Early the next morning, Wang Kuang sent someone to invite Liu Bian, yesterday they had already discussed, in order to deal with the Huai County Wang family and other major families, it was necessary to win the support of the entire Hanoi County family, and now it happened to be the time for the arrival of reinforcements from Hanoi County, of course, the Huns had been run away by Liu Wei and Wang Kuang.

When Liu Wei finished washing up and came to the lobby of the Taishou Mansion, Wang Kuang had been waiting here for a long time, and when he saw Liu Bian, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The last general has seen His Royal Highness." ”

"You don't have to be polite on public holidays." Liu Wei waved his hand, walked straight to the main seat, knelt down and sat down before turning his head and saying to Wang Kuang: "All the representatives of the Hanoi County family should have arrived today, right?" ”

Wang Kuang nodded and said, "Calculate the time, this evening, the families from all over the country have basically arrived. ”

"My lord.... Oh no, my lord. ”

While the two were talking, a small official ran in in a panic.

Wang Kuang frowned, and said in a deep voice: "What kind of system is it that is panicked?" Can the sky still fall? ”

"It's not that the sky is falling, it's the whole Huai County... The people of Huai County are about to turn the sky upside down. The little official took a deep breath before continuing: "My lord, now the price of grain and cloth in the entire Huai County has risen by thirty percent." ”

"What? Up by 30%? Wang Kuang looked at Liu Wei with a gloomy face: "Your Highness, this is Wang Xian's old method, he is the largest grain merchant in the surrounding counties of Huai County, and he controls the grain prices of the entire Huai County in his hands, and the previous general suffered from this." ”

"It's just that the price usually rises by one or two percent, and the people can't stand it, but I didn't expect it to rise by three percent all of a sudden, if you don't come up with a countermeasure in time, I'm afraid that the entire Huai County will not know how many people will be starved to death."

"Wang Xian's good means."

Liu Wei narrowed his eyes, although he was ready to kill the Wang family, but he didn't expect Wang Xian to take the lead in the war so neatly, originally he planned to meet the representatives of the Hanoi family first, borrow some money by the way, and then exchange materials from the system, after everything was ready, before the war.

Wang Xian dared to take the lead in the war, which shows that he has to completely tear his face with Wang Kuang, but where does Wang Xian come from, take the lead in the war?

You must know that although Wang Kuang's influence in Hanoi is not large, it is basically a word in Huai County, even if Wang Xian uses economic means, it is only for self-protection, forcing Wang Kuang not to dare to do anything to him.

Now Wang Xian dares to take the lead, either he has confidence in his heart, or he dies together, it is obvious that Wang Xian is not a fool, and he will not play this set of ending up together, thinking of the representative of the Hanoi family, then the answer is obvious.

Think you have a backer?

Liu Wei sneered faintly, then got up and said: "On the official day, I went to the street alone, but I wanted to see Wang Xian's methods." ”

。。。。。。

West City, Huai County.

The whole West Market is crowded with people in a mess, especially a few rice shops and cloth shops, which are even more crowded, and there is no room for people to move around at all, everyone is holding a bag of rice in their hands, and the guys in the rice shop are busy weighing rice and selling rice, and even the fat shopkeeper who is too lazy to move on weekdays has done his own work, but the manpower is still insufficient.

"Let one go, let one go." A small servant struggled into the rice shop in the crowd.

"Hey, boy, get in line, what are you squeezing?"

"I'm in a hurry, and the price of rice has risen."

"Nonsense." A man said unhappily: "Who don't know that the rice has risen?" Save you in a hurry? ”

"No~" The little guy was full of anxiety, and finally said simply: "I'm a guy from the rice shop." ”

"Huh? Rice shop guys? ”

As soon as everyone heard that it was the guy from the rice shop, they all tried their best to squeeze to the side to make way for the little guy.

The little guy hurriedly entered the rice shop, ran to the fat shopkeeper, and whispered something, the fat boss nodded, and then said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, the owner ordered the price of rice to rise by seventy, and after selling the rice in the store, it will not be sold." If you didn't buy rice, hurry up. ”

"What? Another 70% price increase? That's a direct double. ”

"This ** businessman."

"That's right, why don't you sell it?"

"Hey, you can't go." The man from before grabbed the little guy who was about to leave, and said angrily, "You can't go!" ”

"Yes, yes, you can't let him go."

The anger in the crowd burned to this little guy, who had already panicked when he got the news that the price of rice had skyrocketed by three percent, but now it has doubled directly, and everyone's mood is even more dissatisfied, and they are already extremely annoyed, which is simply to make the life of Huaixian people difficult.

"It's not me who raises the price." Facing the angry crowd, the little servant said with a sad face: "It was ordered by the owner to rise, and I can't help it." ”

The man who grabbed the little guy said angrily: "Say, why is the price rising?" ”

"Yes, why the price increase?" The angry crowd also asked angrily.

The little guy stammered, "Listen. I heard the owner say that it seems to be because of the new King Hongnong recently. ”

Everyone was silent, King Hongnong, that is the vassal king of the Han Dynasty, how can they be compared to these little people, but this King Hongnong has just been here for a few days, and he has made the life of the people of Huaixian difficult, which is really hateful.

The same scene was staged at the entrance of the rest of the rice shops and cloth shops, and in a short period of time, Liu Bian's reputation stinked among the people, and the people of Huaixian County were full of disgust for Liu Bian.

Accompanied by Wang Kuang and others, Liu Wei sat in a restaurant near the window, and heard the scenes on the street and the bustling voices clearly.

"Damn.." Wang Kuang said angrily: "Wang Xian arranged His Highness like this, does he want to rebel? ”

"Rebellion, he doesn't have the qualifications yet." Liu Wei smiled coldly, then leaned forward, a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said to Wang Kuang: "Gongjie, are you interested in gambling?" ”

"Take a gamble?" Wang Kuang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and said with a bitter mouth: "Your Highness, when is this, why do you still have the heart to gamble?" ”

"Lone doesn't want to bet with you." Liu Wei narrowed his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "Gu plans to gamble with the wealthy families in Huai County, since they are so rich, Gu will open a handicap to let them have fun." ”

"This..."Wang Kuang frowned and asked, "Then how does His Highness plan to gamble?" ”

"Come over with your ears on the public festival..."Liu Wei whispered his thoughts next to Wang Kuang's ear.

"What a plan." Wang Kuanghuo Ran got up and said with a smile: "Your Highness is really full of wisdom, and the general will go to prepare." ”

。。。。。。

In the courtyard of the royal mansion, Wang Xian sat by the window, holding a book in his hand, and was enjoying the beautiful scenery outside the window at this time, while listening to the report of his subordinates, with an expression of wisdom beads on his face.

Wang Kuang, the old horseman, thought that he could do whatever he wanted with the support of King Hongnong, real joke, not to mention a powerless King Hongnong, even if he held great power King Hongnong, he had to look at the face of the Wang family when he came to Huaixian, the price of rice doubled, arousing the anger of the people, I want to see what this King Hongnong can do.

Wang Xianzheng thought beautifully, suddenly his heart moved, turned his head to his subordinates and said, "Wait, you said someone opened a handicap?" What handicap? ”

The next man is a slightly chubby middle-aged man named Wang Rui, he is also an old man of the Wang family, and he is loyal to the Wang family.

Wang Rui said: "It's the handicap opened by someone in the East Market, it seems to be a bet on Hongnong Wang to be soft first, or our Wang family to be soft first." ”

"Jokes." Wang Xian snorted coldly: "How can my Wang family be soft first?" What are the odds for this market? ”

Wang Rui said with a smile: "It seems that the odds of Hongnong Wang's soft first are one to three, and the odds of our Wang family's first soft are one to seven." However, basically nine adults are bought, and King Hongnong is soft first. ”

Wang Xian showed a disdainful smile on his face, and the rest of the people who bought the Wang family's soft clothes were probably a group of fools.

"Go, buy a few bets and have fun." Wang Xian commanded casually, and then said solemnly: "Are the banquets ready?" There must be no other than mistakes. ”

"Don't worry, the head of the family, everything is ready."
