Thinking of Ye Zhiying's ability all along, Qin Wu nodded in the end.

"There is no doubt about this, of course I believe in Brother Zhiying's ability, but I hope that Brother Zhiying can talk to me first, so that I don't make any mistakes. ”

"No problem. Ye Zhiying bowed his head and said, "Actually, things are very simple, what Brother Qin Wu wants is nothing more than to go back to the Han Kingdom to find the two elite armies of the Wing Guards and the Tiger Ben Army, right?"

Qin Wu nodded and said: "That's right, in addition, I also have some connections to look for in the rivers and lakes, these 100,000 city defense troops are not enough to support our strength at all, instead of swaggering around with them, it is better to act in a low-key manner first, and when the power in our hands can really read the file and can face off with the Yang Kingdom of the Han Kingdom, we will crush it mightily." ”

"That's right. Ye Zhiying clapped his hands and said, "Brother Qin Wu wants to act alone, but the premise is that the situation in the Han Kingdom does not continue to deteriorate, otherwise there will be no time for Brother Qin Wu to do those things, I plan to use the city defense army of Yicheng to delay the pace of Yangguo's attack first, and when it is stabilized, Brother Qin Wu can go wherever he wants, after all, so many internal force levels are not to be seen, but if there is no army, relying on these internal force levels alone, it is basically impossible to hold anything, so I must also mobilize the city defense army of Yicheng." ”

"I see. Qin Wu said suddenly, "Then it's all up to Brother Zhiying's arrangement." ”

"Leave it to me. Ye Zhiying replied confidently.

The matter had been explained, and the four internal force level masters also left to do their own things, while Qin Wu waited for his subordinates to bring him clean clothes to change into before he got up and left, leaving Ye Zhiying alone to continue to be busy in the City Lord's Mansion.

Before leaving, Ye Zhiying also told Qin Wu that he could move out of the Qunying Building, and the City Lord's Mansion also had rooms to arrange rest, so it was easy to contact if there was anything close to him. Qin Wu naturally agreed to this arrangement, and he also asked Ye Zhiying to arrange some people to move the remaining clothes in Qunying Building together, so he didn't have to go on a special trip to get the clothes.

In the next few days, Qin Wu has been staying in Yicheng, occasionally visiting Yi Jiuzhong's side, to see if he is awake, compared to Qin Wu's idleness, Ye Zhiying is very busy, the variety of goods snatched from the hands of the merchants is too miscellaneous, and it takes a lot of effort to sell them all, because he doesn't care about profits, for a while, there was a rush to buy in the post city, and everything was much lower than the original price.

It is worth mentioning that most of the people who participated in the rush purchase were those merchants who had been robbed, and they naturally could see which of their own things were their own things, and they also knew what the relationship between the people who sold these things and those bandits, but what could they do?

In just five days, Ye Zhiying has already recorded more than one million taels of silver, and according to the remaining goods, it should be able to account for a total of about 16.7 million taels of silver.

Although all of them have not been sold, Ye Zhiying did not idle the money in his account, but used it to start purchasing grain, grass and medicines, as well as some miscellaneous supplies, the drugs are easy to do, the low-grade drugs such as gold sore medicine that Ye Zhiying needs are not very precious, with the current relationship with Gao Gui, it is easy to buy a large number of them at a low price, and the problem now is mainly in grain and grass.

Yes, grain and grass, although the post city is prosperous, but its own grain is basically all trade, a wasteland outside the city, completely uncultivated, as for the city, it is even more impossible, even if the post city has arable land, just rely on a place the size of a city, how much grain can be produced? Most of the caravans that usually transport grain only bring the amount for the post city itself, and if they want to hoard more, they must let these caravans transport more grain than usual.

And if you want these grain merchants to transport grain, it will take a lot of time to wait, and these merchants are also very shrewd, seeing that food is so sought-after, they are ready to sit on the ground and raise the price, ready to make a lot of money from Ye Zhiying.

It's a pity that these grain merchants are not the only ones who are shrewd, Ye Zhiying's shrewdness is much higher than them.

On the day when the grain merchants raised the price, Ye Zhiying issued an announcement through Zhu Jun's status as the city lord, which stated: Due to the recent price fluctuations, the price of grain has risen, in order to ensure the fairness of the entry tax, from today onwards, all taxes on grain and grass goods entering the post city will be raised according to the market price until the price returns to normal.

This move directly raised the price of the grain merchants, and pulled it back from themselves, and after the announcement was made, Ye Zhiying smiled in his heart: Do you want to sit on the ground and raise the price? Okay, then I will use your money to buy your grain.

Although the tax on goods has always been taxed according to the total proportion of goods, it has never changed according to the market price, after all, soldiers are not merchants, where do they have so much leisure to remember what has risen today, what has reduced the price, unless it is a long-term change, otherwise the countless types of goods in the post city are destined to be impossible to change temporarily every day.

What's more, what these grain merchants are targeting is only Ye Zhiying's purchase, which is a privately negotiated price, and the price of grain in the market has basically not moved, after all, if they raise prices at will, when the time comes, the market may abandon them, so this "price fluctuation" is simply empty words, and you can understand that this is Ye Zhiying deliberately targeting them with a little brain.

Fortunately, they also saw the way back for Ye Zhiying, that is, the sentence "until prices return to normal", so those businessmen put down their cleverness and honestly sold to Ye Zhiying at the market price, otherwise not only Ye Zhiying would use their money to buy food, but even those they sold to the market would be affected, and they would not be willing to bear such losses.

When the grain merchants came to relent, expressing their willingness to sell grain at market prices, Ye Zhiying also retracted the announcement very faithfully, and replaced it with an announcement that "prices have returned to normal, and no additional taxes will be levied on grain goods".

The price increase only lasted for a day before returning to normal, which made the soldiers who were responsible for collecting taxes a little confused, and they didn't know what they were doing, but they were all right, but it was just a little strange, and now that everything is back to normal, they still save trouble.

What is really miserable for this is the speculators in the post city, as soon as the announcement that the price of grain goods will rise in the post city, it is in an uproar in the post city, and many speculators have also hoarded grain, ready to make a big profit after the price rises, but this is just a day, the limelight of the grain has not passed, the announcement was taken down again, so that those speculators want to cry without tears, although the money is not much loss, but now they can not make a profit from the hoarding of grain, it is completely equivalent to helping those grain merchants work and marketing for free, but what can they doIf you don't sell it, do you stay in the warehouse and wait for mold?
