"Lord Xiao, I can give you an iron ingot of hundreds of thousands of catties...... Don't be busy thanking me first, it's not for nothing, you have to give me the silver according to the market price, it's the market price, and one or two can't be less, otherwise this thing will be a failure! ”

"Give and give, how much silver is at your command, Lord Chen...... I'll give it now! Silver is not yet readily available. Xiao Chen carried it in his arms.

"But you have to give me a batch of grain, which you said was stale grain, and I want it now, right away! I can also convert this into silver for you to settle, but if you are old grain, you can't ...... it according to the market price" Chen Wenqi gave Xiao Chen what he wanted, and he had to get what he wanted.

"It's small, Lord Chen!" Xiao Chen smiled, "You think my pattern is too small, can I still ask you for silver for these old sesame seeds?" You can pay for the journey, and I will immediately send someone 800 miles back urgently, so that they can immediately load the ship and transport it to you to Haining Bay, okay? ”

"Lord Xiao, are you serious about what you say?" Chen Wenqi was overjoyed.

"But it's not much, I still have to leave a little bit of preparation, don't I? But I look at Lord Chen, you seem to be in a hurry......" Xiao Chen groaned again.

"Hurry, hurry!" Chen Wenqi said loudly, "Now hundreds of thousands of hungry people in Haining Bay and Minzhou County are anxiously waiting for food to save their lives, and human lives are at stake, Lord Xiao!" ”

"Okay, I'll ship you 30,000 stones! But let's talk about it, it's all old grain, and those dried meats are like iron rods, and you can't bite them if you don't soak them for three days......"

"How much?" Chen Wenqi stood up suddenly, walked to Xiao Chen's side and bared his teeth at him.

you, Lord Chen, are you going to bite me, what's wrong?

"30,000 stone of grain, anyway, there are miscellaneous everything, dried meat, dried vegetables and dried fish are not counted, I will try to fill it for you when the time comes." Xiao Chen shrank back vigorously, afraid that he would really bite down.

This guy's eyes are red, and he really can't keep it.

Chen Wenqi immediately summoned his officials and asked them to immediately mobilize iron ingots, copper ingots, and lead skins from various smelters...... Send it to Yanyun County immediately, handle it quickly, and do not delay it slightly!

Xiao Chen immediately beckoned a brother, you go back to Changshan Prefecture now, pass on my governor's order, and immediately transport the grain that Lord Chen needs.

It is limited to ten days to Haining Bay, if there is a slight delay, quite a lot of people will be heavily punished, and will not be tolerated!

Both of them are resolute and resolute, without dragging their feet.

But after Chen Wenqi calmed down, he became suspicious again, this kid I rely on is willing to send me so much food so generously?

He kept saying that he couldn't eat those old grains and dried meat...... You can't really eat it, right?

"Lord Chen, those old grains and dried meat or something, I brought a little bit with me this time, of course I didn't eat it, nor did I give it to you to eat, I wanted to show Ma Wuming Shangshu and the people from their Ministry of Industry, and by the way, I asked them how this granary was built? Why can it be kept for so long......" Xiao Chen said again.

Seeing Chen Wenqi's eyes wide, he hurriedly called a brother, quickly go back and bring it to me, please Lord Chen take a look!

After a while, the brother came running back with a bag, but there were several small bags inside.

Respectively packed with old rice, millet, sorghum, black beans, soybeans, dried meat, dried fish, dried vegetables, flour cakes......

Chen Wenqi pinched a few grains of rice and put them in his mouth and chewed them a few times, and a smile appeared on his face, "Lord Xiao, you have done me a great favor." ”

"It's all for the imperial court, but it's not to help you, Lord Chen, our friendship is not so good." Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"Well, even so, I still accept your affection." Chen Wenqi said.

For a moment, he even really liked Xiao Chen, this kid is not a thing, but he is really capable.

Anyway, he can find the legendary Thirteen Cangs of the Great Han?

Have the ability, be smart enough, take the overall situation into account, understand the military, understand the economy, be able to change, and be able to persevere...... It's really rare to have such a well-rounded talent!

No wonder the emperor has never been willing to kill him.

But Xiao Chen also has a big shortcoming, that is, he is unruly and extremely difficult to control.

This one disadvantage alone outweighs all his advantages.

Fortunately, he had an incurable disease, and he only had three or two years to live, otherwise he would have to find a way to kill him no matter what......

Now, you might as well summon him and let him try his best to exert his residual heat before he dies.

"I also admit your affection to Lord Chen, this steel is too important to me, okay, it's over, let's leave." Xiao Chen didn't want to have any friendship with this Chen Wenqi, this person was too yin and couldn't make a thorough relationship.

"Stay for a light meal, right?" It is rare for Chen Wenqi to be so polite to him.

"Forget it, I've heard for a long time that your Lord Chen has a hard life, and I can't get used to eating that clear soup with little water, so I'd better go into the palace and go to the emperor to eat the imperial meal." Xiao Chen raised his hand to leave.

Chen Wenqi sent him all the way out of the door of the household with a rare hand, and watched him get on the horse and leave, and then he went in with a complicated mood behind his back.

When Xiao Chen entered the palace to see Li Wanjiang, he wanted to ask him when he could go back? Now that the things that should be done in Fengyang City have basically been done, it's almost time to leave.

There is another thing, that is, to find a way to dismiss Li Wanjiang's kindness, and not let Shangguan abandon the illness and go back with him, this guy has unknown intentions, he may have ill intentions, and it is not a good thing to have him by his side.

This guy may be a little spy that Li Wanjiang has planted beside him.

If it were an ordinary person, it would be fine, but he was a disciple of the Shangguan family......

As a result, the emperor who wanted to see him didn't see it, saying that he was too tired to sleep well last night and was making up for sleep, so don't bother if there is no major military situation.

Shangguan Qiji, who didn't want to see him, saw it, he also came to see the emperor, and he was closed like Xiao Chen.

"What are you doing here?" When he saw Xiao Chen, he raised his eyebrows.

"I'm here to see the emperor, what am I doing? I was thinking that Brother Shangguan, you are fat and inconvenient to walk, so I want to invite the emperor and not let you go to Yanyun County with me to suffer. Xiao Chen said.

"Huh? Is it true? Shangguan Qiji was slightly stunned, "You kid has such a good heart?" ”

"It's always been there, but it's always been treated as a donkey's liver and lungs!" Xiao Chen was also slightly stunned,? Listening to the dead fat man's tone, it seems that he is not willing to go.

"Didn't you beg the emperor to let me accompany you?" Shangguan abandoned the disease and squinted at Xiao Chen, half-convinced.

"I thought you cared about your little brother, so you wanted to follow me." Xiao Chen was very confused by the dead fat man.

What's going on?

"I care about you, I can't fight with you...... If you can really leave me behind, I won't bother with you about bullying my sister Yunxiu, and it's not impossible for you to live for an extra year and a half. Shangguan abandoned the disease.

"It's a deal!" Xiao Chen high-fived him as an oath.

"It's hard to chase a horse!" Shangguan abandoned the disease and said.
