Hua Ruge slept until the afternoon of the second day, when he woke up. After he walked out of his room, a servant said: "State Advisor, Eunuch Li just came to pass down the order."

"Say what?" Hua Ruge asked as he washed his face.

"His Majesty wants you to go to the royal study after you wake up." The maidservant conveyed the message.

Hua Ruge nodded: "Understood."

"State Advisor, His Majesty treats you so well. He didn't even let us wake you up. The maidservant said from the side.

Hua Ruge's character was easy-going, after living with her for two days, the servant girl dared to say anything.

"He knows I don't usually get up early." Hua Ruge stretched his back and said: "Give me a change of clothes, I'll enter the palace."

"You don't need breakfast?"

In the past, he never stopped for a single meal.

"It's almost time for lunch, I'm going to the palace to try my luck." Hua Ruge calculated.

This was the first time she had heard of someone who would dare to rush into the palace to eat and drink.

Hua Ruge changed into the autumn State Grandmaster attire. The white satin was embroidered with a blue water orchid, and the outside was covered with a light muslin, making it look very elegant.

When she arrived at the Imperial Palace, she ordered the dark guard commander who was kneeling down at the side while eating lunch with Jun Tianxia.

"Take your men and disperse them to all the cities in the Great Zhou. You must ensure that every city has a person, and you must also guarantee that the information will be transmitted quickly, right?"

The hidden guard cupped his fists and said, "I can do it when I return to the State Advisor."

"That's good. Your team has fifty million spirit stones. The first thing you need to do is to buy the local food for me. Do you understand how many you need?" Hua Ruge said again.

"Understood." The guard nodded.

Hua Ruge waved his hand: "Go."

"This humble official will take his leave."

After the guard left, Hua Ruge picked up a chicken leg and said while eating, "It's about to start."

"Using tea in place of wine, I wish us victory at the start." Jun Tianxia picked up a teacup beside him.

Hua Ruge nodded his head in agreement, then said: "There's no rush, you can drink with me when it's time."

"No problem." Jun Tianxia drank the tea by himself.

In the following period of time, Hua Ruge was still at the Da Yu Imperial City, receiving the news that came from the Great Zhou Empire.

After she had given her orders, the hidden guards of Da Yu began to wantonly purchase and stock up on food throughout the Great Zhou Empire. This led to a shortage of food, and once something became a scarce resource, the price would inevitably rise.

Some merchants saw the business opportunity and also wanted to hoard grain to earn a fortune. This caused the price of grain to skyrocket, and in just ten days, it had risen to five times its previous price.

And he was still in high school.

This time, the common folk panicked and began to rush to buy the food sold on the market. Every time there was a store that sold rice, it would be snatched away.

In just three days, the price of food had doubled to ten times the market price. During this time, many merchants had sold all the food they had hoarded and earned a large amount of Spirit Stones.

However, most of them were still in his hands, waiting for the price to continue to rise.

However, at this time, a lot of food suddenly poured into the market, greatly alleviating the shortage of food. The panic of the people was gone, and the price of food also decreased at an unbelievable rate.2

Within two days, the grain prices had fallen back to their original prices, and they were so fast that those merchants who were hoarding the grain at a high price didn't even have the time to make a move, which was a huge loss for them.

With this mess, more than half of the grain merchants were unable to sell their rice and flour, and went bankrupt along with it.

Although the citizens were no longer panicking, they still spent real spirit stones to buy the high price food and suffered losses.

Only a small number of merchants who had sold in advance were able to make a fortune in one night.

But most of the spirit stones still flowed into the biggest capitalist, which was Hua Ruge's waist pouch.

Buying at a low price and selling at a high price, in a short span of ten days, she managed to increase the amount of spirit stones she invested by five times, earning her a lot.

However, her goal was not only to make money, but also to buy beans as much as she could after harvesting the grains. She also invested a huge amount of spirit stones into the Great Zhou to be the biggest manipulator behind the scenes.

The action was soon effective, as the price of beans grew rapidly on the market, and the oil soared after them, as people squeezed soy oil out of beans, which were essential to life.

Their participation caused the price of the beans to skyrocket very quickly, and with the help of the experience gained from the previous price payments, they felt that they could not hold back for too long. When the price of the beans had risen to five times, they began to sell them off.

The people who threw the beans made a profit, but the profit was limited. Many of them were glad that they didn't throw them, because the price of beans was still rising.

Many of them couldn't take it anymore and began to sell the beans in their hands. They had earned double the profit compared to the ones they had previously earned.

As a result, they regretted selling it out earlier.

The price of beans had risen to an alarming level. The soy oil shop could not afford to close its doors, but peanut oil, sesame oil and the like were all popular in the small industry from before.

However, the small industries were not the mainstream. They would not be able to produce that much oil in a short period of time. Beans were still a necessity.

Right now, the price of beans on the market was comparable to golden beans. Those merchants holding the beans were extremely nervous every day, but they felt that it was not the time to make a move yet.

But just as they were about to make a move, Hua Ruge suddenly moved, she ordered them to throw all the beans in their hands, and the beans immediately became worthless.

The ones waiting at the back, who had the opportunity to be thrown out with Hua Ruge, had more profits than the other people combined.

Not everyone had such good luck. Some didn't even make it in time, or they simply threw their money at others they didn't sell. They tasted the days from heaven to hell.

Without a doubt, the biggest winner this time was still Hua Ruge. She had the most capital, so she could naturally roam the market as she pleased.

After that, she attacked the cloth in the market, and the merchants followed her lead.

Although more people had lost money in the previous two attempts, there were still quite a few people who had gotten rich overnight, so there were still a lot of people following them. People who are in the spectator's shoes tend to think that once the main character is in their shoes, they won't be so stupid.

As it turned out, in this game, no one could see the situation clearly.

At first, the price of cloth rose, then it dropped. There were still people who earned a lot. However, there were even more people who couldn't wear their pants down.

The game continued, and a large amount of spirit stones flowed into the Da Yu every day in the Great Zhou.

However, the officials of the Great Zhou Empire did not notice it clearly. They were completely unaware of the economy. They only knew that there was a lot of trading on the market, and the tax collected was a good thing.
