Chapter 224 Purchase Disturbance (Revised)

Yu Guo's envoys were right, the other four countries were indifferent, why did Hou Yueguo take such a big advantage?

Compared with allies, of course, the interests of the country are more important.

Hou Yueguo withdrew, and the other four countries seemed a little hesitant.

That's enough time for hesitation.

Only after this fight did we realize that the officials in Rizhao Kingdom were corrupt, poor and weak, and although there were many soldiers, they were few capable generals. By the time the monarchs of the four kingdoms had figured out how to send troops, Yu Kingdom had quickly occupied the capital of Rizhao Kingdom.The emperor and prince had been beheaded, and only some collateral bloodlines were left alive.

Fu Xuan ordered the purge of the government, and Jiang Guopan beheaded all the ministers who resisted in the corner, and conquered the Rizhao Kingdom with iron and blood.The entire court of Rizhao Kingdom was bloody, from a country to a province.

##
It only took more than a month for the incident to end, and the strength of the Yu country emerged in the battle. Of course, it also made the five neighboring countries more united and vigilant.

Yu country is the most terrifying threat. In order to prevent such things as Rizhao country from happening again, the monarchs sent envoys to hold a secret meeting, agreeing that no matter who is attacked among the five countries, the other four countries must rush to the country as soon as possible. to support.

Fu Xuan smiled softly after hearing the news, and couldn't deny their actions.

Now the Yu country is not in a hurry to attack the other five countries, and what is more important is to deal with the current food crisis.

Yes.

The army is out of food.

For this expedition, the grain and grass used were much higher than what the officials originally expected. Now, with the grain and grass stored by the Rizhao Kingdom, it is only enough for the three armies for one month.

Not to mention that there are tens of thousands more troops that have just been recruited from Yu Kingdom.

Rice is now being planted in Yu Country, but there is still at least a period of time before the harvest.

The ministers of the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Military Affairs were so worried that they couldn't sleep every day. They wrote many times to ask the emperor to take back his order and collect the grain and grass distributed to the people.

Under the pressure, Fu Xuan set his sights on the bank that was managed by officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Now there is one more way out of this dilemma - buy!

Buy it from rich merchants and landlords in the Yu Kingdom.

Buy from famous grain-producing countries.

As Yu Guo's "good partner", Hou Yueguo was targeted like this.

The terrain of Hou Yueguo belongs to a basin. Since ancient times, there has been no shortage of water sources, and the land is fertile. Although the land is small, it is a large producer.Several nearby countries, including Hou Yueguo, were able to produce so much grain in a short period of time.

Hearing the news that Emperor Yu wanted to buy 100 million taels of silver grain from them, Hou Yue's melon seeds fell to the ground in shock.

While being happy, he was a little puzzled, why did Yu Guo buy so much grain?Usually one tael of silver and two hundred catties of grain, but Yu Guo offered the price of one tael of silver and one hundred catty of grain. How could such a good thing get their turn?

Could it be that Emperor Yu bought food to equip his army and horses to attack them?
But this is an opportunity to make a fortune!You must know that the Marquis of the Moon is no bigger than theirs, and this huge sum of money can cover half a year's tax.

Such things as food have always been in short supply only for the common people, and the emperor will restock the next year after selling them.The king prefers gold and silver.

So to sell or not to sell?

This is a difficult problem.

The two sides stalemate for several days.

Seeing that time was running out, the diplomatic officials were unable to persuade the emperor of Hou Yueguo to sell them, and they were unable to complete the task for a long time, anxious like ants on a hot pot.

Fu Xuan was in the court hall, listening to the minister's report, frowning.

It is so useless to offer such generous conditions, but the officials sent out have not made any progress so far!
Fu Xuan looked at the officials in the court, and suddenly thought of a person.Just when he was about to send someone to find him, this person actually came to the door himself.

 small theater:

  Rizhao Kingdom: Bah, traitor!

  Are you salted fish today?

  Salted fish!
  Good night, bobobobo ヽ(*з`*)
