Chapter 403: Eating Inside and Out

After half a month of traveling, Yan Bing very smoothly mobilized six buyers to cooperate with the Liaodong Army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As Yan Bing inferred at the beginning, after the soybean purchase war began, when others offered a purchase price of two taels of silver and one quintal, these six buyers directly offered the purchase price of two taels and one yuan of silver.

Not only that, more than 30 purchasing teams directly pulled carts, carried silver, and dispersed to the people's doorsteps to buy soybeans at prices that exceeded last year.

Because the price is high, and it is a head start. Although other acquirers have followed suit and raised their purchase prices. Most of the people who grow soybeans still send soybeans to these six grain merchants for sale.

What's more, when other buyers have raised the price to two taels of silver.

Behind these six were the buyers of the Liaodong Army, and they immediately raised the purchase price to two taels of silver. “

When the other buyers were not willing to lag behind and kept raising the purchase price to 224 yuan of silver, they no longer had the courage to raise the price further in the face of the purchase price of 224 silver from the six buyers.

Because, the purchase price of two or three cents of silver is already the break-even price of their capital minus the storage and transportation costs.

If they urgently need to raise the purchase price, they will lose all their money when they sell the soybeans to the Japanese for two or five cents.

As a result, these buyers can only watch the soybeans enter the warehouses of the six grain merchants.

When the oil mill controlled by the Japanese received the news that the buyer was going to continue the price war and be sure to receive the soybeans.

More than half of the soybeans in the Northeast have all fallen into the hands of these six grain merchants.

If you add the soybeans received by the 30 purchasing teams outside, more than 60% of the soybeans in the entire Northeast must be there.

The acquisition war for half a month came to an end, because the Liaodong Army suddenly intervened and caught the Japanese off guard.

Six soybean buyers, each with more than 200,000 quintals of soybeans in their warehouses.

Yan Bing, who personally led this victory, was very happy.

Immediately return to Liaozhong to raise silver and prepare to trade outside the city of Shenyang.

At this moment, because of Yan Bing's good performance in the soybean purchase war, she has been appointed by Yang Xingguo as the vice minister of business and economy.

Anyone who understands a little bit knows it. Yang Xingguo and Zhou Zhongju's value for Yan Bing is that as long as Yan Bing sends more than one million quintals of soybeans back to Liaozhong, the position of Minister of Commerce and Economy will be hers.

Therefore, although Qin Haotian still occupies the position of acting minister. But none of the subordinates of the Ministry of Economic Affairs paid attention to him, and all of them gathered around Yan Bing to discuss this thrilling transaction battle.

"Bastard, I want you to know that there is a price to pay for humiliating me......" Qin Haotian thought secretly in his heart.

However, he did not show it with hatred in his heart. walked to Yan Bing's side with a calm face, wanting to know more about the news that could be used to retaliate against Yan Bing.

When he learned that the Liaodong Army behind him had escorted 300,000 taels of silver and was about to go to Fengtian to make the first transaction with the buyer, Qin Haotian's heart full of anger immediately became active.

In the dead of night, Qin Haotian left the barracks alone and disappeared into the night. It wasn't until dawn the next day that Qin Hao returned to the camp with a tired face.

Regarding Qin Haotian's abnormality, Yan Bing and the others didn't show much worry even if they felt it.

In order to guarantee the smooth operation of the first transaction.

Commander Yang Xingguo directly transferred a company to be responsible for everyone's safety, and in the face of more than 100 well-equipped officers and soldiers of the Liaodong Army around him, Yan Bing was confident. There will be no surprises throughout the transaction.

The next day, the convoy carrying 300,000 taels of silver had already reached the vicinity of Shenyang.

Because there was still one day before the trading time, Yan Bing ordered everyone to stay at the trading point for one night without thinking about it.

However, at this moment, a conspiracy against Yan Bing began.

A large bag of drugs was mixed into everyone's dinner by Qin Haotian without anyone noticing.

The final result was not unexpected, by nine o'clock in the evening, except for Qin Haotian, there was no one else in the camp.

Qin Haotian's eyes lit up, and a treacherous smile appeared on his face.

Subsequently. Immediately light three torches to signal to those who are working with you outside the camp.

Soon, a group of middle-aged people dressed in ordinary people's clothes poured into the barracks.

Although these people are not wearing military uniforms, but. From the sophisticated equipment of each of them carrying a rifle on their backs, coupled with their orderly training. As long as anyone with a little common sense can be sure, these people must not be ordinary bandits.

Seeing someone coming, Qin Haotian, who was guarding the barracks, immediately greeted him and said excitedly.

"General Wang, you are finally here. They had been stunned for two hours. I'm afraid they'll wake up at any time. ”

General Wang, who was also dressed as an ordinary person, replied excitedly: "Don't worry, the drugs I gave you are enough to charm them for one night...... Tell me, where is all the money you have brought? ”

The cautious Qin Haotian didn't answer immediately, but asked the middle-aged man with a serious face, "I hope General Wang, you don't forget our agreement last night?" ”

"Yes, 300,000 taels of silver will give you 10,000 taels, and then help you take a woman away. We will do what we say, tell me where the silver is......" The middle-aged man replied without thinking.

Soon, the 300,000 taels of silver that Yan Bing used to trade and himself were taken away by this group of unknown forces.

At the same time, the well-equipped guards were all taken away by the red-eyed General Wang.

"What, Yan Bing, Qin Haotian, the equipment of the guard company, and 300,000 taels of silver have all been lost, how is this possible?" The headquarters of the Liaodong Army, Yang Xingguo, who got the news, asked with an incredulous face.

"Commander, it's all true, according to the reports of the people who came back, they were all drugged that night and couldn't wake up. Someone must have drugged them for dinner, and that man was among the people who were on their way to the deal. ”

Yang Xingguo is not a fool, and he immediately heard the meaning of Zhou Zhongju's words.

After a short hesitation, he asked Zhou Zhongju directly, "Is it Qin Haotian or Yan Bing?" Now the two of them disappeared without a trace, and one of them must have done it. Also, if no one cooperates, it is impossible for them to take away so much silver, weapons and ammunition in one night, check it immediately, I want to know immediately who dared to attack my Liaodong Army at this time. ”

"There are already some traces, but the identity of the other party is difficult to figure out......"

"Although more than 100 people have been drugged, one soldier has been in a coma because he has diarrhea and eats less."

"According to his report, we are sure that the person who took the drug is Qin Haotian......"

"As for Yan Bing, it is the person Qin Haotian specified to take away."

"As for the people who entered the camp, because they were dressed in ordinary people's clothes, this soldier did not recognize their identity."

"The soldier was sure, though, that the men were well equipped and well trained. After entering the campsite, he rarely spoke. ”

In addition, the soldier also reported that he vaguely heard Qin Haotian call General Wang by the name. I deduced that this General Wang must be the leader of more than 100 people, and the only person who can be called a general is the imperial army. (To be continued.) )
