Chapter 1185: The local tycoon is very greedy

Shuibin Mansion is the easternmost coastal area of ​​the Great Zhou Dynasty. It can be said that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. The local tyrants and evil gentry in this place are very courageous. Many local tyrants have contacts with the surrounding barbarians and Japanese bandits.For farmers, individual households cannot be the masters, and the big landowners have limited respect for the court. Whoever gives more money will naturally sell their grain to whomever they pay.The profiteers collected grain at high prices, which caused the price of grain to skyrocket, and the government received less grain. Then these profiteers would sell the grain to the government at a higher price, and the government had to collect it if they got enough.Because the government cannot get grain, it cannot complete the task of collecting grain and grass, and will be held accountable by the court.

The government could not forcefully take back the grain and grass, because the grain and grass collected by the local tyrants had been transferred away by the Japanese people. When the government had to collect the grain at a high price, the Japanese people would transport it back.These local tycoons also occupy Shubin Port, which is the necessary outlet for grain transportation in the North Sea and the only large port.If we don't take this sea route, we have to travel more than 2000 miles overland to transport food, which is more expensive.If the government forces them into a hurry, not only will the grain and grass not be returned, but the grain transport ship will also be attacked by "pirates".

It seems that the government has no choice but to bear the pain and pay.

But the appetite of these wealthy families does not stop there, they also want to seek a title.

"The prodigal son of the Dugu family can be named General Thorn Branch. He has only been to Hongmeng Academy for less than a year, and he has a shitty ability. I just heard that he played with Princess Huyang. How can our family not do that? Should I be granted a title of marquis? Hongmeng Academy is about to enroll students again, and our children have to go too, and they will be the heirs."

A group of local tycoons gathered together, flirting with a few Japanese military generals, and dreaming of eternal dreams.

The Japanese military general was more direct: "We want the Emperor of Zhou to make us the guardians of the country. He Guandong, I Guanxi."

As long as they have the official position granted by the emperor of Zhou Dynasty, they will have great righteousness. After that, they can hold high the banner and claim kingship. Da Zhou can only hold his nose and admit it.Anyway, Da Zhou doesn't have the energy to argue with them at this moment, right?
Everyone feels that this plan is foolproof. What can the Governor of Beihai do? Beat us?Everyone was grinning.

At this time, someone rushed to report: "Dugu was defeated in the northwest and defeated 30 barbarian troops!"

With a "poof" sound, the local tycoons and Japanese military generals present wiped their faces together. Bragging has to be drafted, right?
"It's true!" The person who reported the news looked horrified. The court played a mirage in the square outside. Dugu Bai looked too fierce!
"And Dugu Bai is back home now, to visit relatives and supervise food!"

Naturally, everyone didn't believe it. Several big Northern Barbarian men also stood up at this time, with ferocious faces: "What did you say? Dugu defeated our 30 Northern Barbarian army?"

"Yes, King Ulei of the North Courtyard was killed on the spot." The person who reported the news said, and then his neck tightened and broke with a click.The man's head fell to the ground, with a look of horror on his face. He didn't even understand how he died.

"This is impossible!" A green-faced and fanged giant threw the body aside and said angrily, "The Beiyuan barbarians had so many warriors, how could they be easily defeated! How could 30 people be defeated by Zhou's weak army? Kill the Barbarian King? This is a scam and a collective humiliation to our barbarians!"

The Japanese military generals were all shocked. These barbarians were mercenaries led by local tycoons. Each of them was as strong as a mammoth, so they were called Mengrong.Not only is its body covered with a layer of long hair that is indestructible to swords, it is not afraid of severe cold, but it is also extremely powerful and can tear a black bear alive.The thick fangs that are more than two feet long protruding from their mouths are exactly their tribal characteristics.

"Let's go and have a look." The rich people were also interested.

At this time, Beihai City was immersed in an atmosphere of joy.The Great Zhou Dynasty won a great victory in the northwest, and their contribution to transporting grain and grass was also credited.They are very close to the Northern Barbarians here, and they will fight with the surrounding tribes from time to time, but fortunately they will not become the main attack target of the Northern Barbarians.Also because of the mediation of loose local policies, many poor tribes in the Northern Barbarians will accept their employment, and powerful tribes are also willing to accept protection fees and maintain the status quo, magically achieving the goal of using barbarians to control barbarians at a relatively low cost.But if the Great Zhou Dynasty were defeated and Beihai City was left alone, everything would definitely be lost.

The barbarians who are closer to the Zhou people here are also Mu Qiang. The barbarians who can accept the employment of the Zhou Dynasty do not care about seeing the Northern Barbarians defeated by the Zhou Dynasty and will only laugh at them.Anyway, they were not from the same tribe, and it was not their king who died.

Dugu Bai, who had an unobvious belly, was sitting calmly in the governor's office of Beihai, accepting the worship of the soldiers.The Hongmeng Wushen Qi wrapped around his body was so powerful that colorful auspicious clouds appeared at every turn, making the soldiers admire him endlessly.

The Governor of Beihai was very nervous about the food and fodder matter and asked for instructions: "General Dugu, I am incompetent. Look at this..."

"Yeah." Dugubei made a steady nasal noise, looked at his nose and nose, and said, "It's nothing."

It’s hard for the Governor of Beihai to ask, what exactly does “nothing” mean?Will you help us solve it?Or does the court have its own countermeasures?

The soldiers around him no longer cared about collecting grain and grass, and they all excitedly asked about the specific battle situation.

Fatty had already heard a lot of inside information from Lu Ziqing, and he was relatively familiar with Lu Zishu, so he could naturally tell many details that could not be seen in the mirage.Those parts he didn't know were either said to be confidential and couldn't be told; or he could use his imagination to make the story more exciting.

The old man of the Dugu family and all the elders were all smiling. Our ancestors have accumulated good deeds. Our ancestors have accumulated good deeds!Our Dugu family can finally become an upper-class family of Hongmeng Sect!
The fat man's expression was very calm, but in fact, no matter what he said, he had to think carefully. Don't you have to use your brain when making up a story?
In the eyes of the soldiers, this kind of appearance is called the style of a general.

Seeing that the fat man acted so calmly, Lu Ziqing felt relieved at the side.The Hongmeng Wu spirit that wrapped around Fatty was enough for him to show off. If he didn't fight with a real master, he wouldn't be able to show off his secrets. If others wanted to fight him, they must have the strength to break Hongtian's armor, right?Ordinary masters simply don't have this ability, and they can only feel awesome when they look at it. Who dares to challenge General Ci Zhi, Dugu Bei, who has made great achievements in battle?

Lu Ziqing stood up and said, "General, I'm going to take a look at the situation of food and grass."

The fat man kept a calm and serious expression: "I'll leave it all to you."

"The general has your order!" Lu Ziqing strode out of the hall, and a beam of fire shot into the sky.
