Maping County Magistrate Niu Dongsheng turned his head in confusion and looked at Qin Di, thinking that this matter was too coincidental. Just two days after the shady scenes of Changping the Stories were revealed, the Jingjiang Palace immediately took the initiative to come to him, as if he was a premonition.

"Xiaguan also thinks something coincidental!" Qin Di nodded gently, and then said seriously: "They revealed that they had transported 5,000 stones of rice. Xiaguan thought this matter was of great importance, so he felt that he should contact him!"

Five thousand stone rice?

When he heard this number, Chen Yan and Niu Dongsheng both took a breath.

Although I knew that there must be a lot of rice and grain in the Jingjiang Palace, I heard that they had transported 5,000 stones of rice and grain to Liuzhou without the price being negotiated, and immediately felt the heroic spirit of the Jingjiang Palace coming to my face.

Lin usually thought about it and then asked seriously: "What is the price they ask for?"

Chen Yan and Niu Dongniu turned their heads and looked at Qin Di, and they were also curious about this, but they didn't know whether it was the lion's big talk or the conscience of the industry.

Qin Di faced Lin Pingchang's inquiry, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face, and then responded bitterly: "They asked for 4 taels per stone, and asked us to buy 5,000 stones of rice and grain at one time!"

Twenty thousand taels?

When Chen Yan and Niu Dongsheng heard this, they were shocked again, and an astonishing number flashed through their minds.

As they cracked the Liuzhou greed case and successfully recovered most of the stolen money, the government is now really holding a sum of silver.

It was just that I really spent 20,000 taels to buy this batch of rice. Although the food in Liuzhou City was alleviated, the price was too high, and it was simply a huge advantage for the Jingjiang Palace.

Lin Pingchang's brows frowned slightly, feeling that this matter was very difficult, but he turned his head to look at Chen Yan and said seriously: "Chen Yan, what do you think?"

Qin Di and Niu Dongsheng turned their heads and looked at Chen Yan, knowing that this woman dressed as a man is quite trusted by this deputy envoy and is an extremely smart aide.

"Since the Jingjiang Palace has brought Mi Du to Liuzhou City, we will naturally try our best to win it, so we can meet him for a while! This sky-high price and landing to pay back the money has always been a common phenomenon in the business world, so we can bargain with them!" Chen Yan thought for a moment and responded with a smile.

Zhu Dongsheng heard that he wanted to bargain, and his brows frowned slightly, but he was very dissatisfied. The food in Liuzhou City is in a hurry now. If the other party bites the price of 4 taels and 1 stone, they will not bargain at all. room.

Lin Pingchang nodded gently, accepted the plan, and decided to try to eat this batch of grain at a lower price.

"I'll make arrangements now!" Seeing that the matter was settled, Qin Di immediately took the initiative to take over the work.

In the east of the city, Zhu Mansion, a house with some mystery, because no one is seen to be moved in at this luxurious house.

However, a few days ago, the house was in motion and spent a lot of money to add a jade bed and purchase expensive ice cubes.

A manager walked through the drooping flower door, hurried in and through the corridor, and came to the main hall to report.

However, the person reported was actually a girl, who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a good appearance and a hint of intelligence in her eyes, but she still looked like she was dressed as a young man and was planning to go out.

The manager looked respectfully at the men's girl inside through a bead curtain: "Mr., there is an envoy who claims to be the deputy envoy of the imperial envoy from outside the door who came to ask for a visit!"

The girl just dressed up properly, but when she heard this, she said proudly: "I've said it a long time ago. As long as we make a little noise, they will definitely come to the door!"

The current King of Jingjiang is Zhu Bangzhu, who is the seventh King of Jingjiang who was canonized in the Ming Dynasty. He has been in power since the sixth year of Jiajing. If there is no accident, Zhu Bangmang's eldest son Zhu Renchang will inherit his title and become the eighth King of the Ming Dynasty.

King Jingjiang.

However, Zhu Renchang's fertility is not strong and he has no children yet. Now he has only one precious daughter, Zhu Furong.

Zhu Furong was born with a golden key in her arms. Not only was she loved by her parents, but she was very smart since childhood and was quite liked by her grandfather, King Jingjiang Zhu Bangzhu. She was loved by her all together.

Zhu Furong came to Liuzhou City to sell grain this time. She was not a tourist who accompanied her, but the real person in charge of this big deal. All the big and small matters here are up to her to decide.

Something happened indeed. Their batch of grain was originally sold to the four major rice shops and became their rice and grain suppliers. But it happened so coincidental. When they were about to trade, Han Hui and others behind the scenes were

He was dealt with by the new deputy envoy Lin Pingchang.

However, the matter is not a bad thing at all. Now Chang Pingtiao has been emptied by Han Hui and others. The entire Liuzhou City cannot last long with the rice purchased by the United Restaurant at a high price.

That's why she took the initiative to join forces with the acting prefect Qin Di, and released the news.

The housekeeper brought the person in and pointed at Zhu Furong and introduced: "This is our chief, Mr. Zhu!"

Shen Yan looked at the other party dressed as a man as she was, but she couldn't help but look at the other party seriously. The so-called chief was probably the direct descendant of the Jingjiang Palace, but she did not point out the other party's intention, so she smiled and bowed: "

In the Xia Shen Wu, I have met Mr. Zhu!"

Zhu Furong looked at the woman dressed in a man with interest, and found that the other party was more skillful than him, and there was heroic spirit between his eyebrows and eyes, but a hint of hostility surged in his heart. He deliberately asked in a tentative tone: "Young Master Shen?"

"Young Master Zhu, just call me Shen Wu!" Shen Yan looked at the other party with a provocation, so she deliberately bit the name of the young master and responded politely.

The head of the company stood beside him, but he was secretly sweating. These two women were really good at playing. Either they could express their identities quickly or pretend to be confused. What's the point of making a fuss about gender?

Seeing that there was no benefit, Zhu Furong smiled and said, "I'd better call you Mr. Shen!"

"Young Master Zhu likes it, no matter what!" Shen Yan came for a business this time, and she looked very humble and authentic.

Zhu Furong suddenly realized that the woman was very pleasing to the eyes. She first coughed lightly and cleared her throat. Then she pointed to the seat and said, "Mr. Shen, please sit down!"

"Young Master Zhu, please ask first!" Shen Yan put her identity in a very straightforward manner and immediately responded respectfully.

When the two maids brought tea, Zhu Furong picked up the teacup, her beautiful eyes secretly observed Shen Yan's reaction.

Shen Yan took a sip, her eyes lit up immediately, and she sighed sincerely: "Feng Hexizi smiled outside the courtyard, Longjing daughter Hong, is a good tea!"

"Young Master Chen, do you actually know the source of this tea?" Zhu Furong was slightly surprised when he saw the other party's reaction.

Chen Yan licked the lips that were fragrant with her lips, and nodded gently and said, "I have loved drinking tea since I was a child. I have been lucky enough to drink a few taels, and I have never forgotten it!"

"Young Master Chen really likes it so much. I still have ten taels of money, so it's not that I can't give it to you!" Zhu Furong's heart moved slightly, and he seemed to have something to say in his words.

"How can you win someone's love?" Chen Yan didn't know that the other party wanted to bribe her, but as soon as she finished speaking, she found that the proud King Jingjiang was suddenly changing. She knew that these emperors and nobles were all people who regarded themselves very highly. He hurriedly explained: "My Dongweng knows that I am good at this kind of West Lake Longjing. He will help me beat her brother's Qiufeng in the capital, and her second sister-in-law brought me half a pound!"

Zhu Furong was originally angry that the other party refused him, but after listening to this, he looked at Chen Yan again and said, "Young Master Chen, you seem to be highly valued by the Lin family. Could it be that Zhuge from the Lin family is not successful?"

"Mr. Zhu, I have to clarify! I am loyal to Dongweng, not loyal to the Lin family. Even if I have helped Minister Lin do things, it is Dongweng's order! For example, this time, I represent Dongweng, and The Lin family has nothing to do with it!" Chen Yan slightly changed the concept and seemed serious.

Zhu Furong felt that this woman had personality and was powerful, but she took the initiative to go to the main business and said: "Since Mr. Chen is here on behalf of the deputy envoy, then let's talk about food! Our Jingjiang Palace is well aware of the shortage of Liuzhou City. The grain, so five thousand stones of grain were transported. I wonder if your elders can accept it?"

"Liuzhou is a poor yamen. Do you think the government yamen has money to eat this batch of rice?" Chen Yan took a sip of tea, but asked back.

Zhu Furong's mouth raised slightly, and a hint of complacent flashed across his eyes: "The Liuzhou government office in the past could not be, but you have searched a lot of money from Gao Zhifu, Qian Tongzhi, Wei Zhixian and others, probably it has exceeded 20,000 yuan. Count it?"

The head of the head standing next to him opened his mouth slightly. It turned out that the lady was not going to do business with the United Restaurant, but wanted to do business with the government, but she couldn't help but look at Zhu Furong with admiration.

Chen Yan found that this girl was not comparable to ordinary clan relatives, and she did not play Tai Chi, so she nodded gently and said, "If you add the silver to recover the stolen goods, you can barely get 20,000 taels, but your asking price is too high. Now!"

"The market price was 100 cents per kilogram before, but my price was very reasonable!" Zhu Furong saw that he entered the bargaining process, but he did not give in at all.

Chen Yan's face turned up, and he looked at Zhu Furong's eyes and said, "Young Master Zhu, you and I know what happened before! If you think that the rice price that corrupt officials pushed up by those despicable means should be Liuzhou City The normal selling price, then we probably have nothing to talk about!”

Zhu Furong is the royal relative of the Zhu family. Although he has long been away from the court, he maintains his hatred for corrupt officials. After all, these people are shaking the foundation of the Zhu family dynasty.

Zhu Furong hesitated for a moment, but asked with a little concession: "How much does your master give?"

She gave four taels and one stone, which was her biggest expectation, but there was a drop of one tael.

The price agreed by the Jingjiang Prince's Mansion and the four major banks is three or five cents. If the Liujiang Mansion gives a price of three or five cents, she will still consider agreeing to this price for the sake of Miss Chen.

The manager standing next to him also felt as if the other party was at the price, so he turned his head and looked at Chen Yan.

Chen Yan faced Zhu Furong's gaze and responded seriously: "One or two, one stone!"

"Please go back!" Zhu Furong's face turned dark and he immediately issued an order to expel the guests.

Chen Yan had long expected her reaction, but she was still sitting in the seat and said, "Mr. Zhu, these silvers are the blood and sweat of the people of Liuzhou. If we spend more money on the same money, it will be difficult to seek help for more refugees! ”

"Three taels and one stone, this is the lowest price of our Jingjiang Palace. If it is lower, I may have to transport it back to the Jingjiang Palace!" After all, Zhu Furong was not a clan relative who ignored the people's fire, but showed his trump card and said that .

When the manager and the maid heard this, they looked at Chen Yan one after another.

Liuzhou City is currently short of food, and their county monarch has given the lowest price, so the next step should be to shake hands and cooperate.

Chen Yan faced the other party's concession and thought for a moment, then responded seriously: "Mr. Zhu, I will give in to my Dongweng. We will add another 20% of the price, which is also the lowest price for us. !”

"One tael, two qian, one stone of rice? Aren't you afraid that I will transport it back?" Zhu Furong glared at the ginkgo eyes and said in disbelief.

Chen Yan faced her eyes, but said confidently: "We arrived in Liuzhou City last month. Since we came for disaster relief, we naturally have to do something! Mr. Zhu, why don't we make a bet, just If you wait for another ten days, you will think I am very kind and will sell this batch of rice to my Dongweng!"

"Okay, I'll wait for ten days to see how you beg me at that time!" Zhu Furong's fighting spirit was aroused, and he immediately gritted his teeth and responded.

The maid next to him looked at each other, but he rarely saw his county monarch lose his composure, but the manager looked at Chen Yan like a fool.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that at present, it can alleviate the food crisis in Liuzhou City. Only the disaster relief grain transported from Guangzhou, or the rice road heading north in Leizhou. However, these two major grain sources will not arrive at at least one month, and the food in Liuzhou City will be ten days later. The problem will only be even more serious.

"Goodbye!"

Chen Yan ignored the manager's gaze that looked like a fool, stood up and said goodbye to Zhu Furong directly.

Zhu Furong snorted coldly. He thought this woman was Zhuge, but now it seems that she is just a show and wasted her good skin.

But things suddenly changed magically. At least the grain merchants in Liuzhou transported the rice one after another, allowing the Liuzhou restaurant to ensure the food demand of the people in Liuzhou and to keep selling the rice at a low price.

Not only that, Lin Pingchang also ordered all prefectures and counties to open warehouses and release grain, and use the government's grain to stabilize rice prices.

The most important thing is that many people are rumored that Leizhou has opened up the grain channel and can transport rice and grain within ten days.

It is precisely in this kind of rumors that the government has stabilized rice prices and the Leizhou grain channel that Liuzhou grain merchants did not choose to stock up on rice, but sold them to the United Restaurant at a price of three taels and one stone.
