Chapter 279 Professional Extortion



"Of course, as the old saying goes, peace is the most precious thing, and we in Dayuan don't want to go to war.

This prince came here naturally to solve the problem.

But no matter what, all the businesses dare not come, and I have no choice.

You can't just tie them up, right?"

Ye shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

"From what I know, Your Highness is a genius in business. The business you run is very large, even spread all over the world.

You alone can supply enough goods." The barbarian envoy knew Yuye very well, and with just a little investigation, he knew Yuye's business was very large.

"So you guys want to do business with me! That's no problem!

But this prince has a rule when doing business, that is, reputation comes first and payment comes second."

"That's no problem. As long as we have the goods, we won't miss your money!"

Ye's heart was already blossoming with joy.

"We'll arrange a time later and trade here! But we can negotiate the price first. Give me the list of goods you need and I'll prepare it for you immediately."

I originally thought that this negotiation would be very difficult, but I didn't expect him to agree so readily.

The barbarian envoys were a little bit unbelievable.

I even wondered if there was a trap.

He hadn't even prepared a list of what he needed.

"Wait a moment, I'll give you the cargo list tomorrow!"

"Okay, if you have nothing else to say, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

"Hey, let's make a deal!"

The barbarian envoys brought their men into the camp, which was still a little unbelievable.

He asked his men, "Do you think there's something fishy going on? They just cut off our trade routes and stopped trading with us.

But the Sixth Prince simply agreed to supply the goods, and I always feel a little uneasy."

"Didn't they say that payment is for goods? I don't think they can play tricks on me."

“As long as we bring all the troops, if they don’t deliver the goods, we can arrest them all.

There are no tricks whatsoever.”

"That makes sense! As long as you don't give them money first, you won't be fooled.

Send someone to inquire about the list of missing goods immediately and make an appointment as soon as possible.

Many goods are already in short supply, so we must not allow any chaos." The barbarian envoy quickly instructed his men to immediately go to the major tribes to collect statistics.

After just over half a day, I had already compiled a part of the list.

Delivered as quickly as possible.

Some tribes are already extremely short of supplies, especially salt and tea, which will seriously affect their normal life once they are gone.

There is no room for delay.

The barbarian envoy quickly provided the list to Ye.

“This is only a partial list. Some other tribes are so far away that it is impossible to return within a day.

Prepare the goods according to this list first and send them over as quickly as possible.

I'll give you the list of goods you need later."

Ye didn't expect the other party to be so anxious, and he felt even happier.

The more anxious the other party is, the easier it is for them to raise the price.

Ye looked at the cargo list seriously and found that many items could not be delayed.

In addition to salt and tea, there are actually some medicinal herbs.

These are life-saving things.

Ye immediately said: "There is no problem shipping these goods over, but the transportation here and there also requires permission from the government.

It will take at least half a month."

The barbarian envoy almost lost his temper on the spot: "How is this possible? For you Dayuan, these goods are easy to purchase.

And with the highway, the speed of delivery is very fast. If we work as fast as possible, it can be delivered within five days."

Yuye pretended to be very embarrassed and sighed, saying, "You don't know this. Due to disasters in many places over the years, the production of salt, tea, and medicinal materials has been greatly reduced.

In order to ensure that the lives of the people were not affected, all of them were centrally allocated by the court.

It's not something you can buy easily just by having money.

In other words, my identity is quite special, and many officials will give me some face, so I dare to take on such a big business.

If it were any other store, I wouldn't even be able to buy anything."

Even if they knew that Ye was talking nonsense, under the current circumstances, only Ye dared to do business with them.

All other channels for transporting goods have been cut off. Even if the goods are transported by sea or land, distant water cannot quench the immediate thirst.

He could only lower his posture and beg desperately: "Everyone knows that you, the Sixth Prince, have great magical powers. No matter what kind of problem is difficult for you, you can solve it.

As long as the urgently needed supplies can be delivered as soon as possible, I guarantee your help will be indispensable."

"It seems that you are really anxious. I do have a way, but the cost is a bit high." After thinking for a moment, he spoke.

The barbarian envoy immediately became interested and said quickly, "What's the solution?"

"I know there's a shipment of military supplies coming, and my caravan is also responsible for a portion of it.

The garrison commanders here are all very familiar to me.

As long as I ask, I can take out some supplies and sell them to you first.

We will make up for it to them in due time later.”

"That's fine, let's do it! I know His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince can definitely handle it."

"Don't be too happy yet, moving military supplies is no small matter.

Who would be willing to take such a risk if they don’t have any other reasons?”

Ye said coldly.

How could the barbarian envoy not know that this was a trick to blackmail him, but if the situation was stronger than him, he could only endure it.

"As long as there's stock, it's fine. Just name a price!"

Ye thought for a moment and quoted a price for each item.

The barbarian envoy was so angry that he could no longer sit still before he had even finished listening.

"You're not even supplying goods, you're simply asking for exorbitant prices!

Even if the defending general wanted to gain something from it, the price was too high, more than three times the current price.

Our tribe only relies on herding for a living, how can we afford it?

You are blackmailing me, blatant blackmail!"

Ye took a sip of tea slowly and said, "Why are you so angry? Business is supposed to be negotiated, and it's voluntary on both sides.

I'm not forcing you to buy it.

Since you think it's expensive, then just don't buy it.

I will also prepare it as soon as possible. Although the supply is slower, the price is more cost-effective.

Someone is coming, please show him off!"

The barbarian envoy was so furious that he really wanted to chop Ye to death with a knife.

But Ye is protected by several experts, if he dares to take action.

I'm afraid he would have been killed before he even drew his knife.

He could only suppress the anger in his heart and continue the negotiation: "Your Highness's price is too high. Our business is a long-term business. You can't leave us no chance to survive, right?

It should be cheaper!"

Ye shook his head: "This is not up to me alone! Do you think only the highest commander can make the decision?

If you want to do this kind of thing, you have to take care of everything.

If someone gets in trouble and starts to provoke me, the consequences will be disastrous."
