Chapter 167 Understanding

"This year is not a wasteland, why dare this millet be sold so expensive?"

"You unscrupulous businessmen, can't you join forces to raise the price?"

A very rare quarrel occurred at the entrance of several grain and rice shops in the west of Changling City.

Business is the most harmonious. Even if you win, business may not be easy to do in the future.

Hearing such yelling and scolding, the shopkeepers of several shops rushed over. Seeing that the more people gathered, the more people were shouting and scolding, the shopkeepers of these shops first asked the guys to smile and bring out some tea and refreshments, and then explained sincerely: "It's not that we joined forces to raise the price, but there is really no grain on the market for this period, and the price of our millet is really high."

"There is no grain rice to be harvested? Why is there no grain rice to be harvested?"

A group of people naturally didn't believe it.

For these people who suddenly have to increase their expenses and are difficult to afford, they only believe in the difficulties in front of their eyes, but do not believe in the explanations of these businessmen.

These shopkeepers smiled bitterly, but some shop assistants took the opportunity to whisper, "It's not that the people and wealthy people have collected all the rice and grain in Guanzhong, and they sell fish, and even the food business has to be gathered together..."

At the beginning, the crowd was still not sure who was rich and powerful, but when they heard that they were selling fish, the poor people were instantly infuriated.

Isn't that Jiaodong County?

In the eyes of Changling people, Jiaodong County was originally an outsider, so it would be fine if these outsiders were generous, but they actually used this method to raise the price of rice?

But it is okay not to eat fish, but how about not to eat millet?

"We have no choice, and it's useless to block us. If we continue like this, we can't last long, just like you."

"We have a wrongdoing and a debtor. We are also a small business, so there is no need to make things difficult for us."

"If we want to change us, we also want to ask the group of fish sellers why they are doing business like this."

Listening to these guys' complaints, as the crowd gathered more and more, I don't know who shouted, "Let's go and settle the score with those who sell stinky fish." The crowd of black people rushed towards several shops in Jiaodong County in anger.

"Hey!"

The shopkeepers of these shops looked at the people walking away and smiled at each other, and became gloating.

Practitioners have the skills of practitioners, and market figures have the skills of fighting. They think that the rice and noodles shops in Jiaodong County will probably not be able to eat them.

However, what they didn't expect was that the crowd who were incited to anger had only been gone for a while. However, the few guys they secretly sent out looked like earth and rushed back in a hurry. The first thing they said was: "Shopkeeper, it's not good."

"What's wrong?"

These shopkeepers who were consciously planning were stunned.

"The shops in Jiaodong County have not yet increased their prices, and the prices of rice and flour are slightly lower than usual. Moreover, the shops in Jiaodong County promise that the prices will not change in the next two months, and there is sufficient food in stock, so there will definitely be no food to sell."

Ji immediately said.

"What!" several shopkeepers shouted in disbelief, and one of them couldn't help but shouted: "How is that possible? It's not the news that came out last night. Their shop will increase its price today..."

Several guys were a little speechless. One of them said: "Even when the business opened in the morning, the price tags for the price increase were all posted. However, when someone went to the store, the price was said to be the price of the Dragon Ball Rice in Guanzhong. It must be determined, not the price of these ordinary grain rice."

"I'm fooled!" Several shopkeepers all had the urge to vomit blood.

This is obviously a fake news deliberately released by people from Jiaodong County overnight, and deliberately asked the people they placed in the other party's business to find out such news.

"Shopkeeper, we'll change the price soon." A guy finally realized something and called out anxiously.

"Change the price, what price to change, whether to change it up or down." A shopkeeper was a little stunned.

"Change down!" The guy was really anxious and said, "Those who rushed to smash the shop were incited to go back. Many of them shouted that we were deliberately making trouble and were coming to smash our shop."

"It's over, it's over!" A shopkeeper called out three times.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Another shopkeeper also panicked and scolded, "What's the use of changing prices now? Changing prices is not just a matter of giving people a verbal argument, but it shows that we are secretly doing bad things. We can't do business in the future! Close the store, close the store, close the business, close the business!"

Only then did these shopkeepers and a group of friends start moving things and door panels as if they were awakened from a dream, but the door panels were only inserted a few times, and a large group of people had already appeared at the entrance of the alley.

"Good guy! This group of people!"

"These profiteers! We ran around! They actually found that they were exposed and closed."

Seeing these people closing the door in a hurry, a group of people shouted and rushed towards the shops like a war.

Then they robbed and smashed them. Not to mention that the grain and rice in the shop were cleaned, even the originally clean shop was smashed. The shopkeepers were beaten to the point of being blue and swollen, curled up in the corner and dared not speak.

Some city guards arrived when they were almost smashed, but looking at the public's resentment, the city guards who originally wanted to come forward were also stopped by an official dressed in ordinary coarse cloth.

Although the shops were robbed and smashed, many people inside were often stopped when they attacked the shopkeepers and their friends in anger. The shopkeepers suffered extremely mild injuries. He couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that it was insidious or insidious as a woman.

These old foxes in Changling always look down on the young woman in Jiaodong County, but compared with the woman in Jiaodong County, they really don’t deserve to carry shoes to the other party.

For some reason, he suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the second prince and the group of Changling nobles who supported the second prince.

Those nobles have been high in Changling for many years, and they have won many things in the past, but

The consequence is that many people in Changling City are used to their winnings, so it is normal for them to win, and not many people will care about it. But if they start to fail constantly, most people will feel that they have completely set sunset and are completely out of reach.

So in fact, after Yingwu, Jiaodong County and Bashan Sword Field got together, even though Jiaodong County and Bashan Sword Field won many times, in fact, there has not been any reform itself that has brought great losses to these nobles.

But consciously, many people really began to think that Yingwu would win the final victory, and many people who were swaying have begun to completely turn to Yingwu.

...

The carriage carrying Ying Wu had left Changling.

This is a very ordinary carriage. No one would have expected that this carriage would carry a eldest prince who was going to the border army.

Lin Zhuojiu and Yingwu sat opposite each other, and in such a carriage, it seemed a little crowded.

"It must be in Tunliu."

Ying Wu looked at Lin Zhuojiu and smiled bitterly: "Cheng Jiao will definitely choose to stay in Tun."

"Why?" Lin Zhuojiu asked without any personal feelings.

For him, if he determines where the other party will take action, he will make many arrangements for that place next. However, before that, he must have sufficient conditions to prove that the other party will take action in that place.

Otherwise, if this is the most critical point of judgment, it will lead to a loss of everything.

"I know my brother very well because I watched him grow up with my own eyes. I would give in to him almost all the time, but he would not be satisfied with it. So I judged that even if I left Changling to go to the border army, he would not think that I would achieve achievements in the border army. I would definitely try to kill me before I established a relationship with the generals of the border army."

Ying Wu looked at Lin Zhuojiu and said, "He is very smart and has arranged things very well, but he is actually too young and always lacks a sense of security in his heart. Therefore, the things he arranges often choose to be in a place he is slightly familiar with, or there are many people in that place that he thinks he can do. Those people must have contacted him, so he can confirm the loyalty of those people."

"He has a concubine who is about the same age as him. He grew up together. He didn't necessarily favor that concubine much, but he trusted the concubine very much. The concubine was born in Tunliu, and the few maids who were close to Tunliu were all from Tunliu, so I guess I have told him a lot about Tunliu since I was a child."

Lin Zhuojiu listened very carefully. He nodded slowly, then looked at Ying Wu who had stopped and asked, "Does Cheng Jiao understand you?"

Ying Wu shook his head and said, "He is not interested in understanding me, he has never looked down on me very much. Moreover, I have always seemed very mediocre in the palace, without any unique hobbies, joys and angers, and no special talents."

"Are you sure?" Lin Zhuojiu looked at him and said.

Yingwu nodded.

He fell silent.
