Chapter 4939 Where is the firewood room?
"It's not too late, if you are willing, you can take away the food in my warehouse. Don't you want to save the refugees outside the city? The food in my warehouse can completely satisfy us, as long as you let me go.
Is that okay?" Jiang Heng was really honest now.
Compared to one's own life, money is indeed something external to oneself.
If he had known this, how could he dare to offend these people for such a low-grade spiritual stone?
For ordinary people, these spiritual stones are definitely a huge fortune.
But for a monk, this amount of spiritual stone is really not much.
However, as a businessman, greed is their nature. As long as there is a profit, they will not let it go, even if it is a copper plate.
Otherwise, how could he have ended up in this situation?
Han Xue looked at Cheng Yu and had to say that the things Jiang Heng proposed were indeed quite realistic.
The most important thing is that there are so many refugees outside the city now, and they need this food very much.
Those seventy carts of food seem to be a lot, but if they are really distributed to tens of thousands of people, how much food can each person get?
Maybe it would be okay to let them have a full meal today, but it is absolutely impossible for them to take this small amount of food to other cities.
But if all the food this guy saves can be distributed to those refugees, this goal should be achieved.
"How much food do you have?" Cheng Yu asked.
"There are at least two thousand cars left, which is definitely enough to distribute to the refugees!" Seeing that the other party was really interested, Jiang Heng suddenly became excited and said quickly.
Although it was a bit heartbreaking to send out two thousand carts of food, it was worth it if it could save his life.
After all, you can still do business after the business is gone, but if the people are gone, then there is nothing.
"Where is your granary?" Cheng Yu continued to ask.
"It's not far from here, just over a mile."
"Take us there now!" Cheng Yu said.
"Heroes, there is no problem in taking you there, but can you really let me live?" Jiang Heng is not stupid either. Although the other party is indeed interested in these grains, his life is still in their hands.
.
What if they got the food but didn't plan to let him go?
So now we definitely can’t give them food, at least we need their guarantee.
"If it's true as you said, and you have enough food to help these refugees, I can spare your life." Cheng Yu said.
"But there is no basis for what you say. If you take the food but regret it, and I am now powerless, won't I be slaughtered by you?" Jiang Heng said straight to the point.
It's now time, and there's no need to beat around the bush anymore.
If you don't say it now, you may not even have the chance to say it after a while.
"What you said makes sense, but it's a pity that you are not qualified to negotiate terms with us now. Either we kill you now, or you choose to believe us and give us the food." Cheng Yu disagreed.
How could the hostages want to negotiate terms with them?
Now Jiang Heng is nothing but fish and meat, and they are Daozu. Whether to kill him or not is entirely up to them.
"You've come to this point, what else do you have to be afraid of? Even if we promise not to kill you now, if we really want to kill you later, do you think this promise will be useful?
So you'd better understand the current situation carefully. One is death without rebirth, the other is life with nine deaths, you choose one!" Han Xue said with a smile.
Jiang Heng had a grimace on his face, these people were trying to strangle him to death.
It's really like this. Even if he has negotiated terms now, if someone really wants to kill him, he still won't be able to run away.
"Okay! I choose to believe you, and I hope you can keep your promise!" Jiang Heng finally compromised.
There was no way, his life was now in someone else's hands, what could he do?
Just like what the woman in front of me said, one means a hundred deaths but no life, the other means a narrow escape.
Although a narrow escape from death is also very risky, at least there is still hope of life, and a hundred deaths without life means there is only one death and no other way.
So there is no way he would choose to die without rebirth.
These people were so powerful, but he was just an ant in front of them.
Maybe such an expert can still be honest.
"But I have agreed to your conditions, so can you ask your companions to stop?" Jiang Heng looked at his brother-in-law and the people in the city lord's mansion who seemed to be no match for that woman. While he was shocked, he couldn't help but
Somewhat worried.
This incident happened because of him, and since he had already compromised with these people, he didn't want his brother-in-law to take any more risks.
If that woman really killed her brother-in-law, how should he explain it to his sister?
"You don't seem to understand the current situation. You are exchanging food for your life. Do you think you are qualified to save them?" Cheng Yu sneered.
"You..." Jiang Heng's face changed, full of anger and unwillingness.
Although Cheng Yu's words made him angry and embarrassed, he had no way to refute.
Now that he can't even save himself, how can he save his brother-in-law and others?
"Okay, it's good that you can save your own life now, and you are still in the mood to care about others. If you had known this, why did you do it in the first place?" Lanya said.
Jiang Heng sighed, said nothing more, and led Cheng Yu and the others towards the granary with a trace of hope.
As for Coco, Cheng Yu and the others are not worried at all.
After all, Coco's strength is much stronger than these people, and he has already broken away from the level of being able to reverse the situation of the battle if he has strength in numbers.
In this situation, the only ones who really have to worry are Fang Yuan and the others.
Sure enough, as Jiang Heng said, they arrived at a mansion just over a mile away.
"This is it, all my food is in this mansion!" Jiang Heng said, pointing to the mansion in front of him.
"You can do it. You actually use such a big mansion to hide food. It seems that you have taken advantage of the people's wealth!" Seeing that the mansion was so big and there were many people guarding it, Cheng Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
I thought it was really just a warehouse, but I didn't expect it to be such a big house.
"The hero is joking. Although Jiang is greedy for a little fortune occasionally, these properties are all hard-earned from serious business." Jiang Heng said with some embarrassment.
"If you were really a serious businessman, I would believe what you said. It's a pity that you have no credibility in my eyes. As a monk, you can even deceive the common people. How do you think I can respect your words?
Letter?" Cheng Yu said with a sarcastic look on his face.
It is normal for monks to do business. Although monks can do fasting after reaching a certain level, most monks will not actually do fasting.
Unless in some special circumstances, there is really no way to eat, so I choose to go without food.
Just like Cheng Yu, not only does he not live without food, but he also loves delicious food.
And there are many people like Cheng Yu in the world of cultivation.
In addition, in the world of cultivation, almost every city has a cultivation restaurant, and the food and wine inside are specially prepared for monks.
Therefore, rice merchants like Jiang Heng not only do business for ordinary people, but also do business for monks.
However, compared to ordinary people, doing business with monks is obviously more profitable.
Just like this time, Cheng Yu took out hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones, but only took out more than 70 carts of grain. The profit from this was simply unimaginable.
For Jiang Heng, this is already a big business.
After all, business is accumulated over time, and it is impossible to make a fortune just from one business.
Therefore, the warehouse Jiang Hengguang used to store grain was such a big mansion. This shows that this guy cannot be a serious businessman at all.
But whether Jiang Heng is a serious businessman or not is no longer important to Cheng Yu.
The important thing is that as long as he can get enough food to distribute to the refugees, his goal will be achieved.
Seeing what Cheng Yu said, Jiang Heng stopped explaining.
This mansion was not originally used for living, so Jiang Heng not only converted all the houses in the mansion into warehouses, but also built many new houses to store grain.
Therefore, although this is a mansion, it is actually a granary.
Every time Jiang Heng opened a granary and Cheng Yu walked around in it, all the food inside disappeared. Jiang Heng's heart was filled with blood.
Although if these grains were exchanged for spiritual stones, there wouldn't be many spiritual stones, but after all, these grains were slowly saved by myself.
Now that Cheng Yu has taken it away with a wave of his hand, no matter how cheap the food is, he will feel heartbroken.
In this way, Jiang Heng took Cheng Yu around the house, and all the warehouses became clean.
Jiang Heng felt so bitter in his heart.
Just for the sake of those more than one hundred spiritual stones, not only did not earn the more than one hundred spiritual stones, but also got a lot of spiritual stones. This business was really a failure.
"My hero, you have taken away all the food I saved. Can you let me go now?" Jiang Heng said with a smile.
If you think about it carefully, it is quite a bargain to exchange such a small amount of food for your own life.
At worst, I'll spend some spiritual stones to buy some food and fill this place up when the time comes.
"Is this the end? Where is that place over there? Haven't we gone there yet?" Cheng Yu said, pointing to a courtyard gate.
"This... that's the woodshed in the backyard. There's no food you want anymore!" Jiang Heng was stunned and quickly explained.
"Woodshed? Your house is just a granary, and you don't cook, so why do you need a woodshed? Besides, if it's really a woodshed, why are you so nervous?" Han Xue said.
"These... heroes, there really isn't the food you want there. And the food you have taken now is enough to distribute to the refugees, isn't that enough?" Jiang Heng
said.
"That's not necessarily true. It's not easy for us to come here. We have to see what good things you have hidden there. Are you going to take us to see it yourself, or should we go see it ourselves?" Cheng Yu sneered.
