This loud and clear "good brother-in-law" almost made some people in the county government hall go dark-eyed and send him away directly.
Even Ouyang Rong almost failed.
But the most embarrassing person on the scene should be a certain noble lady of the Xie family hiding in the back hall.
As for Wang Caozhi himself, his old face did not turn red at all. Ouyang Rong even spat tea mist on his face. He silently raised his hand to wipe his face. His eyes were still affectionate. After calling out the word "brother-in-law", the words became more and more smooth.
Originally, Ouyang Rong also arranged a "part" for Xie Lingjiang in this lobby scene where officials are kind and people are filial. This was something he had promised before, and he would take her to play with him.
So at the end of the lobby scene, a certain female master will come out and shout a few deafening lines. If necessary, she can even denounce the senior brother as a dog official who protects profiteers... Then another tug.
But at the moment, this unexpected "brother-in-law" made a certain woman in the back hall feel so embarrassed that she didn't dare to show her head.
Wang Caozhi is shameless, but she is thin-skinned and wants to be shameless.
It's strange to think about it. The jealous female master actually had an affair with the dog official who was shielding the profiteers. In front of people, she scolded her with a face of holy light. What happened behind the scenes? I can't even imagine the scene...
Anyway, this "brother-in-law" slightly disrupted the plan, but Ouyang Rong and Yan Liulang adapted to the situation, quickly finished the lobby scene, roughly discussed the grain inspection plan, and invited the group of large and small grain merchants who looked happy and worried out.
Watching Yan Liulang take everyone out, the young magistrate lowered his head and patted his sleeves, chuckled, turned and walked to the back hall, opened the door, and saw the figure of his junior sister sitting sideways on the railing under the funnel-shaped patio of the back house, and raised his eyebrows Feed the fish by lightly sprinkling it with your hands.
Xie Lingjiang looked as usual.
Ouyang Rong approached.
"No wonder your younger brother likes to eat sweet rice dumplings, it's like you've smeared your mouth with honey."
"what about me?"
"It looks salty, but it's actually sweet. It has a sharp mouth and a tofu heart."
Xie Lingjiang's mouth curved and he hid it again, "Senior brother, he doesn't look like he eats salty rice dumplings."
Ouyang Rong smiled and changed the topic.
"What should I say? Do you want to change the order and let your younger brother come first?"
"Because I called you brother-in-law?" Xie Lingjiang asked without looking back.
"No." Ouyang Rong shook his head, "Because whether you change it or not, the result will be the same."
Xie Lingjiang didn't squint his eyes, bit his lip and said, "Put him at the back."
"OK."
She sprinkled another handful of fish food and said calmly: "He shouted nonsense, don't take it too seriously."
"oh."
Perhaps because the senior brother responded too quickly and readily, the junior sister was speechless for a moment, and the atmosphere at the patio became cold for a while.
Ouyang Rong seemed not to notice anything wrong, turned around and waved his hand:
"Go back and eat." His movements were clean and tidy, and he didn't forget to remind him before going out: "You feed the fish, don't put too much in it and make the water dirty."
"..." Xie Lingjiang.
There was only one person left by the patio in the back hall. She turned around and looked at the empty lobby in shock.
After a while, the woman raised the fish feed box, as if she wanted to sprinkle it into the senior brother's fish pond. She stopped in the air, put down the fish feed box, and left with a stern face.
She has plenty to eat.
I won't touch him.
…
The order of checking food is out.
Shopkeepers Ma and Shopkeeper Li checked the grain stores at the same time, but the former was assigned more manpower. Wang Caozhi and other grain merchants were still queuing up behind.
In fact, the price of food in Longcheng is still very high at the moment. The embargo document coming from Jiangzhou on Dragon Boat Festival only made the price of food on the market drop a little.
Eighteen coins a dou.
Still a huge profit.
Obviously, foreign grain merchants are still trying their best to support the market, and many gentry and landlords are also waiting to see what happens.
In Longcheng County, the merchants who have stockpiles of grain in their hands have different mentality. Some are trying to gain time to escape, while others are looking forward to stable grain prices.
Therefore, Shopkeeper Ma is not in a hurry to leave Dragon City immediately, and he is not in a hurry to transport all the food he has stored.
The merchant's shrewdness made him want to get the customs clearance permit to transport grain first, transport part of the grain out of Longcheng first, and control the warehouse. If a collapse occurred soon, he would be the first to transport grain and run away, at least in front of a group of grain merchants. The loss in the business is minimal.
If grain prices remain stable and we can continue to harvest leeks, then it will be considered
How about transporting the grain back? Anyway, water transportation is convenient. As long as the door is not locked, Shopkeeper Ma's position can be as flexible as his moral compass.
As for the family favors behind the compliments and promises made by Shopkeeper Ma in front of the young county magistrate, they are actually just words for the occasion. They will be forgotten once they leave Longcheng. Whether they are done or not depends on the situation. They are also very flexible.
In fact, Shopkeeper Ma, as the white glove of the powerful, does not have that big a say. In this era, the status of merchants is not high, and they must rely on the powerful and use the tiger's skin to make a banner.
This afternoon, Shopkeeper Ma got another good news.
Yan Liulang and his men had already checked out his first granary at the dock, which contained about a thousand shi of grain.
Shopkeeper Ma learned from the county government that he could obtain a customs clearance certificate in advance and transport the cleared grain first.
Shopkeeper Ma's face was full of smiles. Under the expressionless gazes of his fellow grain merchants, he took over the customs clearance certificates for the two canal ships from the smiling Magistrate Ouyang.
After making another polite promise, the young county magistrate not only gave Shopkeeper Ma a gift, but also sent the county magistrate to accompany him to Penglangdu to help organize local porters and boatmen so that his grain could be transported to the boat as soon as possible. Tonight Can be driven away!
As expected, the Ouyang County Magistrate did what he said and did not hinder him at all. As long as the grain inventory was completed, the procedures from Longcheng County Office to Penglangdu were smooth.
Shopkeeper Ma was quite satisfied and had a good impression of the young county magistrate. However, he then thought that his food supply was originally innocent, and it was just a matter of the imperial court. The county magistrate should serve him like this, and he immediately felt at ease. few……
Penglangdu at sunset.
Shopkeeper Ma stood on the steps with his sleeves rolled up, smiling as he watched bags of grain being carried onto the ship by shirtless porters.
He was quite satisfied with the low labor force caused by the disaster in Longcheng, and he was able to save a fortune.
Although only one thousand shi of grain has been counted so far, it is not much compared to the total grain storage that Shopkeeper Ma still has in the grain storage warehouse at the dock. However, it is still fully loaded with two medium-sized tankers.
Seeing many fellow grain merchants watching silently nearby, Shopkeeper Ma walked over with a smile and said hello to Wang Caozhi and others. The latter smiled reluctantly and didn't even answer.
A group of grain merchants chatted for a few words, but now this small circle that once united to sell grain no longer had the familiarity and tacit understanding it had before, and it soon fell apart.
Shopkeeper Ma didn't care at all about this and suggested casually: "Would you like to have a dinner together later?"
At the moment, only the first batch of grain is being transported, and most of the grain is still in Longcheng. He will not leave with tonight's ship, and the price of grain in Longcheng has not dropped yet.
Wang Caozhi and other grain merchants looked at each other and made excuses.
Shopkeeper Ma smiled disapprovingly. At this time, a young steward ran over and said, "Sir, both boats are full, but it's time for dinner. Do you want to let the boatmen have a meal before leaving?"
Shopkeeper Ma made an angry face:
"What are you going to eat? Eat and eat with your workers, right? How can there be such a good thing? Let them sail away quickly and don't wait too long, otherwise they will only pay half of their wages!"
The steward nodded and bowed his head to urge the boat to leave.
Not long after, two watercrafts broke through the river water covered with orange-yellow sunset and slowly left the dock.
At this time, the setting sun also fell under the horizon at the end of the river, and night came quietly, covering the ancient ferry.
Shopkeeper Ma stood on a high platform on the shore and watched with narrowed eyes. When the other grain merchants saw the two canal boats that had successfully left, their expressions were complicated, and they sighed and prepared to leave.
Out of the corner of his eye, Shopkeeper Ma caught sight of his fellow grain merchants leaving. He put his hands on his sleeves and played a tune, then chased after them and called out to them.
"Brothers, wait for me."
Wang Caozhi and others turned around.
Shopkeeper Ma took their arms with a familiar look on his face and shook his head: "Hey, everyone, there is no need to be melancholy. In a few days, your grain will be inspected and shipped away..."
Wang Caozhi was suddenly startled and murmured: "Ma... Shopkeeper Ma."
Shopkeeper Ma, who had his back to the ferry, smiled and said, "What's wrong, but you want to have a drink with me again?"
"No...not...you...seem..."
"What am I?" Shopkeeper Ma touched his face and asked curiously.
However, he soon discovered that in the dim night, Wang Caozhi and several grain merchants around him were staring behind him with blank faces, and their eyes seemed to be filled with confusion.
Reflecting the red sun on the river.
Hey, isn't the sun setting? Why is there still sun?
Shopkeeper Ma turned back curiously.
Then, in the eyes of this tall, middle-aged grain merchant, two red suns also appeared... No, not two red suns, but two flames, dancing on the river under the night in the distance.
On the great river, two canal boats turned into fire ships.
Shopkeeper Ma was still stunned. Wang Caozhi, who had been watching for a while, opened his mouth and spat out the words: "It seems... you have run out of food."
"...???" Someone fell to the ground.
