    For Zhuge Liang, he certainly did not want to kill people if possible, because it would easily offend the nobles and people of Yizhou, but the development of the situation made it impossible for Zhuge Liang to become a butcher.

    Liu Bei has just captured Yizhou. If there are no problems, Liu Bei just needs to follow the steps and spend some time to win over the people of Yizhou.

    After all, Liu Bei has a good way of winning people's hearts.

    But the bad thing is that Liu Zhe is here.

    No one dares to underestimate Liu Zhe. If Liu Zhe is allowed to attack Yizhou, with Liu Zhe's strength, Yizhou will fall into Liu Zhe's hands sooner or later.

    Therefore, Liu Bei had to take action to deal with Liu Zhe.

    In order to prevent those with different intentions from dragging Liu Bei back, Zhuge Liang had to raise his knife and clean up these people.

    At the same time, it was also used to establish Liu Bei's authority so that people in Yizhou would not dare to rebel at will.

    This is not a solution within a solution.

    In the last rebellion, many people were nobles and officials from Yizhou and had great influence in Yizhou.

    If Zhuge Liang hadn¡¯t deliberately suppressed them, many people might not have rebelled, but Zhuge Liang did this anyway.

    Zhuge Liang did not dare to take risks. If those disloyal people did not join the rebellion and instead colluded with Liu Zhe, Liu Bei would be defeated.

    Raising a butcher's knife against these people will affect his reputation and be detrimental to his future career, but Zhuge Liang did not hesitate. Liu Bei trusted him enough to do things for Liu Bei like this.

    This is Zhuge Liang¡¯s own style of doing things.

    Zhuge Liang was thinking about things while walking.

    Suddenly Zhuge Liang found someone queuing in front of him. The queue was very long, which made Zhuge Liang curious.

    "What's in front of you?" Zhuge Liang asked.

    Dong He shook his head. Although he was an official from Chengdu, he couldn't be familiar with all the streets in Chengdu.

    ¡°Let¡¯s go and have a look.¡±

    Zhuge Liang smiled and said to Dong He, "If you encounter such a thing when you go out, go and have a look."

    When Zhuge Liang and Dong He approached, they discovered that it was a rice shop, and people were queuing up to buy rice.

    "Why are there so many people selling rice?" Zhuge Liang was surprised.

    Generally speaking, there won¡¯t be many people selling rice in rice shops, at least there won¡¯t be long lines to sell rice like now.

    Dong He's face was a little solemn. As the commander of Chengdu, he is also responsible if Chengdu is short of food.

    "Go and ask clearly."

    Zhuge Liang summoned a subordinate and asked him to ask for details.  But before his men could ask, there was a commotion among the people in line.

    At first, people were talking in low voices, and gradually, anger showed on their faces.

    "Why did the price increase again?"

    "Yes, the price was raised just yesterday, and it's raised again today. Are you going to let people live?"

    "Profiteer, this damn profiteer"

    "Price reduction, we must reduce price, otherwise we will not agree"

    Angry people stopped lining up and gathered at the entrance of Mipu to protest loudly.

    "What's the fuss about?"

    Soon, a potbellied owner who looked like a rice shop appeared. After he came out, he shouted loudly, "This is the price now. If you want to buy it, you can get out. If you don't buy it, get out. It will hinder my business."

    ¡°Why is the price increasing again?¡± Some people shouted loudly.

    "Why?"

    The boss smiled and said: "This shop belongs to me. Sir, if I want to raise the price, I can raise the price. There is not much food in Chengdu now. Sir, I kindly bring some food to sell. What's the matter with raising the price?"  ?¡±

    ¡°Don¡¯t even think about causing trouble here.¡±

    The boss threatened, "Chengdu now belongs to the King of Chu, and Prime Minister Zhuge is in charge. If you dare to cause trouble, you will be punished by the Prime Minister. Don't blame me."

    It must be said that the boss's threat was very effective. After hearing what the Mipu boss said, the people gathered around did not dare to mess around. In addition to shouting a few words, they had to disperse in the end.

    Of course, some people continued to line up to buy rice, some stared at the rice shop angrily, and some left disappointed.

    The people dispersed, and Zhuge Liang stopped asking his men what was going on. He directly stopped one person and asked, "May I ask, father-in-law, what happened here?"

    The person Zhuge Liang intercepted was an old man over fifty years old. He took a look at Zhuge Liang and Dong He and saw that their appearance and demeanor were not ordinary people. He did not hide it and was angrilyHe said, "These profiteers have raised the price of rice again."

    "Has the price of rice increased?"

    Zhuge Liang glanced at Dong He in surprise. Dong He's expression was very solemn. Dong He did not know this news and did not tell Zhuge Liang.

    "you do not say."

    The old man seemed to be pouring out his bitterness to Zhuge Liang: "This is the fifth price increase this month. I used to be able to buy ten days' worth of rice, but now I can only buy half a day's worth of rice."

    "So expensive?" Zhuge Liang was shocked and his expression became serious.

    The problem revealed in this is a big problem.

    "How could it be?" Zhuge Liang asked again.

    "Isn't it because of the war? We are fighting every day, and all the edible rice grains are used to fight. How much rice grains can we ordinary people have enough to eat?"

    When Zhuge Liang heard this, his expression suddenly changed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
