Chapter 495: The More Capable, the More Work
Sheng Ze's words made Li Hezhou ponder, and Shen Qingqian also looked at him.
So, is Shengze now in power in the Hubei North Army? Liang Cheng doesn't need to agree on these things. He can decide whether to cooperate with Li Hezhou.
If that's the case, then she won't be polite.
Shen Qingqian also had her own little calculations. The Shen family had been relegated to a pre-liberation era in the house-raiding and exile last year, and all their family assets had been destroyed. If she hadn't used accelerated fertilizer, they might have starved to death long ago.
In this situation, Shen Qingqian must of course make plans for her own family.
Since Li Hezhou came to her door himself, she would feel guilty about using the accelerated fertilizer if she didn't make some money from it.
While thinking, Li Hezhou spoke.
"Brother, are you sure that General Liang is willing to let our Li family join the Ebei Army's caravan?"
He had never met Sheng Ze before and didn't know his identity.
In order to make things easier and because of Sheng Ze's performance in the army over the past few times, Liang Cheng promoted him to the position of captain of a thousand men.
In the Jin Dynasty, the captain of a thousand men had a nice title, called the Vanguard General.
When Shen Xiao heard Li Hezhou ask this, he smiled and introduced: "Mr. Li, Cheng San is the newly appointed Vanguard General. He is very influential in front of the general."
The key point of his words lies in the latter sentence: There are many vanguard generals in an army, but only a few of them can have a say in front of the commander-in-chief.
Li Hezhou understood immediately and looked at Shengze with shining eyes, "So it's General Cheng, I'm so sorry!"
He complimented Sheng Ze before continuing, "General Cheng, as long as you can help our Li family enter the Ebei Army's caravan, the conditions are negotiable."
Sheng Ze raised his eyebrows slightly. This Li Hezhou was really greedy. At the beginning he was talking about the Fairy in the Clouds, and now he is talking about the Li family. These are two different concepts.
But it doesn't matter. If the Hubei Northern Army wants to make money, it will inevitably have to deal with major merchants. The Li family is the richest family in the capital and has a lot of resources. If they do business in an honest way, they can be a good partner.
"The general has handed the affairs of the caravan over to Miss Shen Liu. If the Li family wants to join the caravan, they can talk to her." Sheng Ze changed the subject and looked at Shen Qingqian.
Shen Qingqian was slightly stunned, but quickly reacted, "Mr. Li, this matter is still under preparation. How about I go to Yunzhongxian to discuss it with you in two days?"
It turns out that Shengze and the others suddenly came back today because of this incident.
But didn't she say before that she didn't want to get involved in these things? It seems I have to ask her about it later.
Li Hezhou was a little disappointed when he heard that he couldn't be sure now, but with Shen Qingqian's words, his trip was not in vain. He sat for a while and then said goodbye and left.
After he left, Shen Xiao and his brothers also left the main room, but the door was wide open, allowing Sheng Ze and Shen Qingqian to talk alone in the room.
"Don't blame me. It was Uncle Liang who insisted on handing the matter over to you." After there were only two people left in the room, Sheng Ze spoke quickly with a strong desire to survive.
What Shen Qingqian wanted to say was blocked. Thinking of Liang Cheng's temper, she lost her temper and could only say unhappily: "He has good ideas, but didn't he think about how tired I am?"
She has too many things on her hands. She will be exhausted if she continues like this.
No, she needs to train some helpers quickly.
"Those who are capable should work harder." Sheng Ze said with a low laugh.
He knew that Shen Qingqian was fully capable of doing all these things, but she was right, having too many things to do was indeed tiring, so he decided not to tell her about the other thing.
Shen Qingqian was planning to train more people, and had no idea that Sheng Ze had silently taken on a big trouble for her.
