After dawn, outside Jiangning City

Gu Laosi, covered in scars, was lying in a mud. This place was originally a dry fish pond, and he was like a dead fish waiting to die. He was submerged in the mud that was turned out, and only two white eye beads were left.

Zi kept his last bit of anger.

It was originally a banquet for fellow villagers, but how could it turn out to be like this?

The atmosphere in the first half of the night was extremely warm. After drinking a lot of wine, he was able to meet the female lady who retired from the official.

From the first meeting between appearance and gas, he was extremely satisfied and surprised.

Then he lay in the same place with Chen Heng, who was left with Xiaoyi, and then, in guilt and shock, he hurriedly made a lifelong promise.

Then what happened completely knocked him from the paradise of ecstasy to a very dark abyss.

His fellow villager was actually from the Wude Department of the court, but this seemed to have nothing to do with it. Although his reputation was a bit bad, he was still an official who served the court.

The person who just slept with him was not a real daughter of a retired official, but a female sect specially invited from the official tutor. Because she was born as a criminal offender, she had no flaws in her role.

Let him easily enter the game.

This is not a good thing to tell him about his kindness, but a killing trap for him, a general from the Huai Army who was born in Jiangning. At dawn, they were in sight of the dawn.

If he hadn't been anxious at night but had slandered and went to the wrong direction, and accidentally heard a dialogue between the people, maybe he would have been completely kept in the dark.

In the end, he was the only one who escaped with his very good water nature and had a shirtless and short hips. The other guards and servants who had not had time to be prepared and reacted were already trapped.

His self-defense short gun, dagger blade, and a well-received nameplate, as well as a large number of silver treasures and Huai-style money tickets, all fell into the hands of the other party.

What made him even more frightened and shuddered was that the other party could actually use the public and local village heroes to prepare in advance to search for him, a thief who had lost his identity, who "harm the master, murdered and robbed people, and was lewd and noble family."

This also proved his terrible guess. The "membersmen" who set up a plan to imprison him and the fake official daughter, probably had already been silenced and fell on his head. And looking at the other party's backhand and arrangement

Obviously, it wouldn't be just targeting him like a mere little officer; I'm afraid he's already involved in a seemingly terrible right and wrong.

.........

In the carriage where night fell, I looked at the last batch of messages sent in before the seven gates of Jiangning City were closed, which was a kind of distracting mood and diverting some uneasy attention.

It was mainly a notice on the completion of summer harvest in the last area. The relevant personnel claimed that they almost reappeared, and the grand occasion of high grain yields during the Tianbao period.

"Five cents of rice, Qingqigu, Li Sanwen" is the record of the lowest period of grain prices in the prosperous era during the Tianbao period. For this reason, the government's Changping Warehouse could hardly put down the grain, and since then there has been no record of lower than this;

With the statistics of this summer harvest, the average grain prices in Huaibei Road and Yanbian prefectures have also dropped significantly;

According to the multiple sampling data in Xuzhou and Qingzhou, the local grain price has been lower than a bucket of brown rice to be sold for fifteen cents. If it is not unshelled, it only costs eleven or two cents. If it is a bit crude potato

Dried, sweet potato rice, or something, you can even buy a dou for only seven or eight cents; and the big dou used in Huaibei weights and measures (one dou is ten liters, weighing about 1.5 kilograms per liter) is nearly thirty kilograms of grain; in normal years,

It has been enough for the five members of the lowest class of society to eat it for ten days and half a month with the self-planted melon and vegetable sauce and salt.

Compared with other parties across the country who often spend dozens to hundreds of documents, and even when encountering disasters and turmoil, it is so cheap that it cannot be compared with Japanese. However, the food prices in Huai land are low

It is low, but it is basically not circulated to the outside world, and there are not many statements about low grains and harmful farmers in Taiping years;

Because through large-scale collective production and organizational system, most of the grain output is directly digested internally by transferring public grain and targeted procurement, and the daily needs of the corresponding production workers are internally through internal

The accumulated labor points of partial conversion and the rationing system of tickets are met; therefore, except for a small number of high-end enjoyment, luxury goods and entertainment needs, it does not directly have any connection with the fluctuations in the outside world's market price, so naturally there is nothing

What is going up is a concept.

Finally, only a small part of the remaining production controlled by the Tunminzhuang households will flow into various markets spontaneously formed in the local area; although the overall plate is still quite large, it is no longer possible under the regulatory measures of the government.

No matter what climate it has formed, it cannot cause any hype of hoarding; because although local markets allow the sale of rice and grains for a variety of stocks, the distribution of grains of more than 100 stones in total needs to be reported to the local city.

and declare use.

After all, in the chaotic times since ancient times, more people have the opportunity to survive or provide the food required for the corresponding combat cycle of the army. It has always been one of the key military materials and strategic resources that are controlled, and even in Huaizhen, there is no such thing as

There are exceptions. Therefore, all spontaneously formed food transactions and flows among the people are required to ensure that they can only occur and consume in Huaizhen, without any slightest of particles being allowed to flow out through unofficial channels.

However, in the face of huge benefits and price differences, there will always be people who are willing to take risks. However, they soon discovered that this is actually a serious matter that is not worth the effort.

Because, food exceeding this limit cannot be ignored in terms of volume and weight. It is not an easy thing to collect and accumulate sufficient quantities from many retail investors and small operators.

, because there are no big landlords or big grain shangs in Huaizhen, if you want to collect grain privately, you have to risk being sued and exposed to it, and collect and negotiate prices one by one on the market;

Then if you want to traffic out of the country on a long journey, you need trucks, horses, cattle and livestock and other heavy transportation means are also essential; thus, you want to avoid the public's eyes or secretly cover up your eyes and conduct large-scale entry and exit smuggling, which is simply a matter of

Impossible things. As for the investigation and blockade through Yanbian, and under the threat of many refugees and bandits, they will be sent to the corresponding area to obtain the price difference, the corresponding transportation and protection costs will be very high.

refer to.

Therefore, all bulk foreign grain transactions are always held in the hands of Huaizhen officials and their agents, mainly for private supply and assistance to friendly forces, and by the way, they carry out gradual bribery and infiltration, and then as a bulk

The barter targets are exchanged for specific large-scale production content such as sulfur, crude copper, cinnabar, mercury, and iron ingots.

Therefore, the most common situation among the people is that in Yanbian, some people use ants to move-in entrainment methods to produce canned biscuits and other portable and storage foods in Huaizhen, and then sell them out and make up the transactions that have been ordered.

Content. However, in consideration of investment costs and manpower maintenance, this kind of small-scale side-checking and ball-style profit-making method is no longer within the scope of Huaizhen’s key crackdown and control.

After half an hour,

"Sister, please feel sorry for the changes..."

I looked at Mrs. Chen, whose eyes were swollen and haggard, and said some nourishing words, which barely ended the dull meeting.

"You can discuss everything with me..."

"I should do my best if I have any hello."

"The real murderer will definitely not be allowed to be free from it..."

"In addition, I also brought the best gun wound medicine and needle knife experts..."

It was not until I walked out of the Ning Mansion that I breathed a sigh of relief with a little depressed breath. After this visit, I learned that some people had complicated expressions and a little depressing atmosphere, because the assassin's body found on the scene was obviously some northerners, while the muskets used were in the style of Huai, and some inconspicuous small objects on their bodies were also related to the army in the north;

This inevitably makes people feel a little embarrassed and speechless; this is really a mud falling on the crotch and it is difficult to argue. You should know that in recent years, there have been a lot of old and eliminated muskets sold privately through various channels, but this requires consideration and explanation, which involves a lot of interests and cannot be stated clearly on the table.

After the boring visit and disappointing return, I decided to continue to go to the Imperial Hospital to visit the cheap brother-in-law, General Manager Ning. No matter what, being able to confirm this person's situation and finding ways to improve him as much as possible is undoubtedly a key to changing this situation.

It seemed that I was infected by my emotions and mood. Xiao Jinjun, who had just married, also became solemn and calm.

"That's right,..."

Then I asked her casually,

"What did my sister explain to you just now?"

"I just asked about the marriage."

She thought about it and said

"And I kept inviting me to visit her Meishan Pavilion..."

"Oh, that's it."

I walked out with some disappointment and not long before I walked out. The moment I held her and stepped onto the carriage again, my heart slowly came back to my senses.

"wrong.."

As a husband, Mr. Ning was seriously injured and was still treated in the Imperial Hospital and did not go home, my sister was so calm. She knew that this might have involved my subordinates' situation, but she kept talking to me, Xiao Jinjun, who had been repairing Meishan Pavilion, and emphasized that she would take Guangzhou to stay there in the future. What does this mean?

Or is this a reminder to me that something happened in the Meishan Pavilion back then; I suddenly remembered some details that were ignored at that time, such as the mistress who was sad, the servants and guards were a little too indifferent and hunched. They really didn't look like the family and family members who were both prosperous and intoxicated with the master's family and had a very close relationship with their personal dependence.

At this moment, with a sudden crisp sound, the carved crystal pane of the carriage I was riding in instantly shattered and splashed, and it was completely roaring near me in an instant.

"There are assassins..."

"Be careful...the musket"

“The direction is at half past eight…”

Then the counterattack sounded like a burst of beans.

“Distributing now…”

I made a quick decision to protect her. Xiao Jinjun, who was a little pale and had a pale face, pressed her under the window and shouted.

"Can't go to the Iranian hospital anymore..."

"Let's go back to Stone City first..."

After many changes of routes and the busy running for a while, I finally saw the camp bars with my claws and wind and thunder flags floating near the intersection of Xiaoxi City. I suddenly felt relieved and a stone in my heart fell to the ground;

"Please stay and give me a testimony..."

Then I shouted solemnly at Li Guanyu, who was also surrounded by my guards.

"Send someone to inform the left-behind department again,"

"Someone disturbed the wedding one after another, and assassinated important officials of the court."

"This Jiangning City is too horrifying."

"Not to mention that it was shocking and hindering Jin Jun's health and well-being..."

"Jiangning Prefecture and the Left-behind Office must give an explanation..."

"Before this, I dare not trust the ability of the guards in the city anymore..."

Of course, although I looked stern and stern to him, I didn’t have much horror or anger at that time.

Because the firearm attack just now was actually a scene where I temporarily sent someone to direct and act; and the time I walked through the street with the ceremonial guards and guards was enough to send my message and message. Just find someone to shoot one or two shots at my frame in the right position. The subsequent effect and the ending will naturally be my guards to improve and supplement, and then replace and receive people by the way.
