Longevity: I want to enjoy wealth and honor in the world

He was still willing to give money because it was for the sake of his concubine Jin Jinyun. If he didn't give money, Jin Hongzhi would have no choice. First of all, Feng Tianzong was holding his criminal pigtails. Secondly, Feng Tianzong's strength could suppress all his thoughts of resistance.

"How much food are you going to buy, my good son-in-law? You also know that I don't have much food in my hands. After all, I have many people who eat with me. I hope my good son-in-law can understand my difficulties." Jin Hongzhi softened his attitude. In this land outside the customs, he has always kept his word, and he has not been so humble in many years.

Feng Tianzong nodded with satisfaction, this was a good attitude. "Don't worry, I don't want much. I only need enough food for 100,000 people for a year. Isn't this a high request?"

"How much? Isn't that high?" Feng Tianzong didn't know what one hundred thousand people's food and grass for a year meant. As an army commander, he knew very well about the calculation of food and grass. This was simply an astronomical figure.

In the past two years, due to natural and man-made disasters, grain harvests in various places have failed, and there is no surplus grain at all. They all rely on the old grain from the past. After two consecutive years of natural disasters, how much can be left? In addition, he also needs to support the rebels and provide them with food and fodder.

He simply has no way to come up with such a large sum of food now. Feng Tianzong's request was like killing him.

"Wonderful son-in-law, you are a high-ranking immortal master. Maybe you don't know much about food and grass. I can't get enough food for 100,000 people for a year. Even the military rations for the entire Jiemen Pass are not available to me. Produced so much food.

The rations for our Zhenyuan Army are shipped from the rear every month, and we only have three months' worth of food in stock. "Jin Hongzhi said respectfully.

"Why am I so mean? Why do I have to greet him? Wouldn't it be over if I just pretended not to know and let him pass?" Forget about the regret in Jin Hongzhi's heart.

Feng Tianzong also came here with the idea of ​​​​playing three poles with dates but without dates. It would be better if he had them, and there would be no loss if he didn't. It will be the same if he goes to the court at that time. The court has to give him face anyway.

Anyway, he didn't have a good impression of Jin Hongzhi, a cheap father-in-law, so he could get a deal.

"Let's do this. For Jin Yun's sake, I'll take half less, and you'll provide me with rations for 100,000 people for half a year." Feng Tianzong said very generously.

"My dear son-in-law, I can't afford half a year's worth of food!" Jin Hongzhi still wanted to cry about poverty.

"There is no need to discuss this matter. If your food reserves are not enough, use the Zhenyuan Army's military rations to make up for it." Feng Tianzong said sternly.

Jin Hongzhi gritted his teeth. He really wanted to activate the large formation in the city and lead the Zhenyuan Army's 100,000 troops to wipe out Feng Tianzong.

It's just that the cost of doing so is too high, and it may not succeed. If it doesn't succeed, his family will be ruined. Even if he succeeds, Zhenyuan Army will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and all his ambitions will be in vain.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that handing over food is not something unacceptable.

"Okay, virtuous son-in-law, since you are Jin Yun's husband, we are not outsiders. I will sell these grains to you." Jin Hongzhi said as if he doted on his daughter.

Feng Tianzong nodded with satisfaction. This was an unexpected gain: "I'll let Jin Yun talk to you about the price. Jin Yun is responsible for the trivial matters at home."

After saying this, Jin Hongzhi became even more angry: "Now why don't you say that Jin Jinyun is just a concubine and has no face with you?"

It's just that the situation is stronger than the person. No matter how angry he is, he has to hold it in.

Seeing how Jin Hongzhi was clearly furious, but still holding back and showing respect, Feng Tianzong's mood improved.

Evil people need to be punished by evil people.

"By the way, Commander Jin, I heard that if the iron wood from outside the pass is transported to the inside of the pass, does it have to pass through Jiemen Pass?" Feng Tianzong asked.

"Indeed, ironwood is hard enough and resistant to corrosion. It is a good material for building palaces. Coupled with the scarcity of the quantity, the price of ironwood can increase ten times when transported to the customs." Jin Hongzhi introduced. This matter could be known by casual inquiry, and he did not dare to lie to Feng Tianzong.

"Okay, from now on, I will intercept all the ironwood passing through the boundary gate. I will buy it at the price within the customs." Feng Tianzong said seriously.

To Feng Tianzong, Tiemu was a strategic resource, so it was natural to have as much as he could get.

"Xian son-in-law, you don't know something. Those who are able to trade outside the customs have backgrounds. If we intercept them all, we will offend many people. Even I can't afford to offend some people." Jin Hongzhi said almost pleadingly.

"Who said you offended someone? Just say that I, Liaoyuan City, bought it forcibly. I didn't waste their money and saved them from transporting thousands of miles. Why wouldn't they do it?

If they are still not convinced, whoever is not convinced should come to Liaoyuan City to find me. "Feng Tianzong said domineeringly.

"Who knows who you are? Will it be credited to my account by then?" Jin Hongzhi really wanted to shout these words, but he didn't have the courage yet.

"Xian son-in-law, this iron wood belongs to aristocratic families, dignitaries, and some immortal masters. Ordinary people cannot use these things. If you monopolize all these things, you will offend others." Jin Hongzhi said sincerely. persuaded.

"If you offend me, you will offend me, so what can I do? I have made up my mind." Feng Tianzong said nonchalantly.

Jin Hongzhi doesn't want to have anything to do with Feng Tianzong now. He can't see the benefit of this, but he might be dragged down. It's not just possible. He thinks that with Feng Tianzong's style of doing things, he will definitely offend a large number of people. If he has anything to do with him, he will definitely be dragged down.

He now just wants to send Feng Tianzong, the cheap son-in-law, and the money-loser Jin Jinyun away together.

"Also, I want to purchase monster bones. You can help me purchase them in the boundary gate. I have no shortage of money. You can give me a higher price. I ask for compulsory purchase." Feng Tianzong made another request.

"And?" Jin Hongzhi was about to go crazy, but he didn't dare to say it.

"My dear son-in-law, the Great Xia court has a special purchase department for monster materials. The court can't let us purchase them by force." Jin Hongzhi said helplessly.

When the strength is not enough, you must honestly abide by the rules of the strong. When the strength is sufficient, he is the strong who makes the rules.

Feng Tianzong feels that now, he has the strength to not abide by the rules.

"As for the imperial court, I will go to Wangdu this time to solve it. What you need to do now is to force me to buy it. Take as much as you can." Feng Tianzong said forcefully.

"By the way, you have to pay first."
