C245 The Army Was in Danger

Cangnan Giant City, Buping House.

"Do you think they will buy it again?"

While Zhao Qianli was chatting, he was counting the banknotes on the table. His hands were almost cramping, but he was still enjoying it.

"I will. "

Chu Yun nodded and said, "They have invested too much. If they don't buy all our savings, they will never be able to make a name for themselves. The food they buy at a high price will also rot in their hands and eventually return to normal price. It is not worth a penny. So as long as they have money in their hands, they will definitely buy more.

But unfortunately, after buying this grain, most of their families and chambers of commerce probably won't be able to take out a single coin. . . "

"Don't underestimate those top powers of Daming Mansion. If they want money, they have plenty of ways to get it back. It all depends on whether they want to fight to the death with us or not. "

Zhao Qianli chuckled.

Chu Yun agreed with what he said. After all, as Crown Prince of Princess Qi Mansion, Zhao Qianli's understanding of these powers must be far greater than his. He said with a smile. "Then let's look forward to them buying it again. "

Zhao Qianli counted for a long time and finally counted all the banknotes on the table. Those were all banknotes from Tianxia Money Shop. Each banknote was worth a hundred thousand taels of silver. When put together, it would be like a mountain, totaling to three hundred million taels of silver.

"To be honest, ever since I was born, I have never been short of money. But. . . This is also my first time seeing so many banknotes. . . "

Zhao Qianli threw himself into the pile of banknotes with an exaggerated posture. He rubbed the banknotes with force twice, as if he was feeling the fragrance of the money. He said, "When I first decided to be a Buping House, I thought it was a squandering decision. I didn't expect it. . . I didn't expect it. . . "

As he spoke, Zhao Qianli looked at Chu Yun, who was sipping tea with a smile on his face. He suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Good brother, tell me about it. Where did you get these grains? I know I shouldn't have asked too much, but I can't help but feel curious in my heart. . . "

" Chunhua Prefecture. "

Chu Yun naturally trusted Zhao Qianli. He said, "Yang Jian is collecting food day and night over there. There is a special secret technique between us master and disciple. We can meet at any time even if we are thousands of miles apart. The food that came out of the granary was bought in Chunhua Prefecture. "

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Qianli's eyes immediately widened and said, "There is such a method?! Wait a moment. The price of food in Chunhua City should still be the same as before, right?"

"Yes, one tael of silver. Thirty-two catties of silver. There's a big discount on the quantity. One tael of silver can buy about thirty-five catties. " Chu Yun replied with a smile.

"Good boy. . . "

Zhao Qianli could not help but count his fingers and said, "Twenty million kilograms of grain and one tael of silver is 35 catties. It will cost more than five hundred thousand taels of silver in total. Those profiteers bought food from you. One catty of grain is 15 taels of silver, and they spent a total of thirty million taels of silver. Three hundred million taels of silver is five hundred thousand taels of silver. . .

Damn it, who is the profiteer!

Furthermore, if our grain is really going to be cut off, then the stockpile of grain in their hands can still be sold. But now, with Yang Jian's unlimited supply in Chunhua Prefecture, the food in Buping House can't be cut off. Unless they sell the food in their hands at the same price as us, they will all rot in our hands! "

"That's right, that's the reason. "

Chu Yun nodded and said: "So, they have no way out. Their only chance is to buy all the food in our hands, but we all know that is impossible. The more money they pay, the more we earn. . . "

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Qianli's lips curved to the back of his ear. He had thought that these profiteers wanted to make money from the disaster victims. It was simply a bad idea. He wished he could cut them into pieces one by one.

But now, Chu Yun's way of doing things was even scarier than cutting them into pieces.

It was not difficult for Zhao Qianli to imagine that those profiteers had used up all of their family's wealth and bought countless grains. Then, they waited for the Buping House to run out of food. In the end, the Buping House had been flourishing.

The taste of it made people want to laugh just thinking about it.

Thump, thump -

Someone knocked on the door, and Chu Yun called out to him.

After that, Soong Gufeng walked in with a serious expression on his face and said, Soong Gufeng. " Master, Vice Master, those people just came again and said that they want to buy twenty million kilograms of food. "

"Heh. "

Chu Yun's lips curved up and said, "Sure enough, they came again. But didn't I tell them to only buy 10 million kilograms of food today?"

Zhao Qianli smiled and looked at him and said, "Then, do you still agree?"

"You have all the money, right?"

Chu Yun asked.

Soong Gufeng nodded and said, "I brought all the money. Three hundred million taels of silver. It's not a small amount. "

"Alright, then agree. We'll supply them tomorrow. "

Chu Yun nodded his head.

As soon as he finished speaking, Soong Gufeng immediately nodded his head and left in a hurry to get things done.

The moment he went out, Soong Gufeng took a deep breath to calm himself down. Even though he had seen Chu Yun many times, every time he saw Chu Yun, he could not help feeling nervous in his heart.

Before meeting Chu Yun, he had only heard about the legend of Chu Yun. Whether it was killing Flood Dragons or cutting off mountains and rivers to prevent floods, they were all unimaginable existences. As an ordinary person, Soong Gufeng only knew how powerful Chu Yun was, but he didn't know how powerful Chu Yun was.

But now. . .

Through the sale of food, he understood.

In the warehouse that Chu Yun had specified, at a fixed time every day, there would be countless amounts of food appearing. Except for the first and second days, which were slightly less, there were millions of grains. Every day after that, the amount of food entering the warehouse was above ten million.

At the beginning, as the upper echelons of Buping House, Chu Yun decided to sell a large amount of grain. This news caused a lot of controversy in Buping House.

This was because everyone in the Buping House knew that they didn't bring much food from the Jinxia City. They only brought about four million kilograms of food. The daily relief efforts for the disaster victims were still tight. If they were to provide a large amount of food to others. . . Wouldn't that mean that they were going to run out of food soon?

Most of the young men who were recruited by Zhao Qianli and Xu Binglei back then were aware of the disaster in the Cangnan Domain and came here with a hot-blooded heart. Now, the higher ups of the Buping House were selling large quantities of food at a high price. This decision immediately made many people feel disheartened, thinking that the higher ups had fallen to the same level as those profiteers.

But. . .

It had only been a day. Before those young rookies could make any moves, a turning point had arrived.

The grains sold to the treacherous merchants were not from the various branches of Buping House, but from the outside world.

Furthermore, this food supply was not only for those that were sold, but also to the granaries in various places. This made everyone very confident.

Not only that, every day after that was the same. Early in the morning, a huge amount of grain was supplied. Excluding those that were sold, there was also a large amount of stored grain that could be used to replenish the granaries. Seeing that the amount of grain in the granaries was increasing, the people of the Buping House Branch naturally calmed down.

This period of turmoil happened to be the time when Soong Gufeng had just joined the Buping House. He had followed Zhao Qianli and experienced all kinds of things. His sense of belonging and worship towards the Buping House had naturally increased with each passing day, and it had played an important role in this. He was also the Deputy Tower Lord, Chu Yun. He was as respectful as a god.

No one knew how Chu Yun did it and how he could provide such a huge amount of food every day, but. . .

Chu Yun did it.

. . .

August 14th, the sun was shining brightly.

Under the hot sun, at the entrance of Qingshan Manor, Liu Hanshan, Sun Zhipeng, and Tang Chen were looking at the carriages that were slowly approaching.

Although the weather was hot, everyone's hearts were cold.

"Another 20 million kilograms of food, I took it out again. . . "

Tang Chen muttered in a low voice.

Sun Zhipeng's expression was extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He said, "Damn it, are they bottomless pits? Why is it that no matter how much money is stuffed in, they are not able to fill it?!"

The convoy drove up the mountain. This time, the family heads and guild leaders did not even have the interest to open their mouths to ask. They just stared indifferently at the managers who had returned from the mountain.

"Gudong. . . "

The managers swallowed a mouthful of saliva and felt the pressure. They also knew that their boss was looking forward to hearing a joyous answer from his mouth.

But. . .

It turned out that they would be disappointed.

"The people of Buping House still handed the food to us as usual. There was no change in the Porridge Providing Shack and the grain office. Everything was normal. "

As the managers' voice faded, all the important people present couldn't help but fall into silence once again.

After a long time, no one opened their mouths to ask if they still wanted to continue buying food.

Because this was a very difficult question to ask. The three hundred million taels of silver in the last wave had all been obtained by the various families after they had thought of some methods. If they still had to think of a way, That would be too much of a price.

And the most important thing was. . .

They had no idea that the Buping House was a bottomless pit. When would it be filled up?

It was too scary. It was so deep that no one could see the bottom.

"Hu. . . "

Sun Zhipeng took a deep breath. The look in his eyes became firm. Without saying a word, he walked down the mountain. He did not even check the food that his steward bought.

"Brother Sun, where are you going?"

Tang Chen noticed Sun Zhipeng's movement at the first moment and quickly asked.

"Let's go down the mountain and go to Buping House. "

Sun Zhipeng's face was cold as he said, "I want to see how much food they have left. How many times can they not put us in their eyes?"

Tang Chen turned his head and exchanged a glance with Liu Hanshan, the patriarch of the Liu Family. In the silent exchange of eyes, Sun Zhipeng had already walked away. He said, "Now, we need someone to explore the bottom of the Buping House. There's no need to say those polite words. I'll go!"

After saying that, Sun Zhipeng had already soared into the sky and flew towards the nearby giant city.

After he left, everyone on the scene looked at Sun Zhipeng's soaring figure. All of them were silent, but a trace of hope and anticipation still rose in their hearts.

Now, there was indeed a need for someone to explore the bottom of the Buping House and let them know how much more food the Buping House could take out.

They could buy it, but they also needed to know how much food they could sell in the Buping House. If this number was too terrifying, they would have to reconsider.

After all, the purchasing power of the disaster victims was limited.

In a situation where food was scarce, it was very easy for them to sell a small amount of food at a high price.

But if they had too much food in their hands, they still wanted to sell all of it at a high price. That would be a very strenuous task. Because there would always be people who would not be able to bear it. The promotion would reduce the price to push out all the stored food in their hands. At that time, if they wanted to stop them, it would be a very big hindrance.

Therefore, there was one thing that they needed to know now. It was how much food there was in Buping House.

Of course. . .

Even if he was going there personally, Sun Zhipeng wouldn't dare to act rashly.0

He only went to take a look. He would not take away a grain of rice, nor would he make any small movements.

Because once this kind of behavior was caught, the consequences would be incomparably serious, very, very serious. With Prince Cheng De's identity, even if he was killed and exiled by the Sun Family, it would still be a matter of a few words. He couldn't afford to take this risk.

After arriving outside the city, Sun Zhipeng landed on the ground. After changing his appearance, he arrived in the city and quietly approached the interior of Buping House.

As the chief of the Sun family, Sun Zhipeng's strength was not as great as a Region Lord, but at least he had already reached the Nirvana Stage.

In this huge city, the strongest expert was only at the Mountain Sea Stage. With his cultivation base, it would be very easy for him to sneak into the granary without alerting anyone.

Sure enough. . .

After arriving at Buping House, Sun Zhipeng had been observing them from the dark for a long time. When he saw the billowing smoke from the kitchen in Porridge Providing Shack, he didn't stop. After his eyes swept across the dirty victims, a look of disgust immediately emerged in his eyes.

After that, he saw a line of transport carriages that were guarded by many warriors of Buping House. From another direction, they came to Porridge Providing Shack to provide food for Porridge Providing Shack.

Sun Zhipeng's eyes lit up. He immediately concealed his aura and followed the convoy. He knew that the mission of this convoy was to come out of the granary and transport food to Porridge Providing Shack. Now that the food had been transported here, these people naturally had to return as well.

As long as he followed these people, he would naturally be able to find the granary that Buping House had set up in this huge city.

Sure enough. . .

After the grain transport convoy unloaded the food, they pushed the empty cart and left Porridge Providing Shack.

Sun Zhipeng immediately followed them. Every step they took made him incomparably nervous and expectant. When he finally saw the huge granary of Buping House, all his emotions immediately reached the peak and gathered.

"Hu -"

Sun Zhipeng took a deep breath and sneaked into the granary while no one was paying attention. For an expert like him, it was very easy to not alert anyone and not attract anyone's attention.

But. . .

He did not notice that the plants that covered almost every corner of the granary had changed as he sneaked in. They shook unnaturally.

Then, all the plants and vines began to surround the periphery of the granary slowly but secretly. Before long, they formed a spiderweb-like trap outside the granary, waiting for the prey to come out of the granary.

On the other side, Cangnan Giant City, Buping House.

Xiao Lee sensed the movement of the granary of White Dew City and immediately found Chu Yun to inform him of the situation.

"Someone snuck into the granary. His cultivation base is above Nirvana Stage?"

Chu Yun raised his eyebrows, and immediately realized what was going on. He said: "It seems like those tradesmen can no longer sit still. They are going to find out how much food we have left. "

Zhao Qianli asked from the side, "Are they really going to find out? What if he wants to cause trouble?"

"He won't. "

Chu Yun shook his head and said, "They only want money. They would not do such a risky thing. Once they were caught. . . They dare to attack the granary during the famine. No one would be able to protect them. . . It must be after today's food was handed over, they were not confident. So they came to find out our bottom line. "
