Gong Huaien looked domineering and spoke aggressively, which made Yang Chengzu feel unhappy.
But he had just chosen a maid from the palace and was very angry.
Now he was in a good mood, so he didn't care about her.
He smiled and said: "Eunuch Gong, you have misunderstood.
I don't know whose grain is in the warehouse, and I don't want to know.
I don't intend to embarrass anyone.
I only went to the warehouse to copy Jin Jiuling's grain.
As for other people's grain inside, I will not touch a grain of rice.
I promised Chitose this, and I also promise you that if anyone touches your or your friends’ food, just talk to me.”
"I'm talking to you.
Can you afford it?
Let alone you.
Even the governor of Henan Shen Dongkui and Lao Dongheng can't afford it.
Let me advise you.
This food issue is too big for you, a small household.
You can't afford to mix it up.
The price of food will naturally follow the market trend and cannot be reversed by human intervention.
If you want to reduce the price of food by saving more food, I will only give you these four words.
It's a fool's errand."
Yang Chengzu thought to himself: This eunuch has a good brain, and he actually guessed that I wanted to lower the price.
But it's one thing to see it, and another thing to be able to crack it.
This time, he is not fighting alone.
Henan Governor Shen Dongkui, Henan Chief Minister and Zhang Jiayin are all his allies.
It must be said that in this era, although the Zhengde Dynasty is not a prosperous dynasty, it still has a group of officials who are willing to do serious work.
If everyone from top to bottom wants to rely on food to get rich and seize people's land and create famines artificially, then he will have no choice but to buy some food to ensure that he does not starve to death.
Now seeing Gong Huai'en turning his back, Yang Chengzu's face darkened, "Eunuch Gong, you mean to say that even if it is Jin Changling's food, you are not going to let me take it away."
"What about Jin Changling's grain?
We entrusted him to buy the grain.
He just transported it on our behalf.
Those grains are all ours.
What does it have to do with him?
Get your people out quickly and don't follow Shen Dongkui's nonsense.
I see For Chitose's sake, I won't argue with you.
Otherwise, you have to be careful about your future."
Zhu Muxuan said at this time: "Huai'en, please stop saying a word and try the taste of this bear's paw."
"Thank you Chitose for the reward.
I'm very grateful to you.
This bear's paw was cooked by the chef in your house, so it tastes very good.
It's just that such a good dish should be used to entertain distinguished guests, such as a military minister and a servant like this. , It’s a waste of this good thing.”
"Can't you say that?
Wynn, you are a smart man.
You see many things more clearly than I do.
As for some things, I don't need to explain them clearly.
You should understand them.
I don't ask about food matters. , I don’t want to get involved, but I don’t want to do it myself This kind of business hurts one's moral integrity.

I am also the master of the two palaces of King Tang and King Yi.
We have decided to hand over the food of the three palaces to the Governor's Inspectorate.
Please don't stop me when you turn around and ask the Jinyi Guards to take it away.
It’s the king’s wish, I won’t ask about other grains.”
You must know that this kind of thing that drives up food prices must be an alliance to be effective.
Once one person withdraws, it may affect the layout of the entire alliance.
In particular, the alliance between the three princes of Zhou, Tang, and Yi was an important part of this food price alliance.
They are local snakes, have financial power and influence, and are connected with the blood of the Tian family.
Even if the local officials want to forcefully open a position, they must consider these factors and have to be cautious.
Once they withdraw from this operation, it will be equivalent to tearing down the pillars of this price alliance, leaving Gong Huaien's position somewhat scattered.
After all, he was a foreign guard official, and the purpose of coming here was to make a fortune.
Most of the money he got was sent back to the capital, and the money in his hand was not enough.
In order to raise the price of grain, the demand for funds is very large, and he will never be able to accomplish it by himself, which requires the capital participation of the royal family.
If Wang Fu withdraws, his capital chain will have problems.
Gong Huai'en said hurriedly: "Chitose, you see what I said?
You didn't know about this business originally.
It was done by several stewards in your house together with the slaves.
They also had good intentions.
In order to increase the number of people in your house, I want some income to prevent the Tian family’s bloodline from suffering poverty, right?”
"I know what they mean, but I still don't lack this little money in my family.
Yang Baihu, don't stand still and use your chopsticks.
I like you as a strong general with a straightforward temper.
This is the best thing for me.
Appetite, don’t be restrained, just eat what you have.”
Seeing King Zhou's attitude, even a fool knew which side he was leaning towards.
Gong Huai'en coughed twice and forced a smile on his face, "Yang Baihu, what I said just now may be a bit harsh.
Don't take it seriously.
Our family's People are outspoken and don't know how to speak.
In fact, what I said is for your own good.
This food business is not as simple as you think.
It would be better if we stock up on more food than if we have no food in Henan.
It’s for sale.”
"As for the poor ghosts who starve to death, those poor ghosts will never die.
If they die this year, they will be replaced from elsewhere next year.
Besides, there are porridge shacks and people have teeth, so many people will starve to death.
This business involves There are a lot of people.
If you get involved rashly, be careful and hurt yourself.
Let’s do this.
I also know that it’s not easy for you Jinyiwei and your life is hard.
I want you to join in and everyone can make a fortune together.
What do you think?”
His attitude could be regarded as looking at the face of King Zhou, allowing Yang Chengzu to take a share of the pie and not to harm his own affairs.
Yang Chengzu smiled and said: "Thank you very much, father-in-law for your love.
I'll toast you."
Gong Huai'en drank the wine and said with a smile: "He who knows the current affairs is a hero.

If you can recognize the form, you will not worry about being able to prosper in the future.
Let me say a word for you and guarantee that your official position will be promoted."
"Thank you so much, father-in-law, but I don't dare to have so many ideas.
I only want one thing, and that is Jin Changling's grain.
I have an account of how much grain he has in that grain depot.
I can find out with a quick check.
I guarantee it."
I won’t mention it more.
Chitose is willing to donate the food.
This is Chitose’s kindness.
I want to toast to Chitose for the people of Henan Province.
Chitose, this official is overstepping his bounds.”
Zhu Muxuan laughed and said: "Yang Baihu, you are too polite.
I see your temper, so I will drink your toast.
I don't care what others think of you.
I support your opinion.
These grains are I'll help you.
If any of the two princes have any dissatisfaction, just ask them to talk to me."
He stood behind Yang Chengzu with such a clear-cut stance that Gong Huaien became a little passive.
As mentioned above, he could show off his authority in front of the governor and the third minister, but in front of the old prince, he could only keep his tail between his legs and be a good man, otherwise the eunuch would bully the clan, which would be a recipe for death.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Chitose, you are a kind man, and I admire you very much.
But regarding the food, do you think this will work?
I will pay for the food for you and the other two Chitose."
"Gong Huai'en, didn't you hear clearly what I said?
I told you that my food must be handed over to the Governor's Procuratorate for disposal.
Do I need to get the approval of your guarding office to dispose of my food?"
