Chapter 431 The Nightmare of the Jinling County Family Begins
Miss Xuanxuan's face was filled with shock!
If she loses, then wouldn't the Holy Mother Church have to withdraw from Jiangnan? ?
But...she really has no say in this matter!
This this……
Miss Xuanxuan was panicked!
This was the first time she felt so panicked since she became the Saint of the Virgin Mary Church!
But on the other side, Jiang Chen was leisurely enjoying the moon in the yard.
Now, those grain merchants and wealthy families must be going crazy with anxiety!
Let them be arrogant!
See how they fight!
Jiang Chen looked very proud.
At this time, Zhihua suddenly came to Jiang Chen.
At this time, Zhihua was wearing an extremely sexy light green long skirt.
The hem of the long skirt was made of green gauze.
As Zhihua walked, her long, snow-white legs were faintly visible.
Jiang Chen looked at this scene, his eyes filled with passion!
"My Lord, it's late. Please go inside and rest."
"I will serve you~"
After Zhihua came to Jiang Chen, she spoke with a charming look on her face.
But when Jiang Chen heard this, he pulled Zhihua into his arms.
"Master Hou~"
Zhihua was distracted by Jiang Chen's sudden attack.
"Haha, Zhihua, you are so beautiful~"
Jiang Chen hugged the beauty and gently played with her hair!
"My Lord, you like me, which is my greatest blessing."
Zhihua said this with a cute face.
"haha, really?"
Jiang Chen smiled without comment.
However, his smile made Zhihua nervous!
Could it be that Jiang Chen knew something! ?
Why does Jiang Chen feel weird?
But just when Zhihua was feeling confused, Jiang Chen walked into the room holding Zhihua!
Jiang Chen put Zhihua on the bed.
The next second, Zhihua stretched out her legs and wrapped them around Jiang Chen's waist.
A battle is inevitable...
……
The next morning, Lu Xiu came to Jiang Chen's residence.
"My Lord, I am sorry for disturbing you so hastily. Please forgive me!"
Lu Xiu saw Jiang Chen and spoke respectfully.
"Haha, Master Lu, you are too polite. You and I are brothers, there is no need to be so formal!"
"I wonder if Master Lu has something to teach you this time?"
Jiang Chen asked with a smile on his face.
"My lord, I came here this time to do a business with you. I hope you can agree!" Lu Xiu said respectfully.
"Business? What business?"
Jiang Chen acted puzzled.
"My Lord, this is the case. I know you are eager to help the disaster relief efforts. My Lu family has a lot of food and I plan to sell it to you at a low price. I wonder if you can agree to it!"
Lu Xiu said this with a smile, while staring at Jiang Chen.
If Jiang Chen refuses, then... his Lu family will be in trouble!
“Brother Lu, you are really making things difficult for me!”
Jiang Chen pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Brother Lu, you should also know that a batch of food just arrived two days ago. Now Jinling is not short of food!"
"Besides, your grain prices are too high. I can't accept them!"
"My Lord, I...I know you are in trouble."
"But you and I are brothers, aren't we?"
"Besides, the price of grain in my Lu family is not high!"
"Siwen, do you think it's okay?"
Lucius said through gritted teeth.
Two days ago, the price of grain was still over 500 Wen!
Now, directly four texts...
This is a big loss!
"Four cents?"
Jiang Chen looked thoughtful.
But my heart was already filled with joy.
"My Lord, please give me some face!"
"My Lu family will never forget your great kindness, Lord Marquis!" Lu Xiu said respectfully.
……
“Hey! Brother Lu, since you said so, what else can I say!”
"Four cents is fine then!"
"I want them all!"
"Send someone to deliver the food to the treasury later!"
"Thank you, sir! Thank you very much!"
After hearing what Jiang Chen said, Lu Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As the Lu family sold grain for four cents, other grain merchants and families also began to sell grain.
What's more, the price was reduced to three cents!
Jiang Chen couldn't stop laughing when he heard this!
He collected all the food!
This time, not only Jinling County, but even the entire Jiangnan region will have no shortage of food!
At the same time, this incident also brought about a chain reaction.
Not only in Jinling County, but also in Suzhou and Yangzhou, the price of grain dropped instantly!
After learning all this, Jiang Chen came to the treasury, collected his food, and put the sand and stones back into the space.
After doing all this, Jiang Chen laughed out loud!
"Hahaha, the three counties of Jiangnan!"
"This time, let's see what you, the Holy Mother Church and the remnants of the previous dynasty, can do!"
"Hahaha!"
Jiang Chen laughed and left the treasury.
By the beginning of this night, two-thirds of the situation in Jinling County had been resolved!
As for the remaining one third...
"What!? Someone from the government office came and asked us to hand over our slaves!?"
"Why? Why should our domestic slaves be handed over to work?!"
"What did you say? They brought the registration list and said that those servants had gone to collect food before, so... they are considered disaster victims and must work!"
"This……"
……
The next morning, all the families, big and small, in Jinling County were stunned!
Because, those guards, holding the roster, actually started going door to door to ask for people!
How could these families agree to this?
They originally released the slaves to collect food in order to consume the food in the treasury as quickly as possible so that they could profit from it!
But now it seems that this... this situation is not right!
Just when the family heads were feeling puzzled, the imperial guards rushed in and "invited" the family heads to the government office.
"Jiang... Lord Jiang..."
When many family heads arrived at the government office and saw Jiang Chen, they were all stunned!
At this time, Jiang Chen was wearing a white shirt and holding a pure gold sword in his hand!
That... that sword should be the legendary sword that can kill first and report later, right?
"Well, all the family heads please take a seat first, everyone is not here yet!"
"When everyone is here, we'll talk about it together!"
Jiang Chen smiled faintly.
But those family heads felt a chill down their spine!
Even the Jinling County Magistrate who was sitting next to Jiang Chen felt a chill on his back!
He didn't understand what Jiang Chen was going to do!
After a while, two people appeared to everyone's surprise!
The head of the Lu family, and... Lu Xiu!
"Master Lu!?"
"This……"
Everyone saw that Patriarch Lu and Lu Xiu were both brought here!
Even more surprised!
"Haha, good, everyone is here!"
"Then, I'll start!"
Jiang Chen smiled faintly, and then said to everyone: "Fellow Patriarchs, you are polite!"
"The reason why I invited you here today is very simple. It's just two things!"
"First, I want to ask the heads of all the families whether they want to disobey the imperial order and deliberately cause trouble during the disaster!"
"this……!?"
When everyone heard Jiang Chen's words, they were all dumbfounded!
"Lord Jiang, we don't have it!"
"My Lord, we absolutely dare not do that!"
"Master Hou..."
