Chapter 158: Forced Buying and Forced Selling

Moral kidnapping, I didn't expect to encounter moral kidnapping in ancient times.

Chen Zhang opened his mouth, wanted to speak, and swallowed back

The most terrifying thing about moral kidnapping is that he stands on the moral high ground, and you can't refute it yet

Of course, you can ignore it or ignore it, but if the other party not only occupies the moral high ground, but also holds power, and also holds knives and swords. It seems that you really don't have a second choice other than acceptance.

"If you don't just explode and kill this literati, so many people here may really be able to solve me."

Chen Zhang's eyes rolled slightly, and he looked around, measuring whether Guo Zihua and the soldiers behind him who were obviously slowly pulling out their knives and threatening could solve themselves.

But Chen Zhang's performance fell in the eyes of the literati and Guo Zihua, that is, he was a little weak-hearted, even timid"

They're used to situations like this for a long time.

"We"

Chen Zhang hadn't spoken yet. Qian Ruxue said directly on the side.

"The country is in trouble and responsible, our Liu family is willing to scatter all the family wealth to protect the family and defend the country, and we are willing to sell this batch of materials."

The literati's angry expression instantly melted like water, and he laughed

"Okay, good, your Liu family is really loyal and patriotic, unlike some businessmen, who ask for money and don't want to die, and are still in prison, even if they want to be loyal to the country now, it depends on whether they have such qualifications and whether they have such skills?"

"So don't think that you are suffering, in fact, this is the prefect who knows that now the war is in chaos, and it is very dangerous for you to go to the capital with these goods, all for your good, all for your safety"

Looking at the triumphant literati, the corners of Chen Zhang's mouth twitched. Seeing Qian Ruxue carefully tugging at the corner of his clothes, he seemed to have something to say, and held back all his words.

Chen Zhang knows very well that although he is a traverser, when it comes to doing business, except for some cases that he has heard in reality, he really doesn't really do business

Compared with himself, he believes in Qian Ruxue's business acumen and means. very

Soon, all the supplies were moved down by the officials.

Even some of the food they had brought with them was emptied.

Chen Zhang's objection, things can be given to you, but you have to keep some food.

But the literati's voice changed

"In Antarctic Province, food is sold normally, if you want to eat rice, you can go to the rice shop and buy it"

Looking at the triumphant appearance of this literati, Chen Zhang took a breath of cold air

Sure enough, it was all killed

Not only did the literati take everything away and sell all the supplies at low prices, but they also emptied all the food

In other words, if you want to eat and buy food in this Antarctic Mansion, it seems that the money from selling goods will be returned soon. It's too dark. ”

By the time Chen Zhang and Qian Ruxue walked out of this courtyard, many of the supplies behind them had already been emptied.

Zhao Dachun and the others gritted their teeth, but they had been guarding Chen Zhang's orders and the rest of the people disguised themselves as servants and stayed aside obediently

Guo Zihua talked eloquently, walked out with a smile on his face, his eyes stayed on Qian Ruxue's body for a moment, and said with a smile.

"You can have a good rest in Antarctic Mansion, our Antarctic Mansion is quite prosperous"

said and looked at Qian Ruxue

"Madame, if you can come to Guo's house to find me if you have anything, I will definitely solve your problems for you,"

After speaking, he raised his head and glanced at Chen Zhang, he was not ashamed at all about digging into the corner of other people's wives in front of other people's husbands, and he felt quite embarrassed, and turned to leave.

Chen Zhang let out a long breath and said

"If I could, I would like to slap him to death right now."

Qian Ruxue was stunned when she heard this, and then smiled slightly, and a trace of sweetness appeared in her heart.

"That's not good, with our strength to really fight, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape here"

"Okay, since things are already like this, let's find a place to rest first, I estimate that the money we sell these materials may not be able to spend a few days in Antarctic Mansion, the prefect of Antarctic Mansion is too dark, and the appearance is too ugly."

Qian Ruxue nodded slightly, instantly understood, and smiled, "Yes, it's true that it's too ugly, but now there is no way to deal with him in this situation."

"Then why are you stopping me from continuing to quarrel with him, you must know that this time it was really a loss."

Money is like snow on the road

"Because I found out that this was an opportunity"

"Opportunity, what do you mean"

Qian Ruxue stretched out her hand, gently brushed her hair and smiled

"What we lost is the first car, although there are a lot of supplies, but we still have 4 wagon caravans behind us, now we should send someone to inform them immediately, let them stay, these things can be sold privately"

"Do you think it's possible to sell it privately? Now the prefect of the Antarctic Mansion controls this business, and even the soldiers guarding the door have been bought, if you want to sell it privately, then there are people who can. ”

Qian Ruxue shook her head slightly

"If there is a sale, there will be a purchase, the prefect of the Antarctic Mansion is too ugly to eat, I don't believe that with his greedy character, the money earned will be evenly distributed to the generals, I'm afraid it won't."

"The other generals will also be tempted, so we can find other generals, and now we only need to explore the city a little, and we should be able to find out the situation in Antarctic Mansion, and then we can use our supplies outside to exchange with the people inside."

I see

Chen Zhang's eyes contracted suddenly, and he immediately understood

It's simple."

If the prefect forcibly bought a large number of merchants' goods in the name of the official and then sold them, would he give the money to the other generals?

I'm afraid it's unlikely

Even if it will be divided, it will only be divided a little, and there will definitely be people who will be dissatisfied.

It's impossible to satisfy everybody with something like this, and there will definitely be other people's eyes.

And what I'm looking for are those who are red-eyed.

If it's a large transaction, you may be afraid, but if it's just a small transaction, or even an exchange for some supplies, I believe it's no problem at all.

The prefect of the Antarctic Province can cover the sky in the Antarctic Mansion with one hand, but no matter how tightly it is done, there will be fine sand flowing down between the fingers.

Just as there is darkness in the brightest places, there is also light in the darkest depths.

When arriving at a new place, where is the best place to find out if you want to get information and information as quickly as possible?

Naturally, it is a restaurant, a tea room and a tavern, don't underestimate these restaurants, the tavern is beautiful, they seem to have a very low status, and they don't get much money, but they are well-informed, basically what happens in the entire Antarctic Mansion, as long as you ask them, you can answer them.

It is the best and most convenient place to find out the news.

Chen Zhang took Qian Ruxue and Zhao Dachun and walked straight to the most luxurious restaurant.

The rest of the 40-odd people have already found the inn and settled them down.

Of course, the price of the inn is quite high. It also means that if you don't stay, you can go somewhere else.

Obviously, there is an upward and downward effect in the entire Antarctic Mansion, and the prefect has a lot of money, so he has to drink some soup for the people below.

The largest restaurant in Antarctic Province is called Osmanthus Building, which is elegantly decorated and gorgeous, and even uses a color close to yellow.

In the Dachang Empire, yellow is regarded as gold, gold is exclusive to the royal family, ordinary people can not use it, and this osmanthus building can be used close to yellow, and there is nothing to do, it can be seen that its background is quite strong.

When you enter it, you have a feeling that you are not rich or expensive. "Two distinguished guests, welcome, welcome"

As soon as he stepped into the osmanthus building, a guy hurriedly ran over.

The clothes this guy wore were also made of silk, of course, not all silk, but linen clothes inside, and a waistcoat, which was silk, which looked quite good.

Obviously, the owner of this osmanthus building also knows how to serve and brand, and it makes people feel good at a glance, and even the guys can wear silk vests, which shows that this place is either rich or expensive.

also revealed a piece of news, that is, if you have money, you will come in, and if you don't have money, you should leave quickly, so as not to be embarrassed when you get it.

Guys in this line of work, if nothing else, that is, the eyesight must be sharp.

After all, you don't know whether it's a poor ghost or a real rich second generation, a dignitary.

There is a way that people rely on their clothes and horses on their saddles, and they respect their clothes before they respect others.

Chen Zhang was wearing the shopkeeper's clothes, but it was decent, which made the guy can't help but look down on him, but at a glance, Qian Ruxue on the side was instantly shocked by her appearance, wearing silk and silk, satin grace and elegance, everyone's beautiful breath came to his face, such a woman is not something ordinary people can have.

At this moment, he was staying by Chen Zhang's side, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his jade-like skin flashing with crystal clear light, and his snow-white neck made everyone swallow their saliva.

Big fish.

It's definitely a big fish.

The man's eyes lit up and he hurriedly ran over, lowered his eyebrows, and behaved very respectfully.

"Several guest officers welcome to the Osmanthus Building, and there is a seat upstairs."

Chen Zhang didn't speak, Qian Ruxue knew more about these things than him.

saw Qian Ruxue's beautiful jaw nodded slightly

"Lead the way"

"Private, three."

The guy shouted and trotted all the way, leading Chen Zhang and the others to the elegant seat on the third floor.

Many of the people in the hall who were eating also chatted when they saw this scene.

It's normal for them to go to a private room, and who can't afford to go?

Their main eyes fell on Qian Ruxue.

"Which woman is this? It's so beautiful, it's even more beautiful than the top brand of Chunhualou"

"Okay, don't insult this woman with the top card of Chunhualou, okay? It's everyone's show."

"It's really a lump of flowers stuck in cow dung." "Yes, it's really a flower stuck in cow dung, and I want to ask which lady is so beautiful."

Disaster in disguise.

There is a saying that it is a red face and a curse, saying that beautiful girls are easy to provoke right and wrong.

But this is not so accurate, it should be said that it is not that girls are easy to provoke, but that beautiful girls are easy to attract the prying eyes of others!

There is a way that is not afraid of thieves stealing, but also a person with strength and power who is worried about it, which will bring disaster to ordinary people.

To paraphrase a common saying, the husband is innocent and guilty, no matter what era it is, the powerless and powerless are the hardest after all.

They may be lucky enough to have a treasure of their own, but if this treasure is targeted by powerful people, it will be doomed.

The elegant seat on the 3rd floor of the Osmanthus Building gives people a very elegant feeling, and the breath is blowing in the face, which makes people look sideways.

As soon as I sat down, a young maid brought tea and some melons and fruits.

Chen Zhang stretched a long waist, although he is a traverser, but it is undeniable that the service here is still quite good, which is enough to show that about the service, the ancients are actually no worse than modern people, and they all know that rich people make money.

After waiting for the good things, the guy lowered his eyebrows and waited respectfully.

Chen Zhang casually threw out some silver and threw it into his hand.

This guy's eyes lit up, and he immediately showed a look of surprise, he didn't expect that there would be a reward just now, and it was really a high roller.

"Thank you, thank you, sir."

This guy lowered his eyebrows and made up his mind that he must serve this distinguished guest well, maybe the reward money alone is enough for him to pay more than a month. "Man, we are new to the Antarctic Mansion, and we don't know much about this Antarctic Mansion, why don't you just introduce us to the situation of the Antarctic Mansion, and save us from knowing nothing, in case we offend someone who shouldn't be offended, then it will be troublesome."

"Okay"

When the guy heard this, he hurriedly spoke.

Recently, there are a lot of people who have come to Antarctic Mansion, and there are many dignitaries and dignitaries, and there are even more people who come to inquire about things.

In general, the Antarctic Mansion is now managed by the prefect Zhao Hengshun, and in addition, there are generals under the Antarctic Mansion who lead the military camp.

The number of people in the barracks was about 10,000.

In addition, there are also city defense troops and arrest battalions, which can be said to be quite strong

Chen Zhang listened quietly, and when he finished speaking, he nodded with satisfaction, and with a bang, he threw out another piece of broken silver.

The guy immediately took it, with a look of surprise in his eyes, and all of a sudden, the silver he earned was enough for a month's monthly money, and the corners of his mouth were almost full of smiles.

"It seems that the Antarctic Mansion is quite stable, but if I remember correctly, the Antarctic Mansion will go to the capital after that, the capital is now besieged by the Rogues, the Antarctic Mansion is not very safe, is it impregnable, we are doing business, if there are Rogues attacking the Antarctic Mansion, it will be very troublesome, we have to get out of here quickly"

Chen Zhang shook his head as he spoke.

"Originally, I hoped to transport some goods to the capital to sell, but I didn't expect that all of them were bought by the prefect in Antarctic Mansion, which saved us trouble."

When the guy heard this, he immediately lowered his head.

Just kidding, he could tell the other party a lot of news, but he didn't dare to say a word about the prefect.
