Chapter 46 Game Contest

Looking at the 5,000 taels of gold, Gongsun Xiong was so happy that he couldn't stop talking about it, which was comparable to his year-long transaction.

"Come on, give me a pound of food!"

Zhao Yun waved his hand, and the Xuanjia soldiers dressed by a hundred civilians began to carry food one after another, carrying bags of food onto the carriage.

It took two hours to empty the warehouse in the backyard of the grain shop, but it was only 3,000 stones in total.

Zhao Yunyangyang raised the proof in his hand and shouted: "According to the proof that was established, it should be five thousand stones, why should it only three thousand stones!"

Gongsun Xiong quickly smiled and said, "It will definitely be done within three days."

"If you can't see the remaining two thousand stones of grain in three days, what should you do then?"

In the face of Zhao Yun's doubts, Gongsun Xiong patted his chest and said, "You don't go and inquire. My Gongsun Xiong is a well-known person in Liaodong. How can I stump me if I just two thousand stones of food? Please be content with peace of mind. In three days, there will be a lot of you."

Zhao Yun refused to give in and said, "After that being said, there is no basis and no basis, so it's better to write down a loan agreement."

"you……"

Gongsun Xiong looked unhappy and was about to have an attack. Zhao Yun waved his right hand, and the servants who were loading food reached out to take them under the carriage.

Gongsun Xiong had sharp eyes and immediately found that there were weapons hidden under the carriage.

"What do you want to do? This is Liaodong!"

Zhao Yun didn't care and said with a smile: "Master Gongsun Family, I advise you not to be troubled. My master is from Luoyang. Not to mention you, a merchant, even if you are the prefect of Liaodong, you must be polite when you see my master."

From Luoyang?

Could it be Liu Ming, the owner of the world's number one housekeeper who has been popular recently?

Gongsun Xiong immediately became polite and bowed, "Do you dare to ask the owner of the family is the owner of the world's number one farm?"

Zhao Yun said seriously: "It's good to know!"

"In three days, if you can't see the remaining two thousand stones of food, then there will naturally be an official to investigate the matter."

Gongsun Xiong replied: "If I can't prepare all the food in three days, I'm willing to pay double compensation."

"good!"

At the moment, at Zhao Yun's strong request, Gongsun Xiong made another note, and Zhao Yun left happily.

At least on the way, Liu Yi sent someone to report to Zhao Yun and transported all the food outside the city.

In this way, in full view of everyone, three thousand stones of food were sent out of the city one after another, without realizing that there was something wrong with this matter.

Gongsun Xiong Mansion House.

Looking at the five boxes of gold, Gongsun Xiong's six-house wives and concubines bloomed, they all leaned on Gongsun Xiong with a pampering attitude, fearing that they would lose their favor.

Gongsun Xiongle couldn't stop talking, grabbed the eldest lady's (butt) and hugged the concubine's waist with his left hand, which was very comfortable.

Gongsun Xiong was thinking about going to the room to spend the night at night, but suddenly the old housekeeper hurriedly said, "Master, you have fallen asleep, something big happened."

"Huh!"

Gongsun Xiong stood up in surprise and shouted at the door: "Old Wang, the sky is already dark. If there is any big deal, I can't talk about it tomorrow."

"Master, something really happened, the city gate was closed."

"What?"

Gongsun Xiong opened the door in two steps in three steps, and asked in surprise: "What's going on? Why did the city gate be closed?"

Butler Wang took out a notice from his cuff, which said, "Because the Xianbei invaded the south, there was another famine in the city. In order to avoid a melee, the city will be closed for five days from now on. No one will be allowed to enter and exit. Those who violate the order will be executed for the crime of collusion with the enemy.

A flash of lightning struck down from Gongsun Xiong's forehead, buzzing.

After five days of the city lockdown, how can I prepare the remaining two thousand stones of food? This is not a life for me!

"Where is the convoy sent out to transport grain? Have you left the city gate?"

Butler Wang shook his head and sighed: "One of them was unable to go out."

"What?"

Gongsun Xiong was so shocked that he felt extremely heavy, what should he do?

After half an hour of rushing back and forth, Gongsun Xiong suddenly said, "You sent people to mingle among the chaotic people overnight, let them go to the prefect's mansion to cause trouble, and force the government to open the city gate."

"Master, this plan won't work!"

“Why?”

Mr. Wang explained: "Since the afternoon, the government has opened more than 50 porridge shops in the city. Not only do they donate porridge, but they also distributed ten kilograms of food per person. Now there are no refugees in the city."

how so!

Gongsun Xiong was disappointed. This famine was planned by himself. At least two thousand people in the city had no food to eat, and each person had ten kilograms of food was a considerable expense. Gongsun Xiong knew the truth and reality of the prefect treasury.

"I'll ask you, the carriage that transports food today will go to the prefect's house."

Butler Wang replied: "No, everyone is out of the city."

Gongsun Xiong had a headache, what should I do?

"Master, there are only two roads to go. Either let the government open the city gate and we go out to transport grain, or buy grain from other vendors."

Gongsun Xiong asked, "Is there any other way?"

"Master, do you want to betray the debt? It's rumored that the owner of the world's number one farm is the new disciple of Lord Huangfu Song, the Muslim of Jizhou. If this matter is a big deal, I'm afraid no one can help us."

Jizhou Mu Huangfu Song!

Gongsun Xiong felt a chill in his heart. He was just a merchant family and might be a figure in the Xiangping City area of ​​Liaodong. However, in front of these real gentry members, it was better to give him ten thousand courage and dare not anger Huangfu Song.

"Two thousand stones of grain are not a small amount. You can first explore the Zhao family and Zhou family's to see how much grain they have in their hands, and buy it for a thousand stones."

"In addition, the new county magistrate doesn't have a lot of food. Tomorrow, all the tenants in the mansion will dress up as refugees and get food. After repeated cycles, I don't believe that his food is endless. Once the food is short, he can send people to cause trouble and force the government to open the city gate."

Butler Wang bowed and said, "Master is so smart!"

...

The Prefect's House.

Liu Yi turned around and said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, tomorrow, in the name of the government, he will purchase grain from the outside world, with a stone of 15,000 yuan."

"Lord, in this way, will it be that Gongsun Xiong's last retreat will be cut off!"

Liu Yi laughed and said, "These unscrupulous businesses know how to raise prices. This time, I want Gongsun Xiong to suffer."

"promise!"

Zhao Yun was about to turn around and leave, but Liu Yi suddenly thought of something again and whispered to Zhao Yun, and then he was uneasy.

The next day, early in the morning, countless refugees gathered at the porridge shop, and lined up in a long queue.

"Everyone is quiet!"

The captain of the Xuanjia Army, who was in charge of the affairs, shouted loudly: "The prefect has an order to exchange labor for grain. All those who come to collect the grain will be recorded and will be allowed to be sent by the government at any time."
