Hundred Ghosts Night Walk

Chapter 118 Food shortage?

After a long time, only one person got up and said, "I report to the Prime Minister, for the current plan, we can send soldiers from all states to the northern border to help."

Immediately someone objected: "No! Our land is surrounded by enemies. At this moment, all countries are staring at each other. The soldiers of each state must not move lightly, otherwise the world will be in chaos."

There are also people who support it: "The northern border must not be lost! There are millions of soldiers on the borders of our great country. Even if we transfer a few, why should we be afraid of a small country?"

"Absurd! One hair can affect the whole body"

All the officials insisted on their own opinions, and after a few words, they quarreled.

What had been dreary not so long ago has become bustling.

"Everyone, it is imperative to transfer the army, but where to transfer, how much to transfer, and who will command the troops? But you must carefully consider it."

I don't know how long it took to quarrel before Li Dongyang set the tone, ended a round of quarrels, but started a new round of more intense disputes.

Probably because the right to command troops is extremely important.

Moreover, the merit of rushing to help this time must be almost comparable to the merit of conquering the north.

This is an opportunity to step up.

Which of these officials has no party behind it?

As for defeat?

Few people thought about it.

In their hearts, the great land is strong and prosperous, and the surrounding areas are just small countries.

This time the teacher was unfavorable, but it was just an accident.

It's not that our army is not good, but that the enemy army is too vicious to use such evil methods.

But even so, it was just taking advantage of one's unpreparedness. Now that one has preparedness, it is impossible for the foreign race to succeed.

The battles of many great figures in the court have nothing to do with Jiang Zhou.

Now he only cares about whether Wu Jun can maintain peace.

If there is an accident, how long can this peace last?

On the way out of Chuyun Tower, Jiang Zhou suddenly remembered that he had passed by Rice Grain Alley a few times before, and saw many people rushing to buy food.

Hearing the news of the war in the northern border today, for some reason, my heart suddenly jumped, and I came to Miliang Lane again by accident.

But I haven't entered it yet, I just stood there from a distance, and I saw the common people squeezed out of the street.

The crowded people are probably not tens of thousands.

A street is crowded to the brim, and it is impossible to enter again.

Almost all the common people came here with bags of money in their arms, almost like grabbing them, and moved bags of grain out of the rice shop.

But those who can grab food are only a few of the few.

The people carrying the food all smiled happily.

Most of them were screaming and crowded like crazy.

It may not be that there is no food in the grain store, but that the speed of grain production has been deliberately slowed down.

Just look at those people yelling frantically to buy grain at a higher price, and you can see why.

Jiang Zhou was thrilled to see it.

When did Wu Juncheng become so short of food?

During this period of time, he devoted himself to hunting and slaying monsters, and spent all his free time on cultivation. He seldom came out to hang out, and he didn't notice it at all.

Jiang Zhou hadn't figured out why he was going this way.

But now that I saw this scene, I understood a little bit.

The impact of the war has already spread in Daji.

But it wasn't because of the defeat of the Northern Expedition Army that directly affected the food price in Wu County.

Although it is certainly impossible for the two to have nothing to do with each other, but the distance is tens of thousands of miles away, and the defeat is nothing more than a single defeat. Let's not talk about whether the impact will be so far-reaching, but it will never be so fast.

This is by no means an ordinary food shortage, nor was it what he thought it was at the beginning. It was caused by the goddess Yanshan flooding many fertile fields.

Any movement in the market has rules and reasons to follow.

This law is nothing more than the word supply and demand.

Jiang Zhou didn't dare to say that he knew much about the inside knowledge.

But in such a large-scale food shortage, there are nine out of ten people who are causing trouble.

The first possibility is that the grain merchants are hoarding.

However, when the government still has absolute control, this approach is undoubtedly courting death.

No matter how chaotic it is outside, the government's control over Jun Wu is beyond doubt.

If it wasn't for the actions of the grain merchants, then it is possible that someone was secretly buying a large amount of grain and stockpiling grain. The purpose may be a bit intriguing.

What Jiang Zhou thought was that someone was using the Northern Expedition to stir up trouble.

However, hoarding a large amount of grain is essentially the same as the hoarding of grain merchants.

If there is no approval from the government, is that person courting death?

If it is said that the government approves, then he can't figure it out even more.

Wu Jun's chaos will benefit the government half a dime?

These thoughts made him seem to grasp something.

However, he still couldn't capture it clearly.

Some critical evidence is still missing, and some gaps have not been filled.

The logic couldn't be connected at all, and Jiang Zhou couldn't imagine it out of thin air.

With a sense of horror of the sudden shortage of food and a trace of suspicion, Jiang Zhou returned to the Sujing Division and put the matter aside for the time being.

I went to several grievance relief rooms, and inadvertently searched for people to inquire about some things.

It's about the mysterious Taoist priest Wang Bi mentioned.

In the past two days, Jiang Zhou discovered that Si Li had indeed started to investigate the Taoist priest.

It is said that Song Lian put pressure on him, and the order was issued directly from the prefect's mansion.

He directly charged the mysterious Taoist priest with a lot of crimes.

It is said that the evil way has exorcised souls and summoned ghosts without authorization, disturbing the underworld, and even disturbing the underworld. The crime cannot be pardoned, and he must be arrested and brought to justice.

Not only the Sujing Division, but also the Criminal Division was mobilized.

According to the order issued by the prefect's mansion, Xu Qing was personally in charge of the Sujing Division, and also asked to send people to the Song Family Manor on the outskirts of the city every day to report the case to the suffering master, Mr. Song.

Originally, Xu Qing wanted Jiang Zhou to join the investigation, after all, he was the one who pulled out this thread.

But because Jiang Zhou was busy preparing to deal with Yaoyao Xue, he found a reason to shirk.

When he inquired about this case, he just wanted to know about Song Lian's situation from the side.

If he asked Song Lian about it directly, he might be suspicious, and he didn't even dare to sneak a peek at the Song Family Manor outside the city.

After this round of inquiry, Jiang Zhou had a bottom line.

Two days ago, Song Lian was still able to personally come out, go in and out of the prefect's mansion, and use his influence to exert pressure.

No matter how reluctant Xu Qing was, he had no choice but to lead the team himself.

No, I heard that the trace of the Taoist was found today, and Xu Qing has personally led people to hunt him down.

As for Song Lian, he didn't bother anymore.

Listening to the patrol guards who went to Song's manor to report every day mentioned with envy that Mr. Song is really a great blessing, and he is surrounded by beauties every day when he goes there.

Even when people report letters, they are received on the bed through a screen and curtain.

Jiang Zhou knew that the wave was stable.

With a little peace of mind, he returned to his residence.

Looking for the impression left in my mind, groping for memories bit by bit, playing with the set of Spring and Autumn Eighteen Swords seen from the map of Wu Sheng Guan Gong.

When I saw the catalog for the first time, my impression was so vague that I could hardly remember it.

Since then, every time Jiang Zhou wants to watch it again, he has to consume a lot of energy and mind, and he can only watch it for a second or two at most.

Just looking at it is traumatizing.

Reciting the mantra, a willow leaf turned into a nine-foot-long Daguan knife in his hand.
