"Then what should we do next?"

"The Great Zhou Empire's economy has already collapsed. Even if they can't recover in a few decades, it would be useless even if they found out." Hua Ruge glanced at her and said: "My writing is ugly, help me write orders over there."

"Alright." Lan Bing'er prepared pen and paper.

"Put the net away." Hua Ruge faintly spat out these two words.

Lan Bing'er was startled, then suddenly said: "Big sister, you mean to say, you want to purchase Frigid Metal on a large scale?"

Hua Ruge had made the dark guards pay attention to her purchase of Steel when she first arrived. The dark guards should already have been prepared by now, with a single order from her, half of the cold iron in the entire Zhou Dynasty would fall into her hands.

Hua Ruge nodded: "Since we have finished eating the appetizers, it's about time for us to have a big meal."

Lan Bing'er wrote it down obediently.

Hua Ruge touched his stomach and said, "You're saying that I'm hungry, it's time to eat lunch."

"Elder sister, it's in the morning. You only ate there in the morning." Lan Bing'er couldn't help but remind her.

"Really?" Maybe I just consumed too much energy on the battlefield, and my body is weak. " Hua Ruge found an excuse for himself, and then said to the servant: "Tell the kitchen to make lunch."

Lan Bing'er did not have the chance to see this either, as this was simply too edible.

Two days later, the people of Zhou discovered that the price of Frost Iron had doubled in just two days.

The officials were just worrying about not catching the person who was messing up the market when they had an idea. They started to find out who had bought the Frost Iron, but there were still so many people around that they couldn't find anyone.

They waited for another two days, but the price of the Frost Iron in the market fluctuated very little. It was impossible to tell that someone was controlling it.

This way, the merchants were ready to make a move. After all, the government had already intervened, so they should not cause any more trouble. However, they were afraid of being cheated previously, so they didn't dare to buy too much now. They just bought a bit each and waited for the price to rise before throwing it again.

Although their purchases were small, there were still a lot of people. As a result, the price of the Frost Iron had doubled from its current level and the market had become a complete mess.

Because there were too many people joining, and there were people buying and selling every day, it was very difficult to find out who was the culprit behind this.

Furthermore, Hua Ruge operated together in all of the cities of the Great Zhou, and although the volume of trading in each city wasn't very large, the total amount he bought and sold was extremely terrifying.

The officials were in a panic because they did not have the experience to deal with this. They had no way to do anything about it.

When the price of the Frost Iron rose to five times its original price, the dark guard suddenly made his move. Through the channels that were prepared beforehand, he sold large quantities of the Frost Iron, causing the price of the Frost Iron to drop.

As a result, the price of the Frost Iron dropped very quickly. Within five days, the price of the Frost Iron had dropped by 20%.

Due to the longer period of the fall, most of the merchants had time to throw out their Frigid Metal to earn more.

The officials could not catch anything, but after observing the price fluctuation this time, they felt that this kind of monitoring had at least worked. They were no longer as nervous as they were before, and were no longer as sharp.

However, just when everyone thought that the Frost Iron was finished, the price of the Frost Iron once again rose. It slowly rose from 20% low to flat, and then continued to grow.

After tasting the sweetness from last time, the merchants began to hoard large quantities of goods. Those that did not have money to borrow also hoarded goods, waiting to make a huge profit.

With their addition, the price of the Frost Iron quickly rose to its previous peak in just a few days. At this time, many people began to throw it away, making a huge profit.

However, those that were left behind were quickly bought and the Frigid Iron on the market was becoming less and less. The goods that were left behind in the hands of the merchants were becoming more and more precious, causing them to be even more reluctant to leave.

Although he couldn't bear to do so, he had already contacted the route to ship the goods. He was prepared to sell all of the goods in his hands at the very beginning with a lower price.

As expected, when the market was not able to see the cold iron, the price of the cold iron had soared twenty times. After that, a large amount of cold iron had flowed into the market and the price of the cold iron had plummeted.

This time, the merchants were smarter. They threw it at Hua Ruge at the same time, as they competed in terms of speed.0

Therefore, in just three short days, there were ten times more Frigid Iron than usual on the market. Under this situation, the price of Frigid Iron naturally plummeted to half of its original market price.

The merchants who had already made their moves were beating their chests and stomping their feet, regretting that they had missed the opportunity to make a fortune.

Seeing that the economy was recovering bit by bit, the officials and the emperor of the Great Zhou Empire heaved a sigh of relief. They were thankful that they discovered the news early, otherwise their country would have been defeated.

When the news from here reached Da Yu, Hua Ruge was strolling leisurely on the street. Jun Tianxia and Lan Bing'er arrived at her residence at the same time but they did not see anyone.

The two of them wanted to investigate, but Hua Ruge was not there.

Jun Tianxia could only send someone to look.

When he returned, he saw the Little Marten on Hua Ruge's shoulder with a candied fruit in hand for him to eat, while she was holding a gift box for Lan Bing'er, saying that she had bought a wedding present for him. In the end, she wasn't able to get a present, so she bought a box for him to eat later.

"Why did all of you come together? Why are you looking for me?" Hua Ruge sat down and asked.

Lan Bing'er handed over the letter that was delivered by the secret guard. Hua Ruge scanned it with his divine sense and said: "It's not bad, it's not too far from what I expected."

"Sister, why did you let those merchants get lucky this time?" Lan Bing'er asked in confusion.

Hua Ruge sat down and asked: "What do you mean?"

"If you throw out all the cold iron in your hand and don't leave half of it behind, those merchants will have their cold iron smashed into their hands. That way, their economy will completely collapse." Lan Bing'er said.

It was an absolutely good opportunity. With the channels Hua Ruge had laid in the past, he could definitely throw out the Frost Iron in his hands in one fell swoop, trapping all the merchants there. The money he owed them could not even be repaid in ten lifetimes.

But Hua Ruge kept half of it, allowing the market space to absorb the Frigid Metal from the merchants. He had only earned some money, and the amount of Coldsteel in his hands was still a lot of money.

"Not bad, you learned very quickly." Hua Ruge nodded, then looked at the two of them and said: "I already said, this is only the beginning, what I want to do is not to earn money, but to overthrow the empire."

Now that the Zhou Empire's economy was in such a good mood, the speculators had made a huge fortune. The other merchants and even the commoners had all become lively. Since money was so easy to earn, what business was there to run and what did they have to do?

Humans were like this. Once they saw a shortcut, it would be difficult to steadily walk on it.
