Chen Mu's eyes moved slightly, and Master Ye continued to speak.

"That's right, that young man's family can be regarded as a small landlord who makes the small town in the north a little snobbish."

"But even so, they have to rely on the great family to survive, and their food is priced and launched by the master's family."

"The price of food is not too high, I just listened to it, and I think it is reasonable."

"But the great family wants them to carry all the grain to their own house, although the amount of silver given is still the same as before, but it is ......"

Hearing this, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows, and Lord Ye shook his head helplessly, and sighed leisurely.

"But the young man wanted to share a part of the grain and sell it to the people of the neighboring city, and the people of the neighboring city took away the grain in their hands by a more powerful family."

"The family was even more ruthless, and when they took away the food of those people, they only kept a very small part of it for those people."

It was difficult for the people to save this food for the winter, and the young man's family had several relatives living in that city.

When they heard about it, the young man pondered and showed kindness to his family.

He didn't expect it......

And the merchant families of this city are ready to hand over all the grain in their hands, just as the merchant families of that city are.

The young man's family was a small landowner, so he could keep more food, which would be enough for them to survive the winter.

But the young man's and his family's plans were disrupted.

The young man and his family had promised that the people of that city would bring the grain in two days.

Now that this incident had suddenly happened, the young man also realized it.

Most of these merchant families had a purpose, and he didn't want to fulfill them, but he also wanted to help the people of that city.

So the two sides quarreled in the city.

The young man wondered if he could ask the people of these families what their intentions were, and if their intentions were reasonable, he would be willing to break his promise and give them his food.

After all, these people are the soil emperors in this city, and their family has to rely on these people for development.

If these people are not happy and take away half of the land in his hands, then their family will not be able to afford to eat.

But the steward in front of him didn't want to say anything.

After Chen Mu learned everything, he nodded silently, and then turned his head to look in the direction of the shop.

Seeing the steward standing in front of the shop, he sighed and turned to leave.

The young man jumped to his feet angrily, pointing at the people in the shop and scolding.

Chen Mu also frowned.

He thought about it for a while, and simply asked the young man to invite him to his tea stall, and the young man didn't know the identities of Chen Mu and Lord Ye and the others.

I only heard that Chen Mu and Lord Ye had a way to help him solve the grain matter, so he immediately came to the tea stall.

Although he didn't know the identity and status of the two, and he looked at these two people, not like the people in their city, but he could see that these two people were dressed quite extraordinarily.

The young man pondered for a moment, and then explained the reason for his quarrel with the steward.

The reason for the quarrel was exactly the same as what Master Ye had just seen, and when he finished speaking, the young man was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"I have heard that all the landlords in this city except me have given them a lot of grain, and I don't know what they are going to do, and I almost suspect that they are trying to raise private soldiers!"

At this, the young man silently closed his mouth, and he looked around in fear.

Seeing the people around him, no one noticed the movement on his side, and he noticed that he relaxed a little.

This is a big deal, and you can't talk nonsense.

The young man didn't know that the two people sitting in front of him were powerful people, and he was only a merchant who was curious about the matter of collecting grain, so the young man shook his head silently.

These two people are from the outer city, and they only met him in Pingshui, and this young man is not worried that these two people will know his identity.

Leaking out what he had just said, he simply sat down in front of Chen Mu and Master Ye and continued.

"Seriously, I really doubt that they took that grain for some other purpose."

"I heard that they bought the barren courtyards that had been built for a long time in our back city, and hoarded grain in the barren courtyards."

"There are even plans to build a new yard behind the deserted courtyard to stock up on more food."

"There is a barracks not far from our city, that is, more than ten miles back from the deserted courtyard, and the general of the barracks is an insurrectionary soldier!"

The young man winced his eyebrows as he said this.

Chen Mu was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that the young man would already think like this.

But then again, the situation that the young man said is indeed worth paying attention to.

It's just that as soon as he found out about the situation in the city in advance, he also knew that those people were hoarding grain only to raise the price of grain in the future, not to use the grain to feed private soldiers.

Although he also knows. If you don't pay close attention to the situation in the border city.

Sooner or later, the question that this young man was talking about would arise.

Seeing that Chen Mu didn't seem to believe him, the young man pursed his lips and said, and didn't continue to say anything.

Chen Mu asked about the situation. After a few more gossip with the young man, he asked about the specific harvest of the fields in the small northern town, and the young man said a number, and Chen Mu was quite satisfied.

This is not yet a bumper harvest year, and the harvest has already produced a lot of grain, which is enough for the daily life of the people in the small southern towns.

"But then again, if you two come to our city, if you want to collect food, I'm afraid you won't be able to."

"After all, as I said, the landlords in our city have handed over the grain to the merchants in the city, and now the grain in everyone's hands is not enough for themselves."

"Well, what do those people think? If I could let me know what they were up to, I wouldn't be so annoyed. ”

The young man sighed again, and Chen Mu nodded silently.

He didn't continue to say anything, but only glanced at Lord Ye who was standing aside.

Seeing this, Lord Ye sent the young man away.

After a while, Lord Ye came back, Chen Mu and Lord Ye stood up together and walked towards the shop where the young man had just been.

Inside the shop, the steward asked people to count the grain in the shop, and Chen Mu was walking to the front of the shop, when he suddenly heard a sound of harmony from the other direction of the long street.

He turned his head and found that someone was coming in a carriage and horse, Chen Mu's eyes moved slightly, it seemed that the steward in this shop was preparing to hire a carriage and horse to transport the grain away.

It didn't turn out to him, and the carts and horses stopped in front of the shop.

noticed that Chen Mu and Master Ye were standing in front of the shop and did not move.

The few people who were driving the carriage and horses also called out to Chen Mu and Lord Ye, and waved their hands to the two, wanting to drive the two away.

Chen Mu and Master Ye still stood still.

Seeing this, a strong man stepped forward dissatisfied.

He walked in front of Lord Ye and stretched out his hand to push in the direction of Lord Ye.
