Chapter 48: The Cornucopia of Calamity

Although Changsun Wuji was quite embarrassed when facing Yuchi Gong, Yuchi Gong knew what he thought of Tao Jin. However, when he said that he was still confident in facing Tao Jin, the King of Qin was a wise ruler, and Yuchi Gong was under the command of the King of Qin, so he felt that as long as he asked Tao Jin to help, Tao Jin would definitely not refuse.

After all, this is a good opportunity. What a rare opportunity for a businessman to please the King of Qin.

Changsun Wugui and Changsun Wuji had similar ideas. They felt that the eldest son and grandson in the Tao Mansion should have some say, so they did not understand the specific situation of the Tao Mansion, so they asked Changsun Wuji to go with Yuchi Gong.

Yuchi Gong didn't know what Changsun Wuji and the others thought at this time. If he knew, he would have to laugh out loud. Because he knew Tao Jin's situation the most.

When he arrived at the courtyard where Tao Jin lived, Yuchi Gong first shouted: "Brother, I'm here again!" Tao Jin has been thinking about the four words "Ke Leaking Qing Bu" these days. He suddenly heard the roar and was stunned. When he heard it carefully, he found that it was his sworn brother, so he hurriedly came out.

When Yuchi Gong saw Tao Jin coming out, he immediately laughed and said, "It can be seen that you miss me, just a sound, you came out!" As he said that, he began to laugh.

Because Changsun Wuji came this time, he had something to ask Tao Jin for, so he didn't have a cold face, so his face was considered gentle.

Tao Jin is used to looking at people's faces in modern times. At this time, seeing that Changsun Wuji changed his previous attitude, he felt a little alert. He led Yuchi Gong and Changsun Wuji into the courtyard. All the people were left to sit down. Tao Jin smiled and said, "Brother, why are you free to come here today?"

Although Yuchi Gong wanted to ask Tao Jin about Man'er, the King of Qin had instructed that this matter should be carried out secretly, so it was difficult to speak up, just said, "I've been very bored these days, so I'll come here to disperse!"

Changsun Wuji thought that Yuchi Gong would come to find Tao Jin so that he could get some food in the Tao Mansion, so he didn't mention it along the way. He heard Yuchi Gong's words and frowned and said, "The situation is still unstable now. If there are no soldiers who fight, there is no peaceful life in Chang'an!"

Tao Jin was stunned and thought to himself: What does it mean to say this? But after thinking about it, Tao Jin still smiled and said, "The weather is getting dryer and I still have some good wine in there. Why don't you let me bring it out so that my brother can relieve the heat!"

When Yuchi Gong heard that there was a good wine, he immediately said, "I'll go with you to get it. Don't be stingy! Brother, wait for us!"

Changsun Wuji thought that Yuchi Gong had discussed with Tao Jin secretly, and he didn't stop him. He just nodded. Yuchi Gong pulled Tao Jin and dodged to the other end of the yard and said, "Do you have any news about the man I sent to the last time?"

Tao Jin shook his head and said, "I have never seen it before. If I had seen it, how could I hide it from you, brother!"

"It's good, but the King of Qin's face is ugly again. This time, Changsun Wuji and I came to raise food. When we encountered trouble, you should be careful and don't let someone take you to do it as a cushion!" After Yuchi Gong asked, he instructed Tao Jin.

Tao Jin nodded, then took out his own green bamboo wine. Yuchi Gong saw the green wine and smelled it, and smiled and said, "You always have good things here!" As he said that, Tao Jin returned to Changsun Wuji.

Although the scenery in the mountains and fields is beautiful, Changsun Wuji did not have the intention to appreciate it. When he saw Tao Jin and the others come back, he hurriedly gave Yuchi Gong a wink. Seeing that Yuchi Gong had no reaction, he was suspicious and asked tentatively: "Tao Jin, are you a merchant willing to serve the country?"

Tao Jin slowly poured the wine into the bowl, and then said, "Scholars, farmers, industrialists and commerce, I am the last one. I'm afraid I'm powerless!" Tao Jin remembered what Yuchi Gong said to him, so when Changsun Wuji asked about it, he immediately said such words.

Changsun Wuji was also very angry when he followed Li Shimin's battles. Seeing Tao Jin say this, he immediately slapped the table and shouted: "If you want to serve, you will look down on you!"

Tao Jin really didn't expect that the Lord who came to ask for help had such a face. He immediately turned gloomy and said, "Tao Jin is a merchant, really can't stand the look of an adult!"

After hearing this, Yuchi Gong was so angry that he said in his heart: Changsun Wuji, you are so good at pretending! What do you mean? Should I not be able to get out of the stage for my brother, or should I give it to me? So his face stopped being depressed.

Changsun Wuji thought that as soon as he got angry, Tao Jin would definitely soften. Unexpectedly, he pushed up, so he looked at Yuchi Gong like a request for help.

Yuchi Gong ignored him, but Tao Jin understood. What ability does he have to make people ask for this? I think he knew that he was the young master of the Tao Mansion. After all, not everyone knew that he was expelled from the Tao Mansion. The second wife was afraid that people would talk, and she would not spread it. So before Yuchi Gong could speak, Tao Jin said, "Tao Jin is now intent, and he is powerless. Since he was expelled from the Tao family, Tao Jin had to earn a bite of food at this time!"

As soon as Tao Jin said this, Changsun Wuji's face immediately changed. He shouted in surprise: "What, you were expelled from the Tao Mansion?"

"It's hard to say that Tao Jin is incompetent and has no choice!" Tao Jin knew that he said this, which would eliminate Changsun Wuji's thoughts, so he said sadly, with the purpose of making Changsun Wuji feel that he is also a weak person. He was just exposed to his scars, so he spoke inappropriately.

But at this time, Changsun Wuji had the intention to deal with Tao Jin's twists and turns. He was full of thought: It's over, this road is not working!

In fact, even Tao Jin was still the young master of the Tao Mansion, and Changsun Wuji's idea was useless, because after Master Tao left, everything in the mansion had gradually been controlled by Tao Ran and the second wife.

Not to mention that Tao Jin had no way to be the head of the Tao family, even if there was a way, he didn't want to help Changsun Wuji, who looked down on him everywhere.

Without saying a word, Changsun Wuji pulled Yuchi Gong away from the table, and he still had the intention to drink. He wanted to go and tell his sister quickly that this road would not work, so he could think of some other solutions.

Changsun Wuji and Yuchi Gong had just entered the Qin Palace, and Changsun Wugui came over there. Seeing Changsun Wuji's appearance, Changsun Wugui knew that this matter had not been completed.

He briefly explained Tao Jin's situation to Changsun Wugui. Changsun Wugui sighed and said, "Is this God's will not be done? Today, all the sirs have submitted a memorial again, let's see the situation!" As he said that, he also looked sad.

At this time, Changsun Wuji didn't know that the food in the Tao Mansion had been targeted by the King of Qi long ago, and Tao Ran, the head of the Tao Mansion, was also invited into the mansion by the King of Qi.

Although King Qi pretended to be sick and hid in the mansion, he didn't want to let go of the errand of the grain raising officer because this was a fat man! Who knows how much grain was raised and how much money was used? After the world is settled in the future, there will be more places to use the money!

Tao Ran was a little surprised that he was invited by the King of Qi. Although he had contact with him before, he was behind the scenes, just kicking Tao Jin with the King of Qi. Tao Ran didn't expect that the King of Qi would think of him one day.

The Qi Palace was built quite luxuriously, but it was a new house after all, so it was not as big as the Tao Palace. After Tao Ran entered the Qi Palace, he just looked at it for a few times and lost interest. Tao Ran's reactions were all seen by Li Yuanji, so he believed Xiangxue's words even more.

However, this fat meat cannot be swallowed in one bite. Li Yuanji took his thoughts and looked at Tao Ran in front of him, and had an idea in his mind.

When Tao Ran saw Li Yuanji, he bowed a long time. Li Yuanji asked someone to help him and gave him a seat. After a few simple conversations, Li Yuanji spoke, "I've come to you today, so I have something to ask for!"

"I dare not!" Li Yuanji was the famous demon king of the world. When he asked him to ask for help, Tao Ran's heart broke out in a cold sweat and said immediately.

"Don't panic, I just want to buy some food from you!" Li Yuanji rarely dealt with people like Tao Ran. If it weren't for what Xiangxue said, he wouldn't be too lazy to see this so-called richest household in Chang'an.

After hearing Li Yuanji's words, Tao Ran breathed a sigh of relief. The Tao family was not afraid of doing business. But then Li Yuanji's words made Tao Ran sweat again: "I heard that someone is also collecting grain. Please help me collect all the grains. Remember to collect them all!" Li Yuanji said again in a silence.

"I'm afraid it's inconvenient! After all, this rich family in Chang'an is not just the Tao family!" Tao Ran's first reaction was to refuse. Because collecting grain is a big deal, and it is to offend people. Li Yuanji asked him to collect it. It's because he was afraid of offending people. How could he not be afraid? What's more, if he collects grain, the food on the market will definitely be expensive. If someone knows that he will be beaten to death!

"Is that so? I heard that you bought a shop with a treasure pot some time ago! My father likes Qiguo the most. If he knew, he would have to look for it!" Li Yuanji did not say anything to force Tao Ran, but just said Li Yuan's hobbies.

Tao Ran secretly complained in his heart that the treasure pot was a buzzing incident at the beginning, but there were some treasure pots there, and those were just Tao Jin's tricks. And buying the house himself was just for the key to the so-called treasure house, so he paid a high price, and now he is bitten here.
