Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

We have no grudges against each other, so why are they so hostile to me?

Qin Ming frowned slightly and thought for a moment, but he couldn't find the other person.

It seems to be someone I don't know.

Qin Ming has been doing business in Lingnan for a long time now, and has encountered too many things during this period.

It is also possible to make enemies unintentionally.

"Let's go back after eating. There's still a lot to do in Linjiang City."

Seeing that the other party did not take any actual action, Qin Ming did not think about it any more.

Normally, if Baishan followed him, the other party would not be able to attack him so easily.

Speaking of Linjiang City, Chang Baishan suddenly remembered something and whispered to Qin Ming:

"By the way, Your Highness, the Sun family has a batch of goods that have been sent to the port. It is said to be a large amount of old grain."

"Old grain? They'll save trouble."

Qin Ming curled his lips. The Sun family sent food to the Nanyang merchant caravan for trade, but they had many other thoughts.

They simply brought some grain that had been piled up in the warehouse for several years.

This is equivalent to asking me to help deal with the inventory.

"Where are all the things?"

"It's already been delivered to the port. If it doesn't work, we won't sell it. I'll send it to the army."

Changbaishan opened his mouth tentatively.

He knew that when Qin Ming did business with the Nanyang merchant caravan, he not only emphasized honesty but also the quality of the goods.

If a batch of old grain was sent over, even if the people from the Nanyang merchant caravan returned from the court, they would accept their goods.

But in my heart, my evaluation of Qin Ming will definitely be lowered.

Qin Ming did not nod directly, but just asked:

"What's the price of this old grain?"

“It’s more than half the price of food as it usually is.”

"That's no problem."

Come to think of it, if Sun Jiagang and Qin Ming work together, it will definitely not be that difficult for him.

"Let's go to the port first."

As the two were talking, they prepared to go to the temporary port to check on the Sun family's food.

When they arrived at the port on fast horses, they saw mountains of grain.

In this era, such scenes are rare.

"The rich are feasting and drinking, and the Sun family only took a portion of the old grain, and yet they have so much."

Qin Ming stood under the tall grain pile and sighed.

"Where is your person in charge? Can you bring him to meet His Highness?"

Chang Baishan was not idle and quickly grabbed a man who was directing the workers to unload the goods.

"Our team leader has entered the city. Your Highness, please wait a moment. I'll go call someone to notify them."

"If you're not here, forget it. Just tell me directly."

Qin Ming waved his hand.

I plan to talk to the person in charge about the price first.

"Hey, Your Highness, please speak."

The other party nodded quickly, waiting for Qin Ming to speak.

"This is all old grain, and it's such a large-scale transaction. How about this? I want it all. Can you reduce the price to 30% of the market price?"

"Isn't this... too little?"

Originally, the other party traded with Qin Ming at 45% of the normal market price of grain.

But as soon as Qin Ming opened his mouth, he wanted to break off another part.

"You won't lose money at this price. These old grains from a few years ago are no different from garbage in the eyes of the Sun family."

Qin Ming had already seen through their situation.

Seeing this, the person in charge, who had been quite hesitant, fell silent.

After waiting for a while, he said:

"How about this, Your Highness? I'll give you double the old grain. If you can take it all, I'll give you 30% of it. How about that?"

"How much food do you have?"

Hearing this, Qin Ming and Chang Baishan were shocked!

We know that the wealthy families in various parts of Daqian are very powerful, but no one expected them to be so strong!

You should know that the food at the port now is enough to feed Qin Ming's army of tens of thousands of people for several months.

And they want to give double!

"It's not convenient to tell you this."

"I understand. Go ahead and deliver it. The next batch of food will be sent to my military camp."

It's just old grain, and the taste is slightly worse.

But it can ensure that the soldiers have enough food, which is good for Qin Ming and can also save military camp expenses.

At 30% of the price, the food in the port can still be given to the Nanyang merchant caravans, and they will not have any grudges.

After all, these foods are really cheap.

"Row."

The person in charge of transporting food and fodder also nodded.

Just when Qin Ming was about to say hello to the other party and leave.

A voice suddenly came.

"The grain has already been delivered to the port, and you're just now negotiating the price. Aren't you clearly trying to bully me?"

Qin Ming, Chang Baishan, and the person in charge were all stunned.

They turned around and were shocked to find that the person who came was the cool and beautiful girl they had met in the restaurant.

"she is?"

Seeing this, the person in charge who had just finished talking with Qin Ming was as confused as Qin Ming.

He gave Qin Ming a smile and quickly walked up to the beautiful girl and explained:

"Miss, actually..."

"Shut up! How dare you talk business with someone while I'm not here? You're a traitor!"

The girl glared at him, and her cold eyes made the person in charge shrink his neck.

Walking up to Qin Ming, the cold and icy girl spoke with resentment:

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Sun Luoyan."

"Sun... Luoyan?"

Qin Ming was stunned for a moment.

Chang Baishan also widened his eyes.

They finally realized why the girl was so angry when she first saw Qin Ming.

This is the sister that Sun Miao introduced to Qin Ming!

I didn't expect it to be so beautiful.

He said at the time that his sister Sun Luoyan was stunningly beautiful, but Qin Ming didn't pay any attention to it, thinking he was just bragging.

Who knew it was really so beautiful!

"We've already shipped this grain here, and we've negotiated a very good price. I won't bargain now. If you don't want it, I'll take it away!"

Sun Luoyan was obviously resentful of Qin Ming for rejecting her engagement in front of so many people.

Now he speaks in a very sarcastic tone and will quarrel with Qin Ming at any opportunity.

Qin Ming calmed down and tried to speak in a calm tone:

"I didn't go back before, so I couldn't discuss it with you in detail. It's not too late to talk now. Besides, I've already made compensation and collected twice the amount of old grain from the Sun family."

"You didn't go back, do you blame me?"

Sun Luoyan raised her eyebrows, put her hands on her hips and sneered.

She came from a wealthy family and had never suffered any grievances since childhood.

This time, my brother went out to help me negotiate a marriage, but when he came back he told me that it didn't work out.

They actively refused.

It wasn't just one rejection, it was several rounds of rejections in a row!

This made Sun Luoyan very sad.

But soon, sadness turned into anger and grievance.

After she asked someone to investigate Qin Ming, she took on the family's task of transporting grain and chased him for more than 700 miles to Yinshan County.

After three days of waiting, I finally caught Qin Ming!

She wanted to see what kind of ability this man had to dare to reject a favored girl like herself!
