I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

When he mentioned the whereabouts of the grain, Liu Yunzhou frowned and said, "The imperial court is so slow. I even suspect they are doing this on purpose."

Seeing this, Liu Chenfeng quickly interrupted and said, "Second uncle, be careful with your words. Don't say such things anymore, or someone will take advantage of you."

"understood."

Liu Yunzhou sighed and said, "Ah! I've contributed money and effort to the court, but I'm not even allowed to speak. It's so frustrating!"

Liu Chenfeng laughed and said, "It's because each of you is so powerful! It's normal for others to be wary of our family, isn't it?"

Liu Yunzhou said unconvincedly, "With our family, we only have one prime minister, one general, and me as the prefect. This is something to be wary of. We haven't even added anyone to the harem yet! If there were anyone from our family among the emperor's concubines, then... wouldn't those people be in chaos?"

Liu Chenfeng said helplessly: "Second uncle, did you miss two people?"

"Two were missed. Where were they missed?" Liu Yunzhou wondered doubtfully. Apart from the three of them, he didn't think there was anyone else in their family who could pose a threat to those court officials!

After thinking about it, he suddenly said: "You are not talking about your father and you!"

Liu Chenfeng nodded gently and replied, "Yes. Maybe in Second Uncle's eyes, my father's official position is not high, and I am just a businessman. But you may not have thought about it carefully. With my father's position, if he gets things done, it will also pose a threat to many people. Not to mention a businessman like me, who is the envy of many people."

"If this business is successful, will it also hinder them?" Liu Yunzhou asked back.

"But this is not just good! I am the richest man in Beijing!" Liu Chenfeng emphasized on "the richest man in Beijing".

Liu Yunzhou then made a look of astonishment and said, "Ah! It's because our family is too simple that I often forget that you have this identity!"

Liu Chenfeng replied: "Yes! This is because our ancestors taught us well."

Speaking of his old father, Liu Yunzhou sighed again: "Speaking of your ancestor, I have to nag a little bit! You said he didn't let me stay in Beijing, and he also didn't let you do the grain business!"

Liu Chenfeng said he knew this. "I asked the ancestor about this privately, and he explained that food and grass are the foundation of a country, and our family's current development is already quite good. If I get involved in the food business again, there's no guarantee that the emperor won't become suspicious of our family's loyalty."

Liu Yunzhou sighed and said, "Ah! That's what I said, but this time you have to pay out of your own pocket to buy so much expensive food and ship it to the front line. It makes me sad just thinking about it."

Liu Chenfeng said with a smile: "Second uncle, are you stupid again? With the money I earn, buying such a small amount of food is nothing!"

Liu Yunzhou slapped him on the back of the head and scolded him harshly, "Who are you calling stupid? I'm nothing to you. Besides, I didn't forget you, I just felt sorry for you. You said you worked so hard to earn money, and you haven't even enjoyed it yet! But you have to use it to clean up other people's messes first. Are you willing to accept that?"

"Why should I be unwilling? I'm not just helping those officials in the Ministry of War. I'm helping my brother, who was born on the same day as me. And also those soldiers fighting bravely on the front lines. If it weren't for them, how could we have the peace we have now?"

Liu Yunzhou nodded and agreed, "Yes! It's really not easy for them."

Then he added, "Since you are leaving tomorrow, I will show you something good now."

"Oh, what good stuff did Second Uncle get that makes you so happy?"
