Chapter 14 (1/2)
Although Chengying's men don't have any armed forces, their knowledge and resources are enough to pry the Empire.
And his behavior obviously touched the interests of some people
Xiangjiazong is one of the seven sects of Douluo. At this time, there is no saying of the seven sects, but they have a strong defense animal soul, diamond mammoth, but they have occupied their place on the mainland.
As a sect, if you want to have a foothold, you should not only have strong force, but also have sufficient financial resources. Otherwise, the treatment will decline, and even the soul masters from the same vein will fall apart.
Famine is a great opportunity to make money, hoarding goods and selling the already scarce grain at a sky high price. This is what businessmen do every famine.
This is why in ancient times, it was often an important reason to emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce. The monster of capital swallowed up life and never divided good and evil.
Xiangjiazong also valued the business opportunities here. With its strong military guarantee, it drove away all its competitors in the chaotic disaster area. It was preparing to sell the stored grain at a high price, but saw the vast disaster relief forces.
They didn't know the potatoes pulled by the wagons, but they could guess that it must be grain.
In the 14-year-old Huyan earthquake, the future leader of Xiangjia sect could not help but frown and said, ”didn't the clan agree with the merchants of Wangdu? Where on earth did the Empire get relief food? ”
The current patriarch Huyan Chu also had a bad face: ”go! Go and ask. I'll see which one is not open-minded and dare to spoil our good things at this time. ”
Zongmen is a legitimate armed organization. If you find out who is making trouble, it's certain to kill the door and ask for a statement.
Huyan Chu came forward to stop the people and horses escorting goods all the way. The other party saw a group of people as strong as three hundred Spartan warriors blocking the way and stopped immediately.
A man jumped down from the motorcade: ”I dare ask why elder Chu Huyan stopped us?” The tone is neither humble nor overbearing. Although the patriarchal status is respected, the empire is an empire after all.
Huyan Chu didn't care about these details, so he came straight to the mountain: ”I want to ask what this disaster relief thing is and who did it.”
”Oh! This! This is the improved potato of the great sage. It is said that it can mature as soon as three or four months. These are all gifts from the great sage in the car. ” When I said this, I could hear the sincere admiration in his tone.
”Great sage?” Huyan Chu frowned deeper.
”Yes, the great sage not only gave food, but also borrowed 10 million gold soul coins for disaster relief, but also sent hundreds of people to participate in the resettlement of victims free of charge. If it weren't for the great sage, we wouldn't have arrived so soon.”
”It's the guy who runs a shop alone! He is alone. We have nothing to fear. Even if we lose money this time, he will lose face. If we don't get it back, it will be looked down upon by people!
Patriarch, let's go to him for an explanation. He's just a glib businessman! If he compensated for this loss, he would be fine to say, if he refused... Hum! ” Huyanzhen whispered coldly.
At a young age, he knew the importance of fame to the sect. Being beaten in the face could only mean that they were weak and deceptive.
”I'm afraid I can't do with him this time.” Huyan Chu shook his head and watched the motorcade go away. ”The great sage, don't provoke him easily. His reputation is so good. Especially this time, he spent tens of millions on disaster relief. If we move him, the whole sect will be labeled as evil.”
”But the Lord!”
”Don't say it. Go back to the sect door and sell grain at a fair price. This loss is nothing to the sect door. As you said, he is alone and carefree. If you really annoy him, I'm afraid the loss will be greater.”
