The recent, crazy surge in Shu State's grain prices was, for Chen Yi, nothing short of good news.
Or perhaps, it would be more accurate to say that from the moment he discovered the Ji State Trading Company, Lin Huai'an, and Liu Taofang were the "financiers" who hired Bright Moon Building to burn the summer grain in the Three Towns, he knew the rise in Shu State's grain prices was irreversible.
Even with Lin Huai'an now dead, the various grain merchants hadn't stopped their efforts.
Even with the public crying out in protest, even after their plan to frame the Xiao Family failed, they were still trying every method they could think of to drive up the price of grain.
All for the sake of a massive profit.
This alone revealed to Chen Yi the sheer greed of the people from the Ji State Trading Company.
But the greedy always get their comeuppance.
And if it didn't happen naturally, he wouldn't mind fanning the flames and giving them a spectacular "funeral."
