Chapter 499;

Chill in the side bones

King Jin was confused about her operation and couldn't understand it at all.

"You'll understand later."

Lu Yaoyao smiled softly and signaled Qiu Shuang to call Li Qi and Lao Kang in.

Not long after, Lao Kang and Li Qi arrived.

"Lao Kang, I just bought 200,000 taels of grain from the Luo family. You go to Yunling Pass to be responsible for the sales. I want you to sell all the grain to Xirong at twice the price. Remember to only sell to Xirong.

."

Hearing this, Lao Kang nodded without any hesitation.

Lu Yaoyao's eyes turned to Li Qi again.

"You will go to Yunling Pass with Lao Kang tomorrow along with fifty Black Cloud Hunters."

"Later I will ask Qiu Shuang to allocate 50,000 taels of silver to you. You can take it with you. When you get to Yunling Pass, let out the news that you can purchase unlimited amounts of wool for one penny per pound."

"Collecting wool?"

Everyone in the room was stunned by Lu Yaoyao's words.

"Miss, are you wrong? You want to harvest sheep, right? What are you doing collecting wool? That's useless."

Qiu Yu asked everyone's questions directly.

"You heard me right, I just want to buy wool. Who said wool is useless? This is a good thing."

"Just do as I say. Remember, the acquisition is only for Xirong."

Li Qi quickly raised his hands and answered.

"The wool received will be stored first, and I will arrange for people to transport it back later."

"In addition to buying wool, you must protect Lao Kang for me, do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Master Hunter. As long as my subordinates are here, Lao Kang will be safe."

Lu Yaoyao is still very confident in his guarantee.

"Okay, then you go down and get ready first, say goodbye to your family, make some arrangements, and tell them to come to me if they have any difficulties."

The two of them bowed their hands and thanked her, then left.

"What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

King Jin is really confused by Lu Yaoyao's actions now.

They were buying grain and wool, but they were only targeting Xirong. Why did he have the feeling that this was not taking advantage of Xirong, but giving benefits to Xirong?

Xirong has experienced the previous war, and the domestic situation is very bad. Food is definitely something they urgently need now. Lu Yaoyao sent them so much at once. Although it is not enough to supply the entire Xirong, it can still relieve a large number of people.

Besides, there is no such thing as wool harvesting in Xirong. It is not even as good as the weeds on the road.

After all, as a nomadic people in Xirong, weeds and the like can also be used to feed livestock.

"It's very simple. If Xirong provokes me twice, then I will let Xirong grassland remain alive for two years."

As soon as these words came out, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped a lot, and everyone felt the murderous intent in her words.

If the vitality persists for two years, how many people will die?

But after being shocked, they all wondered, what Lu Yaoyao did was obviously to extend Xirong's life, how could he keep his vitality alive for two years?

Seeing that none of them understood, Lu Yaoyao smiled lightly and said: "In the past, wool was not valuable, so it didn't matter, but after I buy it in unlimited quantities, what will happen to Xirong?"

"In addition, I also sell food, which is definitely good news for people who have no food to eat."

"But have you ever thought about whether the price of wool is equivalent to the price of grain?"

Hearing this, several people frowned and thought deeply. King Jin seemed to understand what Lu Yaoyao meant. His eyes trembled and he looked at Lu Yaoyao in shock.

My heart actually felt a little chilly.

This method is really cruel.

If this continues, Xirong may be destroyed.

Xirong is not like Dongzhou. Although it is called a country, it is a country jointly organized by many large and small tribes. It is not very peaceful on weekdays. It is just suppressed by the royal family, so it is not too violent.

But the current situation of the royal family is not very good. They are all busy competing for positions, so naturally their suppression of the following tribes will be reduced.

At this time, Lu Yaoyao purchased a large amount of wool, which was equivalent to sending money to Xirong. At the same time, she also sold grain, which was very tempting to Xirong at this stage.

In their view, it is equivalent to exchanging their useless wool for food. I am afraid that they will laugh at the Dongzhou people for being fools.

But is this really the case?

Obviously not, Lu Yaoyao gave him sugar-coated poison.

The price of wool is too cheap and the price of grain is too high. Even if Xirong is rich in food, it is far from enough.

So what will happen?

Naturally, the big tribes will rob the small tribes. After all, in order to survive, they can do anything.

Once someone has this idea, what will the grassland look like without the suppression of the royal family?

I'm afraid that various tribes will start competing for wool, after all, it can be used in exchange for food.

"Do you understand?"

King Jin stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat that had seeped out from his forehead at some point, nodded and said, "I understand, if Xirong knows your plan, I'm afraid he will regret provoking you very much."

"Understood?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Jin, what do you understand? Can you tell me about it?"

Qiu Yu spoke doubtfully.

Qiu Shuang, who was beside her, had not thought about it yet. When she heard Qiu Yu ask this question, she also turned to look at King Jin.

"Tell them?"

King Jin looked at Lu Yaoyao.

"Whatever you want."

Hearing this, King Jin thought for a while. These two people were Lu Yaoyao's confidants, so there was no harm in telling them.

Moreover, what Lu Yaoyao did was unexplainable even if he thought about it. Even if Xirong knew about it, there would be nothing he could do about it.

After all, Xirong is in great need of food now. Who can bear to exchange useless wool for food?

As King Jin analyzed them one by one, Qiu Yu's mouth opened wider and wider, and Qiu Shuang beside her also opened her mouth wide, but her whole body was a little cold.

She could almost imagine the bloody scenes of tribes fighting for wool in Xirong.

"Miss, what's wrong with your brain?"

"I can think of such a powerful method."

After Qiu Yu got serious, her face was filled with admiration.

Qiu Shuang also nodded repeatedly.

That afternoon, Lu Yaoyao's actions against Xirong reached the ears of Emperor Hongwen.

Following King Jin's explanation, Emperor Hongwen was also shocked and broke into a cold sweat.

This Xirong may not be able to recover for many years after this incident.

"As expected of me and Ajun's daughter, her brain is just amazing."

He was quite proud and happy.

"What do you mean, now Yaoyao has no money again?"

"Yes, but I have already planned to send her tens of thousands of taels for her use."

"Well, that's fine. It's not convenient for me to give it here."

I only gave it once before, and now I give it again, which will give people a very strange feeling.

The previous time, everyone didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, Lu Yaoyao had made a lot of contributions, so her position couldn't be promoted, so there was nothing wrong with her being rewarded with some money.

But Lu Yaoyao hasn't done anything recently. If he rewards him again, it will be hard to explain.
