Volume 1: Zhao Shanhe Chapter 111 Going out for a walk
In the next few days, just as Qian Nishang expected, the group of guys from various forces in the county and city used various methods.
But after all, she is also one of the three owners of Ming Xinxuan. She has been in charge of the Qian family for twenty or thirty years. What kind of storms has she not seen?
The two sides were going back and forth, fighting in secret, and playing all kinds of trump cards one after another, causing the city to be filled with wind and rain. Fortunately, no one crossed the line, and at least the disaster relief was able to be maintained.
"I heard that various forces from the county and city have not really started to provide disaster relief yet?"
Ji Yuan sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace and asked casually.
Next to him, the girl named Dong'er nodded: "I heard from the big guys that those people have accumulated all the supplies brought from the county and refused to give out any of them. It seems that they want to wait for the critical moment.
At this moment, give us Ming Xinxuan a fatal blow."
It is not difficult to guess what these people are thinking. Isn't it because they want to wait until Ming Xinxuan is unable to continue, or when the disaster relief is about to end, so that they can use the accumulated supplies to seize the last good name.
As long as Ming Xinxuan's reputation is completely ruined among the people, and at the last moment, they stand together with the people of the county governor's office and provide disaster relief and materials in the name of the court, they can take all the credit.
.
When the time comes, a large amount of merit will be obtained, and all Qian Nishang's goals will be defeated. A lot of money and manpower will be wasted, and only a small amount of merit will be obtained in the end.
Not only did it thwart his plan to break through with his merits, but such a heavy failure and the consumption of countless money were enough to put the Qian family, which was already shaking in the wind and rain, into a completely dead situation.
I'm afraid we don't have to wait for decades. We only need to take this opportunity to completely overthrow this once behemoth in just one or two years.
"If we rob these people of their supplies, will their plans fail?"
Ji Yuan stared at the alchemy furnace in front of him and suddenly asked softly.
Hearing this, Dong'er was stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously.
Nowadays, not to mention in the county and city, even the food that can be purchased within a thousand miles radius has been basically purchased by them. Even if those forces have strong financial resources, they cannot compete with them in this aspect.
Therefore, these people were just hoarding the supplies in their hands, waiting for the final blow at the last moment.
When everything was about to end, he took out the large amount of supplies he had prepared, and then in the name of the court, he took all the achievements made by Ming Xinxuan under his own name.
In this way, not only can one obtain a huge amount of merit, but one can also share the rewards given by the court and the silver from this disaster relief.
If their plan is really successful, they can make a huge profit from this disaster relief at the lowest cost.
"But all the experts recruited by our boss are used to maintain the safety of the disaster relief site and protect the materials in our warehouse."
Dong'er glanced at him hesitantly, implying that he couldn't spare the manpower to intercept the supplies of those forces.
After pondering for a moment, she suddenly said casually: "I heard from my boss that a batch of supplies prepared by various parties are being transported to Qianyu City. They are all expensive medicinal materials, precious silks and other items."
Thanks to Ming Xinxuan who started preparations early and bought everything he could, even if these forces had money, it would be difficult for them to raise a large amount of supplies in a short period of time.
Who made them spend all their time arguing with each other and dividing their interests at the beginning?
Ji Yuan's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Dong'er with a meaningful look. How could he not tell that this was someone's instruction? It was all spoken to him.
It's just that he has been involved enough in this matter. If he does something else, it will easily cause too many consequences.
However, cause and effect is the most feared thing among all practitioners. If it is not inevitable, otherwise it will never be provoked.
This is why practitioners often like to practice in remote mountains, in order to avoid cause and effect as much as possible and not to be contaminated by the disputes in the world.
Only those monks who have no hope of breaking through and are unable to improve their cultivation in this life will stay in secular cities for the sake of their disciples or benefits, and operate relationships and connections for the forces behind them.
"I……"
So Ji Yuan almost didn't think about it and was ready to refuse, not wanting to involve too much.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, Dong'er beside him remembered his boss's explanation and immediately blurted out: "I heard that the value of the materials transported this time is at least 300,000 taels of silver!"
Ji Yuan paused for a moment and his eyelids twitched.
Seeing this, Dong'er took a deep breath and said slowly and carefully: "I heard that a group of bandits entered Luoxia County. I wonder if they will run into this team transporting supplies. If they are robbed, my boss would like to fight with them.
They made a deal and bought all the supplies.":
Three hundred thousand taels...silver...
Ji Yuan sighed and waved his hand to release a stream of energy. The top cover of the alchemy furnace in front of him immediately opened, and the newly made elixirs flew out one by one and fell into the wooden box that had been prepared nearby.
"I went out for a walk. After practicing so many heavenly elixirs, my body became a little stiff."
He muttered a lot, then grabbed the sword beside him, put it on his back, and walked calmly out of the house.
In the hut, Zhao Yuebai and Jiang He looked at each other, and then the two of them couldn't help laughing. Dong'er on the side had a look of astonishment on his face, and the previous explanation from his employer kept popping up in his mind.
"If he wants to refuse, just tell him the value of this batch of supplies, and I will buy them all at a high price."
That was Qian Nishang, saying this while drinking hot tea.
There was a faint smile on his face, and he seemed to be sure that this method could capture this money-loving little Taoist priest.
And the final result was just as she expected. Ji Yuan, who had planned to refuse, immediately changed his mind after hearing these words. After wandering out, he returned to Xuan without knowing it.
View of heaven.
In less than a quarter of an hour, two figures, one large and one small, quietly climbed out of the Taoist temple wall, avoiding the sight of the people as much as possible, and then climbed over the towering city wall and disappeared into the wilderness outside the city.
"Is this guy... really a Taoist priest?"
Listening to Dong'er's return, Qian Nishang couldn't help but twitch her lips even though she had expected it.
She knew that Ji Yuan loved money, but she didn't expect him to love money so much. She thought that even if she had an idea in her heart, she would have to wait until the dead of night before taking action.
Who would have thought that as soon as he heard a few words, he immediately went back to call for help, climbed over the city wall and left in broad daylight.
Is this because he is afraid that others will not know what he wants to do?
"Master, after we get along with each other for a long time, you will understand whether it's strange or not."
Liu Ruyan covered her mouth and smiled softly. She was the person who knew Ji Yuan best here.
This little Taoist priest looks cautious, but once money is involved, he immediately becomes bolder, and he doesn't do desperate things once or twice. It's like he has completely changed.
She still remembers that one time a few months ago, she casually said that there was a monster entrenched somewhere outside the city, and if she could kill it, its horns would be worth hundreds of taels of silver.
As a result, early the next morning, the little Taoist priest appeared outside Mingxinxuan's door with his bloody horns...
Hearing this, Qian Nichang raised her forehead and felt a little confused about how to evaluate it.
"My boss, Shopkeeper Liu, that Taoist priest... do you know the route for delivering supplies?"
A somewhat hesitant voice sounded weakly between the two of them.
Qian Nishang and Liu Ruyan were stunned at the same time, and a helpless sigh came out after a moment.
