Chapter 46 Uncle Wang, you need to pay more for this matter!
"Uncle Wang, are you done with your work? Why do you have time to come to my nephew?"
Seeing Wang Youdao, Li Yuanjing hurriedly smiled and bowed, and welcomed Wang Youdao into the large warehouse that was not in use yet.
After Chen Chunyan brought in the steaming brazier and carefully closed the door, Wang Youdao smiled and said:
"Yuan Jing, your Uncle Wang, I thought I already looked up to you, but I didn't expect that I still look down on you. It's only been a few days, and you've already looked like this here?"
Li Yuanjing hurriedly cupped his hands and said with a smile:
"This is all thanks to Uncle Wang's support of my nephew."
The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
Say a few words.
Wang Youdao also started to bring the topic to the point, lowering his voice and saying:
"Yuan Jing, have you heard about what happened in Yicheng County these days?"
Li Yuanjing suddenly became smart.
Based on his understanding of Wang Youdao, he naturally understands that Wang Youdao will never take aim without aim!
After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said:
"Uncle Wang, my nephew knows something about it. It seems that there is a bit of chaos in Yicheng County?"
When Wang Youdao saw that Li Yuanjing actually knew the news about Yicheng County, the smile on his face couldn't help but get bigger, and he said:
"Yuan Jing, between us, your Uncle Wang and I will not play tricks with you. Right now, your Uncle Wang has a deal here, which can at least make you this amount!"
Wang Youdao stretched out a finger to Li Yuanjing and said in a seductive voice:
"Yuan Jing, do you dare to accept it?"
Li Yuanjing naturally understood that Wang Youdao's finger referred to one hundred taels of silver.
But Li Yuanjing knows better!
The relationship between him and Wang Youdao, even if it was barely close, with some small connections, was far from a community of interests.
Would Wang Youdao be so kind as to leave such a beautiful thing to himself?
However, Li Yuanjing is a proven veteran after all. He didn’t show any flaws on his face, and he pretended to be overjoyed and said:
"Uncle Wang, for the love you have shown to my nephew, my nephew is so broken that I can't even repay you for it. I don't know what you want my nephew to do..."
Wang Youdao seemed very satisfied with Li Yuanjing's attitude, but he sighed deeply and said:
"Yuan Jing, what is the market going on now? I won't tell you, Uncle Wang, but you should also understand. We are now helpless, but we have many enemies, so we have to leave a few more escape routes."
Seeing Li Yuanjing nodding his head in agreement, Wang Youdao continued in a low voice:
"Yuan Jing, your Uncle Wang and I have a sum of grain in our hands right now. It just so happens that there is an acquaintance in Yicheng County who wants this quantity of food. However, your Uncle Wang and I don't have enough manpower here now...
"
"Yuan Jing."
Wang Youdao stared straight at Li Yuanjing and said:
"Can you do your Uncle Wang a favor and transport this batch of grain to Yicheng County?"
"Yuanjing, I don't need you to transport it to Yicheng County. You just need to take a detour to Chenjiadu Ferry and help me transport this batch of grain across the river to Huangniwa Village!"
"As long as Yuan Jing dares to take this job, your Uncle Wang, I can pay half of the deposit now!"
"how?"
Wang Youdao directly took a big cloth bag and poured a large piece of snow-white broken silver fruit inside onto the ground.
Just like fifty taels of silver!
"this……"
Li Yuanjing pretended to be stunned for a moment, looking at the silver with a greedy look.
However.
Li Yuanjing's heart was extremely clear at this time, and his mind was spinning rapidly!
Although what Wang Youdao said may seem bland and gentle, Li Yuanjing's keenness has already captured a lot of the core information!
The first to bear the brunt.
Wang Youdao is willing to pay such a high price just to transport a batch of grain. This is obviously absolutely abnormal!
Analyze according to the most basic causal reasoning logic.
Either there is something wrong with Wang Youdao's batch of grain, there may be something in it!
Or, there is something wrong with the person receiving this batch of food, and it may be a big problem!
Then combine it with the current state of affairs.
Especially Li Yuanjing faintly heard that Wang Youdao seemed to be a little unhappy with Dong Ye from the same village...
Li Yuanjing basically already has a big framework in mind!
With the temperament of a seasoned veteran like Wang Youdao, when his situation faces difficulties, he will never sit still and wait for death!
but!
Wang Youdao is another businessman who seems to follow the rules...
Li Yuanjing basically came to a conclusion in his mind!
Very possible!
Wang Youdao wanted to sell this batch of grain, or in other words, half-sell and half-give it away to the remnants of the Fragrance Cult on the other side of the river in Yicheng County!
Because even though Li Yuanjing has no evidence, based on his current understanding of the overall environment, he can already draw a relatively reliable pre-inference.
That is——
Dongye, the great blacksmith and businessman in Dagou Village, is most likely the weapons supplier to the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect on the other side of the river!
Only this possibility made Wang Youdao panic a little and wanted to quickly please the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect to prevent the situation from getting out of balance.
otherwise.
Given the current state of the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect, as long as Mr. Dong makes a little effort, I'm afraid these desperate gangs will really dare to take the blame for Wang Youdao's family!
"Uncle Wang, it's okay for my nephew to do this. After all, we are a family and we are brothers. But..."
Li Yuanjing thought for a while, so he looked at Wang Youdao with difficulty and said:
"Uncle Wang, my nephew heard that the Chenjiadu ferry seems to be guarded by government troops, and it seems that it is also guarded by the noble's elite personal guards. This..."
Li Yuanjing actually didn't know the situation at Chenjiadu Ferry at this time, but based on the anxiety Wang Youdao showed at this time, Li Yuanjing decided to test it out.
Wang Youdao's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly returned to normal and hurriedly said:
"Yuan Jing, you don't have to worry about this! I have already established connections in the county, and I will use the Zhangji Liangmi Store's sign. You are all from Zhangji Liangmi Store."
"Besides, I have established a good relationship with you at Chenjiadu Ferry a long time ago. No one will make things difficult for you. You just need to transport the grain to Huangniwa!"
"Yuan Jing, what's wrong, don't you still believe your Uncle Wang?"
Li Yuanjing's test seemed to have an effect. By this time, Wang Youdao was already a little panicked and started to pressure Li Yuanjing directly.
"Uncle Wang, this..."
Li Yuanjing pretended to be embarrassed on the surface, but in his heart he was just like Ming Jing!
How could this matter be as simple as Wang Youdao said!
Even if Wang Youdao really has the intention to send food, more likely, he is just doing it for show, for the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect to see!
As for Li Yuanjing, who worked hard——
Wang Youdao just had a passing relationship with Li Yuanjing. For the safety of his own family, Li Yuanjing was considered a pawn?
To die is to die!
As long as he protects himself first, he might be able to take over Li Yuanjing's property in Quanzi Village.
Anyway, this era is full of war and chaos, and bandits are rampant. Even if the Murong family asks about Li Yuanjing, a small character, it can't be explained in one sentence?
While thinking.
Li Yuanjing couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
really.
Human beings are the most terrifying cancer cells on the planet!
No matter when and where, as long as you want more resources, it will be a bloody horror of cannibalism!
but.
Li Yuanjing calmed down quickly.
Wang Youdao's plan can be said to be exhaustive, but after all, he has huge limitations of the times. He made a judgment based on the understanding of the current era.
But for Li Yuanjing, he was completely standing in the atmosphere, directly overlooking Wang Youdao from a height that exceeded several dimensions!
The core of Wang Youdao's plan is that this batch of grain must cross the river. Even if it cannot cross the river, it must be shown at Chenjiadu Ferry so that the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect in Yicheng County near Huangniwa can see it. Wang Youdao definitely wants to
Helping Wenxiang teach.
To put it bluntly, this is what he wants. He not only wants to be a bitch, but also wants to build a memorial arch!
However.
At this time, Li Yuanjing had found the flaw based on his memory!
According to Wang Youdao's plan, Li Yuanjing wanted to deliver this batch of grain to Huangniwa. Even if he started from Quanzi Village, he would have to walk at least seventy or eighty miles!
Because we have to bypass the surging Yishui River, the river is more than a mile wide, and even if the center of the river is frozen in winter, it will not be able to freeze solidly, so we have to take the Chenjiadu Ferry!
Because within a radius of seventy or eighty miles, only Chenjiadu Ferry has boats that can cross the river!
But actually!
Counting from Quanzi Village, the straight-line distance from Huangniwa will never exceed thirty miles.
Even only twenty-seven or eight miles!
However, due to various reasons in this era, no one knows how to build a boat, so it is impossible to cross the rolling Yishui River, which is more than a mile wide and the current is very surging!
but.
This is obviously not too difficult for Li Yuanjing!
"Yuan Jing, why, haven't you thought about it yet?"
At this time, Wang Youdao became a little angry when he saw that Li Yuanjing had not replied, and he began to pressure Li Yuanjing harder.
"Ai?"
Li Yuanjing seemed to have finally come to his senses at this time, pretending to be difficult and said:
"Uncle Wang, it's not that my nephew can't do this... But, Uncle Wang, you also know the huge risks involved in this matter. My nephew must take precautions. You need to add more money so that my nephew can arrange the follow-up."
