"In my opinion, I should put Zuo Menggeng to the west and sit and watch King Shen sit big, so it is beneficial to me!" Mi Yan was convincing in his words, and analyzed the various pros and cons of King Shen sitting on the Three Guards one by one, including Li Da, who also agreed with Mi Yan's opinion.

Li Xin nodded yes, but his expression did not seem to be persuaded by Mi Yan. Sure enough, he shook his head categorically and said, "Millions of grains and rice are all people's fat and people's ointment, how can it be cheaper than careerists like King Shen?" The order will go down, set up a card on the Yangtze River, and intercept the fleet......" Li Xin hesitated for a moment, and then added: "The goods are left, and all the people from other provinces on the ship will take them!" ”

Mi Yan was just stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, and the secret path was still ruthless enough and desperate. I received other people's silver, and I also deducted other people's rice, and doubled it in my hand as soon as I went in and out.

Li Da on the side was suspicious, "The Three Guards sell rice first, and grab rice last, I'm afraid that spreading it will be bad for the reputation of the town marquis!" ”

At this moment, Mi Yan has been completely persuaded by Li Xin, King Shen has ambitions, and if he can't get this batch of rice, sooner or later he will have to show his wolf ambitions, so it is better to hold all the wealth in his hands now.

"Brother Li probably doesn't know much about my Ming Dynasty's national conditions, grain is the foundation of the country, not everyone can buy and sell in large quantities, and this buyer may not be able to be everyone. For example, Zuo Liangyu and Shen Wang, they can't do this buyer anyway. ”

Mi Yan touched his nose, he had broken his face in the Manchu prison, leaving a shallow, faintly visible slender scar on his nose.

"Therefore, it is easy to intercept millions of stone rice, but the difficulty lies in controlling Zuo Mengeng and the fake high roller in his hands, with these two people in his hands, whether it is King Shen or Zuo Liangyu, no one dares to act rashly to expose this matter, and can only admit that he is unlucky and has suffered a dumb loss."

In the waterway of the Yangtze River, Ruan Dacheng's boat has been moored for two nights and three days, and he counted the days and estimated that Zuo Menggeng's rice boat should pass by here today. However, until this time, the flotilla that should have appeared had not appeared. Seeing the sun set, just when he was about to lose confidence and hope, he saw countless black spots densely appearing at the junction of water and sky.

The children of the family pointed to the east and shouted excitedly: "Boat, ship, ship......"

Ruan Dacheng raised his eyes and saw that it was indeed a large number of ships, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Zuo Menggeng left Nanzhili safely, which can be regarded as fulfilling one of his wishes. And Lord Shen will inevitably admit his feelings, in case there is a turning point in the future, this can be regarded as an introduction buried in advance. Ruan Dacheng has been very disappointed with the current situation, which can be seen from the "Public Disclosure of Staying in the Capital to Prevent Chaos" by the Jiangnan scholars this time, as long as he reigns for a day, I am afraid that he will never come out.

From this point of view, the promise of Zhou Yanru to help him re-enter the official career may be an empty dream that can never be realized. After sobering up, Ruan Dacheng immediately gave up this unrealistic fantasy, and instead proposed to Zhou Yanru to seek an official for his best friend Ma Shiying. Guan Shuo's handwritten letter had been sent to Beijing two days ago, and he was just waiting to see Li Xin become a lost dog and return to his hometown Tongcheng to hibernate.

"Strange, why are there so many boats?"

Jia Ding muttered strangely, Ruan Dacheng followed Jia Ding's guidance and looked, but his heart couldn't help but tighten. It was clearly a clipper fighting in the middle of the river, whose deployment was this? He subconsciously asked Rang Jiading with his name post, but in an instant, he suddenly realized that he had become a street rat in Nanjing, and his Ruan Dacheng's name post was not much stronger than straw paper.

"Take a small boat and go to find out who those penetrations are!" At the end, he added: "Be careful not to get too close!" ”

The family who received the order was ordered to drive a small boat to investigate, Ruan Dacheng looked at the rice boats that turned to the shore one after another, and his heart was sinking. A sense of foreboding poured out little by little as my heart sank.

Sure enough, about a quarter of an hour later, the family returned to the side of the big ship with the boat, and after boarding the big boat, he didn't even breathe and said: "Yes, it's the Three Guards from the north, they said that they wanted to stop the ship for inspection, they were very polite, and the villain also talked to the leading general for a few miles, no one did anything, no one was injured, there should be no major incident, the master can rest assured......"

Ruan Dacheng kicked the spittoon next to him to the ground and scolded: "Millions of stones of rice have been robbed by that guy, this is also called no big deal, what is a big deal?" It really makes you stupid angry, say a few good words to you, pour some mist soup, and you will be confused, and you don't know the east, west, north and south? ”

The old man who has been pleasant-looking for the past few days suddenly had a seizure, which scared several children into silence, and the image of the extremely majestic old man quickly occupied their weak hearts.

What good can a seizure be? Ruan Dacheng Wu gradually calmed down, he didn't have the strength to compete with Li Xin now, but others did, thinking that the angel had already passed through Jining with the holy decree, and he could reach Nanjing in three or five days. At that time, see how Li Xin should respond, is it disrespectful to resist the will? That's a joke! Not to mention that Nanjing has the Houjun Governor's Mansion led by Wei Guogong, and Jiangbei also has the soldiers and horses of the three towns controlled by Zhang Fangyan, the governor of Zhejiang, under heavy attacks, can he still turn the sky upside down?

Thinking of this, Ruan Dacheng's mood improved a lot, so he said: "Go buy some wine and meat, the birds are about to fade out of your mouth these days!" ”

The children of the family looked at each other, and their own lord was moody, and he was furious for a while, and he even wanted to eat meat for a long time like no one else, didn't it really stimulate something wrong? Ruan Dacheng didn't know it yet, and the eyes of the family members had changed when they looked at him.

The camp in Longtan was full of joy, snatching millions of stone of grain out of thin air, and wasting time and manpower just to transport all the grain. Someone built a grain storage on the spot along the Yangtze River, but Li Xin always felt that it was unreliable, in case of a big flood, wouldn't it be ruined? After thinking about it, I had to build a granary in Longtan. Since the granary was built in Longtan, this matter is inseparable from the Longtan County Order from Chen Wenshan.

Chen Wenzhi had already learned that Li Xin had confiscated Zuo Mengeng's grain, and these grains were exchanged for rice coupons sold by him, and he really blamed himself for this for a while. Later, the Marquis of Zhenyu sent a letter to warn him not to lose money in the future, as long as he did his best, he would naturally benefit from it. In this way, a restless heart can be put down.

Tonight, when the Marquis of Zhenyu passed Chen Wenshan to the Longtan camp to discuss matters, he almost fainted with excitement. There is no other reason, just got a million stone of grain, maybe it has to be allocated to the superintendent yamen supervised by him, so that he has a huge amount of wealth, but he is really rich and rivals the country, but I am afraid that the Nanjing household department does not have as much money in his hands!

Chen Wenshan was so anxious that he didn't even sit in a sedan chair, and rode directly to the Longtan military camp. After arriving at the barracks, he realized that something was wrong, and the generals in the camp seemed to have indignation on their faces, all of them were happy to get a million grains. He asked a familiar general to inquire before he suddenly realized that it was the grain governor directly under the household department of Nanjing who came to ask for rice.

After all, the operation of robbing rice on the Yangtze River lasted for a whole day with great fanfare on the Yangtze River, and the city of Nanjing naturally had already been trusted, and it was not surprising that they wanted a piece of the pie. Chen Wenzhi also followed the generals and scolded the governor for a few words, but he didn't dare to really let people hear it, this kind of thing should let the marquis of Zhenyu play with the big people in Nanjing, and his small role can only watch the excitement.

The governor of the grain road only sent a frugal person to beg for rice, full of momentum and commanding appearance, how could Li Xin give him a good face, and if he didn't say a word, he would make Niu Jinsong coax this person out of the camp. looked at Chen Wenshan's embarrassment, and secretly said that the domineering spirit of the Hou Hou was really not learned by ordinary people. Can the governor be lightly offended? These old men are in charge of the distribution of grain in a province, which general of the garrison dares to offend them? When the time comes, people will be able to clean up the empty salaries of the generals with their fingers.

Early the next morning, the official document of the governor Sun Ji also arrived at the Longtan camp, and what he did was the same as last night's grain supervision. Li Xin didn't say a word, and directly allocated 300,000 stone rice to deliver it to the governor's yamen.

Chen Wenzhi waited in the barracks all night and another morning, and it was not until noon that he was free to see Li Xin at lunchtime. It was only at this time that Li Xin slapped his head and forgot about this person after being busy all night. So he sat down with him, and ordered his soldiers to bring dishes and chopsticks and eat with them.

Although the camp is full of simple food, Chen Wenshan eats with relish, not only does the marquis of Zhenyu have no shelves, but he is also a person who does practical things, such characters are afraid that they can't find a handful of numbers even if they look at Daming!

The two of them were eating and talking, and Chen Wenzhi became bold for a while, so he bluntly said how could Li Xin be willing to allocate 300,000 stone of grain to the household department in Nanjing? That's not a decimal number!

Li Xin smiled after hearing this, "It's not delicious to eat alone!" You scholars have a good saying, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with all. If I don't pull out a dime, how can the red-eyed officials in Nanjing let me stop? It's better to give up the meat and feed them, so that we can free up our hands to do serious things! Li Xin has been constrained by many parties since he came to Nanjing, and he feels that he can't afford to waste time, so he uses Sun Jiao's hands to satisfy the appetite of these people.

However, before the meal was finished, Mi Yan hurried over, glanced at Chen Wenshan, who was sitting beside him, and stopped talking. Chen Wenshan is such a shrewd person, he hurriedly got up and bowed, and then left the table under the pretext of leaving the two people to talk secretly.

"Someone asks to see the Marquis of Zhenyu, I don't know if I see it?"

"Whose people?"

Li Xin saw Mi Yan's mysterious appearance, so he guessed that this person's plan was not simple!

Mi Yan didn't answer, but stretched out his finger and dipped it in a large pottery bowl filled with water, and wrote a word on the table!

Li Xin was stunned by Mi Yan's mysterious curiosity, and when he looked at the words he wrote on the table, he gasped!

"Is that him?"
