Chapter 169: Broken Things
"Ah Pet, what are you going to do with these people? Da Honglu went here, this time and again, but it was a matter of a month or two" In the grain and grass, Shao Yuan said to Gao Pet while taking stock of the grain and grass. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Gao Zhong frowned and looked at the new grain shelf, and said with a smile, "Do you really think it will take so long? In my opinion, at most forty days, someone will come to rescue the boss of the orchid, the boss who has poor Da Wanma."
Master Shaoyuan nodded, "That's right, by the way, what is written on that secret letter?
Gao Chong smiled bitterly and said, "If I say that we seem to have really kicked the iron plate, are you afraid?"
Shaoyuan looked at Gao Chong's expression, and his own smile froze, "What?
Gao Zhong took out the letter from his arms and looked at it with Shaoyuan, Shaoyuan looked at the letter, it turned out that this batch of dancing girls was given to Zhang Situ by the king of the city, and getting this batch of dancing girls is indeed a hot potato. But immediately, Shaoyuan immediately understood why Gao Zhong wanted to report this matter to Da Honglu, the bigger the incident, the more they took advantage. No wonder Ah Pet was so impulsive at that time, more to make a show and make a gesture, even if they knew that it was you behind them, they were not afraid of you, because we had the emperor's support.
Gao Zhong looked at these grains and grasses, and did not continue to conceal them, "Shaoyuan, do you know the true meaning of the grain?"
Shao Yuan shook his head, how could he know about such a thing......
Gao Zhong took the account book and said, "Originally, I did this plate of grain by hand, do you remember the expression of the county commander at that time? He seemed to be very scared, and we checked the grain stocks in four or five counties along the way, and there was a general shortage of about 3,000 stone of grain."
Shaoyuan nodded, he had read the account book, it was caused by the innovation, but since Gao Zhong could mention it, I was afraid that there was something wrong behind it, so he didn't speak, and continued to wait for Gao Chong's explanation.
Gao Zhong nodded, "That's right, but the grain and grass are generally in and out every three years, why are there two consecutive years in and out, where does the old grain go?"
Shao Yuan frowned and said, "Someone is deducting military rations, but there are only three thousand stones in each county, this amount is not big or small, and it is difficult to guess the purpose."
Gao Zhong nodded, "When the foreign tribe disappears and disappears, I suspect that someone has scattered all the military rations scattered in each place, and some of it must have flowed into the foreign race."
Shao Yuan recalled the foreign tribes, and suddenly remembered, "Tea, they disappeared, no one came to buy tea?"
Gao Zhong showed a meaningful smile: "That's right, there are no foreigners to buy tea, but there are people who buy tea on the Silk Road! Therefore, I think there must be a connection between the two." ”
Shaoyuan continued to calculate, "There is only one person who can have such a great influence on the Silk Road!"
Gao Zhong nodded, "It's the king of the city, but he actually started to stammer Zhang Situ, I'm afraid there is a monstrous wave behind him."
Shaoyuan frowned, "Can't we do something?"
Gao Chong also shook his head slightly, "Do it to do, but how to do it, you really have to think about it"
Shao Yuan smiled, "Anyway, there is no rule now, why don't we make a random move first, after all, the opponent won't wait, let's try to act and test it?"
Gao Zhong looked at Shaoyuan and asked, "Shaoyuan, what do you think?"
Shaoyuan attached his ear canal to Gao Pet's side, and whispered a method.
Inside the cell, Ma Shang was confessing to his true god, he didn't know if he had broken any precepts, he assured that he just found some Western Regions flower girls to drink, and he didn't move his hands or feet, while he kept muttering and praying. And Shao Yuan and Gao Chong, who were watching him from the side, yawned again and again, thinking of respecting this businessman and not disturbing him to do some strange things, who knew that this guy actually maintained that posture for nearly half an hour, and still kept chanting words.
After another hour, Ma Shang finally finished repenting, and when he looked back, he found that the 'biggest official' was dozing off on the side, so he hurriedly said, "Hello, Official, it was a misunderstanding before"
Ma Shang's cry woke up Shaoyuan and Gao Chong, who were asleep because of boredom on the side, Shaoyuan rubbed his eyes and patted Gao Chong, "Ah Pet, wake up, that person is done, it's our turn"
Gao Pet rubbed his eyes and woke up, and asked, "Well, what were you doing just now?"
The merchant said, "I am confessing to my all-knowing God, and I must have done something wrong for the true God to punish me like this."
Shaoyuan stopped them, "Okay, I'm the one who punishes you now, not your all-knowing god, or I'll give you a chance, you help me do something, and I'll let you out, how about it?"
Ma Shang hurriedly nodded, "Lord Guan said lightly, as long as I don't disobey God's teachings, I can do it."
Shaoyuan shook his head, "It's not so serious, after you go out, take your horse, immediately rush to the Wuwei Dart Bureau, leave the horse in the Dart Bureau, how many horses do you have?"
The horse merchant thought about it, "About twenty horses, put them in the Central Plains, can be sold for a lot of money."
Shaoyuan squinted, "Then how much do you want to sell?"
Ma Shang felt the threat of death from Shaoyuan, so he said, "No more, no more, at most two thousand taels"
Shaoyuan nodded, "That's okay, you take your people to Wuwei as fast as possible, put the horse in Wuwei's Dingyuan Dart Bureau, we will give you tea, you sell these teas to the caravans along the line, you must sell them all, at least more than four thousand taels." In the end, when you are closed in the Yumen, I will send someone to transport you the same value of high-grade Shu brocade or Yangxiu, and the money and goods will be cleared, how about it?"
Looking at such a rich income, businessmen chase profits, many times, even their lives will be taken on the line, in the face of the benefits that can be earned, how can he not be moved, more, he knows that he has no right to refuse at all, so he happily said, "Okay, Mr. Guan, I, believe in you"
Shaoyuan nodded with satisfaction, "I'll let you out tomorrow, before that, I have to prepare first, and I'll wronged you."
Out of the cell, Gao Zhong asked, "Shaoyuan, do you want to trouble them? Or do you want to trouble me?" For a while, silk is easy to handle, where can I get so much tea for a while?"
Shaoyuan said, "It's okay to be shoddy, the weight is not heavy on quality, give the worst tea, count as the most expensive price, good tea is on the table, this tea is good at the bottom"
Gao Pet still didn't understand, "So, is there any point in letting it out like this?"
Shao Yuan replied, "Yes, at the very least, can we find the approximate location of those alien races that may disappear through these tea leaves?"
Gao Pet thought about it, it did have this effect, but it couldn't be traced too far, and the effect dropped greatly when it came out of the Han border. So he said, "If you go out of the country, the effect will be greatly reduced!"
Shaoyuan patted Gao Chong's shoulder and said, "If we go out of the country, then don't we have a general direction?"
Gao Zhong finally understood this plan, "Shaoyuan, you want to find out where the goal of these alien races is, right?"
Shaoyuan showed a smile, "That's right"
