On the main street of Xinzheng City, a long-uninhabited mansion was renovated and glowed again.

Under the eaves above the main entrance, in the space that had been empty for a long time, a large plaque was once again hung, with the three characters "Sili Mansion" written on it.

After the Ninth Young Master Han Fei glanced at the plaque, a smile appeared on his lips, and then he stepped into the door. Under the guidance of the servant, he came to a spacious hall.

Looking at the white-haired young man in green brocade official uniform in front of him, Han Fei raised his hand to touch his chin, looked up and down, and said with a smile: "Brother Wei Zhuang, this official uniform looks quite good on you.

Because it’s appropriate.”

When Wei Zhuang heard this, he glanced at the other party and said calmly: "I have no interest in the power game in the court. The reason why I took over the position of Secretary is just to contain Ye Mu."

Han Fei stepped forward and said: "Although Sili is not as prominent as the Three Gongs and Nine Ministers, he is still an important part of maintaining the balance between military and government.

Not only is he in charge of many slaves and criminals, but he also has the power to supervise the defense of the capital and the mobilization of troops. It is definitely an important position to control Ji Wuye.

It was not easy for me to win this official position and break a gap in the night. How I will seize military power from those guys next depends on Brother Wei Zhuang."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder.

Since the death of the Blood-clothed Marquis, the military power that had been firmly controlled by him has been left vacant. Ji Wuye, the Fourth Young Master Han Yu and other ambitious people in the court are all eyeing this big piece of fat.

If you can take over the control of troops and horses, you will be qualified to compete head-on with Ye Mu.

Hearing this, Wei Zhuang snorted rather coldly, blocked the former's arm, and continued: "Now that the most powerful Xueyi Hou among the four vicious generals in the night is gone, your next plan is

What?"

Hearing the question, Han Fei also became serious and said: "Among the four vicious generals, Chao Banshee is the one who sleeps with the king and cannot be easily touched, so he can only try to figure it out slowly.

The identity of the coir raincoat guest is too mysterious, and no clues about him have been found yet, so the next target can only be on the big tiger.

"Emerald Tiger?"

Wei Zhuang's expression moved slightly.

Han Fei nodded and said: "Finance, military, politics, and espionage are what Ye Mu relies on. Now that without the Bloody Marquis, their control over the army has been greatly weakened.

If we can bring down the Emerald Tiger, then the whole night will lose the two pillars of the army and money, and it will be like a toothless beast. It will be much easier to defeat it then."

Wei Zhuang heard this and said: "Emerald Tiger has almost monopolized most of South Korea's hugely profitable industries. It will not be easy to defeat it."

"Losing the Bloody Marquis, Nightfall is like breaking an arm. It's the time when you need to regain your strength. Ji Wuye will never be able to calm down, and the best way to make up for the losses is to plunder property.

As long as they make a move, we will have a chance to strike first!"

As he spoke, Han Fei's eyes flashed with confidence...

Half a month passed by in a flash. Food prices in Xinzheng and many other places suddenly skyrocketed, causing many people to panic buying. Tens of thousands of poor people could not afford to eat and had to rely on grass roots and tree bark to survive.

In the courtyard of Yangzhai City, Ye Zhang was working on making Ruhua No. 004, and at this moment Black and White Xuanjian climbed over the wall and came to the former's side.

He said with a serious face: "What you predicted before was indeed correct. However, in just a few days, food prices in more than a dozen cities in South Korea have soared. In some places, they have even been more than ten times higher than the original price.

.”

Hearing this, the snow girl on the side also showed surprise. She had heard the news about rising food prices before, but she didn't expect it to be so terrifying. It would not give the people a way to survive at all.

Ye Zhang raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "It is impossible for food prices to rise so much for no reason. Someone must be secretly controlling it."

Xuan Jian nodded and said: "To control food prices on such a large scale requires huge financial resources. In South Korea, apart from the royal family, only Ye Mu has this ability, and the initiator should be Ye Mu's Jade Tiger."

The snow girl snorted coldly: "Sir, this guy is so bad, I must punish him severely!"

As she spoke, she clenched her fists and her face was full of anger. She had been wandering and living the life of the lowest class since she was a child, and she was very aware of the hardships of the poor.

Ye Zhang rubbed the other person's little head and chuckled: "Don't worry, this guy won't have a good life in a few days."

Then he ordered Xuan Jian: "Go to Zhao State in person and transport a batch of grain."

"How many?"

Xuan Jian asked.

Ye Zhang smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and said: "Fifty thousand dendrobium."

Black and white Xuanjian didn't say much, said hello to his wife and left the place.

Soon, more than ten days have passed, and food prices in South Korea remain high. If they continue like this within half a month, hundreds of thousands of people will face the disaster of running out of food.

And at this critical moment, Xuan Jian finally came back.

Looking at the mountains of grain, Ye Zhang nodded with satisfaction, and then asked: "How high has the price of grain increased now?"

"In many places, one dendrobium can cost more than two gold."

Xuanjian replied.

Ye Zhangwen smacked his lips. You must know that according to the normal price, the normal price of a handful of grain is about one hundred baht, but now it is twenty times that. It is simply terrifying.

Then he said: "First take out 10,000 dendrobium and put it on the market, and the price will be set at one gold."

Black and white Xuanjian responded and then went to do some work.

However, within a few days, the 10,000 dendrobium grains were purchased by people sent by the Emerald Tiger. They did not fall into the hands of the people at all, and the price of grains remained high.

"As for hoarding goods, it depends on how big your appetite is."

Ye Zhang chuckled lightly, and then asked Xuan Jian to throw out 40,000 hu of dendrobium again.

As expected, it didn't take long for these grains to be purchased again at night at a high price.

Seeing this situation, Ye Zhan was not anxious at all, and immediately opened the granary and released a full 100,000 hu of dendrobium at once, which had a strong impact on the market.

When the Emerald Tiger learned about this, he was so angry that he broke the cup in his hand, but now he was unwilling to admit defeat, so he had to grit his teeth and accept the food again.

He doesn't believe there is anyone richer than Ye Mu in South Korea.

Ye Zhang smiled slightly, and then threw out two hundred thousand dendrobium again without hesitation. He wanted to see why the other party used all his wealth to challenge his pocket money.
