Chapter 660 The Master Appreciates You Very Much
"Test...test me?"
What does this mean?
This means that he did not obey orders and continued to cooperate with Shen Yuan privately. Is that correct?
"Yes, this batch of grain is precious. How could the master let you terminate the cooperation? Moreover, Shen Yuan has now become the commander of the army, and is even more of a target that the master wants to win over. Mr. Liu, you did the right thing this time. The master appreciates you very much."
The man in black was full of admiration and praised him generously.
Liu Qian's heart suddenly broke again.
What kind of test is this?
Are you sure it's not scary?
He had never heard of a master testing his subordinates in this way.
Are the nobles in the capital so unconventional?
I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat again.
As luck would have it, he actually did the right thing.
No matter what, it seems that my life is saved?
"Your Excellency is too kind. I have only been doing business for a few years and have some judgment..."
Liu Qian wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, immediately forced a smile and responded modestly.
"Mr. Liu is such a smart man, his future is limitless. Now that the master has remembered you, he will certainly summon you soon. Since the grain has been bought, the master wants to transport the grain away as soon as possible."
The man in black painted another big picture and said nothing more, getting down to business.
Liu Qian felt happy. Was he going to meet his master?
I don’t know who the master is?
"Sir, I don't know which master you are. I am very nervous, but I also want to meet the master and see his beauty."
Liu Qian tested.
The man in black pretended to be profound and said:
"Master, it is invaluable. It is a treasure that can reach the sky. You saw the jade pendant last time, and you must have understood that the master is low-key and wants to do business in secret. If Mr. Liu can handle this matter well, his future will definitely be bright."
This means that you are not qualified to know the master's identity now, but I can tell you that the master has a noble status.
How could Liu Qian not understand?
As a merchant, it is not easy for him to meet an important person.
However, after hearing what he said, and thinking about the royal jade pendant I saw last time, I was also shocked.
Could it be that he is working for His Majesty?
After all, only Your Majesty can connect to heaven.
I heard that the national treasury is empty. The court has been troubled by the floods in the south recently and can't even raise relief grain.
Your Majesty is not trying to make a secret profit and fill your private treasury in the name of raising disaster relief grain.
Liu Qian felt that he must have discovered the truth.
I couldn't help but get excited.
"Thank you for your kindness, Master. I will do my best and will not hesitate to die."
Liu Qian bowed respectfully.
"Okay, Mr. Liu, please prepare. In two days, we will find a caravan to pretend to be merchants buying grain and take it away. To be on the safe side, we will also forge a sales contract."
The man in black asked Liu Qian to sit down and began to discuss the matter.
Liu Qian was so happy that he waited until the discussion was over and the man in black had left. Then he suddenly remembered something and his face suddenly darkened.
He has signed a contract with a merchant named Wu today!
Although it was only a small amount of food, it was signed!
Moreover, the price offered by his master for the business he negotiated was very low, and he would almost lose half of it if he sold it!
Not only did he have to pay most of the compensation, he also had to pay Mr. Wu a penalty of one thousand taels for breach of contract.
Liu Qian chased out, but where could he see the man in black?
Even if he caught up, what could he say?
They said the price you offered was too low and they couldn’t sell it.
The fact that people give you some money instead of just taking it away shows that they think highly of you.
Even if they really took him away by force, he would have nothing to say.
Liu Qian touched his forehead and broke out in a cold sweat again, feeling nervous.
Although he lost most of his family fortune, it would still be good if he could win over a powerful nobleman.
Is this business a loss or a profit?
For a moment, he was a little confused.
I always feel like something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on it.
"Master, what's wrong? Master..."
At this time, the woman who was knocked unconscious on the ground woke up, also looking confused. When she saw Liu Qian, she immediately covered the back of her head and stood up delicately.
Liu Qian was feeling a little annoyed and pushed her away.
"Shut up about what happened today and go back to rest."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
It is good to curry favor with a noble and gain his appreciation, but he still feels heartbroken when he thinks of the money.
He needed to go back and have a drink to calm his nerves.
Take inventory of your assets again, sell what needs to be sold, and pay back the money to the bank first.
......
After the two men in black left, one of them patted the other on the shoulder.
"The master also has something to tell you. This is the task he gave you. Please be sure to complete it."
After saying that, he took out a note and showed it to the man.
The other man in black, who had been silent all this time, took a look in the dim light outside.
When he saw the content, his eyes flashed slightly, and finally he took a fire starter and burned the note clean.
"Got it, please rest assured, Master."
After just these two sentences, the two people dispersed in two directions, one to the east and one to the west.
.......
The next day, Shen Yuan received news that two men in black had come to see Liu Qian.
But they did not hear the content of their conversation.
Shen Yuan already had a guess in his mind, so he asked them to pay close attention to the movements in Liu Qian's warehouse. If his guess was correct, the grain would be sold in the next two days.
"Your Majesty actually gave the disaster relief in the south to my third brother?"
Su Wanwan read the letter from the capital and a hint of worry flashed in her eyes.
Disaster relief may face many problems. If you are not careful, it will not be a credit but a failure.
Especially disasters like floods.
Not only do we need to provide relief to the victims, but we also need to drain floodwaters and carry out water conservancy construction.
If you don't do it well in any way, it may become a handle for others to report you.
"Don't worry, Third Brother is capable and steady. This disaster relief is also an opportunity given to him by His Majesty."
Shen Yuan turned around to comfort his wife.
Su Wanwan naturally knew this, but after all, he was her own brother, and she would not allow any mistakes.
"Well, before he comes, I'll search Baidu in the next few days to see how disaster relief and water conservancy projects were carried out in history."
Su Wanwan also calmed down.
Of course a good man should make great achievements and should not give up just because it is dangerous.
All she could do was write a few more suggestions and precautions for him.
Fortunately, she now has access to the Internet and Baidu is full of information, so she can sort it out.
"That's fine, but Third Brother's Kung Fu isn't that good, so we need to prepare some life-saving items for him."
Shen Yuan thought of things like lighters, flashlights, stun batons, and of course medicines.
Su Wanwan nodded:
"Then let's prepare in the next few days and wait for the third brother to come."
The couple did what they said. Su Wanwan began to search and organize the disaster relief essentials and measures of various dynasties, as well as the things that needed attention.
