Laifu led Wen San and others into a living room and left in a hurry.
"What's the situation? Why did you bring this person to your home?" In the side room, Zhu Baye asked the housekeeper Laifu with a tigerish face.
"This group of people has a big appetite, and the 50 yuan I gave him couldn't impress him at all." Laifu was a little helpless, 50 yuan was definitely not a small amount.
"What are they going to do?" Zhu Baye's fat face twitched.
This is 50 oceans. If the other party doesn't want it, isn't it going to cause a lot of bleeding?
"I don't know, they want to see you by name."
"No! A bunch of soldiers, what's there to see? So, when you serve them tea, take two small yellow croakers and send these people away." Zhu Baye doesn't want to take risks. He also knows how to be a soldier. It's not easy to mess with, it's better to use money to eliminate the disaster.
Zhu Baye has invested a lot of money this time, and the small yellow croakers are hard currency. If you take out two of them, the other party's appetite should be stopped, no matter how big it is.
After a while, Laifu personally brought the tea. On the tea tray were two yellow gold bars, which were very conspicuous.
"My lord, please accept it with your smile. If I haven't returned for a long time, I'm afraid it will waste your precious time." Laifu had already made it very obvious.
Just let Wen San take the money and leave.
Wen San just smiled slightly. If he had doubts before, now he was sure that Zhu Baye was definitely at home.
How dare a mere housekeeper, no matter how courageous he is, use the owner's yellow and white things? Without Zhu Baye's instructions, this would never be possible.
"Let Zhu Baye come out and see you. We don't want your money, we just need some food." Wen San said very loudly. If Zhu Baye was hiding nearby, he should be able to hear him.
"Want food?" Laifu was stunned for a moment and looked at Wen San several times in surprise.
Although food is expensive now, how much is it worth? Look at his soldiers, they are all full of energy and don't look like hungry soldiers who haven't eaten.
"I wonder how much food the official needs?" Laifu asked cautiously.
"Of course the more the merrier! You can't make the decision on this matter, so let's let Zhu Baye speak out." Wen San believed that Zhu Baye must still have a lot of food in his hands.
As a grain merchant, he must also know where his colleagues live and how much inventory they have. As long as we open the door from Zhu Baye, are we still afraid that we won't be able to get food?
Laifu showed a very ugly expression and finally left. When leaving, he took back two small yellow croakers.
After a while, Zhu Baye finally appeared.
When he saw Wen San, Zhu Baye was very surprised because Wen San looked too young. However, his colonel's epaulettes are still very conspicuous.
Zhu Baye is certainly not an ignorant person, but such a young group leader is indeed very rare.
"Zhu went out on business and just came back. He delayed the commander's time. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Zhu Baye said with a smile on his face.
The businessman's way of doing things is indeed quite tactful.
"Let's get down to business. How much food do you still have on hand?" Wen San didn't bother to be polite to him, so he got straight to the point and went straight to the point.
"Sir, do you need a lot of food? I wonder which army you belong to?" Zhu Baye trembled for no reason. Judging from the tone of Wen San's words, it wasn't three to five hundred kilograms of food that could send him away.
Now that the price of food has skyrocketed, hoarding it without selling it is a huge fortune.
"Of course it's the troops under Commander Tang. Now all the departments are short of food. I heard that Master Zhu Ba still has a lot of surplus food. Are you planning to leave it to the little devil by covering it up like this?"
Wen San directly moved Chief Tang out. If he is not allowed to take the blame for this matter, who will take the blame? Small people can't carry it, so it doesn't have much effect.
In order to force Zhu Baye, Wen San directly slapped a heavy hat on others. If you dare to push back and forth, then you have to think about the fundamental purpose of doing so.
Sure enough, as soon as Wen San said these words, Zhu Baye's face became very ugly. Beads of sweat appeared on his face.
"Sir, please don't joke around. The little devils do all kinds of evil. How can Mr. Zhu leave food to them?"
"Stop talking nonsense and take us to your granary. No matter how much food you leave, the little devils will rob you of it all when they come. Why not use it to support the revolutionary team? At least it will keep you safe." Wen San That’s all he said.
If Zhu Ba Ye is still ignorant, Wen San doesn't mind giving him a little profound lesson.
Some people really want money rather than their lives, and will not let go until death.
Zhu Baye also loves money, but compared with his own life, he still cherishes his life more. Wen San's attitude was tough, so he had no choice but to give in and took Wen San to his grain warehouse.
In fact, the granary is in the Zhu family's compound. When Wen San saw the neatly stacked rice, he felt a little excited.
Who said there was no food in the capital city? There are at least hundreds of stones of rice here. This is tens of thousands of kilograms of grain, how many people can it feed?
"Except for your own rations, I want all the rest. As a reward, I can make the decision and help your family get out of the city smoothly." Wen San was not polite at all.
If these grains are left in the Zhu family, there is a 100% chance that they will eventually fall into the hands of the little devil.
A smile that was much uglier than crying appeared on Zhu Baye's face. These rice are all money, and the big yellow croaker can be exchanged for a small pile.
He was extremely reluctant to give up. If it weren't for these grains, he would have run away with the gold and silver.
Now, without running out, the food in hand will change hands.
"In this situation, can we still leave the city smoothly?" Zhu Baye could only settle for the next best thing.
"Of course, it's better to do this sooner rather than later. The longer it is delayed, the greater the danger. It's best to make plans in advance, so as not to be blocked by the Japanese and it will be difficult to escape."
Wen San's words really didn't scare Zhu Baye. In a few days, the capital city would be completely occupied. The devil's hand of the little devil will reach out to every ordinary person in the capital city.
"If you can arrange for us to leave the city as soon as possible, I can introduce other grain merchants to you." Zhu Baye suddenly had an idea in his mind.
As the saying goes, peers are enemies. When it is time to carry something on your own, of course you have to bring along a few people to support you.
This is just like a gambler who loses and loses. He will definitely feel unhappy if he loses. If someone else loses more than him, his mood will immediately feel much better and balanced.
Zhu Baye's own food was taken away by Wen Sanlianguo, so he naturally wanted to let his competitors have the same taste.
When Wen San heard this, he felt happy.
Although Zhu Baye has a lot of food, if he opens a warehouse to store food, he really can't withstand the consumption. There are so many soldiers who need to eat, and there are also a lot of civilians, many of whom have no food at home. If they fled out of the city and had no food at all, many people would eventually starve to death in the cold and hungry wilderness.
For Wen San, the more food, the better.
