Chapter 249: The Second Protest

Seeing that the people believe in themselves so much, Chengda's heart is happy, and when the time comes, he will take the people to protest, and there will be endless money.

"Cheng, I heard that if we protest, those officials will arrest us and put us in prison, and they will not let our children study"

As soon as these words came out, many people suddenly fell silent, worried, and no longer as enthusiastic as they were just now.

"yes, what if those officials don't let their children study"

When many people heard Yun Xuan's words, they began to discuss, and what they were most afraid of was affecting their children's reading.

For the poor, children are the only hope for families.

"Your question is very good, I believe that the villagers also have this consideration, I can seriously tell you, there is no need to think like this at all"

Master Cheng looked at the person who asked the question just now, looked at Yun Xuan, his eyes flashed a hint of gloom, and then continued.

"Don't worry, if only us go around and protest, those who are in power will definitely arrest us and make an example.

But this time, it's not just us, tens of thousands of people in the west of the city, we people stand up to protest together, so many people, do you think those officials will arrest us?

If they arrest us all, they will still give us food, and who will do the menial work in the national capital?

Those who are rich, or those who are officials?

It's not that we want to protest and wander away, it's that the profiteers are so black-hearted that they force us to have no way out.

We don't do it for ourselves, but for our children, for our wives, for our parents at home, so that they can have something to eat, we have no choice

I will lead the charge, you are not afraid"

"Not afraid, not afraid"

The people were enthusiastic by the words of Lord Cheng, and they raised their hands to cheer together, and the scene was quite spectacular.

Yun Xuan was surprised, he didn't expect this person to have two more moments, and he would get to the point of the problem at once.

Sure enough, without two brushes, he is not even qualified to be a bad guy.

As Cheng said, if dozens of people protest and wander away, they can still be forcibly suppressed.

However, in the entire west of the city, tens of thousands of people marched together to protest, this force was enough to shake the foundation of the country.

No one would dare to easily clash with the people, and if they provoked the people, the matter would be serious.

"Folks, you go back first and tell those who have no food to tell that as long as we are united, those officials will not dare to bully us"

In the impassioned and exciting words of Chengda, the people have strengthened their belief that they should follow in the footsteps of Chengda.

Frowning slightly, this is not good news, Yun Xuan then left with the people.

"The eldest brother is so powerful, he calmed those people all at once"

"If you're not powerful, can you call it big brother?"

"Hahaha, come to drink wine and eat meat" A few sycophants blew, and the eyebrows of adults danced.

As the sun set, the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the cracks in the dense woods, speckled on Yun Xuan's face.

"Master," Wang Lin stepped forward and said respectfully.

"How is Lu Yi doing these days?"

Lu Yi was the one who sold fakes, Yun Xuan accepted him and let him come to Yun Mansion.

"Master, Lu Yi has been staying in the room these days, and he doesn't like to talk to others."

"Well, what's going on with those kids?"

"I heard from the teacher that this group of children has average talent and is a little slow to learn"

"It's okay, they just need to be literate, you go and get busy"

Yun Xuan walked to the courtyard, where was the forbidden area divided by Yun Xuan.

What caught the eye was Qing Pian sitting on the swing, looking pensive.

Yun Xuan didn't bother her, but there were some things to know about Nameless.

"Is there anything unusual about her these days?"

"I found her spying on Madame"

Ever since Yun Xuan asked Nameless to spy on that person, Nameless could always be seen secretly spying on Madame in the middle of the night.

"Keep an eye on her, if there is anything unfavorable to the mansion or the lady, directly erase it and dispose of the body"

Ling Yunxuan didn't expect that she would have such careful thoughts, but she didn't know if it was purely from herself, or if someone was behind her instructions.

"I found that Madame's martial arts are somewhat similar to those of the Iron Guard, and Madame seems to be in a hurry lately."

As the most powerful iron guard of Yunfu, although the number of shots is not much, but Nameless is a master of the middle grade of the realm.

She is very sensitive to the aura of a warrior, and she feels a threat in the body of the iron guard.

And when teaching his wife to learn martial arts, Nameless found that his wife's strength was not much weaker than his own.

The traces of the attack are somewhat similar to those of the Iron Guard, just like the master and apprentice.

Hearing this, Yun Xuan pondered, when he used his heart pass that day, he knew the relationship between the iron guard and Qing Lian, and the other Yun Xuan did not have an in-depth understanding.

As early as when he was in the Desire Immortal Tower, Yun Xuan knew that Qing Lian had a mysterious master who had been planning something in the national capital.

Especially this time he mixed in, obviously intending to use Yunfu to achieve his goal.

Come here, and something will say to you, "Since Qing Pian wants to be free, then I will give her this freedom."

Just look at the specific intentions of the Qingtie guards and the identity of Qing Pity.

"Why are you here" Qing Lian looked at Yun Xuan who came over and got up to greet him.

Yun Xuan sat on the swing, then slapped his thigh, understood it with pity, and did it directly.

"I miss you, so come and see" Yun Xuan hugged Qing Pian, the two snuggled together, and the swing was swaying slightly.

Qing Lian didn't speak, and the two were quietly together, enjoying a good time.

The glow of the sun, through the branches and leaves of the trees swaying in the breeze, forms a dappled light and shadow, like broken gold and silver, shining and eye-catching.

"Thirty Wen, why don't you go and grab it?"

"One price a day, why don't you sell it for one tael of silver and a catty?"

The people who came to buy rice angrily denounced the two major trading houses, and even disregarded the life and death of the people in order to earn silver.

Thirty yuan, put it before, it was already able to buy ten catties of rice, but now it can only buy one catty of rice, which simply forces the people to death.

"Hey, don't say it, tomorrow we will have a tael of silver and a pound of rice," the people laughed.

"Hey, hurry up and buy more, otherwise you won't be able to afford it then"

The people were dejected, and although they were very dissatisfied with these profiteers, they had to bow their heads under the roof.

Zhong Xiu stood in the trading house, looking at the people buying food in front of him, with smiles in his eyes.

As long as you sell these grains, you can earn an extra million taels, which is the income of several years in the past.

"Lord Cheng, you have to help us, the price of this food has risen tenfold, we really can't afford it"

"Yes, Lord Cheng, those merchants don't care if we live or die."

The people ran to Cheng Daren one after another, hoping that Cheng Daren would give them advice, and if they continued like this, they would be starved to death.

Compared to the first time here, this time there are twice as many people, and the crowd is full of people.

"Don't worry, if those merchants don't sell grain at a lower price tomorrow, then we don't have to be polite to them, we protest and wander away."

"Protest wandering, we listen to adults"

After an impassioned speech, Cheng sent the people away, and then left the residence alone.

However, he didn't expect that a pair of eyes were staring at him at the moment.

"Master, today we earned more than a thousand taels"

The housekeeper said excitedly that this day was better than the previous ten days of business.

"You go and say hello to the people of Changjing Commercial Bank, the price of tomorrow's grain is forty yuan a catty"

After waiting for so long, finally waiting for this day, Ouyang Yan has been looking forward to this day for a long time.

The country does not need three major commercial houses, two is enough.

Following.

"Why don't you go and rob the money, a pound of rice actually costs forty yuan, do you want us to live?"

"Brothers, since they don't want us to live, then we shouldn't be polite to them."

"What do you want to do, stop them for me"

In one night, the price of food has exceeded tenfold, which is unacceptable to the people, and they are furious.

Many people wanted to snatch food through atrocities, and then faced with this scene, the two major trading houses seemed to be ready.

Just as the butler was speaking, nearly twenty strong subordinates came out of the trading house, standing at the door of the trading house, shocking the people.

"If you dare to steal food, you are a thief, it is illegal, we can report to the police and arrest you," the butler said loudly.

"Brothers, don't get excited, don't grab food, let's go to Lord Cheng and let Lord Cheng make the decision for us"

There are shrewd people who know that this kind of behavior is not right to grab food, and it is not good to be caught in it when the time comes.

"Yes, find Lord Cheng" The people rushed back one after another, and let Lord Cheng make the decisions for the people.

"Big brother, it's not good, the people are protesting"

When Guan Bao knew what happened at the door of Changjing Commercial Bank, his expression changed greatly, and then he found Guan Xin.

"Don't worry, I already know, I've already arranged it"

Just yesterday, when Yun Xuan came back from Master Cheng, he had a brief chat with Guan Xin.

Yun Xuan predicted that the people would definitely not be able to accept the price of grain in the past two days and chose to riot.

Let Guan Xin bring in the hidden grain when the people rioted, and announced that Xingyuan Commercial Bank had bought grain.

"We want to eat, we want food"

Soon, hundreds of people began to wander around the capital, led by Lord Cheng and his men.

More and more people are gradually joining it, and how much hatred the people have for the two major trading houses, how fast they can join the wandering team.

In just a few moments, the number of wandering people has exceeded 1,000, and the number has been increasing at a rapid pace.

They began to wander around the national capital, constantly putting pressure on the officials, and after Fu Yin learned the news, he rushed over with the government soldiers as soon as possible.

Looking at so many people, Fu Yin's scalp was numb.

If one is not handled well, the black gauze hat is not guaranteed to be the lightest punishment.

"People, this official is Fu Yin, if you have any grievances to protest to this official, don't wander around to protest," Fu Yin said loudly from a high place.

"We want to eat, the price of grain in the national capital is already forty wen a catty, and we can't afford to eat"

The people shouted one after another, and the hysterical roar shook Fu Yin's body, and his eardrums were violently vibrating.

"The official already knows about this matter, and the official will give you a satisfactory explanation, and please go back and calm down first."

"You rulers know that we poor people have been deceived and that we will not go back until the price of grain falls."

"Folks, we want food, we want to eat"

Under the bewitchment of Lord Cheng, the people didn't pay attention to Fu Yin at all, but continued to wander around, waving their flags and shouting, and didn't take Fu Yin seriously at all.

Just when Fu Yin was sweating profusely, there were voices in the distance.

"Good news, good news, the grain of Xingyuan Commercial Bank has reached the treasury"

"Let's go buy grain, and Xingyuan Commercial Bank's grain will be sold at a low price"

The protesting people were stunned for a moment, looking at the people who ran to buy rice, with a blank face, is this rice coming?
