Wu Wenlong turned over with a wheel.

Of course he knew very well that if it weren't for something big, no one would dare to come to the back house to make noise.

So he hurriedly put on his shoes, dressed in his clothes, and his hair was scattered.

Then he saw that outside the house, the Wu family's accountant was standing here with a sad face.

Wu Wenlong couldn't help but frown and said, "What's going on?"

“There are many grain stores on the market.”

"Open...Open..."

These days, everyone knows that the grain will rise, so merchants are reluctant to sell it, and everyone is reluctant to sell it.

Logically speaking, such food shortage must be maintained until the end of the year at least.

But at this time...how could many grain shops open?

Wu Wenlong's face suddenly turned blue... This food is related to his wealth and life!

So he hurriedly said, "Why...for...for...?"

"I don't know." The accountant said: "I only know that there are a lot of grain stores open... It seems that some grain is beginning to appear on the market."

Someone is selling grain...

A thought flashed through Wu Wenlong's mind.

He continued to ask anxiously: "What is the price of food now?"

"It hasn't fallen yet, it's still sixteen taels and three cents of silver."

Wu Wenlong was a little panicked.

Although there has been no decline, in this situation, any turbulence is a fatal matter.

Wu Wenlong asked again: "Is there any news in the guild hall?"

"A lot of grain merchants have gone, and everyone says they won't sell them even if they die."

Having said that, the accountant's face was filled with worry.

Wu Wenlong nodded with a dejected look: "I...I change my clothes, I change my clothes...go out and take a look..."

After Wu Wenlong said that, he returned to the room in a panic and changed his clothes.

The concubine was also awakened and couldn't help but curl up in the brocade quilt and complain: "It's early in the morning..."

"Stop it." Wu Wenlong scolded her: "What do you know, you thief?"

After saying that, he was anxious to prepare the car and go out.

Arrive at the guild hall.

The guild hall was already crowded, and all the grain merchants were injected with chicken blood: "I won't sell it if I beat it to death."

"God will be disgusted by those who sell food!"

“It will rise…”

People were talking a lot, so Wu Wenlong inquired around and felt a little relieved.

Everyone cursed the grain shops that had opened their doors.

He also said that there were no rumors, and Jiangnan was also hit by disaster.

Food must rise.

Everyone continue to buy food quickly.

That's it.

Wu Wenlong's heart was calmer again.

Maybe...it's just some minor accidents.

Sure enough... the food price actually rose a little.

It's just that the increase is not very strong.

But this made everyone feel relieved again.

Someone must be a big acquisition.

Wu Wenlong was shocked and took a few sips of tea in the guild hall.

At noon, I found that I had nowhere to go, so I thought... I went home and took a nap.

He left the hall and sat in the car.

When passing by a grain store.

But I found that although there were some people buying grain in front of this grain store, they were far less lively than they were a few days ago.

"Stop and stop." He asked the coachman to stop the car, got out of the car, and saw a sign hanging at the entrance of the grain store.

"The current price: fifteen taels..."

Fifteen taels...

No.

Wu Wenlong shivered.

Didn’t it mean that it had risen a little?

Now the grain is in the hands of grain merchants. Logically speaking... as long as everyone doesn't sell it, and the people want to eat food, if they don't eat it, they will starve to death. Then...

Wu Wenlong felt something was wrong, so he quickly turned around and hurriedly said as he walked: "Go back quickly and go back to the guild hall."

Actually... many people already feel something is wrong.

The person who was still pumping blood in the morning is now starting to panic again.

At this time, Chen Moyan had already arrived. He lost his former demeanor. After coming in, he cursed: "Someone sells grain, who sells grain? Aren't we going forward and back together? By the end of the year, the price of grain will be at least twenty taels. Why are you waiting for it?"

Wu Wenlong saw Chen Moyan, who was usually calm and gentle, look like this, with an angry face. He seemed to try hard to show his control, so his tone was firm, but... it was completely inconsistent with his usual calmness, so... this actually aggravated Wu Wenlong's concerns.

Wu Wenlong couldn't help but say, "Mr. Chen, I wonder if the Chen family still purchases grain?"

"Cause, of course, you can collect as much as you want." Chen Moyan said angrily: "Who dares to make a bad thing? Carefully, you will lose all your money."

Everyone also cursed.

They all expressed that they would never sell grain, and that the seller would wait until the grain rose and cried.

But after one stick of incense.

Someone hurriedly said, "It's amazing, the price of grain outside... has reached 14 taels and 8 cents."

As soon as this statement comes out...

Everyone's face was as beautiful as earth.

Two information is revealed here.

One is that there are still many people selling food.

The second is... What Chen Moyan said was to try his best to collect food, but it was just a verbal promise. In fact, the Chen family did not do this at all.

So, everyone became anxious and surrounded Chen Moyan: "Mr. Chen, didn't you say you were collecting food?"

Chen Moyan's face turned pale and said, "Don't be afraid, this is just... someone is playing conspiracy."

"Mr. Chen, if the Chen family collects grain..."

Chen Moyan became more and more frightened.

In fact...

The entire guild hall was in full swing.

It seems that there is something invisibly pushing something.

"What to do, what to do, I have so much food..."

"Hurry, go home..."

Chen Moyan was still patiently explaining: "This is just a normal fluctuation, don't mislead the plan of a traitor..."

Wu Wenlong was no longer in the mood to listen to Chen Moyan's words.

He quickly went to find Li Qiyuan, the Minister of Revenue. After all, Li Qiyuan was the real decision.

But when I arrived at the Ministry of Revenue, I said that the Minister of Revenue Li Qiyuan had gone to the palace to meet him.

Wu Wenlong stomped his feet in a hurry, turned around and got into the car, and ran to the grain store again.

This time, Wu Wenlong was so shocked that he felt weak all over.

The price has actually reached 14 taels and 6 cents.

It took less than an hour to pass, and two cents of silver were lost in one stone.
