Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

Judging from their tone, it seems that they don't have much respect for the young master, but are full of contempt.

Wang Chen was sitting not far from them, and while explaining his work to the bandits around him, he listened to the whispers of the men in black.

It wasn't until yesterday when the fire broke out that he realized that the origin of these men in black was very complicated.

Some of them are locals from Jiangnan, some are from central Shu, and some are even from Guanzhong.

This kind of thing can be heard by the accent.

People from the Central Plains accounted for more than half, and the origins of the remaining alien races were quite complicated.

For example, the Mr. Hei played by Tai Ji's brother must be from the Japanese country.

These days, Wang Chen has also heard Tubo, Tianzhu, and some languages ​​​​that he can't understand at all.

I don't know how the boy surnamed Bai's father recruited these people.

These days, people who are not of my race have a deep-rooted notion that their hearts must be different. It is a contempt that penetrates into the bones.

Even if the Central Plains Dynasty was a beggar on the street, they looked down on princes and nobles of other races.

They are the only ones who can get along so well with the people of the Central Plains.

"Little Four, when are we going to leave?"

A man in black stood up and walked to Wang Chen's side, with a strong Guan Zhong accent.

Wang Chen accompanied him with a smile and said, "We can set off right away. I wonder if the big brothers are ready?"

There were only four or five men in black who followed him.

There is no doubt that they are all from the Central Plains.

"The young master only gave us two days, it's better to go as soon as possible."

Wang Chen cupped his fists and shouted to the people around him, "Brothers, let's go!"

According to the pre-arrangement, the 800 people were immediately dispersed, and they would enter through the four gates of Yuezhou City in the next day and a half.

Recently, the situation around Yuezhou City has been somewhat chaotic.

You know, although Ma Biao and the others only arrested less than 2 people, and the rest of them were almost dead, but these are just the strong laborers gathered in Dongting Lake.

There are also quite a few water thieves who lead their families, and their families simply follow them to live in the water village.

With the disintegration of the Dongting Lake water thief group, their families had no source of livelihood and had to enter Yuezhou City to seek a living.

This number is about 3 people.

There are seven or eight hundred people mixed in, but they are not so conspicuous.

Wang Chen was so excited that he was finally able to return to Yuezhou City swaggeringly, without having to hide anymore.

He had had enough these days.

Following him to the east gate of Yuezhou City, apart from the two water thieves, there was also a man in black.

Wang Chen knew very well that this man in black was spying on him. Even if the boy surnamed Bai was completely at ease with him, these men in black still had doubts.

"My lord, we are from Xiangyin. This year, our family is short of food. The folks we brought along will buy some. Otherwise, the people in the village will starve."

Wang Chen was close to the soldiers guarding the city.

The two water thieves were nervous, looking left and right.

It seems that they are afraid that others will not know where they come from.

The man in black followed Wang Chen all the time with an indifferent expression on his face.

Of course, the soldiers defending the city had already received orders from above.

Since the superior asked them to be lenient, they were happy to be lazy.

"Go in, don't disturb me basking in the sun!"

Wang Chen smiled and cupped his hands.

The man in black behind him was taken aback.

"I didn't expect the guards in Yuezhou City to be so lax"

Wang Chen looked around and saw no one around, lowered his voice and said: "You are from Muzhou, I don't know the situation in our Yuezhou, it has been like this all these years, and the people in the government just pretend to be It looks reliable on the surface, but everyone knows the dirty things they do in private."

The man in black looked thoughtful.

Judging by his expression, it's probably because of something on his mind.

Wang Chen didn't hold back any good water, and added fuel to the flames: "Actually, the water thief in Dongting Lake just ate one. It's a big loss of bad luck. If we green forest heroes can unite, it won't take long. Yuezhou City!"

Chapter 1713 I've Been Going Crazy Recently

Looking at the thoughtful man in black, Wang Chen remained calm on the surface, shrugging his shoulders.

He didn't place any hope that he could fool them into attacking Yuezhou City with just a few words.

If there are dates but no dates, let’s take a shot first, what if it can have a miraculous effect?

As a water thief from Yaziwu, it stands to reason that he should know Yuezhou City quite well.

It's a pity that Wang Chen only lived in Yuezhou City for a month or so, and most of the time, he was in the army camp, and he had no chance to go to the city to hang out.

"Grain Store, Grain Store"

He scoured the streets.

Finally found a grain store in a small alley.

The main reason is that there is an inconspicuous willow leaf-shaped sign at the entrance of the grain store.

After entering the door, he shouted loudly: "The shopkeeper, come out to pick up the customers!"

Those who didn't know thought he had come to a brothel.

The shopkeeper with the moustache came rushing over and cupped his hands at Wang Chen in a pretentious manner.

After seeing the vulgar face of the shopkeeper, Wang Chen's eyes widened, and he subconsciously took a few steps back.

Accidentally, it bumped into the man in black.

"Little Four, what's wrong with you?"

The man in black frowned.

This sentence came from Wang Chen, but his eyes kept looking at the shopkeeper.

No matter how you look at it, you feel awkward!

The shopkeeper is too young, right?

Although he has two mustaches, he looks about 20 years old at most.

No matter where it is, the person who runs the grain store must have the highest status among the local merchants.

In any era, food is the most important material.

Its importance far exceeds that of ironware.

Without an official background, who would have the guts to open a grain store?

In everyone's perception, the shopkeeper of Kailiang Store must be mature and prudent.

Because they have to deal with various forces.

Collecting and transporting food requires a good management of interpersonal relationships.

In a chaotic place like Yuezhou, water thieves and mountain thieves came to the city to rob every three days.

Those who open grain stores must bear the brunt.

Therefore, anyone who opened a grain store must either have an official background, or have a close relationship with water pirates or mountain thieves.

Otherwise, they will be the fastest to die in Yuezhou City.

How can a boy in his 20s be so mature and prudent?

Moreover, the man in black looked at the two mustaches, how they looked like they were pasted on, showing a strange energy.

Wang Chen's mouth opened wide, and he didn't recover from it for a long time.

He was stunned to discover that the shopkeeper of this grain shop was actually Li Ke?

I wanted to ask Li Ke why he came here, but he didn't dare.

Wang Chen pursed his lips, pretending to be a philistine.

"Boss, can you make up two hundred shi of grain?"

Before the shopkeeper replied, the man in black frowned even more.

Two hundred stone?

There were only four of them in total.

Even if everyone comes to move, two hundred shi is enough for them to move several times.

After buying, how to ship out?

One stone is 120 catties, two hundred stones is a full twenty-four thousand catties!

The man in black didn't ask the question directly, but planned to see Wang Chen's performance, maybe he had something good to do.

The shopkeeper rubbed his hands together excitedly.

"It turned out to be a big customer, please come in quickly, please come in quickly, there is good tea here!".

The shopkeeper enthusiastically invited the two of them in, and the remaining two, who looked like thieves at first sight, were ignored at all.

Life is like a play, and the emphasis is on acting skills.

Li Ke and his group have been rolling in the world of mortals for many years, and each of them has honed their acting skills to perfection.

He vividly interpreted the shrewdness of merchants in the market.

The fragrant hot tea was served, and Li Ke put the ledger in front of Wang Chen.

"Guest officer, please take a look. The grain shop below has always had a good reputation. It is absolutely innocent. On this account, there are a total of two hundred shi of grain. It was reserved by the Yuezhou government a few days ago. If you If you want it, give it the next ten days, and it will definitely arrive!"

Wang Chen followed his words and continued to act.

"Ten days"

He showed a troubled expression.

The man in black raised his ass and was about to leave.

The Yuezhou government is not something they can afford.

Wait another ten days, and the day lily will be cold.

It's not that the food on the mountain is not enough, but because the credit is about to be robbed by others, he doesn't care about the young master, but the thousands of people on the mountain.

Now is a great time to formally establish your prestige.

Wang Chen hastily pulled him back and winked at him a few times.

"Shopkeeper, I'm not afraid of your jokes. Our village is not harvesting food this year, and the folks can't get rid of it. If we wait another ten days, hundreds of people will starve to death. You are showing kindness. Sell these grains to me first. Everyone knows what happened, so it doesn't matter if it's delayed for a few days."

Li Ke showed a look of embarrassment.

"The government has sent us a deposit. If we breach the contract, we will have to pay a lot of money. Secondly, my small grain store can't afford to offend the government."

Even the man in black recognized this sentence as soon as it was out of his mouth.

It's not that the manager of the grain store refuses to hand over the grain to them, but he tries every means to get some money out of their mouths.

Since it is something that money can do, it is not a problem.

What is lacking on the Mabu Mountain is food, and there has never been a shortage of gold and silver.

What's more, they also have support from Muzhou.

"If you say a reasonable number, we will give you everything! The folks in Zhuangzi are all waiting for help, we are not people who don't know good from bad!"

Wang Chen's chest is guaranteed.

Li Ke was overjoyed.
