The demon world I designed
Chapter 213 The jealous Duke of Wei!
"Father, can that much food really be transported over there?"
In Beihai City in the north, Wei Guogong personally led a group of men to wait at the Beihai port, waiting for the food that was about to be shipped from the Jiangnan Grand Canal!
"How do I know?" The thick-browed Wei Guogong glared at his son: "I am with you every day, how can I know more than you?"
The eldest son of Wei Guogong suddenly smiled bitterly when he heard this. He actually knew that his father's knowledge was limited, but the matter was so bizarre that he subconsciously asked this question.
About half a year ago, someone inside the court used some unknown means to persuade the Kingdom of Ancient Panic to lay siege to the northern border. As a result, they were in a good situation and suffered an ultimate backstab. The rear area was almost lost. Although at that time, They reacted in time, defended Youyun, and drove the coalition forces from the Kingdom of Ancient Panic out of the northern border, but the losses were huge.
The largest granary was destroyed, and the grain that had just been cultivated was harvested. The army had no food, especially the children of the blood family. The situation was reversed in an instant. They were pushed all the way to the north of the Hetao by the imperial army, and they were almost in danger. Can't stand it anymore.
It was at that time that many grain merchants suddenly appeared in the south!
The grains sold by those people were not only large in quantity, but also of extremely high quality. They had never heard of many types of grains, but the portion and taste they cooked were better than ordinary polished rice and white noodles.
Thinking of this, Wei Guogong took out a soft white pancake and started to chew it.
The pancake is made of a kind of soft rice. It not only tastes sweet, but is also extremely filling. An ordinary bloodline disciple, a warrior above the sixth grade, needs at least five kilograms of rice in one meal, and this is the amount that has not been steamed with water. But of the food produced in Jiangnan, only one-fifth of it was often needed to fill the soldiers' stomachs!
Not only does it take a long time, but even senior martial artists like them can clearly feel that these Jiangnan rice grains are extremely nourishing to the body. Every time they eat it and circulate their blood vessels, they can clearly feel that their bodies are nourished. It’s simply More useful than some high-end medicinal materials!
This kind of food flows into the north, which is already in a food shortage, and will naturally sell well.
Naturally, the people in the army did not dare to scare away the grain merchants, so they all lowered their faces and sat down for peace talks. Most of the grain merchants preferred to use things for things. They seemed to have little interest in gold and silver. Instead, they were interested in horses, large trees dried in the shade, and some fine iron. Ore is more interesting.
After several rounds of cooperation, the amount of food flowing from the south of the Yangtze River exceeded their imagination. In the next few months, the food problem of their army was stabilized!
It is precisely because of many cooperations that this larger negotiation has taken place!
The previous cooperation was with different grain merchants, and the cooperation model was also intermittent. Although there was a steady stream of cooperation, it was naturally unsafe for them who were at war.
So I discussed with several grain dealers to have a big one.
They in the north used 100,000 horses, several tons of wood and refined iron ore to exchange for food at once!
Faced with such a large deal, those grain merchants did not refuse. Less than half a month after returning, they actually sent a letter saying they agreed to the exchange. This confused several military leaders led by Wei Guogong.
Didn’t Jiangnan suffer a great disaster?
Where did so much food come from?
So with great confusion and excitement, Wei Guogong personally brought his army here to carry out the largest transaction so far!
"Father, a ship is coming."
A young general riding a dragon horse came galloping over from a distance. He dismounted in a hurry and said excitedly: "We are here as promised. Many ships have arrived!"
It doesn’t look like you’re fooling them!
Wei Guogong's eyes lit up, and he quickly waved his hands and said: "Everyone, follow up, don't be exposed at the dock, everyone is hidden!!"
"Father." The eldest son next to him suddenly smiled bitterly: "Do you really want to rob me?"
"Nonsense, if you don't rob me, are you going to trade it for the horse?" Wei Guogong sneered: "If those grain merchants can really bring so much grain, they must have a special grain channel. How can I let a few merchants control such a channel? With this kind of food route, we will have more confidence to reach the capital!"
"It has been a year since we started the army. We have no information about what is going on with His Majesty. We must speed up the progress. If it is slower, I am afraid of Your Majesty." Wei Guogong squinted his eyes and recalled in his mind the time he spent in the palace in the capital. The eyes he saw made him shudder immediately.
Your Majesty must be rescued, otherwise the monster may be something that no one in the world can cure!
"Father, look at those ships, something doesn't seem right!" The eldest son of Wei Guogong looked into the distance, suddenly frowned, and his face became a little solemn: "These ships don't look like the ships of the imperial court!"
When Wei Guogong heard this, he also looked over and was stunned for a moment.
"Oh my God, what a big boat!!"
He had also commanded naval battles before, and he was shocked when he looked at them. The huge ships were so tall that they felt like castles on the sea, which gave people a lot of visual pressure. Compared with them, the court Hei Yunfan looks like a little chicken!
And it's not just the boats, the metal pipes loaded on the boats look very dangerous.
"Father, look, there are soldiers on the deck."
"Yes." Wei Guogong nodded: "Grandma Te, let me tell you, if you can really provide so much food, how can you be an ordinary businessman?"
"These soldiers." The young son riding a horse next to him looked higher and said in surprise: "It seems."
"They are elites!" The elder brother next to him nodded solemnly.
The ship was several hundred meters away from the port, but they could all feel the vigorous vitality of the soldiers standing on the deck. In terms of momentum, they were probably a bit stronger than the elites they brought with them!
"Bang bang bang!"
Suddenly, several big men on the deck jumped into the air together, and jumped to the dock a few hundred meters away. The momentum was astonishing. The man in the lead was full of energy and blood like an oven. When he got closer, even Wei Guogong and others were moved.
Super first-class martial artist! !
"Your Excellency?" Princess Wei stepped forward to salute. Although she had a smile on her face, she secretly tensed her muscles and became vigilant.
The big man in front of him is not simple, he is full of pure energy, and his blood is extremely full. Such a young super first-grade martial artist is probably rare in the entire Jin Dynasty, and his eldest son is still a little bit interesting.
Although he is also of the first level, he is old after all, and in terms of vitality and blood, he is probably inferior to the man in front of him!
"I'm Xu Hu!" The big man said with a grin: "Accepting the order of the Lord, come and complete this transaction with Lord Wei Guogong!"
"Who is your master?" Wei Guogong looked at the other party and guessed his origin!
A super first-grade warrior, there are at least tens of thousands of bloodline disciples on board, and the quality is not low. I am afraid that all of them are sixth-grade or above, or even higher.
When did such a power exist in the sea?
Is it the proud country of the East China Sea?
But the direction the other party came from was obviously the West Sea. In his mind, the West Sea was just a small country!
As for what the other party calls Jiangnan...haha, do you think they are fools?
"It is not convenient to disclose the name of the Lord, but the Lord admires Duke Wei very much." Xu Hu said with a smile: "Now that I know that Duke Wei is in trouble, I have mobilized the whole people to prepare these grains."
As he spoke and clapped his hands, a figure in the distance suddenly threw a large bag of grain over.
The force of the throw was so great that it was thrown over several hundred meters away. Xu Hu turned around and caught it, causing the entire dock ground to shake!
Wei Guogong and others' hearts suddenly jumped, so powerful!
The short figure on the boat in the distance is not simple, he is probably a first-class martial artist!
With two super first-grade warriors and the elites on the ship, it would be difficult to capture these resources by force today!
"Your Excellency, please take a look." Xu Hu opened the grain bag and revealed the bright white rice grains inside: "This is the latest unearthed soft rice. Take a look at the quality!"
Wei Guogong heard this and grabbed a handful himself and rubbed it. The rice had a strong fragrance, the grains were full and crystal clear. Each grain was as big as a thumb. The quality was indeed excellent!
He could feel it with his body. If these rice grains were cooked into rice porridge, one bowl would be enough to equal five ordinary bowls of dry rice.
"It's really good stuff." Wei Guogong rubbed the rice and looked at the other party. If the other party hadn't shown such strength that he couldn't be trifled with, he really wanted to arrest everyone and ask where the other party's production was!
Such good rice grain, judging from the way the other party takes it out, the output is probably not low!
This is simply the foundation of the country!
