The female emperor fights, captures Yang Yuhuan at the beginning

"Originally, she lived in a corner, and I thought she would live well. I didn't expect the situation to be so tense now. Once she is targeted, her personality will not end well. Brother Lang, I will try to persuade her. I don't know if it can be done, but if there is no other way, you have to find a way to tie her to me, besides you, I miss her most in my heart."

Zhou Yao, who was beside Qin Lang's landlord, assured her, "Don't worry, if you say you can't pay, I'll send someone to invite her over."

"Well, it's still a little villain who hurts people, my sister has a good rest..."

Without waiting for Qin Lang's reaction, Zhou Yao turned and rode up in the water. Just like her name, she really started to shake.

Back in Xianyang City, for several days in a row, Qin Lang was with the female relatives around him, taking care of everyone's emotions, and naturally they would be exposed to both rain and dew.

It's a happy life, after all, there is no imminent problem for Qin Lang to solve.

There are a few main things at the moment, one is to stabilize the dominance and rapid development of Qin Wuzhou.

The second is to vigorously support the shipbuilding industry of Luoxia Island.

The third is to play tricks on Li Ming and others in the six southern states to reduce the pressure on the six southeastern states.

The fourth is to find a way to win Longzhou.

The fifth is to make preparations for attacking Liangzhou and Dingzhou.

During this period of time, Qin Lang gave Yuhuatian a mission to try his best to destroy the autumn harvest of the six southern states and the two northwestern states.

They also gave Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, and Fazheng an extremely important errand, and asked Fazheng to go to Dingzhou, Guo Jia to Liangzhou, and Xi Zhicai to Gongzhou, mainly for the purpose of causing sabotage.

After receiving the news that Liu E was persuaded, Qin Lang sent Xun You, Fang Xuanling, Wei Qing, Wang Yanzhang, Wu Qi, and Zhang Han to Gongzhou to take over control.

This series of operations were all carried out by sea, and it took nearly half a month for the personnel transfer to be completed.

Xun You and his men landed along the coast of Longzhou with a thousand central troops, and then entered Longzhou City day and night.

Liu E also arrived in Xianyang half a month later, and he officially handed over power after meeting Qin Lang.

Qin Lang didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and what surprised him even more was that Liu E's subordinates had many capable people.

Chapter 0145 Satisfied

Qin Lang roughly glanced at the list of personnel, and felt the urge to rush up and kiss Liu E hard.

For generals alone, there are fifteen-star Yue Fei, fifteen-star Di Qing, Zhang Jun, Liu Guangshi, Yang Ye, Wang Jian, Zong Ze, Meng Gong, and Wu Jie.

Civil servants are not bad either, Fan Zhongyan, Su Xun, Su Zhe, Su Shi, Yan Shu, Qian Weiyan, Huang Tingjian, Zeng Gong, and the four Southern Song officials Li Gang, Zhao Ding, Li Guang, and Hu Quan.

During the New Year's Eve, Qin Lang had been envious of the [-]-star Yue Fei and Di Qing in the New Year's Brawl, but this time he got them without any effort. Qin Lang really hit the big luck.

Qin Lang asked Liu E if he had any requests, but Liu E didn't have any requests, he just said not to restrict her freedom.

This was nothing to Qin Lang, and he planned to transfer some money from the treasury to Liu E to express it, but Liu E directly refused.

It was only later that Qin Lang realized that Liu E was not stupid. Gongzhou was relatively safe, and with so many capable ministers to assist him, its economic development was even better than that of Zezhou.

Except for Liu E's half-year expenses reserved for Longzhou, all the other money in the treasury went into her own pocket.

Although he has nothing to do with the world, he also knows how miserable it is for a penny to beat a hero.

No one knows exactly how much money Liu E has, but Qin Lang can make a rough estimate based on the situation in Zezhou.

No matter how many there are in fact, Liu E is definitely a rich and invincible state. Qin Lang didn't dig deep into this. Others give in to each state as they say. The key is that there are so many famous ministers and generals, how can gold and silver comparable.

In order to ensure Liu E's personal safety and convenience of movement, Qin Lang specially approved five hundred imperial guards for her, and also presented her with a Qin King jade card that allowed the territory of Qin Wuzhou to be unimpeded.

No matter where she is, as long as she shows the jade card, no one will dare to touch her. In Qin Wuzhou, this is still useful.

Longzhou has actually become Qin Lang's territory now, but on the surface it still maintains Liu E's name. Only a very few people know about this.

Wei Qing is in charge of Longzhou's army, and Fan Zhongyan and other ministers are still in charge of political affairs. Fang Xuanling did not get involved in specific affairs in the past, and was only responsible for maintaining the same general direction as Qinzhou.

According to the data given by Liu E, there are not many troops in Longzhou, with only 50 combat soldiers and 150 million auxiliary soldiers.

Because there is no war, and she doesn't like to fight and kill, there has been no large-scale recruitment.

This made Qin Lang a little uncomfortable. With such a small force, it was not enough to defend Longzhou, let alone attack others.

I thought Liu E was really lucky. Xia Ji on the right had switched places with Xie Hui before, and her development was slow and she had no ambitions.

To the south is the sea, to the west and north are his own people, far away from Yang Kai, who likes to make troubles, and basically lived a life of isolation for a year and a half.

For Qin Lang, it is a great thing that Longzhou can get it, and it is not a small challenge. The management and operation of the enclave are too difficult. Fortunately, there is a sea link now, and no one else knows about it. thing.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, one day it will be broad daylight, and the military construction in Longzhou must be accelerated.

At this time, Qin Lang, Xun Yu and others were standing in front of the huge map of the Yizheng Hall to discuss matters. Half a decade later, the wars in the six southeastern states had changed to varying degrees.

Xi Zhicai, who went to Gongzhou, used Liulichang's influence to spread rumors and make troubles, saying that this year's autumn harvest will be destroyed and the price of grain will increase.

There are also many myths about gods and ghosts and rural nursery rhymes, and there are all kinds of versions. No matter what the beginning is, the ending is all kinds of prophecies of famine.

Qin Lang had always spared no effort in investing in public opinion. He only wanted to spend a lot of money, and what he wanted was to spread rumors overnight.

Xi Zhicai's method is very clever, there are rumors that he started from the countryside, and there are also rumors that he started from nobles and wealthy merchants.

Within three to five days, there was a wave of food storage in Gongzhou. Hezhou, which had just escaped from the war, was even more panicked. More than half of the cultivated land in Hezhou was destroyed due to the continuous war.

Whether the normal operation of Hezhou can be maintained depends entirely on Gongzhou's autumn harvest this year.

Once there is a problem with the autumn harvest in Gongzhou, Li Ming will have to spend a huge amount of money to buy food. Once this happens, the battle with Yang Kai can only be forced to stop.

Not only in Gongzhou and Hezhou, but also in the entire six southern states at almost the same time, and almost on the same day, there were businessmen robbing grain in every city in every state.

On the first day, the six cents a catty of grain in the market was sold for ten cents in an instant.

On the second day, most people who hadn’t reacted felt that these merchants were stupid. The price difference of four cents was not profitable. Many farmers and small traders directly sold half of their stored grain.

On the third day, the price of grain rose to [-] cents, and they still refused to refuse, and they accepted as many merchants as there were.

Only at this time did the public figure out the taste, and with the rumors in the market, those with a sense of crisis immediately began to stockpile food.

Only some unbelieving and gambler-minded people began to play tricks with merchants to drive up prices.

By the fifth day, the price of grain in the market had soared to five times, and everyone who had to be sold had been sold, and many people even threw out their stored grain.

Who would have thought that on the seventh day, the price of grain would rise by 36% again, and a catty of grain would be [-] Wen. It is not a famine year, and this price has already broken the sky.

If it continues to rise, the government will have to end the game to stabilize the grain price. At this time, the official grain enters the market, and the army will feel uncomfortable.

Listening to Xun Yu's report, Qin Lang felt that the force was not enough, so he told Xun Yu, "Send a message to Xi Zhicai. After seven days, I will see the government food to save the market. No matter how much it is, just spend it."

"Also, have you checked out those merchants who wanted to transfer gold and silver?"

Xun Yu thought for a while and replied: "They are all businessmen from the six southern states of Pingzhou and Liangzhou. There are more than a thousand of them, and a dozen or so of them have accumulated millions of dollars in our Qinzhou. When I got to the accounts of these people, the amount of storage was so small that I didn’t see it.”

Qin Lang snorted coldly: "I'll teach them a good lesson this time, go and say hello to Bai Qi, and gradually relax the grain trucks to leave the country. Everything else will be strictly inspected."

"My lord, what do you mean...?" Xun Yu immediately thought of what would happen to Qin Wuzhou next, and couldn't help admiring Qin Lang's thoughts.

Qin Lang snorted coldly and said, "You need to have enough drama, send people to spread the news at a high price, and say that the border guards will be bribed, and the food will be shipped out."

Yong Rui, the head of the detailed work department, was the most handy in doing this kind of thing, and he went down to start planning soon after receiving Qin Lang's order.

"Not surprisingly, these people will soon find an opportunity to get rich. If they want to earn money from me, Qinzhou, there is no way."

Qin Lang then set his sights on the six states in the southeast: "Tell me about the situation in Bozhou, Xiazhou, and Mingzhou."

Chapter 0146

Grain, salt, iron, etc. are prohibited items that cannot be transported out of Qinzhou. In addition, Qinzhou is a major grain-producing state, and the price of grain has always been stable.

Especially this summer, a wave of grain was harvested, which led to the extremely abundant grain and grass in the three outer states. Now if anyone had more grain than Qin Lang, only King Zhou's East Kyushu could compare.

Scarcity is the most expensive thing, and food and grass are all out of stock. For the people of Qin Wuzhou, the food stored at home is enough for three years. Even if the surplus food is sold, it is not worth much money. It is better to go to work Earn a lot.

This has also led to the fact that Qin Wuzhou's grain is already at full capacity. Once the autumn harvest is completed, the price of grain, which is as stable as an old dog, is estimated to drop by [-]%.

Therefore, there are very few merchants in the grain business in Qinwuzhou. The key is that the weather here is good and the output is high. The old rice is not finished and the new rice comes out again. The profit is extremely low, and whoever does it will be locked in.

Yong Rui is currently plotting nervously with a few capable subordinates, and he has worked hard to set an example for this matter.

Qin Lang has always used people from Liulichang. Although the detailed work department is located in 36 states, its scale is far smaller than that of Liulichang.

In Yong Rui's heart, he always felt that the people in the detailed work department were not bad, but they didn't have a chance to show their abilities. After waiting for so long, they finally got a task, and they couldn't lose the chain no matter what.

Qin Lang had a clear division of functions in Liulichang, the detailed work department, and the under-construction Hongxiu Zhao.

Liulichang is mainly responsible for military infiltration and information collection, while the Special Operations Division is mainly responsible for social infiltration and information collection.

The red-sleeve move is aimed at the infiltration among noble officials. It is normal to visit brothels. Those who can spend a lot of money have no status, and who don't know some secrets.

As long as you grasp the weakness of this part, the higher-level secrets will be easier to obtain.

And now Qin Lang has an extra Fengyun Tower on Mrs. Bai's side, with four lines coming out at the same time, which can be regarded as a thorough play of spies.

In the Hall of Political Affairs, Xun Yu gave a detailed introduction to the current war situation in the six southeastern states.

An Lan, a school girl wearing a Diao Chan vest, and Chen Bing confronted Liu Ziye's garrison in Bozhou outside Dongbo City. The two sides had two fierce battles, but they were just tentative.

Nan Jinyu, a class flower wearing a big Qiao vest, launched three consecutive attacks on Fu Sheng in Mingzhou, but was repelled by Fu Sheng's men. The two sides were in a stalemate in Dongming City. For a while, Nan Jinyu had no choice but to take Fu Sheng.

Compared with Bozhou and Mingzhou, Xiazhou's pressure is not insignificant. Xixia City has to resist the attack from Huizhou Zhang Hao.

Chuxia City in the northwest had to deal with the attack of Bianzhou grade director Zhen Mi. Cao Jie, a girl who was usually so quiet that she had no sense of presence, not only repelled Zhang Hao's attack, but also withstood Zhen Mi's siege.

According to the content of the secret letter, the number of soldiers in Xiazhou exceeded 100 million, and the equipment was not bad. Although Xiazhou was small in size, it had enough iron ore reserves.

In terms of equipment and weapons, Xiazhou's warriors have obvious advantages, and they are more than one level stronger than Zhang Hao and Zhen Mi's leather armored warriors.

Judging from the current battle reports, the wars on these three battlefields have just kicked off, and they are all offensive and defensive battles on the frontal battlefield, and it will take a long time.

After listening to the latest battle report, Qin Lang pursed his lips: "It's still not fierce enough. We have to find a way to add fire to them. If you don't fight to the death, what kind of battle are you fighting? An Lan and Nan Jinyu are still too gentle."

Qin Lang waved at Yu Huatian, who had been standing on the edge all the time: "Go find some scholars who draw story books, make up some stories about Liu Ziye and Fu Sheng's fantasies about An Lan and Nan Jinyu, and then let people tell them in Yangzhou and Ningzhou Spread it out and give them some motivation."

Yuhuatian and Qin Lang looked at each other tacitly, and then left with fists in their hands.

The proud and arrogant An Lan and Nan Jinyu couldn't bear all kinds of blasphemy against them, and they would retaliate when they heard that there was a little color in other people's comments.

In their eyes, all boys are toads, and they all want to eat their toads.

Qin Lang had to admit that the appearance of these two people was indeed one of the best, they developed early, and their figures were also very good-looking.

But Qin Lang really couldn't appreciate that kind of temper and character that was arrogant and arrogant.

Even though the two of them have delicate and artificial personalities and weird tempers, there are still countless licking dogs coming forward one after another.

Liu Ziye and Fu Sheng are one of them. When these two people confessed their love to Xiaohua and Banhua, they made a lot of noise.

This time An Lan and Nan Jinyu took the initiative to send them to the door, even if Yang Kai was holding back, the two of them had to fight hard.

It was Cao Jie's blockbuster that caught Qin Lang's attention. Xiazhou was on the left side of Longzhou, and it was a relationship between lips and teeth.

If Xiazhou disappeared, Longzhou would also be at stake. At this time, Qin Lang was no longer an outsider, and he would support everything he should invest in and support.

This man, Qin Lang, thought of Zhang Haolai. As one of the few people in the class who could speak, and Zhang Hao's idea of ​​going it alone at first, Qin Lang planned in his heart to turn against this guy.

If it succeeds, the power in the six southern states will not be stable. The more chaotic they are, the better for Qin Lang.

But this matter can't be rushed, at least let them spend a while before talking.

In the evening, Yong Rui went to Qin Lang and explained all the plans, checked and filled in gaps, and discussed again. With Qin Lang's approval, Yong Rui took his capable officers and spread them to every corner of Xianyang City.

Overnight, a piece of news that money is hard to find spread among those wealthy foreign businessmen in a very secret way.

For several days in a row, there was an endless stream of trucks leaving Xianyang every day. On the surface, it could not be seen that they were loaded with grain and grass. Some people would cover them with a layer of fur, cloth or herbs to hide their eyes and ears.

But some clues can be guessed from the wheel marks and the horses pulling the cart. In this way, the secrets of high-end players are discovered by those who are interested.

I don't know how the news spread. These out-of-state businessmen were united in one spirit and threw themselves into the grain grabbing war.

In this huge granary in Qinzhou, the extremely stable grain price was artificially raised to twenty cents a catty in less than a week.

At this time, the price of grain in the six southern states has been raised eight times, close to the price of [-] cents a catty. Even if the price is ridiculously high, there is not a single grain left of the small amount of grain stored by the people.

As long as Qinzhou's grain can be transported to the six states in the southeast, regardless of the transportation cost and the tribute money when passing the checkpoint, a catty of grain can still earn [-] Wen. Whoever does not do this kind of money-gathering business is a fool.

Xi Zhicai played an extremely final role in the food shortage that was created out of nothing. Liulichang paid a big price to start the first three waves of grain collection, and exchanged real money for panic in the market, which triggered a butterfly effect.

The bet is that Li Ming dare not open the official warehouse easily. If he wants to stabilize the grain price, he has to open the warehouse to release grain. If he wants to continue the war, he cannot release a grain of grain.

I thought the food would not rise too fast, but who knew that now the price of food has risen to eight times, Li Ming is now on the verge of riding a tiger, those rich and powerful families have hoarded so much food, it is impossible for him to release food.

Just when Li Ming was in a dilemma, bad news spread almost simultaneously from the six southern states and the six southeastern states except Longzhou and Huizhou.

The grain in the field is not yet ripe, but it is all yellow.
