Since they know how to use the people to build momentum for themselves, Shen Ruoyan also thought of this.

Not only did she send people with a large amount of goods, she pretended to go to Yizhou to do business, forcing these local gentry to pay high prices to buy the goods.In addition, Shen Ruoyan also arranged for people to go to towns near Yizhou to spread the news that people on the border were purchasing various goods at high prices.

As a result, people who smelled business opportunities flocked in with large quantities of goods. No matter how rich the local gentry were, they could not stop each caravan one by one. A large number of people poured into Yizhou with goods.

At the same time, many newly opened shops have sprung up in Yizhou.

These shops range from restaurants to street stalls, covering almost every industry in clothing, food, housing and transportation. What they have in common is that they are low-priced and sell in strict accordance with the government's guidance.

It turned out that while the attention of the local gentry was attracted by the traders on the border, another group of people transferred from the capital had already begun to intensively prepare for the first shop to establish a foothold in Yizhou.

They are masters of business. Even in the treacherous and ever-changing capital city, they can make their shops bigger and stronger. In a place like Yizhou, they are simply killing chickens with a sledgehammer. There are a few people who can start a business in one go. Opened several shops.

Just when Shen Ruoyan was worried that they would be too busy, she was already humming a little tune leisurely and greeting the endless stream of guests.

Because the prices of the goods in the shop are low and the quality is good, you can buy as much as you want without too much publicity. It was immediately warmly welcomed by the people. No matter what the goods were, they were sold out as soon as they came up. Fortunately, it was opened. The goods prepared before are sufficient, otherwise we would have to worry about not having enough to sell.

Seeing that these shops not only sold goods at extremely low prices, but also guaranteed a steady supply of goods, the local gentry were completely panicked.

They wanted to find someone to smash up these shops, but there were people around the shops secretly protecting them. Before the people they sent could even lift a stick, they were beaten up and tied up and forced into the government office.

Now the local gentry who had hoarded a large amount of goods were forced to follow up and sell the goods at very low prices, because most of the goods they hoarded were grain, oil, rice, and noodles. Daily necessities are not only troublesome to store, but they can also easily go bad if you are not careful. If you don’t take care of them, they may end up in your hands.

What makes them even more depressed is that a large part of these goods were purchased at a price higher than the market price. With such going in and out, not only did they spit out all the money they had earned before, but they also lost money. Losing a lot of old capital can be said to be losing both his wife and his troops.

The turmoil caused by rising prices has stopped, and the people have returned to their original stable lives.

However, as the saying goes, a centipeded insect is not dead. After this struggle, although the local gentry suffered heavy losses, they were not greatly implicated in this matter.

Although Shen Ruoyan had collected a lot of letters between them and their master, it was far from enough if she wanted to use this to convict them.

They could just pretend they didn't know anything and put the blame on their managers.

But Shen Ruoyan is not in a hurry, she knows that these problems cannot be solved overnight.

The confrontation with the local gentry has only begun.

The pull between them will only last a long time.

Fortunately, taking advantage of this turmoil, Shen Ruoyan's bosses opened large and small shops all over Yizhou.

Because they were the first stores to sell low-priced goods, they had a very good reputation among the people. Even if prices returned to normal, everyone would still like to go to these stores to buy things. This was a good start.

After reading the letters written by everyone to report on the recent operating conditions of each shop, Shen Ruoyan rubbed her brows tiredly.

The secret guard on the side saw it and asked very discerningly: "Is it time for the young lady to return to Zhoucheng?"

Young Pavilion Master, he has been waiting for you so long that he almost looked at his husband. Of course, this husband refers to my wife’s husband.

Naturally, the secret guard did not say the second half of the sentence.

As the secret guard assigned by Lu Yan to Shen Ruoyan, in addition to taking good care of the young lady, he also has a very important task every day, which is to report all the young lady's daily affairs to the young pavilion master.

He was already familiar with such a task, but just a few days ago, the usually silent Young Pavilion Master suddenly sent him a letter of his own initiative.

The content of the letter is very simple. There is only one sentence, asking him when the young lady will come back?

After the secret guard received this letter, a strange expression appeared on the hard face that was carved by a scabbard and an ax for the first time.

In his mind, the all-powerful Young Pavilion Master has always been a cold and detached figure like a god. However, looking at such a perfect person always makes people feel a little distressed.

He is like a god, always standing high in the clouds, not like the fireworks of the world, but people can't help but worry about him, whether the young pavilion master will spend his whole life so lonely.

Fortunately, the young pavilion master married a young lady.

Ever since he met the young lady, he could clearly feel that Lu Yan had a lot more humanity in him. The cold and desolate god who fell from the clouds also began to have the emotions and desires of a mortal.

He likes the current Lu Yan better than the previous Young Pavilion Master.

When he sees the young madam, he will show a gentle and doting smile, and he will also postpone the original schedule again and again because he can't bear to leave the young madam.

Not now, the Young Pavilion Master actually took the initiative to write a letter asking him when the Young Madam would come back?

God knows, what a shock he felt when he read the contents of the letter!

This was something he had never dared to think about.

When Shen Ruoyan heard the secret guard's question, she turned her head and looked into the distance.

The crisp, smoky peaks in the distance always reminded her of someone unconsciously.

I wonder if Lu Yan is having a good time in Zhoucheng?

He must be very pleased when he sees that his laws are actually implemented.

In fact, Shen Ruoyan missed Lu Yan very much in her heart, but the things here were not finished yet, so she could not go back yet.

This turmoil has involved too many innocent people, including Zhang Tao, and Shen Ruoyan wants to seek justice for him!

When she came to Zhao's house again, maybe it was because she felt good after settling the matter, or maybe because the sunshine was so good today, Shen Ruoyan found that in addition to a touch of sadness on the faces of the servants, there was also an expectation for future life.

Whenever you are alive, you must always look forward.
