Lin Zhiping was shocked: "Young Master Yang, do you want to repair the canal?"

Yang Fan nodded: "That's right, this is a one-and-done thing, it should have been done a long time ago, Mr. Lin, do you know the talent for canal repair?"

Lin Zhiping was stunned, and said puzzledly: "This is a big project, it costs a lot of silver, why did Yang Gongzi do this? ”

Yang Fan: "Let Lingnan County have the ability to resist natural disasters, so many people will not starve to death in the future, and there will be no more rebellion, let's go, let's go back, see how Brother Ouyang and they are doing, and we will go to meet the person you said later." ”

Yin Tianen followed all the way, only knowing that this Yang Fan had a whimsical idea to repair a canal in Lingnan County, and he was a little suspicious in his heart, this person was afraid that he was sick.

The group returned to the city gate, where Ouyang Tao and Li Kai were already waiting.

Yang Fan looked at Ouyang Tao and asked, "Brother Ouyang, how are you doing there?"

Ouyang Tao clenched his fists and said: "The disaster situation here has already been reported, and the imperial court has also allocated money for disaster relief, but where did this disaster relief money go? ”

Yang Fan's eyes were cold: "What did the county order of Lingnan County do?"

Ouyang Tao also had a cold face: "The county order Jin Deli opens a small porridge shed from time to time, and what do you say about the emperor's grace, which is the money and rice of the imperial court to relieve Lingnan County." ”

Yang Fan: "Brother Ouyang, let me find a way to keep an eye on this Jin Deli and his family, what do they eat in the morning, noon and evening? ”

Ouyang said: "Yes." ”

Yin Tianen and He Xiaoling were completely stunned, this performance made them feel that Ouyang Tao and Li Kai were Yang Fan's subordinates.

In fact, Ouyang Tao is positioned like this, they are here to assist Yang Fan, so they are naturally subordinates.

Yang Fan asked Li Kai: "Brother Li, what's the situation on your side?"

Li Kai said embarrassedly: "I went to a few rice stores to ask, and they all said that there is not much rice in storage, so the price keeps rising." ”

Yang Fan smiled bitterly, Li Kai is still not very suitable for this kind of work: "Take me to the largest rice store in the city, and let's talk about business." ”

Li Kai: "We don't have much money on our hands. ”

Yang Fan: "It's okay, you don't have to have money to talk about business. ”

Li Kaiqian led the way, and the group went to the largest rice store in the county, Huangji Rice Store.

Yang Fan walked in and sat on the stool with a big grin: "Who is in charge here?"

A thin old man walked over and looked at Yang Fan with disdain, because Yang Fan's dress was indeed too shabby.

"What's the matter with the guest officer?"

Yang Fan said with a smile: "You are here for rice, so I naturally came to buy rice." ”

Thin old man: "You don't need to come in to buy rice, just outside." ”

Yang Fan: "I buy more. ”

Thin old man: "Then how much do you want to buy?"

Yang Fan: "How many of you have?"

The thin old man took a sip of tea from the teacup and said with a smile: "We will buy as much as you want." ”

Yang Fan cocked Erlang's legs: "Then give me 10,000 stones first." ”

Before the thin old man swallowed a sip of tea, a mouth squirted out, 10,000 stones, according to the current price of rice, that is 200,000 taels of silver, how can people not be surprised, and, in addition to the rice line, who can consume so much rice?

Not to mention the thin old man, even Ouyang Tao and He Xiaoling and others who followed up were shocked.

The thin old man coughed twice: "Are you looking for an old man?"

Yang Fan: "I'll just ask you if you have one?"

The thin old man: "What are you buying so much rice for?"

Yang Fan pouted and said: "You care about me, it's none of your business if I take it to the river to feed the fish, you just need to tell me if there is one." ”

The thin old man's face was embarrassed for a while: "This business needs to invite the owner to come, and I can't be the master, but if you want to see my owner, you have to let me see your strength." ”

Yang Fan sneered, took out a scroll of holy decree from his arms and threw it on the table, you open it yourself and see if this strength is enough.

The thin old man's eyelids jumped, bright yellow, this is a holy decree, where does he dare to take it: "I didn't ask the adults what to call it." ”

Lin Zhiping, Yin Tianen and He Xiaoling on the side also looked at the holy decree on the table in shock, what is the identity of this Yang Fan?

Yang Fan: "The new Qianniu guard guards Yang Fan." ”

The thin old man hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "It turned out that Yang Shoubei was here, I don't know what Yang Shoubei wants so much rice for?"

Yang Fan's eyes widened: "Do I need to explain to you?"

Thin old man: "No, no, I'm going to invite our host to come over." ”

The thin old man hurriedly retreated.

Yin Tianen said curiously: "Yang Fan, aren't you the head of the Wutong faction? ”

Lin Zhiping hurriedly got up and saluted: "Students see Yang Shoubei." ”

Yang Fan waved his hand, frowned, and said, "There is no conflict between me being the head and guarding at the same time, then I am still the owner of Qingfeng Villa." ”

Ouyang Tao was puzzled: "Yang Fan, what exactly do you want to do?"

Yang Fan grabbed his fist and said in a low voice: "This old man is weird, I want 10,000 stone rice, he didn't directly refuse, 10,000 stone rice can almost let Lingnan County survive this famine, if there is really so much grain in stock, why is the price of rice so high? ”

Li Kai clenched his fists: "I know." ”

It didn't take long for a group of people to walk in outside, and the leader was a rich old man.

The old man came in with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Huang Youde, a grass citizen, saw Yang Shoubei, but he didn't know that Yang Shoubei was coming, and he missed the distance, and he hoped to forgive his sins." ”

Yang Fan smiled: "Boss Huang, I'm here to buy rice, just treat me as an ordinary customer." ”

Huang Youde: "I heard that Yang Shoubei wants to buy 10,000 stone of rice, is this true?"

Yang Fan nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Huang Youde showed a bitter gourd face: "Yang Shoubei doesn't know, there is a big drought in Lingnan County, and in the next season today, there will be no harvest in the fields, but I am afraid that the rice in the entire Lingnan County will add up to less than 10,000 stones." ”

Yang Fan: "Then I want as much as you have." ”

Huang Youde: "I can only take out a hundred stones, any more, we will all be hungry, and I ask Yang Shoubei to understand." ”

Yang Fan: "Okay, then a hundred stones, I'm going to take it now." ”

Huang Youde was stunned: "Yang Shoubei, the current price of rice is a bit high. ”

Yang Fan waved his hand: "Just give it to me according to the market price, I don't have that much money on me, I'll send someone to send it to you in the future." ”

Huang Youde frowned: "Mi Xing doesn't have this rule. ”

Yang Fan slapped the table with a slam on the table, his eyes were like electricity, and he shouted, "Boss Huang doesn't trust me?"

Huang Youde's body trembled, and he coughed embarrassedly, how can Yang Shoubei say that he will change his face, and said in a low voice: "How dare you, it's just ......"

Yang Fan said impatiently: "Then do as I say, I will take away a hundred stone meters now." ”
