The helmsman of the Shenlong Gang.

Through the window, Li Chaofeng looked at the vast white Anqing City, and his face was not sad or happy.

Turning to look behind him, Li Chaofeng also asked indifferently.

"How's the workshop going?"

Long San bowed slightly, and hurriedly spoke

"Heavy snow has blocked all the roads in the city, and I'm afraid it will not be easy to start work."

Li Chaofeng continued to ask: "How is the snow clearing arrangement?" ”

Long San was silent, making Li Chaofeng blush.

"Questions?"

Long San saw Li Chaofeng's expression, and hurriedly explained.

"I don't know how long it will snow, it costs too much to clear snow every day, and workers don't want to go out in the snow."

Li Chaofeng glared at the Dragon King angrily and said contemptuously.

"There are many reasons, but things have to be done."

The dragon king bowed his head: "The subordinates will arrange someone to do it immediately." ”

Li Chaofeng closed his eyes, snow clearing has never been for the workers to go to work normally, but to give the bitter haha a way to live in the snow.

It's just cash-for-work.

But you can't tell this kind of thing to the people below.

The Dragons are gangs and businessmen, but they have never been saviors.

Don't go to work for relief, under the heavy snow, Anqing has such a high population density, tragedies will happen every day.

Even Anqing is like this, and other cities are afraid that it will be more difficult to maintain, tapping lightly on the table, Li Chaofeng asked again.

"How are food prices rising in each city?"

Ryuzo swallowed his saliva and replied.

"Anqing has risen by one percent."

Gasping, Li Chaofeng continued to ask.

"What about other places?"

Long San bowed his head: "Sancheng. Even fifty percent of them do. ”

Li Chaofeng's eyes widened: "Who else dares to hoard food stamps?" ”

Long San shook his head, and then nodded: "The big families have long dared not offend the Shenlong Gang, but the people have begun to stock up on grain when they see such a heavy snow and it has been raining for so many days. ”

As these words came out, Long San also said with some fear.

"There are too many food stamps collected by grain stores in various places in recent days."

Li Chaofeng closed his eyes in pain, the big households are easy to control, but those hungry and scared people, in this kind of weather, I am afraid that they can stock up on food for several months.

Grain on both sides of the Yangtze River can only be purchased with grain stamps, but there is also a risk of a run on grain stamps.

If too many people had hoarded food for three months, intentionally or unintentionally, in the snow, they would not have died.

But those people who don't hoard food, some will starve to death.

Looking at Long San, Li Chaofeng asked.

"How much grain has arrived in the Sun Mansion?"

Regarding this question, Long San also hurriedly replied.

"Someone has been sent to pick it up, but the road between the state capitals is not smooth, the snow in the south has just melted, and the road is even more muddy, I'm afraid it will take a long time to arrive."

Li Chaofeng clenched his fists, his eyes became fierce, and he said in a firm tone.

"Send people to keep an eye on the grain, use other bills to hire people to go up the mountain to chop firewood, and build soup kitchens in all the cities covered by heavy snow, if anyone dares to speak out against it, don't ask me, kill!"

Long San felt the coldness in Li Chaofeng's tone, and hurriedly bowed his head and gave his hand.

"Whoa!"

After thinking about it again for a long time, Li Chaofeng also clenched his fists and said.

"Send a message to Balong, let his sea fleet divert to Songjiang Province, and transport grain by sea as soon as possible."

"Inform Tielong again, from today onwards, in addition to transporting grain from all over the country, all the boats on the river will open nets for me to catch fish and send them to various food shops to sell."

"The food is not enough, the meat is coming, no matter how hard and tired the Shenlong Gang is, they have to survive this time for me, understand?"

Long San looked at the redness in Li Chaofeng's pupils, and quickly lowered his head.

"My subordinates understand!"

Li Chaofeng turned his back and said coldly.

"Let's get to work!"

"The subordinates retired."

As Long San left the room, Li Chaofeng's face instantly became lonely.

A few years of operation got a river of bustling cities. Although Li Chaofeng is very tired, he always has a sense of pride in his heart.

But it was only when he encountered a shocking snowfall that it began to reveal its true form.

The higher the population density, the greater the dependence on food.

Fortunately, the old man was easy to speak, and Li Chaofeng asked for food, and he gave it directly.

Is it just in time?

Think of the road conditions of this era. Li Chaofeng raised his hand and rattled the bell.

One can die, but one can never sit still.

A black-clothed secret guard appeared in front of Li Chaofeng, and also brought the news that Li Chaofeng needed.

Looking at the black-clothed secret guard, Li Chaofeng hesitated for a long time, and asked coldly.

"How's the situation in the north?"

Li Chaofeng returned to the Shenlong Gang as quickly as possible to arrange work after the snow.

At the same time, we contacted eyeliners from all over the country for the first time to explore the scope of heavy snowfall.

The result made Li Chaofeng desperate, this was a heavy snow covering half of the Central Plains.

The Sun Mansion is in the south, even if it snows, it can melt in two or three days, and the impact is not great.

But there was heavy snow in the south, which meant that the north was even worse.

Anqing is located in the middle of the north and south, just a fringe city with heavy snowfall, and if you talk about climate hazards, it is not too big.

However, Li Chaofeng is an industrial city, the population density is too high, and the panic of the people is troubled.

All kinds of situations were intertwined, which caught Li Chaofeng a little off guard.

He is not an old man, and he can't accept that countless people are starving to death in front of his eyes.

But even if he had enough food, he couldn't stop millions of people from hoarding food.

As soon as the dark guard arrived, he also spoke.

"Qiqi Dragon King, the price of grain in the north has risen, five or six times is already a great good person, ten times there are all, and there is no market, many people have starved to death and froze to death."

When Li Chaofeng heard this, his eyes became extremely cold, and he asked.

"How many grain merchants have found in large quantities of grain?"

The grain in the south has been given, but the roads are muddy and cannot be reached in time.

However, the heavy snow in the north has not melted, and although there is a danger of freezing, the official road can still be walked.

There is also grain in the north, but it is too expensive, not only is it difficult to buy, but many times it is impossible to buy.

But he can't buy it, he can grab it!

The Shenlong Gang is a gang!

Anyway, in the spring, most of the grain of those landlords will rot in the warehouse.

For the sake of food, Li Chaofeng doesn't need to be cheeky at all.

He has killed a lot of people in the past few years, and the profiteers who hoarded grain were already on his kill list.

It's just that he never goes out of the Yangtze River to enforce the law.

"Almost all of them were found, and those merchants didn't hide what they did at all."

The black-clothed dark guard bowed his head, his tone a little excited.

"Now in the whole Northland, a girl can only change one liter of rice, and three liters of rice can be exchanged for a young girl, and those guys are really not afraid that we will come to the door."

Li Chaofeng looked at the black-clothed dark guard and didn't blame him for his excitement.

There are many black-clothed secret guards who are slaves, and Li Chaofeng is one of them.

And the secret guard beside Li Chaofeng has been in contact with Li Chaofeng all year round, and he has heard many truths from Li Chaofeng.

In the past, he thought that it was the disaster that destroyed the grain and caused the price of food to rise.

And now, he finally understands that most of the time the rise in food prices is not due to a lack of food, but because large households are actively hoarding grain.

It's not that the big families are vicious in their hearts, and they especially like to see the poor starve to death.

When enough people starved to death at once, the rich and noble would buy slaves to serve them at extremely low prices.

And the rich and noble families, who have too many slaves, also need enough food to ensure their daily life.

Of course, when they hoard grain, they must also hoard enough grain for several months, or even more than a few years.

Only a catastrophe that lasts for a few months is the catastrophe of a large family.

Li Chaofeng looked at the hatred in the eyes of the black-clothed dark guard, but said coldly.

"Slavery outside the Yangtze River has nothing to do with the Shenlong Gang, I want unscrupulous grain merchants who have a lot of grain, understand?"

When the black-clothed secret guard heard this, he also quickly put away his mind and spoke.

"Yes!"

Li Chaofeng: "Where is the closest place to the Yangtze River?" ”

The black-clothed secret guard announced: "Feipeng Castle, Tiepeng Hall Master, Fang Gang." ”

Li Chaofeng squinted: "Feipeng Castle, it's him!" ”
