Chapter 70: A Secret War Between Rogues

"If you feel that you are really at a loss, then you can wait for three more days, and when the price of grain rises, remember, three days, according to the price of the day's grain." Cao Wenzhao raised three fingers and shook it, his expression was very serious.

Zhao Wuye, Zheng Sanye and the others suddenly jumped in their hearts, they didn't know why, they always felt that Cao Wenzhao's serious expression was pretended, revealing a strong smell of conspiracy, which made him feel a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Zhao Wuye glanced at Zheng Sanye and the others, and several people came to the side and muttered a few words in a low voice, and then said very shamefully, there is no need to wait, tonight, hand over the grain with one hand, and the people and goods with the other.

"Yo, what if the price of grain rises sharply in three days, won't the princes lose money? No, no, let's wait......" Cao Wenzhao shook his hands wildly, with a warm and sincere attitude for the sake of his brother.

"Thank you General Cao for your care, I'm worried about the lack of food for the officers and soldiers, let's do it tonight, with food, the army's heart will be stable, hehe, hehe......"

Zhao Wuye and others insisted that they must trade tonight and end this matter, the more Cao Wenzhao insisted on thinking about them, making them feel frightened, afraid that this old rascal would make some terrible demon moths, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, the sooner the matter was closed, the better, so as not to worry about worrying about it.

"Yo, what if the price of grain rises again, won't the princes lose? My old Cao has always been righteous, how can he harm his friends, right? No, no, no, it's really not good......" Cao Wenzhao, who has always valued love and righteousness, insisted on not allowing it.

The two sides have seen each other, the attitude is resolute, there is a warm and strange scene in the handsome tent for the sake of each other, in the end, Cao Zongbing can not resist the sincerity and incomparable enthusiasm of Zhao Wuye, Zheng Sanye and others, and reluctantly agreed to tonight's deal.

After sending Zhao Wuye and the others away, Qin Wentao came out of the back tent and gave Cao Wenzhao a thumbs up, the general is powerful, there is a place for you in the top ten pit kings.

"Hahaha......" Cao Wenzhao laughed, neither denied nor admitted, don't look at his five big and three rough, sometimes he pits people, and he happily counts the money when he is sold.

"Did the general notice Zhao Wuye's last sentence?" Qin Wentao asked with a smile.

"Hmm...... It seems that the names of the two people have been mentioned...... "Cao Wenzhao scratched his head, seriously recalled the words that Zhao Wuye said when he was leaving, and after Qin Wentao reminded him, he seemed to feel an unusual taste.

Qin Wentao smiled slightly, shook his head and analyzed it, Zhao Wuye and the others insisted on trading at night, mainly because they were worried that others would be dissatisfied with their private compromise and destroy the alliance agreement, which shows that this alliance of interests is not monolithic, as for the names of the two people mentioned by Zhao Wuye intentionally or unintentionally, they are the two richest and most powerful bigwigs in Xi'an Mansion, and if they stomp their feet, the entire territory of Xi'an will have to be shaken, they are the leading brothers who are resolute and uncompromising.

"This Zhao Wu is very insidious." Cao Wenzhao scratched his head, this guy sold the two leading brothers silently, so insidious, he hates this kind of person the most.

Qin Wentao laughed, General, there are two sides to everything, Zhao Wu is insidious, but from another angle, it can be understood as showing favor to us, although there is a majority of the mentality of using the official army to retaliate against the two leading brothers, but everyone can use each other, not only to split the interests of the gentry and the powerful, to plant eyeliner within them, and to have one more ally, there are many benefits, why not?

Cao Wenzhao smiled bitterly and shook his head, this kind of thing is too brain-consuming, my brother can't play, it's better for you to do it, it's better to notify your subordinates first, and get ready for the night's transaction.

After Zheng Sanye, Zhao Wuye and others left the barracks, they did not go home immediately to prepare, but were pulled to the house by the enthusiastic Zhao Wuye and put a table of wine to suppress the shock.

"Are you puzzled?" After three rounds of drinking, Zhao Wuye slowly glanced at the people present and asked with a smile.

"No ......" Zheng Sanye and the others hurriedly shook their heads and denied it, in terms of fame, wealth, and status, Zhao Wuye is much stronger than them, of course they listen to Zhao Wuye, but a big "? No.

"In this way, Zhugong first carefully think about the Red Gang's grain sales in the past few days." Zhao Wuye said with a smile, looking like the old god was there.

Zheng Sanye and the others were stunned, they all frowned, with a thoughtful expression.

In the eyes of all the gentry and heroes in Xi'an, the Red Gang is an outlier, they don't make a lot of money, they want to sell grain at a low price, smash their jobs, and don't know how to cut off people's money, is it tantamount to killing their parents?

Hong Ye is indeed a great man who can call the wind and rain in Beijing, but your devil's claws are stretched so long, and you still can't let people live? Do you know the rules of the dragon not to suppress the snake?

Anyway, the Red Gang was regarded by the gentry and powerful as an enemy who killed his father and wife, and they wanted to chop him up and feed him to the dogs to relieve their hatred.

Which of these gentry is not a black-bellied fox, a thousand-year-old fox who has cultivated well, an old rascal who is not soaked in oil and salt, and comes up with so many tricks that you will have nightmares at night.

They stirred up the displaced people in and out of the city to buy grain in a frenzy, and also let the peasant households in the village mix in with the displaced people to carry out all kinds of stirring, and the mighty army of grain buyers surrounded the grain stores opened by the Red Gang, and almost caused a major incident of popular revolt.

There are indeed more than a dozen grain shops in the city, but only the Red Gang's grain shops are so low that the prices are maddening, while the other grain stores are all opened by the gentlemen and gentlemen, and the prices are high to the sky, forming a contrast between heaven and earth, even if they don't move, the people will rush to buy food.

This trick is indeed vicious and vicious, their trenches are united, and their financial resources are indeed amazing, and they can casually collapse the grain store of the Red Gang and cut off the claws of the Red Master to Shaanxi Province.

The plan is very beautiful, but the reality is so skinny that people vomit blood, the people of the Red Gang seem to have thought that someone would use these messy tricks to pit people, and they have already had countermeasures, and there has always been a team of officers and soldiers in the shop who are responsible for maintaining order in case of accidents, so although the people who came in were a large area of black pressure, but under the pressure of the powerful bullets of the officers and soldiers, they all lined up honestly, no one dared to cut in line, and a few ill-intentioned guys hid in the crowd to stir up the wind and ignite the fire, and they were pulled out and put in prison.

If there was an absolute accident some time ago, or even turned into a civil uprising, the people were about to starve to death, and they were desperate, they only needed a leading brother to ascend and shout, and they would all respond, kill those officers and soldiers, and then grab food.

But now the situation is a little different, although there are many displaced people, but they have been properly settled, although every meal is to drink gruel and wild vegetables, but at least not starving to death, if you want to drink more bowls of gruel, you have to go to work to earn wages or wages, Sun Chengzong did spend a lot of energy on the resettlement of the displaced people, however, that is based on the premise of having food, and the Red Gang and the imperial court continue to transport food is the best guarantee, but also let the people feel at ease, with hope, the stupid pen will take the risk of losing his head to do the stupid thing of killing officials and rebelling.
