Chapter 1234: Food Shortage

Master Lei has been in Beacon City for so many years, because his son is a general and has military power in his hands, so the people of the entire Beacon City respect him very much. Whether it is sincere or false, at least on the surface, when has it been attacked or insulted like this.

But the law does not blame the public, as long as one person does this, the people behind it are as if they have been led, and without thinking about it at all, they throw the things in their hands at Master Lei's body. Vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, and even stones that I don't know where to go.

Master Lei is also an elderly person, so humiliated and angry, he fainted instantly. And it fell straight backwards, and when he rolled his eyes, he was unconscious. The action of falling down is very standard, and when the back of the head hits the ground, there is no hesitation at all.

After falling like this, the person didn't wake up, and it could be seen that the old man was not fainting in disguise, but really fainting. It's not good for the people to continue throwing things at him, after all, there is still a bottom line in being a man.

It's a pity that Lin Xi's heart is not so soft, including Han Yuchen. Han Yuchen directly gave Han Shan a look, and Han Shan stepped forward, picked up the fainting Master Lei, and slapped him a few times, and the person eased up.

"What am I doing, where is this?" asked Master Lei with a blank expression, as if he had forgotten everything that had just happened.

"This is the Lei family, I ask you now, where did Lei An hide the grain? If you want to say, your Lei family, old and young, I will let you live. If you don't want to say it, it's simple, the whole family is up and down, and the border is distributed...... By the way, you're here at the border. Just find the northernmost place and place it at will. ”

As soon as Han Yuchen finished saying this, the face of Master Lei, who wanted to pretend to be amnesia, changed, he really didn't expect these two people to be so ruthless. At such an old age, there is no pillar in the family, and now there is only one grandchild and a few women and children left, and this King Jing can bear to do it.

"What, have you thought about it?" Han Yuchen asked softly, with a coldness in his eyes, he didn't pity the Lei family at all.

Such a family makes the entire people of Beacon City suffer with it! How can such a person gain his sympathy. Moreover, this man does not know repentance. Even if he feels sorry for the children of the Lei family, it shouldn't be that he is distressed, but the master of the Lei family is distressed, if he really loves his own children and grandchildren, he should say it well in order to ask for forgiveness.

"I said, I'll say everything!" Master Lei looked depressed, originally thinking about preserving the Lei family's property, but now it seems that it is really a fool's dream.

"Where is the grain?" asked Han Yuchen.

"Hidden in the barracks!" Master Lei said, and everyone gasped again, this Lei family is really desperate, and they actually hid the food of the people in the north in the barracks.

At this moment, the people threw out the things in their hands again, they were really angry, so angry, couldn't they do it, wouldn't their lives be fate?

"Where's the military rations!" Han Yuchen didn't believe it at all, this Lei An would hide the grain in the barracks, and the military rations were still there.

"Sold!" said Master Lei, the whole person was decadent, I really didn't expect that there would be such a day, no face, and their Lei family was destined to become the sinners of the entire Beacon City.

On that day, the people of the entire Beacon City knew that the general Han Yuchen had searched for more than one million taels of silver tickets from the Lei family, and the Lei family did not know where they had been sent, and since then, there has been no news.

After that, they received silver, ten taels of silver per family, and the general did not leave a penny, which made the people of the entire Beacon City very grateful and moved.

I thought that when the food arrived in the barracks and became military food, it would never be possible to be asked back. But they never thought that this great general would send the Lei family's silver to them!

With so much silver, the general has never been really tempted or taken for himself, which is what really makes people feel admired. That's what really touches people.

Therefore, since then, Han Yuchen has left an indelible impression in the hearts of the people of the Northland. However, after that, an unexpected thing soon happened, a food shortage.

There were many grain merchants in Beacon City, but as soon as everyone held the silver in their hands, the grain merchants in Beacon City began to raise the price of grain.

Originally, the people had silver in their hands, even if the price of grain was a little higher, they could still bear it. Although the silver in their hands makes people's hearts stable, but, compared to it, what they want more is food, and only when food is in their hands can they really not panic.

Therefore, everyone wanted to take the opportunity to stock up on more food. However, who would have thought that the prices of a few grain merchants would rise not by one or two points, but by a lot!

"How can the price of this grain be so good in a day! It has only risen by a few pennies a day, and what kind of grain can we buy if this continues!" the people complained.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this Lin family grain store is still there! Their prices have not risen, let's still buy their family!" someone said this, everyone was happy when they heard this, and hurriedly went to the Lin family grain store.

"This Lin family is really a conscience! Let's hurry up and buy food, it's too late!"

I don't know who said this, everyone thought so, and hurriedly went to the Lin family's grain store, and in that corner, someone had been paying attention to the movements of the Lin family's grain store. Seeing that the water pavilion in front of the grain store was blocked, everyone smiled with satisfaction, this is right! I went to Lin's house to buy it, and bought all their grain!

And at this moment, in the Meng family, everyone was also anxious, pacing back and forth, and after a long time, the old man of the Meng family was late.

"Everyone, you're here!" said the old man of the Meng family, with a smile on his face, compared to the anxiety on the faces of other shopkeepers, he looked like this, which made people can't help but hate!

"Master Meng, you can be regarded as coming out!" said the shopkeepers, and one by two ran to Master Meng.

"You have been waiting for a long time, I was waiting for the news from my subordinates just now, you are very happy, seeing that there are so many people buying food today, it is estimated that it will not be long before the food of the Lin family will be gone!"

"But Master Meng, watching the silver enter other people's pockets like this, we feel uncomfortable! What a good opportunity, why don't we sell grain!" asked some shopkeepers, who were glanced at by the Meng family and instantly closed their mouths.

"Don't you understand the truth of putting a long line and catching a big fish?" and you still want me to tell you?" said with a smile on his face.
