Three days later.

Outside Jeju City.

Yan Chasan looked at the endless convoy and asked:

"Is the quantity of supplies compatible? Cao Bin didn't embarrass us in this regard, right? ”

The gopher raised the knife and said:

"Don't worry, my lord, Cao Bin didn't do anything, and all the material guards were distributed according to 30%."

"Excluding the money and grain that has been shipped, there are 60,000 stone of grain, and 400,000 yuan of money has been paid here."

"Cao Bin has already sent his subordinates to make it clear that my eldest brother and fourth brother took away the money because of the purchase of grain, and all of it belongs to us."

Yan Chasan's face was slightly relaxed, and he said:

"That's it......"

After speaking, he instructed Bai Yutang again:

"Brother Bai, don't go to Qizhou with us."

"Although I have separated from Cao Bin, he also needs you to keep an eye on them here and collect evidence of their greed for ink in the future!"

Bai Yutang hesitated: "My lord, your safety ......"

Yan Chasan waved his hand and said:

"Master Bao has already sent me a reply, and he will send Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and the officials of Kaifeng Mansion to help me."

"Besides, with Han Xu and two guards by my side, there will be no danger."

When Bai Yutang heard this, he had to nod and take the order.

"Let's go!"

Looking at the reckless and lonely land, Yan Chasan waved his hand and shouted, urging the horse forward.

At this time, he has a kind of sea wide with fish jumping, and the sky is high and the birds are flying.

Now the official documents of the imperial court have been served.

He no longer needs to be restrained by Cao Bin, and he has the right to investigate and temporarily detain the magistrates of the three states.

It can be said that the disaster relief in Sanzhou is in his hands.

At this time, in the middle of the Qincha line, he was singing and dancing lightly, and the music was fluttering.

Cao Bin was drinking while checking the system points, and he was in a happy mood.

He didn't expect that when he had the task of the imperial court, he could get double the points for indulging in pleasures.

In the past, he went to the Qinglou Theater and worked hard, and he could brush up to 100 points.

Now as long as he doesn't do business, he can get 200 points a day for peace of mind.

In eight days, he has added 1,600 points.

Counting the previous 22,600 points, you need another 7,800 points to be able to purchase "top marksmanship".

At this time, Xia Laodao walked into the hall, silently found a chair to sit down, and stared at the song and dance with squinting eyes.

When Cao Bin saw him come back, he asked casually, "Sent Yan Chasan away?" ”

Xia Laodao poured a sip of herbal tea and said: "Send it away, uncle, rest assured, the money and food are all given according to your instructions, and there is nothing wrong at all." ”

Cao Bin asked again: "I asked you to buy grain from a local grain merchant, how much does you earn now?" ”

Xia Laodao thought for a moment and said, "There are already 321,500 stones. ”

As he spoke, he hesitated: "It's just that the quality of those grains is uneven, and some of the old grains have become moldy......."

Cao Bin waved his hand and said:

"You buy normally, you should lower the price, and refuse to refuse."

"Especially the grain that is seriously moldy cannot be recovered."

"Those things are poisonous, and if someone dies, you and I can't afford to take this responsibility."

After finishing speaking, Cao Bin could clearly feel that Xia Laodao's expression relaxed a little.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, uncle, that's what I did, I'm just afraid that it will be difficult for you to do, didn't people give benefits......"

As he was talking, there was a report from a small servant: "Master Chang came to visit."

Cao Bin nodded and said, "Please let him in." ”

After a while, Chang Feng walked in with Jeju Zhiju.

The music and dancing in the hall suddenly stopped, and all the maids hurriedly bowed.

Chang Feng glanced at the woman in the lead, and said with a smile on his face:

"Uncle Cao is so free!"

Cao Bin laughed:

"I'm just afraid that Master Chang will dislike me and get in the way, so I won't trouble you."

Chang Feng smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand and said, "The little marquis is modest. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand at the maids in the hall and sent them down, before he tilted his head and nodded to Jeju, picked up a cup of tea and tasted it unhurriedly.

Seeing this, Jeju Fat Zhizhou hurriedly took out two silver tickets from his sleeve, put them on the coffee table in front of Cao Bin, and said with a smile:

"This is a little bit of the heart of the Shandong gentry, and they have long wanted to personally thank Uncle Cao for taking care of him."

"It's just that I didn't have the opportunity to meet my uncle, so I entrusted it to the lower officials, please don't dislike the shabby."

Cao Bin knew that this was the rebate for the 300,000 stone grain business.

He glanced at the silver ticket, laughed twice, stretched out two fingers and picked up one and said with a smile:

"Twenty thousand taels? Looks like they're making a lot of money. ”

20,000 silver may be an astronomical amount for other officials, but for Cao Bin, it is a little unfavorable.

His two businesses in the capital can earn more than 20,000 taels of silver every month.

For him, this money is just a month's legitimate income.

Moreover, he asked Xia Laodao to buy grain at three times the price in the name of the imperial court, and those people earned at least 200,000 taels of silver.

Chang Feng saw Cao Bin's attitude, his face was slightly unswerving, and he smiled: "Could it be that Uncle Cao is too little?" ”

Cao Bin groaned for a moment, shook his head and said reluctantly:

"It's okay, it's enough to take a while."

When Fat Zhizhou heard this, he hurriedly explained:

"Don't dislike it, uncle, it's just the beginning, our local gentry don't have much food."

"Now that they have gone to other provinces to buy grain, there will definitely be a steady stream of business to do at that time."

"As long as the business continues, will there be less money?"

Cao Bin pinched his fingers and pretended to calculate, and suddenly slapped his thigh and smiled:

"You're right, a business of 300,000 guan can earn 20,000 taels, and 3 million guan can make 200,000 yuan...... That's enough for me to spend a few years. ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly said:

"You tell the grain merchants, tell them to buy the grain quickly."

"If the money is not enough, I will ask the court again, and the price will be absolutely guaranteed."

"When I came, the Taishi had already told me that the imperial court attached great importance to Shandong disaster relief, and there was still a lot of money in the treasury......."

After speaking, he said uneasily:

"Wang Zhizhou, you mobilize the large and small grain merchants in Shandong, as long as they can buy grain, I will raise the price of grain by another two percent."

When Fat Zhizhou heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked:

"Is this true?"

Chang Feng hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Uncle, don't, since then, I'm afraid the imperial court will send someone to investigate strictly." ”

Cao Bin said with a big grin:

"Don't worry, my errand was personally assigned by Taishi and Taifu Cai."

"With the two of them, I don't believe anyone dares to come to me for trouble!"

When Chang Feng heard this, he was first surprised, and then he couldn't help laughing.

He really didn't expect that Cao Bin would even get Cai Jing's support.

Pang Ji and Cai Jing are the two giants who control the court, and they have joined forces, but nothing has ever happened.

can only say that this Cao Bin's backstage is too hard, so hard that no one dares to mess with it.

Thinking of this, he suddenly relaxed, and as long as Cao Bin was fooled, he no longer needed to worry about the imperial court coming to investigate.

After Chang Feng and Fat Zhizhou left, Cao Bin handed the two silver tickets to Xia Laodao and carefully advised:

"Seal up the silver and keep it so that it may not be seen, that it may be examined in the future."

Xia Laodao was stunned for a moment and said, "Uncle doesn't plan to cooperate with them?" ”

Cao Bin glanced at him and said:

"My business of two or three hundred thousand yuan a year, for such a small amount of money, is it worth going along with them?"

"What's more, Bao Heizi has been staring at me for a long time, and he found out, and he didn't kill me? ”

Xia Laodao immediately smiled when he heard this, but he was a little puzzled: "Why did the uncle ......?"

Cao Bin waved his hand and said:

"Just to confuse them, didn't you notice?"

"This Shandong is full of people who are often sealed, if not, I will not be able to relieve the disaster if I am exhausted."

"If I smash it and starve to death, I'll have to be ........"

As he spoke, he scolded: "This kind of errand is the most difficult to do, if it weren't for the way, I wouldn't have come......."

Xia Laodao suddenly realized, and then said a little puzzled:

"But why did Uncle promise them to collect grain at a high price?"

"If the court seriously investigates it, this is also a big crime, and it will not be easy for the uncle to defend it at that time."

Cao Bin laughed and said:

"This is the key to my breakthrough, this hole, I have been digging for a long time."

"It's up to them to see if they'll see it."
