At first, only a few people speculated whether there was a disaster somewhere, and the grain in the market changed from one price a day to one price per hour, and in the end, the grain shops simply closed their doors, and no one could buy a grain of rice from the grain merchants.

Even those who are late to the scene have noticed that something is wrong, and this is a sign before the arrival of the disaster year!

Rumors were rife in Matsuura Castle, but there was no news from the government at this time, and many people were asking how big the disaster was, whether it was Hizen Province alone or the entire Saikaido Province.

In this era, there was neither television nor newspapers, and the news was spread by word of mouth, and it had already spread in the street market, and there were even people who swore that they saw the Sea Dragon King and became angry, and they wanted to set off a monstrous wave to sink the entire Saikaido to the bottom of the sea, and some people said that it was the Earth Dragon's reflexion, and the entire Saikaido was going to be dark.

What many people who know the truth say, no one can tell whether it is true or false at this time, after all, the government has not come forward to clarify what happened!

Of course, at this point the clarification is useless!

The grain merchants in Songpu City were all invited by Fujiwara Shuxiong to the Guardian Mansion, this kind of thing as a Tang Dynasty Zhen Qian is inconvenient to participate, Fujiwara Shuxiong hopes that Zhen Qian can come forward to persuade these people, but Zhen Qian sternly refused.

Joke! What happened to a Tang person when the disaster in Hizen Country was affected, Fujiwara Shuxiong invited Zhen Qian, but he didn't have any good intentions, and this muddy pond would not jump into it.

Everyone is not stupid, you dig a pit, I dig a pit, it doesn't matter if you jump or not, both sides are actually wary and don't say anything to each other.

Zhen Qian returned to the drunken immortal building in Songpu City, and arranged for someone to go to the door of the official office to inquire about the news, at this time there should be a result soon, but I don't know if Fujiwara Shuxiong can make this decision.

Zhen Qian was waiting for news, but the news of the official office had not yet come, but he was waiting for an old man.

"It's a truth! Why did you come to Matsuura Castle, no one saw you, right? ”

Shao Er Yizhen appeared in Songpu City at this time, Zhen Qian said that he was not surprised, counting the days, it has been ten days since Shao Er Dongshang led his troops to attack Osumi Province, and the skirmish of a few thousand people should have ended!

Zhen Qian saw the joy on Shao Eryizhen's face, the war should go very smoothly, at this time, Shao Eryi really appeared in Songpu City, did he come to report the good news to himself?

Speaking of which, Zhen Qian's age is about the same age as Shao Eryizhen, and he also caused disaster to Shao Eryizhen's sister, strictly speaking, Shao Eryi should really call Zhen Qian a "brother-in-law", but Zhen Qian and Shao Eryi Dongshang are commensurate with each other, and Shao Eryi really calls Zhen Qian "Uncle Shi", this relationship is called a mess!

But this title is called by each of them, so it's really not good for anyone, so no one will break it.

"Thank you Zhen Lang for your concern! This time, I was entrusted by my father to come to Matsuura Castle for a few things, and I came to ...... for a few things", Shao Er Ichio does not seem restrained, Fujiwara Brush Hero's time to control Hizen Country is too short after all, and it is still too early to completely control Hizen Country, and Less Er Ichimae is not worried that he will be discovered by Fujiwara Brush Male in Hizen Country at all.

"A few days ago, my father led the two armies of Hyuga and Satsuma to successfully capture Kagore Castle in Osumi Country, and now my father has taken control of Osumi Country, and the guardian of Osumi Country has also been defeated and died, my father hopes that Zhen Lang can go to Osumi Country and negotiate with Zhen Lang on important matters?"

Zhen Qian frowned, he really wanted to go to Osumi Country, but at this time, he couldn't leave Hizen Country at all, so he said: "I'll talk about this later, is there anything else going on?" ”

Shao Er Yizhen didn't react to Zhen Qian's answer, but said flatly: "When I passed by Chikugo Country, I heard that Ji Bei Zhenbei had arrived in Saikaido and was discussing disaster relief with other Linglu countries, I wonder if Zhen Lang heard about it?" ”

This matter is a big secret for ordinary people, but I am afraid it is not a secret to a family like the Shao Er family.

Zhen Qian was not prepared to hide this matter, otherwise he would not have notified Ji Bei Zhenbei in advance, and when he saw that Shao Er Yi Zhen asked about this matter, he said about the locust plague in 1510 and said: "Even if Yi Zhen does not come to Hizen Country this time, I will send someone to Osumi Country to inform Shao Er Dongshang of this matter in a few days, I have a disaster prevention and relief plan here, I might as well take a look first, Osumi Country is located in the southeast corner of Saikaido, and this locust plague will not necessarily affect Osumi Country, but it is better to prevent trouble, This locust plague is not the best opportunity for the development of Osumi country, after the locust plague must be a food shortage, the people are displaced, and this is the time for Osumi country to expand its armaments, grasp this opportunity, the strength of Osumi country will leap to the top of the Saikaido, then the young two east is still not worried about the big thing! ”

Shao Eryi really bowed to the end, and said to Zhen Qian's solemn and deep salute: "Thank you Zhen Lang for your words, I have taken my father here to thank you in advance, and when Zhen Lang goes to Osumi Country, my father will be thanked!" ”

Hizen Province and other Ryoku countries were affected, it does not mean that Osumi Province was also affected, and the locust infestation also has a route, once there is no numerical advantage, the locust plague is not to be feared, Osumi Province is located in the southeast corner of Saikaido, for example, this time the drought in Saikaido Province, the drought in Osumi Province is not serious, this is indeed an opportunity for Osumi Province.

Shao Eryizhen's face was silent, the news that several places around Hizen Country might suffer from locust plagues had been heard a few days ago, and this time he came to Zhen Qian, just to see Zhen Qian's attitude, but he didn't expect that Zhen Qian was already thinking about Osumi Country.

In this era, the output of land was originally very thin, even if there were dozens of acres of thin fields at home, they could only mix food and clothing for a year, and if they encountered a famine, they usually had to sell their children and daughters to live a hard life. Fortunately, in the terrain of Saikaido, droughts usually occur rarely, and even if there is a drought, it is usually not very serious, but this year's situation is a bit special, the drought is not only beyond the normal year, but also followed by a locust plague.

"But I heard that Zhen Lang is going to help Fujiwara Shuxiong, a thief, to rescue the disaster, I wonder if this matter is serious?"

Zhen Qian nodded directly, without a hint of being ready to deny it, and said with a compassionate expression: "I am helping the entire Xikaidao disaster relief, God has the virtue of a good life, Zhen can't see death without help, I really don't want to persuade a certain to stand by!" ”

Shao Eryi really opened his mouth, he wanted to say something, but when he saw the grief on Zhen Gan's face, many words came to his mouth but he couldn't say it, Zhen Gan saved the widow, and it had nothing to do with Fujiwara Shuxiong, of course, these words have official clichés in them, but who can say that it is wrong?

Shao Er Ichi really wants to see Fujiwara brush male Hizen country suffered, the weaker the Hizen country is, the better it is for himself, but watching the Japanese people starve to death, these words can't come out of Shao Iichi's mouth!

Moreover, once this kind of words spread, it will not lose the hearts and minds of the entire Saikaido, so they will grit their teeth and say no more.
