Chapter 1426: The One Behind the Scenes

"This ...... My lord, these profiteers are doing all kinds of evil, maybe they are really crazy, and if they attack you, let the soldiers guard outside. Mancang was a little worried, he was not afraid, but Ye Shikai had a heavy responsibility, and he was a young general with a heavy weapon, so it would be bad if there was an accident.

"Don't worry, businessmen are angry and make money, if I provoke them so much, I can make them angry and kill, and they are also officers of the Qin army, then they are really not business materials. Ye Shikai shook the tea in the cup, "That's right, you go and tell the shopkeeper, I have chartered this teahouse today, and no one else is allowed to enter except for the person who is waiting." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will do it. ”

"Little Er, another pot of good tea. ”

"Well, wait a minute. ”

An hour later.

"The warehouse is full, how are the thirteen places where grain is sold? Ye Shikai asked.

"There is nothing unusual, many people have bought a lot of food, and some places have sold out of food. "But compared to when the market opened, the number of people is much lower.

"Is there anyone going to stop you? Ye Shikai continued to ask.

"There are one or two hundred cavalry brothers everywhere, and no matter how bold those men are, they will never dare to confront us. Man Cang replied.

"I'm not worried that someone will come to rob it, it is a capital crime to confront Qin Jun, no one will be so stupid, I am asking, is Cao Wenzuo coming. ”

"This ...... It's also strange to say, we made a lot of noise, and the city was in such turmoil, but there was no movement from the official side, and Cao County's order did not come, and no one was even sent out. ”

"Well, that's what I expected. Ye Shikai nodded, if the boss behind the scenes really wanted to meet him, there was naturally no need to notify Cao Wenzuo to "intervene" in selling grain first.

"Report to the military marquis, someone downstairs has arrived, and he wants to see the military marquis by name. At this time, a pro-soldier came in and said.

"What. Mancang walked to the window, looked down, turned around and scolded, "There is only a white sedan chair outside, where is there anyone." ”

"Tell the marquis, who is coming...... It was a woman, and she was accompanied by several guards. ”

"What, woman. Man Cang screamed in shock, Ye Shikai's palm trembled, and the teacup shook.

"Indeed, it was a masked woman who asked to go upstairs alone to meet the soldiers. The pro-soldier said hesitantly.

"All right, go down first, let all the brothers outside withdraw, and let the woman come up. Ye Shikai said lightly, the person who came turned out to be a woman, this is probably the only place that surprised him, but since the person came, he still had to see it.

"Wow. ”

"My lord, although the person who came is a woman, but I can't relax, I have heard among the people, many killer organizations, there are female killers, they are more vicious than ordinary killers, and there are more means. Xue San reminded on the side.

"Yes, my lord, my soldiers and I are here to keep you safe. Man Cang replied.

"No need, a woman dares to come to me alone, if I still need the protection of so many guards, won't she laugh out of her big teeth, okay, you just wait outside." ”

"This ......"

"Obey orders. ”

"Wow. ”

"Wow. ”

As soon as Man Cang and Xue San walked out of the private room, the masked woman walked up, her steps were light and dignified, but she looked like a "lady of everyone".

"I want to talk to the steward, if you're not behind ......"

"Junhou, the little woman is the person behind the grain store, and the junhou set up a tea banquet here, and the little woman is polite. "The woman talks generously and politely, and she can't associate the woman in front of her with a profiteer in the slightest.

"I don't know what the military will do with the gifts that my subordinates gave to the military candidates yesterday. The masked woman sat opposite Ye Shikai and said lightly.

"One thousand gold, but it is a huge amount of money, in Yang County, I am afraid that there is no second person who can give away a thousand gold casually. Ye Shikai smiled quite meaningfully, if there is no secret recipe for eternal youth, then the woman in front of her is only in her twenties at most, but she can control so much property, if she is from a big family, it makes sense, but if she "earns" it, it will be a little terrifying.

"The military has won the award. The masked woman clapped her palms lightly, and several of the guards who accompanied her carried a box in.

"Yesterday my subordinates said it, and today I have a lot of thanks. As soon as the woman finished speaking, the guards beside her opened the wooden box, and as expected, there was a thousand gold inside.

"Although I also want this thousand gold, it seems that I can't accept it this time, and I have already sold all your stored grain, haven't I? Ye Shikai began to be a little unpredictable, the woman in front of him was not in a hurry, not angry, could it be ...... She didn't care about the food in the slightest.

"The military waiter stole my grain stock and sold it to the people, did I have any holiday with the army before? The woman asked rhetorically.

"Of course not, but I've always hated profiteers, especially ...... Profiteers, who have sucked the blood of the people, did not you feel troubled when you got this grain from the people, and now you buy and sell it and scavenge money from the people? ”

"Haha, I can't imagine that the army who defeated the wolf clan on the battlefield has such a side. The woman laughed out loud as if she had heard a very funny joke.

"Children only distinguish between right and wrong, and adults only look at the pros and cons, don't they? The woman said lightly.

"A gentleman loves money, and he takes it in the right way, and businessmen do business, one must not hurt nature and reason, and two must not violate the law and discipline, and you have violated these two articles, and now you are still talking in front of me, speaking of which, you are a young woman, why do you have to do these profiteers' things. ”

"Haha, the military candidate also said that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, but I am not a gentleman, and the slave family is a little girl. ”

Ye Shikai was almost stunned, could it be that this ancient woman also likes to play with Lai, he thought that this "person behind the scenes" would be furious, and then make a move on him, in this way, Ye Shikai would have a reason to arrest him, but he didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be a woman, and he was polite and respectful, but he didn't know what to do.

"Junhou, your troops will leave for Xianyang tonight, and I am afraid that they will never return to Yang County, when the time comes, what should you do with me." The woman was very happy when she saw Ye Shikai's "deflated" appearance, and she laughed loudly.

"You ......" Ye Shikai was very helpless, it was true, if he left, the woman in front of him would still continue to sell high-priced grain, and when the time came, the money she lost today could be obtained from the people.
