Chapter Eighty-Nine: Selling Grain

Two days after Cheng Nuo set up a porridge shed on Xisi Street, Shen Ce also asked people to set up several cauldrons not far from the porridge shed to give porridge to the victims. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Cheng Nuo walked over to visit a few times under curiosity, and saw that the rice porridge in the pot was thick and fragrant, and the rice porridge used was also the best new rice, so he couldn't help but tell Mo Shaoli about it.

"Shen San also set up a porridge shed to give porridge?" Mo Shaoli looked at Cheng Nuo's letter and said to himself, "The fourth brother said just now that Song Heng mentioned to the emperor this morning about Chang Ping and asked for disaster relief, and then Shen San told the emperor that he had 20,000 stones of grain and was willing to give it to the court for disaster relief." ā€

No matter how you look at it, these two people seem to be singing and harmonizing, and they are premeditated!

It's just that Shen San has no food?

Mo Shaoli wouldn't believe that Shen Ce's grain was really bought for his mother to make wine.

It is certain that the Duchess of Zhenguo has a dowry industry, but the winery ......

He will coax the emperor!

But if she doesn't believe it or not, she can't understand why Shen Ce also has so much rice and grain in his hands, and he is still in the city?

Mo Shaoli pondered for a long time, but didn't come up with any suitable explanation, and decided to put it down for the time being.

For her, the most important thing at the moment is how to take out the 50,000 stone grain in her hand reasonably and reasonably to save the victims and alleviate the price of goods in the capital, and preferably in the name of Song Heng.

Whether Shen Ce has food or not has little to do with her.

Of course, it is better for him to have food, at least it is good for the people and the court. Moreover, Shen San was obviously Song Heng's partner, and the more he did, the more beneficial it would be to Song Heng. And the more Song Heng brushes her favor in front of Song Yuan, the easier it will be for her to succeed.

So since that's the case...... Could the grain in her own hands also be justifiably obtained into Song Heng's hands by Shen Ce's hands?

For various reasons, Mo Shaoli didn't want to have too much to do with Song Heng now. What's more, tens of thousands of stone grains suddenly appeared in the hands of the prince, no matter how perfect the reason is and how noble the purpose is, it will eventually arouse the emperor's suspicion. If Song Ke took the opportunity to give Song Heng eye medicine in front of Song Yuan, he would trap Song Heng in a disadvantageous place.

As for Shen Ce...... Mo Shaoli was not worried.

He already had grain in his hands, and getting these things over was just another tens of thousands of stones of grain for him, and I believe he would make up a more suitable reason from Song Yuan.

Without further ado, Mo Shaoli quickly wrote a letter and asked Lin Cong to send it to Cheng Zhai.

As always, Cheng Nuo still couldn't figure out the purpose of Mo Shaoli's move. But he had long been accustomed to Miss Mo Qi's style of doing things, and he knew that every time she acted seemed incomprehensible, but in fact, it had other meanings, so he still did it as always.

Although Shen Ce is the son-in-law of the Zhenguo Mansion and the new celebrity in front of the emperor, it seems unattainable for a pure businessman like Cheng Nuo. However, Cheng Nuo has been operating in Beijing for many years, holding the wealth of the country and the talent of strategy, and he is very comfortable in the three religions and nine streams. He really wants to do it, and it's not very difficult to hook up with Shen Ce.

So soon Cheng Nuo and Shen Ce got on the line.

Although Shen Ce rushed to the time to transport 20,000 stone of grain from the surrounding areas into Beijing before the heavy snow closed the road, it was far from enough for the tens of thousands of victims in Gyeonggi. At this time, I heard that someone had more than 50,000 stone rice grains in his hands, and Shen Ce, who was struggling with the lack of food, quickly made an appointment with him.

According to Mo Shaoli's intentions, Cheng Nuo naturally did not want to give food to Shen Ce, but to sell it to him.

And Mo Shaoli didn't want to sell grain to offer food, but also because he knew that Song Yuan was not short of money in his hands, and he didn't need to save him this silver, it was better to get it in her hands and have another use.

Shen Ce heard that Cheng Nuo was selling grain to him, and he didn't feel anything wrong. For him, it is not important to give and sell, but to get food. Although there is a shortage of rice and wages in Beijing due to the snow disaster, the treasury of the Great Zhou Dynasty is abundant and rich. With only tens of thousands of stone of grain, the emperor will not be stingy with this money.

What's more, for no reason, he has no reason to force people to donate grain, and it has been a great help to sell grain to the imperial court at this time.

"How could Mr. Cheng have so much rice in his hands?" Although Shen Ce urgently needed the food in Cheng Nuo's hands, with so much rice and grain, he had to be routinely interrogated, let alone at such an extraordinary time.

Song Ke was waiting to find out the fault between himself and Song Heng, and he must not fall into his hands at this time.

Before deciding to see Cheng Nuo, Shen Ce had already asked Liufeng and Jingyun to check his details.

"Cheng Nuo was originally a strategist under the general of the protector, and after the general's death, he stayed in the general's palace to take care of the general's wife. Later, the general's wife passed away, and the general Wu Zhao, the princess of the country, entered the palace to accompany the queen mother, and he stayed in the general's mansion to watch the house. Soon after the eldest princess of Hui'an got married, Cheng Nuo suddenly left the general's mansion one day to do business, and then has been doing business in Beijing until now. ā€

It was precisely because he learned that Cheng Nuo came out of the General's Mansion that Shen Ce would see him. But after all, he couldn't help but wonder, why did Cheng Nuo store so much grain in the capital? And at a time like this.

"Uh...... A certain is a businessman, and the businessman is the first to profit. After a certain autumn harvest, he saw that the price of grain was low, so he took the opportunity to collect these rice grains and start them, which were used to make wine from the grain. After the winter, the snow was heavy and the weather was cold, and the matter of making sake was delayed, and the rice grain was nested in his hands. Now I heard that the imperial court needed food for disaster relief, thinking that it was useless to put rice and grain in my hands now, so it was better to sell it to the third master for disaster relief. So I came to see the third master. ā€

Cheng Nuo said that Mo Shaoli asked him to give Shen Ce the reason in the letter, and Mo Shaoli copied Shen Ce's words that morning. Of course, Cheng Nuo already knew that this was Shen Ce's reason for giving the emperor, and when he said it, he was already laughing in his heart: Mo Qi girl blocked her spear with her shield, which was really wonderful!

Shen Ce listened to Cheng Nuo's words, and his face really froze.

The reason for making wine was made up casually in front of the emperor, and I am afraid that no one will believe it except himself. Forehead...... Actually, he didn't believe it himself.

Originally, this matter was just in the past, who believes it or not, the emperor will not pursue it, what can others say?

But at this time, when Cheng Nuo took out such a serious thing and said this to him, how could it sound like poking him?

Shen Ce looked at Cheng Nuo's gaze and became a little unhappy, so he stopped asking and changed the topic: "Where does Mr. Cheng's grain exist now?" How is the delivery of the delivery of the goods? ā€

Cheng Nuo said according to what Mo Shaoli said in the letter: "Shen Sanye, what our businessmen pay attention to is to hand over the silver with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, so you can send the grain to the place designated by the third master according to the requirements of the third master, and the third master will give the goods silver after acceptance, and the silver money will be cleared." In addition, there is some charcoal in a certain tun, if the third master needs it, it can be sold to the third master. ā€

"And charcoal?" This was a surprise for Shen Ce.
