In the city of Kyoto, panic continues to ferment and spread.

The only good news at this stage was that the samurai team had temporarily controlled the spread, and under Yin Wa's analysis, the source was quickly found to be the Hachiman River that runs through Kyoto. Under the violent threat of the samurai, no one dared to approach it again.

As for the situation in the city, it also temporarily controlled several locations where the plague broke out under strong pressure.

That's the only good news.

In other areas, even more shocking scenes are staged.

People from house to house are frantically scrambling for food, and men, women, and children are all taking out the last of their savings to stock up on food.

The price of food has risen and continues to rise. Originally, it was a pound of grain, but it became five dollars a pound in half an hour, and after half an hour, it became seven dollars a pound, or even more than ten dollars a pound......

Originally, although the grain in the world was coarse grain, and occasionally there was a lot of chaff, at least all of it was still grain.

Until this batch was robbed, the grain replaced at the back was visibly mixed with sawdust and straw crumbs, and even if it was such grain, the price was still more than ten times that of before.

Countless people watched the price of food rise like a high-rise building, and even directly came to the price that they could not afford to starve to death, and the sense of despair and unparalleled panic spread rapidly.

Originally, they could buy ten catties of coarse rice with the money they held, but now, they can only buy one catty of rice with nearly half of the wood chips. Winter is coming soon, food prices will continue to rise, and countless families have lost hope of living and crying when they look at this food price.

A large number of people's fat and ointment were harvested by these families, and their consciences not only did not hurt, but they also wanted to increase their efforts, and colluded from top to bottom to start a more profiteering monopoly.

The daimyo of Kyoto has been wiped out, at least during this period of time, these small and medium-sized families have become the emperor of the soil, how can the Fujiwara family, who has just gained power, manage so many things?

Even if the Fujiwara family is held accountable in the future, the whole Kyoto family is taking advantage of the fire to fight, and the Fujiwara family, who has just ascended to the throne, still dares to be enemies of the entire Kyoto family?

……

Kyoto, Arashiyama Taisha Shrine, and the Fujiwara family were still discussing internally at this time.

"The contemptible people think that we can show favor to some of the families, and then suppress the other part, and collect the grain in their hands at a low price for us to hoard ourselves. We can even sell some of the power of the Kyoto daimyo to them and let them fight for it, and we will reap the benefits of the fishermen. It's just like the strategy of killing three soldiers in ancient books. ”

This time it was Fujiwara Kanenaga who spoke as the head of the split family, and this plan was approved by most people.

The so-called two peaches kill three warriors, that is, two peaches are given to three strong men, and it is said that only the strongest two are given, and the three strong men die because of the fight. It is the most classic means of killing people with a knife.

Converted to such a scenario, give several family daimyo other powers and positions, let them fight and compete. The Fujiwara family obtains higher benefits.

And Fujiwara Kanenaga is a standard scholar, he bowed slightly to Li Wei, and said: "My lord, a hundred-year-old shogunate, a thousand-year-old family, the contemptible people think that this time we really need to get out for a while. When someone gets this mess right, it's not too late for us to do it. ”

For a scholar like him, everything is from the perspective of the family to see any problem, and for them, the family is everything.

Besides, if the Fujiwara family retreats bravely, they can get out completely, and they can even get out after biting a large piece of meat. When the plague and famine were over, they would even be able to start staking their lands and directly annex the entire land of Kyoto to themselves.

If we ignore the fact that the Genji shogunate is likely to attack Kyoto directly, Fujiwara Kanenaga's approach can be said to be the best course of action from the perspective of the family.

In this era, although there is no caste system of a world power in Levi's previous life, things similar to the Jiupin Zhongzheng system have been learned 100%, not a caste system, but it is similar. To paraphrase what Levi said in his previous life, the son of a banker will become a banker, the son of a politician will become a politician, and the son of a doctor who is full of money will only become a doctor who is full of money in the end.

"I see, you all think that you should preserve your strength, so how to deal with the samurai attacking from the shogunate's side? Just our more than a hundred samurai and a few dozen muskets? Levi said.

"Lord, although our Fujiwara family is down, it is still the top wealthy nobles in Kyoto, and General Yuan does not dare to do it directly to us. In that case, he would face the exclusion and suppression of other nobles, after all, the daimyo of the other vassal capitals were also nobles. It won't tear the skin completely. Fujiwara Kanenaga said in front of Levi at this time,

"At most, we only need to let a part of the benefits, plus some means similar to marriage, suffice. Everyone, you can even marry the princess of the Gen family again, as long as Princess Chihime doesn't mind. ”

Levi frowned directly, he turned his head slightly to look at Fujiwara Chihime, and found that she did not react, but was recording very seriously, as if he thought that this situation was also taken for granted.

Are some of the systems and customs here so messy?

"I can see that you are looking at things from your own point of view, pinning your hopes on negotiating with the mercy of your enemies, and this does not need to be considered. I will tell me my purpose, we will solve the plague, we will deal with the famine, we will eat Kyoto, and all those who dare to stretch out their hands at this time, I will break all their hands. Levi said directly, "You don't need to think about anything else, just tell me how to solve the problem and eat Kyoto at the same time." ”

"Lord! Don't be too ambitious, unless you are an enemy of the entire Kyoto clan, otherwise it is always the best choice to preserve your strength. One man said right away.

"Lord, at this time, we must not be enemies of the entire Kyoto clan, otherwise we will really not be able to move an inch. As for civilians, if they die, they die. Another member of the family also came out and said.

"All Kyoto families? However, it is just some local chickens, tile dogs, and dry bones in the mound, so that they can only eat expensive rice if they live in Kyoto. It has only been a few days since the plague began, and the price of rice has increased more than ten times, which is really good! Levi was simply amused by the operation of this group of families.

"Everybody......

Some of the family members wanted to say something, but they were glared back by Levi's eyes as if they were going to kill.

"I'm going to raid them all, I'm just asking you, can you take over? You just have to answer me, can or can't? Levi didn't put forward his ideas to these people who only had their eyes in the family.

My Healing Game

It's not the same era, it's not the same three views and insights, and these insects are just tools that Levi uses as cattle and horses when he really doesn't have the manpower to use them now.

"Can ......" The people who split the family looked at Levi's eyes, and they silently didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Then I'll do it myself." Levi just said coldly.
