New Story of Lv Bu

In front of the grain shop of Tiaoliang, dozens of shops for Tiaoliang were lined up all at once, and grain bags containing various grains were piled up like a mountain. On a huge notice board, three kinds of grains were marked with huge writings. The price. Corn, seven thousand three hundred dollars per bucket, miscellaneous grains, six thousand five hundred dollars per bucket, beans, five thousand six hundred dollars per bucket. The prices are written in chalk on the pitch-black rice board, which looks particularly dazzling. "Wow! The price of food is so high today? It is 40% to 50% higher than yesterday!" The people immediately screamed.

A chubby civil official stood on a high place and let go of his throat and shouted: "Today's rice, food prices are calculated by comparing today's opening prices of the eight major grain merchants in Chang'an City! The rough calculation is based on the eight major grain merchants. Add the price of each grain in the grain store and divide it by eight to get the price of each bucket of grain. On this basis, it is five hundred dollars cheaper! As usual, only five baht for meat and five for Bingzhou Baht money! Today’s distribution of grain is the calculation of grain prices. The eight major grain merchants raise prices, and we will increase them, and the eight major grain merchants cut prices, and we will lower them! Today, the supply of rice is opened, and the price is 10,000 shi. Okay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the people onlookers immediately understood that Da Sima was aiming at the prices of the eight major grain merchants, and went to work with them! If you rise, I will rise, and if you fall, I will fall. It will be 500 dollars cheaper than you. As long as someone buys grain, they will definitely buy mine, not from the eight major grain merchants! If things go on like this, the grain of the eight major grain merchants will not be able to go out. Once the grain of the merged state arrives, the grain of the eight major grain merchants will wait to fall! "It's so good! Let the dog days also taste the taste of the falling price of food!" The wise man who knew it was busy explaining Da Sima's intentions to the fathers and villagers.

On the high-rise building of another wine shop more than a hundred steps away, the eight major grain merchants sat together, and they heard clearly what the fat official said just now. The common people can think of the truth, can their smart minds not understand it? They are sitting there quietly, but their brains are running fast, calculating the gains and losses.

The first person to speak was Xiao Weng: "Wang Kui's hand is poisonous! First, he used the'relief for work' to attract the people who are eager to buy food, and stabilize the people's hearts. Then he **** with our food prices. He insisted that we couldn’t sell the food in our hands. Smart! Really smart! This is an absolute household plan, Wang Wei bet that we dare not eat his 20,000 stones of food. As long as we are afraid, back off, Withered! His goal has been achieved! As soon as the grain of the state army arrives, the price of grain will fall miserably!"

The huge emerald ring on the right **** of the old man was flickering again, and he said loudly. "Xiao Weng, this ruined household plan is indeed a poisonous plan, but it is not without breaking the law. Let's first calculate how much grain there is in the hands of the Bingzhou Army. By noon yesterday, there were still 20,000 stones left when it was full. Xiao Weng lost five thousand stones in one fire. Even if the three thousand stones are unlucky today, there will be at most 15,000 stones left. This is all the grain of the Union State Army."

"Looking at the posture outside, there are always seventy to eighty thousand people see that Lao Shizi's'relief by work', which is only a small number based on sixty thousand people. Each person can advance ten days' worth of food, and everyone is ready to fight. Ten days is one stone, and sixty thousand people is sixty thousand. Everyone, not to mention where to get the 60,000-stone food? Even if the Bingzhou army has privately kept food, they will all fill in this big brain. Go inside the pit. This is not yet counted as the rations for the garrison in the Liangzhou front line and Chang'an city!

Xiao Weng patted the case table with his hands with eight huge gold rings, and let out a dull loud noise. "There are sixty thousand Xiliang army, ninety thousand rebels, plus 120,000 in Gaoshun, 50,000 in Chang'an, a total of 320,000 troops, plus the salaries of civil and military officials. How much is this? Food? Is 20,000 shi enough? The state army must still be transporting food to Chang'an City!"

That's right! The quantity is wrong? Yesterday the leveling order Li Ping said that there were only 20,000 shi of grain. Looking at today's posture, it would definitely not pass without 100,000 shi of grain. Where can I get the remaining 100,000 stone grains? Wang Kui has been the householder of Cao Zhuan for many years. He would never be so stupid. He opened his eyes and talked nonsense. That would be a joke on the credibility of the court!

At this moment, a pro-successor came upstairs quietly, whispered a few words in the ear of the old man, and handed a note to the old man. The old man opened the note and read it through the ten lines, then slowly raised his head, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were smiling, and the smile was as brilliant as a flower. Everyone in the room turned their heads and looked at the elders who were crippled.

"Zhou Jun! Zhu Jun! Xiao Weng is unfortunately in the middle!" The old man stopped his laugh and looked up at the crowd. "The news that Taiwei Zhao just sent, and the state army's grain-carrying fleet, encountered wind and waves on the big river and was silent, losing hundreds of ships! The grain exceeded 200,000 shi! Just now, I personally told me, for a moment. Before the clock, Zhao Qi was furious in the Dasinong Mansion, clamoring to investigate the cause of the sinking of the grain ship, claiming that he could not explain to the people in Chang'an without grain!"

At this time, one of Xiao Weng’s pros also came up, seeing his hesitating and silent appearance, Xiao Weng became angry, and said loudly: "What's the matter! Tell me straight! It's not a foreigner! Don't fucking. Like a girl!"

The pro-accompaniment hurriedly bowed to salute and said: "Just now, Pingzhun ordered Li Ping to send someone to report the letter, saying that Zhao Qi was furious at the farmer’s mansion, and that 200,000 shi of grain was sinking, and he was in the process of providing pensions. Also, Jinyang There are only 100,000 shi of grain left in the city, and it will be shipped in a month at the earliest! Because the grain ships have sunk, and there are so many ships eagerly unable to find! Also, news from the official, Cao Cao, It is said that Hu Cao Zhuan and Wang Wei Shangshu resigned. He was vague. I heard that he resigned. The specific reason is not clear. It seems to be related to the silence of the fleet."

As soon as he finished speaking, two more pros ran upstairs in sweat. "Dongweng! What the Bingzhou Army issued to the people of the'Food for Work' were all food stamps. They were asked to go to the wharf outside the city five miles away at noon to collect the food with the stamps. Then they would go home and settle down. Assemble in the square and report in the East City." "Okay, go down!"

Xiao Weng waved them to retreat, and turned around to look at everyone. "You princes, have you seen it? Have you started to get a pension! This proves that Zhao Qi is really anxious! It seems that Wang Wei has been preparing for a later move, it is the 200,000 stone of food! It is a pity, God! Without taking care of him, these two hundred thousand shi grains sank in the river! How about? Everyone joins forces to eat all the grains? Show Wang Wei and the Bingzhou army a little bit of color? Let them only know about our eight major grain merchants. Awesome!"

"This statement is great!" "Good!" "Just do it!" "Haha! As long as you eat the food, when the lie of the Binzhou army is exposed, it will be the time when Chang'an City is in civil strife!" "Haha" At that time, Lu Feng will have to kneel down and beg our eighth grain merchants! Hahahahahahaha!" There was a smug laugh from the third floor.

"Yes! Let's bet that Lu Bu doesn't have these 30,000 stones of grain in his hands!" Xiao Weng's big hand patted the case.

At last there were people in front of the Bingzhou Army’s Mi Mi shop. More than a hundred people dressed as grain merchants rushed over. There were hundreds of cars behind them. The cars were not covered. At first glance, they were full of yellow, orange, and orange gold, or cyan. Coins. Each of these people had high crowns and belts, wide robes and big sleeves. Around each of them were five or six thugs who looked like big waists and round brows with cross-brows glaring. By no means kind. Beyond that, more than a thousand child servants dressed as porters were attached, pushing carts full of copper coins and gold.

"I want a thousand stones of corn! The car behind this is full of gold, so at the market price in Chang'an, a pound of gold can be exchanged for 15,000 meat for five baht!" The grain merchant at the top slapped his hands. , The nostril cried out, as if afraid that others would not hear it. "I want two thousand stones!" "I want two thousand stones too!" In an instant, everyone shouted.

"What's the noise? What's the noise? This is the government! It's not your turn to be presumptuous!" The fat official who had made a loud noise before started a fire, and he yelled out the good voice. "Now there is not so much food here! Those who want to buy food, pay one by one, and the government will issue a voucher stamped with a large seal that they have used the painting, and go to the pier five miles away in the afternoon to line up to get the food!"

"I'm here to buy food, not to the wharf to buy food. Does the government pay for the transportation?" Several people dressed up as food merchants began to code angrily. "Hey! I understand! If you want to buy grain, you should pay for the voucher, go to the wharf five miles away at noon to get the grain, and you will be arrogant in the cost of transportation! Joining the state army with the grain is for the relief of the civilians in Chang'an, not for letting You food dealers are hoarding! Love to buy or not! I still don’t want to sell it to you!"

As soon as he saw these people dressed up as food merchants, the fat official had a fire in his eyes. What he hated most was these food rats. "Buy, why not buy it? Let's say it's OK. I won't get the food by that time, and I won't take your skin off!" The grain merchants are also on fire, saying that your grain ships are **** sinking. , Are you still playing Ligereng with me here? Some accounts are to be settled after the autumn, I am not in a hurry at this moment! Wait until noon, and then see who is the uncle and who is the grandson!

In less than half an hour, the grain merchants cashed out 30,000 shi of grain. They put away the vouchers, cursed, and waved their hands and led thousands of people to the dock five miles away. On the third floor, Xiao Weng waved his hand: "Go! Let's go to the dock too!" The eight major grain merchants followed him and filed out. Lao Ren deliberately fell behind and quietly called his butler over.
