When the shopkeeper saw the special wooden sign, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He had only seen this wooden sign twice. The first time was on his boss's body, and the second time was now.
He picked up the wooden sign, examined it carefully, and said in a serious tone, "Miss, please wait a moment."
As he said this, he hurried to the backyard holding the wooden sign.
Wan Sanye, who looked wealthy, took a sip of hot tea and saw him coming back in a hurry. "Is the other party difficult to deal with?"
The shopkeeper didn't say anything, but handed over the wooden sign immediately.
After seeing the wooden sign, Master Wan San stood up from his seat and asked, "Where is the person who took this wooden sign?"
"In the shop."
"Walk."
Master Wan San hurried to the shop in front with the wooden sign. As soon as he entered the shop, he saw Su Yin wearing a veil and her guard Su Wuming beside her.
As soon as he came out, Su Yin looked at him in surprise.
"Fat Master!"
Master Wan San listened to the familiar voice and showed surprise, "It's really you! Girl Su."
The last three words were spoken with intimacy.
"Let's go to the back and talk."
When the shopkeeper saw that he recognized the boss, he hurriedly led the person to the back.
After arriving at the backyard, Master Wan San waved his hand and said, "Go and do your work. Don't bother me. I need to catch up with my old friend."
The fact that he could produce that wooden plaque shows that this "old friend" is of great importance.
Su Wuming stood on the edge, loyally performing his duties as his own guard.
Su Yin took off her veil, and they sat on a stone bench. Wan Sanye poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her. She picked up the cup and took a sip, "Fat Master, why are you here?"
“It’s a long story!”
Whenever this matter was mentioned, Mr. Wan San still felt a lingering fear.
His main industries are all in the southwest, but the southwest is in serious trouble due to drought and other reasons. He originally wanted to hide in the south, but the south also had problems. He had no choice but to shift his focus to the northwest.
There were not many shops opened in the northwest at the beginning, but fortunately there was still some family assets. Although it was difficult to get back on track, it was faster than starting from scratch.
"I have to thank you for reminding me. If you hadn't reminded me in time, I would have suffered heavy losses." Master Wan San was still in shock. "I withdrew the resources in Jiangnan and transferred them to the northwest."
"Didn't you say before that this corrupt dynasty will be destroyed sooner or later? If that day really comes, I'm afraid there will be no place in the world that can live in peace. At least the Northwest still has more than 200,000 Northwest Army, so perhaps it can hold out longer than other places."
After Master Wan San finished speaking, he smiled and asked, "How come you have come to Tangquan City all of a sudden, didn't you go to Shangjing City?"
"I came here to do some work. It's a coincidence that I met Fatty. I need to collect a batch of food and cotton clothes to send to the Northwest Army."
When it comes to business, Wan Sanye's smile faded and he became serious. "How much do you want?"
"150,000 koku."
After hearing this number, Wan Sanye was only slightly surprised, but not surprised, "Is this enough?"
"Of course it's not enough. I also asked Baixing Commercial Bank to deliver 150,000 shi."
"Three hundred thousand is enough to allow the Northwest Army to have a good New Year and not starve." Master Wan San stroked his chin and pondered for a while, "You bought so much food at once, even in batches, the money will be quite a lot."
Uncle Wan San knew clearly how much wealth Su Yin had. Now that he could take out so much at once, he was a little surprised again.
After being surprised, Wan Sanye suddenly thought of something, his eyes widened, "You are..."
Su Yin didn't say anything. Master Wan San gave her a thumbs up and said, "Su girl is a lucky girl."
After getting the money, the first thing he did was not to pursue pleasure, but to use it to buy food and cotton clothes for the Northwest Army. Master Wan San admired such awareness.
"If you had sent food there four months earlier, I would have been absolutely against it. Li Wei, who previously controlled the Northwest Army, was a piece of shit. He often gathered together the wealthy merchants in the Northwest and asked them for money and food. If you didn't give them, you would be constantly harassed by them."
"If Nasi knew you were rich, he would exploit you. If you send him money and food, he would not be grateful but would treat you like a fat sheep and take advantage of you."
Whenever Li Wei was mentioned, Wan Sanye gritted his teeth in hatred, which showed that he had suffered a lot at his hands.
"To be honest, when they heard that he was killed by the Darong Kingdom, you have no idea how many wealthy businessmen in the northwest were so happy that they wanted to light firecrackers."
"However, it's good now. Duke Su has taken over the Northwest Army again. With Duke Su's arrival, we can have peace in the Northwest for several years. I will also pay half of these money and food as a reward for the Northwest Army." Master Wan San said.
Su Yin knew that Mr. Wan San had suffered a lot of losses this year. Although he was rich, he earned it all himself, not by luck.
"No, I have money, how can I let you pay half?"
Master Wan San waved his hand and said, "I also sent a private message when I offered this batch of grain. If we can use this grain to establish good relations with the Northwest Army and the Suguo Public Transport, it will definitely not be a losing deal."
It's difficult to make friends with such little food and supplies, but it's good enough if you can get a good impression of them.
“That doesn’t have to be the case.”
"Yes, yes. This time I'll take a favorable boat to deliver the food."
Seeing that Master Wan San insisted, Su Yin said no more.
"Okay!"
After the matter of food and cotton clothing was handed over to the two major trading companies, it was considered a major issue that had been resolved.
"Where do you live?"
"I'll stay at Tangquan Inn for now. I'll tell you after I find a place to stay in a few days."
I was surprised to hear that Su Yin was going to stay here. "Are you planning to live here for a long time?"
"Well, I will probably live in Tangquan County in the next six months."
As for whether he would go to the capital city in half a year or continue to live in Tangquan County, it all depends on the situation in the capital city.
"I was thinking about whether to go back to the city. Now that you are here, this must be a blessed place. That's great, I will settle down here too." Master Wan San said with a smile.
"It's nice to spend the winter in Tangquan City. Soaking in the hot springs every few days is good for your health."
"Hahaha, that's right." Master Wan San asked, "I'm hosting a banquet at the Aromatics Restaurant tonight to welcome your family. I haven't seen your mother and her family for a long time."
"That will cost you the money. But I'm afraid it won't be possible these days. I'll let you know when the family is free."
Su Yin doesn't need to be so pretentious about her friendship with Fatty.
After the two chatted for a while, Su Yin stood up and said goodbye.
After coming out of the grain shop, Su Yin went to Li's grain shop, asked for some grain, told the address of tomorrow's delivery, and then returned to the inn.
When she came back, Su Baozhu and the others had not returned yet, and her father had not returned either.
At the same time, Su Xiaozhong and Su Xinguang had already found a group of craftsmen and were busy purchasing some stones.
They must build a fortress entrance on the other side of Hulu Valley.
