Chapter 265 Purple Girl retreats again and again(1/2)
Qin Shi: Under One Person Chapter 265: The purple girl retreats again and again
After Wei Zhuang returned to Zilanxuan, he told Zinu the terrible news that all the food had been burned by Tianze's gang.
Zi Nu had already lost her sleep, had changed her clothes, and had been waiting for the news.
However, what awaited was bad news. Even with Zi Nu's mind, her body was shaken and she almost lost her balance.
Zi Nu hated Tian Ze and his group and gritted her teeth with hatred.
I never expected that Tianze's group would actually have a mantis stalking the cicada, followed by the oriole. They were really a group of poisonous snakes hiding in the darkness, and they were also a group of lunatics.
The biggest enemy of Tianze's group is Ye Mu, followed by Han Wangan, and thirdly the powerful officials who were in power at that time, and Liusha is not ranked at all.
In addition to being a Korean force, Liusha has no grudges against Tianze and his gang. Just because they are Korean forces, they will retaliate indiscriminately?
There is no distinction between priorities and making enemies everywhere. It’s simply mindless!
Zi Nu cursed and complained about Tianze in her heart, but no matter how much she scolded, she could not change the status quo, and she would eventually return to reality.
Fortunately, Zinu, like Wei Zhuang, was not an ordinary person after all, and she quickly regained her composure.
Everything else is useless. The top priority now is how to raise enough food to win the bet and tide over the difficulties!
After Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu discussed for a while, they immediately split up.
Wei Zhuang was personally responsible for notifying Li Kai, Han Fei, Zhang Liang, and Zi Nu were responsible for welcoming Cheng F.
As Li Kai was Zuo Sima, he naturally had an official residence, so it was impossible for him to live in Zilanxuan.
At this time, Xinzheng has a curfew. Logically speaking, people are not allowed to run around, but curfews have always restricted ordinary people, not powerful officials.
If the curfew really could restrain powerful officials, Zilanxuan would have closed down long ago.
Wei Zhuang put on his clothes and boots, and instead of using the slow carriage, he directly used Qinggong to drive.
Zi Nu rode a carriage engraved with the Sili logo to the south of the city.
Sili is responsible for supervising the military and political affairs of the capital. Even if he ignores the curfew, knows the law and breaks the law, and gets a one-level penalty, it will be difficult for Wei Zhuang to be labeled as an official.
If the soldiers in charge of the curfew dared to stop this carriage and were targeted by Wei Zhuang, who was the Sili, they would be doomed.
Because in an environment like South Korea, it is impossible for the officers and soldiers in charge of the curfew to be clean. A careful investigation will reveal all their old facts.
I am afraid of taking everything seriously.
The middle and lower-level bureaucrats in the capital have their own rules for survival, and they know how to turn a blind eye and close one eye. Otherwise, they will easily get involved in the struggle for no reason, and they will die without knowing how...
Therefore, Zi Nu's carriage arrived at the gate of Cheng F's mansion smoothly.
Zi Nu opened the door curtain, and Cheng F, who was standing at the gate, waved his hand and said, "Zi Nu, there is no need to get out of the car."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng F's figure moved and flashed from the steps in front of the door to the carriage as if teleporting. The terrifying speed startled the coachman, giving him the feeling of encountering a ghost.
"Let's go.
"
"Mr. Cheng doesn't have any subordinates?"
"I won't take it with me anymore. After we discuss it, I will take a rest at Zilanxuan. They will naturally come to pick me up at noon tomorrow."
"I'm really sorry for disturbing Mr. Cheng's rest."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
"Actually, with my level of cultivation, it doesn't matter if I don't rest. I just have to develop a habit."
As Cheng F spoke, he bent down and got into the carriage. Zi Nu retreated to the side of the carriage and opened the door curtain for Cheng F.
"I have heard everything reported from below."
"Since it's a matter of guarding food and it's of such high importance, you should make it clear to me in advance."
"If I had known that it was such an important task, not to mention sending more manpower, I would have at least sent experts to take charge."
"The manpower is lost and things haven't been done yet, which makes me lose face."
Cheng F pretended to complain, his words implying dissatisfaction with Quicksand's excessive secrecy.
This shows that he doesn't trust him very much, although Liusha is right not to trust him...
"Hey, why are Zinu and I complaining like this? Han Fei and Wei Zhuang must be the ones who finally make the decision."
"That's all. Considering the dangerous situation you are facing, I have nothing to argue with."
Even though she said this, Zi Nu still sensed dissatisfaction from the fact that the couple called Han Fei and Wei Zhuang by their first names.
Naturally, Zi Nu could not follow Cheng F to complain about Han Fei and Wei Zhuang, but she had to find a way to eliminate Cheng F's dissatisfaction. Otherwise, if Liusha needed help in the future, he might receive a perfunctory response.
"We were too careless."
"I didn't expect that Tianze's group, which disappeared without a trace, would actually be lurking in the city of Xinzheng. They have been keeping an eye on all the forces in Xinzheng and secretly causing trouble."
"What Miss Purple Girl said makes sense."
"The Tianze gang is really haunting. They are everywhere. Everyone should be more careful in the future."
Cheng F's face was not red and his heart was not beating. He continued to complain. He had no consciousness of the mastermind behind the scenes and no sense of shame.
"Mr. Cheng is right."
At this point, the carriage fell into silence. Cheng F found that there was no trace of pink on Zi Nu's face, and she looked more clear and elegant than before, and her temperament had changed a lot.
Of course, this was not the time to make fun of her, and there was no need to think about the bad mood Zi Nu was in right now.
To make fun of someone at this time is really devoid of emotional intelligence and expressionless.
"All the food has been burned. Is there anything you can do to make up for it?"
Zi Nu shook her head and said: "Not yet, so I invited Mr. Cheng to help think of some solutions, and let's brainstorm together."
"Can you still buy food from Wei?"
"Disaster."
"Even if Wei is willing to sell it, Liusha doesn't have enough money."
Hearing this, Zi Nu suddenly frowned.
If you don’t have enough money, you can’t buy food even if you have channels to buy it. It’s impossible for others to pay for it on credit, right?
The money in Liusha's hands is a drop in the bucket in terms of the market price of food. If it is not higher than the market price, it is impossible for others to sell it to you.
Everyone knows that Nanyang is suffering from a drought. If we hope that others will not take advantage of the situation, it is better to hope that time will go back.
Han Fei took Honglian to Wei State. Through the relationship with Queen Mother Leling, the price of food was still high.
The most important thing is that time is running out, and this is the most important thing!
The bet lasted only ten days, six days had passed, and there were at most four days left in Quicksand.
It is extremely difficult to raise enough food to provide relief to the victims and suppress food prices in such a short period of time.
Now Zi Nu only needs to rely on everyone's ingenuity to come up with a solution.
"I do have some relationships with some grain merchants in Qin, but the relationship is not good enough to allow us to get credit."
"The rules of the Qin State are very strict. Those big grain merchants all have backers, and it is impossible to use special means to threaten them."
"With my wisdom, after much deliberation, you have only two ways to go."
Upon hearing this, the purple girl's frown disappeared, and her purple eyes looked at Cheng F with radiant eyes, feeling both expectant and anxious in her heart.
Both she and Wei Zhuang are at their wits' end. You actually have two options. Is it true?
"Appreciate further details."
"Oops, when I got up in the middle of the night, my neck and shoulders felt a little stiff."
Cheng F didn't answer immediately. He seemed to be a little uncomfortable and twisted his neck and muttered to himself.
How could the smart purple girl not understand Cheng F's thoughts? She bit her pink lips lightly and thought to herself that this was taking advantage of the situation.
However, this act of taking advantage of others is not offensive or embarrassing. After all, it is just a massage on the neck and shoulders.
"It's our fault for disturbing Mr. Cheng's rest. I know some massage. Why don't you relax Mr. Cheng's muscles and bones?"
Cheng F got the advantage and still behaved, so why did he say: "Is this appropriate?"
Zi Nu couldn't help it anymore, gave Cheng F a fierce look, and scolded: "Hey, don't go too far."
"Haha, I'm sorry, I got a little carried away."
Cheng F admitted frankly, then stood up generously and sat down next to Zi Nu, turning his back to Zi Nu.
Zi Nu was a little speechless, but she still put her slender white hands on Cheng F's shoulders and kneaded them gently.
Seeing Zi Nu taking advantage of her, Cheng F didn't hesitate to speak out her thoughts directly.
In fact, Zi Nu didn't agree, and Cheng F also planned to tell her. This was his plan, which was to make Liusha follow the path he arranged.
"The first way is simpler, which is to kill the Emerald Tiger directly."
"As long as the person who made the bet, Jade Tiger, dies and you, Liusha, increase the bet, and Jade Tiger is unable to pay the increased bet, then you, Liusha, will automatically win the bet."
