Ahetai nodded and left.

Remaining, Zhou Peng said: ”Now are you relieved? Lord Yelu has spoken, are you still in a hurry to sell grain?”

Hearing this, everyone said: ”Haha, not in a hurry, not in a hurry.”

Everyone spoke in accord, they were still at odds with the Fishing Guild, not believing the Fishing Guild could really suppress the grain prices. If it really didn’t work out, they would simply stop selling in Mianshui. They wanted to see if Chen Jiusi could resolve the grain shortage in Mianshui without them.

And at this moment, what about Chen Jie?

He was in front of the Commandery Princess.

”Greetings, Commandery Princess.”

Zhao Ya looked at him and said: ”Chen Jiusi, your ’100,000 stones’ of grain have already arrived in Mianshui, why are they not selling the grain yet? If they never sell, what should we do?”

Chen Jie replied: ”Commandery Princess, they still have hope, hoping to transport the grain out of Mianshui.”

Zhao Ya said: ”Ah, what should be done? We can’t let them take the grain out of Mianshui, otherwise with the grain we have, it won’t be enough for the people to eat, people will starve to death!”

Chen Jie said: ”Commandery Princess, please be at ease. I have come today to ask the Commandery Princess to order the eradication of the Zoroastrian Sect rebels in Mianshui.”

Zhao Ya: ”Zoroastrian Sect, where is there time to eradicate them now, while grain is the priority, Jiu Si.”

Chen Jie said: ”Commandery Princess, ordering the annihilation of the Zoroastrian Sect rebels will resolve the grain issue.”

Zhao Ya said: ”Does the Zoroastrian Sect have grain?”

Chen Jie said: ”They probably don’t.”

”Then what is the use of eradicating them?”

Zhao Ya asked urgently, hearing this Chen Jie said: ”Commandery Princess, eradicating the Zoroastrian Sect rebels can seal off the transport routes of Mianshui, including land and water transport, does the Commandery Princess not understand?”

Zhao Ya was stunned and looked at Chen Jie: ”You mean, pretending to eliminate the Zoroastrian Sect rebels, is actually to block all transport routes, so that they can’t transport grain out of Mianshui?”

Chen Jie smiled and said: ”Exactly.”

Zhao Ya said: ”This, Chen Jiusi, your move is very clever, this is what you referred to as the killing move, right?”

Chen Jie smiled and said: ”The Zoroastrian Sect is abnormally rampant in Mianshui, the Commandery Princess should issue a court order for their eradication. During the eradication, no personnel can leave Mianshui, including ships, carriages, especially transport goods, who knows if they might be hiding Mianshui rebels inside, what does the Commandery Princess think?”

Zhao Ya said: ”You are really cunning, fine, let’s do it as you said, the Fishing Guild blocks the road, I’ll issue a notice.”

Chen Jie said: ”I obey the order.”

...

The notice was posted that very afternoon, immediately causing a stir throughout Mianshui, eradicating bandits?

The Fishing Guild had already received advance notice and immediately blocked all water and land routes, people could pass, carrying a small personal bundle could pass, but bulk goods were not allowed through.

This was equivalent to cutting off all retreat routes for the Suzhou merchants.

At this time, a group of people hurriedly rushed to Shen Wansan’s residence.

”Brother Wan San, a great misfortune has occurred!”

Shen Wansan already knew of this news, and his face was full of despair; this move by Chen Jiusi was just too ruthless, wasn’t it like shutting the gate to beat the dog?

They had walked into his trap, and now wanting to get out was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Meanwhile, the people from the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce were all terrified, rushing to Shen Wansan and saying.

”Brother Wan San, what should we do now, Mianshui has blocked all transport routes, we can’t even leave if we want to.”

”Yes, Brother Wan San, today our cargo ship wanted to leave, but was stopped by the Fishing Guild, and they even suspected that there were demon people of the Zoroastrian Sect on board.”

”Right, we asked for inspection, they said no inspection, they just wouldn’t let us pass, obviously they want to trap us in Mianshui County.”

”Yes, Brother Wan San, what should we do, what should we do now!”

A circle of people surrounded Shen Wansan, chattering, while Shen Wansan also broke out in a sweat, this move by Chen Jie was truly too vicious, leaving Shen Wansan without any room to struggle.

The Suzhou Chamber of Commerce people became even more anxious.

With a wry face, someone said: ”Brother Wan San, this grain is the bottom-line goods from our elder brother’s house, if it fails here, I am finished.”

”Yes, Brother Wan San, you must stand up for us, back then we all came based on your word, you can’t just deny responsibility now!”

”Yes, Brother Wan San, you need to take responsibility to the end.”

Many merchants surrounded Shen Wansan, speaking fervently, when Chang saw the scene he angrily said: ”What kind of people are you, okay with earning money together, but when losses happen, you want our Master Shen to be responsible, you are all in trading, where in the world is there only profit without loss in business!”

Hearing this, the merchants exchanged glances, then one merchant said: ”You little staff know nothing, when we said we wanted to sell, it was your Master Shen who stopped us, now there’s a loss, if he doesn’t take responsibility, who does?”

”Right, if he doesn’t take responsibility, who does!”

A group of people chattered, while as they spoke, suddenly a staff came running in urgently, shouting: ”Something bad has happened, something bad has happened.”

Everyone looked towards him, only to see the staff say: ”The Beggar Sect’s Zhou Peng, Firewood Guild’s Liu Rong, County Magistrate Tang Wannian, local scholars, the Zhang family, the Wang family, they are all selling grain, now prices have already fallen below twenty cents, to only eighteen cents!”

”Ah! What!”

Hearing this, all the Suzhou merchants stood up in disbelief, they actually all started to dump, to sell, then what about us!

Thinking about it, everyone simultaneously looked at Shen Wansan who was sitting, and Shen Wansan then self-deprecatingly laughed and said: ”Haha, I lost, I actually lost.”

After speaking, Shen Wansan directly stood up and started to walk out.

The crowd looked on anxiously and asked: ”Where are you going?”

Shen Wansan said: ”I am going to see Chen Jiusi!”
