Chapter 1861 Almost laughed like a fool

More than ten days passed by, and for many people in Xiuyan Mansion, the various changes in these more than ten days were both expected and unexpected.

The biggest surprise for the rebel team led by Wei Wenguang was that when they were just ready to make a move and planned to build momentum, they suddenly heard a group of Mo people arrived in Fucheng and visited large, medium and small grain merchants one by one. With the prestige of the Mo family, they reduced the rising grain prices in Fucheng.

This almost made Wei Wenguang blind. If the food price remained at fifteen cents per pound, his rebellion plan would undoubtedly be destroyed at the speed of light and would not be forced to a certain extent, and the people would not be easily incited to rebel.

He has always stayed in Shangxi County, Xiuyan Prefecture, and worked hard to manage his reputation. Shien Township is to build this place into a base camp and base.

He did not consider the goals and territory outside Xiuyan Mansion.

Just as the grain prices plummeted and all the people at the bottom of Xiuyan Prefecture cheered, the group of Mo people who came to Xiuyan Prefecture all left. There was news that the Mo people were attracted by the good varieties that were full of acres. The Mo farmers were all leaving for the good varieties, and a small group of Mo heroes followed them to protect the Mo people.

More Mo Heroes were also quickly attracted away. It was said that the Xiuyan Mansion next door broke out again, turmoil that caught up with Wang San decades ago.

The last batch of Mo He gathered to go far away. The next day, in the grain shops of Xiuyan Mansion, which originally had 15 cents per kilogram, the grain that originally 15 cents per kilogram jumped directly to 50 cents per kilogram. In the following days, a few cents would increase every day.

Now the people at the bottom of the Fucheng City were almost scared and tortured. Forty cents per pound of rice had exceeded the wages of many grassroots such as the docks' coolies a day. All the wages could not be bought by a pound of rice. If a single bachelor was a little better, and if one had a family, it would be a disaster.

And if you don’t have enough food, you will be unable to continue working like a coolie.

Three days after such grain prices appeared, some small handicraftsmen became beggars. They almost had to rely on top wealthy families such as the Tang and Shen to have a meal to eat when they served porridge. Don’t doubt why handicraftsmen went bankrupt so quickly. They are the lowest class of society, and they can’t say that they have any spare money or have no ability to resist risks.

Even if you have outstanding skills and make money quickly, you may be targeted by the rascal girl. Set up a game to let you jump. You will not only lose all your property but also bear a lot of loans. Do you really think that the casino of Mr. Wang Yao and Wang make money every day, and they are born with so many people who love gambling?

There are many good people who didn't gamble before, but they became addicted after being cheated by the raspian Qingsie, and since then they became Master Wang Yao's ATM.

In this era, the government protected gentry like Mr. Wang Yao, who was not ordinary people who were cheated.

Top tycoons such as the Tang family and Shen family came forward to give porridge and earned a certain reputation. The Wang family and other grain merchants rushed to raise prices, which caused countless people to curse behind their backs. However, they still have to buy food. Almost every day, the number of beggars in Xiuyan Prefecture City is increasing steadily.

Outside the city, on the tenth day after Wei Wenguang and other seven brothers discussed, Han Jianzhou, the second son who led the northern business, sneaked into a group of hundreds of people to escape from the famine with more than a dozen veterans who had been licking blood from the knife. He easily incited refugees to join his group, targeted and purposeful killing not far away, killing people, grab food, and seize property.

Han Jianzhou did what he said. Among the group of refugees who followed him, there were only more than 30 young and strong people, and the other more than 200 were women, children, elderly and weak, and they were also those young and strong families.

He did not let these old and weak become cannon fodder or a tool for random enslavement, but he treated them like relatives. With Han Jianzhou's vision and personal salt for many years, his mind and skills were simple contact, and he could do what he said, do what he did, and do what he was fair and generous, almost made more than 30 young and strong people call out Brother Han and Boss Han from the bottom of their hearts.

After looting a local tyrant and evil gentry, Han Jianzhou did not rush to leave. He not only distributed the grain that was piled up in the other party's granary to his own team, but also to the civilians, tenants, etc. in the village.

You should know that since many years ago, with the idea of ​​rebellion, David Wenguang has been determined to build his hometown into a base and basic foundation. The foundations of various figures have been investigated and collected over the years.

Han Jianzhou set the first goal, and also lived with his neighbors. Speaking of which, there are many distant relatives in the village, but this person is a typical example of wealth and unkindness. No matter what kind of relatives, he should swallow his property. If a person can become a slave, he should try to become a slave. If he cannot, he should sell it directly.

In the village, he is the local emperor. Those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish. He can't count the ridiculous things he has done.

So Han Jianzhou came with more than ten veterans and more than thirty young and strong men who had just put down their hoes... all the other people in the village watched coldly.

It was not until Han Jianzhou distributed food that ordinary people cheered.

In just three days, Han Jianzhou's team expanded to 300 young and strong, old and weak... Well, he tried his best to arrange it, and they all went back to their own homes. Only the young and strong followed him, committing crimes, robbed the granary of local tyrants and evil gentry, and then transported them back to the hometown of the young and strong by carriages, trying to prevent their families from going hungry, let alone let the old and weak follow the large army.

On the fourth day, Han Jianzhou's team, after his fame, had already been fermented, and the number of people who could not survive in other areas was easily expanded to a thousand people.

Han Jianzhou operates well north of the city, but Zhang Shun, the third brother of the seven brothers, is not bad either. He easily developed a scale of thousands of people more than 20 miles away from the city. The targets they target are all rich people with poor reputation and no background. They can ensure that even if the big men in the city hear the news, they will not send people to quell the rebellion quickly.

This is very important. Only when the big thing happens, David Wenguang wants to set up a militia to defend the village will be justified and will not cause doubt in the early stage. If you want to make a big thing, you must ensure that the target of plundering in the early stage has little to do with the Tang family, Shen family, even the Zhang family, Wang family and other gentry families. It doesn’t matter. Those big guys will sit idly by and watch the development of the situation. Just like the rebellion of the Kings of Yunzhou that was suffocating more than 100,000 to harm all parties. Even if they did not harm the industries of the top wealthy families, nor did they harm their relatives, they would be allowed to become a big shot step by step. In the end, the Yao family reaped a wave of dividends, not only did they eat the people’s fat food, but also successfully allowed a child to be promoted to the Secretary of Lu for his judgment.

Everything is in an orderly manner. The city is one in the south and one in the north, and two waves of rioters with thousands of people are gradually developing. The news is gradually spreading outward and spreading to the Fucheng of Xiuyan Prefecture.
