    "Brother Xie, Miss Xie, Cheng Zhong has a question for you two." Cheng Zhong said.  "Mr. Cheng, it's okay to say it," Xie Sicun said.  "They are both grains. Is there any difference between the grains in Kuaiji and Huating?" Cheng Zhong asked.  "Brother Cheng, let's see what you said. Although Huating and Kuaiji are far apart, there is no difference between the two places. They both have food. Why do you ask this?" Xie Jiangbo said.  Cheng Zhong did not answer Xie Jiangbo, but looked at Xie Sicun with a smile on his face.  Xie Sicun suddenly realized: "Young master Cheng, you mean to bring your banknotes to Kuaiji to buy grain?" "That's right!" Cheng Zhong clapped his hands and said, "You don't have to go to Kuaiji, you just need to go to the towns around Kuaiji to buy grain, and then  Just transport it to Kuaiji City. If you bring the banknotes and hurry up, you can arrive in less than two days. Then you can buy the grain at a high price and transport it to Kuaiji City in one day. It's still enough time. " "Yes, why don't I have it?  Think of it!" Xie Jiangbo came back to his senses and said loudly.  Xie Sicun bowed his head deeply: "Young Master is a great talent, I admire you very much!" Indeed, Cheng Zhong's method seems very simple, but it is difficult for ordinary people to think of it in such a short period of time.  "Ms. Xie is too modest. Such a trivial skill is not something that the young lady would not have thought of. It is just chaos caused by caring." Cheng Zhong said humbly.  Time was tight, and the three of them did not dare to delay, so they divided the work first.  Xie Jiangbo stayed in Huating and continued to purchase grain and grass.  This is the easiest job at present. After all, the Xie family has a deep foundation and strength in Huating. Although they suffered a sudden blow, it is not difficult to raise food and grass.  Xie Sicun went to Ningbo with his banknotes to buy grain in case of emergency.  Purchasing grain may seem the simplest at first, but it is actually the most complicated.  If merchants in Ningbo learn that the Xie family is going to buy grain and rice on a large scale, they will inevitably encounter price hikes. How to deal with it will be a critical issue.  Cheng Zhongze went to Caobang to seek help, but no one else could do it, only Cheng Zhong went there.  From a distance, Cheng Zhong saw the word "Cao" flying in front of Caobang's door, and couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm down his nervous mood.  ¡°Who is it?!¡± Two people suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Zhong, blocking the way with fierce looks.  The two men were tall and tall, holding a sharp long knife in their hands, as if they would chop them down if they disagreed. Cheng Zhongqiang calmed himself down, showed his jade pendant, and said slowly: "I want to find Qi Ye  !" The two people blocking the road looked at each other, and their attitude immediately became respectful, "Please wait a moment, we will report it immediately!" Cheng Zhong felt a little more at ease, and it seemed that Ji Ying had not deceived him.  Inside Caobang - there was a loud sound, the plates and bowls were thrown out again, and the food inside was spilled onto the ground intact, covered in oil stains.  A grumpy voice came from the door: "How many times have I told you, I won't eat, I won't eat! Go tell the old guy, if you don't let me out for a day, I won't eat for a day, and I will starve to death soon."  Yes, and his wish came true. "If Cheng Zhong was here, he would definitely be able to tell that it was Ji Ying who spoke.  It's just that Cheng Zhong has never heard of him calling himself "Laozi".  "Master Qi, the gang leader said that you need to take a good rest if you are injured and cannot let you go out." The maid said cautiously.  "Stop talking like a bastard. My injury has healed a long time ago. Do you think I am the same as those delicate little ladies? Don't use this lame reason to fool me!" Jiying said.  "Although I was assassinated last time, I was lucky enough to have nothing to worry about, right? Besides, the traitor in the gang has been found out and executed, so what else is there to worry about?" Since the last time I went out,  After the attack, Cheng Ying was grounded.  It has been more than two months now, and Ji Ying is almost driven crazy.  "Hurry up and tell the old guy, if you don't let me out, I will fight. When the time comes, people will kill people, and Buddhas will kill Buddhas. Don't blame me for not telling you in advance!" As for Cheng Ying's temper, Caobangzhong  I'm afraid there aren't many who don't know that almost everyone trembled when they heard her harsh words. In this case, maybe only the old guy Ji Ying said could calm him down.  At this moment, the two sentry gang members ran in, and just in time a porcelain bowl broke under their feet. The two were so frightened that they did not even dare to say anything and were speechless.  "Come over here!" Ji Ying shouted loudly.  Everyone knew that Ji Ying was definitely going to play tricks on these two people, so they couldn't help but look at them sympathetically.  But Qiye is playing tricksMy brother is very measured and won't really cause any trouble.  "Master Qi, please give me your orders!" the two said in fear.  "Look at you, two big men, stand tall and speak." Ji Ying patted the two of them on their bent backs.  The two quickly straightened their backs.  "That's right! All the boys in my Cao Gang stand tall, their waists must be straight, and they must speak forcefully." Ji Ying said with satisfaction: "Now tell me what happened? I'm in the right place now.  I have time to deal with your affairs." I'm afraid no one will believe the last sentence. Ji Ying is so free now that she has almost nothing to do. What do you mean by "just having time"?  Total nonsense!  Now he just wants to keep the world in chaos and wants to get involved in everything. If he can get involved, he will get in, and if he can't get in, he will get involved.  "Master Qi, there is someone calling for you outside the door!" The two of them have greeted all eighteen generations of Cheng Zhong's ancestors, so they shouldn't have sent messages for him in the first place.  "Is there someone looking for me outside the door?" Ji Ying said: "Did you miss it? What kind of person am I? How can I meet someone just when I say I want to? If the other party is a spy of the Japanese pirates, you just let them go openly like this.  Come in?" "As for Master Qi, I didn't dare to let him in and let him wait outside." "Well, that makes sense." Ji Ying nodded approvingly: "Did he say his name?  "Name?" The two gatekeepers were already distracted when they saw the jade pendant. They didn't remember to ask Cheng Zhong's name. When Master Qi asked, they were speechless and shook their heads.  Now Ji Ying was even more annoyed: "You guys came to report this without even knowing his name. It's ridiculous! Go and ask his name!" "It's Master Qi." The two of them were furious at being scolded and went back.  , while preparing to cross-examine Cheng Zhong.  At this moment, Ji Ying stopped them again: "Wait a minute, what do you think this person looks like?" Ji Ying's heart suddenly moved, and like a strange coincidence, a figure actually appeared in her mind. Could it be him?  "That man looks less than twenty years old and a little thin." One of them said.  Ji Ying's breathing suddenly became rapid, "Is his surname Cheng, Cheng Zhong?" The two of them shook their heads and said, "Master Qi, we really don't know what his surname is, but he is holding your jade pendant in his hand.  "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Ji Ying shouted, then waved his hand and said, "Forget it, hurry up and invite that person over. You have done a great job."  There is a reward." The two were overjoyed and were about to turn around to invite Cheng Zhong, but they heard Master Qi shouting: "Come back!" The two of them turned around without knowing what was going on.  "Open the door, and I will greet him personally." Ji Ying said loudly.  Cheng Zhong had been waiting in front of the door for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel a little tired. Just when he wanted to sit down and rest for a while, the door of Caogang suddenly opened¡ª¡ª
