The next morning, Hill and Harreste set off in a horse-drawn carriage from the hotel to the Astorian family's granary. Although the distance is not far, the carriage is a status symbol at this time, so it is essential.

On top of the carriage, Hill held the sleepy blue-and-white kitten in his arms, and Harrester held a boxy box. The outside of the box was covered with white oiled paper, and a faint smell of resin gum escaped from the inside. The appearance is decent, so that people can't see any characteristics.

There were already a lot of people gathered in front of the oversized granary, all of whom came to see the excitement, but there were also other traveling merchants looking for business opportunities. Large brown bags of wheat flour are encapsulated in delicate white paper bags and laid out in warehouses waiting for their owners to arrive.

The black horses stopped proudly in front of the granary, and the maiden in the black princess dress and the butler in the black and white stripes stepped down.

It was the first time that Harreste had worn such formal clothes, and he thought that he would never be bound by the world, that he would always be unrestrained, and that he would always look the most natural when he went to meet the king.

However, yesterday Hill was puffing up, and he bought work clothes and put them on as he was instructed.

Ofrey Andin arrived early, standing on the left side of the large granary with two maids, waiting for the answer Hill had promised the night before.

Dolph Jay also stood neatly in front of the granary, doing the guiding work, and he didn't dare to slack off on Hill's arrival.

On top of an unknown tavern next to it, a young man in straw sandals casually chewed the straw in his mouth, looking with interest at the people gathered in the black press below. He is the unseen head of the Vane family, the youngest of the Big Three, and probably the most individual in town.

Hill lifted her skirt to the left and right and walked towards the door of the granary, and the crowd automatically made way for it.

"Aren't those the two young people who bought smoothies at [Xiaoice House] a few days ago?" Someone in the crowd had already recognized the two who had turned into them, and they were surprised and more remorseful. They thought if they could come forward and do a favor at that time......

The man with a beard on his face also came, and even in the crowd of black oppressors, he was still very conspicuous with his tall figure. Looking at the princess and the butler walking towards the granary, the middle-aged man sighed, and the sullenness that he had held for a few days finally dissipated.

Servility can be easy at critical moments.

Hill was walking on the gravel road, his platform shoes clattering on it. Before he reached the door of the granary, Jie Jie took the initiative to greet him, and he was very respectful to the thousand gold coins, and he did not dare to slack off against his master.

"Lord Hill, the amount of wheat flour has been counted! The number is in the early 110,000 bags, and I will give you the whole number of 110,000 bags. ”

The girl turned her head sideways to look inside the granary and nodded, the neatly stacked wheat flour looked comfortable, but she couldn't afford to buy it.

"Well, well done. But before I take these things with me, I want to say hello to the people in town, after all, this is their ration for the quarter. Hill's voice was not small and loud, and everyone around him could hear it.

Jie Jie nodded in agreement, he felt that this request was very reasonable. The middle-aged man at the head of the chicken nest sent his fourth-order young adult son to push out a high platform from the tool vault on the side of the warehouse, and motioned to Hill, "Please use it."

Harrester had been taught another lesson last night, and he was confident about today's event.

The girl walked up to the platform with a lazy and sleepy kitten, and Harrest followed with a white box. The residents in the audience, Andin and Jay in front of the warehouse, and the Venn family master in the tavern, all stared at their every move.

When the girl came to the stage, she stood still, and Harrester walked to the front instead. Under the gaze of everyone, the young man placed the white box on the ground, just under the sun at nine o'clock.

When the lid of the box was lifted, a square block of ice condensed in the boy's hand, and was placed in the white box in the midst of everyone's confused eyes.

When the boy had done all this, he retreated, and Hill stepped forward.

The girl looked around, and she was satisfied with the panic that loomed on the faces of the residents.

Coughing lightly twice, a girl's voice came from the silent air: "Hello everyone, villagers! We are traveling merchants from the Kingdom of Longyuan, and as you know, today we will buy all the wheat in this town and then go to the seaside to do business with the coastal dwellers! The reason why we buy such a large amount of wheat flour is because we are doing a big business, and the trading of thousands of gold coins is just a common thing for us! ”

Halfway through the girl's speech, someone below suddenly interjected: "But if you buy all the wheat flour, what will we do next?" Most of the wheat we grow here is winter wheat, except for a small amount of green wheat in the paddy fields, and the next harvest will not be until May next year! ”

The one who spoke was an old man with a straw hat, his appearance was very simple, and the wrinkles on his face and the deposited melanin showed the vicissitudes he had experienced. Not long ago, because he was in urgent need of money, he harvested all the winter wheat he had sown last year and then sold it, and now he only has spring wheat that is still filling the grain and the winter wheat seeds of the next year...... If the wheat is bought, his family of five will face the dilemma of having no wheat to cook.

But Hill thought further, knowing that if she did buy the wheat, the residents would face more than just a wheat-free meal. At that time, because of the shortage of staple foods, the price of supplementary foods will also increase exponentially, and when the time comes, the famine will first sweep the poorest people in this town, and then spread upwards. But she never had the idea of buying the wheat, not only did she have no money, but she also had nowhere to put it.

"Folks, I know that you will face some kind of dilemma if I buy all the staple foods, so I am standing here to solve everyone's problems first. Now I want you to buy your own rations first, and then I will buy all the rest of the wheat! Hill spoke with sincerity, and with her harmless appearance, probably no one present would not believe her.

When the residents below heard this, they immediately talked about it, obviously not expecting that the traveling merchant who lived on money would actually think about them. The Big Three were also surprised when they heard this, they didn't expect Hill, who looked like a god on the outside, to be so pure on the inside.

"You can buy it, we are not short of money! We'll buy the rest of the purchase and continue our acquisition work in the next town! Hill looked at everyone a little disbelieving, and she took out ten bags of copper coins from her necklace and threw them down on the spot.

The audience immediately rushed into a ball, and the ten bags of copper coins were quickly picked up by the lucky guy.

"I want ten bags! No, I want twenty bags, and the family's ration until May of the following year is no joke! The uncle in the audience was shrewd and capable, and he picked up dozens of copper coins in the crowd, and immediately raised his fist and raised his head and said.

"Twenty bags, I'll want twenty bags too!" The fat lady below, another person, also immediately raised her hand to indicate that her fat son could eat a lot in one meal, and it would not be good if he was hungry.

"I'm a traveling merchant passing by, and I've made a fortune by reselling wheat, so please bring me a thousand bags!" It was the bearded man who spoke that day, he didn't lie, he had been in the wheat business all along, but not to the sea, but to the mountains. The middle-aged man was holding a white talisman-shaped magic guide in his hand, and it was not difficult to guess that it should be storage equipment.

More and more people below raised their hands, and many sent messages to the villagers who were not yet aware. In an instant, there was a rush of wheat buying in the town, and Harrest couldn't help but snicker as he watched the crowd rushing for wheat flour excitedly. Hill's ability index in his heart unconsciously went up to a new level.

"Is it really good for them to buy this wheat flour?" Harrest asked quietly as he stood behind Ciel.

"It's better than being taken by the uncles for a drink or patronizing a young girl, right?" Hill replied with an unchanged smile.
