Chapter 943

After a few words of greeting, nian'er offered the tea, and Li Yuanqing said with a smile, "Lord Shen is a distinguished guest. Do you have time to come to Yuanqing today

Shen Shikui was a little embarrassed. After a moment, he calmed down and said with a smile, "Yuanqing, I'm honest This time, it's old brother, I, I I want you to... "

Shen Shikui can hardly be regarded as Mao Wenlong's father-in-law, and Li Yuanqing is Mao Wenlong's nephew

But at this time, Shen Shikui called himself "old brother" in front of Li Yuanqing. From this, it can be seen that this guy must be in big trouble now, so that he can pull himself so low.

As the old saying goes, "snake has its way, mouse has its way."

People in the river and the lake are all in the scene. We all know a lot of things.

It's the same on the outside, but it's cold and warm inside. It's like "if you drink water, you know how cold and warm you are.".

At this time, seeing that Shen Shikui's attitude was so low, Li Yuanqing did not show any surprise. He took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Lord Shen, you and I did not know each other on the first day. If you have anything, you can tell Yuanqing directly. If yuan Qing can help, he will do his best. "

When Shen Shikui heard Li Yuanqing's words, he recovered most of his spirit.

I can't help sighing: "no wonder Li Yuanqing was so young that he could make such a foundation. At this time, Dongjiang couldn't compare with him. Whether it's Li Yuanqing's mind, momentum or means, Shen Shikui can't find fault with him. "

For a moment, Shen Shikui said with a wry smile, "Yuanqing, this time, I'm here to borrow food from you."

"Borrow food?"

Li Yuanqing's eyebrows wrinkled slightly. He pondered for a moment and said, "Lord Shen, I remember that the sweet potato harvest in Lvshun last year was good, right? Why... "

At this time, although Lushun was a "special case" of southern Liaoning, Mao Wenlong had the face. Li Yuanqing's optimization results in Changsheng island and southern Liaoning province did not retain Lushun, and had always shared the achievements with Lushun.

Of course, ordnance confidentiality is an exception.

"Ah..."

Shen Shikui sighed deeply and said, "Yuanqing, it's all due to my old brother that I'm so dizzy that I've done something stupid..."

Li Yuanqing's attitude is very open, Shen Shikui can't hide it.

This matter, after all, is not a small matter, especially the number of deficit, which is not a small number, Shen Shikui did not dare to hide, and was busy describing the process of the matter to Li Yuanqing in detail.

It started with the harvest of sweet potato last year.

Because of the storage of sweet potato, it is impossible to store the fruit directly, but it must be sliced and dried before storage.

Among them, about 70% of them are left for their own consumption, and the rest 30% are handed over to the Dongjiang garrison in Lushun.

As the saying goes, "money is a man's courage, clothing is a man's face.".

In the past, when he had no money, Shen Shikui was conscientious in his work. After all, he was a businessman. Although he was an old oilseed, he was not a veteran oilseed.

To a large extent, Shen Shikui also wanted to make a career in Lushun, so that others could know that Shen Shikui did not sit on the throne of Lvshun only by his affinity with Mao Wenlong.

It's a pity that people's abilities vary, especially when they are excited and impulsive. When they make decisions, they will easily fall into the pit, even in the pit.

With so much grain, Shen Shikui's heart was itching.

After all, these grains have been kept in the warehouse. It's a waste to say that they will grow hair.

In particular, last year, Dongjiang headquarters and the fields around Zhenjiang had a good harvest of sweet potatoes. Mao Wenlong, understanding Lushun, did not worry about transporting the stored grain to PiDao.

Shen Shikui thought, use these sweet potatoes to store grain, to do something, to earn some money.

It is different from Li Yuanqing's Changsheng Island, including other places in southern Liaoning.

Lushun's position is very important. Shen Shikui relies on Li Yuanqing on one side, but on the other hand, he is also deeply on guard against Li Yuanqing.

I'm afraid that Li Yuanqing will be ruthless one day and swallow his Lushun into his stomach.

Therefore, Li Yuanqing's business in the south of Liaoning Province naturally did not have his share of Shen Shikui.

However, Shen Shikui was born as a businessman. Sweet potatoes were directly used to eat, which may not be accepted by the people in the Shanhaiguan for a while. However, Shen Shikui knew that in southern Liaoning, Li Yuanqing always used dried sweet potato to make wine.

The famous old cellar in southern Liaoning is brewed with dried sweet potato as the main raw material.

Shen Shikui used the dried sweet potatoes from the army reserves to exchange for some silver, and then he bought dried sweet potatoes from the common people to replenish the army reserves.

After all, in Jinzhou and Fuzhou, the life of the people under Li Yuanqing's administration was seen by the people in Lushun.

If there is money, who will not earn it?

Not to mention, in addition to dried sweet potatoes, Lushun had a good harvest of grain last year.In particular, to a large extent, dried sweet potato is only a supplementary food, not a staple food.

Even if dried sweet potato is ground into flour, it must be mixed with flour before steamed bread and pancake can be steamed. Simple dried sweet potato can only be used for porridge.

Shen Shikui also wanted to use his means to increase profits for the people of Lushun, strengthen his prestige and strengthen his control over Lushun.

With this idea, he soon sent his own soldiers to contact with each other to find a home for these sweet potatoes.

Although Liaodi was "isolated from overseas" at this time, the sea route of Liaohai was very smooth. With Shen Shikui's identity, he had a wide range of contacts in the Dongjiang army. Within a month, he had a lot of news.

There are a lot of people who have shown interest in this.

In fact, the technique of making wine with dried sweet potato is not complicated, especially in the areas of Jiangnan and Fujian.

However, how to make sweet potato wine to the purity of the old cellar in the south of Liaoning Province is something other people can't master.

In addition, Mao Wenlong was at the height of the sun, standing side by side with Li Yuanqing. Many merchants around him were also changing their methods, which were similar to Mao Wenlong.

Shen Shikui soon had a big harvest.

There is a big firm that claims to be "Qiyun society" in Nanjing. It shows great interest in this matter, and among many people, the highest bid is made.

After all, although Li Yuanqing was famous and famous all over the world, it was only a matter of money in the war. Everyone was "fair competition". Naturally, they would not care about it, and they could be enemies of Li Yuanqing.

In particular, the sphere of influence of Qiyun society is in the south of the Yangtze River.

The people of Qiyun society quickly sent 50000 liang of silver coins, and Shen Shikui didn't think much about it. Even if they were given 50000 liang of silver for them, they were given the money.

But within a month, the people of Qiyun society came again and asked for 150000 taels of silver. They just said that they were a little short of money and needed to deliver the money after the goods arrived.

Shen Shikui didn't have so much stock at that time, so he tried to keep the people of Qiyun society at a high price, but he sold goods on credit with the common people. When the money of Qiyun society came, he supplied the people with silver.

Things went very smoothly, and within three days, Zhou Zheng had been dealt with.

But Shen Shikui never dreamed of it. The people of Qiyun society took the goods of 150000 Liang silver, and there was no trace.

Shen Shikui sent someone to Nanjing to inquire about it. Only then did he know that there was no such brand in Nanjing. Shen Shikui was completely fooled as a monkey.

In particular, just a few days ago, Mao Wenlong of Dongjiang issued an order, asking Shen Shikui to make up for last year's sacrifice in preparation for the new offensive this year.

The common people in Lushun, Shen Shikui can use all kinds of means to prevaricate, but ~ ~, Mao Wenlong there, how dare he prevaricate?

You know, Mao Wenlong's shrewdness is by no means mortal!

Even if Shen Shikui had a baby daughter to support him, how dare he cheat on Mao Wenlong in such a matter? That's not looking for death!

At this time, the common people in Lushun did not know who was the source of the news, saying that Shen Shikui had swallowed up all the money and food and could not afford to pay it back.

Shen Shikui was so worried that he had not been able to sleep for several nights. After thinking about it, he could only be Li Yuanqing, who came to Changsheng island to seek wealth and had a good command of the world.

"Yuanqing, I also want to understand now. This ~, this is probably the means of dog Tartars! Yuan Qing, old brother, I, even if I lost this official position, went to this body skin, also does not matter! However, the common people in Lvshun are afraid that they are going to be trapped! "

At the end of the day, Shen Shikui's eyes were red and tears were about to flow out.

Li Yuanqing's brow could not help wrinkling.

Although Shen Shikui has said it in detail, Li Yuanqing is sensitive to realize that this guy has not completely told the truth.

It is obviously not in line with common sense to give goods like life and wealth to people who are not familiar with them so easily.

Unless it's him, Shen Shikui's brain is funny.

But how could Shen Shikui's brain be so muddled?

80%.

The other side's "sugar coated cannonball" offensive was so fierce that Shen Shikui couldn't find the north.

Shen Huangkui is wrong, but he has no means.

However, if we just take this, we can say that Shen Shikui is "cheating" with Tartars. I'm afraid that he has been wronged.

Li Yuanqing can still feel Shen Shikui's temperament.

This guy is very competitive. His family's ancestral property and business were destroyed by the dog Tartars. Many of his relatives died in the hands of Tartars. He always hated Tartars.

In history, on Shicheng Island, Shen Shikui fought hard and was captured by Tartars at the end.

In the face of azige, the king of Yingwu Prefecture in the Manchu Dynasty, Shen Shikui was very manly, full of heroic spirit, and said "to die".Seeing that Shen Shikui didn't mean to surrender and did not have ink marks, azig directly ordered the slave to kill him. He was also a great death.

The death of Shen Shikui also means that Dongjiang, which has flourished for more than ten years, is completely destroyed.

However, Shen Zhixiang, Shen Shikui's nephew, took refuge in Manchu and became a lackey of Manchu.

Shen Shikui fell into this "bureau" at this time, which was obviously "no wind coming from the hole.".

"Mr. Shen, I don't know. How much is the deficit? How much should Lord Shen offer to Mao Shuai of PiDao? "

Li Yuanqing looks at Shen Shikui quietly.

Shen Shikui was even more embarrassed at that time. His old face was a little red. He stammered and said, "Yuanqing, it's true. I'm honest. Lushun now, now, 7788, add up In all, we owe more than 330000 stones... "

"Three hundred and thirty thousand?"

Li Yuanqing was stunned.

My brother, Shen Shiqing, was a little embarrassed I was also blinded by lard! Completely fall into the way of others Yuan Qing, this matter, you can pull old brother a hand. Now, you are the only one who can pull the old brother out of the fire... "
