"You two want to buy food?" Wu Chenglin looked at the two businessmen wearing brocade flowery clothed and asked, "I don't know how much you want to buy and where to ship it to. ."

"We know the rules of Xiliang, please rest assured Mr. Wu, we will never let the grain go to the grassland, this time, our grain will be shipped to the south."

"Isn't the southern side rich in grain? Why do you still need to come to our northwest side to buy grain?" Wu Chenglin is not a countryman who doesn't know anything, although he did grow up on the land of the northwest, but He still has some knowledge of other parts of Dagan.

More than half of the grains of Daqian grain come from the south, so people from the south come to the north to buy grain, which makes people have to doubt their motives, or that there is a big problem in the south.

To buy food in other places, you only need to say how much you need to pay, but when you buy food in the northwest Xiliang forces, you have to be questioned and pursued constantly, which makes the two The businessman feels very uncomfortable.

But the problem is that now the grain is in the hands of Xiliang, they have to answer each other's questions if they want to get the grain to buy the grain.

Before they came, they had already asked other grain merchants.

There is also a reason for Xiliang to be so vigilant, because Xiliang is now under the threat of prairie people, and at the same time, the king of Xiliang, Li Xiang, led an army to the Three Great Families on the land of Liang Province. Bloody fight.

If these grains end up in the hands of the Three Great Families in Liang Province, or the steppe people who have no more forage now.

For Xiliang, aren't they shooting themselves in the foot?

Therefore, every merchant who buys grain on a large scale must go through strict control, and only those who pass the customs can buy a large amount of grain from Xiliang.

As for those who didn't pass the question, I'm sorry, go back and forth from where.

However, although there are many problems, the grain reserves of Xiliang are really large. Which one of the first few merchants who bought grain is not rewarded?

Selling grains from one ship to the south, at twice the price of buying from the northwest side, which businessman wouldn't do such a profitable thing?

But it's really not easy to get food from Xiliang, so only when Your Majesty buys food, you don't need to go through these Xiliang people's inquiries.

"There is indeed something wrong in the south, so there are not many people in the southern land now cultivating. Except for the seeds left as seeds, basically there is not much food that can be circulated."

I starve to death without eating seeds.

This is something that the entire Daqian dynasty, north, south, east and west abides by. The seeds of grain represent a bumper harvest in the coming year. If you eat the seeds of grain, what will you eat in the coming year?

So no matter how hungry those people are, as long as they don't starve to death immediately, they will never move their seeds

"I don't know what the two of you want. How much food to buy!" Wu Chenglin asked.

The older of the two businessmen stood up and said, "I don't know how much the Northwest can sell?"

Wu Chenglin listened with a smile on his face: "I'm in the Northwest. It has become a large warehouse in the northwest, not to mention a lot of food, but I can still get a million stone, it just depends on the two people who don't have enough money!"

"Million stone," middle age person He hesitated for a while: "Isn't there more? The two of us have traveled in the northwest for a while. Considering the current grain output in the northwest, one million stone, your harvest has already exceeded this amount. Let's do it."

Wu Chenglin looked at the two businessmen with a serious look. He had a little contempt before, but now he hears the businessman's words, and he takes back his contempt.

"Listen to your words, the quantity you want to buy exceeds one million stone?"

Wu Chenglin already had some guesses about the identities of these two people at this time, but more I have to wait for the news that comes back from the exercise.

The merchants who came to the northwest to buy grain before, most of them only bought tens of thousands of shi of grain,

the most was only 200,000 shi.

Just from the food I sold, I got more money than I earned in the whole year last year.

The more grain they sell, the higher the commission for these people, but there is also a rigid requirement for them, that is, the grain must not be allowed to flow into the grasslands and the Three Great Where the Families are.

As long as a little grain falls into these two places, his position will come to an end.

So he is extremely cautious about the merchants who come to buy grain from the south, because he knows very well that if he really provokes the lord, even if he has something to do with the princess, the lord will cut off his head. .

So he obediently and honestly checked all the merchants thoroughly before choosing to sell them the grain. For those secretive merchants, he would never give or sell grain.

Who knows if these people will sell their grain to the grasslands and the three families in the south. If the lord finds Xiliang rice on the battlefield, his head will soon move.

But if it really sells more than one million shi of grain, or gets a share that is enough to pay everyone in their department for two or three years.

He who had little interest at first also instantly became in great spirits. If the other party buys 1 million shi of grain, all of them will get rid of poverty and enter the middle class of Xiliang.

"The amount of food we need is huge. 1 million stone grains are just the beginning. If you have more grains, we can buy them all!" Speaking middle- The aged man said high-spirited and vigorously: "We don't have much other things, but more gold and silver."

It's arrogant!

"Don't say 1 million shi of grain, even if It is 2,003,000,000, and we can all pay it off at one time."

There is no such thing as delivery first and then payment here. If you want to get the goods here, you Gotta get the money.

If goods and money were cleared at the same time, Xiliang would not be in trouble even if something happened.

"Can these two wait for me to ask my superiors for instructions?" Wu Chenglin can no longer make decisions about the millions of grains. according to.

Zhang Qingyun can also control part of the food, but the food used by Zhang Qingyun can only be used for food and cannot be sold.

The food that can be sold is controlled by Li Yi. If you want to buy food, you must first ask Li Yi for instructions.

Of course, this is in the case of a very large amount. If it is within 200,000 to 300,000 shi, Wu Chenglin and the others can still decide the grain.

"Then I'm going to trouble the adults!" Wu Chenlin nodded, and said to the person next to him: "Let the back kitchen prepare some tea and bring it over, and serve these two well, I will go to Director Li's place. ."

The two businessmen listened carefully to Wu Chenglin's words, they knew that there were two Chief Managers in the northwestern land.

One is Zhang Qingyun, and the other is mysterious. No one knows what he looks like, and no one knows what he is in charge of. All they know is that he is Li Yi and a woman.

Most of the time they stay in the building of Xiliang headquarters, and most of the people who come in and out are people from Xiliang headquarters.

So they know very little about Li Yi. Many people have gone to investigate Li Yi's background, but unfortunately they have found nothing.

He was born just like these soldiers from the headquarters of Xiliang.

But this person should be very trusted by Li Xiang, otherwise he wouldn't be in charge of the affairs of Xiliang headquarters.

Everyone knows that the Xiliang headquarters is the main body of the Xiliang forces, and Li Xiang's basis is also the soldiers of the Xiliang headquarters.

As for the other newly recruited officials and troops, they are all just to make up for the lack of numbers in the Xiliang headquarters. If the Xiliang headquarters has sufficient manpower, it is estimated that Li Xiang will not recruit other arms. .

Everyone knows how stubborn the soldiers of Xiliang headquarters are in the power of Xiliang. As long as they feel that you violated the laws and regulations of Xiliang, then you will be surrounded by them. You will not leave until you are sent to the yamen to be convicted.

Because of the presence of these soldiers from the headquarters of Xiliang, the management of public security in the northwest far exceeds that of the Central Plains. Here you can't see hooligans, you can't see those beggars, and the children of the Aristocratic Family don't dare. Violate in the streets and alleys.

Because of those soldiers in the headquarters of Xiliang who are in charge of public security management, they really dare to draw out their own swords and cut people like this.

Their master is Li Xiang, and they only follow the orders of one person, so if you want to suppress them in other ways, you can only say that you think too much.

In the northwest, who can be bigger than Li Xiang?

Isn't even Princess going to the northwest side quietly in the palace, without any trouble?

Li Xiang, the king of Xiliang, is the emperor here, and he is even more comfortable than the emperor, because this piece of land was conquered by him himself, and the land he conquered will always be better than the land he inherited. Comfortable.

No one dared to defy Li Xiang's will, let alone threaten Li Xiang with other things.

Weapons, equipment, food, territory, army, individual martial power, Li Xiang has everything.

He basically does not need external support, and does not need to take into account external forces.

The actions and expressions of the two people all In Wu Chenglin's eyes, Wu Chenglin didn't really care, because he knew very well that even if these people knew where Li Yi lived, it was impossible for them to come into contact with Li Yi.

Director Li Yi is surrounded by guards, but there are more guards around than Manager Zhang Qingyun. The most important thing is that there is a Great Grandmaster expert sitting next to Manager Li.

And there is an army of more than 2,000 people stationed on the side. Those who are not afraid of death can go to investigate and see how they die.

"Your Excellency has investigated the identities of those two people. They belong to the people of the White Lotus Religion in the south. The White Lotus Religion occupies a large area of ​​land in the south, a large part of which is uncultivated, but they There were so many people there that the Imperial Court's army clashed with them from time to time in places with a lot of arable land.

This left them with fewer places to farm, so now they were very short of food , the Imperial Court has already ordered that food and White Lotus Religion are not allowed to be sold."

When the two merchants stepped into the land of Xiliang, Xiao Zuo had already discovered that the two men had very mysterious backgrounds.

So they sent people to investigate the information and identities of the two people, and they soon found out the identity of the other party.

They are merchants from the White Lotus Religion in the south. Before the White Lotus Religion rose, they were one of the few merchants in the world. of gold and silver jewelry, all of which became the capital of the White Lotus Religion uprising.

Now they are coming from the north, their intention is very obvious, that is, they want to buy food from Xiliang.

Hearing White Lotus Religion, Li Yi recalled that when they were outside the Northwest Pass, the lord's first pot of gold seemed to be obtained from White Lotus Religion. At that time, everyone was worried that White Lotus Religion would not Will chase all the way to Xiliang City.

It is also relying on that batch of gold and silver jewelry that the lord embarked on the road to rise.

And there is also a silhouette of White Lotus Religion behind the princess's father. The princess doesn't know about this. The princess's father thinks that she is hiding well, but she doesn't know that she has been under the surveillance of Xiliang's fine works. .

"If they want to buy food, sell them at market price, but if they want to make any other ideas, then cut off all their claws for me.

The White Lotus Religion may be strong in the south, but we are here in Xiliang, and this is our territory.”

dong dong dong

The sound of footsteps came, and a soldier came to Li Yi said in front of him: "General Manager, Wu Chenglin, who is in charge of grain sales outside, asks to see you."

"Say Cao Cao Cao Cao is here." Li Yi smiled and said to the commander of fine work: "It must be the two merchants from White Lotus Religion. I want to buy a lot of food from him, because there are too many reasons, come and ask me for instructions, you go down and continue to supervise the two of them, and find out all the White Lotus Religion in my Western Liang.”

There are sects all over the world, but Xiliang does not believe in those sects, so there are basically not many religions in Xiliang. Except for Taoism, which the lord personally invited, other religions will soon be driven by Li Yi go.

Now Xiliang doesn't need those religions to enter. Religion may bring peace to the commoners to a certain extent, but another disadvantage brought about by religion is that they will disturb the regime.

Li Yike does not believe that there will be another White Lotus Religion, or a force like Buddhism.

From the history of Dagan, we can find out how much the emperor of Dagan paid to drive out Buddhism. In that war, many people only saw how much gold, silver, jewelry and land were obtained later.

I didn't see the war in the future. Dagan and Buddhaism had all their cards, and there were even rumors that a golden powerhouse would play.

In the end, it was just to drive Buddhaism to the Yellow Sands of the Western Regions. After Buddhaism arrived in the Yellow Sands of the Western Regions, it was even more reckless.

Those believers in the Buddha Country in Huangsha Nei only know that there is a Buddha but not a country.

Several mighty countries have been weakened by the rise of Buddhism, and now they are only struggling to support them.
