What my sister didn't know was that the coffin of her ancestral tomb was empty, and there was no remains of her ancestor except for the coffin board under the mound.

At the beginning of the rebellion in Zhoushan, Lotte dug the ancestral grave of Hai Dawang's family, after using this trick, Lotte was also afraid that others would bring Yin himself next, so he secretly bought a piece of feng shui to move the remains of his ancestors, so the ancestral house of the Le family in front of him was already an empty tomb, but no one knew the truth.

Whenever I see my sister's energy in the pile of empty graves, Lotte can't help but feel a chill in my heart. Forget it! It's better not to talk to your sister about these things.

While worshipping, while looking at the three newly made tombstones, Mrs. Le Shi of the Five Grades of Destiny did not know how many times she had examined it, and the names of her father, grandfather, and great-grandfather were all engraved.

The hearts of the onlookers were even more envious and admired, not only Lotte was a member of the three grades of the dynasty, but also Le's husband Li Liang was also stained with the light of his uncle Lotte, and was awarded a martial arts position of the seventh grade, and the county lord was polite when he saw him.

With his face facing the loess and his back to the sky, Pingyu has not known how many families have been studying and farming for generations, and there are not a few officials, not to mention those who can glorify their ancestors as big officials.

Many people privately associate that the Son of Heaven can do the country, that is the ancestral grave is a good occupation of the dragon vein, Pingyu This land is not much without mountains and rivers, naturally there is no dragon vein, I think there will be an official vein, you can come out of some official spirit, and it is occupied by Lejia, so Lejia has such a number one person.

After the tombstone placement ceremony, in the celebratory crowd, a familiar face appeared in Lotte's sight.

"Brother Yu!" Surrounded by the crowd, Lotte arched his hand towards the face.

"Lord Lehou!" The man hurriedly returned the salute. This person is none other than Yu Ruozhuo, who is familiar with Le and became an official because of Li Bangyan's recommendation, and because Li Bangyan and Lotte failed to fight, he returned to Yu Ruozhuo in Pingyu again.

Hearing Lotte and Yu Ruozhuo talking, the officials and squires who surrounded Lotte in front of him hurriedly moved out of the way.

In the past two years, Yu Ruozhuo has not had a good time, since Gongtian has set up a branch in Pingyu, it seems that Zhang Shen like Ruozhuo has become the target of blackmail, and life is very difficult. Lotte also learned about this from his father-in-law Qin and the villagers who went to Biandu.

Lotte smiled and invited: "Le's business in Biandu needs the help of hometown people who know each other, can Brother Yu put down his hands and make a living to help Le Mou or two?" ”

Listening to Lotte's invitation to Ruozhuo, many people's eyes immediately flashed, and it was unbelievable to be able to climb Lotte.

"Yu Mou ......" Yu Ruozhuo smiled bitterly and shook his head, because Li Bangyan wanted to refuse, but he was really aggrieved in the past two years, and he knew the truth that if he had no power and no power, he would be oppressed by others.

"Brother Yu, don't worry, take care of the family affairs, and Le will send someone to invite you!" Knowing that Li Ruozhuo was in a dilemma, Lotte looked for him to go down the stairs, and then he arched his hand again: "On the fourth day of the next month, the foolish brother will get married, and I will invite Brother Yu to appreciate the light and go to the house to eat a few glasses of wine." ”

Yu Ruozhuo arched his hand and smiled: "Hou Ye is very happy, that is, Hou Ye doesn't say it, he wants to come to the door to ask for a few glasses of happy wine to eat!" ”

Seeing the dialogue between Lotte and Yu Ruozhuo, many people sighed, before Lotte had a very good relationship with this official when he was in peace, and now he took the initiative to invite, which is just around the corner for the official to soar.

Lotte has its own reasons for doing this, its own business and industry are getting bigger and bigger, and it urgently needs the help of reliable people from the hometown.

……

In the second year of Xuanhe, there was a severe drought in the prefectures and counties around Gyeonggi.

Lotte returned to Biandu from Pingyu, and it was close to the end of May, and the drought still did not show signs of alleviation. At this time, the influx of displaced people from the surrounding prefectures and counties of Gyeonggi was increasing, because the rice harvest was out this spring, and a large number of people poured in, and the price of rice in Biandu gradually began to rise.

Because the year is not good, the price of rice of seven or eight hundred and one stone is not how to come out, and the people can understand it, but at the end of April, it has risen to the usual three hangings of one stone, which has doubled, but it has only been more than half a month and the situation has risen to the usual eight hangings.

Moreover, the merchants are even playing the banner of insufficient grain stocks, and it seems that there is a trend of breaking through the two.

In previous years, when the economy was good and the economy was stable, the price of rice in the Great Song Dynasty was only three to six hundred and one stones, and now it is about to reach two times, what a sky-high price. Ordinary people work for a month at most only half a consistent wage, and the price of rice for the forbidden soldiers and soldiers in a month remains high, which makes the people of Biandu City resentful.

No treacherous business, no business, no business!

When the grain merchants in Biandu secretly reached an agreement and prepared to hoard their homes, several teams of grain ships from Haizhou stopped at the Bianhe River outside the East Water Gate, and there was a rice shop on the side of the Bianhe River in the outer city of the East Water Gate with great fanfare, and the price of rice marked was the same as before, waiting for 701 stones, and ordinary rice was more than 600 stones.

Those grain merchants who were planning to hoard were angry at the moment, and they wanted to make a windfall by this, but they were stunned and broke the rules by the stunned young man who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and they were busy gathering together to discuss countermeasures, and some people even became famous to demolish this rice shop that did not understand the rules.

Soon someone came back to report that the plaque of the newly opened rice shop by the Bianhe River in the outer city clearly wrote the word "Hua", and some people revealed that the owner of this rice shop was none other than the Marquis of Dali Temple.

This spring, Lotte ordered people to purchase rice and grain in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Chuzhou to alleviate the disaster in Gyeonggi.

Knowing the back of the Huami store, the merchants began to fall silent.

Who is Lord Le? That's a red man in front of the Son of Heaven, but also a person who wants to be the emperor's son-in-law, the powerful and powerful people are more saints of the Son of Heaven, and a group of profiteers dare to knock hard with Lotte, knocking is also an egg hitting a stone.

It is obviously not feasible to be hard-hitting, but the profiteers have the calculations of the profiteers, and they have been hoarding for so long, how can they see the huge profits that are about to be lost, so a group of grain merchants bought rice and grain in large quantities from the Huapiao number with cash in their hands and hoarded them, on the other hand, their own rice grain did not degrade at all.

Soon, the actions of the grain merchants reached Lotte's ears, and Lotte smiled lightly: "The merchant is very profitable, and there is a profit of one percent, and it dares to guarantee that it will be used everywhere; There are two percent of the profits, and it is active; There is fifty percent of the profits, and it takes risks; For the sake of doubling the profits, it dares to trample on all human laws; There is a triple profit; It dares to commit any crime! ”

The shopkeeper of the Chinese rice shop came to ask for instructions: "Master Hou, if this goes on for a long time, these traitors will buy all the rice and grain in the store, will we also raise the price of rice?" ”

"Don't mention it!" Lotte shook his head: "Le has his own way to deal with them." ”

……

Soon, after being bought in large quantities by a group of profiteers, a sign saying "Rice has been sold out" was hung in front of the door of the Chinese rice shop.

Seeing the sign of "rice has been sold out" hung up in the Chinese rice store, a group of grain merchants couldn't help but celebrate.

When the people who were in urgent need of rice and grain saw this word, their eyes immediately turned red, how could ordinary people buy rice that was so expensive with such a small monthly income.

"Open the door, open the door, I'm going to buy rice!"

Seeing the sign hung up in the Chinese rice store, a group of people who couldn't buy cheap rice and grain shouted.

"Sorry guest officers, the rice in our grain store has been sold out, if you want to buy rice, wait two days, we will still have rice from Chuzhou!" Hearing someone call the door, a young man came out to salute and said.

Listening to the young man's words, someone sighed: "The family has run out of food, how can I wait for two days!" ”

"Are you also like those profiteers, planning to hoard and sell high-priced black-hearted grain?" Some people said angrily.

The young man turned his figure to the side, made way at the door, and said, "If you don't believe me, you can come into the shop and check the granary!" ”

Since people can do this, it proves that they are not lying.

"The price of rice over there is fifteen dollars a catty, how can I afford to buy it!"

"In the past, I waited for dry rice, but now because the price of rice is gradually rising, three meals a day have been changed to two meals, and it has changed from dry to thin.

……

A group of people who couldn't buy food began to complain, but they had no choice but to buy the fifteen-one catties of rice.

When the people walked to other rice shops, they saw that the rice shops had put up today's rice prices.

Not only one, but the rice shops in the entire Biandu City have put up a high price of two runs and one stone.

"Why has the price of rice risen again?" Seeing the rising price of rice, some people couldn't help but be angry.

"Do you like to buy it or not?" The young man was very disdainful, chuckled and shouted: "It's not that I advise you, start early, I'm afraid it will rise to two dollars in a few days." ”

"You have the ability to rise now!" Some people who bought grain shouted angrily.

"yes, yes!"

The rest of the angry people cried out.

The shopkeeper listened to the voice, walked out and said with a disgusted face: "Whether it goes up or not, it's just a matter of my pen, the poor ghosts want to buy it, don't buy it, don't bother in this city!" ”

Listen to the shopkeeper's words: "You are just the one who runs a rice shop, the Shi family is the businessman, you are at the bottom, you have earned all the black money, and you still call us like this!" ”

When the young man saw that the shopkeeper was talking like this, his arrogance was even higher: "Do you like to buy or not, don't stand in the way of our business!" ”

"In the long run, one stone of rice is my salary for two months, let me wait how to live!" Some of the people were angry.

"If this continues, I won't be able to live!" Someone shook their heads and sighed.

"I'm just going to do business, what do you have to do with me if you don't live or not!" The boy snorted.

"What did you say?" The angry people asked.

At this time, someone shouted: "These profiteers are all in cahoots and hook up with each other, otherwise the price will rise together!" ”

"Yes, this one is right!" As soon as the man's voice fell, someone chimed in.

Then the man who spoke before continued: "Such a profiteer, it is better to smash his shop, so as to teach them to know that we are not easy to bully!" ”

"Smash his shop and rob his food, do you still bully the people like this?"

"The profiteers are unscrupulous, and the law does not blame the public, so I will smash his shop, so as to teach them that these profiteers know how powerful we are and the people."

……

Someone fanned the flames and immediately mobilized the anger of the people of Biandu because of the price adjustment of rice, like pouring a spoonful of water into hot oil and immediately frying the pot.
