Chapter 52: Borrowing Again

"Sold grain! Grain sold! One thousand and one hundred Chu coins per stone! ”

When the grain of the Yu family was transported to the city, it was just when it arrived, and it was the time when people came out to walk.

Xia Huan generously rented all the best shops in the area to the Yu family for selling grain.

And the Nanyang family, which had already been united, and the Yingshang family, their rice shops, had no competitors, and they were still closed.

"The grain is falling again?"

People who heard the news early in the morning seemed to be a little afraid to believe it.

Those who had no food left at home, or who were a little timid, had already taken the money and ran away to the shouting rice shops.

And some families who can survive it, or are more bold, are still watching.

The price of rice will drop again, one will spread ten, ten will pass hundred. Soon, the front of those rice shops in good locations was already crowded with people.

By the time the other rice shops learned the news, it was already more than half an hour later.

opened the door in a panic, and some of the rice shops had family members, and they hurriedly lowered the price. And the other part is to hurry back and ask who can be the master of the house.

However, in Yingshang County, it can also be said that every inch of land is gold.

Again, before that, rice shops weren't very valuable. As a result, the locations are somewhat remote.

It was expected that the Yingshang family would be able to make a lot of money, and they didn't think about moving the rice shop to a nest. Therefore, even if the price of these rice shops has dropped, there are still very few questions.

Gritting his teeth fiercely, many rice shops can only reduce the price again in order to attract more people.

At this time, in front of the rice shop on the street, it has become a pot of porridge.

Even if there are some big families, it is impossible to reintegrate the market with their own influence.

One of the main reasons is that they don't know where the new rice comes from.

No matter how much they inquired, they couldn't seem to find the owner of these rice shops.

Although most of the people in the rice shop were dressed in the clothes of the family or men, the group of sergeants Changxiu stopped everyone under the pretext of maintaining order.

handed over the money with one hand, and Chang Xiujun moved the goods and handed them over. It doesn't give people the slightest chance to get close to those families.

And those family members, naturally, didn't think so much, someone was willing to help, and they naturally wouldn't be stupid to object.

As for their master, Yu Gu was already regarded as a guest by Xia Huan, and as soon as he arrived in the county seat, he directly boarded the carriage and went straight to the county office.

Yu Gu can be said to have been forced to pull into the county office, although he was a little confused, but more, he was still reluctant.

After all, he is still quite anxious about the business of the rice shop.

However, as soon as he entered the door, Xia Huan greeted him personally, making him unable to vent his dissatisfaction.

"I've heard the demeanor of the Yu family for a long time, and when I saw the second son today, I just understood!" Xia Huan admired while holding Yu Gu's wrist and walked towards the yanei.

Although Xia Huan's age is a whole round younger than Yu Gu. However, his status as a prince still made Yu Gu dare not slack off at all.

His Highness smiled. I think that His Royal Highness's youthful posture can be seen alone, which is really rare! ”

Yu Gu, who was photographed by Xia Huan for a lot of horses, of course, had to pay two respects.

However, hearing such words, Xia Huan seemed to be even more happy.

"Zhaoming! Zhaoming! Xia Huan shouted at the top of his throat.

"Your Highness!"

Soon, Chen Zhaoming ran out of the back office.

"Quick, go and set a table for Benjun. Benjun wants to personally pick up the wind and wash the dust for Yu Gongzi! By the way, bring the skills you learned in the army, too! ”

Chen Zhaoming glanced at Yu Gu quietly, and then quickly nodded in response: "Huh! ”

For Chen Zhaoming, Yu Gu didn't look at it much, plus the ordinary clothes Chen Zhaoming was wearing, he just regarded him as a little cook in the house.

Just a moment later, Chen Zhaoming ran back and said that the banquet had been prepared.

The two of them had just chatted for a while, and the table in front of them was soon filled with all kinds of wine and food.

Yingshang is worthy of being a place where business and travel gather.

Although because of the flood and the plague, many people ran away. However, there is still a level of cooking in the city.

It just so happened that Yu Gu, who arrived at Yingshang early in the morning, had not yet eaten, and couldn't help but see the exquisite food, and his index finger moved.

"Zhaoming, you've been busy for so long, sit down together and add another table!" Xia Huan waved his hand and motioned for Chen Zhaoming to stay.

And now, Yu Gu on the side found that something was wrong.

The etiquette on the table can be said to be a tradition in China since ancient times. What kind of person and what kind of position you sit in is extremely important.

If Chen Zhaoming was really an ordinary servant, it would definitely be impossible to sit with them.

Yu Gu, who knew that he had lost his manners before, hurriedly stood up and asked Xia Huan, "Your Highness, I don't know ...... this son?"

"Hehe, I forgot to introduce it." Xia Huan also put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "This is the son of my captain of Chuxingmen, Chen Zhaoming." Born in the Shenwu Army, he has been in the position of centurion in two years. If it weren't for my brother's concern for my safety and specially asked my father to transfer him to my side, I'm afraid it won't be long before the military commander can sit down. ”

Xia Huan's casual introduction, listening to Yu Gu's ears, was amazing.

Chuxing Gate is the main gate of the imperial palace. Its lieutenant Chen An, who is far away in the Yu family in Jiangdong, has also heard of it.

Moreover, looking at Chen Zhaoming's appearance, he is only in his twenties, and he can already become the centurion of the Shenwu Army. is also a real talent.

You must know that the Shenwu Army is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, not to mention its high status, and its combat power is the leader of the Chu State, and it is definitely not something that can be mixed up by relying on relationships.

The most important thing is that this person was given by Xia Huan's "brother", as for which brother it was, Yu Gu didn't have to think about it.

After Yu Gu hurriedly saluted Chen Zhaoming, he asked quietly, "It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still cares about His Highness very much. is willing to send such a talent as Major General Chen to His Royal Highness. ”

When Xia Huan heard this, he also nodded with emotion, and then sighed lightly and said, "Among the Shoudu, most of the brothers are divided. Only the fourth brother and the third emperor brother are still in Shoudu. After all, a mother's fellow mother! ”

Xia Huan stopped ordering, and then ate the food as if nothing happened.

On the contrary, it was Yu Gu on the side, and after hearing about it, he had a different kind of thought in his heart.

To be honest, Xia Huan's reputation is really not big. Even, it can be said that among the seven sons of Emperor Chu, Xia Huan is the most famous.

Before, Xia Huan didn't think it was anything, after all, this was also what he took the initiative to get.

However, if you want to deal with these families, it is not enough to be a prince, even if he is a prince.

can't give enough benefits to the family, they, at best, are just verbal respect.

However, at this time, how could Xia Huan create the power of the court, there was no way, he could only use the old method, that is, to take advantage of the situation.

However, it is clear that this trick has been tried and tested. After all, Xia Huan is the prince of the prince and the younger brother of the crown prince.

In this era of great importance to blood, a mother and a compatriot represent a natural camp, and there is no way to get rid of it.

Especially this Chen Zhaoming, it strengthened the idea in Yu Gu's heart.

Therefore, in Yu Gu's heart, it is obvious that Xia Huan and the crown prince Xia Yan have been marked as equal.
