"Your Majesty! Oh no! Oh no! Thousands of acres of fertile land outside the city were all trampled overnight, and all the wheat seedlings were trampled on the ground, and they definitely couldn't survive~! ”

On the 24th day of April in the second year of Zhenguan, early in the morning, as soon as Liang Shidu came out of the dormitory, an old eunuch ran over in a panic and shouted. ? ｗ?ｗ?ｗ?． ｒａｎｗｅｎa`ｃｏｍ

Liang Shidu's expression froze, his face instantly gloomy, and he said angrily: "What? Thousands of acres of fertile land trampled? Can you find out who did it? ”

The old eunuch hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, Wang Shaoqing has already brought people to check, but they only saw many chaotic horseshoe prints in the fields, and it can be preliminarily determined that someone is riding a horse and trampling the crops at night, and nothing else is known!" ”

"Horseshoe prints? Could it be that the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty has already arrived outside Shuofang City? ”

Liang Shidu sighed in his heart, and suddenly had a bad premonition, his face was ugly and said: "Let Xin Fang'er immediately send scouts to go out of the city to investigate, to see if there is any Tang army around Shuofang City, and order Li Zhengbao to increase security in the city, and strictly prevent Tang State spies from mixing into the city to confuse the people from commotion!" ”

"The old slave obeys!"

The old eunuch also smelled a hint of an unusual smell and hurriedly took the order.

…………………………………

Although the Liang division has sent generals and led troops to strengthen patrols in the city, the so-called defense of the people's mouth is worse than the defense of Sichuan, once the people's mouths are opened because of a certain major event, it can't be blocked!

What's more, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty just left two days ago, and now the thousands of acres of crops outside the city have been trampled, and it is difficult for people not to think in vain about such a thing at such a sensitive moment!

The Tang army has cut off the grain and grass of the Great Liang State, and will soon attack Shuofang!

This kind of rumor is spread everywhere in the city, there is no need for Liu to send into the city to fan the flames, after a morning, it has been spread, those gentry and wealthy families with strong eyesight, have packed up the gold and silver, and while Liang Shi has not closed the city gate, quickly escaped from Shuofang City!

Liang Shidu saw that he could no longer control the public opinion of the people, so he hurriedly ordered the Quartet Gate to be closed, and he was not allowed to enter or go out!

In the mountains and forests outside the city, the Tang Army has a big tent!

Wei Chi Jingde said in a deep voice: "According to the report, today the Liang division has sent a large number of scouts to search for us outside the city, in order to prevent them from discovering where our main force is, General Xue, this chief ordered you to take two thousand cavalry, immediately go out, go to trample the crops, by the way, attract the attention of the scouts in Shuofang City, once someone in Shuofang City chases, immediately retreat to the southeast and lead them away!" ”

There are more than 80,000 people in the Tang army, although they are now hidden in the mountains and forests, but with so many people, it is still a little difficult if they don't want to be discovered by the Liang army, so Wei Chi Jingde thought of such a method.

Xue Wanjun received the order and said: "The last general will take the order!" ”

Wei Chi Jingde nodded and said: "Once all the crops outside the city are trampled, we will send troops to surround Shuofang City, and then the detailed work in the city will be launched together, and there will be no food and besieged by the army, the officials and people in the city will definitely be panicked, and at that time, we will break the city in one fell swoop!" ”

"Yes! Boss! ”

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

Lantian County, Yunshan Villa.

"Master Hou! Boss Feng's fleet is back, and now it's almost close to the Bahe Wharf! ”

When it was close to noon, Pang Feiji rushed into the house and reported to Li Zexuan.

Li Zexuan's spirits perked up, and he couldn't help but say with joy: "Really? That's great! Walk! You immediately go to the county commander He and ask him to send all the officials in the county government to come to the dock to carry the seeds! When the time comes, you will also come with all the guards of the house! ”

It's the end of April now, and it stands to reason that it's a little late to plant cotton, but if you want to plant it, you can definitely plant it, and the planting method of the nutrient bowl can also improve the survival rate of seeds! So in general, now that you start planting immediately, you can still catch the last "last train"!

Pang Feiji clenched his fists and said: "Yes!" Master Hou! ”

Li Zexuan nodded, immediately went out, asked someone to bring Dabai, rode a white horse alone, and ran towards the dock in the lower reaches of the Bahe River!

When he arrived at the wharf, Li Zexuan happened to see the Feng family's big boat approaching the wharf, and after just waiting for tea, the big boat docked, Feng Zhihua hurriedly jumped down from the big boat, and said to Li Zexuan with a smile: "Master Hou!" How can Feng Mou, how can he greet you in person! ”

Li Zexuan laughed and said: "Boss Feng has been running all the way, traveling thousands of miles, buying white stacked flower seeds for Benhou, how can it be worth Benhou to greet him personally?" Along the way, Boss Feng, you have worked hard! ”

Feng Zhihua arched his hand and said: "It's not hard! It's not hard! It is Feng's honor to do things for Hou Ye! This time he went south to Guangdong, fortunately, Feng used the fairy mirror and glass devices handed over by Hou Ye to exchange for a total of 16,000 catties of white stacked flower seeds, and the balance of more than 3,200 silver coins! If it weren't for the fact that the maritime merchants in Nanyang really didn't have seeds, Feng would still be able to exchange more white stacked flower seeds for Hou Ye! ”

Li Zexuan was surprised: "You can get so many flower seeds?" And there's a balance? ”

At the beginning, he handed over Feng Zhihua's rare products of 80,000 guan of the workshop and asked him to take them to Guangdong to exchange 10,000 catties of white stacked flowers with Nanyang maritime merchants, although the merchants of small Nanyang countries love the fairy mirror and the items in the glass jar, and will give a lot of premiums, but Li Zexuan did not expect that there would be so many premiums, counting, these 80,000 guan of goods, in the Nanyang merchants almost sold 160,000 guan!

Feng Zhihua smiled slightly: "This is mainly due to the group of maritime merchants in Nanyang, it is rare to see such a number of fairy mirrors and glass cups, the price they offer is at least more than fifty percent higher than the market price of Chang'an, and don't look at the price of white stacks in Chang'an City, but those are all raised prices by Hu merchants, in Nanyang maritime merchants, one or two white stacks, only about three hundred yuan!" Therefore, in the end, Feng was not only able to exchange for 16,000 catties of seeds, but also had a surplus of more than 3,000 yuan! ”

When Li Zexuan heard this, he couldn't help but secretly praise Feng Zhihua's loyalty, if Feng Zhihua didn't take the initiative to say these things, he would definitely not know, if Feng Zhihua really wanted to be corrupt, he would be able to embezzle tens of thousands of yuan this time, and he would not be detected, but Feng Zhihua did not do so, Li Zexuan said with a look of relief and joy:

"Good! Boss Feng, you have been running all the way, and it has cost a lot to hire crews, repair and maintain big ships, and you don't have to give Ben Hou the balance of more than 3,000 yuan, you can't let you run for nothing, and you will pay for it, right? ”

Feng Zhihua hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no!" Master Hou, Feng has long been pessimistic about money now, Feng can't ask for this money! ”

Li Zexuan smiled: "Hehe! Boss Feng, when you go here, you and Ben Hou Ke have agreed to it, so don't refuse again! This trip to the south can be regarded as a favor owed to you! If he is in trouble in the future, just come to Ben Hou! If Ben Hou can help, he will definitely help you! ”

"Master Hou! Yo! This kind of child is really shipped! It's just great! ”

At this moment, He Xianling finally arrived at the dock with a group of officials.
