Chapter 245: Merchant Gao Yi

At the gate of the county government, the dusty Jin Cheng knelt on the ground, and his three sons Jin Yan, Jin Wu, and Jin Xu knelt behind him in a row.

There were Wang Ming, Yang Xuan and others around him, and he kept persuading them to do anything, but Jin Cheng didn't say a word, just kept shaking his head, his face was sad and ashamed.

"Brother Jin, what are you doing here? Hurry up. "Qin Wanggang arrived, and what he saw was such a scene. He quickly jumped off his horse and stretched out his hand to go to the city of Lajin.

As soon as Jincheng saw Qin Wang, his face was bitter, and he burst into tears in an instant, "Brother Xian, Jincheng was entrusted by you, but he did something wrong, I'm sorry for you, and I'm even more sorry for the people of Chicheng, I'm here to receive death!" A handful of old Jin Cheng cried so loudly that his forehead slammed on the ground, and he said while crying loudly.

Seeing Jincheng's appearance, Qin Wang's nose was sour, and he almost burst into tears, "Big brother, it's no wonder you, it's no wonder you." You three don't hurry up and pull your father up! ”

Qin Forget comforted Jin Cheng while scolding the three "nephews" in the back, and the four of them talked together and pulled Jin Cheng up, "Brother Jin, this is not the place to talk, let's go inside and talk in detail." ”

In Qin Wang's study, Jin Cheng sat on the seat and felt remorseful, "Alas! I didn't expect the head of the family to be so ruthless, he agreed to cooperate with the virtuous brother, and gave me 200,000 taels of silver, how did I know that they were trying to stabilize me? After staying in the Jin family for a few days, I accidentally learned that they had sent someone to contact Huang Jinshan with a heavy gift, Brother Xian, eldest brother is sorry for you. As he spoke, Jincheng's tears fell again.

"Okay, Brother Jin, there is a debtor who has been wronged, you can't blame you for this matter, no one wants to do this." Qin Forget patted Jin Cheng's hand and comforted.

"Brother Xian, big brother has a ...... in my heart" Jin Cheng patted his chest, sad and speechless.

Jincheng, who left the Jin family very early, is different from other merchants. In business, although he is also very treacherous in business, this person attaches great importance to credibility and is warm-hearted, otherwise he would not have become a good friend with Chen Wan'er. Over the years, he has relied on his reputation and character, and he has made a lot of friends, and his business has become bigger and bigger. He was just a businessman, and he never thought he would kill so many people because he did something wrong. These days, his heart is like burning in a fire, and he is going crazy.

"Okay, big brother, don't you think my brother is good? Revenge, we will take revenge slowly. How did I hear that you brought tens of thousands of refugees here, what's going on? Qin Forget was also deeply moved by Jin Cheng in his heart, and couldn't bear to see him in such pain, so he quickly changed the topic.

"I recruited them on the road." Thinking of the tens of thousands of people he brought, Jincheng's attention was indeed successfully diverted.

began to recount his experience.

It turned out that Jin Cheng had lived in the Jin family for more than ten days, and he had not been summoned by the head of the family again. couldn't help but be secretly suspicious in his heart, he kept an eye on his heart, and inquired in every possible way, and finally knew that the head of the family had already sent Jin Li to ask for a meeting with heavy gifts, and the purpose was very simple, that is, to quickly occupy the Yellow River waterway.

He was in a hurry, and with a fine softness, he ran out of Jin's house overnight. It's just that before the others arrived in Qi State, they got the news that Huang Mingbing besieged Chicheng. The news frightened him, and it was not only his virtuous brother who was there, but also his three sons. As soon as he entered Yan Kingdom, he went straight to his home in Jizhou, disposed of all the shops and business inventory as quickly as possible, found a familiar officer, bought hundreds of sets of armor and weapons, and armed all his family, and went straight to Chicheng to come desperately.

But the group was too ostentatious, and they were detained by the Jizhou army before they left Jizhou, and this detention was more than half a month, and they were almost punished for treason. It was still a few previous business friends who were involved in many activities, and he was released after paying more than half of his family wealth, and his weapons and armor were naturally confiscated. Soon after he came out, he heard that Akagi was defending, but with heavy casualties. Jincheng thought that Akagi would definitely need a lot of food after the war, so he purchased a large amount at a high price. But before they could go far, they were embellished with many refugees, and the further north they went, the more refugees came, not only could they not get rid of it, but there were several conflicts in the middle, and many people died.

Seeing this situation, Jincheng thought about it, Akagi is not only short of food, but also must be short of people, and it seems that the food can't be delivered, so it is better to simply put grain generously and take these people to Akagi. But there were still many magistrates blocking the way on this road, and Jincheng dragged the relationship while sending silver, so he stopped and stopped and finally arrived in Akagi.

Jincheng said it easily, but Qin Wang and the others were terrified when they heard it, there must have been a lot of thrills along the way, Jincheng didn't tell everyone, just like Jizhou was imprisoned, and the conflict of refugees. It sounds like a great escape.

Qin Wang's eyes moistened unconsciously, not to mention the thrills on the road, that is, Jincheng was willing to scatter all his family wealth for him, which was enough for him to be grateful for a lifetime.

He slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Jin Cheng, "Big brother Gaoyi, it's not that you're sorry for me, it's that my brother is sorry for you." ”

"No, no, Brother Xian, the matter started because of me, the eldest brother is just atoning for his sins, and he can't afford to be a gift from the virtuous brother." Jin Cheng quickly stood up and grabbed Qin Wang's shoulder and said emotionally.

"Okay, the owner, Boss Jin, don't be sensational, our brothers are alive and getting together is the biggest happy event, the wine banquet is ready, the owner, let's wash the dust of Boss Jin!" Yang Xuan joked beside him.

"Okay, big brother, let's go, brother will salute you a few bowls!" Qin Forget took Jin Cheng's hand and took the lead in walking out.

Walking in the refugee camp that had just settled down, Qin Forget didn't expect Jincheng to bring him such a big surprise.

There were a lot of refugees, 25,000 of them, and almost all of them were young and strong between 15 and 45, with only a very small number of old and weak women and children. After all, after walking thousands of miles, only young people can persevere.

"Big brother has really helped me a lot, although food is very scarce, but population is more critical. You don't know how short of people we are in Akagi right now. Qin Forget said happily to Jin Cheng.

"It's just a coincidence, Brother Xian, why is it that the closer I get to Akagi, the fewer refugees are willing to come with me. You know, the further north you go, the more refugees there are. Jin Cheng asked curiously.

Qin Forget smiled bitterly, "Isn't that Golden Mountain the trouble?" As soon as he released the officials and troops to my Akagi, those ordinary people thought I was a bandit, who would dare to come to Chicheng? And last time I killed people too hard, which frightened the people. ”

Jin Cheng nodded, "What Brother Xian did is not wrong, if you don't kill it, it's not enough to deter Xiaoxiao." Brother, I'm afraid I don't have much food, right? ”

"Big brother is wise, my Akagi foundation is thin, and now there is not much food, and there are still many people who will move over after a while. Is there any way that Big Brother can't do it? Qin Forget frowned and asked.

"I'm a merchant, and I can only think of ways to go out and buy it, but we're empty-handed, and we don't have much money. To be honest, those friends who helped me this time are only out of morality and previous feelings, and when it comes to business, I am afraid that they can only do business, and I am afraid that they will not be too preferential when buying food from them. "Jincheng is also in a difficult situation.

"Big brother, if I promise them that once the tea and horse market opens, they will not be charged any road fees, and give them priority to use the docks, warehouses and other facilities, will they give us a batch of supplies for free?" Qin Wang's heart moved and asked.

Jin Cheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately became excited, "Then they will definitely agree, or there is no one in the world who will not agree, everyone knows what this means." It's just that, Brother Xian, you have suffered too much like this, and the longer it takes, the greater your loss. ”

"Hehe, the truth is seen in danger, they lend a helping hand to the eldest brother when he is in danger, and they are kind to the eldest brother, that is, they are kind to Akagi. The younger brother returned this favor for the eldest brother, and I don't care if I don't suffer a loss. Such privileges, which I only give to our friends, others, are hard to buy. Qin Forget smiled slightly and said indifferently.

Hearing Qin Forget say this, Jin Cheng was very moved, Qin Forget wanted to repay his kindness for him, which not only gave him enough face in front of the world's businessmen, but also regarded him as his own brother.
