Chapter 254 Meet Chen Shilang

After Chen Yi exchanged pleasantries with Xu Wenjie, he proposed to see the food prepared by Xu Wenjie.

Xu Wenjie took Chen Yi into his family's granary and said: "I have prepared two big warehouses one by one, one warehouse is prepared by Zhang's and I, and the other warehouse is for several other companies, all of which are from this year. Don't worry, Chen Shilang will not use rotten food to make good food."

Chen Yi looked at the neatly arranged grain in the warehouse and was very satisfied.

Xu Wenjie pointed to a pile of bags at the door of the granary and said.

"Shilang Chen, it seemed that we needed seeds at the border last time. This time I also prepared people together. I just didn't think of the herbs, but don't worry, they will be collected soon."

Chen Yi was very satisfied that Xu Wenjie was able to do this when he was not here, and it was basically a donation.

He smiled and patted Xu Wenjie on the shoulder, and said with a sigh: "I didn't expect Boss Xu to be able to do this. He is a compassionate person with the world in his heart. I will tell His Majesty about this matter, but now Let's do the math."

Chen Yi stopped Xu Wenjie who wanted to say something.

"Your silver is also hard earned by yourself. If the court doesn't have silver, it won't pay attention to you in times of crisis. But now that I have brought silver here, I can't keep you from losing money. It will be a long-term business in the future."

Chen Yiyi pointed out something, Xu Wenjie understood it, and nodded with a smile, without further delay.

After looking at the granary, Chen Yi felt relieved. He didn't plan to stay here too much, so he asked about the preparation of the herbal medicine. Chen Yi planned to leave in the afternoon of the next day.

It's not too far from the border here. If you arrive earlier, Chen Yi can explain the matter a little earlier.

In the morning of the next day, Xu Wenjie settled all the bills for supplies, and Chen Yi asked Xu Wenjie to call all the other grain owners to pay the money and deliver the goods.

In fact, it was mainly to express my gratitude. This time I bought it at a price a little higher than the cost.

Chen Yi now has the money given by the second prince of Liao Kingdom, and wants to let these people earn some. After all, they may be needed again in the future. How can he really only focus on one sheep to harvest wool.

The owners of these grain stores did not expect to make a small profit back.

Although what Chen Yi did before was to ask them to donate some food, the plaques they got didn't belong to everyone.

This is the honor of the entire family and something that can protect future generations.

And those things will be able to earn back sooner or later, they will not suffer, and many merchants regret it.

At that time, there was no active donation to show favor, so after the news of the war on the border between Xuanluo and Dawu, many merchants became excited.

Donate some no matter how big or small, thinking about whether it can be the same as last time.

It's a pity that they were disappointed this time, and there was no such opportunity, and among these people, the most fortunate one was the Zhang family.

The Patriarch of the Zhang family is very proud of the food he donated when he saw him off before, and finally won a plaque for the Zhang family, which reminded Concubine Zhang in the palace of the Zhang family.

Some time ago, a letter from the palace said that there was a suitable daughter who could enter the palace to accompany Concubine Zhang.

What does it mean?
A daughter raised by a concubine can marry a merchant at will, which is to promote the status of the Zhang family.

So the head of the Zhang family also contributed a lot this time, and he also thanked Chen Yi very much for being very good at handling things, otherwise there would be nothing for their Zhang family last time.

Said that Chen Yi dared not refuse to ask for an order from the Zhang family?
It doesn't exist, their Zhang family is too far away from the imperial capital, apart from the old concubine who is thought to be in the deep palace, they don't have any promising descendants, Ding Duo is just an official position of magistrate.

It's not important at all, otherwise how would you become a famous merchant.

Besides, who is Chen Shilang?Even if the current Majesty doesn't give face, let alone a Zhang family who has no background to rely on, even if Chen Yi didn't mention this to the empress in the end, the Zhang family can only admit to eating Coptis chinensis.

But things didn't develop like this, the Zhang family was naturally very grateful to Chen Yi.

Chen Yi settled all the payments this time, neatly, and the banknotes he brought were of good use.

Further into Daoxiang City, there is no place like this where you can buy in large quantities. Chen Yi naturally does not limit himself and sells everything he can use. Anyway, there are many merchants here.

So when Chen Yi left Daoxiang City, of the 4000 million taels he brought with him, only 500 taels were left.

Chen Yi bid farewell to Daoxiang City and headed towards the western border.

Just like last time, he was on his way with all his strength. On the way, Fang Xuan explained some knowledge of pharmacology to Chen Yi, which made Chen Yi improve very quickly. Although he may not be good at treating people, the poison part he wanted to learn was part of the research. Seven seven eight eight.

When they arrived at Guangliang City, the largest city on the western border, General Zhang and Tang Si and Tang Wu had already been waiting there early. When they saw Chen Yi and his team, General Zhang was the most excited.

General Zhang's name is Zhang Jinkang, and he was the general who escorted Chen Yi to pay the army on the western border.

He is the deputy general of Guangliang City, and the coach is General Zhao Zixi. Chen Yi estimated that he should be unable to leave the army.

Chen Yi never expected that General Zhang would come to pick him up in person. General Zhang rode a horse from afar, and after arriving, a beautiful pony came to Chen Yi.

Chen Yi had also dismounted at this time, and stretched out his hand towards General Zhang with a smile, and the palms of the two hit in midair.

Then the two looked at each other and laughed. General Zhang patted Chen Yi on the shoulder with a magic hand.

"Chen Shilang, let's meet again. I didn't expect it to be so fast. The thing you left last time saved all of our lives. If it weren't for the extraordinary power you gave, we might not be able to resist it."

General Zhang said while sighing.

"And this time, the herbs you sent were very timely, otherwise many soldiers would have died. At that time, all the herbs we had were used up, and these soldiers could only endure and wait for death. It was you who saved them. them."

Chen Yi was a little ashamed after hearing this, and said directly.

"I don't dare to take these words seriously. I just came here now and I am already very ashamed. How can you say that I saved them? I can only say that God is not willing to part with our soldiers. I admire them for being good men!"

Just at this time, several soldiers following General Zhang also came up to him, and just heard Chen Yi's words.

The few of them immediately blushed, with gratitude and admiration welling up.

And from behind these people, a few people walked up, came directly in front of Chen Yi, and knelt down on one knee to salute.

"Chen Shilang, meet Chen Shilang!"

"Meet Chen Shilang!"

Chen Yi looked at these soldiers, his eyes lit up.
