Chapter 2067 Food Matters
Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "We are a family, why should we be so different? As long as you treat Taotao well and don't let her down, we will be satisfied!"
Shao Yunduan nodded: "That's right."
Zhao Shu immediately said, "Of course I will treat Taotao well! I will never let Taotao down in this life, otherwise Fifth Brother and Fifth Sister-in-law will just deal with me!"
Qiao Xuan and others couldn't help laughing.
Tao Tao felt embarrassed to scold him, so she whispered, "Please stop talking!"
Could you please change this habit of saying whatever you want?
Now that Zhao Shu and Tao Tao had arrived, Shao Yunduan sent someone to the provincial capital of Yuzhang to invite Le Zhengxiao over so that they could discuss the food issue together.
Le Zhengxiao came over soon, and the three parties discussed the matter together. Zhao Shu certainly didn't have any objection at all - as long as Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan agreed, he would only applaud without even thinking about the reasons.
Le Zhengxiao thought about it for a moment, thinking about his family's growing business and the existing trade routes to the northwest, he thought this could be done.
In fact, in the past few years, through the relationship between Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, the Le Zheng family has established a connection with the Ding Xiang couple, and the business in the northwest has expanded a lot. The northwest business line is of great importance to the Le Zheng family.
Now that the Northwest Army has a need, it is even more impossible for the Le Zheng family to stay out of it.
Even if the Northwest Army can't afford the money for a while, it doesn't matter. As long as they continue to facilitate the trip, the rewards they can get from this convenience are something that money can't buy...
So they decided that after Le Zhengxiao and Zhao Shu went back, they would start buying grain. It would be best not to make too much noise about this matter, and it would be best if it could be done secretly without alerting anyone.
After the grain is purchased, it is transported to Anze Prefecture in the name of other commodities.
Anyway, Zhao Shu and Le Zhengxiao already have business dealings with Anzezhou City, so they won't attract too much attention.
No one among the people would pay attention to what goods they were transporting, whether the quantity was too large, or whether the frequency was too high.
Perhaps some merchants would notice something, but no one would be so tactless as to make a fuss.
The prefect today is not the same prefect as in the past. He is a bully in Anze Prefecture whom no one dares to mess with!
Le Zhengxiao stayed here for three days and left with some goods.
Zhao Shu and Tao Tao had finally come here, so they were reluctant to leave. Especially after hearing that Xiao Qi had just left a few days ago, Tao Tao was even more upset, wishing she had come earlier.
Unfortunately, it was too late to make it now. Even if she and Zhao Shu rushed back to Shaoding Village, it might not be too late.
Since I don't have time to see Xiaoqi, I might as well stay with my fifth brother and his wife for a while.
Zhao Shu only sent his men back to Jiangnan to purchase grain. He had enough manpower at his disposal, so this matter did not require him to go out in person.
Zhao Shu comforted Taotao again, saying that it was not easy to see Seventh Brother. At worst, they could go to the northwest for a stroll after a while.
It just so happened that he had never been to the Northwest. He heard that the scenery of the Northwest is unique compared to that of the Central Plains and the Yangtze River Delta. The feeling of vastness, desolation, vastness of the sky and the earth is shocking. He also wanted to go there to feel the shock!
Taotao couldn't help laughing.
Qiao Xuan felt a little envious when she saw this. Taotao in their family was so lucky. Zhao Shu was not fussy about small details, but was never confused about big things. There were no constraints at home, so the two of them could go wherever they wanted, right?
At least she can't.
