Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 89 Wang Youcai (recommendation ticket requested)

Meng County in Shanxi is only tens of miles away from Lin County, Zhending Prefecture, but the folk customs are quite different. In terms of area and population, Meng County is much larger than Lin County, and its streets are much wider than Lin County.

But the only similarity between the two counties is that the people on the streets are all ragged, with sallow faces, malnourished and listless.

Meng County is located at the junction, and there are two rows of sergeants holding spears standing at the gate of the city.

Liu Hongjian thought it would be a little troublesome to enter the city, but Gu Ran took out five taels of silver from his waist, and the big soldiers who had been glaring at Yang Xue behind Liu Hongjian suddenly turned their attention to the white silver.

These days, the most important thing is to be able to eat enough. The so-called fullness and warmth, first of all, is to be able to eat and wear warmth.

Gu Ran led Liu Hongjian and others into the city and explained the location of Wang Ji's grain shop, then went back to his home to wait for news.

Liu Hongjian walked forward, followed by Yang Xue, and two bodyguards, Niu Zhuang and Li Baida. They also carried AKM wrapped in linen on their backs.

The Wang family's main business is food and fur trafficking, and part-time smuggling. Their financial resources rank among the top five in Shanxi. Almost every county has a Wang family's shop, which can be called the top one in Shanxi.

But in Meng County, the native Gu's family has the right time, place and people, and their business has been suppressing the Wang's shop. Since Lao Gu was arrested and the shop was closed down, the people had no choice but to go to the Wang's shop to buy food.

Manager Wu of the Wang Family Grain Shop, who has always been very leisurely, has been very busy these days. Although it was still early and there were no customers in the shop, he was still happily calculating yesterday's accounts.

Seeing that it's the end of the month, and the business is so hot this month, maybe the little shopkeeper will be happy to reward some money.

The door curtain was lifted, and a young man dressed in brocade came in, followed by a beautiful maidservant, and two strong men who were tall and thick.

"Hey, young master, what do you want to order? Our store has high-quality rice and noodles, all of which are new products received this year!"

Manager Wu is in his 40s this year. From the face of the person who came in, he knew that he was a big customer.

"Go, go, stay away from my master. Is my master a petty person like you who can get close?"

Seeing Wu Guanshi miss it with a shy face, a big man behind him blocked Wu Guanshi from the outside with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, yes, sir, please do as you please! If you have anything to do, just look for it below." Steward Wu was not angry, but stroked his beard in embarrassment.

In his opinion, the more arrogant you are, the more you have great strength behind you. Strength equals financial resources. Being rich means having big business, so naturally you should treat yourself well and not be negligent.

I saw this young man walking to the store's rice tank, grabbed a handful of rice, put it under his nose, sniffed it, nodded and shook his head, looking dissatisfied.

"My lord, the rice in our shop is definitely the highest quality in Meng County, and it's all new from the south..." Manager Wu boasted of his own rice.

The young man didn't answer, then grabbed another handful of white flour, and kneaded it decently, but the flour turned out to be lumpy, and he frowned.

"Is this the new product you said? It's so moldy, you tell me it's a new product?" Liu Hongjian threw the flour in his hand to Manager Wu's face.

Guanshi Wu suddenly became a white-faced scholar.

"My lord, this... This side is... a bit damp. It was originally intended to be sold to those people who don't have much money outside. If you need it, the young master will naturally get new goods for the young master, new goods."

The more arrogant you are, the happier Manager Wu is, big customer!

"Hmph, my son is a person who has read countless rice. You only need to smell these rice and noodles to know the quality!" Liu Hongjian frowned when he saw that this could not anger the steward in front of him.

This TMD's temper is too good!

"Yes, yes, the villain dare not lie to the young master!" Wu Guanshi took out his handkerchief, touched his face, and echoed.

"Go and call your shopkeeper, my son is a big business this time, you can't be the master!"

"This..., to tell you the truth, my lord, the little one has been in this grain store for more than ten years, you just need to say how much you want, the little one can still make the decision!"

Before the meeting, the rich man finally got to the point, Guanshi Wu was immediately overjoyed, the young shopkeeper is indeed good in our shop, but the young shopkeeper seems to be doing good things with the maid, how dare he disturb him?
"Hmph, my young master needs 50 shi white rice, you may be the one to decide!" Liu Hongjian snorted coldly and looked at Shopkeeper Wu.

"Ah—fifty... ten thousand stones!" Shopkeeper Wu dropped his handkerchief to the ground in shock. Although the Wang family's family has a great business, even if all the grain stores in the Wang family's grain store are mobilized, it may not be enough for half of it!

"Yes, you heard that right, it's 50 shi, can you make the decision?"

"This... please wait a moment, my lord, I will inform the shopkeeper right away."

No matter, I believe that the young shopkeeper knows this big deal, so he shouldn't blame me for ruining his good deed!
Just weighing the pros and cons, a white-faced young man walked out of the inner room, followed by a pretty maid with a pink complexion.

"Who is making noise outside!" The white-faced young man seemed to have just finished his physical work, and he walked a little unsteadily.

"Young shopkeeper, are you finished?" Steward Wu hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face, asking for help.

"Made, old Wu, you startled me, how did you make it look like this?"

Guanshi Wu was smeared with pale face. Although he wiped it with a handkerchief, his face was still white and yellow, just like the white-faced treacherous ministers on the stage of later generations.

"This...it's a long story, young shopkeeper, this is a big customer, he wants to buy 50 shi of rice!"

Guanshi Wu didn't care about his appearance at all, and approached the white-faced young man with a shy face and whispered something, the white-faced young man looked disgusted.

"Oh?" The white-faced young man looked suspicious, glanced at the person in front of him, and at Yang Xue behind him, not only his eyes lit up.

He naturally knows that his family doesn't have that much rice, but it doesn't matter, his family doesn't have enough, so he can contact a few big families, and when the time comes to quote a lower price with the big families, he can get a lot of kickbacks.

The white-faced young man was thinking very fast in his mind, and he even thought about how to cheat his family and the big guy in front of him.

"You are Xiao Wang!" Liu Hongjian was also looking at the young man in front of him who was called the young shopkeeper.

"My lord, Wang Youcai, is the shopkeeper of our store. I wonder what advice you can give me?" The white-faced young man stepped forward and cupped his hands, completely oblivious to the implication.

Really boring, no sense of humor!Liu Hongjian cursed inwardly.

"In Shangzhao Si, it is the food and fodder officer under the command of His Majesty the Emperor Zhang Xianzhong of the Great West. I have sent money to your royal family this time, but I don't know if your royal family can eat it!" Liu Hongjian said brazenly.
