    ??

    ¡°Cut the fucking nonsense!¡±

    "Snapped¡ª¡ª"

    Liu Deng cursed, then picked up the wine bowl in front of him, smashed it to pieces on the ground with a bang.

    "kill¡ª¡ª"

    Immediately afterwards, large groups of soldiers suddenly appeared on the walls on all sides, with their swords unsheathed and swords strung.

    Everyone is staring at Xu Yin!

    To them, this kid is not a dangerous person, he is a living military merit, and he is a walking captain.

    "It seems that I can't drink this wine!"

    Seeing the soldiers getting closer and closer to him, Xu Yin also smiled, stretched out his hand, and pushed all the wine bowls and jars in front of him to the ground.

    Du Ziteng was wearing thick armor and hurriedly led a few soldiers to guard Liu Deng in the middle. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief in his heart!

    Du Ziteng's heart is really full of worries. Fortunately, Liu Deng has not shown any injuries until now. He seems to be not only emotionally stable, but also in good physical condition.

    "Just because these people want to kill me, are you thinking too simply?"

    Xu Yin suddenly said with a smile.

    ¡°It¡¯s not easy, you¡¯ll know if you try it, just do it!¡±

    Liu Deng ordered the arrows to be released without saying anything. After all, he had no intention of capturing someone like Xu Yin alive!

    Kill them if you can. Every time there is one less person like this, there will be one less harm in the world.

    "Whoosh¡ª¡ª"

    "Whoosh¡ª¡ª"

    "Whoosh¡ª¡ª"

    Accompanied by a heart-wrenching sound of bow strings vibrating, a hail of arrows went straight to Xu Yin's heart.

    "Hahaha! Your Majesty, let's meet again another day!"

    Xu Yin's body suddenly turned like a ghost, drawing a beautiful arc, dodging most of the arrows, jumping off the city wall and disappearing into the vast night

    "Follow me!"

    " Du Ziteng was really unwilling to give up. Seeing this guy just running away, he immediately gave the order.

    "No need!"

    Liu Deng immediately stretched out his hand to stop him. Since there was no fatal blow, it would be useless to pursue him any further.

    Although this was originally expected, Liu Deng was really disappointed when it failed like this.

    ¡°Okay, everyone, let¡¯s go back and have a rest. We¡¯ll be more vigilant tonight and we¡¯ll talk about anything tomorrow!¡±

    More than half of the jar of wine went into Liu Deng¡¯s stomach. At this time, the night wind blew, and the drunkenness surged, making Liu Deng a little dizzy.

    "If you have wine today, you will be drunk today, and worry will come tomorrow. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

    When the sun rose again, the news from He Jin also came back.

    "There are more than 57,000 old, weak, women and children in this city?"

    Looking at the thin booklet in his hand, Liu Deng felt a little headache.

    "Your Majesty, there are more than 57,000 people, not including the people outside the city. All the people in the entire county, including those who fled the famine, the number is about 110,000"

    He Jin quickly explained.

    "One hundred and ten thousand? Why are there so many?"

    Liu Deng's head hurt even more. Are you kidding? Originally, there were only 50,000 or 60,000 people in the unlimited territory, but now the number has doubled. This is really a leak in the house and it rains all night, and the boat  Breaking the bias and taking the lead.

    "According to the minimum standard, how many days can the combined food in our hands last?"

    "Reporting to your Majesty, even if we calculate based on six taels of rations per person per day, it will not exceed ten days at most"

    The corners of He Jin's mouth were full of endless bitterness.

    Liu Deng held his forehead with one hand in pain, silently calculating in his heart, comparing the weight units between the Qin and Han Dynasties and later generations.

    One pound in the Han Dynasty was equivalent to about 250 grams, and one pound was equal to sixteen taels. If converted in this way, six taels is only 90 grams!

    This little food is not enough to fill the gap between teeth

    How could this be possible?

    Let alone adults, even children can¡¯t stand it.

    "No, it can't be calculated like this! Each person must have at least one to two kilograms of food every day!"

    Liu Deng gritted his teeth. If he really calculated based on the six taels of rations per day, he would probably have to eat it in a few days.There is no such thing as cannibalism.

    "But Your Majesty, if this is the case, we won't be able to survive for a few days"

    He Jin also had a bitter look on his face.

    "How many days can it last? I don't believe that I can prepare 500 cavalry for my king. Is there no food at all in this huge Jiaodong Kingdom?"

    Liu Deng gritted his teeth. At this time, he really couldn't wait any longer. He had to take the initiative.

    "No!"

    "I will leave the food distribution in the city to you. I have only one request, seven days. No one can starve to death within seven days! After seven days, I will come back with food!"

    "But Your Majesty, according to the news that my subordinates have just received, all the grain within a few hundred miles around here has been purchased by a trading company called Sihai Trading Company. Now they are waiting to hoard it. I'm afraid"

    He Jin said with some worry.

    "Sihai Trading Company? What a big tone, you don't have to worry about this matter, just take care of the people inside and outside the city for me!"

    Liu Deng had a sneer on his lips. It would be fine if those people were easy to negotiate with. If they played hoarding tricks with me, then don¡¯t blame yourself for letting them lose everything!

    In addition, he also wanted to see who he was. He was so bold and dared to call him Sihai Trading Company. This was a bit too loud!

    "No!"

    Hearing what the king said, He Jin did not continue. After all, he also knew what his king was capable of.

    When the king single-handedly conquered the six vassal states, someone once said that if Liu Deng¡¯s business talent dared to be ranked second, there would definitely be no one in the world who could be ranked first.

    After hurriedly getting up and washing up, Liu Deng did not eat the breakfast Du Ziteng had prepared for himself. Instead, he scooped a bowl of gruel from the big pot where the soldiers ate.

    After drinking a lot of water, hurriedly turn over and lead five hundred cavalry straight to Jimo City!

    After the rebellion, Jimo City, the original capital of Jiaodong Kingdom, is now somewhat deserted.

    The first and most important point is that most of the merchants in the city have fled.

    Before the war started, many people had already started to flee after hearing the news. After all, merchants were the biggest fat pigs to several big princes and kings.

    When you need money and food, just go and confiscate your family and exterminate your clan.

    Those who ran slowly and whose relationships were not strong enough were all doomed.

    Which one of those who can survive by chance doesn¡¯t have a great background?

    How could people like them be trapped in this small place waiting to die?
