False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

If the variable Lin Chen didn't appear, the food they had hoarded could be sold at sky-high prices!

Jiang Ziding heard the news and naturally got involved in this business.

When Jiang Ziding thought that his tens of thousands of taels of silver might be wasted, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

"Lin Chenjia, right? A small sixth-grade military officer dares to act like this!"

"Don't worry, I will go get the confiscated food right now!"

Hearing that Jiang Zi was determined to stand up for himself and others, all the wealthy businessmen present suddenly turned from worry to joy and started smiling happily.

"Master Marquis, if we can get these grains back, we are willing to offer an additional 10% every year!"

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Jiang Ziding saw that these wealthy businessmen were willing to pay, and his gloomy expression improved.

After seeing off these wealthy businessmen, Jiang Ziding was certainly not idle, calling his servants to change clothes.

"Prepare the car, I am going to visit Captain Gao of Yadian Yamen!"

at the same time.

Lin Chen was leading people to check the grain, which totaled 180,000 dan!

It seems that this group of grain merchants started hoarding grain as early as when the Gyeonggi Province was flooded, preparing to find a rare commodity.

It's a pity that before the sale started, Lin Chen grabbed all of them.

"These grains are just a drop in the bucket for hundreds of thousands of disaster victims." Lin Chen frowned slightly as he looked at the grains that had been stored in the warehouse.

If the supply is limited to a daily basis, it will be enough to meet the needs of the people in the capital, and part of it can be used to provide relief to the victims.

However.

This amount of food is not enough to delay the delivery of grain to Beijing in two months.

Not to mention, the number of victims outside the capital city is only a small part at the moment.

Suddenly, Lin Chen couldn't help but shake his head as he thought of something.

The grain merchants don't have enough grain, so don't they still have official warehouses?

The three major official warehouses in the capital are enough to feed millions of people for three months.

As long as part of the grain is allocated from these official warehouses for disaster relief, it is presumably enough to maintain the livelihood of the victims.

Just when Lin Chen was lost in thought, Wei Cheng walked in hurriedly.

"grown ups!"

"What's the matter?"

Lin Chen looked at Wei Cheng with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"The grain that was escorted into the warehouse was detained by the yamen of the palace yamen." After saying this, Wei Cheng couldn't help but bow his head in shame.

After all, he couldn't handle such a small thing well, which was a shame for Lin Chen's trust.

Unexpectedly, the expression on Lin Chen's face was very calm at this time, as if he had already guessed it.

As the saying goes, cutting off someone's wealth is like killing one's parents.

These 180,000 shi of grain are equivalent to hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!

Even if a grain merchant knows he has made a loss, he still has to find a way to recover the loss.

But this Yadian Yamen...

A thoughtful look flashed in Lin Chen's eyes.

…

"presumptuous!"

The yellow-faced man sitting high on the horse scolded Yang Zhi.

On the contrary, Yang Zhi grinned, without giving in at all, and asked at the top of his voice: "A certain family is the commander of the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities. Yang Zhi, you are only a ninth-grade Yuhou, how dare you ride on a horse to ask questions?!"

"Get off your horse yet!"

Yang Zhi's voice, mixed with some internal force, made the eardrums of everyone present hurt.

Especially the yellow-faced man, he didn't expect Yang Zhi to come like this.

Without checking, he found out.

Yu Hou was so distracted that he wanted to dismount from his horse and salute.

Unexpectedly.

A white-faced man grabbed his colleague's arm to bring him back to his senses.

"Lu Yuhou!"

After seeing who was helping, the yellow-faced man looked grateful.

If he really knelt down and saluted in the street, his face would be completely lost.

Not only would he lose his own face, but it would even make Lieutenant Gao look bad.

When Yang Zhi saw the fair-faced Yu Hou, his expression became a little more solemn.

The person who was called Lu Yuhou also had a strong aura and was on the threshold of a second-rate warrior.

"Who are you?"

"A certain family is Yu Hou, Lu Qian, who is under Captain Gao."

"Marquis Lu Yu, why did you, the palace guard, stop the carriage of our Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division?"

But Lu Qian shook his head and said, "Captain Gao has an order, and your troops from the five cities are randomly searching the shops. The Commander-in-Chief has sent a letter to Your Majesty to ask for your guilt!"

"Joke!" Yang Zhi heard this and sneered.

Lin Dutong acted according to the notices issued by the imperial envoys for disaster relief, so why did he randomly check them?

"Will you give way?" Yang Zhi clenched his spear, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.

The soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Department also put into attack posture, with overwhelming force.

The guards at the palace guarding the palace looked at each other in confusion, and before the fight started, their momentum had weakened by three points.

Lu Qian felt deeply troubled when he saw this.

He did not expect that the soldiers of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division would seem to have changed after the new capital commander took office.

In the past, the soldiers of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division were like the servants of the imperial government, a group of wastes that could not be reused.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the Captain Gao that Lu Qian was talking about arrived.

I saw that Lieutenant Gao was thin and had a neat beard under his face. He looked a little insecure and angry.

"Lieutenant!"

When Lu Qian saw the backbone, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped forward to salute.

Even the palace guards had the courage to do so. They all stared with wide eyes and acted fiercely.

Lieutenant Gao didn't even bother to look at Yang Zhi, a vulgar warrior, and waved his hand to seize the grain cart.

But don't want to.

The sound of horse hooves made Yang Zhi's face light up.

Lin Dutong is here!

Um?

Gao Qiu looked at the ghost-faced Dutong, glanced at it, and then snorted four words.

"Mysterious!"

Lin Chen was naturally also sizing up Captain Gao.

After all, the other party is a well-known figure even though he is not big or small.

If we just talk about appearance, Gao Qiu doesn't look like a treacherous minister who flatters his superiors and bullies his subordinates.

"Lieutenant Gao, I heard that you have a godson?" Lin Chen couldn't help but ask with interest.

Gao Qiu originally thought that Lin Chen would greet him and salute him when he saw him, and at least show his face.

How could I imagine that the first thing the other person said would be his godson.

"Lin Dutong, do you know my godson?"

"I think no one in this capital knows the name of Gao Yanei." There was an inexplicable meaning in Lin Chen's tone.

When Gao Qiu heard these words, he only thought they were mocking him.

Who doesn't know that Gao Yanei relied on Gao Qiu's power to bully men and dominate women in the capital, and his reputation spread far and wide?

Although there is no Song Huizong in this world, Gao Qiu didn't know how to get it, and got together with He Shen.

We are really not a family, we don’t enter the same family.

By virtue of the prestige of the monk's book, Gao Qiu, a fifth-rank official in the imperial government, was able to be honored as Taiwei.

"Yang Zhi." Lin Chen suddenly spoke.

"The humble position is here."

"First escort the grain carts into the warehouse. Anyone who dares to stop them will be arrested!"

Lin Chen said in a calm tone, completely ignoring Gao Qiu's face that was getting darker.

Although Gao Qiu was a senior official than Lin Chen, they were not in the same department, so Gao Qiu's official authority naturally could not overwhelm Lin Chen.

"Lin Chenjia, this is the order from the monk's book, asking you to release the grain shop owner and return the seized grain!"

Seeing that Lin Chen insisted on doing this, Gao Qiu had no choice but to use He Shen's name.

really.

How could this greedy He Shen miss a good opportunity to make money from the disaster?

When he checked the grain store, he and Shen suffered the most.

"Master?" Lin Chen pretended to be surprised and said, "This capital only takes orders from the imperial envoys for disaster relief."
