Everyone was shocked and took a breath of air.
Liu Zheng asked confusedly: "Who is it?"
Looking at the group of wolves advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, Reheman's face turned gloomy: "The Loulan wolf driver! The wolf driver is good at driving wolves, fight for him!"
Someone shouted: "Master Reheman, isn't this werewolf exorcist under the control of the Loulan royal family? Why is this?"
"that is!"
"Reheman, you have to give us an explanation!"
Everyone raised questions, Reheman's face changed several times, but it was difficult to answer.
Liu Zheng saw that there must be a story in it, and said loudly: "You guys should clean up the scene immediately to avoid bloodshed and attracting wolves!"
When everyone heard it, they thought it made sense.
In this short confrontation, the team of 300 people actually lost more than 30 people! Many people were holding the wreckage and began to suffer, but they did not dare to cry loudly for fear of attracting danger again.
When Qin Changfeng came back, he was so angry that he picked up a few wolf heads and said angrily: "I was so close to capturing that wolf king! How disgusting!"
Just now, he was very confident to take down the Wolf King, but the Wolf King moved very quickly and turned around to escape his slashing attack. This made Qin Changfeng very unhappy.
Liu Zheng said calmly: "It's useless to kill him, this is man-made!"
Qin Changfeng was stunned.
Zheng Yueru only talked about the werewolf drive from the side. Qin Changfeng was stunned, shocked that there was someone in the world who could drive a hungry wolf? Liu Zheng chuckled, and driving a hungry wolf was just like how ancient people tamed a wolf into a dog. In fact, if you find a way, it is not difficult. But he is also very interested in this werewolf driver. This wild wolf beast will not feel sad if he dies. More importantly, the combat power of a wolf can be equal to that of two soldiers!
This pack of wolves can be used as surprise soldiers in a war.
There are such talents in Loulan. It is really a wonderful country...
"Old man, thank you for saving me!"
At this moment, an old man in brocade clothes came over with the young people around him to express his thanks.
Liu Zheng took a look and saw that he was another member of the Longyan Dynasty Chamber of Commerce in this camel team. During the chaos just now, Liu Zheng asked Qin Changfeng to come over and help, which saved several of them from being massacred.
Liu Zheng chuckled and said: "Old man, what I said is serious. We are in the camel team and we should support each other!"
The old man was moved and said: "Young Master is so kind. I am the shopkeeper of Hanzhong Rongxiang Company. I hope I will have the opportunity to repay you for saving my life!"
Only then did Liu Zheng realize that these people were from Hanzhong.
After this battle, Rongxiang Company lost its defense and hostility towards Liu Zheng. The old man still said cautiously: "Master Liu, in this camel team, there are dragons and fish mixed together, there are everyone, Master, be careful!"
Liu Zheng nodded.
That night, the camel team took advantage of the darkness and marched forward for several miles before camping again with confidence. Because the smell of blood cannot be removed from that place just now, and it would be quite dangerous to camp there again. Liu Zheng looked at Reheman, but he didn't give these people any explanation, and it was hard to ask anything.
The next day, we hit the road again.
Now, compared to the initial rush of people on the road, everyone's spirits became sluggish and nervous.
During the day, the camel caravan still had not left the Gobi Desert.
The road became increasingly desolate, making my mouth go dry. The consumption of water has also increased, but Liu Zheng still maintains the habit of recording maps. This is the first time for him to come to this deserted Gobi Desert in two lifetimes. Besides being hot, it’s just dry. Even the earth and gravel beneath our feet were dry and hot.
In the Gobi Desert, crows are common animals, and there are unknown, dried bones everywhere.
While passing by a place similar to the Flame Mountain, everyone was even attacked by a group of crows. The camel team lost another dozen people!
The desert is ruthless. Only five days have passed and thirty or forty people have died.
No wonder, all the traders are full of fear and respect for this desert.
…
At this time, Kezhou City.
Mou Chengxiang, Lord Zhouhou, has been very comfortable recently.
He was very grateful to the Liu family and his son for leaving him such a prosperous place in Kezhou! If they had picked Kezhou away at that time, wouldn't he be going to that insignificant Yinzhou?
Ha ha!
He lay comfortably on the deck chair, enjoying the spring sunshine.
After coming to Kezhou, he realized how good it was here. Due to its geographical location, Kezhou is well-organized internally and has mature institutions. There is no need to govern it yourself! He just needs to lie down and collect the money!
"Humph, Liu Dahao, your intestines must be full of regret now, right?"
Little did I know.
At this time, in Kezhou City, as time went by, the people began to get excited.
"Have you heard? The Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce is collecting grain over there! Five cents a liter!"
"What? So high?"
"Yes, I heard that we are going to make wine!"
"Go and see, my family still has some food left over from last year!"
What the common people care about is how much harvest they can get from their fields in a year, how much they can have left after paying taxes, and whether they can sell some more to get some money. This is the real deal. of!
Who wouldn't like it when someone collects grain at a high price?
For a time, the place where the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce collected grain was immediately overcrowded.
"Is there any more? Is there any more? The price of food today is six cents per liter. I'll collect as much as I can!"
The people from the Chamber of Commerce said loudly.
Everyone was excited.
Six articles?
Isn't that twice as high as the government's grain collection?
"I want to sell!"
"Wait for me, I'll go home and push you over right away!"
Soon, the whole city went crazy.
The people rushed to sell grain.
Even the officials of the Kezhou Prefecture were seduced by the success of the money. Some even secretly took the inventory in the prefecture and sold it, thinking that when they make this money, they will wait until low-priced food comes again to fill the gap. .
Contact us within three days.
From five cents, to six cents, to eight cents!
The purchase price keeps rising.
The people went crazy, and some people even ignored spring plowing. Those who got the first-hand information even went to the countryside to collect grain immediately, just for the price difference. And some people, dazzled by the temporary benefits in front of them, sell all their own seeds.
Jiang Xuan felt incredible when he looked at the scene in front of him.
Can people be so crazy when facing interests? The seeds are all sold, what to do with autumn plowing?
He didn't know that the scene in front of him was equivalent to the people in future generations who were brainwashed by pyramid schemes and didn't care about anything for the sake of immediate interests. It has to be said that Qingyang Shuo's grasp of people's hearts is even better than that of Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng is from a later generation, but what about him?
Sitting at home, one can know the affairs of the world.
What shocked Jiang Xuan even more was that when a wave of grain collection started in Kezhou City, the Kezhou government did not intervene? This is something incredible.
Even people in Kezhou Prefecture are still selling grain secretly!
On the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce's side, a lot of money was thrown out, and on this side, truckloads of grain were pulled back to Yinzhou.
Finally, after seven days.
Mou Chengxiang learned of this.
"What?"
"Collect food?"
He was a little suspicious.
Unexpectedly, the counselor next to him was overjoyed: "Sir, this is a good thing!"
"how?"
"It seems that Yinzhou is definitely short of food! Haha, sir, you have to know that even if you buy food from other places and transport it back to Kezhou, it only costs five cents!"
"We in Kezhou Prefecture can take this opportunity to make a fortune!"
Mou Chengxiang's eyes brightened when he heard this.
yes.
Since Yinzhou is here to sell grain stupidly, why can’t Kezhou Prefecture sell it? This is a fortune!
He laughed loudly: "It seems that the Liu family and his son are more focused on business than agriculture, and they don't have enough food! Well, if you can sell it, just treat it as supporting them!"
Everyone was overjoyed and immediately opened a warehouse to sell grain.
This is probably the first time that the government has sold grain to merchants since ancient times. But how could Mou Chengxiang know this? In addition, because of his nepotism, the officials in Kezhou Prefecture were all sycophants and sycophants. Who can see the fishiness in this?
All the government's inventory was taken out and sold.
This shows how crazy the entire Kezhou City is.
Mou Chengxiang and others were thinking, if I sell it to you here for ten cents, I can buy it back from Jinghua or Hanzhong for five cents. This will double the difference in price. Who doesn't want to make a profit?
As a result, the grain collection movement in Kezhou City intensified.
After ten days.
Finally reached the top.
The price of food has been raised by Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce to fifteen cents!
However, people still can't stop.
Some people buy low and sell high, while others take the opportunity to stockpile grain. Some people are trying their best to find ways to make money.
"Sir, sir!"
"Nakezhou Prefecture, as expected, bought another five hundred thousand shi of grain from Hanzhong, hahahaha!"
When Jiang Xuan returned to Yinzhou, he was so excited that his attitude towards Qingyang Shuo changed.
"Five million?"
Qingyang Shuo was drinking tea and smiled faintly: "That's enough. Mou Chengxiang is greedy. If we give him a little sweetener, when he uses up all the money in his house to buy grain and grass, that will be the day we sell..."
Jiang Xuan was overjoyed: "Okay!"
In just ten days, Jiang Xuan already looked at Qingyang Shuo with admiration.
A disabled person, sitting in Yinzhou, can firmly grasp the psychology of the entire city of Kezhou?
What a genius is this?
At this time, Kezhou City has collectively fallen into madness.
Jiang Xuan can imagine that when the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce starts selling, Kezhou City will be in chaos!
as expected.
Just as they were collecting grain at high prices, which lasted for about half a month, the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce suddenly stopped collecting grain.
This caused many people who were immersed in sweet dreams to wake up instantly.
"what happened?"
"Why don't you collect food?"
"No, absolutely not, my batch of grain was shipped all the way from Hanzhong!"
"Yeah, open the door for us!"
"What should we do with the food?"
The people in the city, those who speculated, took advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune, and stocked grain in anticipation of price increases, instantly went crazy.
Unexpectedly, a person from the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce came out and said with a smile: "Everyone, the grain collection by the Chamber of Commerce has come to an end... Yinzhou has enough grain and grass for brewing wine."
Everyone yelled and cursed.
Is the carnival all over the city just over?
Who knows, the next day.
The Silver State Chamber of Commerce posted a notice.
"Three pennies, selling corn in stock, limited time supply!"
The entire Kezhou City was stunned.
Mou Chengxiang even looked the color of pig liver.
"What?"
"Touting?"
"Quick, quick, tell the food transport team to get back immediately, we don't want it anymore!"
"Sir, it's too late, Ku Yin has been traded to the other party..."
"What?"
