    "Fifty thousand shi of grain." In front of the official warehouse in Wancheng, Chen Sheng, Jia Xu, Liao Hua, Zhou Cang, and some personal guards looked at the large carts going in and out, with expressions on everyone's faces.  Showing joy and satisfaction.  With such a batch of food, let alone capturing Runan, even if we fail to capture the twenty or thirty cities in Runan, we can survive for a long time.  For Chen Sheng, the meaning is particularly different. This is the food taken from the hands of that damn Cai Mao.  "General, this is 50,000 stones. It is life-saving food for Cao Cao. It is also a very important asset for Cai Hao. Now it has fallen into our official warehouse. I don't know that Cao Cao, Cai Hao has learned about it.  What kind of terrifying face will it look like after hearing the news? " Liao Hua was also very excited, and the look on his face was full of satisfaction.  "Haha." Chen Sheng couldn't make any other expression except laughing.  Chen Sheng just looked at it with a smile. It wasn't until a long time later that Chen Sheng put away his particularly satisfied look, turned to Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, and Jia Xu and said, "We have food, and Runan is next. This time  Those responsible for the attack must exert all their strength, and those responsible for the defense must not let up. Go all out." "Promise." Everyone agreed.  After such an episode, the morale of the Wancheng forces headed by Chen Sheng was greatly boosted.  "However, this is not good for Cai Mao's forces. Not only is it bad, but it is very, very bad.  In Xiangyang City, Cai Mao's mansion has always been famous for its large area and beautiful repairs. In addition, there is also a very wealthy phenomenon.  That is the carriage that can be seen stopping in front of Cai Mao's mansion every day.  This carriage could be lined up for many blocks, it was really busy.  And this phenomenon also exists today, and this phenomenon is even more popular.  There were thirty or forty carriages in front of the Cai Mansion, and each carriage was very exquisite and elegant.  It is obvious that each of the owners of these carriages is either rich or noble.  If there was such a big scene in the past, the guards and slaves in front of the door would have smiled happily and straightened their chests. They would be as arrogant as they wanted.  But today, the guards and domestic slaves in front of the door were all sweating, and their faces were even livid.  You know, it¡¯s before the autumn harvest and the temperature is already very low.  It can be seen that this is not normal hot sweat, but cold sweat.  Not only in front of the house, but also in the entire Cai Mansion, whether it is the maids walking around or the servants in charge of chores, they are all cautious and careful in doing things.  Because they all know that their master is in a very bad mood today, just like a volcano that may erupt at any time.  But his master Cai Mao was an important minister in Jingzhou.  Even a sneeze will make the whole Jingzhou shake three times.  Not to mention, these servants whose lives are worth nothing.  If it offends the master, I really don¡¯t know how to write the word ¡°death¡±.  Everyone knows that they must not anger their master today.  But the servants don't know that their master is also a doormat today, and they have to bear this anger.  I saw many people sitting on their knees in the hall of Cai Mansion. These people included both gray-haired old people and young people, but without exception, they were all men with dignified appearance and dignified temperament.  As explained in the previous article, there are many wealthy families in Jingzhou.  And Cai Mao was just the largest among them, that is, the leading representative. These large clans allied and made friends with each other, forming a huge force that even Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou, could not do anything about.  And this time, everyone has contributed to the food trading, otherwise, even with the wealth of Jingzhou, these family members of the family can not make up for the entire 50,000 stones.  Correspondingly, these grains are also the majority of the grain reserves of the wealthy families.  Everyone is counting on this deal to be completed and take their family's property to a higher level.  And what¡¯s going on now?  News of the interception of grain came from the north. Naturally, the leaders of these wealthy families couldn't sit still, and they all went to Cai Mao's mansion to question him.  "Cai Degui, Cai Degui. I have said before that this grain transaction has nothing to do with Cao Cao, but it has a lot to do with entering Chen Sheng's Wancheng. Then Chen Sheng is a hungry wolf, and you are offering advice to the lord.  , He cut the food aid to Chen Sheng in half. When he saw the 50,000 shi of food coming to his door, he didn't bite it without opening his mouth?" A gray-haired old man scolded Cai Mao rudely.  This man is from the Pang family in Jingzhou, his name is Pang Fei, and he is a very senior big shot.  This Pang family is also Pang Degong, the Pang family where Pang Tong is located. The Pang family is a very large family, including cows, ghosts, and snakes.  And thisFei Fei dared to form a partnership with Cai Mao and took the business to Cao Cao.  "You said this, but didn't you agree in the end?" Facing Pang Fei's question, Cai Mao couldn't help but say something in his heart.  But facing this veteran big shot, Cai Hao didn't dare to say that. Not only did he not dare, but he also had to smile and said: "Mr. Pang, I didn't expect that after such a rigorous plan, Chen Sheng could actually get the news.  "Ah." "What are you talking about? As the saying goes, no matter how perfect the house is, there will always be loopholes. You should have thought of this since you made this deal, and now you have to.  Take full responsibility." Pang Fei blushed and said harshly.  "Yes, Cai Mao, you have to take full responsibility." People who were usually very polite and talkative, now faced with such a big loss, all of them are like red-eyed wolves, clinging to death.  To be honest, Cai Hao really wanted to renege on the debt, but looking at these blood-red eyes, even though Cai Hao was as powerful as an ox, he didn't dare to renege on the debt.  No matter how strong the Cai family is, they cannot withstand the siege of a pack of wolves.  In order to incur such a huge loss, these well-dressed beasts would do anything.  Cai Mao believes this very much.  So, Cai Hao had to grit his teeth and swallow it into his stomach. He gritted his teeth and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will pay 70% of this loss." This was Cai Hao's final bottom line.  "Seventy percent?" After listening to Cai Mao's words, these representatives of the wealthy families thought about it for a while, and suddenly felt satisfied and returned to their well-dressed appearance.  He said to Cai Hao hypocritically, "Where is it? You spent so much on getting Degui this time."  Soon after, the representatives left with satisfaction.  Cai Mao was left alone in a daze, with only 70% of the 50,000 shi of food available.  Cai Hao felt dizzy when he thought of this number.  "Chen Sheng, you will not die well." Finally, Cai Mao cursed loudly.  The sound soared to the sky and could be heard throughout the house.  (To be continued.
