The Best Fake Eunuch

"Lord Xiao, I can give you an iron ingot worth hundreds of thousands of catties... don't thank me in a hurry, it's not for nothing, you have to give me silver according to the market price, it's the market price, and one tael It cannot be less, otherwise this matter will be a failure!"

"Here you go, how much money is up to you Master Chen tells... I will give it now! The money is not ready-made." Xiao Chen carried it in his arms.

"However, you have to send me a batch of grain, which is the old grain you mentioned, and I want it now, right away! I can also convert this into silver and settle it for you, but you are old grain, so you can't follow the market price... ..." Chen Wenqi gave Xiao Chen what he wanted, so he must get what he wants.

"Small, Mr. Chen!" Xiao Chen laughed, "You underestimate my situation, how can I still ask you for money for these old sesame seeds and rotten grains? You can pay for the travel expenses, and I will pay for it immediately. Send someone eight hundred miles to rush back, and let them ship it to you immediately, can you ship it to Haining Bay?"

"Master Xiao, do you really mean what you say?" Chen Wenqi was overjoyed.

"But it's not much, I have to leave a little bit of preparation, right? But I see that Mr. Chen, you seem to be very anxious..." Xiao Chen pondered again.

"Hurry up!" Chen Wenqi yelled, "Hundreds of thousands of hungry people in Haining Bay and Minzhou County combined are anxiously waiting for food to save their lives. Human lives are at stake, Lord Xiao!"

"That's all right, I'll bring you thirty thousand shi! But let's agree, it's all old grain, and the dried meat is like an iron bar, you can't bite it without soaking it for three days..."

"How much?" Chen Wenqi stood up suddenly, walked up to Xiao Chen and bared his teeth at him.

Fuck you, Mr. Chen, are you trying to bite me? What's the matter?

"Thirty thousand shi grains, anyway, there are all sorts of miscellaneous things, dried meat, dried vegetables and dried fish are not counted. I will try my best to pretend for you when the time comes." Xiao Chen kept shrinking back, afraid that he would really bite it down. .

This guy's eyes are all red, it's really not clear.

Chen Wenqi immediately summoned his officials and asked them to immediately collect iron ingots, copper ingots, and lead sheets from various smelters... immediately send them to Yanyun County, and handle them quickly without any delay!

Xiao Chen immediately greeted a brother, you go back to Changshan Prefecture now, pass on my governor's order, and immediately bring over the grain that Mr. Chen needs.

Shipping to Haining Bay within 10 days, if there is a slight delay, quite a lot of people will be punished heavily, and no mercy will be given!

Both of them act vigorously and resolutely, without dragging their feet.

But after Chen Wenqi calmed down, he became suspicious again. The boy I rely on is willing to give me so much food so generously?

He kept saying that those old grains and dried meat were not edible... Could it be true that they couldn't eat it?

"Master Chen, I brought some old grains and dried meat with me when I came back. Of course, I didn't eat it, and I didn't give it to you. I wanted to show Ma Wuming Shangshu and his people from the Ministry of Industry. By the way, I would like to ask for advice. How did their big man build this granary? Why can it be preserved for so long..." Xiao Chen said this again.

Seeing that Chen Wenqi's eyes were round, he hurriedly called a brother, and quickly went back to bring it to me, and asked Mr. Chen to have a look!

Not long after, the brother came back with a bag, but there were several small bags inside.

They are filled with old rice, millet, sorghum, black beans, soybeans, dried meat, dried fish, dried vegetables, bread...

Chen Wenqi picked up a few grains of rice and put them into his mouth to chew a few times, then a smile appeared on his face, "Lord Xiao, you have helped me a lot."

"It's all for the imperial court, but it's not to help Mr. Chen. Our friendship is not so good." Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"Well, even so, I still accept your affection." Chen Wenqi said.

For a moment, he even really fell in love with Xiao Chen. This kid is not a thing, but he is really capable.

It is said that he can find the legendary thirteen warehouses of the big man?

Capable, smart enough, consider the overall situation, understand the military, understand the economy, be able to adapt to changes, and be able to persevere... Such a comprehensive talent is really rare!

No wonder the emperor has never been willing to kill him.

But Xiao Chen also has a big shortcoming, that is, he is unruly and extremely difficult to control.

This one shortcoming alone outweighs all his good points.

Fortunately, he had an incurable disease, and he only had three or two years to live, otherwise, no matter what, he would have to find a way to kill him...

Now, you might as well order him to let him use his spare time as much as possible before he dies.

"I also accept your kindness from Mr. Chen. These steels are too important to me. That's fine. Let's say goodbye." Xiao Chen didn't want to have any friendship with this Chen Wenqi, this person is too dark , I can't make it through.

"Stay for a light meal?" Chen Wenqi was rarely so polite to him.

"Forget it, I've heard for a long time that you, Mr. Chen, live a poor life, and I can't get used to the clear soup with little water. I'd better go to the palace and go to the emperor's place to eat the imperial meal." Xiao Chen raised his hand to say goodbye.

Chen Wenqi sent him all the way out of the gate of the household department, watched him get on his horse and left, and then went in with his hands behind his back in a complicated mood.

When Xiao Chen entered the palace to see Li Wanjiang, he wanted to ask him when he could go back? Now the things that should be done in Fengyang City are basically done, and it is almost time to leave.

There is another thing, that is to find a way to reject Li Wanjiang's kindness, and not let Shangguan Qiji go back with him. This guy has unknown motives and may have ulterior motives. It is not a good thing to have him by his side.

This guy might be a little spy that Li Wanjiang placed by his side.

It's fine if it's an ordinary person, but he is a disciple of the Shangguan family...

In the end, the emperor he wanted to see didn't see him, he said that he was too tired last night and didn't sleep well, he was catching up on sleep, if there is no important military matter, please don't bother.

The Shangguan Qiji who didn't want to see him saw him, he also came to see the emperor, just like Xiao Chen, he was turned away.

"What are you doing here?" When he saw Xiao Chen, he raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes.

"I came to see the emperor, what am I doing? I was thinking about Brother Shangguan, you are fat and inconvenient to walk, so I want to ask the emperor not to let you go with me to Yanyun County to suffer." Xiao Chen said.

"Huh? Is it the truth?" Shangguan Qiji was taken aback for a moment, "You kid has such a good heart?"

"It's always been there, but it will always be treated as a donkey's liver and lungs!" Xiao Chen was also slightly taken aback, what the hell? From Fatty's tone, it seems that he is not willing to go either.

"Didn't you beg the emperor to let me accompany you?" Shangguan Qiji squinted at Xiao Chen, half-believing.

"I thought it was because you cared about my little brother, that's why you wanted to follow me." Xiao Chen was very confused by the fat man.

What's the situation? This is it?

"I care about you, you bastard, and I have nothing to do with you... If you can really keep me, I won't bother with you about you bullying my elder sister Yunxiu, and let you live longer It's not impossible for a year or so." Shangguan Qiji said.

"It's a deal!" Xiao Chen gave him a high-five as an oath.

"A four-horse horse is hard to chase!" Shangguan Qiji said.
