Anger

"Miss, you really have the ability to turn decay into something magical."

Lao Kang also ate steamed buns and a steamed bun.

At this time, he was really emotional.

The wheat that not many people had ever bought actually turned into such a good thing in the hands of his young lady.

He knew it was made of wheat, and he also knew that a pound of wheat could probably make several steamed buns.

Three pennies per pound is a huge profit, and you can make a lot of money.

On the same day, he arranged for many people to buy wheat.

This kind of good thing must be grasped in hand before everyone can react.

Now he is not afraid at all. These things are in his hands, and he not only has people buy them from nearby places, but also has them go to distant places to buy them.

Although the shipping cost will be a little higher, the profits from this thing are huge, and those costs are nothing to worry about.

After making buns and steamed buns, Lu Yaoyao used flour and taught the kitchen people to make other ones.

For example, noodles, dumplings, shaved noodles, gnocchi, etc.

After the wheat turned into flour, flowers appeared in her hands.

And all the things she has researched will be tasted by the people in the village.

When everyone learned that it was made of wheat, their eyes widened in shock.

I can't believe it, I really can't believe it.

The guys here at Lu Yaoyao are working in full swing, but the recent situation in the capital is not very good.

Now all the major food stores in the capital have been closed.

The aristocratic families did not release grain, and the small grain merchants also sold out their grain.

The people in the capital can't even buy food with their money now. How can the situation be better?

People's hearts have begun to wander.

Above the court, Emperor Hongwen was also very angry these days. Two officials had already been killed by his order because of their remarks in the court.

The aristocratic family had been refusing to release food, and Emperor Hongwen did not want to bow his head.

He has been holding back his energy to deal with these wealthy families. Now if he is asked to bow his head and beg the other party, how can he still have face as the emperor?

However, now not only are the disaster victims without food, but the people who are not affected by the disaster also don't have much food left.

Not to mention other places, there are already many people in the capital who cannot buy food even with money.

In the imperial study, Emperor Hongwen sat behind the dragon table with a gloomy expression.

"Your Majesty, the current situation is very serious. If we don't make a decision, I'm afraid there will be big problems."

Wen Songtao has also been very worried recently.

"Are you going to be like those guys and force me to bow to those wealthy families?"

Emperor Hongwen stared at Wen Songtao angrily.

These were his confidants. If it had been those officials from aristocratic families or someone else's sect, he would have had them beaten or beheaded long ago.

"I am not forcing Your Majesty, but I am begging Your Majesty for the sake of the people of the world."

"The current situation is very serious. There have been many voices in the capital. If it is not resolved, I'm afraid there will be big trouble."

Emperor Hongwen didn't know what Wen Songtao said, but he was not convinced.

He is the emperor, where does the wealthy family dare to bully and oppress him like this?

Kill, in the past few days, he had thought about it more than once, directly mobilizing troops to kill some wealthy families.

If you don't give me food, why can't I still steal it?

However, he just thought about it, because he knew very well that once he made this decision, Dongzhou would be completely in chaos. Not to mention whether his position would be secure, but Dongzhou's foundation would probably be lost.

It may collapse.

If this is the case, then he is a sinner of the royal family.

He wanted to, but he couldn't and didn't dare.

"I ask your Majesty to make a decision as soon as possible. This matter must not be delayed any longer."

As soon as Wen Songtao said these words, Emperor Hongwen's body, which had been sitting upright, suddenly softened.

The breath that was held in my heart was released at this time.

"You can go there for me and ask the court to buy food from them."

Seeing that Emperor Hongwen had made a decision, Wen Songtao breathed a sigh of relief and agreed.

When Wen Songtao exited the imperial study, Emperor Hongwen leaned back a little disappointed.

"Wang De, do you think I can only be suppressed by others in this life?"

"The great families are suppressing me, the Duke of Zhenguo, the Queen and others are also suppressing me."

Hearing his words, Wang De did not dare to speak, but he also knew that His Majesty felt very uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, the days are still long, so don't think too much. If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time. This world will always be your Majesty's."

Hearing this, Emperor Hongwen nodded, and his original expression of disappointment instantly subsided.

His eyes were full of cold murderous intent.

Yes, the days are still long. If he failed this time, there will be a next time. He is the emperor and there will always be a chance.

The next day.

Wen Songtao went to the aristocratic family's mansions in various parts of the capital and found their person in charge in the capital.

However, things did not go smoothly. It was not that the price charged by the family was too high, but that they kept saying that their family members also wanted to eat the food.

After receiving the news, Emperor Hongwen was furious again.

"What do they want?"

"I've already regressed, but they're still upping the ante?"

"Do you really think that the knife in my hand is not sharp?"

"Come, tell the Duke of the town."

The waiter immediately responded and left.

Seeing this, Wen Songtao's expression changed, and he quickly raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, calm down, this matter cannot be done like this, and you must not use weapons at this time."

"Huh, I've already given them face. Since they don't want it, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Your Majesty, think twice."

Wen Songtao immediately knelt down.

He knew very well that once force was used, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Not long after, the Duke of Zhenguo entered the palace.

"Old minister, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"Mr. Zhen Guo, please immediately order 30,000 soldiers and horses to help me destroy all the aristocratic families in Chang'an City and the surrounding areas."

For the first time, Duke Zhen Guo thought there was something wrong with his ears.

How could one hear such words?

Although, he also wanted to get rid of those aristocratic families, after all, these aristocratic families would also threaten the future eldest prince.

But it’s one thing to think about it, and it’s another thing to do it.

Doing it recklessly would only make things get out of hand, and he didn't want to see that happen.

He also knew about the recent affairs in the court, and he also knew about Wen Songtao's visit to the heads of the aristocratic families today.

At this time, Emperor Hongwen was so angry that he could guess without even thinking that the aristocratic family had no intention of releasing food.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. The family deserves to die, but not now."

"I am sorry that I cannot accept your order."

Hearing this, Emperor Hongwen's expression turned cold and his eyes stared at him.

"You want to resist the decree?"

The Duke of Zhen Guo quickly knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "I don't dare. I just feel that this matter cannot be done. Please think again, Your Majesty."
