This matter made a lot of noise and inevitably spread to Nie Xun's ears.

After hearing this, Nie Xun was stunned and looked straight ahead. His pupils were listless. The soldier who replied hung his head in fear and was worried.

After a while, Nie Xun didn't move. The soldier dared to look up secretly. He saw Nie Xun covering his shoulder with one hand and picking the table with the other hand. His fingers and knuckles turned white because of force, and his pale and bleeding forehead burst out of fine sweat. The soldier was stunned and saw red and black blood seeping from Nie Xun's clothes on his shoulder. He didn't care much. He hurried forward to help Nie Xun, and the other party fell to one side.

"Military doctor - military doctor - come quickly!!!"

Nie Xun's old wound recurred, and the wound on his shoulder healed soon collapsed again. Fortunately, the cracked wound was not long, otherwise it would be in trouble.

The military doctor helped Nie Xun deal with the wound and wrote a prescription for the apprentice to take medicine. Nie Xun also woke up.

"Is the military master awake?"

The deputy general who stood by the bed shouted, and several other people gathered around. They were relieved immediately.

Nie Xun's face was pale and his eyes were a little confused. After a while, he found his memory before he was unconscious.

His mood was very calm and his tone weakly comforted the people, "I'm fine. I'll be fine in two days."

A deputy general said angrily, "if those profiteers hadn't taken the opportunity to make a fortune and wantonly bid up food prices, how could the military division have fainted?"

"There are few businessmen who want to pursue profits. These are a group of villains who are open to money. Just make money. How can they care about others?"

The situation in Chenzhou is not good. Those merchants are not afraid to mix up a pool of water and take the opportunity to make war money. They are really a group of black hearted people!

"They are short-sighted. They only know that they are profitable. Where will they worry so much?"

Several deputy generals expressed their indignation one after another and wanted to send troops to kill all the unscrupulous businessmen who bid up food prices in the city.

The more they talked, the more angry they became, and their voices rose until the military doctor interrupted them.

"Generals, the military division needs to rest now. Don't make noise. You can come back tomorrow if you have anything."

Nie Xun leaned out his thin hand and weakly waved it, indicating that the military doctor didn't have to say much.

He asked weakly, "what's going on outside?"

A deputy general lined up and reported back, "the rice shop still refused to let go, and the grain price increased by another 10%

Since the news of the shortage of grain in Chenzhou came out, the rice merchants who hoarded grain smelled the business opportunity and took the opportunity to bid up the price and sell Chen rice at a high price.

Feng Jin didn't send many sailors. Instead, rice merchants in Chenzhou spontaneously helped and became free tap water.

While fanning the flames and causing food shortage, they sold Chen Mi piled up in the warehouse at a high price.

At this time, the food price was several times higher than usual, which was sky high and had already exceeded the purchasing power of ordinary families.

Even so, food is still in short supply, and it is basically sold out by irrational people as soon as it is on the shelves.

People without grain reserves scrambled to buy, and people with grain reserves also followed the crowd and tried to grab more.

The streets near Mipu were crowded by frightened people, and more than one stampede occurred.

Nie Xun was so angry that his old injury recurred.

Seeing that Nie Xun didn't speak, the deputy general couldn't help saying, "military division, what should we do now? It's better to catch those merchants -"

Nie Xun asked him, "why?"

If there is no suitable reason to arrest people, isn't it a disguised recognition of food shortage?

An unconfirmed rumor makes the people so crazy. If it is confirmed, the whole Prefecture will be really over.

The deputy general blushed when asked by Nie Xun. He couldn't hold a word for a long time. He really didn't know what reason to arrest people.

On the other hand, "these profiteers are not damned to take advantage of the chaos to bid up food prices?"

"Naturally, we should catch it, but we can't use this reason." Nie Xun half closed his eyes weakly and said weakly, "these merchants sell chenmi from previous years. It's better to use another reason - for example, in order to sell the stored chenmi and reduce losses, merchants spread rumors of food shortage in Chenzhou and deceive the people to rush to buy food. What do you think?"

A few people are happy. This reason is good. It can not only clean up the merchants openly, but also throw the black pot of rumors on the merchants, blurring the current situation of grain shortage in Chenzhou. As long as the people settle down and the people don't make trouble, Chenzhou can last for a month or two!

A deputy general said, "if you can delay for a while, you will have an autumn harvest in another month or two. At that time, the new rice will be collected and the grain shortage will be solved."

Nie Xun nodded weakly. Seeing that his eyebrows were tired, they chose to leave with a wink.

When they all left, Nie Xun opened his eyes and a little ridicule flashed through his eyes.

What if we delay until the autumn harvest?

Chenzhou has been plagued by wars for several years, and the grain harvest in the territory can not be raised, so it can not stop such a large grain gap at all.

If Huang song gives some support, there may still be a chance.

However, Huang song gave up Chenzhou. Otherwise, why hasn't Nie Xun sent a message to Huang song for so long?

Smart as he is, he has guessed Huang song's decision, but he can't tell the truth to others.

Chenzhou was already in turmoil. If the soldiers at the bottom knew about it, they would collapse overnight.

Nie Xun's response policy spread to Feng Jin's ears. He smiled and said, "Nie Chengyun's response is not slow."

Meng Hun shook his head and said, "it is said that when he heard the news, he was so angry that his old injury relapsed. I don't know how long this body can last."

Feng Jin said, "there's still a lack of heat."

Meng Hun was surprised, "lack of heat?"

Feng Jin said with a smile, "here's our chance."

At this time, it is natural to fan the flames and add fuel to the flames, so that Nie Xun has no time to attend to him.

According to Nie Xun's idea, rice merchants in Chenzhou who bid up grain prices and spread rumors were arrested, and the confiscated grain was sold to the people at a low price.

Many people bought grain, and others who were still waiting saw it. They suddenly lost the idea of rush buying, and the rumor was broken.

Nie Xun knows very well that this is only a temporary cure, not a permanent cure. Over time, the people will still find clues.

In order to stabilize the political situation, Nie Xun had to deal with government affairs with injuries, and his daily rest time was less than two hours.

The military doctor failed to dissuade him for many times, so he could only let Nie Xun go.

Since the old injury collapsed, Nie Xun's condition has been repeated.

It's not that military medicine is not good. It's only that Nie Xun doesn't follow the doctor's advice at all.

In the middle of the night, Nie Xun's body began to heat again. He slept for half a night. When he woke up, the room was dark.

He tried to shout. His dry voice couldn't make a sound. He had to sit up and shake out of the door step by step.

Nie Xun raised his hand and wiped his hot face, even his breath was hot.

"What's that --"

He struggled to open his sleepy eyes and found a layer of orange light on the distant sky.

"Out of the water -"
