After finishing his cultivation this morning, Cang Mang let out a breath and slowly opened his eyes.

In the past few days, he has injected the aura into the space in his chest again and again, but because the position of the chaotic aura liquid is not suitable, he has not been able to get another drop: "It seems that this has to rely on some luck, if my cultivation is improved a little more, and I can last longer, maybe I hope it will be a lot more." ”

After finishing his cultivation, one turned over and got off the roof and headed for the silkworm room at the back of the academy.

The students were still working, and when they saw Cang Yu coming, they all greeted him.

Cang nodded in response, and saw that the boiled cocoons had been piled up into a hill on the side, so he asked suspiciously, "Aren't there any farmers who come to buy these cocoons today?"

Many students' families have made some money through silk reeling in the past few days, and many people lowered their heads when they heard Cangman's question.

Cang was wondering what was going on, and a student explained: "Senior brother, the shops in the town have been constantly lowering the purchase price of silk in the past few days. Yesterday, I was only willing to give 155 spirit coins per catty of silk, and today, I am only willing to give 145 spirit coins per catty of silk. Farmers are now processing a pound of silk, not to mention that they can't make money, but they have to lose money, so no one does it. ”

Cang frowned: "What? One hundred and forty-five? Isn't this robbing people?"

Cang Mang understood what this price meant, which was extremely unreasonable, in the past, the silk in the town was collected at a price of 200, and the money earned by the farmers was only barely enough to make ends meet. If it is collected at the price of one hundred and forty-five, it will be a blood loss.

Cang Mang said angrily: "How dare they give such a low price?"

The student continued: "The merchant said that the amount of silk is too much these days, and the price will naturally be low. ”

Hearing this reason, Cang was unable to refute it for a while.

In the past few days, the academy has to produce five or six hundred catties of silk every day, which is indeed not a small amount, but the merchants have pushed the price so low, so how can other farmers live?

"Where's the dean?"

"The dean has just gone to the mayor's house and wants to talk to the mayor about the low purchase price of silk. ”

The mayor of Qushui Town is called Peng Yuan, and the Peng family is also the largest household in Qushui Town, 70% of the industry's industry in the town belongs to the Peng family, and the remaining 30% are some self-employed people who make small troubles and cannot affect the overall situation. So this time, the purchase price of silk was depressed, and it was right to go to the Peng family.

A few hours later, Dean Feng returned to the academy.

Seeing Dean Feng's expression, Cang Yu knew that the result of this trip was definitely not ideal.

"Dean, what did the Peng family say?"

Dean Feng sighed: "The Peng family refuses to raise the price. ”

Cang Mang looked a little excited: "Why? This price is not reasonable at all." ”

The Peng family said that the risks on the road were too great, and the activities of the black flag thieves were becoming more and more rampant, and the Peng family was also facing a lot of losses. Coupled with the large amount, the price over there in Green Water City has also been depressed. ”

The name of the Black Flag Thief, Cang Mang naturally knows, is a group of robbers who are active and in several surrounding towns, their whereabouts are uncertain and elusive. Not to mention robbing business travelers, sometimes he also does some things such as robbing homes and houses, killing people and setting fires.

Several surrounding towns have also united and launched several crackdowns against bandits, but it took a lot of manpower and material resources, and they didn't even see the shadow of the Black Flag Thieves.

After a long time, no one mentioned the matter of suppressing bandits, and each family asked for more blessings, and if anyone encountered a black flag thief, he could only be considered unlucky.

As for lowering the price of Green Water City, Cang Vast will not believe this kind of nonsense. With a population of millions under the rule of Green Water City, how can such a large market not be able to digest such a little silk?

What's more, Green Water City has convenient transportation, and those merchants often sell local specialties to other places. The Peng family clearly wants to make more money.

Cang Mang is a little scratching, what should I do? Doing business is what you like me to do, so it's not good to force it to sell, right? As for further price reductions, even Cang Mang feels that he can't accept such a low price, so what about other farmers who breed silkworms?

He looked at Dean Feng again: "The price given by the Peng family is really not good, are there any other merchants in the town who can buy silk?"

"Other merchants are willing to do so, but they are too small and weak to accept such a large amount. ”

Thinking about it, the academy is calculated according to the amount of five hundred catties every day, and one catty of two hundred also requires 100,000 spirit coins, which is indeed not something that every merchant can take.

Seeing that so many silk piles are piled up here, if we don't deal with it again, what will happen to the silk the day after tomorrow? Could it be that the academy will stop work?

Thinking of this, Cang Dad's mind turned: "Dean, do you think this is possible? As long as the other merchants are willing to buy silk at the price of two hundred spirit coins, then give them the goods first, and then give the money to the academy when they sell the goods." As for this payment, the farmers may not be able to bear it, so it is better to transfer it to the academy. ”

Dean Feng's eyes lit up: "This is a solution, I'll go and contact the merchant." ”

The progress of the matter was as expected, and several merchants were willing to buy silk, and as soon as the news came out, some even took the initiative to come to the door.

Merchants can't afford to make a profit, and they are keenly aware of the profits. With such a large amount, they only need to pull the silk to Green Water City and sell it, and a large amount of spirit coins will be credited to the account, what a good deal is this?

This matter has been resolved for the time being, and the silkworm breeding in the academy is still going on as usual.

In order to avoid being discovered, and in order for students to be in a better state to cope with the exams, the academy has greatly reduced the amount of silkworm breeding.

There are still a few days left before the previously agreed assessment date, but the three carriages have already arrived in front of the academy.

As you can see from the logos on the cars, several of the cars are from Green Water City.

The first person to get out of the car was still Dean Zhou.

Cang looked at Dean Feng on the side and said, "They are really impatient! ”

Dean Feng and Cang Mang glanced at each other: "I hope I can pass the test today." ”

In the other two cars, people also got down, and a middle-aged man in official uniform got out of one car.

On the other car, a young man came down, the man was seventeen or eighteen years old, his face was not handsome, but he was dressed very elegantly, and it also gave people a feeling of extraordinary equipment.

After the young man got out of the carriage, a bare hand reached out from behind him and grabbed the man's hand.

Seeing the owner of this hand, Cang Mang couldn't help but have his eyelids jumping slightly, this person was Zhou Ying who threatened to take revenge on him.

I looked at the young man again, could this person be the young master of the Zhuge family?
