Su Yunhai quickly handed the merchant's documents to the soldier and secretly gave him a large bag of silver.
The soldier raised his eyebrows slightly and weighed the silver in public without any hesitation.
It felt like there was about a hundred taels of silver. I didn't expect this fat guy to be so generous.
The captain of the soldiers threw the silver to his subordinates behind him with satisfaction. Looking at the long line behind him, he asked, "Why is there such a big difference between the number of people in your caravan and the actual number of people?"
Su Yunhai nodded and bowed quickly to explain, "Master Bing, you also know how chaotic the world is now. We brought a lot of food with us. If we hadn't hired more escorts, we wouldn't have gotten this far."
The captain of the soldiers had a sneer on his face and said nothing more.
"Okay, let's go into the city quickly, and remember to bring the supplies to the government office for registration."
"Okay, soldier, we will hand them all over!" Su Yunhai put away the merchant documents and quickly led the team into the city.
The team entered the city smoothly and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they were escorted to the government office by a team of hundreds of soldiers.
...
...
The people in the government office didn't expect that such a large caravan of merchants would come this time, and they brought so many supplies!
There were more than 5,000 kilograms of grain alone, and the other pickled meats added up to 3,000 kilograms.
Not only that!
They found that there were dried vegetables and eggs in the car!
Even the mules and horses raised by these people are so strong and heroic!
These are all the supplies that their military camp is in urgent need of!
Su Yunhai was reluctant to hand over the supplies, but he couldn't enter the city without it!
But what no one expected was that all their carriages and horses were confiscated by the government.
final.
The government only gave Su Yunhai one thousand and two taels of silver.
That is to say.
The government shamelessly forcibly purchased these supplies!
Su Yunhai felt aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do.
Shen Shuli had been holding back a ball of anger in her heart for a long time.
If Shen Shuli lost this batch of supplies, she wouldn't care that much.
Anyway, these food and supplies were purchased for zero yuan.
But she felt sorry for those carriages and horses!
They were all grown by her using the spiritual vegetables, fruits, vegetables and water in the space!
A horse can be sold for at least five hundred taels of silver!
These soldiers actually seized it by force!
Shen Shuli was so angry that her gums were clenched tightly.
In that case, don't blame her for taking action.
Su Yunhai quickly led the team away.
Many villagers were very angry because those grains were their food rations!
The government actually took them all away at such a low price!
Su Yunhai knew that everyone was angry and was worried that someone with an impatient temper would cause trouble.
He quickly comforted them, "Don't worry, the soldiers also said that we can purchase supplies freely in the city."
"Let's go buy some more food now."
After hearing this, the villagers' anger subsided a little.
The team is too large.
Su Yunhai couldn't take so many people to purchase supplies, so he wanted to settle everyone first.
Seeing this, Gu Changfeng quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother Su, my Gu family's main family is in Qinzhou, why don't you let me settle everyone down?"
Su Yunhai was delighted when he heard this, and quickly asked, "Brother, can you arrange for so many people? We have quite a few people in our team."
"Yes, my Gu family is quite famous in Qinzhou. We have several farms in the suburbs, which are enough to accommodate everyone." Gu Changfeng explained with a smile.
Su Yunhai didn't expect that the Gu family was so powerful. He didn't refuse and immediately asked Gu Changfeng to lead the way.
Everything seemed calm in Qinzhou City.
There was no sense of tension or urgency of impending war.
Suburban villa.
Gu Changfeng smiled and said to Su Yunhai: "Brother Su, you can have a good rest here. This is my private residence. You can stay as long as you want. There is enough water and food. If you want to settle here, I will do my best to arrange it."
Returned to Qinzhou Prefecture safely.
Gu Changfeng's temperament has changed significantly.
Before in the team, their family of five had to rely on the protection of the Su family and did things very low-key.
Finally arriving safely in Qinzhou and returning to his home ground, Gu Changfeng was visibly relieved, and he felt much more relaxed and confident.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Gu. We also need to purchase a batch of food as soon as possible. I wonder if Brother Gu has any connections?"
Su Yunhai was not polite at all and asked immediately.
Gu Changfeng nodded and said, "I know. My Gu family also has a grain store. It's just that I haven't been back for a year, so I don't know how things are going at home."
"Why don't you guys rest in the farm for one night? I'll go home and if there's enough food, I'll send someone to deliver it to the farm."
Su Yunhai didn't expect Gu Changfeng to be so enthusiastic and thoughtful, but he didn't want to take too much advantage of the Gu family.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother Gu, the grain price is high now. I can't let you have a hard time at home. Why don't I go back with you? I will buy the grain at the current price, and I will definitely not let you suffer a loss."
Gu Changfeng didn't expect Su Yunhai to be so reasonable. He was very glad to get to know such a person.
"Brother Su, you don't have to be so polite to me. Although I'm not at home all year round, I'm the eldest son of the Gu family and I still have some say in the Gu family. Just listen to my arrangements on this matter."
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Su Yunhai stopped refusing and nodded in agreement.
After Gu Changfeng's family of five left, Su Yunhai was not idle either.
He immediately took fifty young men down the mountain to inquire about the price of food in the city.
It would be even better if we could take the opportunity to buy more food.
The others stayed in the village.
There are two wells in the village, and there is sufficient water in the wells, which shows that there is no shortage of water in Qinzhou City for the time being.
The villagers can just have some time to clean up.
Shen Shuli also washed up in her room and changed into clean, refreshing clothes that were easy to move in.
"Mom, I want to go down the mountain and take a look. The people in the military camp and the government eat in such an ugly way. I can't swallow this breath."
Shen Shuli said as she braided Shen Yuehua's hair.
Shen Yuehua also felt very sorry for that batch of food.
If the government purchased the grain according to the current market price, she could still accept it.
After all, those supplies were brought back by her daughter at the risk of her life.
How could she possibly swallow this?
But she was worried her daughter was in danger.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the government and the military had been colluding with each other for a long time.
Those supplies must be closely guarded.
Shen Yuehua was worried that her daughter was in danger.
Whenever she thought of this, her heart ached and she felt that she was still too weak.
There is no way to protect my daughter from the wind and rain, and no way to be her solid support when she is in danger.
It's their incompetence as parents!
"My daughter, don't take any risks! You are my only precious daughter, so you should always consider me more before doing anything!" Shen Yuehua's eyes were slightly red.
She wanted to stop her daughter, but she didn't know how to start, so she could only remind her in a tactful way.
Shen Shuli saw that her mother's eyes were red and knew that she was worried about her.
But she knows her limits and won't act rashly.
I will never joke about my own life!
