Seeing Zhou Shuyuan's slightly puzzled expression, Wei Zheng continued to analyze...

"I remember when we turned against the court before we turned against each other, even if we knew that the hearts of these officials, gentry, landlords were on the court, as long as they did not commit any trouble, we would have no choice. After all, there were too many people like Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, and it was impossible to secretly silence them all according to our old methods."

"Now, since we have turned against the court, we have no scruples..."

"My coach's idea is to take this opportunity to drive them all out of the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi."

"In this way, the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi will become more united. When we are fighting against the court, we do not need to worry about the rear or the logistics..."

Speaking of this, the murderous aura emitted from Wei Zheng's body had slowly dissipated. A sneered face flashed and was slowly covered by seriousness.

Under Zhou Shuyuan's gaze, he ordered with a majestic look on his face: "Military advisor, I will transfer the Tiger and Leopard Army Guards to you... In half a month, all civil and military officials with dissolute intentions in Shanxi and Shaanxi Provinces will be arrested. If there is any resistance, they will be eliminated directly on the spot."

"Since these civil and military officials miss the court so much, then we will give them to the court..."

"Apart from their family, they can't bring a single or two silver... they will expel them from the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi. Look at the court they were thinking about day and night, how will they arrange for them?"

"It's...the commander..." Zhou Shuyuan said loudly.

As the logistics manager of the Tiger and Leopard Army, when the Tiger and Leopard Army temporarily lost the income from glass, Zhou Shuyuan urgently needed a fortune to make up for these losses.

Although the property of dozens of civil and military officials is not much, no matter how little meat is, it is better than not.

Therefore, Zhou Shuyuan is more active in this matter than anyone else.

I wish I could send these civil and military officials out of the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces immediately, and then take their property for myself. I rushed into the Tiger and Leopard Army treasury and developed the Tiger and Leopard Army and the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces.

Just as Zhou Shuyuan's face was covered with a strong smile, he suddenly thought of the officials, gentry and businessmen in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi who were also planning to be ill-intentioned.

For those civil and military officials, the wealth owned by local officials and gentry and merchants can definitely be described in the four words "numbered". According to the idea of ​​the great commander in front of him, these civil and military officials were sent out of the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, and their wealth was collected in the treasury. Will the same method be used to treat those merchants and local officials and gentry who have made ill-thinking plans?

If the same method is used, how much income will be increased at one time by the Shanxi Governor’s Office?

Thinking of this, Zhou Shuyuan asked Wei Zheng with full expectations: "What about the local officials, gentry and merchants..."

"Would you like to expel them from the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces together..."

Wei Zheng shook his head and denied it without thinking: "They are different from those civil and military officials..."

Facing a hint of disappointment flashing quickly on Zhou Shuyuan's face, Wei Zheng explained: "For civil and military officials, as long as they train private soldiers, we can put on their heads with certain ill-thinking hats..."

"But, those local officials, gentry and merchants are different..."

"You know. What they did was just to hold private parties and did not commit crimes... More importantly, these officials, gentry, landlords and merchants were all people with great prestige in the local area. If we arrested them for no reason and drove them out of the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi, our Shanxi Governor's Office in the people will definitely be greatly reduced..."

Hearing this, Zhou Shuyuan asked with a reluctance, "Master. Could it be that we just watched these people act recklessly in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi without any solution?"

Wei Zheng shook his head and asked, "It depends on what conspiracy these people are planning?"

After a brief contemplation, Zhou Shuyuan replied thoughtfully: "Master, the lower official has some rumor here... If nothing unexpected happens, these people must be planning to raise the price of grain and salt..."

Hearing this answer, Wei Zheng's eyes quickly shot out two rays of light.

After taking a deep breath, he replied to Zhou Shuyuan: "If it is to raise the price of grain and salt, then the handsome man will have a way to make them lose all their money..."

"You call Mr. Zhou from the Foreign Trade Department right away... For these merchants who want to raise the price of grain and salt, Mr. Zhou is even more powerful than us. I believe that as long as we provide Mr. Zhou with enough food, Mr. Zhou will definitely have a way to make them lose all their money..."

Five days later, dozens of large and small grain stores in Datong City seemed to have been negotiated, and the price of grain increased from the original six taels of silver to eight taels of silver...

Faced with the dissatisfaction of ordinary people, these grain store owners directly gave a reason to figure it out.

Because the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi were blocked by the imperial court, grain from Jiangnan could not be transported in, and there was not much left in the grain store. In order to ensure the supply of grain, the grain store had to raise the grain price.

In addition, in order to ensure that everyone can buy food... everyone can only buy at most ten kilograms of food at a time.

Faced with this news, the people in Datong City immediately thought of the situation when Datong City was besieged by the Later Jin Tartars a year ago, the food prices continued to rise and they could not buy food.

In order not to let their families go hungry, the people gathered around the grain store directly ignored the rising grain prices and started buying.

However, this rush to buy did not last long, and major grain stores stopped selling grain on the grounds that the grain was exhausted.

The next day, although these grain stores were open as usual, the price of grain had risen to an astonishing ten taels of silver per pound.

Although the people in Datong City felt that the price of grain was a bit too high, after yesterday's looting, although they were full of complaints, they still took out silver at all costs and began to rush for grain that had already been inflated...

In the next few days, the price of grain was almost the same every day, and soon rose to an astonishing fifteen taels of silver per pound.

At this time, an order to stabilize the price of food suddenly came out of the Governor's Office.

In order to stabilize the grain price, the Governor's Office decided to sell grain to the people of Shandong and Shaanxi provinces at an unlimited amount of 10 taels of silver per dan...

Faced with the sudden killer move from the Governor's Office, the merchants who raised the food prices did not take it seriously.

In their opinion, the grain from the Governor's Office is used to supply millions of residents in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, and there is no excess grain sold to ordinary people. Even if there is, it is very rare.
