Chapter 347: Piercing the Sky
The game between the two countries is not only the victory or defeat of the war on the battlefield, but also many unknown glooms hidden in the dirt and hidden under the heavy darkness. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Where there is light, there is darkness, and this is a pair that coexists in mutual benefit.
At this moment, there are not small scale riots in many county towns in Chu State.
"Why has the price of grain risen again, boss, you have made too much money!" a young man in a coarse cloth robe stood outside a rice shop and shouted angrily at the boss, and many people gathered around him.
"That's right, Boss Xie, you're too unkind, you just raised the price of grain last month, and this month it has risen by five coppers! Who can afford to eat this meal!" a woman raised her broom eyebrows and said sharply.
"That's right, Boss Xie is still cheaper!"
"The price of food has risen so high, and you have made a lot of money, so Boss Xie should not increase the price!"
The people spoke one after another.
Boss Xie is the owner of the grain store, and at this time, Boss Xie is also full of wry smiles, spreading his hands and wanting to cry without tears, "Folks, I really didn't make much money, I basically sold it to the villagers at cost price!"
"My grain is also purchased from the Chamber of Commerce, and the price at the Chamber of Commerce is also rising again and again, so I can't sell my grain at a loss. Boss Xie said sincerely, and finally couldn't stand the bitter begging of the villagers, Boss Xie gritted his teeth, "Okay! Everyone is a villager, and I don't make any money from everyone, so I will sell it to everyone at cost price! Reduce the price of two copper per liter on the basis of the current price!"
"Thank you, boss!" "Boss Xie is really a kind person. ā
In any case, at least the price of two copper has been reduced, although some people will be skeptical of Boss Xie's statement, but now the entire county is rising in grain prices, if you don't buy it now, it will continue to rise after a while.
And some big families who have vaguely received the news have already begun to stockpile grain on a large scale, which has also exacerbated the rate of rise in grain prices in the market.
And behind the scenes of all this, there seems to be a faint figure manipulating all this, manipulating the rise in food prices.
But these big families are just guessing, and they haven't found anything unusual.
......
"How's the grain purchase?" Hu Xueyan asked his shopkeeper with a calm demeanor.
"Back to my lord, since three months ago, we have been secretly hoarding food on a large scale, and now the price of food in the market has risen by nearly fifty percent!" said the shopkeeper with a respectful face.
Hu Xueyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he gently stroked the long beard on his chin, "It's not enough, it's not enough, it's still not enough, sell a lot of the goods hoarded by the Chamber of Commerce, and then hoard a lot of food!"
"By the way, what's going on with Chen Guo's Golden Carp Chamber of Commerce?" Hu Xueyan took a sip of tea and asked indifferently.
The shopkeeper under his command showed a look of adoration, "President Hu is really clever!
Hu Xueyan gently knocked the tea lid twice and put down the teacup in his hand. "It's nothing more than the human heart. ā
"At first, I asked the following four acquired chambers of commerce to negotiate with him, and the Golden Carp Chamber of Commerce thought that he had taken the initiative and kept raising the ...... requirements."
"Then I asked the four chambers of commerce to evacuate at the same time, and the Golden Carp Chamber of Commerce panicked, at this time, our Red Snow Chamber of Commerce will make another move, and the Golden Carp Chamber of Commerce will also put down its own shelves, after all, the lessons from the past are ahead. ā
Shaking his head, Hu Xueyan sighed: "It's nothing more than people's hearts! Greed is not enough to swallow elephants." Some things are lost and cherished. ā
......
Chu State, Nanfeng County ordered Jiang Feng to travel lightly, leave from the back door of the county government, and go straight to Nancheng District, Nanfeng County.
Walked to the back door of a very quiet house, knocked lightly twice, and after a while, the back door opened with a squeak.
Revealing a delicate face, Jiang Feng had a smile on his face and walked in through the open back door, but Jiang Feng didn't notice that the beauty's face was a little pale.
The back door was closed, and Jiang Feng was about to speak to the beautiful woman beside him, when two sword lights burst out from the shadows on both sides!
Jiang Feng's eyes widened, and he looked at the beautiful woman beside him in disbelief, and he was about to escape, he suddenly found that he couldn't move, his whole body was stiff, he was ambushed!
The handsome woman standing next to Jiang Feng stepped back again and again, tears dripping from her eyes, and Jiang Feng's arm could see a tiny needle trembling slightly......
The sword light mercilessly sank into Jiang Feng's chest and neck, his chest was pierced, and a hole the size of an egg was pierced in his throat.

This Nanfeng County magistrate, who cultivated in the early stage of the Divine Tibetan Realm, died silently in the backyard of his concubine who was raised outside.
Two warriors in black tights wore black scarves and glanced indifferently at the concubine Jiang Feng had raised, "Don't worry, Jiang Feng is dead, and your family will be released by our people in half a day." ā
The concubine nodded again and again, her eyes couldn't help but panic, and at the same time, she looked at Jiang Feng's corpse that fell in front of her in a panic, as Jiang Feng's concubine, she naturally knew Jiang Feng's status in Nanfeng County!
is not only the county commander of Nanfeng County, but also the descendant of the Jiang family, a local clan in Nanfeng County, and the younger brother of the head of the Jiang family.
The two Assassins, dressed in black tights, then left the area.
At the same time, not only Nanfeng County, but also many counties in Chu State have similar incidents, not only county orders, but also county lieutenants, county officials, and Chu court officials in various places.
These incidents almost all happened at the same time, and it was obviously a premeditated and prepared attack, and once it was reported, it would shake the entire Chu State!

Half a day later, the bodies of high-ranking county officials were found one after another, and all the people who found them did not dare to hide it, so they were so frightened that they almost lost their souls, and hurriedly reported to the authorities.
