When the soldier brought up a knife, everyone's nerves immediately became tense.
The soldiers on the deck all half-drawn their sabers from their waists and stared at Ling Tong and the others nervously.
Ling Tong¡¯s mind was racing and he was quickly thinking of countermeasures, and his followers were all on guard.
The battle seems to be about to break out!
The military academy had just received Ling Tong¡¯s gold ingot. He didn¡¯t get angry immediately, but asked coldly: ¡°Boss, how do you explain this?¡±
Ling Tong was quick to think and immediately explained: "General, forgive me, as you said before, the river has not been peaceful recently.
¡°Whether it¡¯s the army or the water pirates, they are all beyond our ability to deal with.
It is not easy for a small businessman to do business thousands of miles away. The last time we encountered water thieves in Jiangxia, they robbed the entire ship of food and killed and injured many workers.
"So in order to protect myself, I put a knife on the boat. Please understand!" "
Ling Tong¡¯s brows were furrowed, and his face had an expression of bitterness and hatred. His words were sincere, which actually made him believe him a little.
The military academy took the knife from the soldier, looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but said: "Well, it's a good knife!"
Ling Tong quickly said: "Master Jun really has good taste. This is my family's treasured sword. If you like it, I will treat it as my filial piety to you."
The military academy held the knife and waved it in the air a few times. It was very smooth.
However, he was finally returned to Ling Tong.
"Since this sword is your family heirloom and a life-saving thing on the water, how can I take it from someone else?"
"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master!" Ling Tong immediately looked grateful and burst into tears.
"But" The man suddenly made a turn, which instantly made Ling Tong and others feel excited again.
"However, in today's world, business is not easy to do. How much is your rice worth?"
Hearing these words, Ling Tong felt relieved.
He quickly said: "The military master doesn't know something. The more war-torn times are, the more valuable rice is.
I shipped the rice to Jingzhou and sold it for 500 yuan per stone, but the supply exceeded the demand. No, originally three ships were fully loaded, but now there is only one ship left. "
When the military academy heard this, his eyes finally lit up.
Although the price of five hundred yuan per stone for rice is indeed the previous market price, it also depends on time.
??Especially now that there is war, people are fleeing in all directions, and no one has been farming for a long time.
The price of rice in Jingzhou has soared to one thousand yuan per stone. Naturally, the supply exceeds the demand for someone like him who earns five hundred yuan.
Hearing this, the military academy also became interested.
He immediately said: "You are selling it at a good deal. In this case, it is hard for you to travel all the way.
I will designate a buyer for you, and the guarantee will wrap up this shipment of rice at once. What do you think? "
When Ling Tong heard this, he didn¡¯t know if he really thought that way or if he was deliberately testing himself.
But he still acted like a businessman and said, "That's great. Thank you, Master Jun. Thank you, Master Jun!"
" In this way, the military academy no longer had any doubts. He returned to his ship and continued upstream with Ling Tong.
These soldiers are actually the Yizhou defenders from Yidao City upstream.
Before Liu Bei left, he arranged for them to guard the river, so these people patrolled upstream and downstream every day.
The soldiers and horses of Yizhou came in a hurry this time and did not carry much rations.
At this moment, Yidao's food reserves are almost running out. Guard Wang Chong had applied for it before, but the reply he received was that he could handle it himself.
Therefore, in the past few days, in addition to defending the river, all the Yidao defenders were sent out to purchase food.
?????????????????????????????????????? But ordinary people are hungry for food, and there is no surplus to sell to them.
Liu Bei also carried the name of benevolence and righteousness and strictly prohibited forced buying and selling, so Wang Chong's harvest was not very good.
He even said that whoever can buy food will be promoted to the third level immediately.
So it¡¯s no wonder that the military academy was so excited when they saw that Ling Tong was a businessman in the grain business.
Although Ling Tong still has some doubts in his heart, if he refuses now, everything that happened just now will naturally be broken instantly.
So we can only bite the bullet and follow the opponent's progress.
In the afternoon, the patrol boat finally arrived outside a city and docked at the ferry.
Ling Tong parked the three ships at the dock, and he took a few personal followers with him and followed the military academy into the city.
After arriving at the city gate, Ling Tong looked up and said: "Yidao!"
The thoughts in my mind were racing, but I finally suppressed them and walked into the city calmly.
After arriving at the county government, the military academy left Ling Tong waiting at the door for a while while he went in first.
After a while, he rushed out with a face of joy.
"Boss, the general has agreed to see you, please follow me in."
On the way, he kept telling Ling Tong not to look at things he didn¡¯t dare to look at, and not to listen to things he shouldn¡¯t hear.
It seems that the military academy wants to complete this business more.
Coming to the hall, a general with a majestic face was sitting in the middle.
Seeing Ling Tong come in, he immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face.
"Boss Tong, my subordinates have just told me about your situation. I wonder if the boss is interested in making a deal with me?"
Hearing this, Ling Tong couldn't help but be stunned.
But the other party thought he was hesitant, so he smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will never buy or sell by force when doing business.
All transactions are fair and all property is fully settled. If the boss is dissatisfied, he can leave at any time. I will never force him! "
This time, Ling Tong no longer hesitated. When he mentioned the price, Wang Chong nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Afterwards, he sent Shu Yu and Ling Tong to go to the dock to make the delivery. After counting the quantity, he paid immediately.
Ling Tong took advantage of his men to carry food and walked around the city in the name of buying daily necessities.
During this period, he quietly checked the surrounding garrison and kept it in mind.
Although the military academy accompanied him all the way, because he had just concluded this business, he was about to be promoted to the third level.
There was only joy in my heart, and I didn¡¯t notice the other party¡¯s hidden moves at all.
After a full hour, all the food in the cabin was carried away.
Wang Chong also paid the full payment very readily.
No wonder Wang Chong is so happy, Ling Tong and his party have just solved his urgent need.
So before leaving, Wang Chong took Ling Tong's hand and said: "Boss Tong, you have helped me a lot this time.
If you still want to traffic, just come to Yidao, we will charge you as much as you want, absolutely no credit! "
Hearing this, Ling Tong hurriedly pretended to be flattered and said, "Thank you, General, for taking care of me. I'll come after I get back."
The general will definitely be satisfied when the time comes! "
Wang Chong did not understand the meaning of the other party's words. He patted Ling Tong on the shoulder with satisfaction and watched the other party leave.
However, what Wang Chong didn¡¯t know was that the next time Ling Tong came, he would bring swords instead of food.
This trip to Yi Dao was also thrilling for Ling Tong, and if anything went wrong, he would be doomed. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
