Chapter 693 Acceptance
Ding Feng who was kneeling on the ground turned pale when he heard Tie Si's words, and looked up at Shangguan Qiuyu who had a flickering expression.

Hastily said:

"Major General... My Ding family has food, and my Ding family has food. As long as the major general is willing to rescue my father, my Ding family is willing to provide the army with food and grass."

"Press?" Just when Shangguan Qiuyu was determined to get up and leave.

Hearing Ding Feng shout that Ding's family has food, Shangguan Qiuyu stared at Ding Feng in front of him.

"Say it again," Shangguan Qiuyu said coldly.

You have to know that for an ordinary army of 200 million, the food and grass needed for a day is piled up like a mountain, let alone 200 million elite soldiers.

Outside Yucheng.The elite soldiers of the four major legions all have the cultivation level of body training.

Even in the face of the well-trained elite army, the soldiers of the four major armies of Yucheng, they can all fight ten against one.

If they are facing ordinary local troops, they can even defeat a hundred with one.

However, while the combat power of the four major legions is unparalleled, the food and grass required are naturally several times or even ten times that of other elite armies.

Now that the Shangguan family relies on the half-state fiefdom, it can only support a million elite soldiers, and there is nothing more they can do.

The main reason why Shangguan Qiuyu wantonly collected money and cooperated with Lianyue Pavilion was to accumulate money so as to support more troops.

Therefore, when he heard Ding Feng say that the Ding family had food, he couldn't help but want to see how much food the other party had in his hands.

Is it worthwhile for me to turn against the Dongfang family for the sake of a small Ding family?

Facing Shangguan Qiuyu's sudden stern eyes, Ding Feng couldn't help but swallowed, and said:

"Because the villain's father wanted to get involved in the food industry, he invested most of the Ding family's wealth in food.

In the past five years, my Ding family has bought and hoarded grain in various states and counties in the Central Plains, although I don't know the exact amount.

However, apart from the prefectures and counties in the border areas of Dayu, and the grain shops in all states and counties in the Central Plains, my Ding family controls more than [-]% of the grain supply. "

As if he was afraid that what he said was not intuitive enough, Ding Feng went on to say:
"Although I don't know how many troops the old general Zhen Guo sent this time.

However, even if all the four major armies outside Yucheng go out to fight, our Ding family can guarantee a continuous supply of food and grass for three years. "

"Boom" Ding Feng's words surprised Shangguan Qiuyu Qiuyu.

He didn't expect Ding's father to have such courage, in order to occupy a place in the grain industry.

He was willing to use most of the family assets accumulated by the Ding family for several generations to buy grain from the states and counties of the Central Plains, so as to compete with the Dongfang family.

For troubled times, what is the most important?Nothing more than people and food these two things.

The most essential part of the entire Dayu Dynasty is the dozens of states and counties located in the Central Plains.

The Central Plains is located in the middle of Dayu, free from interference from foreign tribes. Although there is a disaster from the sect, it is only for the imperial court.

Thousands of years of peace and comfort have resulted in dense population and rich products in the Central Plains, and frequent wars in the border states and counties. All states and counties in the Central Plains need support for everything they need.

And the Ding family, relying on the family assets accumulated by their ancestors for several generations, won [-]% of the grain business in more than ten counties and counties in the Central Plains in one fell swoop.

The Ding family's move was tantamount to pulling a tooth out of a tiger's mouth. In this way, Shangguan Qiuyu finally understood why the Dongfang family would take action against the Ding family.

[-]% doesn't seem like much, but it is already able to shake Dongfang's monopoly position in the grain industry.

In this way, if the Dongfang family does not take action to crush the Ding family to death, when the Ding family is supported by the court to check and balance the Dongfang family, then the Dongfang family will be completely passive.

Although this possibility is very low, it has to be guarded against.

Of course, it's a pity in the end that the Ding family has financial resources, but they don't have much voice among the officials, which has caused the current tragedy of the Ding family.

As long as businessmen are profitable, they will become free from scruples.

The reason why businessmen repeatedly pay attention to the word "integrity" does not mean that they are really honest in their hearts.

Their honesty is based on the fact that they can earn money and pay attention to honesty.

There is a saying that there is no benefit, and if there is no gain, see if there are any businessmen who are willing to lose their income for the word of integrity.

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

Obviously, the imperial family did not want to alienate the Dongfang family because of the Ding family.

Just like the families of the eight major kingdoms, why have they been able to control the power of the upper echelons of the Dayu Dynasty for thousands of years.

The reason is nothing more than the fact that the interests of the royal family and the eight major families are consistent.

Therefore, even if the power of the Eight Great Families is overwhelming, the royal family will still trust the Eight Great Families as always.

The four major business families have always supported the Dayu Dynasty for thousands of years, and shared the rise and fall of the Dayu Dynasty, so they have today's wealth.

The Ding family's move is completely speculative, so if they want to wrestle with him, they obviously don't even have the qualifications.

That's why he was dealt with by a Yucheng order whose official rank was not as high as the county guard.

After a long time, after weighing the pros and cons, Shangguan Qiuyu stared at Ding Feng who was kneeling on the ground with a pleading face, and asked in a cold voice:
"Can you be the head of the Ding family?"

"Press?"

Seeing Shangguan Qiuyu's expression, Ding Feng was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to think of something, gritted his teeth and nodded:
"Yes, the villain is willing to dedicate everything in the Ding family to the Major General, and I hope the Major General will take it in."

Now that the Ding family has hated the Dongfang family, if there is no one to protect them, even if Shangguan Qiuyu rescues Ding's father, the Ding family will still be doomed.

Therefore, Ding Feng's idea is very simple, that is to pay the Ding family everything and take refuge in Shangguan's family.

If there is a Shangguan family as a backer, then the Dongfang family will have some concerns, which can also prevent the Ding family from being ruined.

"Ha ha" Hearing Ding Feng's answer, Shangguan Qiuyu couldn't help laughing.

These days, what is important is that the son inherits the father's business. No matter how bad the son is, the family business must be inherited by the son after all.

Even Wu Guogong is different?No matter how miserable his son was, when he made a heinous mistake, he would put aside his old face and put his son's life first.

Ding Feng is the only son of the Ding family, as long as he has his promise, the entire Ding family can belong to the Shangguan family.

As for Ding's father who is still in prison, Shangguan Qiuyu is not worried at all about the other party's repentance.

Just kidding, dare to renege on the debt, unless the Ding family's knives are not sharp enough.

In this way, the Shangguan family can produce countless more grains for nothing, and at the same time, with the Ding family's line, I don't need to spend a lot of effort to set up the Shangguan family's business.

Directly merge the Dingjia firm, which can save a lot of time.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Qiuyu no longer hesitated, and bluntly assured him:
"In this case, you go back first, I will find a way to rescue your father from prison."

"Young General Xie, Young General Xie..."

Received Shangguan Qiuyu's guarantee, Ding Feng couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude.

He had had enough of the fear during this period of time. Although the money accumulated by several generations of the Ding family was gone, at least his fate was saved.

As long as life is saved, everything else is secondary.

What's more, his father can also be saved, and with the support of the Shangguan family in the future, it is not hopeless for the Ding family to revive their family business.
