The merchants came. Chasing the reckless wasteland, you have to be quick. See the latest Strong> latest chapters read the full text of hua/strong>, the latest chapters visit:. The city's serious need for living materials has finally attracted these real merchants like vultures under the slow spread of consultation in this world. They are more competitive than the people who want to save their rations for money in special times, they have more food, credibility and sanity, and although they have a crazy side, they do not go into a complete confrontation with their customers.

The wall built by Master Zhou to extinguish the fire had been easily torn down, and the people ate the food they got from the merchants, and finally had the leisure to study how the wall came out.

The snake god and Zhou Shu were surrounding the outskirts of the sales procession, and they were all bringing some grains, and the carts stretched for a long time. At this time, these people had already set up an oven on the spot and were baking pasta, and the two originally wanted to have a lively time to buy something to eat, but it took twenty minutes for this row to reach the middle, so Zhou Shu gave up decisively.

Merchants from the towns around Silent Earth City are united, and the convoy holds flags, using the name of Ellemy and her family, pretending to be their team. It seems that these businessmen also know that the Rubble Family in the Jingtu District is unreliable, but normal people can also know with their heels that this kind of thing is absolutely impossible. A group of people who were obviously from the Jingtu District couldn't have been helped by the Glory City Commercial Bank so quickly.

Regardless of their banners, the merchants came, and the prices of the goods on the cars were just over three times the normal price, at least that's what the snake god said. The soldiers were perfectly comfortable with the price, and the locals had a little conscience to sell it for seven or eight times higher.

Some of the fighters were still angry with the 'traitors' on the residents' side, and would rather die than buy their things. Now that the situation had taken a turn for the worse, some boyish warriors bought large piles of scones and held them in cloths, and ran to the 'traitor' to eat them with a smile.

The 'traitors' came their food from the inhabitants, and they promised that they could sell it to the warriors for a higher price if they 'handed over' the food to themselves.

"We are professional businessmen, you people with no business experience will suffer a loss when selling grain, we are here to help you, just a little hard-earned money. ”

The residents who were moved by these words are now arguing with them with black faces and pulling at the clothes of the 'profiteer'.

"If we sell it ourselves, cheaper, we will already make a fortune before the merchants come!

Such a situation is happening everywhere, and it is by no means an isolated phenomenon.

The 'traitors' dared to take up farm tools as weapons against the warriors, but they could not face the surging crowd. They knew that warriors would not use force against them in broad daylight, and it was a gut instinct that warriors had been guarding the bottom line for many years, at least in the eyes of most people. Now they are fighting against the elusive masses of people who are crazy and unscrupulous. Violent and unreasonable.

As long as the merchants who were caught tried to resist the hands that were about to tear their clothes tore apart, they would immediately be knocked to the ground by the flying three or five punches. As long as they fall in the crowd, they will never be able to get up again. The crowd shouted 'lose money' and tore at the 'traitors' who made them hate itchy.

It is because of the greed of these people that hinders their normal profits, and it is a rare opportunity for the whole family to save money and use the food they have suffered so much, and now it has become worthless. (HUA Ads)

The more the residents thought about it, the more angry they became, pulling the hands of the fallen 'traitor' businessman, and gradually dyed blood red. I don't know who started the head and slapped a stone on the face of the 'profiteer'. The other residents found this very relieved and followed suit, and soon one was killed.

When this group of people crossed the 'gate' of killing, what followed was a riot without any scruples. In the face of the 'traitors' and the grain piled up on their carts and the silver coins in the money boxes, a plunder began.

For 'profiteers', they only have one chance to persuade at this time. As long as you can grasp it, you can finally live a life. Luckily, there are some smart people among these people. Before the inhabitants tore them apart, they stepped forward and said the same thing all over the city at about the same time.

"It's not us who are hurting you, it's the merchants! The dividends of the residents of Jingtu City when the soldiers come are the money-making opportunities that belong to our Jingtu City! Now that the money has been earned by outsiders, how can there be such a reason!?"

After Zhou Shu returned to the inn with the snake god, he told the merchant about running over. She also told Elemy that the people were flying her flag.

"It's definitely fake. My caravan wouldn't be stupid enough to do such a thing, and it would be a suicide. ”

'Bo' Lore came down from upstairs and nibbled on the onion that Zhou Shu had brought. He was a little puzzled when he heard this, "What's stupid?"

"It's stupid. Nora Bo'i, a businessman, interjected, "It's a complete suicide." ”

The Four Nations Business Alliance, where he belongs, is composed of the commercial banks of the four northern countries. The merchants who 'mingle' in the national capital are much more 'savvy' than those who have never seen the market in these frontier places. He doesn't have anything to say about this situation now, everything is in front of him, these merchants who come to grab business, no matter whose flag they are flying, I am afraid that they will encounter great difficulties.

That night, another fire blew towards Zhou Shu's side with the help of the northeast wind.

Master Zhou wondered, he is not a professional firefighter, can he sleep well?

The snake god likes this kind of unusual night very much, it is more interesting, and drags Zhou Shu, who doesn't want to go out, to fight the fire. This time the fire was similar to the previous one, and Zhou Shu could almost conclude that it was a deliberate arson act by the same group.

It was the place where the merchants were staying, but this time the fire was relatively close to the location of the inn, so the two firefighters Zhou Shu and the snake god came relatively quickly. The fire is slow, they have seen it before. Soon after the fire was discovered, the merchants simply found an open space to rest and sleep in the carriage. Although the fire startled the horses, the food under their hands was saved intact.

With the previous experience, Zhou Shu and the snake god were able to extinguish the fire faster. The faces of the two of them were shining with a red 'color' in the fire, and they looked very majestic. Still, disaster relief efforts are purely hard work for them.

Back at the hotel, the people who were awakened again were betting with a bunch of small things brought by Zhou Shu. Master Zhou gave everyone some items to relieve boredom, including snacks and small handicrafts. The gamble was started by Nora Bo, who asked everyone to guess whether the merchants would raise or lower the price of food after the arson.

The others are not stupid, they know that this guy is a businessman, and they must know the businessman's mode of action. Everyone except Vanilla made the same choice: 'How you choose, we listen to you'.

As a result, only Vanilla thought that after the grain was burned by the fire, the merchants would raise the price and sell it, and everyone else thought that the price would be lowered.

The little things that Zhou Shu gave everyone to relieve their boredom were bought at the travel store. The small town is also a southern seaside city, and it is somewhat tourism. The snake god stared at the large number of small bits and pieces that were placed in the stalls, as if she was very interested, and she seemed to like this kind of cheap little thing. Zhou Shu didn't understand her thinking pattern anyway, but he still pulled the pile of things together and stuffed them in his box.

Unexpectedly, the snake god played with small bits and pieces for a while, and soon got tired of them, so these useless things were taken out by Zhou Shu and piled up in the corner of the wall and distributed to everyone.

Vanilla actually thinks that she should be more conformist, but then the gamble will not be successful. So she held the idea of earning alone and chose a cold 'door' option.

After Zhou Shu came back from the snake god, he 'handed over' the situation, "The fire is smaller than before, and there seems to be no loss." ”

Vanilla slapped her head on the door when she heard this, "Oops, it looks like I've lost." ”

Nora Boi didn't know if the guilds would not suffer any losses, but he was sure that there would be a large surplus of goods over there, even if they were burned. And they will definitely be frightened by this fire, and there must be residents who intimidate them and scare them away. Therefore, these people will definitely not raise the price to make up for the loss tomorrow, but choose to avoid further losses, reduce the price and sell quickly, and leave after selling.

Early the next morning, the entire White Moon 'female' king battle group was unified. Everyone has been in a hotel for so long like a prison, and if they don't come out for activities, they will have mushroom mold. The snake 'girl' volunteered to stay, so Zhou Shu was rare to be able to walk side by side with Nati in this world.

In terms of gambling, Vanilla lost, and all the gadgets in her hand were lost to everyone. As Nora Boyi had predicted, the merchants cut the price of their grain by 30 percent and organized a more efficient way of selling it. From the previous scooping and selling by weight, it has become a "transaction" link in which the grain is divided into a pile of broken pockets, and the soldiers 'hand' over the money saved, grab the pockets and leave. Moreover, the seller said that the buyer needs to bring his own whole money and not give change.

Still, Nora Boi estimates that it will take at least a week for these guys to sell all the grain. After all, this grain has dropped by thirty percent in one day, and some soldiers who are not very well-off will definitely not buy too much, but prepare the rations for these two days, and then wait for the price to continue to fall. And as long as they are willing to give up profits again, then the warriors will think that their ideas are right, the food will be cheaper and cheaper day by day, and the buying mood will be even lower.

As for why these merchants sell so cheaply, instead of choosing to sell at a high price. I'm afraid they heard that other colleagues also brought a large amount of grain to this side.

The price reduction behavior of the traders further 'provoked' the local residents. The angry crowd is usually irrational, and just as Zhou Shu and his party were feeling the atmosphere of the bustling crowd on the street, the conflict exploded. Even if Zhou Shu was deaf and clear-sighted, he didn't catch the opportunity of the appearance of 'riot' and 'chaos', and when he noticed it, a group of local residents beat up the merchants.

The anger of these people was uncontrollable, and they shouted things like 'You are not welcome in Silent Earth City' as they wield their weapons mainly wooden 'sticks'.

The conflict between the two sides soon escalated to the stage of confrontation, and the merchants seemed to have rushed all the way to the strength and did not 'waste' elsewhere. In the face of the attack, they 'drawn' their weapons from the wooden crates containing the goods, and some of the tattered and simple iron swords actually fought with the crowd dozens of times their size.

Zhou Shu led the team and ran to a safe location to watch the excitement. The warriors are also in a state, and they all honestly give up space and let the two groups of people fight slowly by themselves.

They had little reason to run to such a thing. I hate the locals, but there's no reason to fight for the merchants. At least initially, they didn't find a motive to 'intervene'. Until a young man asked such a question.

"If those traders lose, what will happen to the food they have left?"

The soldiers had planned to take advantage of the 'chaos' to loot, but when you think about it, I'm afraid that the residents have similar ideas. At that time, everyone will probably have to fight, and the force that should be used will still be used.

It seems that it is better to help drive this mob away now.

The fighters rarely go out alone, and almost all of them go out together in a team to prevent being plotted by the opponent. Now these organized people have discussed it a little and made a decisive decision. The organizational unit is more efficient than the individual, and the captain-level figure randomly selects a few fighters and asks them to deal with the mob. Soon, a dozen warriors stood up and pointed small bows at the local residents, who had already killed many people, to warn them and order them to stop their attacks.

"You've driven out our lords, and now you're still commanding us!"

The locals didn't take the fighters seriously at all, after all, there were only a dozen of them, and they didn't seem to be a deterrent. The warriors were not ambiguous at all, seeing that these people refused to listen to a word, and remembered that they had been 'forced' to buy high-priced grain before, they were angry. Some of the less mature warriors let go of their drawn bows and 'fired' their arrows. This behavior was quickly imitated, and a dozen or so fighters began to 'shoot' with their strength in unison, as if they were teammates on the same team.

Zhou Shu is here to see the bow and arrow skills of the northerners again, which is really a bit powerful. The only advantage that the northerners had over the southern giants was the use of weapons. Apparently they had known about this for a long time, and they had made it known that every fighter had a good 'shooting' skill.

How big is the difference between the mob and the warrior before, Zhou Shu can be regarded as having seen it. He originally thought that the Eleven Kingdoms' way of fighting by borrowing divine power would give each resident a very powerful fighting ability. It doesn't seem to be the case, there are no ordinary people who have been trained to be bad at fighting

There seems to be no way to trend their power well.

The mob has no reflexes and strength, but they don't know how to dodge and attack. Faced with an opponent of hundreds of people, the fighters easily suppressed it.

Looking at this situation, Nora Bo'i, who had been acting as a prophet for a while, gave a new prediction. "This Jingtu City, I'm afraid it's going to be completely 'chaotic' in the past few days. ”

When class contradictions turn into bloodshed, the slightest instigation on the part of the population will inevitably lead to larger-scale violence. Two days of arson in a row can prove that such instigators exist.
