Chapter 1423: Cheap Sale

Things have come to this point, this batch of grain has become a "hot potato", who dares to admit that it is their own, then the crime of "private possession of grain" alone is enough to bear, in fact, Ye Shikai knows very well that so much grain suddenly appeared "inexplicably" in Yang County, where the grain store was monopolized, how could Cao Wenzuo, as the county magistrate of Yang County, not know who it was, but he was unwilling to tell the truth.

Ye Shikai also knew that he did not have the power to govern Yang County, although he knew the injustice in front of him, but he could not eradicate it radically, but he had other ways.

"Come on, find an open space, move all this food out, find a few more guys, and count all this food. ”

"Wow. Mancang immediately took the sergeant down the tunnel, the sergeant carrying the grain bag came out of the tunnel continuously, the people on both sides of the street were dumbfounded, the tunnel was like a bottomless pit, dozens of sergeants took turns to move for more than an hour, before finally the grain was completely emptied, the abandoned shops were piled up, and moved to the avenue, gradually, the grain bags piled up together, became a "hill", blocked the road.

"Soldier, these are the guys I'm looking for. At this time, Mancang also pulled more than 20 guys over, and anyone who saw so much grain couldn't help but be surprised.

"Alright, let's use the math to calculate how much food there is. Ye Shikai ordered.

"Don't you hear me, don't do it quickly. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. "Where have these guys seen so much grain, and they thought that some big businessman had come to Yang County, and when they came here and found so many Qin troops present, they didn't dare to slack off at all, and they started to count them non-stop.

"A thousand stones. ”

"Two thousand stones. ”

Ye Shikai asked the sergeant to sort out the counted grain, and after counting less than half of it, there were already more than 2,000 stones, Ye Shikai glanced to the side, and the shopkeeper's face became more and more ugly, which also confirmed his conjecture, it seems that after the shopkeeper goes back, he is afraid that he will "suffer".

"Keep counting. Ye Shikai turned to leave, gave Xue San a look, motioned for him to follow, and the two went to a remote corner.

"Soldier, do you have any tasks? ”

"Xue San, if I ask you to find some locations in the county now, do you have a way. ”

"Please rest assured, what I used to eat was the thief's bowl of rice, nothing else, the leg kung fu is not blown, although it is the first time to come to Yang County, but as long as the military waits give me half a day, I will definitely explore this place clearly." "Xue San's cornices and walls, Ye Shikai has seen it, and he also asked Xue San to train a team to be responsible for reconnaissance, and now it is just right to come in handy.

"The grain in the tunnels is deliberately hoarded here by profiteers, but I think there is more than one place in the city where the grain is stored, you should take your brothers to the city to find it, especially those remote places where no one notices, or some deserted shops and guest villages. ”

"Well, the subordinates understand, so they will take people to set off. ”

.........................................................

An hour later.

"Several military masters have been counted, a total of 5,400 stones, enough for the people of Yang County to eat for ten days. ”

"Good guy, so much grain, old Ye, this grain must have been deliberately existed here. Shangguan Jian said excitedly.

"Hmph, whoever I belong to is mine now. Ye Shikai clapped his hands, "Come on, clean up the shop for me." ”

"Old Ye, what are you going to do. ”

"Nonsense, of course it's selling grain. Ye Shikai said loudly: "Inform the people of the county, just say that I have cheap grain to sell here." ”

"How about it, Cao County Order, you shouldn't mind if I do this. Ye Shikai asked rhetorically.

"This ...... Of course I don't mind, these grains are yours now, and the official naturally has no opinion. Cao Wenzuo kept wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Soon, the news of Ye Shikai's sale of cheap grain spread all over the place, and the people of Yang County flocked here to buy grain, and even blocked the passage of the entire market, not so much selling at a low price, but rather "selling cheaply", so that the "high-priced grain" of those profiteers who hoarded Juqi would be ignored and would be "smashed" in their own hands in the end.

"Old Ye, what the hell are you doing here. Shangguan Jian asked curiously.

"Can't you see it, the profiteers here can monopolize the grain store, do you think Cao Wenzuo doesn't know anything, I'm just giving them a lesson, ill-gotten gains, we can't accept them with peace of mind, but we can't cheapen these people, the last way is to return it to the people." Ye Shikai suddenly smiled and said, "As for the money you get, buy some wine and meat for the brothers." ”

"I see what you mean. ”

Ye Shikai didn't care about this 5,400 stone grain, which was only enough for the people of Yang County to eat for ten days, and the grain store in a county was enough to consume at least two months, that is to say, in this Yang County, there are at least five or more tunnels like this, but whether they can be found depends on Xue San.

in the barracks.

"Brother Ye, although these grains belong to you, selling them all at a low price will disrupt the economic order of Yang County, and as a Great Qin soldier, it is not your duty to sell grain. Han Hao was displeased, he has always been a wise person to protect himself, even if he sees through the tricks, he will not break it, and what Ye Shikai did today is tantamount to "declaring war" on the people behind the grain store.

"Lord Han, please rest assured, I have my own measure, on the contrary, it is these profiteers who have to make inches and greedily suck the "blood" of the people, if there is no one to govern it, it will be like this for a long time, and we will lose the hearts of the people, no matter how fierce the sergeants are, no matter how sharp the swords and guns are, we will cease to exist. "Ye Shikai is a person who has crossed over from modern times, and naturally knows how the Qin Dynasty is falling step by step, losing the hearts of the people, and the tiger and wolf army that swept away the six countries and drove out the wolf clan will eventually fall apart.

Ye Shikai has never had ambitions, relying on the power of one person to turn the tide and change history, he just wants to do what he thinks is right, maybe one day in the future, he will find that those who have traveled to ancient times think they can change history, but they don't know that they are just promoting the development of history, or rather, when Ye Shikai came to the Qin Dynasty, he has become history.

Back in the barracks, Ye Shikai couldn't sleep, the 5,400 stone grain found out of the tunnel was not sold out until the curfew, there was no way, Ye Shikai could only order the sergeant to continue selling the next day, of course, he was more concerned about Xue San and them, I don't know if they found other places to hide food.
