"In business, just pay for the money and the goods. You want wine, I want food, and the goods are right. I don't care who your master is. This is the rule of doing business." Ye Chen said with a smile.
The messenger was overjoyed, and he directly cupped his hands and said, "My master did not read your Highness wrong, then we will see you tomorrow."
Chapter 339
After the messenger left, Ye Chen shook his little thumb directly at the messenger's back: "If these bastards were in our army, I would have to light him up with a sky lantern!
Brothers, listen to what this bastard said, [-] catties of grain, really his grandma doesn't know how distressed he is!
There is indeed a lot of food in Zhang Lu City, [-] stone, enough for the military and civilians in his city to eat for half a year, but it is not so bad. "
Liu Che let out a long sigh: "Brother, you underestimated the greed of those little ones. They stole [-] catties of grain from the grain depot in exchange for your [-] catties of fine wine.
If nothing else, the price of these fine wines in the city has already reached sky-high prices. There are always people in the world who are not short of money, and there are many people who are willing to spend a lot of money to buy your wine and enjoy it.
Anyway, if there is a shortage of food in the city at that time, it will be those poor people who will really starve, not these squirrels and their customers. "
Ye Chen nodded: "His grandma, I really thought I didn't care who they were, I'll immediately notify the eyeliner in the city to see who is doing this business with me.
In the future, after we enter the city, the first thing to do is to blast these guys out. Anywhere such people stay is a curse! "
He said that he wanted to kill these guys, but in the next period of time, Ye Chen's business with the other party never stopped.
Seeing more than a month of effort, the other party's messenger came seven or eight times, and the people changed a few times in between. These people also came five or six times, and the amount of each transaction was much larger than the last time.
In the past month and a half, Ye Chen calculated an account. The [-] stone of grain in the city should have been consumed by one-third of it for normal consumption. In addition to these more than [-] transactions, almost every day there will be a few One hundred thousand catties of grain were smuggled out of the city.
In this way, Ye Chen estimated that he had already exchanged one-third of the food in the city just by using the wine.
"Including the food that the big mice usually deduct for himself, Zhang Lu's current stock of food is definitely not more than [-] stone, and if it is more precise, it should be around [-] stone.
If they continue to empty out the granary in their city at this speed, plus the military and civilians in his city to eat, at most half a month, there will be a grain shortage in the city. "Ye Chen said: "The battle that was originally expected to be six months can finally be compressed into two months to solve the problem. "
The development of the matter was no different from what Ye Chen had estimated. Two months later, Zhang Lu's messenger from the city came to deliver a list.
The messenger said with a smile: "This time I don't need other items. The city needs to purchase some food, and I also ask His Royal Highness to help purchase it. As for this price, we can add [-]% to His Highness according to the past price. hard work."
Ye Chen looked at the messenger, smiled slightly, and slowly tore the list into pieces.
The messenger was stunned for a moment: "Your Highness...you...what are you doing?"
"Don't do anything, this king is in a bad mood today. From today onwards, the transaction between our two sides will end here. Don't come to me in the future. I don't want to give you anything at all." Ye Chen said.
The messenger suddenly panicked: "But... His Royal Highness King Qi, there is a real shortage of food in the city right now..."
"If I were Zhang Lu, I would never invite an idiot like you to be a messenger." Ye Chen said, "I'm just doing business with you, do you really think of me as your confidant eldest sister?
Please, now we are fighting between the two armies. Our army is besieging your city. I finally heard that your city is short of supply.
You really think everyone else is as stupid as you! "
The messenger was completely stunned, and he stood there, remorseful in his heart.
yes!Ye Chen was so good at talking before, even Zhang Lu had forgotten what the situation was now, the two sides were at war!This is a life-and-death battle!
As a result, as soon as Ye Chen let go, Zhang Lu just thought he could sit back and relax and continue to eat, drink and play all day, but now it seems that things are going to be difficult to handle.
The messenger returned to the city in despair. When he heard the messenger's message, Zhang Lu sat down on his chair, his face ashen: "I'm so careless... to be so careless... It's really a bastard..."
And that night, Ye Chen directly held a banquet in the army to celebrate the victory of Hanzhong in advance...
"I said, Brother Ye Chen, isn't it a bit too flamboyant for us to do this now, and now Zhang Lu just sent someone out to buy food, which means that they just don't have enough food, but they are still far from running out of food. , let's start celebrating now, it's a bit too hasty." Liu Che said.
Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Brother Che, can't you see it? I did this on purpose to let the people in the opposite city know that they are short of food now, and the happier we are to celebrate, the hearts of the people in the city will be. will be more confused.
Because the more confident we are that Hanzhong City will be won, they will imagine that the situation of food shortage is more serious, the people in the city are in chaos, and Zhang Lu himself will be at a loss when the time comes.
At that time, as long as we let our insiders do a little trick in it, hehe, this city can really be won. "
Sure enough, the army on Ye Chen's side celebrated wildly that night, and the drum music was directly transmitted to the city head opposite. The soldiers at the head of the city saw that Zhang Lu was already celebrating the lack of food, and the city was about to be breached. spread in the city.
Seeing that a few days later, a large number of notices appeared in the city, who did not know who posted them, saying that there was a shortage of food in the city. If Zhang Lu decided to stick to it, the city would be starved and killed.
If a person of insight can open the city to surrender, and Master Wang enters the city, he will definitely be able to transport a large amount of food to solve the food crisis in the city.
The effect of this kind of heart-to-heart war is very terrifying. In an instant, people in the city are already panicking. That night, someone has already started, clearly admonishing Zhang Lu, hoping that Zhang Lu can see the whole city for the sake of the people, it is better to open Surrender the city.
Zhang Lu was so angry that he almost fainted: "This... This Ye Chen traded with us on the surface, but it turned out to be a hidden evil, who would have thought that his real purpose was this, it was me... I myself buried me. Foundation!".
Chapter 340
Zhang Lu is not a fool. At this stage, he knows that the city is dead and alive and can't stand it. He opened the city gate at noon that day, and brought a lot of civil and military, holding the seals, soldiers, flags and other items in the city. , standing at the gate to plead guilty.
Ye Chen smiled slightly: "See, it's called the time, let's go."
The army set off and soon came to the city. Ye Chen personally gave the seal from Zhang Lu: "Zhang Lu, we won Hanzhong like this, are you not convinced?"
Zhang Lu said with a sad face: "His Royal Highness King Qi, don't joke, I actually knew for a long time that this city can't stand it, but I am the chief official of this place. If your army arrives, I will directly open the city and surrender, and spread the word. It really doesn't sound good..."
Ye Chen stepped forward directly, grabbed Zhang Lu's jacket, lowered his voice and said, "Zhang Lu, listen to me, what's the use of playing tricks with us? Huh?
Before, if you could be a person who knows the current affairs, open the door early, and let you Zhang Lu continue to sit in Hanzhong, there is nothing wrong, but now, hum..."
Zhang Lu's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly knelt in front of Ye Chen: "Your Highness, spare your life."
"Okay 29, save yourself some face, I didn't want to kill you. Right now there is one county left in the east, so you can go to work there." Ye Chen said: "Being a county captain, at least you can get the job done. Your Zhang Lu family has no worries about food and clothing. For the rest of your life, regret why you are not a person who knows current affairs."
Zhang Lu sat on the side of the road, while Ye Chen led the army directly into the city.
That night, there was a big celebration in the city, and everyone sat in the mansion drinking and having fun together. When the banquet was in high spirits, Liu Che mentioned what to do next.
"Hanzhong and Xichuan have always been close to each other. After winning Hanzhong, the next step is to get Xichuan." Ye Chen said, "But it's still the old rule, you should pay respects first and then soldiers.
Our aim has always been to stop making noise if you can, who will go this time? "
Everyone looked at each other, Ye Chen smiled slightly: "I think we will let our military advisor Pang Tong go. Do you guys have any comments?"
Pang Tong smiled and said: 'Your Highness really knows my heart, I have been preparing for Xichuan all the time, and I am an old friend in Xichuan, so let me go this time. '
Ye Chen nodded, and at this moment, he heard a soldier speak at the door.
"His Royal Highness King Qi, Yang Song is asking to see you at the gate of the mansion," the soldier said.
Ye Chen slapped his forehead: "I'm going, why have I forgotten this stuff? What is he doing now? We didn't invite him for our celebration party?"
Zhuge Liang smiled indifferently: "His Royal Highness King Qi, all visitors are guests. Since Yang Song has already arrived, I might as well invite him in for a drink and see what he has to say."
"Okay, just listen to you and let him in."
The soldiers quickly brought Yang Song in. This guy is really cheeky enough. The celebration feast after he entered the city didn't count for him at all, but now he is too embarrassed to come uninvited.
"Little man Yang Song, see two His Majesties, His Royal Highness King Qi, two military advisors, and all generals." Yang Song knew the etiquette, and none of them were left behind.
Ye Chen said directly: "Yang Song, what is the matter with you coming to us?"
Yang Song hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, the villain actually wanted to surrender a long time ago, but Zhang Lu has repeatedly persecuted us people of insight in the city.
By the way, there is one more thing Your Highness doesn't know yet, before..."
"Okay, okay, I don't know what you can do to this king, it's not that you did the thing that you stole Zhang Lu's army rations to exchange for wine." Ye Chen said.
Hearing Ye Chen's words, Yang Song was overjoyed: "Yes, yes, it seems that His Highness has already learned something. That's right, this is what I did here. On the surface, I exchanged military rations for wine, but in fact, I just want to empty Zhang Lu's family as soon as possible so that His Royal Highness can enter the city."
Ye Chen smiled: "So you are really well-intentioned. If I don't reward you with something, I'm really a little sorry, don't I?"
"That's that... No, no, no, I don't mean to take credit, I just hope that Your Highness will give you a chance to continue to serve you and the court." Yang Song said.
"Okay, tell me what opportunity you want." Ye Chen said.
"Now that Zhang Lu has surrendered, Xichuan is just around the corner. As we all know, Xichuan and Hanzhong have always been close to each other, and the folk customs and climate are the same. I have been running Hanzhong for many years. If Xichuan can win it in the future, I am willing to lead the civil affairs of this Hanzhong and Xichuan. Guaranteed to make this place rich and prosperous!"
Ye Chen smiled: "You go down first, I'll discuss it with a few His Majesty."
Yang Song was stunned: "Your Highness, or else make a decision earlier."
"What decision this king does depends on your face now, doesn't it?" Ye Chen frowned suddenly.
Yang Song was shocked and knew that what he said just now was a little out of character, so he quickly handed over his hands: "I'm rude, Your Highness, don't blame me, I'll step down now, and don't disturb Your Highness and everyone's Yaxing."
Yang Song turned around and walked away, Liu Che frowned: "I said, Brother Ye Chen, that's all? Can we entrust him with the important matters of people's livelihood in these two places?"
"What's the hurry, I said, don't worry about the brothers first, doesn't Yang Song want to manage the livelihood of the two places, I have an idea now, we can satisfy him." Ye Chen said with a smile.
Liu Che and Li Shimin exploded at once: "Brother Ye Chen, let's not joke about this kind of thing! How can such a person let him manage the livelihood of the two places!"
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said, "Several Your Majesty, just look at the smile on our King Qi's face, you know that he has already planned, don't you two understand?"
Liu Che and Li Shimin only came to the aftertaste, yes, when this wicked smile appeared on Ye Chen's face, someone must have been unlucky.
Cao Cao couldn't help but say, "What are you going to do, brother?"
"Let Yang Song come to see me tomorrow." Ye Chen said.
That night, everyone dispersed and rested. Seeing that in the early morning of the next day, Ye Chen sent someone to pass Yang Song to the handsome mansion.
As soon as he heard that Ye Chen was looking for him, Yang Song ran over, thinking about his own beauty.
"Yang Song, before you said you were interested in managing the livelihood of the two places, I thought about it and thought that what you said made sense." Ye Chen said with a smile. .
Chapter 341
Yang Song was overjoyed: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely live up to the heavy responsibility given by Your Highness."
"Don't worry, this is not so easy to do, since you want to manage the livelihood of the two places, you have to find a way to capture us.
On Liu Zhang's side in Xichuan, we plan to ask Pang Tong's military advisor to come forward and persuade him to surrender. This time, you will accompany you.By the way, do some business with Nishikawa. " Ye Chen said.
Yang Song hurriedly asked: "I don't know what business your Highness is talking about? As long as you can help me, I will never refuse."
Ye Chenen said: "Don't worry, it's a beautiful messenger. Xichuan Liu Zhang is greedy for money, lustful, and drunk like his life. You are responsible for helping us transport a batch of fine wine to Xichuan."
"As before, you can empty out Xichuan's grain and grass reserves!" Yang Song said.
"No, you can hollow out Zhang Lu because Zhang Lu has lost his territory and only has an isolated city left, but now Xichuan, more than [-] counties, you want to hollow out people? How much wine do you have to get over there.
Don't worry, this time, you don't have to do anything else, just transport the wine into Xichuan, put down the wine when you get there, and get the money back.
