The Gods Creating System

However, they did not expect that Jiang Hengchu and Eshun were also in great shortage of food, because the war consumed too much food. Although it was not as miserable as Xiqi, when the news of Xiqi came, some people were even more helpless, because since the beginning of the trade ban, food merchants had nothing to do.

As for the food in the East and the south, one was consumed by war, the other was purchased by a mysterious firm at a low price, all of which belonged to the big business. Now they have no surplus food, and the price of food has gone up for a while.

Moreover, it is not only the increase in prices, but also the fact that there is no goods at all and there is no money to buy. Now, most of the vassals, big and small, are very anxious, but of course the most bitter ones are civilians and slaves.

Dashang's current policy is only to let in but not to let out. If they can escape to Dashang in the future, these people may still have land. Therefore, Jifa sent out all the troops. If anyone dares to escape, they will kill them directly.

However, this bloody means not only failed to solve the crisis, but also made the situation worse. The nobles or the common people were full of complaints. They kept writing letters every day, asking for help. It was not easy to appease the nobles. At this time, they began to make a voice of opposition, but Ji Fa was very worried.

At this time, the envoys of Jiang Hengchu and Eshun also brought back bad news. Because Eshun was defeated and retreated to the south, the supplies were also tight, and they wanted to ask Jifa for food. Jiang Hengchu also wanted to ask Jifa for food. There was no surplus food, so he couldn't borrow it. Hearing this, Ji was so angry that he was angry that he didn't care about his appearance in public. He patted the table and scolded Jiang Hengchu and Eshun!

At this time, the king of Turk also came to ask for help, and the urgent letters came like snowflakes, which made Jifa almost faint. At this time, Jiang Ziya made Jifa stable.

However, Jiang Ziya brought a piece of news. His spies found that some time ago, when someone was collecting orchid grass and Xiqi earthenware, a firm of Dashang bought grain at a low price and accumulated a large amount of grain. If they were willing to sell it, they could help them tide over the difficulties.

Ji Fa's heart was quite calm when he heard this. The business name he had heard was Regal business. It was also the largest business of big business. The shopkeeper of this business in Xiqi, surnamed Keng, was the person who paid the most taxes in Xiqi. Moreover, Regal business cooperated with the government a lot. During the drought, he also cooperated with Jichang to deliver grain for disaster relief.

When Ji Fa became xibohou, he also supported the merchant surnamed Keng and offered him gifts. All merchants in Xiqi liked to make profits. The practice of hoarding grain by rich merchants was just to get more money. Ji Fa also believed that as long as he personally ordered to buy grain from this semicolon, then Keng shopkeeper would never refuse.

But the shopkeeper of this pit is also very powerful. He has foresight. He bought so much grain when everyone was working on LAN you Cao and Xi Qi's earthenware. It seems that now we have to think of some ways to make an exception and give him an official job. Maybe this guy will offer food on his own initiative!

As expected, shopkeeper Keng came immediately after being summoned by the king. He was overjoyed to hear that Jifa was going to distribute the grain to the officials. He said that he was willing to sell part of the grain to the people at the price of the common people. He promised to give a large amount of grain to Xiqi.
