Xingfu City.
The small city closest to Fenglindu has a status equivalent to the satellite city of Jianye, the capital city.
When Yu Youquan arrived, there was already a large area of water in Xingfu City, and the water was submerged up to the calf, and the city was in panic.
Purchasing food in Xingfu City was more difficult than Yu Youquan imagined.
The price of food has soared to 1,300 yuan per stone, and there is basically no market for it.
Although grain prices fluctuate to some extent in different regions and seasons, Yu Youquan is still relatively sensitive to grain prices.
In the Longmen Town area of Liulong Village, one stone of rice basically only costs about 60 yuan.
Although it was a small rural area where food could not be sold at a good price, the price had soared by more than 20 times.
Simply outrageous!
Yu Youquan went to a lot of grain shops, but basically he didn't sell grain outside much.
There is no doubt that profiteers are hoarding food, further raising food prices.
The public is even more sensitive to food prices. With the mentality of buying up and not buying out, almost every food store is crowded with people grabbing food.
Looking at this situation, food prices are going to skyrocket!
In the howling autumn rain, people grabbing food could be seen everywhere, but Yu Youquan felt the unprecedented coldness!
The flood has not yet erupted, but food prices have already soared to this point. Once a major flood occurs and food production is reduced on a large scale, I really don't know how many people will starve to death.
How difficult people’s lives are!
I went to several grain stores and bought only a few stones of grain. Almost all the grain stores began to complain, saying that the grain was sold out and they would no longer sell it.
Like Yu Youquan, all the people who had not rushed to buy food were all crying.
When I turned around and heard that grain was still being sold at a certain grain store on a certain street, many people who were anxious to get angry rushed to the grain store in a swarm.
Yu Youquan looked gloomy.
Fuck, do you really think he is still the helpless kid from the mountains?
He just used his spiritual consciousness to find out the reality of most grain stores.
Not to mention that the warehouse is full, but it has nothing to do with the fact that the food has been sold out!
Armed with a sharp blade, the murderous intention arises.
Yu Youquan quietly sneaked into the warehouse of the grain store, took the bags of grain from the warehouse directly into Longzhu Cave, and then kept some money at the price of 60 Wen per stone.
One, two, three...
In a short period of time, Yu Youquan visited more than a dozen grain stores without knowing it, and soon "purchased" tens of thousands of shi of grain at a "fair price"!
In this way, he got some money from receiving gifts through various channels during this period, and almost all of it was spent.
Then he visited various drug stores and bought some medicinal materials for treating typhoid fever and preventing epidemics.
Then, return.
Not long after Yu Youquan left, many grain stores in the city discovered that a large amount of grain stored in the warehouses disappeared out of thin air, and only enough money to buy grain at a reasonable price was found.
When the big grain dealers who were hoarding food to drive up food prices found out, they almost suffered a cerebral hemorrhage from anger.
Did he meet a hero who robbed the rich and gave to the poor?
Or maybe he simply met the legendary... practitioner?
Some grain merchants who were hoarding food were frightened and frightened, and their faces turned pale with fear.
Taking only the food and leaving the money to buy it at a low price is already quite a rule!
If you really meet a cultivator who hates evil as much as he hates it, his profiteer's head might be hung directly on the city gate tomorrow morning.
certainly.
Not all profiteers who hoard and drive up prices can be so "enlightened", especially some grain shops with backgrounds or simply belonging to big families. They can't swallow this bad breath, and directly stabbed Zhenyi through their connections. manage.
It would be unruly to bully businessmen like them with the dignity of a cultivator!
Do you really think you are the only practitioner in this world?
But at this time, Yu Youquan was riding on the giant horned viper, swimming upstream along the rolling river.
In particular, the giant horned viper caused a stream of water vapor to cover Yu Youquan's body, making him seem to be completely integrated into the river mist, making no sound along the way.
After approaching Fenglindu for about a mile, Yu Youquan jumped off the giant horned viper.
Yu Youquan smiled and said, "Brother Bai is really a big help, delaying your sleep!"
Although the Giant Horned Viper is a great demon and quite powerful, many of its racial habits are still difficult to overcome.
for example.
hibernation.
Just like the temperature has been dropping day by day recently, giant horned vipers are basically too lazy to come out and move around!
The giant-horned viper shook his head and said through his voice, "I'll be glad if I can help you. If you're really grateful, just treat me to a roasted whole lamb next time."
At this point, the giant horned viper couldn't help but stick out its tongue.
Snakes usually swallow a large amount of food at once and then digest it slowly. Last time at Shuixie Villa, Yu Youquan prepared a lot of delicious roasted whole lamb for him, which he still has endless aftertaste for.
Yu Youquan immediately smiled and promised immediately, "I guarantee that you will be well fed and there may be new flavors when the time comes."
New flavor?
The giant horned viper's eyes lit up.
Humans are really good at enjoying themselves. What were the things they used to eat called?
"good!"
After a few more brief chats, the giant horned viper was finally completely satisfied, and then it shrank again and turned into a bracelet wrapped around Yu Youquan's wrist.
After rushing to Xingfu City to buy grain, I was delayed for about a day. As expected, the flood peak arrived and Fenglindu was already submerged.
All the rescued villagers were scared, secretly happy, and sad!
When the flood came, almost all the fields on the side of the river were submerged, but there was no need to worry about the harvest...
If it's not sunny today, they will probably run out of food soon!
Seeing Yu Youquan's return, Governor Pang's eyes lit up and he hurriedly came to pay his respects.
Yu Youquan was not polite, he just led him to the cave on the mountain that the villagers had found, and poured out a large amount of grain and medicinal materials in front of him.
Governor Pang was dumbfounded.
What are magical means?
This is!
After showing off his skills, Yu Youquan didn't say much, but gave Governor Pang a Spring Thunder Hair Growth Pill and simply helped him refine it.
In just about half an hour, Governor Pang seemed to be ten years younger.
The wrinkles on his face seemed to have melted away, and his body was so powerful that his fighting power soared. He felt that he would definitely satisfy the flower girl!
Strictly speaking, Governor Pang's background was not bad, and he could be regarded as a son of a well-off family.
Otherwise, he would not be able to pass the examination of Dazhongzheng and be given a fifth-grade evaluation and take up the post of governor.
The clan is actually guarded by practitioners!
but.
As one of the vast majority of people without talent, Pang Bi was lucky enough to meet a few immortal elders in the clan, but it was difficult for him to come into contact with practitioners.
Even if you are lucky and get some gifts from the clan, they are just regular elixirs.
We are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but we are afraid of comparing goods.
In such a horizontal comparison, the "immortal medicine" given by the clan was simply reduced to rubbish in seconds!
Yu Youquan said bluntly, "Bao Danwu has helped you initially refine it, and the subsequent medicinal power will continue to be digested. At least for the next ten years, you will be energetic and immune to all diseases."
"Little Fairy..."
Governor Pang was so excited as never before that he seemed unable to speak for a moment.
Yu Youquan hammered and said, "I only have one request, make good use of this batch of supplies and help the people affected by the disaster... If there are other victims fleeing the famine, you should also try your best to help them..."
Governor Pang immediately cursed and swore, "Yes, yes, Xiaoxian, don't worry. I will go all out to preside over the disaster relief this time, and I will definitely live up to your expectations, Xiaoxian."
Yu Youquan: "Just be responsible for yourself, don't let anyone know about my existence!"
"As commanded."
The painting cake was fulfilled, and in addition, it was also a "political achievement". As expected, Governor Pang was extremely attentive.
Work hard and work hard!
In order to better mobilize the enthusiasm of his subordinates, the rewards were even specially increased, and the enthusiasm for disaster relief was temporarily high.
What Yu Youquan didn't expect was that in order to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of his staff Lu Heng, Governor Pang personally appointed him an official and made a wish to recommend him as a special driver.
Lu Heng couldn't help but be stunned.
Since he took refuge with Governor Pang, what he did most was help him organize documents and write poems.
This kind of kindness...
Lu Heng was so moved that he immediately expressed his willingness to do everything for the governor!
This is no small matter, but it means that he officially becomes an official and has the qualifications to change his family.
In a short period of time, a large number of rescued villagers could see a handsome man in a raincoat doing everything for them.
The villagers were extremely grateful and exclaimed that this was the real blue sky... This gave Lu Heng an unprecedented sense of satisfaction!
This kind of satisfaction is different from getting promoted and getting rich, and it is very different from returning home in rich clothes. Even if he just sees a smiling face from the villagers and hears a compliment, it makes him feel as sweet as eating honey.
What Lu Heng didn't expect was that when he was busy doing everything he could to prepare for flood relief.
The benefactor, Governor Pang Bipang, specially ordered Hua Niangzi to enter his room...
Lu Heng was immediately stunned.
Also shocked was Yu Youquan!
He also didn't expect that Pang Bi, who was extremely enterprising, in order to stimulate the enthusiasm of his employees, while granting an official position and making a wish, he actually gave the flower lady to Lu Heng with the beauty of adulthood.
Yu Youquan didn't know what to say for a moment!
This fucking world...
He watched all this happen, and naturally knew the drastic changes in Hua Niangzi's psychology from beginning to end.
She did admire Lu Heng a little, but she had never thought of betraying her master. After all, with her background, it was not easy to marry a good man.
I just didn’t expect that the master would change hands and give her away...
It only took less than half a day for Hua Niangzi to go from being shocked, shocked and crying to tears, to despairing and forced to accept her fate, to regaining her composure and smiling.
Watching all this happen, Yu Youquan remained silent for a long time.
What is the world of mortals?
Perhaps it is this kind of inversion of black and white, a cage where all living beings are present!
It is a big dyeing vat. Even an outsider like Yu Youquan will inevitably be infected by it once he comes into contact too deeply.
In this process, the monk in sackcloth no longer chanted sutras every day, but began to help the victims tide over the difficulties.
