Businessmen can't afford to make profits early, and they are as shrewd as businessmen, and they are afraid that they are even dreaming of making money.The Marquis of Blowing Water has a life-saving grace for him and helps him eradicate his mortal enemy, and he should stand up and actively appeal to everyone to sell grain to express his gratitude, which is human nature.I have to say that Cui Mao's influence in all walks of life in Qinghe is extremely great.When everyone saw that he was willing to pour all his resources and put pressure on Ren Zhen, the doubts in their hearts were alleviated a lot, and they responded to his call and agreed to pay on credit.They thought in their hearts that even if there was a stubble in the future, the biggest victim would be Cui Mao anyway, and he would take the lead and find a way to dredge the joints and ask for food, and the others would only need to follow behind, without worrying too much.Listening to the responses one after another, Ren Zhen smiled and finally breathed a sigh of relief.On the way to Qinghe, he was worried that Cui Mao was a cunning man, and he would either not agree to sell grain on credit, or he would extort a sum of money, and he was afraid that the negotiation would be very tricky.Unexpectedly, he didn't see Cui Mao yet, and the latter was killed.Standing in the position of his disciple Cui Mingjiu, he must seek revenge on Cui Shenmo and offend the Cui family.Fortunately, yesterday in Cui's Mansion, he was in a hurry and came up with this trick to kill two birds with one stone.Using the means of disguise, the director of a good show of Cui Mao coming back to life, can not only expose Cui Shenmo's conspiracy, help Cui Mingjiu take away the family property, and take revenge, but also use Cui Mao's high prestige to drive the Qinghe gentry to sell grain, so as to complete the task of this trip.Looking at the current situation, everything was as he expected, and it was done.He stood up and was about to thank Qinghe's father and elder present, when Cui Shenmo, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly raised his head and sneered."
Do you think that if you save Cui Mao and bring me down, you will be able to take away the grain from Qinghe" He got up from the ground, his eyes resentful, "Cai Jiushi, your dream will never come true."
Just last night, His Majesty's holy decree came to my house, and you can't take away the hoarding of grain in Qinghe County" Ren Zhen heard this, and the smile on his face suddenly dispersed, "Holy Decree" He didn't understand what Cui Shenmo's sudden words meant.The others were equally stunned.Cui Shenmo straightened his clothes and said indifferently: "It is not only the front line that is short of food, but also the capital.A few years ago, the grain in northern Hunan was burned, the royal family's grain supply was interrupted, and the local supply in the capital was no longer available.His Majesty ordered Lord Cao Yin to come and purchase grain and rice for the royal family. ”The Purchasing Division is one of the three major imperial organizations in the Northern Tang Dynasty, specializing in purchasing daily necessities for the royal family in the private sector to meet the needs of the royal family and even the empress herself.If Cao Yin really came, it would be undoubtedly in accordance with the order.He looked at Ren Zhen playfully, "The grain in Qinghe County was ordered by Lord Cao, replacing Xiangbei as the exclusive supply of the royal family.Cai Jiushi, you came to Qinghe to raise military rations, and you are definitely not acting on orders, otherwise, how could Your Majesty contradict yourself and send Lord Cao to rush over" When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled at the same time, regretting their promise just now.Without the permission of the imperial court, Ren Zhen promised them that the imperial court would return the grain payment later, which is unreliable no matter how it sounds, it is more like a casual perfunctory, painting cakes to satisfy their hunger.At that time, if the imperial court takes Ren Zhen as a scapegoat and denies it, what can people whisper and can't help but start discussing.Seeing this, Ren Zhen knew that the scene was about to get out of control, and if he didn't suppress Cui Shenmo's arrogance, most of them would really not be able to take away the military rations.His face did not change, and he said awe-inspiringly: "The general is outside, the king's order is not affected, the military situation has always been urgent, and there can be no delay, if you wait for the imperial court to approve the request for instructions, go back and forth for several days, the army will have long run out of food Since I know that there is grain in Qinghe, as a transfer envoy, do I have no right to make a decision immediately" Cui Shenmo was speechless.Ren Zhen turned to look at everyone present and said, "Cai's actions and reputation in the capital, you must have heard of it.With my identity, with His Majesty's reliance on me, isn't it enough to exchange for everyone's trust" Cui Shenmo was unwilling, and argued: "Don't pretend to be here and let you talk wildly, Lord Cao was ordered to buy grain, and he has a genuine holy decree in his hand, and you have no evidence, of course we have to act according to the order and hand over the grain to him" He glanced at everyone and said viciously: "I don't believe it, you dare to resist and disobey the decree" Everyone was silent.The purchasing department is running errands for the empress, and if they don't sell the grain to Cao Yin, it is equivalent to letting the empress run out of grain and have no rice to cook, which is a big crime, and they can't afford it.Ren Zhen's mind turned sharply, and he quickly retorted: "Even if it is ordered to buy grain, it must be disposed of as appropriate, and there will be no definite amount."
How many people in the entire royal family can eat hundreds of thousands of stone rice at once, who said that they have to swallow it all," Cui Shenmo said.Ren Zhen didn't give him a chance to talk back, and said sharply: "The national law is still too big to be human, not to mention that there are priorities, if the military rations on the front line are delayed, let alone Qinghe County, I'm afraid that I won't even be able to hold the capital, I don't believe it, Your Majesty knows what happened today, and will think that the imperial grain is greater than the military rations" Seeing that his voice was fierce, Cui Shenmo was speechless, and subconsciously took a step back.Ren Zhen's words changed sharply, and he said kindly: "Everyone, please rest assured, I will not embarrass you.After the dinner, I will meet Cao Yin in person and discuss the matter with him.In fact, there is no conflict between the two, you can set aside some of the imperial food, and I will take the rest away for emergency relief. ”Everyone was slightly relieved, this was indeed a compromise.Obviously, the empress didn't know that Ren Zhen also came to Qinghe, and after she learned the truth, if she blamed Qinghe County for not discriminating priorities and delaying the supply of military supplies, they would not be able to eat and go around.Ren Zhen turned around and glanced at Cui Shenmo, his face suddenly cold, "Cao Yin is a sensible person, everyone will deal with it properly, where is your turn to point fingers and die to the end, and even want to fan the flames, come and put him on death row" Finally stabilized the emotions of the gentry, Ren Zhen didn't dare to let Cui Shenmo add chaos anymore, and ordered his subordinates to take him into custody.Cui Shenmo was completely flustered at this time, and no matter how hard he begged Ren Zhen, it would be useless.He knew that with Ren Zhen's thunderous methods tonight, he would definitely not let him live a few more days, and in this Qinghe County, no one could save him.At this point in the banquet, the things that should be said have been said, and the people who should be arrested have also been arrested, and the guests have tacitly known that Ren Zhen's drama has been sung, and they have thanked and retired.Sending everyone away, in the huge auditorium, only Ren Zhen and fake Cui Mao were left.Ren Zhen sat in his original position and said with a smile: "The play is good."
It's really hard for you to be called from the barracks temporarily. ”After making up his mind last night, he hurried out of the city and went to the Tiger Guard barracks, selected a sergeant with a similar figure to Cui Mao, and then disguised him.He was afraid that the stand-in would be nervous and would show flaws, so he didn't dare to arrange many scenes for him.When the fake Cui Mao appeared just now, his heart was in his throat.Fortunately, the stand-in was fortunate to live up to his life, completed the task brilliantly, and deceived the shocked crowd.The stand-in smiled awkwardly and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.At this time, Cui Mingjiu and Yang Xuanji came over.Ren Zhen looked at Cui Mingjiu and said in a deep voice: "People can't be resurrected after death, at this critical juncture, I hope you can mourn."
The next thing for the Cui family will be hosted by you. ”He believes that after the truth is revealed, Cui Shenmo and his gang will be imprisoned, and most of the Cui family still support Cui Mao, keep him as the head of the family, and do not leave the Cui family.The stand-in stood on one side, nervous, "I" Ren Zhen said: "You don't have to worry, Xiao Cui, let out the word tomorrow, your father has not yet recovered, after this drastic change, he is disheartened, and he doesn't want to ask about the Cui family anymore, so he decided to take over as the head of the family." ”Cui Mingjiu nodded and did not speak.After this catastrophe, he has become much more silent and introverted, and he is no longer naïve and innocent in his view of things.He understood that the only way to comfort his father under Jiuquan was to cheer up and take care of the family business and business he left behind.In this way, he will truly inherit his legacy.Ren Zhen was still not at ease, and continued to explain: "As for this stand-in, just stay in the countryside of Qinghe and enjoy the happiness of being able to be worshiped by the richest family, this is a great blessing, much happier than you being a soldier." ”After that, he glanced at Cui Mingjiu intentionally or unintentionally.Cui Mingjiu understood and knew that this was a reminder to him that he must always monitor the stand-in to prevent the leakage of secrets.A woman's kindness will only harm herself, and if necessary, killing a substitute and destroying her mouth is not a fulfillment of righteousness.He retired with a stand-in.Yang Xuanji sat silently next to him and didn't say a word.At this time, there were no outsiders, Ren Zhen frowned, and his restlessness was overflowing, "At this juncture, the purchasing department actually came to cause chaos."
I have seen Cao Yin's side, looking at this person's face, he is by no means a good type, I am afraid it is not easy to deal with. ”When Ren Zhen first went to the court, he had an endless dispute with Liu Chengyan of the household department in the court because of the purchase of military rations.At that time, Cao Yin stood up on behalf of the purchasing division and tried to fish in troubled waters.Therefore, Ren Zhen has an impression of this person.Chapter 228 Yang Xuanji asked, "What are you going to do" Ren Zhen pondered for a moment, and was about to open his mouth to answer, when a doorman walked in and said respectfully: "Lord Houhou, Lord Cao Yin is coming to visit and is waiting in the living room. ”Ren Zhen couldn't help but smile bitterly, this is really Cao Cao
