It was night at the Fangxian port wharf, and the waves were beating against the rocks on the shore. Qin Sheng and Qin Zhao led a team of men and horses in full formation to wait.

After the transaction between Lu Songli and Ji Wuyin was completed, Ji Wuyin gave them the exact location and time to pick up the goods. Liu Xiaohuai, his confidant butler, led Lu Songli's people to pick up and unload the goods.

"Coming, coming!"

Liu Xiaohuai, Qin Sheng, Wu Ren and others boarded the ship first to meet Lin Shan, the leader of the fleet.

After the boat stopped, Lin Shan stretched his body and said to his deputy, "We finally transported Ji Daxiu's batch of grain to Liaodong County without any danger."

The deputy smiled and said, "We are also lucky."

Lin Shan nodded and shouted loudly, "Boys, cheer up. When the goods are unloaded, I will have people prepare food and wine for you to have a good drink!"

Liu Xiaohuai arrived just in time and immediately took over the words, "Deputy Gang Leader Lin, we've invited you to have a drink here as a reward to all our brothers."

Lin Shan laughed, "Then we won't be polite to you, Butler Liu."

Time was urgent, so Liu Xiaohuai communicated directly with Lin Shan about stopping the ship and docking to unload the cargo.

Lin Shan saw that Liu Xiaohuai was accompanied by a dashing and handsome young man, but he had no intention of introducing him and he didn't say much.

After Liu Xiaohuai and Lin Shan communicated, Qin Zhao, Qin Sheng and others could unload the grain.

Ships loaded with grain lined up on the river, waiting to dock to unload and then carry out replenishment work.

Under the leadership of Qin Sheng and others, the soldiers began to board the ship, transport and deliver food.

Bags of grain were unloaded from the hold and piled on the dock, but soon, the grain piled on the dock was immediately transported away.

This group of people didn't need the help of the crew at all, and the crew just watched from the side.

Anyone with eyesight can tell something, "Are these soldiers?"

The well-trained mobility and the evil spirit on their bodies are not something that ordinary laborers on the dock can have.

"No wonder it's so fast."

Lin Shan curiously asked Liu Xiaohuai, "Who is the owner of Ji Daxiu's transaction this time? He actually used the army to transport grain."

It is their local custom in the south to add a ten thousand character after the surname of a wealthy businessman to show respect and to indicate that he is a wealthy person. In addition, there are also titles such as Qi Ji, Lang Guan, and Xiu to distinguish the ranks of wealthy businessmen.

, among which Xiu is the highest level, and the family property that can reach Xiu level must be above ten thousand yuan. Ji Wuyin is the eldest in the family, so he is also known as Ji Daxiu in the south.

Liu Xiaohuai only said, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't."

Lin Shan understood.

Liu Xiaohuai asked him again, "How are you doing on your way north? Did you encounter any danger?"

Lin Shan: "There is no danger."

Liu Xiaohuai looked over at him, and the deputy next to him answered, "It was indeed a near miss. We encountered water bandits twice on the way. Fortunately, we brought enough manpower with us this time to go north. The two sides were in close combat for a while. The other side probably found an idea.

I couldn't eat it anymore, so I lingered for half an hour before leaving unwillingly. "

It's just that the target of 20,000 shi of food is too big. I hope Ji Daxiu won't make such a big deal when he returns.

The reason why the other party gave up so easily was because they discovered that these goods were all food. For the water bandits, now that they are not short of food, they naturally do not think this food is precious. This food is too bulky, and unlike precious objects such as jewelry, gold and silver, can

Grab it and run.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.

Qin Sheng heard his eyes bright, and there were water bandits on the water?

The Qin family has always lived in the inland and occasionally heard of the water bandits. At that time, their Qin family was responsible for guarding the north. Without this problem, they would listen to it.

After coming to Liaodong County, Qin Sheng heard the word of the water bandits again.

He was worried that after cleaning up the rest of the cottage in Liaodong County, where should you go to make money for his daughter -in -law?

But, they have no boat ...

Qin Sheng looked at the big ship on the river with a desire look, and wanted ...

As soon as the food was transported back, Wu Ren came to report, "Mrs. Qin Liu, the food is returning, 20,000 stones!"

Lu Songli ordered, "Storage of 10,000 of them to prepare from time to time, another 10,000 stones, three thousand stones in Houcheng, and seven thousand stones, divided into Wangping, no farewell county, Liaoyang County, Gao Xian, Gaoxian

county."

Wu Ren quickly calculated that the grain of 10,000 stones, Hou Cheng accounted for three thousand stones, and the remaining four counties could be divided into less than two thousand stones.

As the new city of Liaodong County, Houcheng is too poor. They need to give more discounts and support to help it stand in Liaodong County.

In addition, the four counties, surrounded by Houcheng, are closest to Houcheng, the bandits in the county have been removed (Gaoxian County is eliminating the bandits). The people bought food and did not worry about being robbed.

For the people in Houcheng and nearby counties and towns, this day is a usual but unusual day.

In Gaoxian County, Qingshui Village

Many of the villagers work in the ground, giving crops, weeding and catching insects.

At this time, an old man walked from the village entrance with his old man.

Someone recognized the identity of the old man and greeted him, "Uncle Tiger, have you returned to the county, did the food in the county be reduced?"

The rest of the people captured the sensitive word of food prices, and they stopped looking at them in their hands.

Uncle Hu shook his head and sighed, "What is the price reduction? A bucket of food has been sold for three hundred texts, and you can't afford to eat it. This is still ordinary food.

His words made the Wenzhe feel heavy.

"I think the price of food is going to rise. The food at home is a little bit to eat. If you have money, you can buy it again." Uncle Hu finished, carrying his hands, ready to go at home.

"Uncle Tiger, where do you still have more money at home?"

"This food can no longer be saved. Every meal is thin, and the rice grains can be counted."

"Well, when is this day a head wow."

"I heard that Hou Cheng, Wangping, and the unparalleled county is collecting the people in service. During the service period, the government offers free good soup."

"Is this true?"

"It's true, two meals a day, one bowl of each person, sometimes stewed Kunbu, and sometimes it is a seaweed egg flower soup. I heard that the taste is good."

"I heard it too. I don't know when it is our turn?"

The villagers show their longing one by one.

In previous years, the people could not avoid it. Now, for the free soup for two bowls a day, in order to save food at home, I can't wait to serve early.

At this moment, a young man ran from the outside and greeted everyone, "Quick, everyone goes to the town! The town Liaodong Chamber of Commerce Grain and Oil stores has cheap food for sale!

"Cheap food? How cheap is it?"

"One bucket and one hundred articles."

Someone murmured, "This price is the same as before."

Uncle Tiger trained the other party with his face, "Don't have cheap and sell well. When is it before, when is it now? People are willing to sell one hundred text and one fight, which is cheaper than the current grain shop.

What? Give you it for nothing? "

"So cheap, won't be moldy food?"

The young man said, "No, I have seen it, the food is good food. Remember to bring the household registration for food!

"Household registration? Is it the one that the government is done when the population statistics a while ago?"

"Yes, that's that."

"Okay, I'll get it."

"It's broken, my family is troublesome, but I can't do it.

At that time, the government's statistical population and the household registration, so that the Yang family thought that he was clever and hid out and did not handle it.

"Go to the prefecture to make up for the office. Otherwise, you can't buy food!"

"Uncle Tiger, I will notify the village next door, and I will not say more with you. Everyone informs each other in the village, restricted the purchase, took the household registration book, and each person was limited to three pounds of food."

"Okay, I won't say it anymore, go back and get the household registration and buy food!"

"Don't grind everyone, hurry up. Each person is limited to three pounds of food, and the designated will be sold soon. When will the food come again later?"
Chapter completed!
