Along the way, the three of them learned from each other, and they made much progress than before.

While Ye Chen was practicing the halberd method, he watched Guan Yu and Tai Shi Ci compete in martial arts, and he had a deeper understanding of martial arts, which made him practice the halberd method a lot faster.

The rest of the journey went very smoothly and nothing happened.

A few days later, Ye Chen finally returned to the Ye family, and after settling Guan Yu down, Ye Chen hurried to find out about Ye Chen's current situation.

"Young family master, after you left, our Ye family has been harassed a lot, and some of our Ye family's project progress and Du Kang wine projects have been affected."

After Ye Chen found Wu Xian, he received this bad news.

"Why is this happening, my Ye family helped them suppress the bandits, and as soon as the bandits were cleaned up, they dared to stumble on me behind my back." Ye Chen said very angrily.

"Yes, young master, it is true." After Ye Chen left, Wu Xian dealt with it very hard.

"Be specific." Calming down, Ye Chen knew that he had to solve the matter before he could consider other issues.

"First, we don't have enough of our own transportation team, many of them are hired by others, and they suddenly withdraw, and the progress of our projects slows down all of a sudden. The second is that our Du Kang wine bottles are specially fired, and the output of our own kiln is simply not enough, and many of them are also entrusted to other families to help fire, and after completing the last batch a few days ago, they collectively said that they would no longer accept orders from our Ye family. ”

"Bang"

Ye Chen was furious, slapped the table, and said angrily: "How can this be reasonable?"

At the beginning, in order to let the Ye family suppress the bandits, all the families were very good to the Ye family, and as soon as the bandits in Liaodong were lifted, they came to trouble the Ye family.

"You know who's behind it."

"I don't know," Wu Xian said helplessly.

Ye Chen didn't blame Wu Xian, the information of the Ye family was in Ye Chen's hands, and he had now discovered the shortcomings, but there was no way at present.

It is indeed not easy for Wu Xian to be responsible for so many things of the Ye family, and now that he is back, he can't let them continue to be troubled.

"Go find Liu Qi and Wang Tianhammer."

I can't ask Wu Xian much, Ye Chen estimates that Wu Xian has been dealing with this sudden change recently, and he doesn't have much time to find the people behind the scenes.

If the progress of the Ye family's project slows down, the impact is that the loss of the Ye family will be greater, and they will pay a lot more wages. But this is not fatal to the Ye family, what is really fatal is the project of the Ye family's Du Kang wine.

Before the Ye family promised, how much Du Kang wine wanted, if it was suddenly out of stock, people paid so much agency fees, they would definitely be unwilling, if this thing really happened, the Ye family would inevitably lose a lot.

Wu Xian went to order someone to call Liu Qi and Wang Tianhammer over, and he returned to the study.

"How did you deal with the Du Kang thing?"

"At present, we still have enough stock, I have asked people to work overtime for twelve hours, and I have given you enough overtime pay according to your requirements, and I have ordered people to rebuild several pottery workshops that fire wine bottles." Wu Xian explained his arrangements to Ye Chen.

"Then according to your estimate, can this catch up, is there any danger that my Ye family will run out of stock."

"According to the current situation, my Ye family is indeed in danger of running out of stock, because the newly built pottery workshop is not so fast, and there is also a shortage of manpower."

"You can immediately arrange apprentices to study in the current pottery workshop, and strive to start construction immediately after the new one is built, in addition, I ordered to go down and go to a big place in Yuxian County to build a big pottery field, and in the future, our Ye family must ensure that they have enough supplies, and they can no longer let people get stuck in their necks."

Now that the Ye family is so passive when they are subject to talents, in order to consider it in the future, Ye Chen has to do this.

"Young master, isn't he in Xiangping? Why do you want to go to such a remote place in Yuxian County? "Wu Xian is very strange, if this is transported from Yuxian County, it is time-consuming and laborious, and it is not cost-effective.

"Yu County, in the future, it will be my Ye family's territory, and it will also be the Ye family's strategic focus in the future." Ye Chen didn't explain much, but just told Wu Xieyu County that it would be very important in the future.

In fact, in addition to being so convenient in Yuxian County, Ye Chen also hopes to build a big ship in the future, and he can transport his family's Dukang wine to the south by sea.

"Yes, young master." Wu Xian understood very well that Ye Chen had already made a major decision, and he could not oppose it, so he could only obey, so he didn't say anything else.

After more than half an hour, Liu Qi and Wang Tianhammer arrived.

"Young Master"

After the two of them met, Ye Chen asked them to sit down.

"Liu Qi, Wang Tianhammer, in the future, any commercial information can be reported to the core personnel of the Ye family."

"Yes, young master." The two replied in unison, knowing what Ye Chen meant.

This is a business thing that can be known to other people, and they must be made aware of it, otherwise they won't know how to deal with it if they are not there.

But Ye Chen must grasp the intelligence, because Ye Chen may become a force in the future, and intelligence will be very important at that time, and this kind of thing cannot be easily handed over to others.

"Tell me, what's going on, you know who is behind the scenes."

Wang Tianhammer sorted out his thoughts and said: "Back to the young master, we found out that this incident has a lot to do with Chunxianglou. ”

"Chunxiang Building? Do we have any conflict with them? Why did you start behind our Ye family's back? ”

"Young family master, according to the news we got is this, because the appearance of our restaurant and Du Kang wine has made Chunxianglou lose a lot of business, so they will take revenge on our Ye family." Liu Qi explained to Ye Chen.

"Will we compete with Chunxianglou? Our restaurant doesn't sell girls. Ye Chen didn't react for a while, and said suspiciously.

"Young masters, that's the case, because the people who go to Chunxianglou to consume are rich masters, and they don't want to eat anything else after eating the wine and food in our restaurant, so when they go to Chunxianglou, they are all packed from our Ye family restaurant, it turns out that the wine and food in Chunxianglou are more expensive, and the profit is not low, after our Ye family robbed the wine and food business, their income is at least one-third less, or even more."

Liu Qi's explanation, Ye Chen understood, it turned out that his own restaurant really had a competitive relationship with Chunxiang Building, but Ye's restaurant belonged to normal business competition, and Chunxiang Lou was not very kind.

"You know the people behind Chunxiang Building."

Although Ye Shao often went to Chunxiang Building before the crossing, he never cared who opened Chunxiang Building, and now Ye Chen has been there once since he crossed over, and he has nothing to do with Chunxiang Building, and he doesn't need to investigate who opened this Chunxiang Building.

"Young family master, this Chunxiang Building is opened by the Zhang family in Jixian County." Wang Tianhammer specially investigated, and then hurriedly said to Ye Chen.

"What! The Zhang family in Jixian County, the head of the family is called Zhang Bin? Ye Chen's reaction was very big, which made everyone present a little surprised, because Ye Chen had always been quite steady.

"Young family master, the head of the Zhang family in Jixian County is indeed called Zhang Bin, is there any problem?" Liu Qi asked later, he was afraid that he was not doing his job well and that something was wrong.

"When I went to Jixian County, I had a conflict with his little two sons, beat them, and then on the way back they were ambushed by 3,000 people, we killed them, at that time I thought he was avenging his son, but I didn't expect that they started to act as soon as I left Liaodong, it seems that they have been planning for a long time, but they didn't dare to do it before we suppressed bandits in Liaodong."

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, this commercial competition belongs to commercial competition, and the other party actually wants to kill himself, so Ye Chen has nothing to worry about.

When everyone heard that there was such a thing, they were a little afraid, they didn't expect that the other party would arrange three thousand men and horses to ambush Ye Chen, but fortunately, Ye Chen and their party had great ability to fight back.

"Wu Xian, you immediately arrange for someone to take over Chunxiang Building, and take over the other Zhang family's properties in Liaodong to me, and release all their people to me, don't embarrass them."

"Young master, won't this cause trouble?" Wu Xian asked with some concern.

"It's okay, I believe that the Zhang family sent someone to ambush me will soon spread here, morality is here, and no one in the official face will trouble us, I went to see Lord Assassin Shi before, and reached some cooperation agreements with him, and will support us, besides, this Zhang family does not dare to sue, no one will stand up for him."

Now in this imperial court, Ye Chen is really not afraid, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.

"Okay, young master, then I'll arrange it."

"Slow down first, the progress of this project has been slowed down and the matter of Du Kang wine must be solved first, otherwise my Ye family will be in trouble, this time I went to see the assassin Shi, and talked about the business of a state, if I don't solve it quickly, my Ye family will be very troublesome."

"Yes, young master, I don't know if there is any other solution."

"The project is relatively simple, my Ye family hurried up to make vehicles, and I can also buy some from other families with better relationships, we are not short of people now, and Du Kang will recycle the wine bottles."

"Recycle the bottle?"

"Yes, let a special person recycle the empty wine bottles, or you can entrust the family that sells our Du Kang wine to help collect them, how much a wine bottle will cost, you calculate; We have to tell those families about the difficulties we are facing, and I believe they will cooperate. ”

"That's okay, it's just that the young family master, will those people use this matter to put pressure on our Ye family." Wu Xian said with a little worry.

"I'm not afraid of this, if it gets out of control, my Ye family will refund the agency fee, and I won't sell them Du Kang wine in the future, and now our Ye family's Du Kang wine is not worried about selling, so don't worry."

As soon as Ye Chen said it, Wu Xian was relieved, too, now Du Kang wine is afraid that it will not be produced, and he is really not afraid that it will not be sold.

Ye Chen assigned some more tasks and let them leave.

Through this matter, Ye Chen felt that his intelligence network had to be expanded, and he needed to be more professional, but now there are no corresponding talents, so he can only wait first, but he can first spread to the unexpected place in Liaodong.
