A little makes a lot, and sand makes a tower.
According to Mr. Xu's calculations, these people secretly trade at least two hundred thousand catties every day.
Under such a purchase volume, the rice supply in Jiangling City is still maintained at a normal level. The saying that there is sufficient rice in this Jiangnan land really impresses Mr. Xu.
Unfortunately, Mr. Xu still has no way of knowing when these people started making acquisitions on such a scale.
However, after discovering these people's behind-the-scenes operations, Mr. Xu had already followed the clues and found the place where these people stored food.
Next, as long as you follow this batch of rice grains, it will not be difficult to find the target person hiding behind the scenes and quietly buying grains.
But before tracking down the target person behind this batch of rice grain, Mr. Xu must first settle down his family. Now, Fu Bao discovered something unusual about the Great Buddha Temple, which gave Mr. Xu a reason to leave Jiangling City as soon as possible.
As for whether to continue going eastward along the Yangtze River or to turn around, if Mr. Xu had any hesitation before, then he no longer has any hesitation.
"You're back now?"
The next day, when she heard that Mr. Xu planned to return to Anshun County the day after tomorrow, Princess Yuyan was the first to feel unhappy.
However, Mr. Xu obviously didn't want to talk nonsense with Princess Yuyan. He looked at her directly and said, "If you still want to continue going east, I have no objection!"
"Brother, look what you said, I don't want to!"
Princess Yuyan quickly expressed her stance.
Complain, complain, let her take the people east, Princess Yuyan really has no idea. Mainly because when she came out this time, she had too many little dolls with her.
Moreover, the most important thing is that each of these little dolls will only stay quiet when they are with Fu Bao.
Princess Yuyan didn't know why, but she knew that without Fu Bao appearing from time to time, she would never be able to take good care of these little babies.
If she couldn't take care of these little babies, given her mother's temper, she might send someone to deal with her. After all, in her mother's heart, she was just a female guard named Yingxue.
Now that I have decided to return to Anshun County, I naturally want to buy more local products from Jiangling City. Otherwise, it would be a bit embarrassing to go back to the village and meet the people in the village without even a gift.
In view of the weirdness of Jiangling City, Mr. Xu did not ask Mrs. Xu and the others to go out to buy souvenirs. Instead, he asked Lin Dong, the county magistrate of Jiangling City, and entrusted him to help prepare some souvenirs.
Lin Dong, as the county magistrate of Jiangling City, has been an official in Jiangling City for three years. He naturally knows what good things and specialties Jiangling City has.
"Madam, I will trouble you about this matter!"
After Lin Dong agreed to Mr. Xu's request, he handed over the purchasing task to his daughter-in-law, Shen.
Naturally, it was impossible for Shen to refuse.
And when Mrs. Shen took the people around him to the streets to buy various Jiangling local products, Lin Dong was having a secret meeting with a special visitor.
"Holy Son, then Marquis Wu Cheng has decided to return to Anshun County the day after tomorrow. Do you really don't need his subordinates to lead people to keep them?"
At this moment, the county magistrate Lin Dong, who was high in Jiangling City, was standing very humbly in front of a middle-aged scholar, and this middle-aged scholar was apparently a disciple accepted by Master Jie Luck Taoist.
"unnecessary!"
"Besides, you can't keep him!"
Zhang Yi looked at Lin Dong indifferently, "You only need to do one thing now, and that is to buy grain. When Wu Chenghou leaves Jiangling City, he will immediately send people to send rice grain to the southwest. This is related to my luck. Can we establish a ** country?”
"My subordinate understands!"
Lin Dong responded quickly.
Who would have thought that Lin Dong, the dignitary of the county, the son-in-law of the Shen family in Changshan, and a promising person, would actually be a disciple of Jie Luck Dao, and when people all over the world were shouting and killing against Jie Luck Dao, Lin Dong He still has no change in his focus on the path of calamity. He is simply a fanatical believer.
"I have some things to go to the capital. I will leave it to you to handle matters here. Don't make any mistakes, otherwise, no one can protect you!"
"Please rest assured, Holy Son."
Lin Dong bowed again and replied with great respect.
In this Jiangling City, Lin Dong is the well-deserved local emperor. Because he had the Changshan Shen family as his back, even the prefect of Jiangzhou Prefecture had to give him some face.
As for Mr. Xu being Marquis Wu Cheng, Lin Dong was actually not too afraid. In his opinion, Mr. Xu is indeed very strong, but no matter how strong a person is, he is just one person. He has raised thousands of dead soldiers in Jiangling City. The real dead soldiers are the kind who are not afraid of death.
Zhang Yi nodded with satisfaction.
Zhang Yi had no doubts about the loyalty of the disciples of Jie Luck Dao who could still stick to their true intentions even when Jie Luck Dao had turned into a street rat under the decree of the imperial court and everyone was shouting for beatings.
Speaking of which, the reason why the Tribulation of Luck Dao is so difficult to eradicate is not only because it is very useful to those high-ranking officials, but more importantly, although the Tribulation of Luck Dao is a sect, it has two inheritance lines, light and dark.
For example, Lin Dong is a disciple of the Tao of Jie Luck behind the scenes.
Most of the Jie Luck Dao disciples who betrayed the Jie Luck Dao master before were disciples on the bright line.
When it comes to loyalty, the Jie Luck Dao disciples on the dark line are obviously superior to those on the bright line.
…
Zhang Yi did not stay in Jiangling City for long. He was separated from the Taoist Master Jie Luck this time, but he was preparing to go to the capital to see if he could find the saint Du Qingruo who had lost contact.
After taking Zhang Yi as his disciple, Master Jie Yun Tao traveled around the world, and finally went to the southwest of the Tang Dynasty, where he was already preparing to meet the Taoist country where Jie Yun Tao was in the human world.
This is undoubtedly an act that resembles rebellion.
As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first.
During this period, Jie Luck Dao took the initiative to use the disciples of Jie Luck Dao's secret line to hoard food and grass in secret. As long as there was enough food and grass, he could easily gain the loyalty of the leaders of the tribes in the southwest of the Tang Dynasty.
This kind of loyalty gained through bribery is not very loyal.
But the Taoist Lord Jie Luck is not a fool, he just wants to establish the Tao Kingdom. Then, there are ways to control the morale of the people and the military. As long as the hearts of the people and the military are in hand, this so-called leader of the southwestern tribes is destined to become a thing of the past.
All plans have been carried out in an orderly manner, and before the Tao Kingdom is finally established, the Master of Luck Taoism must find the former saint Du Qingruo and make Du Qingruo his queen.
It's not that Master Ji Luck doesn't want to be the master of this country, but that he doesn't have Dragon Luck.
Without Long Yun, even if you become the leader of the Tao Kingdom, you will eventually lose the power in your hands. As a descendant of the previous royal family, Du Qingruo does have remnants of dragon luck in his body.
Although there is only a thin remnant of Dragon Luck, it is enough to secure the position of Queen of the Dao Kingdom. (End of chapter)
