Chapter 172: Resentment Spreads
www.biquge.info Feng Yi was already overwhelmed by the suppression of the Eagle Country's army, but at this time, Chang Zaixing directly escorted a group of officials who had violated the ban in front of Feng Yi......
"What? The granaries are all rotten and spoiled grain......? You guys are so daring......" When Feng Yi listened to Chang Zaixing's report, Long Yan was immediately furious......
And the officials who violated the ban collapsed to the ground one by one at this moment, and when the matter reached such a point, they also knew that it was useless to beg for mercy, and what they had done had seriously affected the movement of the army, and it was impossible to be forgiven......
"General Chang, have you ever found out where those military rations went? I would like to know which businessman was so bold and dared to shake the foundation of the country......" Feng Yi glanced at these officials who had violated the ban with hatred, and looked at Chang Zaixing again......
"Your Majesty, after the interrogation of the general, these military rations should have been taken away by the people of the Lin Clan's trading house...... "Before Chang Zaixing came back, he had already done everything, so he naturally knew where the grain went......
"Is the Lin Firm?" Hearing Chang Zaixing mention the Lin Firm, Feng Yi's mind couldn't help but think of the slightly chubby middle-aged businessman, Lin Xuan, who had made him flee back in embarrassment in the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, but Lin Xuan had already been eliminated by him by using a knife to kill people, and the Lin Firm's firm should have been taken over by his son Feng Jun, that is, Prince An Jun......
"Jun'er, are you doing it again?, what are you trying to do?" Feng Yi muttered to himself, what he hated most now was why he gave birth to such a son in the first place......
You must know that now the army of the Eagle Country is pressing the border, it is the trouble he has caused, and now it is even better, even the granary where the military food is stored has been emptied for him, which is basically going to destroy the Qi State......
"General Chang, immediately send someone to seal up the Lin family firm and see if you can recover those military rations......" Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Feng Yi's mind, and he suddenly thought of a question, that is, the amount of these military rations is so large that they can't be consumed at all under normal circumstances, if they can be recovered, won't all the problems be solved?
"Your Majesty, you have already sent people before the future, but the Lin family trading house in Golden Dragon City has been emptied, and there is nothing else except for some houses......
"Huh...... is worthy of being my son, things are really done carefully......" After listening to Chang Zaixing's report, Feng Yi suddenly said with a smile of anger......
"Your Majesty, there is no military rations, and the matter of mobilizing the three armies ......" Chang Zaixing looked at Feng Yi, who was extremely angry and happy, and asked cautiously......
"The army of the Eagle Country has already started, Dingyuan City cannot afford to be lost, General Chang immediately led the troops to support, as for the military rations, take the grain in the granary first...... "Feng Yi calmed down and made a decision......
"Your Majesty, the grain in the granary is related to the normal operation of the country, if it is not taken away, there will be turmoil without food...... Chang Zaixing heard Feng Yi's order, and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade him......
The empty reserve granary is the military rations prepared for wartime, which will not be used at all in peacetime, and the granary is the granary responsible for the consumption and operation of the country in peacetime......
As soon as he takes the grain away, there will be a situation where many people will not be able to buy it if they have the money, and that will cause panic in the hearts of the people......
"It's okay, I'll arrange for the cultivators to transfer the reserve military rations from other cities over for emergency first, I don't believe that the son of a scumbag can empty the granaries of all the cities...... Feng Yi said hatefully......
"General Chang, I'll leave the matter of Dingyuan City to you......" Then Feng Yi bowed his hand to Chang Zaixing......
"Your Majesty, rest assured, as long as you don't die, Dingyuan City will not lose ......" Chang Zaixing was moved by Feng Yi's gift and knelt directly on the ground and made a solemn oath......
Although there were many twists and turns, Chang Zaixing mobilized a million elite soldiers and headed towards Dingyuan City, and Feng Yi also began to prepare for the transfer of reserve military rations from other cities to Golden Dragon City for emergency purposes......
However, Feng Yi found out that almost all of the reserve military rations of the Qi State had been emptied, and the normal granaries could only maintain the usual consumption, and the cities had no extra food to support the Golden Dragon City......
"How can this be? What can I do about this?" Feng Yi, who got the news, was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that in this peaceful and prosperous world, there would be no food available in the Qi Kingdom......
Although there are a large number of cultivators in the Qi Kingdom, and there are many cultivators who are proficient in the path of plants and trees, although cultivators can help crops grow better when they use the Dao method, there is no way to directly conjure up food......
"Your Majesty, the minister has an idea to solve this dilemma......" Just when Feng Yi was at a loss, the prime minister of Qi State stood up......
"What is the prime minister's good plan...... Hearing the prime minister's words, Feng Yi's spirit couldn't help but be shocked, and he hurriedly asked......
"Your Majesty, now only those peasant households who grow grain will have a certain amount of grain in their hands, so we might as well collect the grain in the hands of those peasant households first......"
"But in this way, wouldn't those farmers have no food on hand?" Feng Yi asked directly without the prime minister finishing his words......
"Your Majesty, the minister means to leave some grain for these farmers, according to the minister's observation, the climate this year is particularly good, it must be a bumper harvest year, as long as the grain on hand of those farmers can last until the harvest season in two months......
"Okay, just according to what the prime minister said, first wronged those farmers, and when this matter passes, I will compensate them well......" After listening to the prime minister's words, Feng Yi pondered for a long time, and finally agreed to the prime minister's method......
There is no way, who let them have no food on hand now, so they can only collect the excess grain in the hands of those farmers to deal with the emergency......
With Feng Yi's decree, officials from all over the Qi country began to collect grain, and once this news came out, the happiest people were those grain merchants who had a certain amount of grain in their hands......
Seizing this opportunity, these grain merchants began to sit on the ground and raise prices, and almost overnight, the price of grain in Qi more than tripled......
Moreover, in order to obtain more profits, there was a situation of collusion between officials and businessmen in almost all cities, and when they collected grain, they did not leave enough rations for these peasant households at all, but collected all the surplus grain, and sold the surplus grain to the people of these Qi countries at extremely high prices through the hands of grain merchants......
All of a sudden, the people of Qi were dissatisfied, but Feng Yi, who was high in the sky, was so anxious by the Eagle Country that he didn't notice the turmoil in the hearts of the people in the country at all......
