Because the situation was urgent, there was not much time left for them to talk. Wei Junmo left Lingzhou City alone half an hour later, leaving Lin Changfeng and Zixiao Palace all the staff to Nangong Mo. Lin Changfeng went out to find out the news, Nangong Mo put on a men's outfit and took the dangerous place downstairs and sat in the lobby of the inn to listen to people chatting.

Because of the sudden rebellion, there were not a few people stranded in Lingzhou City. Most of them were merchants from all over the world. When they passed by Lingzhou, they happened to meet General Wude of Lingzhou blocking the entire Lingzhou. The people who were stranded for more than two months have been stuck in the nearest. So everyone was a little anxious, but when they saw the soldiers holding soldiers on the city tower on the street, no one dared to do anything. After all, they were just ordinary merchants, and no matter how powerful they were, they could not fight with those who held weapons. In order to surrender ten times with one force, Lingzhou City at this time, nothing was useful except force.

The two of them sat in the corner of the inn and did not attract any attention. These days, they were forced to huddle in this inn and even went to the streets, so naturally no one had the leisure to make friends with strangers. At most, they were just curious that there were still people running to Lingzhou City at this time.

"What's this? Who did we offend business in a dedicated manner? It would be fine if those people couldn't survive and killed those corrupt officials. Now they looked like they were reluctant to stop working." Someone from a distance next to them couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

The person at the deskmate sighed and said, "What can't be done? That general Wude...hehe..."

"Oh? Brother Zhuo knows that General Wude? Didn't he say that General Wude is a refugee from the place with the worst disaster downstream? He really couldn't survive and then took his people to rob the granary of the government?"

The man sneered, looked around and lowered his voice and said, "Refugee? I am not familiar with that person, but I have seen him once. It is indeed a mess in his hometown, but he hasn't been able to survive. Have you ever seen a person who runs seven or eight escort agencies unable to survive because of a flood?"

"Escort agency?"

"That's right, I've met that general Wude once. He was the chief escort of the Hongyuan Escort Agency in Lingzhou. Our family once asked them to take escorts."

The man also remembered and said, "Hongyuan Escort Agency? That's indeed... The Hongyuan Escort Agency has eight branches in Jiangnan. This time, only one or two were washed away by the flood..." What's more, what big losses can the escort agency cause? The goods are all from others, and the escort fee is paid half of the escort fee in advance. In addition, even if this kind of natural disaster is lost, the escort agency does not need to compensate. Even if it is really necessary to compensate, who has time to find him now?

"This is really...why is this?" the man sighed. No matter why this General Wude was, the unlucky ones were all unrelated people.

"What else can it be for? How do you say that... Is there a king, prince, general, and minister?" His Majesty now has gone from a poor village man who can't even afford to eat to a founding king, and naturally gave many imaginations, whether it is a hero or a madman. I just don't know what kind of general Wude is here.

Speaking of this, the two looked at each other and shook their heads and stopped talking about this topic. It would be amazing to be heard.

These two people didn't know that although their voices were extremely low, the two people sitting not far away could hear clearly.

Nangong Mo played with the tea cup in his hand, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

Is it better to have kings, princes, generals and ministers? This is true, but if everyone thinks so, can there be a time for peace in the world? Today you raise an army and tomorrow I will rebel. What is fulfilled is the ambition of these ambitious heroes, but what is really suffering is the irrelevant ordinary people.

Standing up, Nangong Mo said in a deep voice: "Danger, let's go."

"Yes, young master." Wei hugged the sword and stood up, followed respectfully behind Nangong Mo, and the master and servant left the inn one by one.

The atmosphere on the street outside was not good, and soldiers holding weapons were patrolling back and forth. Although Lingzhou is a big city, there were not many people on the street. Passers-by were in a hurry when they walked by, and many looked hungry. Wei also put away his long sword, which had always been gone, and followed Nangong Mo and whispered: "Although there is no restriction on entry and exit in Lingzhou, the entire Lingzhou is allowed to enter and not leave, so many people stranded in Lingzhou remained in the city. Lingzhou had just suffered a flood, and the food in the city could not be supported. General Wude also collected a large amount of food in the city as military rations. Therefore, many people in the city were already hungry."

Nangong Mo frowned and said, "What about the inn?" They lived in the inn and did not seem to feel the problem of food shortage. No matter what dish they wanted, the shopkeeper was very happy.

Wei said: "Now the inn is under the control of General Wude, and the price of inn food is ten times the same as before." People who can afford to live in such inns are naturally not short of money. Even if the price increases ten times, they still have to eat it. Otherwise, what can they do? You can't starve yourself to death, right?

Nangong Mo nodded, and understood General Wude's approach. He just used a different method to exploit the money of these merchants stranded in Lingzhou, and then bought grain from other places and sold it to them at a high price, or even to the people of Lingzhou. I am afraid that the price of grain in Lingzhou has increased by more than ten times during this period.

Although General Wude was indeed suspicious in a short period of time, the economy of Lingzhou would collapse soon... When the people really couldn't survive, they would not care whether you were a court army or a rebel who raised an army.

"This idiot."

Wei looked at the little boy in front of him calmly, waiting for her instructions. He was taciturn by nature and was not a person who was good at scheming, so these problems were not something he needed to think about. He just needed the wife to give orders and he could execute them.

Nangong Mo thought for a while and said, "Go to meet this General Wude."

"Young Master?" Wei frowned and said a little disagreeing. They didn't know about this general Wude. Although it was not a fear of just a small head, no one knew if there was someone behind him. Nangong Mo said calmly: "Don't worry, even if there is someone behind him, I can probably guess who it is. If it was him, he wouldn't know that we were in Lingzhou, and it would be no different if we didn't meet."

"Yes, young master." After hearing what she said, Wei no longer objected and nodded, "Go and arrange it."
