Situ Xing's eyes narrowed slightly, looking directly into Hu Yudao's eyes like an eagle falcon, as if he wanted to see through him completely, and said without any concealment when Hu Yudao was a little worried in his heart:

"Food!"

"Lots of grain!"

"This official needs a lot of grain to stabilize food prices and relieve the victims, and you don't want Zhibei County to starve all over the wilderness, right?"

Situ Xing's arm was placed on the table, and with the help of the strength of his arm, the spine in his body suddenly straightened, like a flying dragon, and poked out like a javelin.

Situ Xing's eyes were as sharp as sharp blades, and he looked directly at Hu Yudao and the others. The momentum of his whole body was even higher, and an invisible red qi rose from the top of his head and finally soared into the sky.

Mutter!

Mutter!

Mutter!

The dragon qi in the air rolled like boiling water under the stimulation of this red qi, and it was like a boulder falling on the calm water surface, forming ripples visible to the naked eye.

The bronze color symbolizes the law of the country, and the chains that symbolize order fly and entangle in the air like dragons. Form a huge network.

Not only Hu Yudao, but also Li Chengze and others are the fish in the net and the bird in the cage in front of this invisible giant net.

Hu Yudao and the others couldn't help but stiffen, as if there was an invisible shackle around them, or they were targeted by a wild beast, not only the back muscles were tense, but even the hairs on the whole body couldn't help but tremble.

Strong!

Although Situ Xing looks harmless to humans and animals on the surface, the momentum of his whole body is as thick as a mountain and as deep as the sea under the blessing of the dragon qi of the national law.

Even if they are all people who have been cultivating their qi for decades, they will inevitably have some decline.

"This... ”

I don't know if Situ carries righteousness and has the help of dragon energy, or his eyes are too sharp and his momentum is too strong.

After Hu Yudao and the others looked at each other's eyes for a long time, they seemed to be unable to bear the stinging pain, and even began to drift, and finally began to dodge.

The momentum that is already small has weakened a lot.

But even so, they don't want to give up the windfall profits they are about to get.

Now who doesn't know that if you have food, as long as you hoard it, it will definitely be a five-fold, ten-fold, or even ten-fold profit in the future.

Just because of Si Tu's words, let them give up the huge profits that are about to come in front of them.

How can they be willing?

As for the starvation that Situ said was all over the field, it was a matter of the government, so what did it have to do with them?

It's a big deal, when your conscience can't get over, just give some gruel. I can't say that I can still have the reputation of a good person!

Thinking of this, Hu Yudao seemed to have found the backbone of the heart, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva vigorously, calmed down his somewhat fearful heart, and said with some sophistry:

"Your Excellency!"

"It's not that we're hoarding and driving up prices, it's that this year's grain harvest is poor. This is ... ”

Situ Xing looked at Hu Yudao with cold eyes, as if he hadn't listened to his explanation at all, interrupted him a little rudely and arbitrarily, stretched out his two fingers, and said categorically:

"Double!"

"The yamen will collect the grain in your hands at twice the usual price. ”

"This!"

"This!"

"This!"

The atmosphere that had been blazing just now suddenly became quiet.

Several of the largest grain merchants in Zhibei County glanced at each other and suddenly became silent.

Even Hu Yudao, who can gag the most, is like an eggplant beaten by wind and frost.

Twice the price is already very low if it is a normal year.

But in a disaster year, twice the price is really not high.

Whether it was Hu Yudao, Bai Zizi and others, they didn't want to sell the grain in their hands to the government at such a low price.

They don't want to, and they don't dare to tear their faces with Si Tu Xing!

So there is only silence.

The heads of the families did not say a word, shrunk their heads like quails, and looked at the tea soup in front of them motionlessly, as if there was a completely strange world inside. It seems that there are well-known poems and articles in it.

"Huh!"

Situ Xing looked at the heads of the family as if they were carved wood and stone sculptures, and a trace of coldness couldn't help but rise in his eyes. The corners of his mouth turned up, and he smiled disdainfully.

It is no wonder that Shang Jun attaches great importance to agriculture and despises Shang Jia.

Because the merchant is too greedy!

For profit, they can sell their country, they can sell their conscience, they can even sell their souls.

This is not alarmist!

Whether it's a big dry or a previous life. This is mostly the case with businessmen.

As long as he is given enough profit, he can sell everything.

There is no bottom line at all.

During the Anti-Japanese War, a businessman in a certain province said that he was a nest of snakes and rats to raise food and materials for the invaders.

This is not an isolated case, nor is it unique to modern times.

China is not alone, either.

Why did the mustache and the Germans hate the Jews so much?

For they are like locusts and bloodsuckers, stretching their tentacles into the arteries of every nation, and sucking greedily.

Until they take control of a country's economic lifeline, or drain him.

As Mr. Marx summed up.

When the profit reaches 10 percent, they will be ready to move; when the profit reaches 50 percent, they will take risks; when the profit reaches 100 percent, they will dare to trample on all the laws of the world; and when the profit will reach 300 percent, they will dare to risk hanging.

And now the profit of grain in Zhibei County far exceeds 300 percent, and can even reach 500 percent, or even 1,000 percent!

With such a huge profit, every merchant wants to be dizzy, and in this case, any language will become hollow.

Talking to these businessmen about the law?

Talk to these businessmen about conscience?

Talk about morality with these businessmen?

No kidding!

They are merchants, not virgins, and they seek profit, even if it is stained red with blood or piled up with white bones.

With this understanding, Situ Xing didn't bother to speak, his face showed a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and his eyes were like sharp long knives piercing the hearts of Hu Yudao and others.

"Are you really going to do that?"

His voice was not high, nor was it very high-pitched, but it had an indescribable solemnity.

Hu Yudao and the others looked at Situ Xing's cold eyes and the strange look on his face, and their hearts couldn't help but burst.

For some reason, Situ at this time gave him a sense of danger.

It seems that as long as he doesn't deal with it properly, he may provoke a catastrophe.

"This!"

"This!"

Hu Yudao and Bai Zizi glanced at each other, and they both saw hesitation and indecision in each other's eyes.

The same goes for several others.

"Humph!"

Li Chengze saw that everyone was taken by the power of Situ Xing, and a look of shaking appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart. What a bunch of gutless rats.

"Lord Situ, is this threatening us?"

Situ Xing's eyes also narrowed slightly, as sharp as a blade.
