Chapter 257: Cast a long line to catch a big fish

"Why did you leave Yanzhou again? Are you worried about the revenge of those families? Young marshal, we raised so much food, but in the end we made a wedding dress for Liang Xiao, and offended those families, is this reasonable? The subordinates were puzzled.

As a rice merchant, with Yanzhou Taishou Liang Xiao, if this matter is known by those big families, it is inevitable that he will be targeted by the other party or even send someone to assassinate him.

Having worked with the Maison, they are well aware of the Maison's filthiness.

Long Wushuang explained: "Casting a long line to catch big fish, knowing Liang Xiao is a good start. That Liang Xiao and several civil officials around him had been observing me and seemed to have noticed me. Before they were on a firm footing and had no time to scrutinize, I had to leave. After all, my current identity is rice merchant Qin Shuang, and when the grain is sold out, can I not leave? ”

Everyone suddenly had no choice but to agree.

Unexpectedly, Long Wushuang said again: "Go back to the cottage, let's pack up again and go to Jixian, the capital of Youzhou!" ”

"Why are you going there again?" The crowd was puzzled.

"Fanning the flames!" Long Wushuang said in a deep voice.

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they immediately packed their luggage, just waited for the food to be sold, and left immediately.

Long Wushuang stood on the balcony, looking at the direction of the Taishou Mansion in the distance, his eyes were burning, and he subconsciously clenched his fists.

"This person is really both civil and military, and he is also a strong rival."

After he met Liang Xiao, he confirmed even more that Liang Xiao was definitely strong in martial arts.

The person who single-handedly ran in front of his northern Hebei guerrilla formation that day, except for Liang Xiao, didn't think about him.

After all, Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry was still in the Jiangbei area at that time.

Being able to draw a sword and decapitate a ram thunder has proven Liang Xiao's strength.

"This person will definitely be able to appease the people of Yanzhou, and my Yanzhao revival is destined to be difficult......"

Other rice merchants provided a total of 400,000 stone of grain, and the Taishou Mansion sent people to count all of them, and the quality was reliable, and they were officially purchased.

Gongsun Yue's one million stones are still being transported to Yanzhou one after another, and this matter is instructed by Duan Yunyi, so it is not passed on.

The rice merchants in Yanzhou only knew that Taishoufu had purchased 400,000 stone of grain.

Liang Xiao came to Yanzhou to take office, and in addition to his own money, he also brought two million taels of silver bills and treasury silver supported by Duan Yunyi.

Of course, the inconvenience of treasury silver transportation is still in the minority.

The funds provided by Duan Yunyi were symbolically managed by Xuanwei, which was enough for him to set up an arsenal in Yanzhou and purchase various resources.

In the Taishou Mansion, after Liang Xiao confirmed the success of the purchase of 400,000 stone of grain, he immediately instructed: "Let's raise the price of grain first." ”

The Taishou Mansion issued a notice on the same day.

[Too observant: The price per stone of rice in Yanzhou has risen to 80 Wen! 】

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

The rice merchants who traded with Liang Xiao before, looking at the increase in the price of rice, did not feel good in their hearts, but considering that Liang Xiao allowed them to gain a long-term foothold in Yanzhou, it was regarded as a concession.

Liang Xiao bought their rice for sixty wen and one stone, and they were still profitable.

But for businessmen, less is a loss.

In the ancestral house of the Higashino clan, Higashino Hongji, who learned the news, fell silent.

Higashino Xuanji was also quite displeased, and glanced at Higashino Hongji.

"Little brother, has he really increased the price? We sell food to him, we are supporting him to improve people's livelihood, not letting him eat the people, right? ”

"It was Taishoufu who bought grain and raised prices, and it wasn't him, he must have a deep meaning, this is what his father said by his old man." Higashino Hongji said helplessly.

Higashino was silent.

He is the head of the house.

But the absolute authority of the Higashino clan is his father, Higashino Canghai.

Now, he could only pray that Liang Xiao would not make a mess of Yanzhou, otherwise the foundation of the Dongye clan might also be damaged as a result.

After all, once the people rise up, they will be the first to hit the rich families.

Unless they are themselves the leaders of the unraveling......

Yanzhou Academy was boiling.

"That Liang Xiao, he bought 60 wen and 1 stone of grain from the rice merchant, but resold it to the people for 80 wen, it's crazy!"

There was a lot of talk everywhere.

Even the poor students who had spoken out in support of Liang Xiao before couldn't help but fall silent.

Many of them looked disappointed.

"Yanzhou seems to be really short of food recently, eighty wen and one stone, it's not expensive, right?" There were also scholars from poor families who tried to defend Liang Xiao, which attracted a burst of ridicule.

"This is the Yanzhou Taishou you support, what is it to ask for life for the people and make immortal achievements, after all, it is just a fish and meat people, filling their own pockets!"

These students, who previously supported Liang Xiao, couldn't help but be ashamed.

Duguchen watched coldly, smiling, and sighed in his heart.

"It is worthy of Tuoba Jun, before leaving, he can still bury such a hidden danger for Yanzhou, forcing Liang Xiao to reveal his true form......"

Dongye Luoyue, who had been grounded before, was even more indignant: "My father shouldn't support this kind of person to enter Yanzhou!" ”

Now that the moon is falling in the east field, don't mention the fire.

She was grounded by her father because of her prejudice against Liang Xiao.

Later, Dongye Xuanji couldn't bear it anymore, and asked her to promise that she would not speak ill of Liang Xiao outside, so she was allowed to go out.

"Brother Dugu, what do you say?" Dongye Luoyue walked in front of Duguchen with a well-behaved face.

Or did he make himself comfortable!

The crowd was furious, Duguchen knew that it was his turn to make a move, and got up with a calm face.

"You might as well listen to me......"

Liang Xiao sat in the Taishou Mansion and learned about public opinion, but he didn't react too much, let alone restore food prices.

"Maintaining the same at 80 wen and one stone, this is the only way."

Gongsun Yue, who was cleaning up the room herself, couldn't help but wonder when she learned that the price of food had risen.

"Why are prices rising?"

"Oh, it doesn't matter, he has his thoughts, I'll just stare at my little sister!"

Camp in the mountains.

Xiahou Qingyi returned to the stable and whistled.

A white shadow swept in, as fast as thunder and lightning!

The White Dragon Shadow came with her pony.

Xiahou Liukite then rushed over, looked at the intimate one person and two horses, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"The White Dragon Shadow seems to have decided that the leader is the master, which is really good!"

Xiahou Qingyi's eyes were thoughtful, and he slowly sat on the back of the horse.

The white dragon shadow just carried her and walked around the stable, for fear that the bumps would hurt her.

She looked at the white dragon shadow with some worry in her eyes.

The White Dragon Shadow only thinks of himself as the Lord?

But soon, she was relieved.

They belong to the grassland, and they don't belong to anyone.

Nor do they belong to themselves, and it seems that they should not decide their future?

At this moment, another male knight from outside rushed to report.

"Chief, we recently discovered that there is a group of Northern Hu spies who are making trouble in Yanzhou and collecting supplies!"

Her starry eyes lit up and she immediately dismounted.

Xiahou Liuyuan smiled and groaned: "Oops~ I have to go to Yanzhou again so soon?" This time, let's go to business~"

With a slight smile in her eyes, she glanced at Xiahou Liuyu, and after calming the white dragon shadow, she left the stable.

The white dragon shadow watched her leave, lowered the horse's head, the horse's eyes drooped slightly, as if a little lost, and turned into the mountain.

In the depths of the mountain forest, the white dragon shadow looked around at the dark woods around him, becoming more and more bored, looking up to the sky and hissing, the sound was like thunder.

A moment later, the white dragon shadow left the pony behind, jumped up, and actually stepped over the one-foot high guardrail, and rushed towards the northern grassland.
