Hou Sui looked straight at Hou Fangyu: "Chaozong!" ”

Hou Fangyu held the handrails on the platform of the Qixiang Pavilion with both hands, looking at the street with an anxious expression. Now, when Hou Sui heard Hou Fangyu shouting like this, he suddenly turned his head with a sigh, looked at Hou Sui, and said unfavorably: "Father...... Father's ...... Maybe, maybe still on the way......"

It is true that the social soldiers did not come. They gathered on the school field outside Caomen, waiting for Zhu Cihong's order.

From the very beginning, the Wumen Society soldiers were already in Zhu Cihong's layout. I don't know how many people's lives have been saved by the five taels and one stone of cheap grain sold by Fang En, and I don't know how many people and several families have been owed, and I don't know how many head offices have owed monstrous favors. Wu Lian's 200 stone grain stamps were certainly tempting, but the cheap grain sold from Fang En's hands was not only thousands of stones, and each head office received more than 1,000 stone of grain and rice from Fang En.

Moreover, although the grain sold by Fang En was of inferior quality, it cleverly prevented the head office and the president from taking it out to fill their pockets and sell it, so that the five thousand soldiers of Kaifeng firmly remembered Fang En's kindness. The Kaifeng Society soldiers are not ordinary soldiers, most of them are middle-class people with thin family property. Most of the social soldiers are well-informed and have many relationships, how can they not know that the six grain banks behind the Hou family are raising prices and reluctant to sell, making a fortune in the country?

In this way, even if the Wumen Headquarters wants to take refuge in Hou Sui, there will never be a social soldier who agrees.

"Don't struggle." Zhu Cihong watched this scene calmly and continued: "Qi Xian, one hundred households in the Supervisory Battalion, has already blocked the exits of Ximen Street with three hundred soldiers. In a few moments, Hengxin will cooperate with our actions and reopen business. From now on, Hengxin will sell cash food. The common people who really come to buy grain can be let go, but those who have empty hands but shout to disturb the order will be arrested! If you find out who is behind the trouble. This official will do what the superintendent wishes, and will never show favoritism! Zhu Cihong waved his hand lightly. looked at Wang Xie and said, "Wang County Order can take the Daobiao Camp to do it." ”

Wang Xie, who is strong, bowed down to receive the order.

Seeing this, Hou Sui became excited: "Don't do it!" Who gives you power. Why arrest people! ”

"Naturally, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince authorized the officials to do it, and the Governor also knows about this matter." Zhu Cihong looked at Hou Sui quietly.

Without the order of the crown prince, how could Wang Xie, who was strong in strength, succumb?

When Hou Sui heard this, his momentum suddenly fell. But he quickly boosted his fighting spirit and said angrily: "Qin Xia! Do you think that you have gone against the grain and broken the rules and used troops to win people's hearts? ”

Zhu Cihong didn't look at it, and the dog that bit didn't bark. Hou Sui screamed hard, but he didn't have the strength to bite.

Side. Wu Shijiao moved his steps back, trying to sneak away. Seeing Zhu Cihong go crazy, his plans all failed. Everyone thought of the worst.

That's ...... Zhu Cihong is going to use troops to raid his home to make up for the shortfall!

It's just that when Zhu Cihong's gaze fell on Wu Shijiao's body, Wu Shijiao felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, and the cold was seeping through.

"The prefect doesn't need to be anxious." Zhu Cihong said leisurely: "Xiaguan didn't plan to raid the six major grain stores. The people who speculated on grain and rice, hoarded grain and were reluctant to sell it, covered it up well, and the lower officials really did not catch the evidence for a while. On the premise that there is no evidence, the lower officials will not break the rules and laws because of this. But so. The official has this confidence and will solve the business matter with business. ”

As soon as Zhu Cihong said this, everyone cheered up. This shows that Zhu Cihong did not plan to raid his home!

But then. Zhu Cihong's words made everyone feel chills.

"From now on, the food price in Kaifeng City will return to normal and rational. Two days later, Hengxin's cash grain was only sold for six taels of silver and one stone. As for the issue of food stockpiling...... Neither adult has to worry. All food stamps on the time. Not today or tomorrow. Soon, the food shortage in the city will be truly solved. Zhu Cihong smiled. Turn around and leave and go downstairs.

Seeing Zhu Cihong leaving. Wu Shijiao, Hou Sui and others all looked at each other, not knowing how to think.

At this time. Wang Qianzhi, who had not appeared all this time, quietly rushed over and said, "Supervisor." The soldiers of the five sects all gathered at the West Gate, and the main force of Wang Xie's Daobiao Battalion also gathered at the West Gate. And also...... And the whole army of Shandong Town is waiting in line in Ximen City! ”

"Is this going to be a decisive battle?" Hou Sui said blankly: "But the problem of grain and rice has not been solved yet, so he Qin Xia is not afraid of cutting off the cooking halfway?" Then the soldiers will rebel! ”

Wu Shijiao also hesitated: "Do you still want to raid the house?" But since ...... If you say that it won't be like this, you must not have to go back on your word, right? ”

After a while, Wu Lian ran back and said, "Uncle." Everything is in the way of the house, and there are no officers and soldiers in the grain stores to disturb them. It's just that...... It's just that Hengxin Commercial Banks everywhere have hung up signs, saying that they will be temporarily closed, and the price will be reduced to six taels and one stone after two days. Now not only the six of us are panicking, but many relatives and friends in the city are panicking! ”

"What a price reduction! So what should we do if we buy a food stamp of 20,000 stones? That's all the savings of our Hou family! Hou Fangyu exclaimed: "Impossible, impossible!" Now the food stamps on sale in the market have reached at least 100,000 stones. Even if the whole army in Shandong Town doesn't eat or drink, there won't be so much grain and rice in the Henan Treasury again! If it's not for us, how can it be sold? ”

Hou Sui also frowned: "It's really wrong, now that the soldiers in Shandong Town are moving, and they are even more anxious to use grain, how can they use military food to stabilize grain prices?" What's the solution...... Dare to reduce the price to six taels and one stone! ”

The Hou family embezzled military rations and raised nearly one million taels of silver, and now, all of them have been spent to hoard grain and rice and hoard food stamps. After all, these things are much more valuable than gold and silver in Kaifeng City, and they are hard currency. But now, if the price of grain really drops to the point of six taels and one stone, the Hou family will lose all their money!

You must know that nearly one million taels of silver is not only the savings of the Hou family for generations, but also a patchwork and borrowing, which took a lot of favor and effort. When the time comes, not only will the future of the Hou family's father and son be ruined, but their lives will be desperate, and the entire family will fall apart.

"If we want to reduce the price to six taels and one stone to solve the food crisis in Kaifeng, and to ensure the military supply of tens of thousands of soldiers, even if we have copied the six major grain stores, the 100,000 stone grain storage is not enough! Besides, didn't he say that he wouldn't raid his house? Wu Shijiao muttered, and he also understood the seriousness of the situation: "How can it be so self-contradictory, it must be Qin Xia's bluff!" ”

Wu Shijiao also had a feeling of impending disaster. Although the silver taels thrown into by their Wu family are not as close to one million as Hou Sui, they also have a small investment of 400,000 taels! A lot of them are borrowed. If this is lost, this prefect will be unable to do it in an instant, and those wealthy families who have been borrowed money will also become life-seeking ghosts! (To be continued......)
