Chapter 200
"Hey, Captain Wen is here early."

The magistrate smiled at the visitor and got up to greet him.

Wen Fengwei replied with a smile: "There was an accident on the road, thanks to this little girl."

The magistrate looked at Liu Yezi and said, "This is the little girl from the Liu family."

"The magistrate knows?"

"I know, it has something to do with the Cheng family."

Wen Feng didn't hear the words, his eyes changed a little.

Liu Yezi: "I just helped out out of kindness, I don't want any compliments, just let me go, I still have something to do."

The master on the side looked at Liu Yezi with interest: "Your second uncle just left and has already taken care of your family affairs. What else do you have to worry about?"

Liu Yezi: "I'm in a hurry to go to Cheng's house."

A look of contempt flashed in the eyes of the magistrate, and then he still showed a polite look.

"Don't worry, since you have done a good deed, Captain Wen hasn't said anything yet, so don't rush to leave now."

Wen Fengwei: "Since the little girl is in a hurry, let's go first. I also know your name. I will visit you in the future."

Hearing this, Liu Yezi walked quickly, and said, "You don't ask for anything in return for doing good deeds, so you don't need to come, just do more good deeds in the future."

What are you coming, trouble.

After Liu Yezi left, Wen Fengwei closed his eyes, and entered the inner room with the county magistrate.

"how?"

"Still...don't have any clue."

Wen Feng didn't frown: "Is it true that you can't find it at all?"

The county magistrate was also very helpless: "Yes, I really have no clue."

Wen Feng didn't see it and said: "Don't worry, this matter has been taken over by the general, and the people involved are a bit complicated, it's normal if you can't find out, I was dispatched by the general this time, so I took over This thing."

The magistrate of the county seemed to be pardoned: "Then, it's really hard for Captain Wen."

Wen Feng didn't laugh anymore: "Now I'm a special envoy, not a school lieutenant. I'm new here, and I still need you to take care of me. I'll take over the matter after I've recuperated."

"No rush, the special envoy can rest for two days before talking."

When the county magistrate said this, he laughed in his heart.

This dilapidated stall was finally out of his control, but he was overjoyed.

As for whether Wen Fengwei can be found out, he is not worried anymore, after all, the people above Wen Fengwei are enough to take care of these things.

He should continue to be his leisure magistrate.

The master was beside him, and he also breathed a sigh of relief, and they finally didn't have to be tortured together anymore.

Here, after Liu Yezi arrived at Cheng's house, she went into Cheng Xiuyang's house and saw him calculating something with the ledger.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Yezi leaned over to take a look, then moved her eyes away.

Cheng Xiuyang: "Make money."

Two words, concise and to the point.

Liu Yezi: "I'm also preparing to make money. Then we can compare and see who makes more money."

Cheng Xiuyang didn't think too much, and said directly: "I have many."

Liu Ye: "Are you so confident?"

Cheng Xiuyang: "The capital is more than yours, the vision is more accurate than yours, the purpose is clear, the return is generous, and the chance of failure is less than one in ten thousand."

Liu Ye: "..."

Okay, the little ancestor is really getting more and more eloquent.

Liu Yezi was also curious, and asked him: "Then what do you rely on to make money, let me listen to you, I have my own bottom line, don't worry, I won't copy you."

Cheng Xiuyang: "Tarn up grain."

Liu Yezi: "Storing grain? Will there be a shortage of food in the future? How long will it be?"

Cheng Xiuyang: "It's missing."

Liu Ye: "???"

She is a little uncertain now, do she and Cheng Xiuyang live in the same time and space?

Seeing Liu Yezi's puzzled expression, Cheng Xiuyang explained to her patiently and carefully: "This winter, the snowstorm in the north is severe, many people die, the border is unstable, and wars are likely to occur. In February at the latest, taxes and grains will increase, affecting Guyu County. "

Liu Yezi was stunned for a while, and said in puzzlement, "How do you know this news?"

Cheng Xiu said, "Snow."

Liu Yezi didn't speak for a while.

Cheng Xiuyang smiled slightly at Liu Yezi: "Xiao Zhan, it won't affect much."

Liu Ye: "How many people do you think know about this?"

Cheng Xiuyang: "People above the court know it, and below it, one-tenth."

Liu Yezi: "Then do you think it's too late for me to start hoarding food now?"

Cheng Xiu shook his head: "You don't have enough money and power to store food."

Liu Ye: "..."

After a while, Liu Yezi couldn't help but said: "But this, isn't it considered a disaster for the country?"

Cheng Xiuyang looked indifferent: "National disaster, it doesn't count."

Seeing the change in Liu Yezi's eyes, he said again: "The food is sold to profiteers and corrupt officials. The people here have little influence. If you want a high price, you must sell it to the north. It is not worth it if you take the risk of shipping into account."

Liu Yezi thought about it again, yes.

The Cheng family's food is also the main source of money. When the time comes for the war in the north, some people will definitely buy the food first and sell it at a high price later.

Cheng Xiuyang's move is to earn money from those people, but in disguise, it also constitutes a part of the bad fortune of those black-hearted businessmen.

Liu Yezi was a little tangled in her heart. She never wanted to be a good person, but when she encountered this kind of behavior, she still felt that such behavior was a bit... Although the Cheng family, Cheng Xiuyang, did not make money from ordinary people.

Moreover, Liu Yezi was not surprised that Cheng Xiuyang would do this kind of thing, and he himself didn't care much about these things.

Seeing that Liu Yezi's eyes were always very complicated, Cheng Xiu narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly and looked at her.

"Are you unhappy?" Aren't you making money, the money you earn is all yours, why are you unhappy?

"No." Liu Yezi replied, she was indeed not unhappy, but her mood was a bit complicated.

Cheng Xiuyang: "You are troubled."

Liu Yezi rested her chin: "Yeah, the people in the north will be miserable this time, and many people will die, because these profiteers will definitely sell food at high prices. In order to survive, many people will have to leave their homes and sell their children. Female, selling land and houses.

Those who made it through this time will look back and find, well, although they survived, they have lost everything, those profiteers are getting fatter, and those big landlords have more and more land.

Then, they can only rent the land, and if something happens again, they can only sell it themselves.

Ugh…"

This is a historical process in a certain sense, and then develops to a certain point, is broken, and then reshuffles to establish a new order.

From a historical point of view, I just feel that this is an inevitable law, but living at this time, you can truly feel the cruelty of history, because the pain and tragedy during this period are real, and then disappear in the dust.

In the history books, no ink will be stained at all, and it may be just a collective name for an event.
