Mao Wenlong looked at Shang Kexi who was hurried into the house and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shang Kexi shook his head and said, "No negotiations have been reached."

Mao Wenlong frowned and said, "Why is this?"

"Don't mention that the talk was very good, but something went wrong in the middle, so I had to come back," Shang Kexi said helplessly.

When Mao Wenlong heard this, he immediately asked in a deep voice: "What the hell is going on!"

After Shang Kexi told the whole story, Mao Wenlong thought about it and said, "Can it be Yuan Chonghuan who noticed some surveillance person sent?"

Shang Kexi hesitated and said, "It shouldn't be possible. If it were Yuan Chonghuan's people, how could we get out so easily? We are in his territory after all!"

"Don't be careless. Notify there that the recent transaction will be cancelled. Let's avoid the limelight first. Let's accept all the things sent from Jiangnan first. As for when to give them money, we will delay it for a while."

"yes!"

Zhao Chengchu looked at Shang Kexi who had left and walked into the house and looked at Mao Wenlong with an unhappy face and said, "Sir, are you looking for me?"

"I have known each other for so long, I think I should be open and honest!"

Zhao Chengchu heard a tight heart in his heart. His identity was found by Mao Wenlong, but he still said calmly: "What does this mean by sir?"

Mao Wenlong said, "Did Yuan Chonghuan send you to monitor me by asking me?"

Zhao Chengchu felt relieved when he heard this and said, "Why did you say this by sir?"

After Mao Wenlong talked about the failure of the transaction, he stared at Zhao Chengchu.

"Sir, don't you think it's absurd?" Zhao Chengchu was a little amused and crying. He was the one who took the blame this time.

"Hmph, absurd? If it weren't for someone's leak, my food would have been shipped away long ago. How could it be like this now?" Mao Wenlong said angrily.

Zhao Chengchu smiled and said, "I think adults should be happy."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"Sir, now that the Jurchens have just been defeated, they will definitely be seriously injured. If they don't get the supplies from the adults, their lives will definitely be difficult. This is a good opportunity for the adults to raise prices!"

Mao Wenlong's eyes lit up when he heard this, which made Zhao Chengchu leave.

After leaving Mao's mansion, Zhao Chengchu walked halfway through a figure gently brushing towards him. Zhao Chengchu held the letters he sent to him tightly and returned to a house where Mao Wenlong asked him to move in.

He knew that he was still under Mao Wenlong's surveillance, so he could only use some special means to contact Zhu Yuanzhang. He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's letter to him and smiled on his face.

The letter stated that the 20,000 remaining soldiers he had collected were already under Zhu Yuanzhang. Looking at the content behind Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhao Chengchu fell into deep thought.

Mao Wenlong sneered when he heard his subordinates reporting Zhao Chengchu's movements to him: "I knew he would not be so honest, so I won't touch him for the time being!"

The night was getting deeper, and the lights were still on in the government office in Lulong County, and teams of soldiers were still carrying things to the carriage. Suddenly, one of them squirmed and threw the sack on his shoulder to the ground.

When the face changed, it was rustling and quickly lifted it up and placed it on the carriage.

After working hard in the middle of the night, the soldiers brought all their belongings onto the carriage. A total of fifteen carriages began to walk towards the city gate under the night. As Yuan Chonghuan's personal soldiers were always around the carriage.

After the guards at the city gate displayed Yuan Chonghuan's handwritten book, the soldiers immediately opened the city gate and put the carriage out.

The next morning

Yuan Chonghuan looked at the exhausted guard and said, "Are you sent them away?"

"yes!"

After hearing this, Yuan Chonghuan nodded and said, "Fortunately, you go down!"

Looking at the departing guard, he smiled on his face. He raised a 20% price this time, and this time he could earn at least 100,000 taels of silver in addition to the money given to the seller.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw the person in front of him and asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure it's food and silk?"

"Subordinate!"

Listening to his decisive voice, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said, "Go down, I will remember you this time."

"Train for adults!"

Zhu Yuanzhang threw out a purse and made a sound of metal collision and said, "This is a reward for you!"

"Thank you!"

Yan Ning walked in and said, "I have contacted Zhao Chengchu, I'll go and lie down in person!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "Remember, you must not let him doubt your identity!"

"Don't worry!"

"Maybe you can use Ezhe's identity!" Zhu Yuanzhang reminded.

"knew!"

Dongjiang

Mao Wenlong was surprised to hear the Jurchens cancel the transaction and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

Shang Kexi saw the angry Mao Wenlong immediately lowered his head and said, "All the subordinates are not doing well, please punish them!"

"Get up!"

Mao Wenlong said, "What's going on? Have you found out?"

Shang Kexi nodded and said, "I heard that the Mongolians recently obtained a batch of supplies and sold them to the Jurchens. In addition, the adults raised 20% of the price, so the Jurchens canceled the transaction."

Mao Wenlong couldn't help but feel a little regretful when he heard this. He was not greedy and swallowed an elephant!

"If this batch of goods is smashed into our hands, the people in Jiangnan would like to eat us alive!"

Shang Kexi heard the silence for a moment and said carefully: "Sir, a Mongolian came to his subordinates not long ago to take over our goods, but that's the price."

After hearing this, Mao Wenlong knew that the price might be unsatisfactory and said, "How much is it?"

"It's 20% less than the price you set!"

Mao Wenlong thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we talk to them?"

Shang Kexi hesitated for a moment when he heard this, saying, "Sir, they are 20% less than the original price."

"What?" Mao Wenlong sneered after hearing this: "I'm going to be anxious to take off my hands and eat the big guys, so no talk!"

The two of them then fell into silence, and suddenly a small man walked into the room and said, "Sir, the Korean envoy of the Li family has been sent!"

Mao Wenlong was a little puzzled what to send envoys at this time?

"Please!"

"yes!"

Not long after, a slightly thin middle-aged man walked into Mao’s mansion and knelt down at Mao Wenlong and said, “See Mr. Mao!”

"I ask you to get up, but I don't know what's going on?"

The Korean envoy said with a look of distress: "I am asking for a general to meet with the general in my king. I hope that the general will be able to be lenient for one year this year. It is really difficult for the people to get the needs of your army!"

After hearing this, Mao Wenlong saw the envoy knowing that no matter how hard he forced him, he had no choice but to say helplessly: "My country in heaven should be compassionate to the common people. Since this is the case, I will find a way to pay this year's food and salary."

When the envoy heard this, he burst into tears and kept kneeling to thank him. He ordered someone to send him out. Mao Wenlong lamented, "Go and tell them, I will talk to them in person."

"grown ups!"

Shang Kexi was a little depressed when she heard this.

"Go!"
