It's true that it's profitable, but Team Leader Xu doesn't do all kinds of business. If the risks he takes far outweigh the benefits, he will just stay away from it.

As a man in the dark, the business he handles is not known to the public, and Team Leader Xu knows how to protect himself.

"My dear nephew, I don't treat you as an outsider. Frankly speaking, this business is too risky."

Since the war between Daqi and the barbarians, there has been a shortage of food and grass on the market.

The government controls food prices strictly, and large-scale businesses must be reported to prevent the private sector from raising food prices and placing a burden on the people.

Another thing is that after autumn, when the barbarians are suffering from bitter cold and drought, if rice grains from Da Qi are delivered to the barbarians, it will provide the barbarians with support to attack Da Qi.

Leader Xu's various tricks almost revealed the identity of the group behind the scenes, which was inseparable from the barbarian.

"My dear nephew, if there is such a big fight, it would be easy to lose your head if something goes wrong. You might be accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason, implicating the nine tribes!"

Not being able to earn a large sum of money in front of him, Team Leader Xu sighed.

Xie Zhao listened silently and didn't take it seriously. He believed what Team Leader Xu said at most.

After Leader Xu vented his bitterness, Xie Zhao sighed and said, "That's such a pity."

"My aunt is interested in getting involved in the grain and grass business. If Leader Xu helps introduce me, I am willing to pay 2 taels of silver as hard-earned money..."

Xie Zhao casually probed, and Team Leader Xu's breath tightened.

Can you get 2 taels just for your referral?This is like a big pie falling from the sky!

Leader Xu's eyes showed confusion. After thinking for a long time, he patted his thigh and said, "Xiannephew, you are not an outsider. I asked you to call yourself uncle, so I know that I can tell you everything."

Mr. Mi hoards goods in his own name and can do large-scale transactions privately. If someone offers a high price, Team Leader Xu is of course greedy.

"Uncle, I went to Mr. Mi many times to talk to Mr. Mi. Unexpectedly, Mr. Mi was so stubborn that he guessed the identity of the buyer, left a lot of money without making any profit, and even called me a traitor!"

Leader Xu finally revealed the truth, and he felt aggrieved.

What I said before about being afraid of being punished was all bullshit. Anyone who was involved in black business would be carrying at least a few lives if they fished it out casually. Fear of the government was just an excuse.

"In Yongning Town, I still have some thin noodles. I will look for an opportunity to send you to Mi Mansion. I only need a few drink money, but even if I send you there, it will be useless!"

Talking about business with Master Mi was still rejected.

As Team Leader Xu spoke, he secretly observed the expressions of Xie Zhao and Jiang Yuzhu.

He sent someone to follow the couple all afternoon, but gained nothing.

A smart person will tell the truth immediately, which is why Team Leader Xu didn't immediately take advantage of the situation. He couldn't figure out the plot now, and even suspected that the two men had set off smoke bombs and did not have any banknotes in their hands.

"Or does the wise nephew have another way?"

Having dealt with Ms. Zhang for many years, Team Leader Xu understands Mr. Zhang’s greedy nature and is not likely to trust others easily.

Facing the suspicion in Leader Xu's eyes, Xie Zhao looked at him calmly, with a calm smile on his lips: "Uncle Xu, there is a big business, why don't you and I work together to do it?"

Xie Zhao took the initiative to make it clear that this business had nothing to do with Aunt Zhang.

"You are responsible for introducing Mr. Mi, and I am responsible for persuading. First, buy the grain and grass from Mr. Mi, and then resell it at a high price. I only need your help in contacting the big customer behind it, how about it?"

If things don't work out, Team Leader Xu will have to pay 2 taels of silver for his hard work.

If it succeeds, the profit will be split between the two of them, and Team Leader Xu only needs to run the errands without having to pay a copper plate in advance.

In this business, Team Leader Xu will gain profits and not lose any money.

After many years of doing business, Leader Xu has never done this kind of business where he does not suffer losses but only takes advantage. He asked dubiously: "My nephew, are you serious?"

Xie Zhao did not answer, but took out the banknote borrowed from his wife, 2 taels.

The bank note was originally used to purchase grain and grass, but now to gain trust, it was given to Team Leader Xu.

"Really, seriously!"

Leader Xu asked and answered his own questions and was overjoyed while holding the banknote.

Play the long game to catch big fish, cooperate first, fatten up the fish and then kill them for meat!

Jiang Yuzhu stared at the banknotes that were sent out, and her heart was bleeding. She took a deep breath to comfort herself, reluctant to let the child catch the wolf!

Xie Zhao suddenly acted out of common sense, but Jiang Yuzhu did not panic.

The husband and wife are of the same mind, and their tacit understanding tells her that Xie Zhao is going to make another big move.

The original plan was to lure Team Leader Xu and the people from Longhushan into buying Master Mi's grain and grass at a low price, but now there are more barbarians who are trying to buy grain and grass at a high price.

"Uncle, it's up to you to help with this matter."

Xie Zhao saluted, stretched out a hand, and said without changing his expression, "I can guarantee that when the matter is completed, there will be at least this amount."

Leader Xu stared blankly, and finally said with excitement: "Five...5 taels?"

"No, 50 taels."

Xie Zhao's words were very light, but they were full of convincing power.

Facing Xie Zhao's bragging, Jiang Yuzhu quickly lowered her head. She couldn't control her expression and just wanted to roll her eyes.

50 taels, boasting about Haikou, this is bragging to the sky!

This number was so exaggerated that Jiang Yuzhu even worried that it was too much and would arouse the suspicion of Team Leader Xu. Unexpectedly, Team Leader Xu was silent for a long time and said: "Xiannie, my uncle will take you to Mi Mansion later. As long as Mr. Mi agrees to sell grain, we will Contact the buyer immediately!”

"only……"

Xie Zhao showed some doubts and decided to tell the truth frankly, "Uncle, my aunt sent my nephew to Longhu Mountain to do business. This amount of money will be used to do the grain and grass business with Mr. Mi first. I'm afraid there will be a delay for a few days in Longhu Mountain."

Xie Zhao took the initiative to hand over the excuse. He used the name of Aunt Zhang, but in fact he made his own decisions and acted behind Aunt Zhang's back.

A dark glint flashed in the eyes of Team Leader Xu. He smiled and patted Xie Zhao on the shoulder and said, "My dear nephew, you are decisive in doing things at a young age, and you will have a bright future!"

The two looked at each other, tacitly.

Jiang Yuzhu understood this look again.

Xie Zhao hinted that Leader Xu would help ease the situation, but that was not what Leader Xu had in mind.

The barbarians are in short supply of food and grass, so they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy it, but they do not dare to use tricks to get food, but they do not need to be less polite to those who engage in other businesses.

Longhushan has just robbed a batch of treasures and is about to transport them to the black market. If the news is released, if the barbarian is tempted to rely on robbery to regain blood, he will be fishing in troubled waters.

Once both Longhushan and Barbarian are defeated, and then kill the extra squad leader Xu, the food, grass, treasures, and money will all belong to Xie Zhao.

The more Jiang Yuzhu thought about it, the more frightened she became. Her husband had such a big appetite!

Under the recommendation of Team Leader Xu, Xie Zhao and Jiang Yuzhu went straight to Mi Mansion.

When there was no one around, Jiang Yuzhu asked bluntly: "Is that what I mean?"

"Madam understands me."

Xie Zhao did have this plan, to make amends by eating black money, and stewed it in a spoonful to leave more private money for his wife, and at the same time returned the 20 taels of silver that his father-in-law Jiang Fulu had dug out.

While they were talking, the couple had already entered the gate of Mi's house, and Jiang Yuzhu was led into Mi Shulan's boudoir by the maid.

Jiang Yuzhu walked in slowly and found Miss Mi wiping tears while staring at the portrait. However, the person in the portrait...
