Blood from Daming

Chapter 36
Xue Yun saw that Zu Zerun was extremely rude, slashing and slashing at his fellow enemies, his heart was also aroused, and he stopped entangled with him, and hit Zu Zerun's back of the knife with a gun, Zu Zerun was too strong to hold the knife stably, The middle of the whole body was wide open, Xue Yun saw the opportunity and shot straight at Zu Zerun's.

Seeing that Xue Yun was about to succeed, Zu Zerun drew his sword sideways, and with a 'click' sound, Xue Yun's spear was split into two sections.

Zu Zerun immediately shouted: "I have won." The sword continued to stab Xue Yun's chest and abdomen.

Xue Yun's momentum remained unabated in the air, the broken gun barrel hit Zu Zerun's chest, he stood upside down to avoid Zu Zerun's sword, and hit Zu Zerun's face with his left fist, and held the broken gun barrel against Zu Zerun's face with his right hand. Zerun's chest flew straight out.

Xue Yun walked forward a few steps and stooped to pick up the sword from the ground. He only felt the coldness of the sword and the light of the sword was scary. It was a precious sword, but it was a pity that it fell into the hands of this villain.

Zu Zerun fell to the ground by Xue Yunding more than [-] feet away. The little kid Wu Sangui ran up to help Zu Zerun. Zu Zerun's face was bloody, his nose was full of blood and tears, and his mouth was still gulping. Spitting blood.

Master Luo Sigong, the commander of the pro-army capital, officially announced that Xue Yun was appointed as the pro-army trial thousand households, and the emperor's young pro-army deputy commander.

The officials on the training field also congratulated him, and the crowd outside the field was also noisy.

Wu Sangui called his subordinates to lift up Zu Zerun and said, "Come on, the people here are bullying us from Liaodong. One day I want them to look good." The group of people cursed and disappeared from people's sight.

Xue Yun became famous all over the capital in the first battle. Originally, my buddies wanted to keep a low profile, but it's a pity that they became like this because of impulsiveness.Xue Yun thanked all the adults on the field, and took the official uniform, waist knife, seal, and waist badge from Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch and eunuch who supervised ceremonies, and Wei Zhongxian said in a cold tone: "Little boy, yes, yes Come and walk around our house when you are free." Xue Yun thanked again.

Xue Yun came to the young pro-army to say hello, everyone recognized him well, Xue Yun was promoted to an official position and was not restricted by the camp, when everyone was chatting about the same, the youngest Mao led the horse and followed the two servants to come to the front.

Xue Yun pleaded guilty and led the youngest Mao and the two servants to ride happily to the house.

I walked all the way out of the inner city and came to Shizi Street. I remembered that it was almost a month ago since I came to "Xu Ji Silk Village".

Seeing that it was still early, Xue Yun got off the horse, handed the horse to the youngest Mao and let the three of them wait, and walked towards "Xu Ji Silk Village" by himself, and came to the gate of "Xu Ji Silk Village". Recognizing Xue Yun, he called out 'Master' and went into the shop to report.

After a while, Mr. Wang came out, followed by three men. Mr. Wang said with a smile: "My lord, I haven't been here for a long time, let us wait."

Xue Yun: "There are too many things at home that have delayed my husband. This time, the boy has made a special trip to apologize to my husband."

Mr. Wang greeted him sideways: "My lord, go inside and talk."

Xue Yun and Mr. Wang entered the inner hall of "Xu Ji Silk Village", and the three people who were with Mr. Wang also sat and talked together. Mr. Wang introduced to Xue Yun: The middle-aged man wearing a blue cloth shirt is named Cheng Qiang. , the bald man is called Zhang Zilin, and the young man is called Yuan Zhensheng.

The waiter added a cup of tea to Xue Yun, and Mr. Wang said: "Young master, the three colleagues are all those who helped rescue the victims this time. The food for the rescue of the victims last time has been used up. We have raised one hundred shi from the colleagues and used it." It's almost there."

Xue Yun: "I'm sorry I was late. I'll ask my family to send me money when I get back."

Mr. Wang: "That's the best. I'll show the account to you."

Xue Yun: "There is no need to do this, the boy believes in Mr. Wang."

Mr. Wang: "Let's not talk about other things. The shopkeeper Cheng donated 20 taels of silver, Yuan Zhensheng donated 20 taels of silver, and the old man also donated [-] taels of silver."

Xue Yun nodded his thanks to the three, Mr. Wang: "Mr. Zhang is completely willing to help for free."

Xue Yun: "How is the situation of the victims now?"

Mr. Wang: "Nowadays the weather is getting hotter, there are more ways to live, and many people have dispersed. A few days ago, the imperial court had a lot of fun killing Tartar spies. The wealthy households in the capital sent some food, so that the victims can survive for a few more days." .”

Mr. Wang and Xue Yun discussed for a while, and Mr. Zhang Zilin and Mr. Zhang said: "My lord, the price of grain has been rising since the beginning of spring, and now three liang of silver can only be bought for a dollar."

Shopkeeper Cheng: "There is such a thing. Cargo ships are often robbed on the water and land routes in Nanzhili, and sometimes people are killed or injured. The goods coming from the south are much less than in previous years."

Yuan Zhensheng: "There are rumors in the court that in the Guangdong and Guangxi areas in the south, the army is fighting against the Xiyang Shengfan, and a large amount of supplies have been transported to the south."

Xue Yun: "If this is the case, the lives of the victims will be even more difficult. They just need to have food in their hands."

Mr. Wang pointed to Mr. Zhang and said: "Mr. Zhang used to be in charge of the grain warehouse. He knows these things better than me. Brother Zilin, tell me a few words."

Zhang Zilin thought for a while and said: "The main reason for the increase in food prices is that the weather in my Ming Dynasty has been bad in the past few years, and the harvest in the fields has declined. In this situation, coupled with the fact that rich households and government grain merchants are reluctant to sell their grain, I am afraid that the rise of grain merchants has just begun.”

Everyone was silent.Xue Yun: "I'll take 500 taels of silver for you to buy grain first, and I hope these people can get rid of this difficulty as soon as possible."

Everyone called Xue Yun Gaoyi, Zhang Zilin sighed: "If I have a grain store, I will save a lot of money."

Xue Yun: "If it is to open a grain store, what conditions does Mr. Zhang need?"

Zhang Zilin: "The first thing is that there must be someone on the official side, the second thing is that the capital must be sufficient, and the third thing is that the south has to have a stable supply of goods. Others are not too important. Doing this grain business is almost a business that guarantees no loss. "

Xue Yun: I want to open a grain store, can Mr. Zhang help me.

Zhang Zilin: "Young master, opening a grain store is very expensive, you should discuss it with the adults in your family first."

Xue Yun: "I don't need to tell my family, I can make my own decisions, but I don't know if Mr. Zhang is willing to help me, and how much money it will take to open a grain store."

Zhang Zilin: "Young master, at least 1 taels of silver is enough. If you have a shop at home, you can save a lot of silver."

Xue Yun: "I'll come up with a solution for money, but I don't know if Mr. Zhang is willing to give in."

Zhang Zilin hurriedly bowed and said, "The young master is now my proprietor."

Xue Yun: "The biggest wish of my experience grain store is not to make a lot of money, but to help more poor people who are suffering in the world, so that they can live a better life."

Mr. Wang, Zhang Zilin, shopkeeper Cheng, Yuan Zhensheng and the others couldn't help but respect Xue Yun, and the way they looked at Xue Yun completely changed.

Zhang Zilin: "If you need a ready-made grain store, my old employer has long since closed down. The place is two streets away from here, and the land is very good. It is really because the government exploited too much, and the supply of goods was controlled by the big grain merchants, so they had no choice but to close down."

Xue Yun: "Mr. Zhang, just ask your old club if the price is reasonable, and we will make an offer. As for the government and the source of goods, we will figure out a way after we do it."

Zhang Zilin: "Young Master is responsible for the grain store. Don't worry, I will take care of it. It's just that the government and the source of goods must be handled properly, otherwise the business will fall into my own hands."

Xue Yun: "Mr. Zhang, you can do it with confidence. Mr. Wang, is there any one of you who is willing to help me?"
