God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

Chapter 121 Conversation
"Inform him to come in." Chen Xi looked around and saw that there was nothing special or secret, so he said to the messenger waiting outside.

After receiving the order, the messenger immediately saluted, then turned around and left.

Wei Zhen stood outside the Taishan Government Affairs Office, looking at the office space in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

How poor must Taishan County be to become what it is now? If it weren't for the soldiers standing next to the Government Affairs Office, Wei Zhen wouldn't believe that this was the Government Affairs Office of Taishan County.

But seeing this situation, Wei Zhen.There are also some people who understand why Taishan County would exchange such precious knowledge for food and money.

It's good to be shabby, it's better to be poor, so that they can take out the real good things. When Wei Zhen thought of this, he relaxed a lot.

Even if the transaction is half completed, as long as the transaction is not over, we cannot take it lightly. After all, there are still so many bamboo slips that have not been obtained.

"Mr. Wei, please come in." The messenger ran out of the door of the Government Affairs Office, saluted Wei Zhen, and then extended his hand to signal Wei Zhen to enter the Government Affairs Office.

Wei Zhen nodded, returned a half salute, and then followed the soldiers into the Government Affairs Office.

Wei Zhen thought it would be better inside the Government Affairs Office, but he crossed the gate of the Government Affairs Office and passed the front yard of the Government Affairs Office. The weeds in the yard had not even been repaired, and he felt even more helpless. But at the same time, he was worried about the transaction. The success rate increases again.

"Mr. Wei, please come in. You have to walk the rest of the way by yourself." The soldier said to Wei Zhen, "After entering, the first person sitting on the left is Jun Cheng. Sir, please pay attention."

After the soldier finished explaining, he turned around and left.

Wei Zhen looked at the soldier's behavior. Although he didn't understand it, he didn't think much and stepped in directly.

Wei Zhen entered the Government Affairs Office and found that there were some differences between the inside and the outside.

At least the people here are quite busy. There are even many people coming in and out with bamboo slips. Wei Zhen looked at the door he just entered with some doubts. He didn't understand why these people didn't go in and out through the door, but Choose the small door on the side to enter and exit.

When Chen Xi saw Wei Zhen entering from the gate, he put down the pen in his hand, stood up slowly, and under Fan Qin's expectant eyes, left his position and walked towards the gate.

Wei Zhen looked at the position where Chen Xi stood up and knew that this person was the county magistrate of Taishan County, and he quickly saluted.

Chen Xi couldn't help but stop himself when he saw this etiquette and returned the courtesy.

After the two saluted each other, Chen Xi walked out of the door first. Wei Zhen saw this situation and quickly followed.

Standing on the steps outside the gate, Chen Xi looked at the weeds in the distance and said calmly, "Gong Zhen, why do you want to come to Taishan County?"

"The matter is so important that we can only come in person." Wei Zhen said with a hint of calmness in his tone, and his words made others trust him, as if this was the real reason.

Chen Xi did not ask in detail and nodded, assuming that the reason was true.

"Then what are you going to do when you come this time?" Chen Xi looked at Wei Zhen beside him and said easily, "The bamboo slips you want have been prepared for a long time. As long as the food is in place, you can take them away at any time." Don’t worry, it’s only 400 million shi. If you pass through Mou County from Xuzhou, you will have 100 million shi of food.” Wei Zhen said calmly, as if this matter was very simple.

"As for the other 300 million shi, I will come here this time and bring 120 million shi from Yanzhou." Wei Zhen thought for a while and continued, "Later, 80 shi of grain will be transferred from Jizhou, probably early next month. From Jibei Kingdom, the last 100 million shi of grain will be sent from Xuzhou, through Nancheng or Huaxian, to Fenggao. It will take at most two months to collect the grain."

Chen Xi looked at the calm expression on Wei Zhen's face and was a little surprised. This was a total of 400 million stones of food and grass. Although it was all transferred from neighboring counties, it did not mean that the consumption on the road would be very small. To Fenggao, at least [-]% will be lost on the road.

Moreover, the Wei family also said that if they bear the cost on the road, they will have to bear at least more than 120 million shi of additional food consumption.

All these together, even for the Wei family, it is not a small number.

If we put it all together, even if three other aristocratic families share half of the original price, the Wei family would have to pay more than one billion, which is really courageous.

With this amount of money, he can use it as he pleases. As expected of the head of an aristocratic family, making such a decisive choice is really surprising.

Chen Xi looked at Wei Zhen seriously, trying to see any other expression on his face, but failed.

Wei Zhen's expression was calm from beginning to end. He didn't feel there was anything wrong with his father's behavior, and naturally he wouldn't show other expressions.

"But since you are transporting it like this, forget about the grain and grass you brought this time. If you come from Jizhou, put it directly in Shanchi. If you come from Xuzhou, put half of it each in Nancheng and Huaxian. Anyway, you haven't transferred it yet. Is there no problem?" Chen Xi put down his hand, thought for a moment, and then said.

Wei Zhen was silent for a while, recalling these locations in his mind, then looked at Chen Xi and said directly, "Thank you."

"It doesn't matter, you will have to walk less this way." Chen Xi recalled the distance between the two parties and selected some counties that were close to the opposite transportation distance to load the transported grain.

Wei Zhen didn't say anything when he saw this, and silently noted this in his heart. Although the county magistrate in front of him was too young, he seemed to be a good person.

With a simple arrangement, the food lost by the Wei family was reduced by at least 40%, which is close to [-] dan of food.

"How is it? How about Taishan? Are you interested in coming to Taishan?" Chen Xi thought about the situation of the Wei family and said with a hint of joking, "Without considering the family, are you interested?"

Wei Zhen originally wanted to reject the first sentence, but was stunned when he heard the last sentence.

Don't you think about your family?He was so willful. At this moment, Wei Zhen finally remembered what the young county magistrate in front of him had done.

That is the Yingchuan Chen family, one of the few aristocratic families in the world. They give up when they are told. This is not a small courage.

"I'm sorry, Zichuan, Zhen can't do this, can't be as free and easy as Zichuan." Wei Zhen said with a hint of envy, "The family has put too many things on me, I don't want to Maybe I should give up these things and make my own choices. At this point, we are different."
