyone to rob this place together. If there is really chaos later, take care of the few city guards at the door first." Li Cong saw it.

There are more than a dozen city guards at the gate to maintain order. These people are not even first-class soldiers. For people like Zheng Qing, it is really overkill. Even if a large family hires a five-year-old

A level 1 warrior is amazing. Li Cong is a level 7 warrior here as a follower, which is much higher than others.

"I asked you what's going on with you two. I've looked at you two several times and you didn't even look at where this place is. The one who's strong is going to come to the front and get to the back."

Seeing Li Cong and Li Cong standing in the middle and pointing at the door, a guy who was selling grain said loudly, Damn, I haven't gone over to seek trouble for you yet, but you guys came to the door first, this**

*A waiter is so powerful, and this boss must be used to being arrogant. Li Cong took one look at it, and walked over happily with Zheng Qing.

"You seem to be substandard. When I came from the Yamen just now, I saw that the price of food was not that high. The price here is half as high. It is illegal for you to sell food like this.

The imperial court punished me." Li Cong pointed at the price sign and said.

"Hey, I'm really looking for trouble today. I really don't know when the price of our food has anything to do with you. We can sell it for whatever price we want. I advise you to mind your own business.

Look at where this place is, who you are, do you know who our boss is? Look at the city guards next to you. If you want to buy food, get out of the back. If you are not buying food, get out of here.

, otherwise I will let you have a taste of what it's like to be in a prison." The guy looked at Cheng Jun very proudly and said, although there are many food stores on this road, they are the only ones guarding the gates of the city guards.

This is a fight, you people are so ignorant, if you really don't know what you are looking for later, I will really give your store a try.

"Haha, this guy has a really bad mouth. Everyone, this grain store is really cruel and ruthless. None of these people know what they are doing. Aren't they just a clerk in the grain store?

Why are all the nostrils pointing upward? Your grain should have been sold for fifteen cents, but today you have sold it for twenty-five cents. You said you don't know the court's decree. It doesn't matter. I tell you

Are you going to buy all the food at the price I said in the future?" Li Cong said loudly with a smile, and the people around him began to talk about it. In fact, they were also very dissatisfied with the price, but

There is nothing we can do now, right? We are all ordinary people, and the backends of these grain stores are very tough. There was an old man who made trouble a few days ago, and he was locked up. Now he doesn't know what he is doing.

"What, mother, you dare to make trouble here, shopkeeper, these two guys don't want to buy food, but they are still making trouble here." Although what this guy just said was very powerful, he also knew that he was a low-key man and could not instigate instigation.

They moved the city guards and moved the shopkeeper out.

The shopkeeper was a man in his forties. He looked like a profiteer. He looked at Li Cong and Zheng Qing. But there was no impression in his mind. These two people should not be descendants of powerful people.

At most, they are just mercenaries with some skills. There are more of them recently. If you are afraid of these people, you won’t need to do business in the future. You will lose your face immediately. Damn it.

Counting money in the room is a bad thing, damn it. Two such things come out to ruin your fun. How can such a thing be done?

"Haha, our grain stores have always marked prices like this. If you two don't want to buy it, you can go to other places and have a look. But I guarantee that the prices in the whole city are like this. I don't think so.

I am a man of some ability, but I forgot to tell you. Maybe you are powerful in the Warcraft Mountains, but don’t forget. This is a city, and I admit that no one can catch you two here, and I don’t want to cause trouble.

But you also have to think clearly. You can leave after the riot. What about your family members? Can they leave too? Can they all live in the Warcraft Mountains?" the shopkeeper said. These words of the shopkeeper are not the first.

As I said once, there used to be a lot of mercenaries who came to make trouble. The shopkeepers would greet people like this. Generally speaking, it was very effective. It was people like Pengda who had no family affairs who were upset. They didn't

I will worry about this and that kind of thing. Making trouble is the most important thing. I will usually get out. I won't be so unlucky...

"Shopkeeper, I don't seem to understand what you are saying. The threat to us here is very strong. I will tell you clearly. I am alone, and this is mine.

Brother, there are only two of us. If you have the ability, send us brothers in. If you don’t, I will buy grain today according to the price set by the government." Li Cong said with a smile, and casually put a piece of iron in his hand as he spoke.

The tools he made were bent. The shopkeeper was also a good judge of goods. Such skills would be impossible without the skills of a fifth-level warrior. Although there are more than a dozen city guards here, these people want to fight at the fifth level.

That's impossible for a soldier. People like Li Cong are definitely not something they can afford. It's better to just forget it now. How much food can the two of them buy? They don't look like rich people by the way they dress.

Yes, those guys were all eager to give Li Cong a little bit of strength. They had dealt with a lot of such people in the past, but now none of them dared to do it. This move by Li Cong was amazing.

I frightened these guys. Can my bones be stronger than that iron guy? It's impossible.

"Um... Sir, everyone is here to hang out with friends. This is two hundred kilograms of rice. I don't think you need any money. There is nothing to gain from such a small amount. Make friends and meet me in the future.

Please drink tea, you two." The shopkeeper's ability to change faces is also very powerful. He pointed at the two big bags of rice at the door and said. People outside have seen this shopkeeper before, and they know that as long as this shopkeeper talks,

He was scolding people all the time, either scolding the clerks or scolding the people who bought food. Anyway, there was never an idle day. It was very rare to see Li Cong with a smile today. Several people saw Li Cong

They can get two hundred kilograms of rice without spending any money. They are all envious of each other, but there is nothing they can do about it. They have the ability, but we don't have the ability, so we can only continue to accept it from the shopkeeper.

With the high grain prices set by the government, two hundred kilograms of rice is worth several taels of silver. These people will definitely put all the money they have lost on the heads of ordinary people. Thinking of this, every one of them has a sad face.

, the mood to watch the excitement is gone.

"200 kilograms of rice is really good. If we two brothers eat it, we will definitely eat it for a long time. However, our family is not just for our two brothers. These 200 kilograms of rice may not be enough for us to eat a meal. You see

What should we do about this matter?" Li Cong said with a smile. As he spoke, he looked at the hill of rice behind him. It was obvious that 200 kilograms of rice was not our goal. We had a more ambitious goal.

For example, with the rice behind you, the shopkeeper's anger has also risen. He has already admitted defeat. How can he go so far? Do you really think that your home is made of mud? You two are very powerful. Are you the city guard?

However, in the city, apart from the ninth-level warriors who can escape, I have never heard of anyone below the ninth-level warrior being able to escape. It will definitely be difficult for you two by then.

"Sir, our Wu Family Grain Store is not a soft persimmon who can be slaughtered by others. If you two are willing to give our master some face, you can take these 200 kilograms of rice and leave here. If you don't want to, we will end up breaking up."

It's so fun, this is the inner city, you two can't go out even if you have great abilities. If you want to cause trouble, you should weigh your weight first." The shopkeeper's voice increased a lot when he spoke.

, several city guards who were chatting next to them also felt that something was wrong at the door. It was not useless for them to come here. They had two meals a day, good wine and good food. Not to mention, everyone also had it every day.

Thirty kilograms of rice is definitely enough to feed a family of four. The boss of this family is in trouble. If we don't care and don't ask, we won't be able to handle the boss's things comfortably from now on, right?
