Chapter 1682: Arms deal with Philippine Shuicheng and refugee siege

At around six o'clock in the morning on June 2, Xingyu 1181, Yan Tielong got up with a headache in the rented manor in Feishui City. After all, he drank too much last night, but fortunately he also adhered to his principles, otherwise it would not only be a headache, but also a headache. There is also the condition of weak legs.

Yan Tielong was sobering up while thinking about the content of his conversation with the lord of Feishui City yesterday. After all, if the things he promised were not handled well, it might be very bad. After all, this is their territory.

At around five o'clock yesterday evening, Yan Tielong took the female escort disguised as Baron Danli Finami to the city lord's mansion in Feishui City according to the invitation to attend a dinner. Many local nobles and wealthy businessmen came to the dinner. Of course, the dinner was also very rich, and The buffet was formed, which also verified Prissis's information that there was no shortage of food in the city.

Then Yan Tielong began to help the receptionists around him to bring high-end delicacies to Baron Danlifinami. After this period of training, the female guard disguised as Baron Danlifinami was able to install aristocratic etiquette to eat delicious food, but it was still It was very difficult for the other party. After all, Baron Danlifinami's appetite was very large according to his body shape, but the female guard could not even eat a tenth of it. In the end, even with the bonus of Yan Tielong's medicine, the secret was almost exposed.

Of course, in the early stages of the banquet, Yan Tielong got to know many wealthy businessmen through business communication. Through communicating with them, Yan Tielong learned that these wealthy businessmen had long predicted that there would be a flood, so they hoarded a large amount of food, hoping to sell the food at a high price during the flood.

However, these wealthy businessmen did not expect that the water volume of the three major rivers this time was three times that of previous years. This also caused the floods to be far greater than those wealthy businessmen expected. As a result, a large number of ordinary peasants, rich peasants and small nobles went bankrupt. This also resulted in them having food but unable to sell it. , and at the same time, they have recently received news that the official government wants to quell the refugees and suppress their large reserves of food.

Of course, Yan Tielong also expressed his intention to buy grain to those wealthy businessmen who had stored large amounts of grain, but he did not buy much grain. In this way, the price of the grain he purchased may be extremely low. After all, there are many wealthy businessmen selling grain, and those who have the ability to purchase grain few people.

The wealthy businessmen present naturally knew that Yan Tielong had the intention to suppress food prices, so they did not give Yan Tielong an immediate reply. After all, the wealthy businessmen present were all affiliated with each other, and they also hoped to maximize their profits.

Halfway through the banquet, the lord of Feishui City found Yan Tielong. He asked Yan Tielong if he had any weapons and equipment for sale?

When asked by Feishui City about the sale of weapons, Yan Tielong directly stated that they were not weapons dealers, and pointed out that if they were weapons dealers, they would not be allowed to come here.

After hearing Yan Tielong's story, the lord of Feishui City first expressed his understanding, and then hinted whether he was willing to sell the equipment of the caravan's armed forces. He was willing to pay three times the market price to purchase it.

Faced with the Feishui city lord's proposal to purchase the weapons and equipment of the caravan, Yan Tielong was very moved, but when he thought of something, he said that most of the armed members of their caravan were equipped with wooden weapons. If the lord did not dislike it, he was willing to give him a gift. batch.

The Lord of Feishui City naturally knew that the weapons and equipment equipped by most of the armed members of the opponent's caravan were made of wood, and he naturally looked down upon those equipment. The equipment he wanted were the iron tools held by the elite of the opponent's caravan.

Faced with the need for iron weapons and equipment from the city lord of Feishui City, Yan Tielong did not refuse, but the lion asked for five times the price, and at the same time he only bought a thousand pieces.

The lord of Feishui City was a little surprised when he heard that Yan Railway said that he was selling a thousand pieces of iron weapons and equipment. He did not expect that the other party actually had so many iron weapons and equipment. After all, he had also investigated some of the other party's information.

Of course, the lord of Feishuicheng naturally bought weapons and equipment at five times the price, and then the lord of Feishuicheng asked Yan Tielong to buy food!

Hearing the request from the lord of Feishui City to purchase grain, Yan Tielong was a little confused. He asked the other party in a low voice. If the local force of the other party was not hiding a large amount of food, he also pointed out that the other party also had a lot of food in his collection. Why should he buy food from him?

Faced with Yan Tielong's doubts, the lord of Feishui City did not hide the fact that he told Yan Tielong because he had reached an arms agreement. He had already told the upper nobles in Kululu City that all the food in their city had been sent to Kululu for disaster relief. Now their city There is also a food crisis. If they take out food, it will mean that they have deceived the upper nobles. They will be dealt with immediately, so they need outside merchants to buy food.

At that time, Yan Tielong deliberately pretended not to understand that the other party wanted to clear up the hidden identity of the food, so he suggested that his caravan did not have that much food at all and he might not be able to help the other party.

However, the lord of Feishui City smiled and said that he did not need Yan Tielong to provide food, as long as he spread the news to the outside and the caravan sold them food.

After hearing the very obvious statement from the lord of Feishui City, Yan Tielong naturally agreed. If he didn't agree, he would not be able to bear the consequences when the time comes.

Lord Feishuicheng was naturally very happy about Yan Tielong's recognition, so he toasted repeatedly, which also led to Yan Tielong's drunkenness. He even arranged for a maid to serve him. Fortunately, Yan Tielong still had the last bit of reason to reject Lord Feishuicheng's kindness.

After remembering what happened at yesterday's dinner, Yan Tielong's head pain was not very serious, so he immediately called the caravan's logistics member and asked him to prepare dozens of brothers to bring the thousand weapons that Viscount Bai Xiyue and the others had obtained. At the same time, let all the brothers with iron weapons change to wooden weapons, and wait until around nine o'clock to go to the city lord's mansion together.

After hearing Yan Tielong's order, the caravan's logistics members immediately took action. The time soon reached around nine o'clock, so Yan Tielong led a dozen carriages to the city lord's palace.

After Yan Tielong led a dozen carriages to the City Lord's Mansion, the soldiers guarding the City Lord's Mansion had already been ordered to open the door to let Yan Tielong and the others in. Then the steward of the City Lord's Mansion began to inspect the thousand weapons and equipment brought by Yan Tielong.

After the butler inspected it, he was very dissatisfied with the quality of the weapons and equipment brought by Yan Tielong. After all, many of the weapons and equipment were not even opened, and some even showed rust.

"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains and Winds"

Faced with the butler's dissatisfaction with the quality of the weapons, Yan Tielong also said helplessly that all these preparations were guard weapons, and those guards did not maintain them at all, which was why the current situation occurred.

After hearing Yan Tielong's explanation, the housekeeper felt that Yan Tielong was sincere. After all, the equipment of the soldiers in their military camp in the city was also under-maintained. However, the housekeeper still bargained a lot because of the poor quality. This also made Yan Tielong dissatisfied, so the two parties began to negotiate prices. Negotiations were held, but unfortunately the butler was still more skilled, and Yan Tielong agreed to sell the weapons and equipment to the other party at three times the market price.

The steward was naturally very happy that he could get a bargain from Yan Tielong, so he was very happy to give the money. However, he still asked Yan Tielong about when the lord's food would be delivered?

Seeing that the butler was very happy to pay the gold coins, Yan Tielong immediately said that he could hand over the money at any time.

After the housekeeper listened to Yan Tielong's answer, he suddenly thought of something and asked Yan Tielong to come to him, and then whispered to Yan Tielong to cause an accident while transporting the grain so that unknown people outside could see the grain.

After Yan Tielong listened to the butler's instructions, he understood, so he resigned, took the money and left.

Back at the rented manor, the caravan had been ready for a long time, and then Yan Tielong ordered the caravan members to carry the food and accidentally scatter the food.

After the instructions were given, the main caravan started running to the hidden warehouse of the lord of Feishui City to get grain from the hidden warehouse, and then transported the grain into the official granary of Feishui City.

Soon the people of Feishui City learned that their lord had spent a lot of money to buy a large amount of grain, which made the people in the city feel at ease. At the same time, many wealthy merchants selling grain saw the fishiness in it, but there were also many grain merchants who saw business opportunities. , so Yan Tielong received many banquet invitations.

Looking at the invitation from the grain merchant, Yan Tielong naturally wanted to participate. After all, he needed a batch of grain.

Soon Yan Tielong reached an agreement to purchase a large amount of grain from those grain merchants. When the banquet was over, many people suddenly broke into the banquet. Even people from Yan Tielong's caravan broke into the banquet. These intruders all sent a message to everyone at the banquet. This The news was that they refugees launched a surprise attack and almost took control of the city gate.

After the soldiers guarding the city gate fought off the refugees and closed the city gate, Feishui City was actually surrounded by nearly 60,000 refugees.

After learning that the city was surrounded by refugees, Yan Tielong and the wealthy merchants and grain merchants had no intention of having a banquet, so everyone said goodbye to the host of the banquet and then arranged their own arrangements.

After Yan Tielong returned to the rented manor, the member in charge of intelligence told Yan Tielong that the lord of Feishui City had attacked. Unfortunately, because there were not enough people at the time, he was driven back to the city by refugees, and asked Yan Tielong about his arrangements?

Yan Tielong asked the members in charge of intelligence about the deployment of the four gates of Philippine Water City and the location of the main focus of refugees.

After learning a lot of information, Yan Tielong also began to respond accordingly. If Feishui City was captured by refugees, they would be able to escape.

After arranging the retreat, Yan Tielong sent someone to tell the lord of Feishui City that their caravan was willing to help defend the city.

However, Yan Tielong's good intention to help defend the city was rejected by the lord of Feishui City, and their caravan was also monitored by men sent by the lord of Feishui City.
