Moreover, things like sweet potato rice and wheat bran are not harmful to the human body, but have some nutrients and increase satiety at the same time.

Why not do such a good deed that does not harm others and is beneficial to oneself?

Count Eliot thought for a long time and finally gave the price: "Seven copper plates per kilogram for sweet potato flour and soybean flour, six copper plates per kilogram for potato flour and corn, eight copper plates per kilogram for cornmeal, and nine copper plates per kilogram for wheat flour." ”

The yield of sweet potatoes is very high, but because the content of cellulose in it is too high, it is not easy to digest and easy to make people bloated, so it cannot be used as a staple food, and the price is generally low.

Before the outbreak of the demonic disaster, sweet potatoes could only be sold for up to two copper plates per kilogram, and even if they were ground into flour, the price would only rise slightly.

However, what Merman did not expect was that the cheapest food in Gannan Province could be sold at a sky-high price in Pantuo City.

He immediately regretted that he had fed the animals potato flour and corn when he knew it.

In fact, what he doesn't know is that because sweet potatoes are not easy to digest and are easy to feel full, it is just right for the current situation of food shortage in Tuocheng.

Soybeans are a staple food, and although the yield is not low, because of its rare and rich protein, it is relatively anti-hunger, and it can now be sold for seven copper plates.

In the past, it was only two or three copper plates per kilogram.

Potato flour and corn are relatively decent, there are no special advantages, and there are not many disadvantages, and the six copper plates are just right.

As for cornmeal and wheat flour, these two were the most recognized grains for the inhabitants of Arthur's kingdom, delicious and easy to digest, so the price remained high, tripling before the outbreak of the Plague.

Merman roughly calculated that these grains were originally the tax output of Gannan Province, and there was no cost, at least 2,000 gold coins could be earned.

This number happened to be the bottom line given by Leopold, so he agreed without thinking about it: "Yes!"

Hearing this, Count Eliot was overjoyed, he clapped his hands vigorously, and said with a smile: "Happy, I will send someone to check the number, and as long as the quantity is good, I will pay the money immediately." ”

Merman nodded in agreement, and it made sense.

The two sides reached an agreement smoothly, and naturally everyone was happy.

But they don't know it.

At this time, a violent storm was brewing in the city, and the cause of the storm was these thousands of tons of grain.

The residence of the Pantuocheng branch of the Army, Navy and Air Joint Chamber of Commerce.

Director Evan was holding the account books, carefully comparing and counting the grains, and instructed the coolies to carry the grain to the warehouse for storage.

At this moment, two small servants suddenly ran in from outside the courtyard gate, and shouted with anxious faces: "Director Evan! Something is wrong! There is a big problem outside!"

Something happened?

Hearing this, Director Evan suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Who is fighting whom?"

Hearing this, the little guy on the left hurriedly replied: "It was the sergeant of our logistics unit who fought with the residents. ”

The guy on the right hurriedly corrected and said, "No, it's a fight with Earl Hornby and Earl Thompson." ”

Evan suddenly felt a little big, and he asked carefully again: "Don't worry, talk slowly, what's going on?"

As a supervisor, he has to calm down and figure out what is going on before he can deal with it, and it will be bad to go out recklessly.

The guy on the left gasped and explained from the beginning, "Here's the thing......"

With the help of the guy on the right, Evan finally figured out what was going on.

It turned out that after the residents of Pantuocheng knew that the Army, Sea and Air Joint Chamber of Commerce had food, they rushed to buy it.

However, before Merman left, he had explained that the grain was absolutely not for sale, and everyone kept this order in mind and did not sell it to the outside.

The residents of Pantuo City can't understand this, you open a chamber of commerce to sell grain, I spend money to buy grain, it's a matter of course, why don't you sell us.

The fear of hunger has made these people forget that both parties must be willing to buy and sell, and take it for granted that the Army, Sea and Air Chamber of Commerce is to stock up on goods.

Suddenly, the crowd was turbulent.

Fortunately, Merman brought more than 800 elite knights with him on this trip, and even if they were bold, they did not dare to confront the stubborn soldiers, so the scene was deadlocked.

The Army, Navy and Air Joint Chamber of Commerce does not sell grain, so they block the door and do not leave.

Originally, the scene was quite stable, but

It didn't take long for a group of soldiers with the same armor to suddenly come from outside the field, and without saying anything, they were about to break into the chamber of commerce.

Now the soldiers of the logistics army are not happy, where are there such unreasonable people?

The two sides first pushed and shoved, and then simply fought.

The little guy on the right had a bitter face: "Those are the private troops of Earl Hornby and Earl Thompson, they say that they came to ask for food on the orders of the two earls." ”

Asking for food? Director Evan frowned and asked, "When did we owe them food?"

The two little guys were also puzzled, and then shook their heads silently.

After thinking about it, Director Evan ordered, "Go and get Colonel Merman back, remember to come back immediately." ”

After speaking, he strode towards the antechamber of commerce.

When I came to the front hall, there was no imaginary hustle and bustle, but it was very quiet, and the occasional moaning came from not far away.

Director Evan stepped out the door, stunned by what he saw.

I saw the soldiers squatting all over the ground in front of the wide street, looking at the private army pretending to be a certain lord or some lord, densely packed, I am afraid that there must be five or six hundred people.

The soldiers of the Gannan Provincial Logistics Army surrounded them, and there were officers who looked like people wandering among these soldiers, and when they saw anyone who dared to get up or make other movements, they were beaten severely on their heads and faces, and the moans just now came out because of this.

The officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel sat on a chair at the door, shouting: "Fuck! Squat with your head in your hands! If you dare to move, you will break your dog's legs! Why do you come here to make trouble? Don't you look at how many heads you have!"

Seeing this, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and Director Evan stepped forward and asked, "......Lieutenant Colonel Soxi!" What's going on?"

Although he had already heard the reports of the two little guys, he really didn't expect that he would face this kind of situation.

The person called Lieutenant Colonel Suo Xi raised his head and saw that it was the head of the Chamber of Commerce, and immediately got up with a smile: "Director Evan, don't worry, it's just some troublesome riffraff, let us solve it." ”

Troublemaker?

Director Evan looked at the brightly armored soldier who was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Talking nonsense with his eyes open, what a ruffian this is!
