The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

"That's it." Shopkeeper Qian pondered for a while and said, "I'll take you to a place and meet a person. If you can get his permission, you can join the group. Let's make a fortune together! It's a rare opportunity!"

Yan Song's eyes flashed.

Sure enough, such a large-scale hoarding in Tianjin is strange, and there are people behind it, and the background is not small.

"it is good!"

Yan Song and the others were taken to a tea house by shopkeeper Qian.

This teahouse in the bustling city is inconspicuous, but it is quiet in the middle of the bustle, with a special charm.

"Wait here for a while." Shopkeeper Qian went in, and after a while he came in and said with an apologetic smile, "Boss Gao, my boss invites you to meet him."

Yan Song smiled and nodded, leading Shakespeare, Chen Yuanyuan and others into another exquisite private room.

In this private room, there is a precious fragrance, and the musk in the air is charming. There is a Persian carpet that is as expensive as gold under the feet. There are ancient famous paintings on the wall, and there is a pearl curtain that separates the back from the living room.

"Who is this? Why is he so powerful?" Hai Rui muttered, "Oh! Why are you kicking me?"

Yan Song secretly kicked him to signal him to shut up.

After a while, a voice sounded from behind the pearl curtain.

"Boss Gao, so you also want to join us and make a fortune in Tianjin together?" The voice seemed to be changed by some tool, and the voice that came out was indescribably weird.

Shopkeeper Qian stood in front of the pearl curtain and said with a smile, "Everyone, my master, I never see anyone. But right now, the entire food supply in Tianjin is under his control. Boss Gao is standing there, just chat with my master."

Hai Rui 580 murmured, "What kind of ghosts and snake spirits are you acting so sneaky?"

Yan Song felt that this voice seemed to have been heard somewhere, but he was not sure for a moment, and said lightly: "Not bad! I also want to do food business together. However, this business seems to be very risky."

"There is indeed a risk." The owner sneered, "I don't know how much Boss Gao plans to invest in this business?"

Yan Song put a stack of bank notes on the table and said calmly: "This is 1000 million taels, if it's not enough, I can borrow it!"

"1000 million!" Even the mastermind behind the scenes became short of breath: "It does have some strength."

Yan Song said lightly: "Can I join you and start the food business together?"

"No way!" The chief envoy was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "You know how risky this matter is. If the imperial court finds out about our details, we won't be able to afford it."

"The imperial court, you can also seal up your grain store and search the grain right now!" Yan Song provoked him deliberately.

"Hmph!" The chief envoy sneered, "There really isn't any grain in the grain store! Even if the imperial court ransacked the house, they wouldn't be able to find any grain!"

Yan Song was surprised this time, but it was no small matter.

Chapter 707 The mastermind behind the scenes [5]

Hai Rui almost cried out.

what?

The grain stores in Tianjin are basically empty?

Isn't Tianjin very dangerous at this time?

The official grain depots are almost full, but the private grain merchants have no food in stock?

It's still at least a month before food comes in from outside!

How can Tianjin survive this month?

Without food, let alone defeating the Mongols, even defending the city would be impossible.

Soon, the people without food will break out into chaos driven by hunger, and Tianjin City's good defensive posture will be destroyed in one fell swoop.Al Dahan didn't even need to attack the city, he could calmly break through Tianjin.

Yan Song was startled, but he quickly concealed the fluctuation in his heart, and said with a faint smile: "You are joking! I don't believe it!"

The envoy sneered and said, "Believe it or not. The grain stores in Tianjin at this time, combined, do not store more than a thousand buckets of grain! The rest are all under my control!"

His laughter grew louder and louder: "Then Yan Song is quite smart. After the first failure to expropriate stored grain, he didn't come back immediately. If he really wants to forcefully expropriate grain, he will find out in despair that there is no grain stored in Tianjin! If you push me any further, I'll set fire to all the stored food! Let's see how Yan Song can pass the Mongols' challenge? Hahaha!"

Yan Song remained calm and gave Gai Nie a wink.

He asked Gai Nie to see if he could spy on the infiltration and find out the true identity of the envoy.

Gai Nie shook his head, indicating that there are many powerful enemies lurking around Mr. Yan Ge, so he should not act rashly.

A strong enemy that can make even Ge Nie feel troublesome must be extraordinary.

This enemy has a lot of background.

The key right now is to find the Tianjin food that this person hid, otherwise the dog will jump over the wall and burn it, which will deal a big blow to Yan Song's overall plan.

"Haha, you must not have lied to me...`"..." Yan Song said indifferently: "As far as I know, Tianjin has a large reserve of grain, and it is distributed in the hands of various wealthy merchants. How could you have the ability , secretly dealt with so many wealthy merchants? Can Yan Song and the court not be disturbed?"

"Cheat you?" The envoy sneered: "Tianjin's food reserves are indeed not small, but I have greater influence in Tianjin! Then Yan Song is only the king of Tianjin on the surface, and I have penetrated Tianjin for many years, and I am actually in control of Tianjin. The White Lotus Sect, the merchant group, and even the officials in Tianjin have been completely infiltrated by me. I said that Tianjin has no food now, and Tianjin has no food!"

Listening to the man's confident statement, Yan Song looked into the pearl curtain.

He seemed to know the identity of the mastermind behind this scene.

But for a while, he still can't startle the snake.

"Since you are so powerful, why do you need me to join in the business?" Yan Song said lightly.

"Because there are still some official grains from Daming!" The man sneered and said, "For a while, Tianjin will not be without food. Although I have been tightening the supply of various grain stores, forcing Yan Song Opening granaries in advance to release rations consumes his military ration reserves, but Yan Song seems to have thought of the food problem and has not released public rations for a long time. But once the people are hungry and want to rebel, he won't last long!"
