Chapter Ninety-Two: The Afterlife is Terrifying

Now is the time when there is no harvest, even if there is money, it is difficult to buy food, not to mention that General Lu has no money in his hands at all, so he has to turn to the Fujian capital commander for help. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the situation was not ideal, and the Japanese side was like having an internal response, not only robbing the grain sent by Gao Tai, but also making General Lu suffer defeat.

General Lu took office as a new officer, and urgently needed a few fires to Zhentai, but every time he was in battle, he was always powerless, and in a hurry, he personally led a group of men and horses to start a face-to-face battle with the Japanese people, who thought that he was accidentally ambushed by the enemy, and the whole army was annihilated.

When the news came out, it shocked the government and the opposition.

The lady of the Yao family in the palace proposed to the emperor to let Yao Zheng make meritorious contributions.

After Yao Zheng became the commander of the Quanzhou Wei Dynasty, he really understood the difficulties of being an official.

Not to mention anything else, just the military salary, since he took office, he has not paid a penny at all in the past few years, and as for the grain and grass, it is either moldy or short of two catties, not to mention weapons. Otherwise, he wouldn't have set up a private casino.

From the moment he joined forces with Hangzhou to deal with Old Man Ye, he knew that the two families would definitely be in a situation of endless death in the future, but he didn't expect that Chu Li, who was only fourteen years old, not only saw through his plan, but also made him have no power to fight back at all.

Not only that, but the Chu family even cut off many businesses under his name, and even if he is now in prison, I am afraid that he will also have the hand of the Chu family.

Speaking of which, it's all to blame for his underestimation of his opponent, and now it's too late to regret it.

However, although Yao Zheng was imprisoned, he was not convicted, and although Yao Meiren's rank was not high, she gave birth to a son for the emperor, and the old emperor was naturally very proud, so he directly let Yao Meiren's rank be promoted again and again, and now she is Concubine Yao.

When Concubine Yao learned that Yao Zheng was imprisoned, she didn't plead, but often cried alone.

However, the more she was like this, the more the emperor felt that he couldn't be too wronged by this new favorite, and listened to her suggestion that Yao Zheng should be guilty of meritorious service, and he agreed directly without thinking about it.

Of course, the emperor still puts the country first, and although he is particularly generous to the beauties, he removes Yao Zheng from the position of acting general.

But the dragons cannot be leaderless, not to mention the war-torn Quanzhou, so someone recommended Old Man Ye.

"His grandfather is the four-rank Weilie general who was named by Tai and his ancestors, and it goes without saying that he is loyal to His Majesty, and his sister is Mrs. Anguo, who is both civil and military, and witty, otherwise General Qian would not have trusted Ye Qianhu so much, although he has now been removed from the post of Qianhu, but in the final analysis, he was dragged down by his son. Although he himself is suspected of not governing his family strictly, there is an old saying that 'good bamboo shoots produce bad bamboo shoots'......"

The deeds of Mrs. Shan Anguo, the emperor has already heard it more than a hundred times, and he has already been a little moved, and when it comes to being dragged down by his son, this one will inevitably think of his unsuccessful sons, and his heart will be a little looser.

Now send someone over, first, it is too late, and second, you are not familiar with the local environment, so it is better to use a veteran to rest assured.

An 800 urgent letter of appointment was sent by Bianliang, and he arrived in Fujian in a few days.

Old Man Ye also had a headache when he received the appointment.

Without food, this battle can't be fought at all, and General Lu is going strangely, Old Man Ye also suspects that there are Japanese people in the city, but he has been out of the army for a long time, although a few thousand households will still help him speak, but Yao Zheng still installed a lot of his own people when he took office, and every year there are new recruits in the army, so many people to find one or two internal responses, undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack.

Old Man Ye was frowning, but someone came to report, "Fourth Prince Chu asks to see." ”

"Please!" Old Man Ye was overjoyed.

Chu Li said straight to the point: "The old man is worried about food? ”

Old Man Ye nodded, "Could it be that you brought food here?" ”

"Exactly."

Chu Li was in Fujian, and he was already doing the business of grain and herbs in the army, and he was able to bring food, and Old Man Ye was not surprised at all.

"But the ugly words are ahead, and when this battle is won, we will increase the supply by 20%."

Grain and grass is such an important matter, no matter who is in office, it will not be handed over to one family, whether it is Yao Zheng or General Qian, even the Chu family, which can only account for two percent before.

Now Chu Li directly proposed to add two percent, and Old Man Ye also responded cheerfully, "Okay, if you can really win this game, forty percent is not too much." "In this environment, it is not easy to trust him to win this battle and bring food over." It would be even better if you could sell us some more weapons. ”

Chu Li shook his head and said: "Yungui has had good weather in the past two years, and there is no shortage of grain and grass, so it will be difficult to ask for weapons." After speaking, he laughed again, "Why should the old man embarrass me, isn't it easier for you to find the Zeng family to buy it?" ”

Old Man Ye shook his head and said, "Since the last time, Zeng Fat has not appeared for a long time, this matter is too urgent, and it is too late to send people now." ”

Chu Li said: "A friend just asked me to buy a batch of ironware, which happened to be placed in Quanzhou City and not taken away. ”

Old Man Ye said secretly: How can such a thing as ironware, which is in short supply, still stay in the city and not take it, it must be that Chu Li bought it in advance, waiting for this day to come, so that he can make some windfalls. ”

But this kind of wealth, only he dares to make it.

First, it is difficult to find a seller of ironware, secondly, it requires a lot of capital investment, and thirdly, it is necessary to find a suitable buyer in the shortest possible time. Of course, there needs to be a secret place to store these weapons.

"You are clever enough to know that the Japanese are coming to attack Quanzhou!" Old Man Ye's pupils shrank suddenly.

If the Japanese should really be the Chu family, even if Chu Li had helped him, he was not ready to let him go.

Chu Li seemed to know what Old Man Ye was thinking, and laughed, "Old man, Chu can't do anything about bullying the same clan with outsiders." Those iron tools were asked for by the Dong family in Jiangxi, and they were only sent over a few years ago, but I haven't come here yet, the war has already started, and we haven't had a chance to transport them away. If Yao Zheng is the commander, I may double the money, as for you, we have done it together many times, just double the purchase price, what do you think? ”

Chu Li's mother was originally a saintess of the Wu clan, and the world was so chaotic, it would make sense that they would buy iron, but doubling the money made Old Man Ye's flesh hurt too much, but he still gritted his teeth and responded.

Without weapons, it is useless to have someone.

"How is the old man going to fight this battle?"

Master Ye refused to talk about this matter, "Since I have learned such expensive things as you, I always have to take them first." ”

Chu Li was also refreshed, "Okay, the world is not peaceful, put it here for me, I don't feel hot." ”

When the things were brought back, Old Man Ye knew that the things were originally placed in the cellar under Chu Li's newly opened restaurant.

"The future is terrifying, I didn't expect this kid to be so bold." Old Man Ye sighed.
