When Zhao Chen heard these words, he wanted to laugh.
This group of people obviously regarded him as a fool and stayed there for two or three years. It would be a huge expense to just pack up the food.
The harvest is not good this year...
It’s a pity that they said it!
"Zhao Chen, these people treat us as fools..." Li Ruoshuang leaned into Zhao Chen's ear and whispered.
Zhao Chen smiled slightly and turned around and said:
"I also think I can make money, otherwise I wouldn't have purchased so much food!"
"The harvest this year is indeed not good, and the grain prices will definitely rise next year."
"Finally, I'll collect all your 600,000 stones of food!"
After hearing Zhao Chen's words, Zheng He and others showed happy smiles on their faces.
Six hundred thousand stones of grain, that is tens of thousands of stagnant coins.
There will be no less that fall into their hands.
It turns out that he is a big-hearted child. I don’t know where he got so much money, so he really collected 600,000 s of grain!
Zheng He felt secretly happy.
"Young Master, how about the price of this grain is four cents per dou of rice?" Zheng He looked at Zhao Chen with a smile.
He knew that the price of Zhao Chen collecting grain in Dongshi today was that.
But the quality of those foods is good.
But theirs, it's not necessarily true!
"That's fine, so I will charge you 600,000 stones of grain at a price of four cents."
"But you need your help to transport these grains to the warehouse, how about it?" Zhao Chen looked at Zheng He without even saying no to refuse.
"Haha, no problem. Tomorrow you will have someone lead the way, and then you will be assigned to keep the account."
"Sixty hundred thousand stones, no stone is missing!" Zheng He was filled with eyebrows and eyes happily.
He thought it would take a lot of talk today.
It would be so easy to think about it.
This kid is really stupid and has a lot of money.
After signing the contract, Zheng He asked Zhao Chen curiously: "Why is the young master buying so much food?"
"Eat!" Zhao Chen replied casually.
"Haha, my son has a good appetite!" Zheng He laughed and stuffed the contract into his pocket on his cuffs.
He bowed to Zhao Chen and left with everyone during the rainy night.
"Zhao Chen, these people look at us like fools!" Li Ruoshuang said with a frown.
She knew that Zhao Chen wanted to collect food, so she didn't say anything just now.
But the joke in Zheng He and his friends' eyes made Li Ruoshuang very uncomfortable.
"It's okay, just make money!" Zhao Chen smiled.
...
"Your Majesty, come to Lantian County late at night to see the granary, but because of what Zhao Chen said?" Wei Zheng and Li Shimin said in the imperial chariot.
Wei Zheng was used to riding on the imperial chariot together.
As the emperor, Li Shimin did a good job in respecting the wise and ruthless.
Wei Zheng was a little curious, and the night had fallen.
The emperor went to Lantian County, more than 20 miles away, to see the granary at night. This behavior was really abnormal.
"I'm a little worried!" Li Shimin said, tapping his fingers on his knees.
Li Shimin didn't think that Zhao Chen was saying anything special at first.
However, the rain suddenly started today.
And there seems to be no sign of stopping!
This made Li Shimin feel a little panicked.
Zhao Chen told him that if Chang'an City is short of food.
There is also the grain reserves in Chang'an City.
Li Shimin believed that Zhao Chen would not say these things for no reason.
I think he must know something.
However, according to Zhao Chen's temper, if he asked this, he would definitely not be able to ask anything.
Why not, go and see it yourself!
"Your Majesty, are you because of what Zhao Chen said the day before yesterday?" Wei Zheng understood and frowned slightly.
It is not a good thing to say that His Majesty the Emperor favors someone so much.
Besides, Zhao Chen is just a teenager.
How credible can his words be?
Do you want to advise Your Majesty?
"Wei Qing, what do you mean? Let's talk about it after you arrive at the granary!" Li Shimin glanced at Wei Zheng, as if he knew what he was thinking.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wei Zheng swallowed his words and frowned and listened to the sound of rain outside the car.
...
"I welcome your Majesty!"
In Lantian County, Li Shimin and Wei Zheng entered, and the county magistrate Zhao Ji brought officials from Lantian County to greet each other on both sides.
No one could understand why this emperor came to Lantian County in the middle of the night.
It still came in heavy rain.
What happened?
Zhao Ji felt a little nervous.
"Zhao Ji, I heard that you have been in Lantian for five years. Thank you for your hard work!" Li Shimin sat down and said to the Lantian County Magistrate.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Ji's ability to do things for His Majesty and for the people of the blue sky is Zhao Ji's blessing. How can you say hard work?" Zhao Ji said to Li Shimin with a smile on his face, and felt a little relaxed.
"I am very happy that you have such an attitude. I am here today because I want to see the grain warehouse in Lantian County."
"The Lantian County Grain Depot stores a total of 500,000 stones of grain, and these grains are all prepared for emergencies."
"This grain warehouse is very important. Zhao Ji, you lead the way with me. I will check it myself!" Li Shimin stood up and said to Zhao Ji.
Lantian County Magistrate Zhao Ji heard Li Shimin say he wanted to go to check the warehouse.
My mind was confused at that time.
A hint of panic flashed in his eyes, and he forced a smile out, and said, "Your Majesty, it's too late today and the rainstorm is continuous. Why would the tomorrow minister lead Your Majesty to investigate again!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, you are exhausted. Today I will rest in the county government office. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the grain warehouse with Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, the road outside is inconvenient now. Your Majesty has a noble dragon body. If you are sick, you will be punished for your death!"
The officials in Lantian County were now urging Li Shimin.
Li Shimin frowned slightly, and there was a hint of worry in his heart.
He tried a color towards Cheng Yaojin on the side.
"What do you want to do? Do you resist the order?" Cheng Yaojin shouted violently.
Qianniu Guard pulled out his sword next to him, and the atmosphere in the county yamen was suddenly tense.
"I don't dare!" Zhao Ji knelt on the ground with a pounce.
He is a small county magistrate, how dare he go against the emperor?
It's just this grain warehouse...
"Zhao Ji, what happened to this grain warehouse?" Li Shimin glanced over Zhao Ji and said lightly.
It was this glance that made Zhao Ji's heart tremble suddenly.
"Your Majesty, I deserve to die..."
Zhao Ji's words made Li Shimin's heart sank.
...
In the past two days, Yuan Tiangang has been worried.
After he had a fortune telling with His Majesty the night before, Yuan Tiangang's face was swollen.
Yuan Tiangang was scared.
Fortunately, the sky is clear today and the sun shines, and it is really a clear sky.
Yuan Tiangang was a little proud.
In the afternoon, the weather was a little hot.
Yuan Tiangang stood on the observatory, stroked a few strands of beards, with a hint of pride on his face.
Li Shimin stood aside and said nothing.
"Your Majesty, look, is the hexagrams I calculated by my divination quite accurate?"
Although I was slapped in the face the night before, today it was sunny all day.
This has already said everything.
To be honest, when Zhao Chen said that there will be a month of heavy rain in Chang'an City in two days, Li Shimin was also a little worried.
Otherwise, he would not have gone to Lantian County overnight the night before.
I wouldn't have discovered that the grain warehouse in Lantian County is about to be greedy.
Fortunately, the heavy rain finally stopped today.
Chapter completed!
