God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1136 Pork and People
Hearing everyone's compliments, Chang Sun Chong felt like a spring breeze, very comfortable.

He stood up and said, "Everyone, it's not too late, let's act now."

"Listen to the eldest grandson's orders!"

……

Chang'an Street.

Under the advertisement of Hu County Grain Distribution Center.

There was a group of people gathered, and suddenly a few guys dressed like ordinary people appeared, looked around suspiciously, and then said to the people around: "Everyone, do you know that there is no grain in the Hu County Grain Distribution Center? They have long since run out of food to sell!"

"Don't be fooled, everyone. You work hard every day to get the number plate, but you don't know that you have been deceived by the Dream Group. You should quickly reject the number plate!"

"There is no food in the south of the Yangtze River, it's all a lie!"

A few people said a word to each other, and said loudly.

Sure enough, all the people around gathered around.

Several people are naturally very proud.

These people were all sent by big grain merchants.

The purpose of spreading rumors is very simple, it is to create confusion and make the people completely lose their trust in the Hu County Grain Distribution Center.

"What kind of stupid advertisement is this? It's a lie. In fact, the Hu County Grain Distribution Center doesn't even sell a single grain of grain every day, so how can there be [-] yuan..."

A guy is speaking impassionedly, dancing and dancing.

However, the words did not finish.

boom.

He was kicked to the ground.

"Who, who kicked me?"

This guy was furious, and he was about to get angry when he got up.

However, before he could react, the people around him tied him up with ropes.

"What are you going to do?"

Several people were dumbfounded.

An old man pointed to the advertisement posted on the wall.

Several people turned their heads to look, and almost vomited blood immediately.

I saw a large line at the bottom of the advertisement: Recently, there are people with ulterior motives who tried to slander the Hu County Grain Distribution Center. If anyone catches these people, they will be rewarded with [-] pennies for each one caught.

The leader said with hatred: "Wait, you actually want to arrest me and go to the grain distribution center of Hu County for the sake of mere fifty guan?"

The old man said: "Fifty guan is a lot, enough to buy two catties of white pork."

The white pork used to be [-] guan a catty.

Now, even fifty guan can buy two catties.

Several guys who were caught: "..."

"Let's go!"

"Go to Hu County to collect the reward money!"

……

Similar things keep happening all over Chang'an.

Anyone who dared to stand up and speak ill of the Hu County Grain Distribution Center would be caught by the people who suddenly appeared and sent to the Hu County Grain Distribution Center.

……

boom.

yard.

Chang Sun Chong was so angry that he smashed the teacup and teapot in front of him.

"It's unreasonable, it's really unreasonable, Hu County Grain Distribution Center is nothing more than a grain store, how dare he arrest people? Is there any law of the king? Is there any law of heaven? Are you pig-headed? Why don't you go to Jingzhao Mansion to sue That fellow Wang Lao Wu?" Chang Sun Chong said with a growl.

A grain merchant lowered his head and said, "Young Master Changsun, we have already gone to Jingzhao Mansion just now, and Liu Wentong, the governor of Jingzhao Mansion, said that it was not Wang Laowu from the Hu County Grain Distribution Center who arrested people. It’s impossible for the government to arrest people, it’s the common people who are arresting people, if we can tell which common people it is, he will let the government officials arrest and interrogate them!”

The eldest grandson said angrily: "That guy Liu Wentong is simply hateful."

The grain merchant asked: "Master Changsun, do you want Sikong Mansion to come forward and put some pressure on Liu Wentong? Now all the people we sent out have been arrested. If this continues, there is no way! Our people just went to pay back At the grain distribution center in Huxian County, Wang Laowu actually said that it is impossible to release people unless they are redeemed with money, which costs two hundred per person... Wang Laowu didn't have to do anything, and in a blink of an eye I earned 150 guan..."

Everyone is depressed.

Before that, no one thought that Wang Laowu would come up with such a cheap method.

Wang Laowu is indeed a representative of Jiangnan merchants, and his ability to make money is really hard to guard against.

Chang Sunchong snorted coldly and said, "Do you think that Wang Lao Wu could really come up with such a vicious method? It must be Du He who instructed him to do it behind the scenes... We can only accept this plan and kill everyone. Redeem it. Our main event is not in this matter, what we have to do is to prevent a grain of grain from flowing out, and the Hu County Grain Distribution Center won't last long!"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

……

Hu County Grain Distribution Center.

Wang Laowu and others sat and counted money.

Mr. Liu said: "Duke Hu Guo is simply a genius. He managed to dismantle the poisonous schemes of the big grain merchants in Chang'an without any effort, and even made us earn thousands of coins!"

"Hahaha……"

Everyone laughed.

At the beginning, when Wang Laowu told everyone about Du He's arrangement, some people were skeptical.

But immediately, the people in Chang'an City were very enthusiastic and turned over the rumormongers one by one, and everyone was dumbfounded.

Many people were dumbfounded when the big grain merchants really obediently paid for the ransom as Du He expected.

And this kind of operation?

Wang Laowu said: "Yesterday, I went to see my godfather at the son-in-law's mansion. My godfather said that spreading rumors and causing trouble is just a small means. The main event of the big grain merchants should be selling grain. In the next few days, our days I'm afraid it won't be easy."

"That's right! Once there is no food in the market, the people will panic. At that time, the price of food will become higher and higher. We, the Hu County Grain Distribution Center, will be regarded as the culprit by everyone." Mr. Liu analyzed.

"What should I do? Brother Wang, what good strategy does Duke Hu have?" someone asked.

Wang Laowu said: "The godfather's strategy has only one word, and that is to wait. Godfather said, let nature take its course, and you will get help when you get it."

"Who else can help us now?" Mr. Liu asked.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Wang Lao Wu.

Wang Laowu shook his head: "I...I don't know either, but you have to trust your godfather."

"Godfather... No, Duke Hu really doesn't plan to make a move?"

The joy just now was instantly diluted.

……

Less than three days.

The grain in the market in Chang'an has decreased sharply.

Big grain merchants are hoarding and do not sell grain.

Small grain merchants got the news and waited and watched.

Food prices are rising steadily.

In just two days, the price of grain has recovered to [-]% of the previous market price, but the grain in the market is still getting less and less.

The people began to panic.

Many people are also planning to start hoarding food.

For a time, people panic.

The Hu County Grain Distribution Center has sold millions of catties of grain in nearly a month, which is supposed to be enough to consume Chang'an area for several months, but in fact, the entire Chang'an is short of grain.

This is an unpredictable thing, but it really happened.

There are concerns.

Some people are rejoicing.
