Chapter 582: Too Big an Appetite
Ye Chen's battle was neither big nor small, with a hundred guards, carrying two carts of gifts.
This is just to show his attitude, telling the family in Xiangyang City that he is going to cooperate with Cai Mao.
"Master Ye, welcome to the Humble House." Cai Mao greeted her at the gate of Cai's house.
"Master Cai, you're polite, how dare you bother the head of the Cai family to come out to greet you." Ye Chen said very politely.
"Come, this is the son-in-law of my Cai family and the head of the Huang family in Jingzhou, Huang Chengyan." Cai Mao introduced Ye Chen to a middle-aged man next to him.
Ye Chen looked at Huang Chengyan very curiously, about forty years old, wearing a long robe, very elegant, as if he was a teacher.
"Junior Ye Chen has seen Mr. Huang." Ye Chen used the gift of a junior to see Huang Chengyan, so Huang Chengyan corresponds not to the identity of the head of the Huang family, but to the identity of a famous person in Jingzhou, which is interesting.
If Ye Chen uses the identity of the head of the Ye family, then the two sides are equal, both are the identity of the head of the family, regardless of the other party's other identities, if you want to talk about other identities, only Liu Biao can be equal to him in the entire Jingzhou.
Why did Ye Chen use the gift of the juniors?
This Huang Chengyan is a bull, not only is he very knowledgeable, but his friends are also very powerful, and a Sima Hui can influence the entire Jingzhou bull.
Huang Chengyan was stunned for a moment, quickly reacted, stepped forward and said: "Ye Xiaoyou doesn't have to be polite, it's also an honor to be able to make Ye Xiaoyou." ”
was messed up by Ye Chen, Huang Chengyan didn't know how to call Ye Chen, he couldn't call him an official position or title, and people didn't use the identity of the head of the family to make friends with him, so he could only call him "Little Friend" in the end.
"Haha, everyone is fortunate to know each other, let's go, go in and have a good talk." Cai Mao laughed and welcomed the person in.
Ye Chen followed this Cai Mao into the Cai Mansion, the Cai Mansion is very large, and it does not lose to the Ye family, but the Ye family built the Ye Family Fort.
The banquet has been arranged, and several people are seated directly.
"Come, Master Ye, I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and toast you with your Ye family's Du Kang wine." Cai Mao said, holding up the wine glass.
"Okay, thank you for the hospitality." Several people drank a glass of wine.
The banquet went smoothly under the praise of several people, and halfway through, Cai Mao toasted Ye Chen again, and then said: "Master of the Ye family, this Ye family is not only good wine, but also a lot of good things." ”
As soon as Ye Chen heard it, he knew that the meaning was coming, he was halfway through the wine, and he had to say what he had to say.
"Haha, thank you for the love of the Cai family."
"Master of the Ye family, we have also cooperated before, this Ye family is not only Du Kang wine, but also tea, fur from the north, and now table salt, this is a business that makes people blush." Cai Mao said playfully.
At the beginning, the eight great families of Jingxiang went to Liaodong to congratulate him, including representatives of the Cai family, so the two families actually began to cooperate a long time ago.
"Could it be that this Cai Mao wants to get involved in my Ye family's other products?" Ye Chen guessed in his heart, but said in his mouth: "All the money earned is hard money, no matter what product it is, it will take a lot of manpower to produce, and it is not as stable as the Cai family has 10,000 acres of fertile land." ”
"The head of the Ye family is humble, my Cai family dare not say that it is the first in this Jingzhou, but few people can compare, if the two of us cooperate, I believe that each other's careers can have great development." Cai Mao said.
"Okay, since the head of the Cai family is so loving, then you can choose any one of my Ye family's products, in the entire Jingzhou, only the Cai family can operate, what do you think?" Ye Chen is also a big deal, no matter Cai Mao chooses Du Kang wine, tea, salt or fur from the north, there is a lot of profit, not to mention that Cai Mao can monopolize a state.
Jingzhou's wealth is not comparable to other states, and monopolizing such a state, the interests of the Cai family can be lost.
Therefore, Ye Chen gave absolutely enough sincerity.
Cai Mao didn't continue, but said: "Full of wine and food, why don't we come and taste the tea of the Ye family." ”
So the three of them moved the place and replaced it with fragrant tea in the living room, and the tea was the latest tea produced by the Ye family.
"Haha, Ye Xiaoyou, this thing produced by the Ye family, I love this tea alone, and it makes people intoxicated when I smell it." Huang Chengyan took a deep sniff and said.
Ye Chen also took a sip of tea, and then said: "This is simple, my Ye family also kept a few catties of high-grade products for themselves, and I will bring you two catties when I go back." ”
"Haha, then thank you Ye Xiaoyou."
Ye Chen turned his head again and asked, "I don't know if the Cai family master has thought about it?" ”
Ye Chen is not afraid that he will open his mouth, anyway, no matter what, he has a lot of money, and cooperating with Cai Mao's family can save a lot of things.
"I want shipping in the entire Yangtze River basin." Cai Mao said word by word.
"Uh..."
Ye Chen was about to answer, but when he heard it clearly, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
He wouldn't be surprised if Cai Mao wanted anything, but a shipping from the Yangtze River basin suddenly appeared, which caught Ye Chen off guard.
"Is the head of the Cai family kidding?" Ye Chen said coldly.
Cai Mao waved his hand and said: "It's definitely not a joke, what conditions can be discussed, but my Cai family must be shipping in the Yangtze River Basin." ”
Cai Mao said very resolutely, and the three of them were silent, and the atmosphere was a little solemn.
"What if I say no?" Ye Chen looked at Cai Mao coldly and said.
"Then the Ye family's ship cargo doesn't want to enter Jingzhou at all, let alone appear on the Yangtze River." Cai Mao was not weak at all, and glared back at Ye Chen and said.
This is a threat, a threat to eat fruits, but the Cai family has this confidence.
The Cai family controls the entire Jingzhou naval army, and its strength is very strong, and it is impossible for the Ye family to deal with the Cai family's naval army thousands of miles away.
"This Cai Mao is not stupid at all, she is very smart anyway, and she hit the nail on the head at once." Ye Chen thought while drinking tea.
"Cai Mao has the ability to let the Ye family's fleet appear in the Yangtze River, and other paths will also be greatly affected." Ye Chen thought in his heart.
"Master Cai, your appetite is too big, but it's not impossible, it's just that you have to pay the corresponding price." On this Yangtze River, Ye Chen couldn't beat Cai Mao, so he could only choose to compromise and strive for the greatest interests for himself at the same time.
Hearing this, Cai Mao laughed, he was not afraid to pay the price, if he could monopolize it, his profit would be unimaginable.
Originally, Cai Mao would not have thought of this, but the Ye family's fleet played too much role on the Yellow River in the battle against Dong this time, which made Cai Mao see the benefits, he controlled the entire Jingzhou naval army, so his ambitions swelled and wanted to control the entire Yangtze River basin.
Ye Chen controlled the Yellow River Basin, and then the Ye family was invincible, the products of the Ye family were transported by water and easily entered other places, and Cai Mao also wanted to try what it was like to control the entire Yangtze River Basin.
