Chapter 43: Being Calculated

However, some news came from Xiao Wu. According to the news from Xiao Wu, Zhu Guo had a very average impression of Lin Dong, so he did not agree to his request for a Qianhu officer.

Somehow this matter reached the ears of the eunuch Yang Ze. The eunuch was very happy when he heard about it and said that as long as Wu Yue was willing to marry him, he promised to give Lin Dong a military position as a Qianhu officer.

This made the little dancing girl very embarrassed. After all, although Yang Ze was powerful, he was still just a eunuch. If she followed him, she would be a widow. Besides, her younger brother was still in the hands of Zhu Guoxiang.

Although he doesn't have a good impression of Zhu Guoxiang, he is obviously a little stronger than Yang Ze.

Lin Dong didn't understand Wu Yue's thoughts, so he ran out day by day. In addition to surveying the route and terrain, he also went to the church he had visited before every day, hoping to meet the foreign monk who could cure diseases.

.

Unfortunately, things went against expectations. Lin Dong went there several times without encountering him. In the blink of an eye, it was the thirteenth day of the first lunar month. As soon as Lin Dong returned to the ship, the guard came to report that Li Da had returned.

Lin Dong immediately called him in and inquired about the situation carefully.

According to what Li Da said, he had gained a lot this time. He hired more than ten Guangda ships. If he added the ships he brought from Andong County, it should not be a problem to transport more than 200,000 tons of grain.

In addition, he also found many small boats for easy use. What pleased Lin Dong the most was that Li Da had already found all the boats hundreds of miles away, which was very beneficial to what Lin Dong was going to do.

Lin Dong was very satisfied with this. Li Da was indeed very transparent. Although he didn't say what he wanted to do, he could think of things ahead.

Lin Dong estimated that with these ships and the thousands of refugees gathered by Cheng San, it should not be a problem to move even hundreds of thousands of loads of food to the ship so close to the dock overnight.

Thinking of this, Lin Dong couldn't help but secretly get excited. If everything went well, he would soon be able to get a large sum of military resources. Then why worry about the big thing happening?

"Li Da, you leave the city immediately and order Black Bear to lead the army into the city tomorrow morning, and enter the predetermined locations according to the arrangements. No one is allowed to wear armor. In addition, you arrange dozens of people to mix in with the traffickers and lackeys, ready to cause chaos at any time.

"

"Sir, what are you doing?"

"Don't worry about it. You will know when the time comes." Lin Dong waved his hand and said.

Although Li Da was his confidant, he didn't want Chuang Jun to know about his foresight before he came in.

The next morning, Lin Dong took Cheng San out. As agreed, they would go to Sifang Pavilion to get food today.

The two of them arrived at the place quickly. At this time, the boss of Sifang Pavilion had been waiting at the door. When he saw Lin Dong coming in, he smiled and greeted him: "Sir, you are really a trustworthy person."

"How is it? Is the food I want ready?"

"You can rest assured, sir." The boss said and waved his hand, and saw a waiter peeling off a piece of linen cloth in the hall, revealing large sacks.

Lin Dong stepped forward to check it out, and found that it was indeed good food.

He didn't know how to write, so he immediately paid the money, and then asked Cheng San to find the workers he had hired before and transport the grains one by one to the big ship.

These workers were all refugees from other places. Some of them had been hungry for several meals and were worried about finding work and food. When Cheng San said that there was work available, he followed them without even thinking.

Hundreds of people worked together, and more than two thousand loads of grain were transported to the ship in less than half an hour.

Lin Dong did not treat these people badly. He ordered people to set up a large pot and cook several large pots of rice so that everyone could eat.

These people had been very hungry for a long time. Now that they heard that they could be fed, they were very happy and kept asking Cheng San if he wanted more workers.

Lin Dong had already ordered Cheng San to keep these workers until the next day.

Cheng San naturally did not dare to disobey the order, and immediately explained Lin Dong's intention, and told these refugees that our general still has a lot of materials to transport tonight. If you are willing to stay, we will welcome you. As for the treatment, the treatment will remain the same.

, tube full.

When these people heard that there was something else to do in the evening, they immediately agreed without hesitation. Some refugees even heard about such a good thing. After eating, they immediately went back to find their relatives and asked Cheng San if he wanted workers.

Cheng San had already received an order from Lin Dong. No matter how many people came tonight, Lin Dong would take care of them, and he could take care of a full meal first.

Of course, these people must be strong and healthy, leaving out the old, weak, sick and disabled. After all, he is not running a charity. Tonight, he must transport the materials to the ship as quickly as possible and then leave the city. Once he delays,

If it takes too long, things will be in trouble when the intruders enter the city.

After loading the grain onto the big ship, Lin Dong finally felt relieved. All he had to do now was to find the carrier, put the autumn grain into the warehouse, and then get the voucher for the autumn grain into the warehouse.

Of course, it's still a little early to go find the carrier, and you have to figure it out right. If it's too early, the other party will ask for it to be put into storage today. If it's too late, the carrier may have already gotten off work before you can go there.

Lin Dong silently calculated the time in his mind, and finally waited until the end of the afternoon. It should be a more suitable time to go there.

Seeing that the time had come, Lin Dong immediately led Cheng San towards the warehouse.

The distance from here to that granary was not that far in the first place, and Lin Dong and the two quickly arrived outside the granary.

"Chief Lin, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time." Li Sen walked around the door anxiously, obviously waiting anxiously.

"I'm sorry, it's the New Year period, so it's a little difficult to collect food. No, I just collected the food and came here." Lin Dong said apologetically.

"Have all the autumn grains collected?" Lin Sen looked delighted. He was also responsible for this matter. If Lin Dong failed to put the autumn grains into the warehouse on time, the higher authorities found that he, the carrier, was also responsible.

"Don't worry, sir. How dare I waste time? Sir, please come with me. We will go put the autumn grain into the warehouse immediately." Lin Dong said, pointing to several large ships moored on the shore.

"good……"

Li Sen nodded repeatedly and followed Lin Dong towards the ship.

Soon several people arrived on the ship. Li Sen counted the grains on several large ships, and then took out a few bags. He found that they were all new grains. He was immediately very happy and wanted to find someone to carry the grains.

"Commissioner, you see, it's getting late today. Master Transporter has worked hard all day and it's time to go back and rest early. Why not put the food on the boat first and wait for people to carry it tomorrow morning." Lin Dong said with a flattering look.

"You're right. Since the autumn grain hasn't been put into storage yet, it won't be too late for me to put it into storage tomorrow." Li Sen said, shaking his head.

Lin Dong cursed secretly in his heart, what a villain, he immediately smiled, took out a piece of silver from his body and stuffed it into Li Sen's hand and said: "Master Shipping Envoy, you see, my brothers have been delayed here for more than ten days.

, why don’t you, the shipping envoy, help me with the warehousing procedures first, so that we can return home early tomorrow morning.”

Li Sen threw away the money in his hand and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense. Let's do this. I will issue an official letter to you right now. You can take the official letter to the person in charge and stamp it with a big seal."

Lin Dong was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.

Li Sen took Lin Dong's money, and his work efficiency was much higher. He quickly gave Lin Dong an official letter that the autumn grain had been put into the warehouse, and asked him to take the official letter to the person in charge to have it stamped.

Lin Dong was overjoyed when he saw that the matter was done. As long as he put a big seal on Kanhe, it would be done. Even if Liu Jingzhong wanted to find fault with him after returning, he would have no reason.

However, when Lin Dong followed Li Sen to the yamen where the principal worked, he was dumbfounded. He saw that the yamen door was closed tightly and there was no one inside.

"What's going on?" Lin Dong frowned. It shouldn't be time to get off work yet, so where did the person in charge go?

At this moment, a figure came into view. This person was really Li Yan.

Until this moment, Lin Dong understood everything. It seemed that Liu Jingzhong had colluded with the chief officer for a long time, and he just refused to seal his worthiness. It was obvious that he had been plotted against him, and he did not expect that in his thousands of years,

After all calculations, I was tricked by Liu Jingzhong, which is really annoying.

Thinking of this, Lin Dong couldn't help but feel discouraged. After all the calculations, he still missed one step. What should we do now? What should we do?

If he can't put a big seal on Kanhe, even if he goes back, he will be played to death by Liu Jingzhong.

"General, what's wrong with you?" Cheng San noticed something unusual about Lin Dong and asked with a worried look on his face.

"I came out this time to transport the autumn grain. If the procedures for putting the autumn grain into the warehouse cannot be completed today, things will be in trouble." Lin Dong shook his head and said.

Cheng San glanced at the closed door and said, "Time is so tight, what should we do?"

Lin Dong shook his head and said secretly: "There will be chaos in Fengyang tonight. It will be even harder to find the person in charge by then. What should we do?"

"General, don't worry. At most, we can stay in Fengyang for one more day." Cheng San said with relief, not knowing what Lin Dong was thinking.

Lin Dong shook his head and said secretly: "It seems that we have to find another way to deal with this matter."

"Let's go, let's go to the competition between the little dancing girl and Gu Mei. We'll talk about this later."

"Yes, General." Cheng San agreed and followed Lin Dong towards the place where the little dancing girl and Gu Mei were competing.

The place for the competition between the two was arranged outside the city. Since this competition was related to his future, Lin Dong decided to go there in person. If the little dancing girl could win, she would definitely be impressed by the little dancing girl speaking for him at that time.

Zhu Guoxiang.

If the little dancing girl loses, she can adapt herself to the situation and see if she can catch the eunuch Yang Ze's boat.

With this in mind, the two of them quickly arrived outside the city. At this time, the stage had been set up. The three sides of the stage were already full of guests. Those with some influence were sitting in the front row, while Zhu Guoxiang and Yang Ze were sitting on one side of the stage.

On both sides, this person was smiling and saying something, and he didn't seem to have any discord because of tonight's competition.
Chapter completed!
