Mina compared the braised pork made by Mey, the soft bread made by Nicole, and the food on the table below. It should be the pig food that the young master said.

Before Mina waited long, the grain merchants came in from the outside, the maids were all driven out, and a few strong guards guarded the door.

"Wow! My friend, the food tonight is very rich. This pork is rotten and sweet." One of the grain merchants shouted excitedly, he grabbed the pork with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth.

"It's really delicious. It's even better than what my cook makes. This wheat bread is full of aroma." Another grain merchant, more like a starving ghost, was chewing on pork in one hand and wheat bread in the other.

"Everyone is having a good time. This is held according to the banquet of the nobles. Everyone eat more." A fat grain merchant said happily, he took the wheat wine and poured it into his mouth.

Mina on the beam, she almost vomited as she watched the eating of the people below.

Those dark fingernails clutching food, and those greasy beards; Mina compared her life in the castle now, and it really was the difference between heaven and hell.

She thought about it for a while, and found that the other nobles seemed to be similar. Everyone was eating with their hands, and at most they would be equipped with an exquisite knife.

"Could it be that the young master is the real noble?"

Mina had such a question. There are several ways to eat meat in the castle. For steak, a knife and fork are used, and for fried meat, chopsticks made of two wooden sticks are used.

She remembered that when she and Nicole ate steak for the first time, they felt like laughing when they saw the knives and forks. It was the young master who taught them to eat steak with knives, forks and chopsticks.

"That is to say, is my life better than the princess?" Mina thought wildly in her heart.

While we were eating and chatting, we started chatting with gossip. For example, the grain merchant of that company made a lot of money, and the one that used coarse wheat mixed with refined wheat, but sold it at the price of refined wheat.

After a few grain merchants were full, they burped a few times, and they all laughed heartily, "Hahaha... Really cool!"

"Everyone is full, it's time to talk about business." The fat grain merchant said sternly.

"Tell me, it's definitely not as simple as having a meal alone when you call us here."

The fat grain merchant nodded, glanced at the few people present, and lowered his voice slightly, "Everyone should know that the autumn wheat harvest is a few days away. When the wheat harvest is bumper, our wheat prices will plummet."

"Indeed, ours is the old barn, which is worse than the newly harvested wheat." Some grain merchants agreed.

"Is it going to raise the price again? I only mentioned it once two days ago, and it took a long time to raise the price again. I'm afraid it will be disturbed by the people." A grain merchant worried.

"What are you afraid of? Don't they buy wheat? As long as we don't sell wheat for five or six days, many people will starve to death. Who dares to make trouble?" The fat grain merchant said dismissively.

"Indeed, as long as we unify the price, those people have to buy it if they don't."

"I'm only worried about whether the city lord will suppress us. You must know that the city lord has recruited more than 100 soldiers today." A grain merchant said worriedly.

"Hey..." The fat grain merchant smiled disdainfully, "Are you afraid of the newly recruited militia? They are not knights."

"When the new city owner has trained the militia, the autumn harvest has come, we have earned enough, and everyone has to leave Xiyang City. What are you afraid of?"

The fat grain merchant stood, waved his hands and said passionately, "And, are you afraid? This new city lord has no skills, and he has cut himself off. He has exempted so much tax. He has to support more than 100 people. What do you think? Should the wheat be sold to him?"

"Hahaha... If you are obedient, sell it to him. If you don't listen, you will not sell it. Those militiamen will make trouble if they don't have food."

Chapter 0022 Mina's killing intent.

On the beam of the house, Mina took out two sabers. When she heard the grain merchants below Liu Feng, she wanted to go down and slaughter these people. If it weren't for the critical moment, she heard the news she wanted, maybe the following The grain merchants are all dead.

"Don't forget, everyone, we are helping Baron Omar and the others. This new city lord dare not offend Baron Omar and the others. Otherwise, Baron Omar and other nobles can easily kill this new city lord by sending troops together. "The fat grain merchant shouted triumphantly.

"Hahaha... Do you want to leak the news that we are Baron Omar?" A grain merchant laughed wildly.

"Okay, and in a few days, we will price again. Before the autumn harvest, we will raise a pound of coarse wheat to six copper coins." The fat grain merchant sneered.

"Hahaha... OK, just do as you say."

Hearing this, Mina stopped listening. She took out a notepad from her arms and wrote down what she heard on it.

She wanted to quickly pass the news back. These grain merchants are here to harvest money. You must know that there were only two copper coins per pound of coarse wheat, and only four copper coins even for refined wheat.

The price of coarse wheat is now reaching the price of refined wheat, which is killing a lot of people, and they plan to raise the price again.

Mina silently descended from the beam, and then, under the shade of the shadow, walked out of the house with ease, and she also brought out a piece of pork.

"Pooh……"

On the way, Mina spat out the pork, "This meat is really unpalatable."

She looked at the delicious food that those people ate, and thought it was delicious, but when she ate it in her mouth, she realized that it was salty and fishy, ​​and it was the same taste in her memory.

Soon, Mina returned to the castle, and she came to the study with ease.

As soon as she entered the door, Mina smelled a familiar smell, and a warm voice sounded in her ears. Liu Feng chuckled, "I'm back, I cooked lean meat porridge for you, come and eat."

"Mmmm!" Mina nodded obediently, her cat ears trembled, she put the notepad in her arms in front of Liu Feng, and sat down on the desk.

"Meow! It's delicious..." Mina took the lean meat porridge and ate it in big mouthfuls, shaking her head from time to time.

Liu Feng looked at the news on the notepad and turned his head from time to time to ask about the situation. After all, the words written by Mao Erniang were just like Mao Pao.

"The situation is similar to what I imagined, but it is a little unexpected. I didn't expect that the nobles of other cities have been reaching out for so long."

Liu Feng closed the notepad and thought about it. Today's events reminded him.

"Master, shall I kill them all?" Mina put down the third empty bowl and said murderously.

"I can't kill them yet."

Liu Feng shook his head. His soldiers had just been recruited, and they had no combat power at all. Once these grain merchants were killed, those nobles would find excuses to send troops to Xiyang City.

What he lacks now is time. Give him 20 days, and he will not be afraid of those knights of nobles.

"What about the food price?" Mina asked in distress.

"No hurry, they want to raise the price. I estimate that in three days, I will let them taste the scene where no one buys wheat." A cold light flashed in Liu Feng's eyes.

Mina's blue eyes blinked, she tilted her head and thought about it, but she didn't think there was any way to make people stop buying wheat in three days.

"Okay, go wash up when you're full, and then go to sleep. It's been a long day." Liu Feng pinched Mina's cat's tail.

"Hey..." Mina's cheeks instantly turned red, her blue eyes were full of water mist, she hurriedly pulled her tail back, and ran out of the study with a little embarrassed pace.

"Uh……"

Liu Feng's palms were stiff there. He scratched the back of his head and said inexplicably, "What's wrong with Mi Na? Why are you suddenly shy?"

"By the way, I pinched her tail just now...this...cough cough..."

Liu Feng thought of an article he saw on Earth. It said that if humans still kept their tails when they evolved, then the tail is one of the most sensitive parts of human beings.

"Looks like you were teasing Mina just now!" Liu Feng smiled wryly.
