This is not nonsense!

Of course he knows how to find grain seeds!

But this man didn't let him find his father, and he didn't care. The county magistrates in other places knew Ren Zilin as a nobody, so how could he find the grain seeds

He is a good young man, why does he come to this remote place to be a poor county magistrate? Who is he doing this for

Although he was angry, Ren Zilin thought about it and quickly wrote a letter back to Beijing to find out how much grain seeds each county had replaced this year, and to see which counties could use their connections to get some of them to allocate.

Then he thought of Wei Feng who was far away in Zhao State. He immediately wrote another letter and found Songbai, asking him to pass the letter to Wei Feng to see if he could get 10,000 or 20,000 kilograms of grain seeds back from Zhao State.

And Jin and Yan! He wrote two more letters and asked people to pass them to the people there, asking them to do everything they can to get him some grain seeds.

Only after doing all this did he breathe a sigh of relief.

But before he could relax, the county magistrate knocked on the door and walked in with a flattering smile: "Mr. County Magistrate, I wonder how much grain we have in Futai County for the people to exchange this year? There are rumors on the street that a merchant came back from the capital and saw the notice posted by the Ministry of Revenue. He found that our Futai County did not exchange grain for Zhao this year, but other counties did. Many people came to ask, this can't be true, right?"

Ren Zilin's expression changed: "It spread so quickly?"

The county magistrate's face changed when he heard this, and then he became anxious: "Sir, this can't be true? This could cost lives!"

Ren Zilin pinched his brows and said, "I'll find a way to deal with this matter. You go out first!"

The county magistrate went out with a worried look on his face, but after he went out, his worried expression disappeared in an instant.

He left the county government office and left in a carriage.

Haha, the new county magistrate has caused such a big mess, but he can immediately benefit the people by saving oil lamps and get great merit!

He had a feeling that it would not be long before he would be promoted and would not have to be suppressed all the time.

He was really fed up with this frustrated county magistrate!

After the county magistrate left, Ren Zilin looked at Chu Tiankuo and said, "Could it be that the people of Futai County all know about this?"

Chu Tiankuo didn't say anything.

If Prime Minister Liang doesn't take action, it's fine. But when he does, it's swift, accurate and ruthless. He doesn't give anyone a chance to react, and he doesn't leave any clues!

Back then, my maternal grandfather's family was wiped out overnight, my mother was banished to the cold palace, and my imperial sister was forced to marry. How could each of these events not be swift, cruel and accurate

Now it is estimated that only the people in the city know about it, but before tomorrow, the people of the entire Futai County will know about it.

By then, there will definitely be people coming to make trouble.

Ren Zilin was afraid when he saw that he didn't speak, so he stood up hastily and said, "I'm going to go outside and see who the hell is spreading rumors."

Xingnong was walking on the streets of the county town and heard many people talking about the exchange of grain seeds. She knew from the original owner's memory that this was indeed the case, but each household in Zhao State could only get one kilogram of high-yield grain.

A pound of wheat seeds is not enough to plant one acre of land, so it is not very useful, but this is the hope of all the people.

Xingnong went to the study first.

An hour later, she took the ten-liang deposit and went to the grain shop to buy grain seeds.

Before she reached the grain store, she saw many people queuing up to buy wheat seeds.

The people in the queue were talking about it: "Boss, isn't this wheat seed 20 cents a pound? How come it has become 25 cents a pound?"

"Yes, I bought it yesterday and it was also 20 cents per pound."

... ..

"The price has increased today. Will you buy it? If not, it may be more expensive tomorrow! Don't blame me for not reminding you." The grain shop owner replied loudly.

What a joke! There was a rumor this morning that the magistrate of Futai County did not exchange the high-yield grain seeds from Zhao State for the people this year. Why didn't he take the opportunity to raise the price and make a fortune

Although it was not known whether this was true or not, as more and more people came to buy grain seeds, he decisively raised the price.

Every extra day's worth of money you can earn is a day's worth of money.

Ren Zilin and Chu Tiankuo were walking on the street when they came here. They were furious when they heard these words. "Black-hearted profiteers! I will issue an official document immediately to prohibit the price gouging of grain seeds!"

During his inspection, Ren Zilin discovered that many shops selling grain seeds had raised the prices of grain seeds!

Chu Tiankuo didn't say anything. Merchants value profit more than anything else, and there was no law prohibiting price increases. This was inevitable.

He looked around and saw a familiar little figure, so he walked over.

Ren Zilin also saw it, and he followed and said, "Junior Sister, you know about this too?"

Could it be that this matter spread to the village below so quickly

Xing Nong was confused: "Know what?"

Ren Zilin asked, "Aren't you here to buy grain seeds?"

Xing Nong nodded: "Yeah."

"Then you know it. Otherwise, why are you in such a hurry to buy grain seeds?" Ren Zilin was a little annoyed. The Liang family's evil hands were really spread throughout every corner of the Chu State!

Xing Nong: "..."

Why is she in a hurry

Chu Tiankuo said, "Let's find a place to talk."

So the three of them went to the reception building.

At this time, a carriage stopped at the restaurant opposite the reception building, and Shen Hanyu got off the carriage.

Shen Nan, who was driving, stared at the reception building opposite.

Shen Dong couldn't help but ask: "What are you looking at?"

Shen Nan did not reply to him, and said to Shen Hanyu who had just got off the carriage: "Master, Miss Shen."

Miss Shen was actually walking with those two people, and she looked familiar with them.

Those two are the people the master hates the most!

Upon hearing this, Shen Hanyu turned around and saw three people entering the reception building together.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes.

Chu Tiankuo and Ren Zilin actually protected her in the middle. What was going on

Shen Dong's eyes widened when he heard this: "Miss Shen is the woman who made you sign that unequal cooperation document?"

Isn't one of the two people around her the boss behind the Yingbin Building

The young master opened the restaurant to compete with the Yingbin Building.

Could it be that the girl was a spy sent from the Yingbin Building

Shen Dong looked at Shen Hanyu anxiously: "Yingbinlou is really good at scheming. Knowing that we opened a restaurant here, they immediately sent a cook over and cheated us of half of the bonus. Master, that Miss Shen must not be trusted! She must be a nail sent by Chu Tiankuo. We can't use her dishes!"

"I know my limits. When will the cook arrive?" Shen Hanyu retracted his gaze, gently waved his folding fan, and walked into the reception building.

Shen Nan: "It will take another half a month to arrive."

Shen Dong glared at his brother!

It’s all his fault for not stopping it at that time!

"ASAP!"

There are four private rooms on the top floor of the reception building.

One room is exclusively for Chu Tiankuo, one room is exclusively for Ren Zilin, and the remaining two are for external guests.

After Xing Nong entered the private room, Chu Tiankuo stopped Ren Zilin who wanted to follow him in and said, "Didn't the Lord say that he would issue an official document to prohibit merchants from raising the price of grain seeds? Go ahead!"

Ren Zilin: "No rush. This can be done later."

He always felt that what the two had to say was very important!

Chu Tiankuo looked at him and said calmly: "Now."

Ren Zilin: “…”

Ren Zilin walked away muttering, "Too bad! I'm going to tell that woman Zhang Ruohua that you were having a tryst with another woman here! I'm going to ask my sister to stop stopping that witch from looking for you! I'm also going to tell Zishan that you're here..."
