"You servant, huh, don't you know the rules?"
Zhuge Yu looked at Duolong who was questioning him in front of him, and found that he was just a servant who dared to yell at him. He sounded quite dissatisfied and asked Duolong's men.
"Why are you talking to Master Zhuge! Why don't you step back!"
Duolong's men saw Duolong trembling with anger, then looked at Zhuge Yu, and could only bite the bullet and say to him.
But the tone was not reproachful, but said in a calm tone.
After all, he was just a subordinate, and he was afraid that Duolong would go back and beat him.
Duolong, who was angry, glared at his subordinates, thought for a moment that the situation was not right, and quickly retreated to the back.
The subordinates were shocked when they saw Duolong's eyes, but they felt relieved when they saw Duolong standing behind.
"Master Zhuge, please tell me carefully what happened. This batch of food is very critical. If something goes wrong, even I cannot bear the responsibility."
The subordinate glanced at Duolong's eyes and asked Zhuge Yu in a bad tone.
"There are some problems with the food, and we can't give it to you for the time being."
Zhuge Yu was still gentle and unfazed. He didn't look anxious, but said to Duolong with a frown.
"What does Master Zhuge mean? Shouldn't you explain it to me more specifically? There is just a problem? What is the problem? Is there anything that your Zhuge family can't solve!"
As Duolong's capable subordinate and a native of the Ming Dynasty, he was finally taken under Duolong's command because he offended the powerful and the family was in trouble.
"Brother You, this matter involves a lot, and our Zhuge family can't afford to offend the people behind it. I hope you won't ask anymore!"
Zhuge Yu looked at You Hu across from him and said with some embarrassment.
"I don't believe anyone can make things difficult for the Zhuge family, unless the Zhuge family wants to withhold this batch of grain!"
Not to mention that Duolong didn't believe this excuse, even You Hu found it ridiculous.
"Then let me tell you that this batch of grain was withheld by Dingbei Marquis. If you have any objections, you can go to him and tell him that I am just delivering grain, and I will mediate to get it back. But if you continue This attitude is not easy for our Zhuge family to offend!"
Zhuge Yu was not happy anymore. Not being angry didn't mean she had no temper. She sat on the main seat and said to You Hu.
When You Hu saw Zhuge Yu acting like this, he looked at Duolong. After all, he was just a subordinate, and the specific matters had to be decided by his master.
"Master, please don't be angry yet."
Duolong felt that if he allowed You Hu to continue talking, he would not be able to gain any advantage in front of a businessman like Zhuge Yu, so he quickly comforted You Hu and sat down.
You Hu received the hint from Duolong's eyes and sat on the chair pretending to be angry.
"We are also entrusted this time, and the financial sponsor behind it is not easy to mess with. We handed this matter over to the Zhuge family for transportation, which shows that we trust the Zhuge family. Now that the food has been withheld, if the Zhuge family If you can’t get it back, won’t you destroy your own sign?”
Duolong stopped Zhuge Yu with just a few words. Zhuge Yu didn't expect that the servant next to You Hu was really difficult to deal with.
"That's for sure. I'm sending people to Dingbeihou's Mansion to negotiate, but Dingbeihou, eh!"
Zhuge Yu had already thought of a countermeasure, and spoke to Duolong and You Hu with a sad look on his face. He sighed mid-sentence but stopped talking.
"Master Zhuge, if you have anything to say, it doesn't matter. If you have any problems, please speak up and let's find a solution together."
No matter how smart Liang Duolong was, he never thought that anyone from the Zhuge family would be in contact with Hu Yunqing, the Marquis of Dingbei. Looking at Zhuge Yu's embarrassed look, he asked him anxiously.
I want to know why Hu Yunqing withheld this batch of grain. After all, this batch of grain is very confidential. No one knows that he is the buyer behind the scenes.
Even if Hu Yunqing plotted against him, he would not have thought of using this batch of grain.
"As soon as the food was seized, I went to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion and found our Hu Yunqing. Unexpectedly, the Dingbei Marquis was unreasonable and said that the army outside the city was short of food and grass. This batch of food was temporarily requisitioned. After the final victory over Jiannu, our Zhuge family will definitely be rewarded for our merits."
"What? They actually forcibly requisitioned our food. Isn't this a royal law? Isn't this even a law?"
Duolong heard that Hu Yunqing was planning to use his own food to beat their slave builders, which made Duolong furious.
You Hu, who was sitting aside, was not very angry. After all, he was from the Ming Dynasty. Although he worked under Duolong, it was just to repay his kindness. Hearing what Hu Yunqing did, he still felt a little funny.
After looking at the current situation, he still held back and continued to show his anger about this matter.
"Hey, Shopkeeper You, what do you want from this servant of yours? Do you think that I am a branch of the Zhuge family, so you can yell in front of me?"
A few words with Duolong would have given You Hu a lot of face, but he didn't expect that the latter would go further and dare to yell in front of him. He raised his hand and threw the tea cup on the table to the ground.
Just after the teacup fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and after making a noise, the guards of the Zhuge family also came to the lobby with sticks.
"Hey, hey, Master Zhuge, don't be angry, I don't know the rules."
You Hu was sitting in a daze, but unexpectedly the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Seeing the guards rushing in, he quickly stood up with a smile and said to Zhuge Yu with his hands in his hands.
"Humph, I'm telling you, I can't control this batch of food. If you want it, just go to Dingbei Hou Mansion!"
I originally wanted to say it in a gentle manner, but I didn't expect that I would have to force myself to get angry. Thinking that the other party was still a slave builder, I felt even more annoyed.
"you!"
Duolong didn't expect Zhuge Yu to be so rude, and directly asked them to find Hu Yunqing. If Hu Yunqing was so easy to talk to, he would bother himself to get it, and pointed angrily at Zhuge Yu.
"Seeking death! Break his hand!"
Zhuge Yu saw that Duolong was still pointing at him and said to his guard.
"No, no, no, let's leave now. We still have to think of a solution on our own, but the sponsor behind me and I will remember this matter."
Seeing that Zhuge Yu was about to attack Duolong, You Hu didn't care about his identity and quickly stood in front of Duolong and said to Zhuge Yu anxiously.
"see a visitor out!"
Zhuge Yu saw that You Hu was so surprised that he was so protective of his servant, but without thinking much, he waved his hand and said to the guard.
"please!"
The guard at the door split in half, revealing a path and said loudly.
"You will regret this!"
