Looking at Zhuge Yu's hypocritical smile, Duolong knew in his heart. The Zhuge family was really careful, why couldn't Hu Yunqing hand it over.
Now Duolong also understands that Zhuge Yu intends not to offend both sides and let them resolve it themselves.
"Then I won't give it away."
Hearing Duolong say this, Zhuge Yu felt relieved, so that if there were any problems with food in the future, it would have nothing to do with him.
In the afternoon, Duolong prepared a lot of things and took a carriage to the outside of Dingbeihou's mansion.
"Stop whoever comes!"
Han Kedi at the door looked at Duolong who got off the carriage. He thought that he was the one who had set a trap for him before, and he felt very angry. He deliberately waited until the person arrived in front of him, stopped him and said.
"Brother Han, it was my fault for what happened before. This is my apology. I hope you won't be offended."
Duolong heard that the voice sounded familiar, and then he looked up at the person in front of him and found that it was Han Kedi. Recalling what happened before, he smiled awkwardly, took out one of the gifts in his hand and handed it to Han Kedi and said .
"I'm asking you who you are? What's the purpose of coming to determine the Beihou Mansion?"
After Han Kedi handed over the things Duolong gave him to his men, he continued to block Duolong from the door and asked.
"I am the boss of Dingcuilou. My surname is Zhang. I had a batch of grain in the hands of the Marquis. I came here today to take it back."
Duolong had expected it, but he still endured it for the sake of food, and said to Han Kedi with his hands in hand.
"Wait, I'll report it now."
Han Kedi thought that it was almost done. If he went too far, he would not be able to bear the consequences if it delayed the adults' affairs.
After a while, Han Kedi returned to the door and took Duolong into the house.
"Boss Zhang, we left the brothel that day, but it's been a few days, why did you come to see me?"
Hu Yunqing watched Duolong walk in, pretending not to know anything, and looked at Duolong and asked knowingly.
"Sir, I partnered with others to buy a batch of grain and let the Zhuge family, a noble family in the south, transport it. We plan to use the road to transport it to the northern grasslands, and we can sell it for a big price."
Duolong looked at Hu Yunqing's look and knew that Hu Yunqing did it on purpose and was waiting for him to beg him.
But he still told him what happened with a smile on his face.
"Oh? This is a good deal. Can I join in?"
Listening to Duolong's words, Hu Yunqing also smiled in his heart. The grain was transported to the north for sale, but it would not pass through Shanhaiguan. Do you think you are stupid?
Without exposing Duolong's lie, he followed Duolong's words and asked him with curiosity.
"Of course there is no problem. With Dingbei Hou joining us, there will be no accidents with the food."
"Brother Zhang, why are you sighing? What's wrong? Tell me and see if I can help."
Hu Yunqing also heard that Duolong was nodding at him. As long as Duolong didn't say it himself, Hu Yunqing pretended not to understand and asked him.
"Just a few days ago, the person who delivered the goods to the Zhuge family, Zhuge Yu, told me that the Lord had withheld our food and said whoever bought it would come. I'm just here."
He almost made it clear, and Hu Yunqing didn't even bother to answer, so he could only tell the story.
"You should have told me earlier! You can send someone to get this batch of food right away. Just treat me as a friend of the people behind you. It is also to make up for the unpleasant things before."
"What do you mean, sir? I didn't quite understand?"
The last time he was at Dingcui Tower, Duolong knew that Hu Yunqing must have known his identity.
"Aren't you from outside the customs? I've already seen this."
Seeing that it was Duolong who asked questions knowingly this time, Hu Yunqing smiled and said to him.
"What do you want?"
Duolong took out a thin needle from his hair and held it in his hand. He watched the door vigilantly to prevent anyone from coming in and asked Hu Yunqing in a low voice.
"What do I want? Can't you see it? I want to cooperate with Huang Taiji. This batch of grain is my certificate of submission. I will send it out of the customs safely. You just need to find someone to take care of it."
Hu Yunqing saw Duolong's vigilance and thought that if he wanted to gain their trust again, it would be difficult for him to gain their trust. However, thinking of his plan, he decided to take the risk.
"Master Hu, don't you think what you said is a bit ridiculous?"
After listening to Hu Yunqing's words, Duolong directly judged that Hu Yunqing's purpose was to use himself to achieve his ulterior secrets again.
After learning the lesson from last time, Duolong no longer believed in Hu Yunqing's words.
"It's true this time. You can make any demands you have. The imperial court is gradually getting better now, and Chongzhen has also begun to kill the donkey. While I am still able, I will never let such a thing happen. , we must strike first to defeat the enemy.”
Duolong was a little shaken in his heart. He saw that what Hu Yunqing said was so true, and it didn't seem like he was talking. He thought about the Eunuch He he had met, and maybe Hu Yunqing really wanted to join Jiannu.
"It seems like you don't plan to cooperate anymore. I'm still useful now. I can find someone else to cooperate with me."
"this."
"No more!"
Hu Yunqing looked at Duolong without saying a word for a long time and said to him with a straight face.
"Yes, as long as Mr. Hu is really for our use, I will explain the situation to the Khan. This time, Mr. Hu will need help with the food."
When he heard that Hu Yunqing was about to see off the guests, he quickly stood up and said.
If he didn't cooperate with Hu Yunqing, that batch of grain would not be able to be transported out of Shanhaiguan, and Jiannu would definitely be defeated by then.
The top priority is still food. As for whether the food is poisonous, that is a matter for outsiders to consider.
"Okay, just ask your people to wait fifty miles outside the customs the day after tomorrow to pick it up. I'll have someone send it there."
Seeing that Duolong had compromised, Hu Yunqing quickly named a position and gave him uneasy instructions.
"Okay, then I will go back and wait for news. When the food matter is settled, I will come to visit you."
"Okay, I'll give it to you."
After achieving his goal, Hu Yunqing was also very happy, but he didn't show it and saw Duolong to the door.
The two exchanged polite greetings, and Duolong got into the carriage and left.
"Sir, why is this Duolong coming to you?"
The door has been replaced by Juan. Juan looked at Duolong's leaving carriage and learned from Hu Yunqing that Duolong was a slave builder. He didn't understand that the master knew the other party's identity and came out to see him off in person.
"I am happy that my goal has been achieved, cough, cough, cough."
Hu Yunqing looked at the direction the carriage was leaving with a smile and said to Juan next to him.
He glanced at the house opposite, gave Juan a look, and then returned to the house.
