hehe!

Is this scared?

Jiang Chen felt a secret joy in his heart and said politely: "If the officials do not have good words and try to protect them, how can they know that the officials are dissatisfied?"

"dissatisfied?"

"We are now all idle and obedient, so how can we dissatisfied the officials?"

Han Bai, Qian Jiming and others looked at each other, and they all showed confusion, and they suspected that Jiang Chen was intimidating them.

"snort!"

Jiang Chen suddenly turned cold and stood up and said, "Since you all have this idea, then go to Tianzhu to take your son home. The official has nothing to say!"

"Stop the anger!"

"Please calm down, please say something, don't be anxious!"

Everyone smiled and held Jiang Chen, while winking at Xue Kunshan.

Xue Kunshan had no choice but to speak and persuade: "Good time, the so-called will of heaven is unpredictable. If they really violate any taboos, you must give it a little more!"

"Yes, yes, please give me some advice."

"We will never forget the kindness that Lord Jiang has given me!"

Han Bai and others looked flattering, and Jiang Chen's attitude made them feel very uneasy.

"You really don't know?"

Jiang Chen's face was incredible.

"I don't know, what's wrong with us?"

Everyone looked confused.

"The conquest of Liao requires food and grass, and pacifying Jiangnan also requires food and grass. But you collect and stock up on a large scale when the autumn harvest is about to be around. Don't you think it's too abnormal? What do you mean?

Do you don’t want the officials to take back Yanyun’s land, or do you want to see a joke on the court? Or are you planning to be a traitor?”

Jiang Chen's face turned solemn and he asked questions continuously.

"Ah? From the Dragon Meritor?"

Han Bai and others were so scared that their faces turned pale, and finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

He hurriedly shouted: "I am wronged!"

"This is really a huge injustice!"

"We just heard that after the chaos in Jiangnan and the promotion of distilled liquor, the prices of grain will definitely rise sharply, so we bought and hoarded grain."

"There is absolutely no other intention! As for the heroes in the dragon, I dare not think about it even if I beat him to death!"

Everyone shouted for the wrongdoing and tried to explain to Jiang Chen.

"You said to me that it is useless. This is the original words of the official family. If you want to explain, go to the official family. Otherwise, do you really think that a fifth-rank official can be the master of the Heavenly Prison?

Alas! The officials also know the hardships they have!”

After Jiang Chen said that, he sat back with a depressed look on his face.

"How could such a big misunderstanding come about?"

"What should I do?"

Everyone turned around in a hurry, looked at Jiang Chen and said, "Mr. Jiang, you must help me this time. I will only follow your lead in the Royal Chamber of Commerce in the future, and I will listen to you in everything!"

“How to help?

Will you release someone directly? Those who don’t know think that the officials are afraid of you.

Don't let it go, the official family doesn't want to betray you.

How do you guys tell me how to help?”

Jiang Chen looked embarrassed and glanced at everyone and said, "You are all people who have been in the court. They were fanned by a few words and said something everywhere.

The officials are not afraid of being scolded for a few words, but they are afraid that the officials think you are pointing at the mulberry and scolding!”

When Han Bai and others heard this, they all looked embarrassed and ashamed, and stood up and bowed to Jiang Chen solemnly: "Master Jiang, this time we judge the gentleman with the heart of a villain!"

"We apologize to you!"

"We are willing to donate the food stored in our family and support the imperial court to quell the rebellion and conquer Liao. We also ask you to make good words for us and others in front of the official family!"

"Yes, in addition to that, we are willing to donate military pay. We only ask Lord Jiang for help to eliminate this huge misunderstanding for us, otherwise we will be unable to sleep or eat in the future!"

Even the dignified King Qiong and Duke Cao were punished, and Han Bai and others did not think that Song Huizong did not dare to attack them.

"Everyone, please don't give up on the gift. You are really a slaughter in this way!"

Jiang Chen stood up and helped him back, pretended to think, "Everyone, I'm afraid it's still inappropriate!"

"inappropriate?"

"What else does Lord Jiang need me to do?"

"It's okay to say something! I will never refuse what I can do!"

Han Bo and others thought Jiang Chen was going to take the opportunity to quarrel.

"Don't misunderstand everyone."

Jiang Chen shook his head laughingly and said, "This is what the officials think. If you really ask you to donate grain for free, you will lose too much; and the other hand, the reputation of the official family is not good, and it is easy to be said by people with ulterior motives to take hostages and extort money.

Therefore, the officials believed that the best way to do this was to collect grain from you at the current market price.

In this way, not only will the court solve the problem of insufficient food and grass, but you can also make some surplus and look good in each other's face. Wouldn't it be cheap?"

"Mr. Jiang, do you take this seriously?"

"Will the official be willing to pay?"

Han Bai and others immediately turned to joy and looked at Jiang Chen with anticipation.

Jiang Chen bowed to the direction of the palace and said, "The official family is a wise king, don't speculate without authorization. If you really want your money, just search the house directly. Why do you need to be so troublesome?

Don't worry, the official will make this happen for you."

"well!"

"I'll thank you Lord Jiang!"

"If this matter is done, we will not forget Lord Jiang's kindness."

Han Bai, Qian Jiming and others both showed kind and grateful smiles to Jiang Chen.

"Since your family has joined the Royal Chamber of Commerce, we are our own people, and it is our duty to watch over each other. You don't need to be polite."

Jiang Chen waved his hand and said cautiously: "But as the chairman of the Royal Chamber of Commerce, I have a saying today to remind you that you should try to keep the business in grain and salt as little as possible in the future, otherwise you will regret it too late!"

"kindness?"

"Mr. Jiang, how can you explain this?"

Everyone looked at Jiang Chen with a look of surprise.

"The price of salt will definitely drop sharply in the next year! As for food, you personally understand it. This is all about it, whether you believe it or not depends on your wishes!"

After saying that, Jiang Chen picked up the teacup and tasted the tea.

When Emperor Huizong of Song promised to let him quell the rebellion and rule over Jiangnan, he had the intention of building salt fields on the beach to bring down the high salt prices so that everyone could afford cheap salt.

The reason for revealing the words in advance is not only to better trust and cooperate with these aristocratic families in the future, but also to be unable to blame these people once they lose money, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"Of course we can trust Lord Guo Jiang!"

"With you and the Royal Chamber of Commerce, are we still worried that we will not make any money? Why do we have to do that unhappy business for the government?"

"Ha ha……"

Han Bai and others said it nicely, but they were skeptical. They could accept it if they didn't do grain business, but salt was a huge profit-making industry, so he was reluctant to give up.

Qian Jiming looked thoughtful when he thought of the large amount of green salt transported by Li Yan from Xixia.

When Jiang Chen saw the expressions of everyone, he knew that many people had not listened, but he had no intention of continuing to persuade him.

He reiterated: "I want to notify you of another thing. Many places in the Song Dynasty have abundant wild fruits, but due to inconvenience in transportation, they eventually rotted on the trees..."
