Chang Ning felt a headache as soon as he heard the figures and quickly said, "Great General, we have already obeyed your orders and purchased a lot of grain during the autumn harvest, and we also bought in a lot of cloth and medicinal materials before the end of the year. To buy more at this time…"
"Buy, it's all disaster relief material."
Chang Ning was hesitant and advised in a low voice, "Disasters may not come, I feel we are prepared enough now. If there's peace, which of course, I hope for peace, then what will we do with so much grain, cloth, and medicine? Buying now is buying at a high price."
