439: Selling grain is profiteering
Did the fifth prince ask Yu San to follow?
Cheng Qing will be skeptical.
She suspected that Yu San found out that she was missing, so she ran to ask the fifth prince, and the fifth prince sent Yu San to follow.
This is the most likely scenario.
The worst case is that Yu San didn't ask the opinions of the five princes and ran away...... Yu San has also matured a lot in the past two years, and he shouldn't run away directly.
The best situation is that the five princes took the initiative to send Yu San to follow, the five princes are more likely to buy people's hearts than Cheng Qing thinks, and they have to ensure the safety of the courtiers regardless of their own safety, Cheng Qing is really only seventeen years old, and he must be moved by the five princes.
But no matter what the case is, what Cheng Qing can be sure of is that Yu San is willing to follow!
Because I like her.
Young people's likes can't be hidden at all.
Cheng Qing had a headache.
To solve Yu San's liking for her, it is best not to see Yu San, if you don't see each other for a long time, Yu San may have shifted the target.
This Huainan disaster relief was originally an opportunity, but Yu San appeared in the list of protectors again, all the way south, everyone took the same boat, looked up and did not look down, and the feelings were not weak but deep.
Not to mention, Yu San is now going to accompany her to Huai'an to transport grain.
There are no five princes, no Cui Yan, no Cheng Zhixu, only a master Xu who wants to cheat Cheng Qing's silver, and there is a crisis lurking in the shadows...... Cheng Qing is not afraid of anything else now, she is most afraid of encountering danger on the way to Huai'an, if she and Yu San are in danger together, Yu San will probably be unable to help but come out and confess.
This is a very simple suspension bridge effect, when a person walks across the dangerous suspension bridge, the heartbeat will not help but speed up, at this time a person of the opposite sex will come to the opposite sex, this person will mistakenly think that the opposite sex in front of him is the other half of his life, so as to produce a good feeling.
After the advent of this theory, many romantic encounters lost their romantic color, emotions influenced behavior, and people mistook the rapid heartbeat caused by nervousness for the arrival of love.
- So she and Yu San must not be in danger!
After going through danger together, Yu San, a fool, will definitely fall deeper and deeper.
"Okay, you have followed, I can't drive you away, it's okay to go to Huai'an together, don't mess up the show, I still have to rely on Master Xu to cover up my identity."
Cheng Qing suppressed the irritability in her heart, compared with Yu San liking her, the drought in Huainan was the top priority in front of her.
Yu San also knew why Cheng Qing wanted to pretend to be a stunned young master of a rich family, that Master Xu still wanted to fight ghosts, so he put up with it and waited until Huai'an to clean it up!
"Yes, don't show your stuff, when there are outsiders, you need to call me cousin, you can call me two more times now to get used to it?"
Yu San got an inch, and Cheng Qing smiled: "Cousin, I won't accompany you, I'm going to greet Master Xu." ”
The ship started, and the lively Xuzhou was left behind.
Dinner was solved on the boat, and the Hun family of the boat boss renovated a table of river fresh feasts, the craftsmanship was good, and the river freshness was freshly caught.
There is also a cage of crabs, all of which are the size of an adult's fist, full of crab roe, and then warm a pot of rice wine, and eat the crabs while drinking, so comfortable.
Master Xu and Cheng Qing drank happily, and Yu San accompanied them at the same table.
Master Xu was very happy to see Cheng Qing and Yu San, two cousins, shaking hands and making peace, and at the same time quietly probing Yu San's bottom.
Cheng Qing is so stupid, the family still let her out to sell silk, what if this cousin Yu is particularly young and promising?
That's not easy to fool.
As soon as Master Xu tried it, he almost didn't make a sound.
Cheng Qing still knows a little bit about business, Cousin Yu doesn't even know a little bit of skin, he is a complete layman, Master Xu casually told a few small stories about the business, and Cousin Yu was shocked.
and other topics are biased to eating, drinking and having fun, Cousin Yu is an expert.
Master Xu completely let go of his worries.
This pair of cousins, one looks silly, the other looks quite reliable, but in fact they are also straw bales.
This is really God wants to give him someone a sum of money, he doesn't cheat, Cheng Qing will be deceived by others when he arrives in Yangzhou...... Master Xu was the only one who smiled at the money sent to the door.
After Master Xu tested Yu San, he was even more open when he spoke.
Cheng Qing took the opportunity to ask him about Master Cui.
"Uncle Shi has been out for a long time, and the family is very worried, if I can find Uncle Shi, this trip south will not be in vain."
Then how can you run in vain, and when you are cheated of money, you will accumulate experience.
Master Xu was happy in his heart, in order to coax Cheng Qing to trust him more, he really wanted to help. Cheng Qing said that Master Cui's hands and feet were not very bright, and Master Xu was not impressed, so he called the boat boss to ask, and the boat boss was really impressed.
"He looks kind and kind, brought a few family members, and received grain in Xuzhou last month, whether it is the young master who is looking for Master Cui, and the little one is not sure. If the young master wants to know more clearly, the little one turns the boat around and goes back to Xuzhou Wharf to ask? ”
Master Cui is kind and kind-eyed, and he is also right with his family.
Harvesting grain in Xuzhou last month?
The boat boss said to turn around and go back to Xuzhou to inquire, where is Cheng Qing willing to delay.
The boat boss said that this person is very similar to Master Cui, and Cui Yan can ask more questions at Xuzhou Wharf.
Master Xu looked at her puzzled and said with a smile: "Your uncle is very powerful, he collected grain in Xuzhou last month, Huainan suffered a disaster, the price of grain in Xuzhou rose fivefold, and the grain was taken away by well-informed businessmen to find a way to sell it to Huainan." ”
There was a hint of jealousy in Old Man Xu's tone.
Cheng Qing didn't seem to notice it, and asked Master Xu: "Since collecting grain is so profitable, why doesn't Uncle Xu follow suit?" ”
Master Xu put down his wine glass and snorted heavily:
"Make this kind of wealth, give birth to a son without an asshole, Xu disdains it!"
You are an old liar, you have deceived so many foreign merchants, if your son has an asshole, he will definitely not be of his own species.
When the banquet dispersed, Cheng Qing was helped back to the cabin by Xiaopan to sleep.
Yu San wanted to be driven away by Cheng Qing for a while.
Only Cheng Qing and Xiao Pan were left in the room, and Xiao Pan listened to it on the board.
Master Xu in the next cabin was cursing in a low voice.
Xiao Pan was very angry after hearing this, "Young Master, Master Xu is a villain, he dreamed of going to Huainan to sell grain, saying that now the grain is transported to Huainan, at least five times the profit, Master Xu is afraid to go, Huainan's 'Long Turban Army' specializes in killing dignitaries and wealthy businessmen and gentry, seeing one to kill one, the merchants easily dare not step into the boundary of Huainan!" ”
Master Xu chose the latter between silver and life, Cheng Qing was not interested in whether Master Xu was dumping food, she was now worried about going to Huainan for disaster relief.
The 'Long Turban Army' in Master Xu's mouth is the largest mob gang in Huainan now, I haven't heard of them hanging out the anti-flag before, and now they even have the name of the army, so it's naturally the opposite!
The 'Turban Army' specializes in killing dignitaries and nobles, even businessmen?
Cheng Qing is generally reluctant to divide others by class, and now he wants to scold his mother: a group of mud-legged people revolted, damn not to talk about any strategy, even kill officials, even kill merchants, without merchants, who will transport grain into Huainan? !
Without food and weapons, the rebellious mob army will not last long.
- Moreover, Master Cui is also in danger!
