Invincible Emperor Summoning System
Chapter 852: Yangmou
Shen Wanshan took Yue Chen forward.
A man in ordinary clothes came to Shen Wanshan, and bowed to Yue Chen and the others: "Greetings, Your Majesty, all masters, Jin Yiwei Tian Bin."
Shen Wanshan said in a deep voice, "You're welcome, where is the person you were staring at?"
The clothed man said: "My lords, please follow me."
Shen Wanshan said in a deep voice, "You can just show me the way."
Afterwards, Shen Wanshan grabbed the man and flew up, and Yue Chen and others immediately followed.
Immediately afterwards, Yue Chen and others landed outside a fence, and everyone hid their bodies so that no one could find them.
At this moment, a man knocked lightly on the gate of the yard.
"Hey, old Zhou, why are you here?" A woman in her forties outside the door smiled enthusiastically, with a bright smile on her face.
Beside the woman was a simple and honest middle-aged farmer with a bright smile on his face.
Old Zhou said: "You two are very happy."
The woman smiled and said: "Isn't it? The old man showed mercy and bought peppers at a high price, and we can still reserve them. We have reserved all the fields. Our family has 30 acres of land. Next year we will make a lot of money." .
There is no need to worry about the money for my baby to go to college. "
This is the simplest wish of ordinary families.
With a little money to spend and enough energy to educate their children, they will be satisfied in this life.
"By the way, Lao Zhou, haven't you said what you want from us?" The woman laughed.
Lao Zhou also smiled and said, "I'm here because of a good thing. Can you go in and talk about it?"
"Come, come, come in!" The woman opened the door of the yard, and warmly invited Lao Zhou to enter, and then said, "My son's father, bring Lao Zhou a bowl of water."
"You're welcome." Lao Zhou said, and then sat face to face with the woman in the yard. Lao Zhou lowered his voice and said, "Someone asked me to collect grain, old sister-in-law, if you have some surplus grain at home, we can collect it at a high price."
The woman smiled awkwardly and said, "We, where do we have any surplus food?"
Lao Zhou stretched out the fingers of both palms, and shouted in front of the woman, "Eight copper coins."
"What, what do you mean?" the woman asked in surprise.
Old Zhou said in a deep voice: "Eight copper coins per catty. I want as much as you have."
The woman's breathing suddenly became a little heavy, and she said in surprise: "Old Zhou, what are you planning to buy grain at such a high price? You can go to the grain store in the city to buy it, there are plenty of it."
Lao Zhou shook his head and said, "Don't ask me why I bought it. Just one thing, I don't charge much if you sell it or not, it's just over 5,000 catties. If you don't sell it, I'll go to another house and ask."
After finishing speaking, Lao Zhou got up and was about to leave.
"Don't!" The woman stopped Lao Zhou and said with a smile, "We are old friends, how can such a good thing forget me. I agreed, and I will sell you a thousand catties of grain."
The woman's husband just came out with water when he heard the words and hurriedly said: "My child, you sold the food, what will our family eat?"
"Hey, look at how worried you are." The woman sneered, "If we have money, can't we go to the city to buy it? They sell it for eight copper coins a catty, and it is enough to go to the city to buy four copper coins. It can earn 4 copper coins.
Lao Zhou is kind enough to let us take advantage of it, Lao Zhou, don’t you think so? "
Old Zhou nodded.
The woman's husband is honest and responsible. He thought about it, but couldn't think of anything, so he nodded and said with a smile, "Old Zhou, thank you."
Lao Zhou nodded and said: "Okay, you guys have prepared the food, and I will pick it up with someone at twelve o'clock in the evening, remember not to make any noise."
"Oh, why is it midnight?" asked the husband.
Old Zhou said in a deep voice: "Don't ask, the money will not be fake anyway."
"Yes yes yes, don't ask, don't ask. Old Zhou, go slowly." The woman yelled.
Lao Zhou walked away, and the woman also entered the room.
Yue Chen came out of the corner with a sullen face.
Shen Wanshan said: "Your Majesty, let's go up and talk."
Yue Chen nodded, and rushed into the air with everyone.
Wei Zhongxian threw a flying boat to let everyone sit down.
Yue Chen shouted in a deep voice: "Shen Qing. What do they want to do?"
Shen Wanshan said: "Your Majesty, think about it, this period of time is originally the season for growing food, if everyone grows peppers, what will happen?"
"There will be a shortage of food next year!" Yue Chen shouted, "But our government still has food in stock."
Shen Wanshan said: "So, this is the enemy's second move, collecting grain at a high price.
While collecting peppers at a high price, they also collected grain at a high price. What happens if they are done at the same time? "
Yue Chen finally understood, and shouted in a deep voice: "There will be a severe shortage of food next year. However, the territory of our Yue Kingdom is so large. After adding Qingluo Kingdom, the current population is nearly 20 billion.
How did they collect the land? "
Shen Wanshan said: "My lord, they don't need to collect it in person at all, as long as they give a suitable price, will there be fewer merchants?"
Yue Chen said in shock: "You mean? Those who harvest peppers and grain are just businessmen?"
Shen Wanshan nodded and said: "And not only that, the people behind them, and the people behind them, may be businessmen. It is difficult to dig out the people behind the scenes. This network has been spread out, and the enemy's plan has been carried out. Now many The villages are all planning to plant peppers at the same time.”
Yue Chen said to Xiao He: "If so, how about arresting all these people?"
Xiao He shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the hustle and bustle is all for profit, since the people have tasted the sweetness and got the deposit, they will naturally continue to grow peppers.
As for businessmen, as long as they have enough interests, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of them, they will pass by.
Kill a batch, they will become more covert to buy.
As long as the benefits are sufficient, even if it is beheading, someone will do it.
And Your Majesty, you can't forbid the people to grow peppers, can you? "
Yue Chen also shook his head: "Of course it's not allowed. It is forbidden to grow peppers, and others can harvest potatoes. There is always something to harvest.
If I ban all the crops, then without the opponent's action, my Yue Kingdom will collapse.
Moreover, the common people are ignorant. After they see the huge benefits, who can resist planting?
If I ordered them not to grow peppers, they would overthrow my empire. "
Yue Chen could have a premonition that if he ordered the common people to restrain him, he could see the scene of a turbulent crowd.
I am afraid that every village will take up arms and drive away the officials who sent the order.
Things get tricky here.
The people are ignorant, they cannot see further traps.
Once the grain is taken away and the people don't grow grain this year, the price of grain next year may increase tenfold.
What the people eat will spit out more, and by then, the people of the entire Yue Kingdom will go bankrupt.
Yue Chen considered importing, but quickly denied it.
With 20 billion mouths, each person eats one catty a day, and the daily food consumption needs 20 million tons.
It is not realistic at all if 20 billion mouths are waiting for others to feed them.
"Who the hell came up with such a clever method? This is a conspiracy that makes me helpless." Yue Chen was furious.
