Heroes of the Invincible Knight Chapter 354

"Why don't you sell food with the door open!"

"Yes! Isn't this kidding us!"

In the past two days, the rice grain shops in the city did not close their doors as they did a few days ago. Instead, they all opened according to the instructions of the city lord's mansion. However, the nobles behind them did not supply a grain of grain to the rice grain shops. When the civilians who could not buy food saw the rice grain store open, they all gathered around to try to buy some food.

Although the grain yield is high in the river valley, it is densely populated and oppressed by the nobles. Many families have less than a week of food they have in their homes. They work in Bolai City on weekdays and exchange their wages for grain. Now Not to mention the soaring price of food, there is no market at all. If this continues, the poorest and most miserable people in the valley will start to starve.

And other wealthy families with a little bit of food stockpiled are also frightened. They are not much better than these commoners who urgently need to buy food. After a month or two, they will have to run out of food. The food on the black market has already been fired to sky-high prices. It's not that commoners like them can afford it, and they all own it now.

In the past two days, I saw various rice grain shops in the city open. I thought that there was no way out. These rice grain shops have finally returned to normal. There is no food at all. Some civilians who want to buy food are still unwilling to leave after learning that there is no food in the store, and still stay in place to argue with the people in the rice grain store.

"Why, this is Duke's store. When is it closed? Do I need to explain to you guys?"

The people in the store are not characters to be bullied. Most of the rice and grain store staff in the city are the dog-legs of the nobles of Burleigh City. When they went to the sky, when they heard that these civilians were dissatisfied, they immediately went back.

The surrounding civilians did not dare to refute any more. The Duke family was one of the eleven Bolai families. The family also raised hundreds of armored guards who could fight, and at least one of the thugs in the rice grain store was at least one. There are as many as 2,000 people. These people can't deal with the Hunter family's army, but the civilians who clean up some troubles can definitely be captured.

Unless the civilians of the entire Bolai City rebel, the rule of the eleven Bolai families can be overturned. But it is difficult for the commoners to unite together most of the time, just like there are so many people around the rice grain store today, but since the people in the rice grain store announced that there is no food for sale in the store, some are not very urgently needed. The people who had food to live on left.

Now that the steward of the Duke family roared, and the number of people was reduced by nearly half, in this city of Burleigh, which commoner who ate a bear's heart and a leopard's gall would dare to provoke the Duke family.

It is difficult for these commoners to unite when facing the nobles. Each has their own interests and demands. The speed of joining together is slow, and it is easy to be divided and disintegrated by the nobles, and even collapse within themselves.

"Sir, you can see that the people here have no surplus food, and the number of people is much less than before. If you order a high price, let us buy some food."

"That won't work! How can we set a high price! We can't afford it if the price is too high!"

"That's right, if we had the money, we would go to the black market to buy it. Why are we still hanging around here?"

"It's good if your lord is willing to sell it to us. Do you still think it's too expensive?"

"You can afford it, we can't afford it!"

"Hmph, there's no food in the rice grain store today, no matter who comes, even if you go out to a Jinnar, you won't be able to get it in this store."

It would be an exaggeration to say that Jinnar is a bit exaggerated. Don't look at Richard's casually squandering more than six figures of Jinnar, but Jinnar's purchasing power is still very strong. Most civilians have never contacted Jinnar in their lives. Gnar's concept only stays on very valuable and very valuable.

"There is no grain in this rice grain store. There should be grain in the granary in the city."

"That's right, our river valley has had good weather over the years, and the granary should have been full of grain long ago."

"Would you like to take a look first? Maybe there is grain in the granary."

"Let's go, let's go and have a look."

The crowd changed direction again and headed for the granary in the city. People's herd mentality is very strong, coupled with the guidance of caring people, the people who were waiting in front of the various rice grain stores all joined the group, and after a while, thousands of people gathered together. The food supply time is short, and there is no widespread famine. If it is another week or two, this number will probably double again.

A big city like Bolai City should have a large official granary according to the rules, which reserves the city's spare grain. This grain storage rule is very useful at critical times, and the commoners will look at the tall and towering granary. There is a certain sense of security.

The City Lord's Mansion was not far from the granary. These people could not find food in the rice grain store, and they did not dare to go to the nobles' castle to make trouble. Instead, they thought of the official granary in Bolai City.

The granary in Bolai City is tall and strong, but there is not much food in it. It is not empty enough to run away from the mice. It is also thanks to Sol's previous rectification. Otherwise, this official warehouse in Bolai City will have a grain of grain. nothing.

It is a pity that the influence of the nobles in the Valley is too great. As soon as Sol left, they were exposed. Dane could only guarantee the army of the River Valley Legion. The rest can only be said to be powerless. The city's official warehouse is almost empty again.

City Lord's Mansion

Morrell was sitting in the chamber with Dane and a few other officials who were ready to take part.

"It's already afternoon. How did the families in the city react?"

"It's still just opening a rice grain store but not delivering food, and it's still raising the price of living materials."

"Haha, these people really don't cry without seeing the coffin."

Moriel's tone was a little disdainful, and the people on the field also looked like they didn't care much. In terms of economic warfare, they were at a disadvantage, maybe they could not be said to be disadvantaged, they were completely defeated, but in this battlefield they They don't care about winning or losing at all, except in the complex modern society, how can a person holding a knife handle lose to a group of businessmen.

How happy the aristocratic businessmen of these river valleys are now, how hard they will be with their swords in the future.

"Everyone, get ready. As soon as the sun goes down, General Dane will lead his people into action. With the Dragon Army and the River Valley Army, they will attack all the noble castles in Bolai City that do not cooperate with the orders of the City Lord's Mansion!"

"Yes, my lord!"

This time, the Long Jun came to prepare for the battle. He brought a lot of siege equipment, and the River Valley Legion was also equipped. It couldn't be easier to knock down the small castles of these nobles.

"Lord Moriel! A crowd is gathering towards the City Lord's Mansion!"

Just as everyone was preparing to go down and arrange the action after sunset, a soldier hurried in and reported to Moriel.

"Are the nobles in Bolai City broken?"

This is the first thought of everyone present. There is a flag regiment of 5,000 professional soldiers stationed in this city lord's mansion. There are four giant dragons lying on the ground in the yard, and there are tens of thousands of troops scattered around. Where does this group of people come from? Thousands of people wanted to attack the City Lord's Mansion.

"Who's here?"

It was Moriel who reacted first. The thousands of people who came here would definitely not be the armies of each family. If they had the courage, they would have resisted from the beginning. Now the Dragon Army and Dane's River Valley Army have taken the army inside and outside the city. All the key nodes are firmly under control, and as long as they are not a group of congenital mental retardation, they will not hit the muzzle like this.

"It's all civilians in the river valley, and their target should be the granary next to the city lord's mansion."

"Hey, what's the use of that little grain in the granary?"

"It is impossible to put grain from the granary if it can be used at the top."

"General Dane!"

"exist!"

"Go and find out, who tricked these civilians to come to the granary."

"Yes, Lord Moriel!"

This kind of thing doesn't even need to be guessed. These civilians are instigated by others. If no one has a rhythm, how can they gather to create trouble for the City Lord's Mansion. Moriel immediately ordered Dane, who was most familiar with the various forces in the river valley, to investigate the matter. Dane did not shirk, and immediately agreed. Obviously, he was very confident in finding out the leader of this incident.

When Moriel gave the order to Dane, her whole face was like frost. Moriel was obviously a little angry. The operation of this group of people was not a threat to her, but it was really disgusting to her.

"Then, Lord Moriel, what about those civilians?"

"Let Long Jun be on guard and send someone to persuade them to leave. If anyone doesn't listen to the persuasion and wants to attack the line of defense, kill them on the spot!"

"Yes, my lord!"

None of the people present felt that there was any problem with Moriel's order. Although these civilians were also pitiful people who were used by others, being pitiful was not the reason for them to storm the granary. Everyone should pay for their actions.

Vicomte de Andel

The representatives of the nobles of Bolai City are still sitting in the council room of Ander's house to discuss the matter of unified action.

"Hahahaha, today thousands of pariahs did not buy food from the rice grain store, but went to the granary of the City Lord's Mansion to ask for food."

"Hey, what's the result?"

"What else? According to the news just now, the Hunter family's army dispersed the untouchables after killing and wounding dozens of people."

"Damn, these pariahs are really useless."

"No, no, it's still useful. At least it put pressure on the Hunter family invisibly, telling them that this little mess will turn into a big mess sooner or later."

"That's right, Viscount Duke is still very powerful. Just a provocation will lead the group of pariahs there."

"It's not that we are powerful. Who would have known that this group of pariahs could be so stupid that they dared to attack the defense line of Hunter's house."

"Hahaha, if they can overwhelm the Hunter family's defenses, then we have to worry."

Most of the people present didn't take this incident as a very important event, it was just a joke, and only dozens of people were killed and injured.

Only Los Ander, who was sitting on the side, twitched his eyes and touched his forehead unnaturally. If he looked carefully, he could even find a trace of sweat. After being pointed out by his old father, Viscount Ander, that night, Rose was very concerned about this. The so-called action meeting is a little distracted.

He has been in the state of paddling and doing his own calculations, but today's events are still shocking. Except for some cold sweats, he can not help but provoked civilians to attack the city lord's mansion. This is not to put pressure on the Hunter family, it is completely aimed at Those who angered the other party went, and Zuo was killed with one hand, and most people didn't know it.

"Lord Rose? What's the matter with you?"

Loss' unnatural appearance was still discovered by others, and now Loss was so frightened that his face was pale, and it seemed to people that he was unwell.

"It's okay, let's discuss today's affairs here."

"Tonight is the time for the ultimatum issued by the Hunter family. Will we stop discussing it?"

"There's nothing to discuss, you see, the Hunter family is in a hurry by these bastards. What is the ultimatum? I guess they have to come to us to negotiate tomorrow."

"Well, the plan is all set, everyone can go back and act, let's go."

At Ross's insistence, this would be considered an early break up, and when everyone left, they were still talking about what the Duke family had done.

"There are only a few thousand people who went there today. If it's another two weeks, our families will say that the food is in the City Lord's Mansion, and tens of thousands of people will be invited to see what his Hunter family will do."

"Hahaha, great way!"

Andel's Garden

"Stupid stuff the Dukes did."

Ross conveyed what happened just now to the old man, Viscount Andre, who had retreated behind the scenes. The old man also made a very simple and clear evaluation of this matter.

"After tonight, I'm afraid there will be no Duke family, and I don't know how many of the twelve Bolai families will be left tomorrow."

"In any case, our Ander family will stand tall."

"There is no family that stands still. I only hope that while I am alive, I don't see the Ander family perish."

"Okay~www.mtlnovel.com~ Don't worry about other people, don't hide anymore, just transport grain to the rice grain store, our Ander's rice grain store immediately sells grain to the civilians in the city at a fair price. ."

"Yes, Father, I will arrange it immediately."

"Come on, the Duke family's behavior is probably angering the Hunter family. I'm afraid it will be too late."

Ross walked quickly to the hall to gather the stewards and made arrangements. All the stewards were extremely puzzled. But Ross's prestige as the heir to the title is still very high, and these stewards quickly went everywhere to bring orders with confusion.

"Hurry up, several rice grain stores in Ander's family are selling grain!"

The cheap food from Ander's family quickly caused a looting. Fortunately, they had already anticipated it and arranged manpower in advance to maintain order.

"The grain store of Menji's family also has grain, but it is more expensive than the one sold by Ander's family. Would you like to line up here?"

"The grain store of Lu Yin's family has also started selling grain!"

The civilians who bought grain suddenly became elated. As the sun went down, they who had given up hope suddenly heard a series of good news in succession. It seemed that as the sun went down today, the city of Burleigh would not be short of food. .

"What's going on! What are the Ander family doing! And the Lu Yin family and the Menji family, why are they selling food without permission!"

Duke's family, Viscount Duke, who was still in the castle for today's operation, suddenly received a piece of bad news. Three of the Burley Eleven families did not keep their promise and started before the last time agreed by the Hunter family. The food was sold, much to his chagrin.

Viscount Duke strode out of the room and wanted to send someone to question him, but unexpectedly saw the guard outside the castle looking panicked.

"Giant, giant dragon!"
