Alien Lord

Chapter 168 Wu Ren

"Brother, why do you think the Chen family has so much grain? It's 6.5 million catties, not 650,000 catties." Wu Ren asked with a puzzled look on his face. I am very puzzled by the fact that there is so much food.

"Hehe, the strength of the Chen family is really strong!" Wood did not answer Wu Ren directly, but said something that seemed irrelevant, but Wu Ren understood it.

"Yes, the strength of the Chen family is indeed strong!" Wu Ren said the same thing.

After a while, Wu Ren couldn't help asking: "Brother, is it possible that Mr. Wu just watched the Chen family become stronger and stronger, and eventually replaced the Wu family's position in Huangsha Town?"

"Little brother, how do you know that the master is not in charge?" Wood said meaningfully.

At this time, Wood remembered the previous conversation with Wu Youning, which was actually a replica of the conversation between him and Wu Ren.

After Wu Youning asked Wood to agree to the price of 30 silver coins and 100 catties of green corn from the Chen Mansion, Wood began to transport the grain from the Chen Mansion's granary.

On the first day, Wood transported 500,000 catties of grain, for which he paid a full 150,000 silver coins.

Watching the people in Chen's mansion move boxes of silver coins into Chen's mansion, Wood's heart really hurt. Fortunately, it was only this time, and Wood thought so at that time.

However, to Wood's surprise, the Chen family came to inform him the next day that there was still one million catties of grain in their granary, and Wood was instantly dumbfounded.

In the end, he went to see it himself, and the facts were indeed as the people of the Chen Mansion said, the granary of the Chen Mansion, which had been emptied by Wood yesterday, was already full of grain.

For this reason, Wood held his nose and bought another one million catties of grain, and 300,000 silver coins went into the hands of the Chen family.

This time, Wood didn't think that the Chen family just let it go.

The result was just as Wood imagined, the next day, the people from the Chen Mansion came again, still with one million grains.

Wood didn't dare to make decisions anymore, he went directly to Wu Youning's study, and was going to talk about this matter with Wu Youning.

Wood always felt that Chen's actions were too weird, as if there was a big hand overriding behind him. As the housekeeper of the Wu family, Wood was obliged to tell Wu Youning about his uneasiness in his heart.

"Master, I have something to report to you." Wood said in a low voice outside Wu Youning's study.

"Well, come in!" Soon, the voice of Wu Youning letting Wood in came from the study.

"Wood, how is the food going?" Just as Wood entered the door, Wu Youning asked him what he was most concerned about.

"Master, this is what I want to report to you this time," Wood said.

"Oh, then tell me." Wu Youning raised his eyebrows and said.

"My lord, the movement in the Chen Mansion seems to be a little abnormal. The day before yesterday I had already moved 500,000 catties of grain in the Chen Mansion's granary. Yesterday, another million catties of grain suddenly appeared in the Chen Mansion's granary. Wait until I yesterday After finally moving the one million catties of grain, today in the granary of the Chen Mansion..."

"Is it another million catties, hum...!" Wu Youning snorted coldly, and took Wood's words.

"Chen Yuqiang, Chen Yuqiang, I didn't expect your Chen family to hide so deeply. In just two days, you have mobilized so much food, and I haven't noticed any movement yet. It seems that you Chen family want to move. ?” Wu Youning muttered in his mouth.

"Hiss..." Wood gasped, and asked with a surprised face: "Master, do you mean that the Chen family wants to wrestle with our Wu family?"

"Well, it seems to be the case, otherwise how can we explain that the Chen family can produce one million catties of grain every other day, and when the Chen family was transporting grain, we didn't notice any movement? Is the strength of the Chen family very strong now?

With such a powerful Chen family, of course he would want to obtain a higher status. For example, replace our Wu family's position on the sandbar.

I said why Chen Yuqiang turned against me before, and how he had the courage to turn against me. The original reason is that the Chen family wants to make their voice known to the outside world. "

Wu Youning said with a worried face, and thought he had figured out the reason why Chen Yuqiang fell out with him before.

Wu Youning never imagined that Lin Ze was manipulating all of this. Lin Ze smuggled the food for the Chen family, and Lin Ze had plane seeds in his hands. It would be strange if Wu Youning could detect the movement of Lin Ze's grain transportation.

Wu Youning would have such an idea, in fact, he was too self-centered, always thinking that he was in control of everything, and no one else could escape his calculations, but he didn't know that his self-confidence had covered his eyes, making him He could no longer see the truth of the matter.

Chen Yuqiang turned against him because Chen Yuqiang saw Lin Ze's strength and realized that if they were against Lin Ze, they would be the ones who would fail. Therefore, Chen Yuqiang was smart enough not to be against Lin Ze.

However, Wu Youning's self-righteousness blinded his mind, and finally stood on the opposite side of Lin Ze, and now he thinks that the Chen family wants to wrestle with him...

Ha ha... If Lin Ze knew about this, he would 100% dismissively say: crazy!

"Fortunately, the purchase of grain this time exposed some details of the Chen family. In this way, our Wu family has also made preparations in advance. This is also a blessing in misfortune!" Wu Youning breathed a sigh of relief, and was able to know some details of the Chen family in advance. , Wu Youning was still very happy in his heart.

"Master is wise!" Wood flattered Wu Youning and then asked, "Master, shall we still buy the food from the Chen family?"

"Accept, of course I have to accept. I will accept as much as the Chen family sells. Don't say a million catties, even if it is 10 million catties, as long as the Chen family can get it, I dare to accept it. The civil unrest in Qingzhou is now It has extended to several border cities in Shazhou, and now the price of grain is rising every day. The price of grain in Qingzhou has risen to 60 silver coins and 100 catties, and it will soon rise here in Shazhou.

In such a disaster era, food is the most important capital. With food, there will be the capital to speak in the troubled times in the future. The Chen family now wants to make a lot of money from us by selling a lot of grain, so I will do what they want, and soon the Chen family will understand how stupid it is for them to sell me a lot of grain , hahaha..., a group of short-sighted idiots, hahaha...! "

Wu Youning laughed loudly in the study, he seemed to have seen the embarrassment of the Chen family regretting being trampled under their feet once again in his mind.

"Master is wise!" Wood opened his mouse eyes and flattered Wu Youning.

………………

Although the strength of the Chen family is very strong, after the conversation with Wu Youning, Wood has no doubts about the victory of the Wu family over the Chen family.

Just like the old man said, food is the most important thing in such a chaotic age, any far-sighted family or smart people will not put a lot of food in the house outside, they will do it at such a time People who do such things must be on the other side of failure in the end.

Without foresight, where will the fruits of victory come from!

"Brother, are the Wu family planning to move the Chen family?" Wu Ren heard something from Wood's words.

"Hehe, little brother, don't ask about these things. You just need to know that we are following the Wu family right away."

What Wu Youning said is absolutely confidential. Although Wu Ren is Wood's younger brother, in this case, Wood still will not tell Wu Ren.

It's not that Wood doesn't believe Wu Ren, but it's better not to say things like this.

Once Wu Ren finds out, maybe one day when he was drunk, he accidentally said it out, or when he had a conflict with the Chen family, he said it out of the blue. Explain something to Wu Ren.

"Brother, you are like this again." Wu Ren complained, every time there is a big event, Wood has such a virtue. One question and three questions.

Wu Ren is also used to Wood like this, so he just complained, and then returned to normal.

"Little brother, there won't be any problems with things outside the town, the master attaches great importance to this." Wood said with a serious face.

When it comes to Wu Youning, Wood always has such a serious expression. From this point of view, Wood is still very loyal to Wu Youning.

Otherwise, Wu Youning is not here now, and the person opposite Wood is also his younger brother Wu Ren. When he mentioned Wu Youning, he didn't have to be so serious.

"Don't worry, big brother, I will take care of the affairs outside the town. The ones I send out are absolutely good at fooling people. Not to mention fooling a normal person into a limp, but fooling him into confusion is really not a big deal. "Wu Ren said confidently.

Of the three of Ma Wu and the others, Wu Ren was selected after thousands of choices. He is an absolute master of fooling around.

"Well, that's good, I'm still at ease when you do things." Wood nodded, and Wood was still at ease about his younger brother's ability to do things.

For so many years, Wu Ren has not missed everything he explained.

"Little brother, you need to work harder on the food purchase. I'm going back. If you need anything, go find me in the mansion."

"Well, brother, I know."

"That's it, I'm leaving!" After saying that, Wood got up and left Wu Ren's house.

Just a few minutes after Wood walked out of Wu Ren's house, dozens of armed soldiers walked towards him. Wood looked carefully and found that the leader was Xu Sheng.

"Isn't this Xu Sheng taking care of him in the refugee camp? Why is he here now?" Wood thought suspiciously.

"Hey, the direction Xu Sheng went to seems to be the direction of his brother's house, could it be..." Wood was shocked, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.

Wood hurriedly chased after Xu Sheng... (To be continued.)
