My name is Ren

Chapter 126 Many big things are often planted on petty profits. There are many short-sighted people, and they are also terrible

As the food shortage became more and more serious, the people of Ortrenburg began to feel anxious.

Worship can't fill one's stomach, and faith can't be eaten as food. Compared with illusory spiritual food, it is obviously more important to be able to eat what is in one's stomach.Fortunately, the church has been doing disaster relief, distributing barley porridge, barely allowing everyone to eat something.But this kind of life will not last long. The entire southeast region has suffered from extremely severe rainstorms, and there are too many places that need disaster relief. The church is not a royal family, not a ruling class, and it cannot take the initiative and has no obligation to provide disaster relief.

Even if they wanted to do this, Pars might not be willing.

She would rather starve tens of thousands of 10,000+ people to death than to see these people be grateful to the church. This is what the ruler thinks. The dead ruled class is obviously cuter than the living ruled class who are thinking wildly.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and more and more hungry people began to appear on the streets, walking around aimlessly.From time to time, they tightened their belts hard, hoping that their oppressed stomachs would press against each other, giving them a sense of emptiness and fullness.

There are also some people with ulterior motives who appeared on the street.

"Do you know? We are starving outside, but the city lord enjoys exquisite food every day. The city lord can't even finish the food prepared for him by the cook, so many things are dumped and dumped in the trash can, and Many other rubbish were sent to the suburbs for landfill. The whole city is already hungry, why didn't the Lord of the City release the grain depot of the City Lord's Mansion? Maybe the food there won't last long, but at least it will allow us to persevere For a while." A man with a sallow complexion bowed his back and was weak when he spoke, but what he said gradually attracted some people.

At this time, anything related to food can attract the attention of the most people in the shortest time.

The big guy was silent for a moment, someone swallowed, and echoed in a low voice, "What you said seems to make sense..." As he spoke, he seemed to become more confident, and his voice became a lot tougher, but Still weak, "You are right, the city lord has always said that we are his people, so should he help us people now?"

Turning a blind eye to the angry or displeased eyes of the people around him, the sallow-faced person nodded vigorously, "You are so right, there is no reason why we have to starve, but some people can eat big fish and meat Throwing away the excess food is a crime!" He looked at the young man who agreed with him, and smiled, "I'm going to the city lord's mansion now, to ask the city lord, if he wants to give us some Food. I heard that the city lord has always been very kind and fair, and I believe I will get a perfect answer." He beckoned, "Come, come, anyone who wants to come with me."

Humans are essentially a social group animal, and a group of people who are easily affected by the herd effect. If the mind is not particularly firm and tough, it is easy to be infected by other people and lead to a crooked path.

The two walked out first, and someone was hesitating. When the hesitant expression of this person was seen by the people around him, the person who didn't intend to follow also began to hesitate.When there are many hesitant people, some people hesitate to follow. His thoughts may not be that complicated, he just wants to see the excitement, or something else.He took the first step, followed by a second person who also took the same step, more and more people began to waver, vacillating and choosing a path that most people chose in the constant trade-offs .

Before the mighty crowd arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Renn had already received the news, and he handed the note to Salcomo.Sarcomo took it over and glanced at it a little confused, his face suddenly turned livid, and a fine layer of oily sweat appeared on his forehead.He didn't even need to guess, he already knew that this must be a trick of those grain merchants.Among the things that the Chamber of Commerce has done in these years, there are not a few similar things that have happened.In order to compete with the rulers, the Chamber of Commerce often uses such forced wars to force the rulers to compromise.

It has to be said that this method is extremely effective.In this era of transportation cost constraints and high difficulty of transportation, the circulation of goods and goods is almost all completed by merchants.Whether it's Her Majesty the Queen, or a pariah in a rural place like Ortrenburg, they have long been accustomed to this situation.

What do you need?Find a merchant!
What is urgently needed?Find a merchant!
The dominance of merchants in purchasing, logistics, and sales in the economic field cannot be ignored. Once they decide to retaliate against a city or a person in power, they only need to cut off the business route.The raging populace will avenge them, all they have to do is watch and speed things up if necessary.

But Ortrenburg is no other city!

This is the city of Rennes!
Salcomo understood very well that if he offended other nobles, there might be a way to survive, but if he offended Rennes, there would be only one way to die.In the past six months, Ren has told everyone with the promise he fulfilled and all the facts that no enemy can escape his palm, no matter where the other party is.

"Viscount Wren, listen to my explanation..." Salcomo suddenly became anxious. This was related to the immediate interests of the chamber of commerce, and he could no longer just sit idly by.

As soon as Ren raised his hand, he stopped what he was going to say next.Ren's eyeballs turned slightly, and his black eyes turned to one side. After the corner of his eyes stayed on Salcomo's face for a while, he looked at the clear sky.It may be that the rain disaster some time ago turned all the clouds in the sky into rain. At this time, there is no cloud in the sky. The sky is as blue as a pure gem, which makes people feel Deep sinking in, relaxed and happy.

Silence was like a rope around Salcomo's neck. He was restless, but he didn't dare to disturb Ryan.The biggest hole in his hand is Prince Kant, but now Prince Kant can't control Ren at all, and even after being entrusted, Prince Kant is not as good as Ren in terms of status.

Just when Salcomo, who was slowly waiting for the verdict in this dull silence, was about to be unable to sit still, the corner of Ren's mouth twitched and he chuckled.He glanced at the tea table, took a sip from his teacup, "Salcomo, strictly speaking, you are also my relative. I have always believed that only those who share the same interests and long-term goals can stand together. ", he put down his teacup, and let out a long sigh of relief, "Only in this way can we go further, instead of spending more time and energy on each other because of some differences, you are slowing down, or I am making trouble for you. struggle between them."

"I'm very disappointed." Ren chuckled, "I'm still too naive. I thought that if I promised you businessmen enough benefits and benefits, and given you respect, you would understand my painstaking efforts and ideals, and would It is lovely to understand that profit is lovely, but there are more things that are more important than profit.” Ren leaned on the armrest of the chair and stood up, he took a few steps, his body stopped, and his whole body almost melted in the bright sunlight among.Both the sky and the sun have become his background, and he is even more dazzling than the sun.He turned his face sideways and looked at Salcomo with a sneer, "You businessmen, you don't know how to be afraid until you are about to die. Power, if it is not stained with blood, you will never know how to be in awe."

After all, he left without looking back.

To be honest, Ren was always disappointed with the business in Bell Province. This group of people took advantage of him and wanted to take advantage of him, and now they threatened him even more.These businessmen have been going so smoothly during this time, they may think that hooking up with a prince who has lost power can make Renn give in, this is simply the stupidest joke that has never been heard before.Perhaps this is also related to Rennes' brilliant economic methods. Merchants believe that Rennes is a city lord who obeys the rules and understands business and economic behavior, rather than a rude city lord who only knows how to do things.

Unfortunately, they got it wrong.

What I can give you, I can naturally take back.Not only do I want to get it back, but I also want to take everything away from you!
Salcomo looked at Ren's back, and felt a stronger and more aggressive momentum constantly expanding and spreading.His face was pale, and he knew very well that what the grain merchant did this time completely angered this young man.He hadn't even been this angry when he first arrived in Ortrenburg, surrounded by tigers.Salcomo didn't understand the wise but precise and simple words of the emperor's wrath and the death of a million corpses.

He only knew that those who offended nobles would often end badly.The redemption order is enough to make them act recklessly, regardless of the consequences.

What made him feel even more terrifying was Ren's attitude this time.He seems to have completely changed his attitude. If Rennes played with the Chamber of Commerce in Bell Province before, everyone worked out the rules of the game together.So now, he has already planned to abandon the Chamber of Commerce and completely raise the Chamber of Commerce to the core of the Bell economy.Salcomo was not worried that Rennes would collapse at all, because the location of Ortrenburg was so good that it directly blocked the trade route between the two countries.

It wasn't Ortrenburg, and it wasn't Ren who begged the merchants, but the merchants begged him.Whether it is import franchise, foreign trade or smuggling of contraband, there is no way to avoid this place or this person.

Salcomo sighed for a long time, how can these people be blinded by the profits in front of them?
Did they forget that this person executed tens of thousands of people not long ago! !
Could it be that cutting off other people's heads wouldn't hurt me?
Would you regret it if your head fell to the ground?

Salcomo's eyes quickly changed from sad to strong. He still has a chance, and the merchants of the Bell Provincial Chamber of Commerce still have a chance!
