The Gods Creating System

All the land that should have been planted with grain was abandoned. After all, orchid grass was not a high-value thing. It was nothing. The most terrible thing was that there was not enough grain. It would be strange if there was no shortage of grain!

People who were supposed to grow grain went to the workshops to make the rare earthenware. The fields in their homes turned into orchid grass. There was still some harvest, but now there is no harvest in Chengdu.

There was still some grain in Xiqi's original granary. However, the number of Xiqi's army was increasing because of the need to deal with the big merchants. Those grains could not sustain the war at all, and they could barely cope with the daily consumption.

If Xiqi's army cuts people now, it may be effective, but the army that is hard to build is the army that can stand out in the world. It is impossible for Jifa to give up.

Fortunately, they have made some money in planting orchid grass and making Xiqi earthenware, so they should spend money on grain, which is also a helpless move.

However, when Jifa and Jiang Ziya were ready to buy food, the emperor issued another imperial edict, which destroyed Jifa's hope. That is to prohibit big merchants from trading with Xiqi and not with the rebels.

As soon as the edict was issued, Dashang closed all the checkpoints and prohibited any caravan from entering or leaving. For civilians, they were only allowed to enter and not allowed to leave. During this period, the merchants in Dashang were not allowed to trade with the outside world. They could only do business in Dashang. If they violated the edict, they would destroy their nine ethnic groups.

At the same time, each gateway has been closed. If the southeast princes want to trade, they must abide by the regulations and be approved by the prime minister. Moreover, strict restrictions have been imposed on the types of trade. Jiang Hengchu has also been directly targeted at economic sanctions.

Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya just wake up. Oh! All these were the means of the emperor. From the very beginning, the things that the queen liked spread all over the world in almost an instant. The emperor took the lead in making these things popular in the big business.

Then Xiqi began to plant orchid grass, and farmers began to make pottery in Xiqi, and then abandoned agriculture. Later, the emperor denied these three things, and let the prices of these three things plummet. Now, the prohibition of trade, which one is not a well planned strategy?

Every detail has been done so carefully, closely linked, and by means of money, we have never heard of attacking the enemy. Moreover, the effect is so strong that it is more powerful than a real fight. It easily destroyed the economy and livelihood of Xiqi and the north, and controlled the East and the south.

Even Jiang Ziya felt that his strategy was outstanding, but he could not help sweating behind him. In his mind, the figure of the great bank came out, and his heart was very cold. Is this tiger? Even if he fell asleep, it's terrible. Now the tiger has woken up. In fact, Jiang Ziya doesn't know that the tiger in his heart hasn't slept at all!

In the face of this situation, Ji Fa was helpless, but at the beginning, he also acquiesced in planting orchid grass and making Xiqi earthenware. He wanted to make more money and military spending, but now he was beaten back to his original shape by the other party.

Thinking of Jiang Ziya's persuading him not to abandon agriculture that day, I can't help regretting it. But now it's useless to regret it. The key is how to find a way to solve the problem of food shortage. If there is no food, the consequences will be unimaginable, and Xiqi's army will be finished.

Jiang Ziya's way is to find some wild things first for emergency. Another way is to find a way to buy food and raise food from the East and the south.
