"

"Yes! This subordinate retire!"

After the shopkeeper left, Ye Xiang thought quietly, he had a feeling that the person he wanted to invest in would meet soon.

After receiving Ye Xiang's order, the shopkeeper here immediately sent a greeting card to visit the incoming imperial grain official.But the imperial food officer was very surprised after receiving the greeting card.

You must know that the war has been going on for more than a year, and all the food that should be bought has been bought.This time he thought it was just a formality, but unexpectedly someone came to sell food!It's incredible to think about him.Unless this person doesn't want to eat his own food or he has a lot of food.Thinking about it like this, he wouldn't foolishly refuse, and he would feel ashamed to think about it empty-handed.

So he hurriedly called someone to greet him.After the shopkeeper was welcomed into the main hall, he also saw the imperial food official.

I saw him about four or fifty years old, with a long beard and a brown official robe.When he saw the shopkeeper, he greeted him with a smile and said, "My little brother, come, come, come! Sit down."

The shopkeeper now has enough confidence, and he is becoming more and more serious and capable, but his ability to read words and expressions will not change at all.Seeing the enthusiasm of the imperial grain officer, he knew that it was difficult for him to buy grain during the war.Now there is not enough to eat, let alone sell.This is a good opportunity to raise food prices.

He sat down at the seat invited by the imperial food officer, calmly took a sip of tea and smiled, "Master Guan is so enthusiastic. I am here to visit you this time mainly to discuss the matter of selling food. I don't know what you think of it What about the food price this time!"

"Oh! I really hit it off with my little brother. Why do you call me so polite? I already call you little brother, why don't you just call me big brother!" Said.

"Okay, big brother." The shopkeeper changed his words politely, and asked the question again, "I don't know how big brother thinks about the price of food this time? My little brother thinks that the price of food should be mentioned."

"Hey, brother, this question depends on how much food you have. If there is too much food, the price will increase to make money." The imperial food officer smiled, his face turned into orange peel.He wants to see whether this person has more food or less food!If there is little food, come and give him a ride, charge him a lot, see if he doesn't give him a good lesson, and waste his expression.

"That's not a problem. I can give you as much food as you want! Then—this price?" The shopkeeper looked at the grain official suspiciously.

"Up, up! Absolutely up!" The imperial food officer seemed to have forgotten what he had just thought, his face was full of excitement and liking, "As long as it is true."

"Don't worry, big brother, can I lie to you about this! After all, to lie to you is to lie to the Holy Majesty, and to commit the crime of deceiving the King!"

"That's right, that's right." Now the two of them have already linked their shoulders.

The imperial food official then said: "Since this is true, the big brother will definitely increase the price of food for you, my little brother. Who made you my little brother. Hahaha!" There are still so many in the war. Grain must have great status and wealth. He must climb this line. In the future, buying grain will not be so difficult, and he may even be appreciated by the new emperor. Haha, what a wonderful prospect!

"I heard that the price of food used to be ten or twenty cents, but now it should be around ten or fifty cents, big brother." The shopkeeper laughed.

"Haha, okay, I will give you as much as you want, brother. But brother, I want five months' food and grass for the army." Anyway, there is still money in the national treasury, and the money is spent from the national treasury.

"No problem, big brother." The shopkeeper patted the shoulder of the imperial food officer and invited, "Big brother, are you hungry? Come and taste the meal I asked someone to bring. It's delicious."

"Of course, of course, I want to have a drink with you, little brother, haha, let's go!" The imperial food officer also patted the shopkeeper on the shoulder and walked towards the stone table in the courtyard.

When they arrived in the courtyard, the shopkeeper asked the following servants to bring the meals in the food box to the table.Looking at these exquisite dishes, the imperial food officer blinked, and couldn't help but wonder: "My little brother, what kind of dish is this? Why, brother, I have never seen it before!" As an imperial food official, he is so delicious. The delicacies have never been eaten before, but he has never seen this kind of dishes.How strange!Could it be that the old boy is a food merchant!

The shopkeeper knew that he would have such a reaction, and said with a smile: "Big Brother, you will know if you eat it!"

Hearing this, the imperial grain merchant ate it with his chopsticks.But this is a taste that has never been eaten before, and it is even more delicious than the ones that have been eaten before.Suddenly, as if remembering something, he widened his eyes and said in surprise: "Could this be the grain you want to sell!"

"Not bad" the shopkeeper was very satisfied and proud of the surprised expression of the imperial food officer.Look, what a genius their young master is, and what an honor it is to work under him!Thinking about it like this, he still said: "It's this kind of food! Look, this is the recipe I ordered someone to write. You hand it to the army fireworks camp and let them follow it!"

The imperial food officer took the recipe handed over by the shopkeeper, and quickly flipped through it as if he had found a treasure.With this thing, does he still worry about getting promoted and getting rich?

No, the two seemed to get closer during the dinner table greetings.The imperial food officer who paid the money after the meal still reluctantly said goodbye to the departing shopkeeper.

After returning to Yezhuang, the shopkeeper ordered someone to bring the money into the village, and immediately went into Ye Xiang's study to report the completion of the transaction.

After Ye Xiang finished listening, he said calmly: "It's well done and judge the hall master. As for the money, let's put it in the treasury and send someone to guard it strictly!"

"Also, tomorrow the emperor's grain official will bring people to fetch the grain in person. He will know where the grain comes from and send people to dig around. You might as well tell him yourself to save him the time of investigation. It will deepen his relationship with us. The second is to open up official channels and provide convenience for future business."

"However, you can hint that he will take this to the imperial court for meritorious service."

"Yes!"

really!In the early morning of the next day, the imperial food officer brought the waiting guards to Yezhuang to get the food in person.He really wanted to see what these new grains looked like.

At this time, the shopkeeper who received the report from the servant also hurriedly got up to greet him.

After arching his hands, he made a gesture of invitation and said with a smile, "Big brother, why did you come in person? It's really rude to take so long to come out to greet you!"

"Haha, little brother, not long, not long, just in time!" He also laughed back.

"That's good." The shopkeeper seemed relieved, "Come on, please, big brother."

"Okay! Let's go!"

The shopkeeper brought the imperial grain officer to the Yezhuang grain warehouse, and pointed out: "This is it." Then he called the guards to open the warehouse.

"Well, my people will start to get the grain." The imperial grain officer called the guards to start moving the grain truck.

The two watched the guards move around, and the shopkeeper seemed to raise the topic inadvertently.

"I found this food by accident. People, if you are very hungry, you dare to eat anything."

The emperor's grain officer was moved in his heart, and he sighed inadvertently: "It must be difficult for the old brother!"

Listening to his words, the shopkeeper knew that he was misled, and he would not expose it, because this kind of misleading was what they wanted.After all, the young master looked at his young age, so it was inconvenient for him to come forward for many things.At this time, his role is to mislead others into thinking that he is the master of Ye Zhuangming, and to block unnecessary trouble for the young master.He is honored.

"Yeah, it's not easy. Fortunately, my little brother, I found grains that are regarded as weeds."

"What kind of weed is it!"

"Come on, big brother, I'll take you to see."

The shopkeeper and the imperial food officer came to the outskirts of Yezhuang, and some food was left here as a souvenir.He pointed: "Look at the weeds here. It's incredible!"

"It's really unbelievable. It's this kind of weed. Farmers often use it to feed animals. I never thought it could be eaten!" the imperial grain official said in surprise.This... isn't he rich?

The shopkeeper, seeing his thief-like expression, secretly thought, there is no way to take advantage.So he said with a look of temptation for his sake: "Yes! It's so incredible! As long as we present this discovery to the imperial court, we will be famous all over the world, and the wealth will flow in! It is no longer a dream to get promoted and make a fortune!"

The emperor's grain official turned around in his heart and said: "Then, let the elder brother go and offer to the emperor, and the blessed elder brother will definitely enjoy it with you!" He said so, but he thought of exclusive enjoyment in his heart!He will tell the emperor that the grain I bought was edible grain that was once treated as weeds.In this way, the emperor will definitely reward him greatly. It is not a dream to increase his official position and wealth!Just thinking about it makes his mouth water!

"Hehe, that's it. The food should be transported, brother, I will go back to the capital to report." He couldn't wait.

"Good, good, good! Congratulations to my brother!"

After the shopkeeper escorted the imperial food officer away, he would report to Ye Xiang again.Ye Xiang nodded to show he understood.The person he wanted to invest in was about to arrive.He is also calm.

Huangpu Sugu

Huangpu Sugu

The imperial food officer who has been on the road these days is the most urgent time for him to transport food, and he has shortened the original journey of more than ten days by half.

No, as soon as he returned to the capital, he ran to the palace to have an audience, because he had already seen money flying in the sky.

He was so excited that he waited anxiously for the emperor's edict. After receiving the emperor's announcement, he immediately performed the official ceremony happily and finally saw the emperor.

To be honest, this was the first time he met Shengyan.I saw a boy about 11 years old sitting on the golden and magnificent hall with red lacquer and dragon carving, and on the dragon leaning seat with lacquer and gold dragon carving.To be exact, there were about eleven children sitting there.Like Ye Xiang, he used his arrogance to increase his age several times, which is not to be underestimated!The whole body exudes a domineering, cold and unstoppable momentum of ruling the world!
