Chapter 32

~3 min read 600 words

With the help of white porridge and pickled mustard greens, this group of people worked exceptionally hard!

After all, in the current world!

As long as you work, you can eat your fill, which is already a great thing!

In the Jiangdu County government office:

"Lord, there is a problem with the recent grain prices!"

Having become familiar with the government affairs of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cheng Yu walked over with a bamboo slip!

"Grain prices?!"

Hearing that there was a problem with grain prices, Lin Yang couldn't help but take the bamboo slip and take a look!

With just one glance, the price on it made Lin Yang furious!

"What's the situation with this grain price? A stone of grain costs 350 cash?!"

According to Lin Yang's memory, this Jiangdu County was located in Xuzhou, within Guangling Commandery!

Even if the Huang Jin were everywhere before, the disaster here was not great!

A stone of grain cost at most 150 cash!

How could it have risen by more than two times for no reason!

You have to know that grain prices are of great importance!

If it's too expensive, people will die!

It was recorded in the Book of Han!

When a stone of rice costs five thousand, people eat each other, and more than half die!

Eating children for food has never been just talk in the vast history!

"Lord, the fertile fields outside Jiangdu County have been destroyed, and the harvest in Jiangdu County next year will inevitably be affected!"

"Those noble family members who have returned are already secretly hoarding grain!"

Now that the Huang Jin bandits in Jiangdu County have been eliminated, some of those who fled have returned!

Especially those noble family members who hoard grain, they are taking advantage of this time to buy grain in large quantities and hoard goods for speculation!

Guangling Commandery Governor Zhang Chao seems to have plans to mobilize troops after the New Year!

Throughout Guangling Commandery, grain prices are also rising!

It's just that Jiangdu County has risen the most!

"350 cash a stone, they have a good appetite!"

This grain has already doubled, so how can ordinary people afford it!

"Zhongde, what do you think should be done about this!"

In troubled times, once war is encountered, grain prices will inevitably rise; this is inevitable!

Once the edict to crusade against Dong arrives in the spring of next year, Zhang Chao, this guy, will definitely send troops!

By then!

More than half of the grain in Guangling Commandery will be taken away by the other side!

By that time, grain prices will truly be sky-high!

He must plan ahead!

"May I ask, Lord, how many people can your grain feed?" Cheng Yu didn't answer, but looked at Lin Yang!

There was one thing he had to clarify!

Hearing Cheng Yu's question, Lin Yang frowned slightly!

He knew!

Cheng Yu was asking how much grain he had in reserve!

But thinking of the existence of the system, Lin Yang hesitated again and again!

"The current grain is enough for three thousand troops to eat and drink for ten years!"

With 100,000 white porridge and white flour buns every day, plus the supplies exchanged for Reputation, Lin Yang could afford to raise 100,000 troops!

However, in order not to scare Cheng Yu, Lin Yang spoke conservatively!

But after this data was spoken, Cheng Yu's look at Lin Yang became very strange!

Three thousand troops, eating and drinking for ten years?!

Hiss!

What kind of grain reserve is this!

Lord, you still say you don't want to rebel?!
