The mining of these golds has consumed almost all of Guangyuan’s manpower and material resources! In fact, when Liang Chuan proposed to take the gold to buy food, everyone was worried that the gold was too valuable and there was no way to guarantee that there would be no accidents on the way!
Now, Liang Chuan's 'real' identity has been revealed. He is a native of Nong himself, and he is Anon's younger brother. There is no reason to defraud this piece of gold. To say the least, Liang Chuan has many ways to seize this piece of gold. , but Liang Chuan didn't take action. Once the chieftain became the chieftain, he didn't need to rely on Anon's identity. No matter how much gold he wanted, it would all be Liang Chuan's own!
Anon has already spoken. She will guard the cave by herself while Liang Chuan takes people to exchange for food! This plan was approved by everyone!
The food in the cave is really gone now. If we don't buy food anymore, everyone will die in the cave!
Liang Chuan and the hunting team set off immediately. The rouge horses were grazing in the mountains. The grass in winter was yellow and they lost a lot of fat.
Before leaving, Liang Chuan also put on his iron mask to cover his face, so as not to cause trouble to me with this Liang Chuan face!
He wanted to go to Mark. He must have a lot of resources at hand, but he left without saying goodbye and had no face to go to him anymore. After thinking about it for a while, he gave up this preparation.
You can't go to Yongzhou in the south and southeast. The Nanyue people in the south are sworn enemies. You can't buy food and they may be robbed!
Now I heard that a war is about to start in Yongzhou. It is even more chaotic and impossible to go there! The southwest is full of barren mountains and mountains. Except for the high mountains, it is impossible to grow food. It has not been a food transfer station since ancient times!
After thinking about it, I could only go north. If I could reach Shuchuan, that would be the best! Since the completion of Dujiangyan, it has been trouble-free for thousands of years. It has become an important place for hegemony and an important place for grain production!
The only trouble is that it is too far to go to Shuchuan, but I have to give it a try anyway! The group of people almost ran, racing against time, trying to buy back the food before they starved to death.
One day later, hunger may lead to death! Fortunately, for this group of people, it is common for them to sleep in the wild and travel on the road. In the past, in order to hunt, they had to go deep into the uninhabited mountains. They often would not go out of the mountains for ten days and a half, and they would eat, drink, and relieve themselves in the mountains. This kind of outdoor survival is very difficult. Little things are insignificant to them!
We drove more than a hundred miles in one day, heading north. Poor Guangnan doesn't even have a decent official road. The Song Dynasty never thought of building roads here. They are all small roads more than a foot wide. It is extremely difficult for two people to walk side by side!
Liang Chuan had a horse to ride on, and the others relied on their feet to walk such a long way alive! Finally reaching a boundary, Liang Chuan wanted to ask, but couldn't find anyone. He went straight into the city and found out that he had reached the boundary of Guanzhou!
Guanzhou belongs to the prefecture and county in the northern part of Guangnan. It is considered a place far away from right and wrong. The route taken by the South Vietnamese to attack the Song Dynasty is generally towards the northeast, where there are Yongzhou and various wealthy places on Guangnan East Road, and to the northwest Most of them are barren and backward places. The South Vietnamese will not waste their troops here at all. Even if they are defeated, just like Guangyuan Prefecture, they will not be able to get even a root of grass!
Guanzhou is also very poor, comparable to Guangyuan. Entering the city, Liangchuan found a restaurant to rest, and asked his men to ask if there was any rice sold in the city!
Liang Chuan not only brought the one hundred and twelve taels of nugget gold, but also a lot of gold sand. If there was food in the city, he would buy a batch back first to solve the urgent need. If not, he would go back. North, looking for bigger sellers!
There have been a lot more rice merchants in Guanzhou recently, and just as Liang Chuan expected, they are all shipped from Shuzhong or the Lianghu area in the north, and are ready to be shipped to Guangnan for sale.
Not only food, but also a large amount of military supplies, such as leather scraps, materials for horses, etc. Guanzhou used to be a very poor place, but with this east wind, it is now doing a great job in business. .
Liang Chuan was too lazy to look at the excitement outside. He took advantage of the time when everyone was buying food, found a haystack, hid in it and fell asleep!
It was not until Nong Lie kept shouting that he woke Liang Chuan up from his dream. 'Brother, we found the seller!
''Is the quantity large? Take me there! ''Big, he said he can sell as much as we want. If it's not enough, he can transfer it to other places!
''Beautiful, if this matter can be settled in Guanzhou, why should we go to Sichuan again! Liang Chuan followed Nong Lie to look for him. The further he walked, the worse he felt. He walked along remote and dark country roads, and finally arrived at the foot of a tidal and remote mountain.
Liang Chuan's eyes immediately glanced around and narrowed his eyes alertly. The person who contacted him was a little man with a deer head and rat eyes. Liang Chuan saw that this guy was not a business person!
But with dozens of people from the hunting team around, Liang Chuan is not afraid of this kid messing around! 'Where did you meet this kid?
''Just ask, he asked us to follow him! ''Why are you asking? Did you tell the truth about the gold?
Lao Mazi and the others were silent. Liang Chuan's heart dropped when he saw it, and he thought to himself, it's time to show off your wealth!
If you buy rice, you usually go to a rice store. How can anyone place a rice store at the foot of such a dark and humid mountain? It would be strange if all the food was not moldy!
'You guys look very unfamiliar, don't they look like we are from Guanzhou? ''What do you think? Liang Chuan said coldly.
'If not, I'll be relieved. My younger brother's name is Hou Shi. I heard that the elders want to buy food, so it's a good idea for you to come to us!
'If not, would you be relieved? What is this nonsense? When Hou Shi opened the warehouse door, he saw neatly stacked burlap bags as high as a mountain inside the warehouse!
This house is quite big. Although the location is much different, Liang Chuan did not expect that it would be filled with bags like this. Even if it is not food, even if it is sand, it will take a long time to fill it.
. Moreover, it appeared that they had just been piled up recently. There was no smell of dampness and mustiness in the entire warehouse. These bags were also very new, and there were some marks on them, with the word 'shun' written on them!
Hou Shi rubbed his hands in excitement at Liang Chuan and said, "How about it? The food here is enough for your requirements!"
'this. . Liang Chuanguang was willing to draw conclusions when he saw the bag! The bag is enough, but I’m afraid it’s really sand inside!
'Open the bag and let us inspect the goods! Hou Shi didn't mind the trouble and immediately opened one of the bags. He saw that it was full of yellow millet, like gold sand.
Liang Chuan grabbed a handful of millet, put it in front of his nose, smelled it, and crushed the millet hard. It was really rice. There was no such technology these days, only deception!
This big bag of millet is all fresh rice! I'm just afraid that the other bags are fake! 'Can you check the other rice bags?
''Of course I can test it! Hou Shi was so excited that he kept rubbing his hands. Now that he could get a large sum of money, how could he not be happy?
Liang Chuan pursed his lips towards the rice bag at the back and the bottom rice bag. Several people went over and quickly opened the bags and carefully inspected the millet inside!
Not long after, they came back to report one by one, and got a piece of news that shocked Liang Chuan. It turned out that all the millet was real, and the quality was quite good!
How can this be! Guanzhou has never been an important place for production, but it can actually store so much new rice, and this Hou Shi doesn't look like this rice seller.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster! 'How much food is there in here? This sentence stopped Hou Shi and said, "Uh."
. This is it. . possible. . perhaps. . Quite a lot! 'You don't even know how much food there is, so what kind of business are you doing?
Is this kid looking for his own happiness? I don’t know how much rice is in the jar at home, how can I cook it? Liang Chuan was very unhappy and even more suspicious. He began to worry about the origin of this batch of food!
'Then how will Boss Hou negotiate the price of rice? How much does a bucket of rice cost? ''Well, it's easy to say. Let's not talk about how much a bucket of rice costs. Look at this batch of rice. It weighs tens of thousands of kilograms at least. Just give the total!
'Everyone was dumbfounded. There are still people doing this kind of business. This is very happy! 'How can it be done? If you want to give it, you have to give me a number. After all, this thing belongs to you, Boss Hou!
If the price I offer here is too low, you will lose face! If your offer is too high, I'll give you a better price so that we won't end up harming each other!
When Hou Shi heard this, he nodded in agreement, looked at Liang Chuan a few times and said, "You are quite interesting, Nongzi. I have never seen you so good. Let's do this. Give me a hundred guan!"
We won’t say any more unnecessary words! Liang Chuan secretly made a small calculation in his mind. The current price of a bucket of rice is almost fifty yuan, and ten thousand kilograms is hundreds of dollars. After all, he has not suffered any loss!
The main reason is that this place is the closest to Guangyuan Prefecture. The proximity to water can save fire. Even if the price is higher, I have to bear the pain to buy it!
One hundred coins is one tael of gold, which is too cheap for today's Nong people! The price is pretty good!
'Boss Hou is a cheerful person, but I have one last request! Hou Shi frowned in displeasure and praised this Nongzi. Why is he so stupid and has so many things going on?
'Come on, tell me, I have other things to do! ''You have seen the manpower here. There are only about thirty people. There is no way to transport so much food home. I even asked the boss to hire a few people for me. When I arrived, I even paid the wages!
'Although this rice is good, Liang Chuan's biggest worry is that it is not this boy's rice. What if he sells other people's things, and then the real owner comes to the door, and he takes the rice and returns it to others?
Hou Shi almost jumped up when he heard this. He muttered a lot, which sounded like cursing and complaining, but Liang Chuan couldn't understand a word of it!
Hou Shi scolded this boy for being too smart, but he knew that if the food was not delivered today, Liang Chuan would never pay!
'You wait for me to find someone! '
