Capítulo 65: Chapter 65: Saved a Damsel in Distress _1

...

A few days later.

There were already signs of chaos in the Changning Garrison's jurisdiction.

Wang Shouzhe would receive a letter from Wang Shouyi every couple of days describing events happening in Changning. The city defense office had reached an agreement with two Celestial being families, several top Spirit Platform families including the Xu family in Changning, as well as Qian's trading company and other forces. They had begun to open their granaries for disaster relief.

However, the city is populated with many people; it is a large city with a population of over 100,000. The amount of grain consumed daily is astronomical.

Some audacious merchants had even hatched a plan to hoard supplies and sell grain to the city's residents at five to six times the price secretly. Their scheme was discovered by the city defense bureau, who not only executed them but also confiscated their hoarded grain.
