Someone in later generations made a very incisive statement.

With more than 300% profit, capital dares to commit any crime and even risk being snatched.

In this era, grain represents wealth, power and stability. Two thousand seven hundred stones of rice are not too much, but Cai Mao believes that this is just the beginning.

"I thank Uncle Cai for this matter today. Even if we give this little rice and grain to Uncle Cai, if our friends in Jiangdong still have food, they will have to rely on Uncle Cai to find a way to sell it in the future."

Cai Mao had already guessed the whole story.

It turned out that Guan Ping didn't know how to sneak into Le Jin's fleet, and took advantage of the weak characteristics of Cao's naval army and actually tricked the task of transporting grain.

According to a soldier who consumes 2 kilograms of rice a day, the 2,700 stone of rice can only be supplied to 60,000 people for a day. This is not enough for the supply of Cao Jun headquarters, let alone salt and other side dishes.

But it is a very amazing number for individuals.

Guan Ping and Ma Liang were in good terms. In the future, whether Cao's army was traveling by water or by land, the army transporting grain would have reasonable "loss". Cai Mao's connections, relationships and the navy in his hands were important reliances for him to participate in this "business".

Guan Ping paid the protection fee first, and their business scale will continue to expand in the future.

For example, Jingzhou has always lacked salt and can only buy it from nearby places. Guan Ping was able to transfer Wu Jun to perform, so Cai Mao could naturally reasonably immerse this huge profit into his home!

"Nephew." Cai Mao thought for a moment, "Uncle, have you calculated it, or have you calculated it wrong. Will my life and death friendship with your father take advantage of you?"

Guan Ping smiled and said:

"It's true that my nephew knew he was wrong. I haven't come to Jiangling for a long time and feel a little frightened. Please don't blame me, uncle."

Cai Mao gently stroked his long beard, unable to suppress the greed in his eyes.

He bent down and said slowly: "I have always regarded you as my nephew. Even if there is any disaster in Jiangling, no one will make things difficult for you for the sake of my uncle.

Just do your business. Even if God Haotian comes in Jiangling City, I have to call me God!”

·

Sure enough, in this world, besides fighting and killing, what is more important is human nature.

Cai Mao and Liu Bei made enemies because of interests, and betrayed his niece Liu Cong for profit. Now he regards Guan Ping as his own nephew because of interests.

With Cai Mao’s support, Guan Ping became more confident about this trip to Jiangling.

According to the plan he discussed with Ma Liang before, he will meet another uncle next.

In a small but elegant wooden house in Jiangling City, a Confucian scholar with frosty temples and a half-white beard was sitting on a clean cushion and studying intently. It seemed that everything around him had nothing to do with him.

This person was a major help from Liu Biao to occupy Jingzhou, and Kuai Yue, a native of Zhonglu, Xiangyang.

Kuai Yue's name is Yidu, and he has a very prominent reputation in Jingzhou, second only to Cai Mao.

After Cao Cao occupied Jiangling, Kuai Yue came to Jiangling to help Cao Cao pacify the people of Jingzhou. With his reputation, he tried his best to suppress the dissatisfaction of the Jingzhou people in Cao's army, which ensured that the Northern Army and Jingzhou Army could temporarily remain stable.

Cai Mao showed arrogance these days, which made Kuai Yue's identity particularly embarrassing. He was embarrassed to participate in the dispute between Cao Cao and Cai Mao, so he could only hide in a different courtyard to study, preparing to wait until the situation is stable and then show his strength.

It is impossible for Kuai Yue to not regret the incident these days.

He thought that Cao's army was invincible in the world and could show the posture of Mount Tai, so he picked Liu Bei and Sun Quan together.

But he never expected that Cao's naval army was so incompetent and even had to start from scratch. Now all the wars must be handed over to the original Jingzhou naval army.

There is nothing we can do about this either.

Cao Cao has been fighting and fighting for so many years, constantly fighting. His troops have no time to practice water battles, and they don’t even have time to rest. They complain all the way, how can they compete with the Jiangdong Navy, who had just killed Huang Zu, who is in a high morale.

If I had known before...If I had known before, why we didn't connect with Sun Quan, why should we rest on others' breath?

Kuai Yue was absent-minded and didn't read anything in the book. He was about to go out for a walk when his servants suddenly told the story of Ma Liang and Yunshan.

Ma Liang knows who is Yunshan?

Kuai Yue looked suspicious and had to invite the two of them into the house.

As soon as he entered the door, Ma Liang immediately came up enthusiastically and bowed down, saying "Shi Shu". Kuai Yue was completely unprepared and sent the servant away with a smile, and then turned his eyes to the man beside Ma Liang.

The young man kept his head down, looking a little weird, Kuai Yue asked inexplicably:

"It's..."

"My younger generation Guan Ping, I wonder if Mr. Kuai has heard of the younger generation's reputation?"

Kuai Yue raised his eyebrows and his face turned pale immediately.

Guan Ping... Guan Ping...

He was about to shout, but Guan Pingxueliang's long sword had been unsheathed and was placed on Kuai Yue's neck like lightning.

"You, you!"

Kuai Yue was powerful and had a high point of his life, but the problem was that he was old and the riding and shooting he learned when he was young had long been abandoned. Guan Ping wanted to kill him just a little bit.

"Jun Liu was entrusted by his youngest son, Jingzhou, and in front of Liu Gong's bed, what did Kuai Gong promise? The younger generation is very knowledgeable and I really want to hear the words of the nobles. Please ask Kuai Gong to listen to me." Guan Ping's voice was very calm, but Kuai Yue could feel the fire burning in the young man's eyes, which was obviously a boiling murderous intent.

At that time, Kuai Yue and others persuaded Liu Cong to surrender and secretly contacted Cao Cao. It was not until Cao Cao approached Liu Bei that he received the news, which almost wiped out the entire army in Changbanpo.

Kuai Yue complained in his heart and thought to himself that Guan Ping was coming back to kill him to take revenge.

"Don't kill me! Liu Xuande's name of benevolence and righteousness spreads all over the world, if so..."

"Reply! Answer! Me!" Guan Ping raised the steel knife in his hand, and the sharp blade lit up a silver light. The cold back of the knife was pressed against Kuai Yue's face, which made Kuai Yue sweat coldly.

It is a true saying that scholars cannot fight against martial artists.

He looked at Ma Liang with a look of help. Seeing Ma Liang looking at him with a silly smile, he knew that today's affairs could not be stopped, so he could only say tremblingly:

"I, when Liu Jingsheng entrusted us to assist our second son to take over Jingzhou. But Prime Minister Cao embraced his troops..."

"Don't talk about this for now." Guan Ping said in a cold voice, "How did you do it? Where is Jingzhou?"

"I'm because..."

"Answer me, where is Jingzhou!"

Kuai Yue's whole body was like a sieve, and his usual calmness disappeared. The saint's subtle words and righteousness kept flashing through his mind, and he wanted to take a stern and unafraid attitude to scold Guan Ping, a rat who was under the predicament.

But looking at Guan Ping's fierce eyes, all his words of justice became begging for mercy when they came to his mouth, and he could only hesitate:

"Liu, Liu Cong surrenders, I, I can't stop it. It's me that I'm sorry to Jingsheng..."

As soon as this statement came out, Ma Liang immediately called him.

He stood between the two, separated Guan Ping and Kuai Yue, and complained to Guan Ping:

"Aping, you promised me to be more polite to Mr. Kuai before. I said Mr. Kuai is not such a person, and you don't believe it."

He looked at Kuai Yue with a smile:

"Please tell my nephew who was trying to instigate Liu Cong to surrender? It's all legendary that it was Kuai Gong, and my nephew was the first one to disbelieve it."
