PS: Strongly recommended by book friends, Han Han changed the name of the male protagonist, and the protagonist of this book is named Chen Hai in the future, and I forgot to explain it in the previous chapter.

Originally, Chen Hai was still worried about where to train the troops, after all, even if he chose the mountain, he at least had to go to the field to check it out in person, who knew that Han Datou, who had learned the news, rushed to recommend everyone to go to Liangshan.

Liangshan is about 50 miles away from Baishui County where it is currently located, lies between Heyang and Jucheng, winds for more than 100 miles, longitudes and lengths 24 peaks, there are small flying peaks and small west peaks on the east peak, the forms are different, it is really an excellent place for robbers to rob houses.

When the limelight was tight, Han Datou's six people hid there to avoid being pursued by various counties.

Sure enough, as soon as Han Datou described it, the eyes of Gu Yan Wang and the others lit up, and Chen Hai was not worried that Han Datou would trick him, and after a little hesitation, he set the mountain on Liangshan.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he directly distributed silver to buy axes, shovels and other items, and in addition to tools, the most expensive thing was food.

Chen Hai currently has about 1,500 taels of silver tickets in his hand, 60 taels are used to buy tools, and 1,200 taels are used to buy food, and only more than 200 taels are left on his body.

According to the grain price of three taels and five coins of silver and one stone in Baishui County, you can buy 342 stones, which is equivalent to about 60,000 catties in later generations, which is enough for a team of more than 200 people to eat for three months.

I thought it would be smooth to go out and spend money, after all, I was contributing to the GDP of Baishui County, but I still had a moth to buy food.

The only grain shop in Baishui County actually sat on the ground and raised the price, and yesterday it was still three taels and five dollars of silver, but today it has risen to four or seven dollars.

This is simply unreasonable, Chen Hai naturally refused to suffer this dumb loss, and immediately took someone to find the shopkeeper's theory.

The shopkeeper of the grain store is an old man surnamed Fan, who eats chubbyly, and when he speaks, he has two handfuls of eight-character beards, just like the guy who vomited blood in the Tang Bohu Autumn Fragrance that Chen Hai had seen in later generations.

This grain store is not small, but it is estimated that it is afraid of being robbed, there are several bags of samples in the store, including rice, white flour, millet, sorghum, etc., Xin Yibo led the two followers to reason with the shop guys.

"No matter how many people you come, the price of food is also this price, don't stare, at present, we have no harvest in Baishui for many years, and the grain is originally at a price per day, do you still use the old man to explain to you?"

It may be that seeing Chen Hai come in, the shopkeeper of the grain shop shrugged his shoulders and signaled that there was indeed no random price increase.

"Shopkeeper Fan, when I bought grain yesterday afternoon, it was still three or five dollars and a stone, and the price has risen so sharply today, is it too ugly to eat?

As far as I know, even if it is three or five dollars of silver and a stone, not many people can afford it in a day. Chen Hai said in an unkind tone.

As soon as he looked at the shopkeeper, Chen Hai concluded that he had encountered unscrupulous profiteers, businessmen who were seeking profits, and these grain sellers did not care about the lives of the people.

"The price of grain is set by my owner according to the actual situation, this is not the right to change the price arbitrarily, if it is too expensive, you can go to Cheng County to ask!"

Shopkeeper Fan turned his two cross-eyed eyes, and then pointed to the direction of Chengcheng in the east.

It really made Chen Hai right, thirty stone grain is a big business in Baishui County, and he sent someone to inquire last night and learned that it was a rich man who didn't know where he came from to give porridge.

At that time, Shopkeeper Fan was worried that these guys were gathering people to make trouble, but he never thought that he would buy thirty stones of grain and give it all silver.

This made the shopkeeper Fan feel at ease, how could there be a rebellion to rob the grain and return the silver, he was sure that the rich man was just kind.

Seeing that the rich man came to buy grain again, the shopkeeper Fan wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune, so that at the end of the month, the Fan family would come to take stock, and maybe there would be a chance to transfer him to a richer city.

"Fan Donglou! Don't think I don't know, the shop in Chengxian County is also your Fan family, and you have already colluded! The man who came with Xin Yibo said in a loud voice.

"That's it! The big boss, I think we should just rob him, and give him the silver? The other one was not angry.

"Bold! Do you know who the proprietor of this grain shop is? The Fan family has always marked the price clearly in business, if you dare to come nonsense, don't blame the old man for not reminding you! ”

When Shopkeeper Fan heard that these people wanted to rob him, although he was frightened in his heart, his face still looked very calm.

"The shopkeeper of the Fan family is from Shanxi, called Fan Yongdou." Shi Laosan whispered to Chen Haidao.

"Fan Yongdou? I don't know! Isn't it amazing? Chen Hai frowned, and he didn't remember if there was such a person at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

"We don't know the specifics, but I heard that the business is doing a lot, and it is all outside the border." Shi Lao Sandao.

"No matter where he goes, Lao Tzu is here to buy grain today, do you sell it or not?" Chen Hai didn't care about Fan Yongdou, he had been delayed in Baishui for two or three days, and he was worried that he would delay the officials and soldiers to find fault.

"This son, the business is naturally to be done, so let's do it, although the owner has set the price of four taels or seven dollars of silver, but in the next decision, I will calculate it for you according to four taels and five dollars, this is my greatest sincerity, I hope I will not be punished by the owner when I go back."

When Shopkeeper Fan heard that Chen Hai still wanted to buy it, his heart was suddenly settled, and he immediately pretended to think about Chen Hai.

"Three taels of silver and one stone! King Gu Hades, what are you waiting to do? Beckoning brothers to carry grain! Chen Hai yelled at King Gu Yan.

Shopkeeper Fan thought that Chen Hai would continue to lower the price, he was ready to continue to bargain, and finally set the final price at four taels of silver and one stone, although he made a little less, but this group of people looked a little tricky.

But I didn't expect Chen Hai to not play cards according to the routine at all, three taels of silver and one stone, which was the price of the year before last.

"Someone! It's all for the old man to come out, and someone is robbing the grain! Shopkeeper Fan saw seven or eight more people coming in Hula outside, and hurriedly ran towards the inner room.

There were only a few bags of samples on the shop, and the Fan family's grain was kept in the cellar in the backyard.

These people were carrying ghost knives in their hands, and they were not easy to mess with at first glance, Chen Hai's face did not change, and he went straight to the backyard of the grain store with more than a dozen people.

A swordsman seemed to see that Chen Hai was the head, holding a big knife and playing a set of tricks in front of the battle, playing a ghost head big knife with a supernatural appearance, and roaring in his mouth, intending to make Chen Hai retreat.

Bang –

Chen Hai took out a pistol and shot this man in the foot, and the man fell to the ground with a scream, covering his feet and crying.

"This is a warning, whoever moves will die!" Chen Hai pointed a gun at the remaining swordsmen and motioned to King Gu Yan to go down to the cellar to carry grain.

The cellar of the grain shop stored about six or seven hundred stones of grain, but Chen Hai only had four hundred stones removed.

He followed Shi Laosan's advice and only moved about 300 stone of rice noodles, and the rest was sorghum, millet, millet and other miscellaneous grains.

Fan Donglou sat on the side wiping his tears, Chai Zhi County of Baishui County didn't care about his grain shop at all, he thought that this was really the end of the matter, don't say that if he was transferred out of Baishui County, he would be fired directly.

The passing year is unfavorable, the passing year is unfavorable!

"The silver ticket plus these factors is a total of 1,200 taels, you count." Chen Hai asked people to move a wooden box to the shopkeeper Fan.

Shopkeeper Fan was stunned, he rolled up his sleeves and wiped his sweat and tears, and when he opened the box, he saw that there were silver ingots with white flowers and a few silver tickets worth 100 taels.

"This ...... This...... Old man...... Enough, enough. Fan Donglou stammered.

His mind was about to be confused, but he didn't know how much silver he had handled over the years, and he could tell how much silver he had in front of him at a cursory glance.

When Chen Hai heard this, he left the grain shop without looking back.

Fan Donglou picked up a piece of silver, weighed it, and was sure that these things were genuine official silver, and the tears came down again, and he chased him out and followed Chen Hai's back and said:

"Thank you, Childe! Thank you, Childe! ”

1,200 taels of silver was not given, because Chen Hai bought grain with 100 stone of miscellaneous grain noodles, and it was because of this that Fan Donglou finally kept his identity, and he sincerely thanked Chen Hai.

Chen Hai didn't look back, just waved his hand and planned to hide his merit and fame.

Alas, if Chen Hai also studied history in his previous life, knowing who this Fan Yongdou was, it is estimated that he would regret it when he touched his intestines.

After another hour, a team of more than 200 people finally purchased a set of tools, loaded a dozen carts of 400 stone grain, and the group headed in the direction of Liangshan.

After walking for a while, Chen Hai looked back at Baishui County again.

'I'm not a bandit,' Chen Hai muttered, and then beat his horse and headed towards Liangshan.
