A month later, Wanping County Yanei.

In the morning, a sturdy figure ran in from the gate in a panic.

"County honor, county honor, something is wrong!"

While running, he shouted at the same time, and everyone in the entire county government could hear it!

It wasn't until he entered Guo An's public house that his voice quieted down.

"Yu Bantou, what's wrong?"

In the public house, Guo An asked Yu Huowang who ran in.

Yu Huowang is the head of the Zhuang squad in the Yanai of Wanping County, and there are more than 50 people under his command, who are responsible for guarding the yamen, warehouses, prisons and other places, and at the same time, more than 10 people are also divided to patrol the streets of urban and rural areas.

However, in Beiping Mansion, there are the guards of King Yan, as well as the army in Beiping Mansion, the officials of Beiping Mansion, and the officials of Wanping County whose daily work is very easy.

Therefore, under Guo An's instructions, Yu Huowang, the leader of the strong class, often took some people to patrol the streets.

The purpose is, of course, those foreign merchants.

In this regard, Yu Huowang is naturally very positive.

Although he is the leader of the Zhuang class, he is also a citizen of Wanping County, and in this place where the clan regional concept is extremely strong, many interests are colluding.

And those reclaimed fields outside Wanping County will also have his share.

Naturally, those traders who want to take advantage of the opportunity are deeply hated!

"County Zun, twenty big ships came to Haizi Wharf just now, and they are loaded with grain!

Even, some strong men who carried it also found some iron shovels and shovels from some large wooden boxes, at least tens of thousands of pieces! ”

Yu Huowang said with a solemn expression.

Guo An looked overjoyed, "What a good thing!" ”

"A great thing?"

Yu Huowang was stunned for a moment, he had heard Guo An's plans for those merchants before, and he had always regarded those merchants as tigers, no matter what they did, they would have bad intentions.

Now, when Guo An said this, his brain was a little bent.

Seeing this, Guo Anwen smiled, this leader of the strong class is Guo Anzhong's typical character with developed limbs and a simple mind.

The skills are amazing, but the brain, even Zhu Laosi will shake his head when he sees it!

Guo An explained: "Whether those merchants bring food, iron shovels, or shovels, it is very likely that they are ready to sell to the people of Wanping County.

Now, because of the reclamation of wasteland, the people of Wanping County are in short supply of these items, so isn't that a good thing? ”

Yu Huowang thought about it very hard, and then said with a worried face: "But the county honor, these merchants are all cunning and cunning, and they will definitely sell them to the people of Wanping County at a high price!" ”

Guo An smiled indifferently, "So what?" Only when their families have grain, iron shovels, and shovels can they sell them at a high price.

And now, there is no His Royal Highness King Yan in Beiping Mansion.

If the price of these merchants is too high, the people of Wanping County can borrow from His Royal Highness King Yan, and I don't have to buy them! ”

Yu Huowang suddenly cracked his mouth, his face full of excitement, "The county is wise!" ”

Guo An said: "Okay, it's not for you to pat Shangguan's sycophant, you go down to arrange it, and I want to warmly welcome those merchants from top to bottom in Wanping County."

Then, call the six-room scribe again, and the official has something to order! ”

Yu Huowang smiled, saluted Guo An, and hurriedly retreated.

Soon, Ning Deyou, the scrivener of the household, Feng Fuchun, the scrivener of the house, and the scrivener of the workshop all walked in.

……

At the same time, on the Caoyun General Wharf and Haizi Wharf in Beiping Prefecture, hundreds of strong men, under the instructions of several stewards, laboriously carried bags of grain and heavy boxes from the twenty large ships next to the wharf.

On a luxury restaurant on the side, a round rich merchant stood by the window, looking at all this with a smile on his face.

Behind him, there were three wealthy businessmen who were also wearing cloth clothes, and they said to the rich businessmen in front of them with a flattering face.

"Outside the king, those people in Wanping County, after seeing that we and others brought 100,000 stone of grain, as well as 60,000 pieces of iron and shovels, they were about to jump for joy."

"Now, their homes are running out of food, shovels, and shovels! As long as we hoard these grains, and wait until ten days later, when the grain tanks in their homes are bottoming out, the prices of our grains will inevitably skyrocket! ”

Wang Yuanwai, who looked like a round ball, smiled faintly and said: "This matter is not in a hurry to discuss, let's inquire first, how many acres of land have been reclaimed by these people of Wanping County!" ”

"It's the pole, it's the pole, or the king's foresight!"

"It's only been less than two months, and even if the people in Wanping County don't sleep at night, they can reclaim a thousand hectares of fields, which is good!"

"Hahaha, after this matter is over, I will definitely thank the little magistrate of Wanping County......"

……

Two days later.

In a house in Wanping County.

In addition to the king, there were three other wealthy merchants.

However, at this moment, these people, looking at the subordinate in front of them, directly widened their eyes, their faces were full of incredulity, and even two wealthy businessmen were already nervously sweating beads on their foreheads.

"Have you found out, it's really fifteen hundred hectares?"

"Yes, how many people are there in Wanping County? How could they have cultivated 1,500 hectares of land in just two months? ”

"This matter must be that the magistrate of Wanping County in order to borrow grain from King Yan, so that the people of Wanping County exaggerated the cultivation of acres!"

"That's sure to be the case, when I left, the people in Wanping County were complaining one by one, and they were really insulting the little county lord of Wanping County all day long.

It is so difficult to reclaim wasteland, how can these people of Wanping County reclaim so many fields in such a short period of time? ”

As he spoke, Wang Yuanwai's face sank, and he looked coldly at the steward in front of him.

"It's extreme, it's extreme, it must be you bastard who stole and played tricks, and didn't investigate properly!"

"Forgive sins, villain, villain is really ......" beads of sweat on the steward's forehead suddenly appeared.

Now that the weather is so hot, in order to save effort, he really didn't go to investigate in person, but used the way he made friends before to find a few lieutenants under Wanping County.

"Hmph, the old man will give you another chance, if you give the old man another stealing trick, don't blame the old man for being ruthless!"

Wang Yuanwai said coldly.

"Yes, yes, thank you, sir!"

The steward hurriedly answered with gratitude on his face, and ran out in a panic.

Seeing this, several people in the room breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again.

They spent so much effort to transport so much grain from Jiangnan, isn't it just to make money for these people in Wanping County, and even the fields?

If these people in Wanping County really reclaimed enough land for 2,000 hectares, then they would inevitably lose all their money!
