Chapter 77: Transportation of grain

Uluci's words made Wuli, the president of the Weigan Chamber of Commerce, fall into deep thought.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Spaniards are not defeated, and it will be a matter of time before they can be killed back to Vigan.

The Viet-Gansu Chamber of Commerce did not cooperate with the Ming army, but would the Spaniards believe it?

He glanced at the figure of Mingren who was busy standing on the dock in the distance.

If the Spaniards return to Vigan, those Ming and rich businessmen will inevitably be retaliated by the Spaniards.

So what about the Weigan Chamber of Commerce?

What if these Spaniards really don't care about mercy?

"Father can understand my good intentions now." Uluci took the black tea handed over by his servant and savored it carefully.

"Using the excuse of pirates attacking the port, shelling the docks and killing the Ming army.

There is a reason for this, so these wise people don’t have to say much?

And if the Spaniards come back, we can take this opportunity to seek credit.” Uluci explained.

"So, what if the Mingren really blames him?" Lao Wuli spoke. As the president of the Weigan Chamber of Commerce, he naturally did not agree with Uluci's approach, but it was hard to say anything else.

But after the pier incident, the Ming people were surprisingly quiet.

Apart from repairing the dock and treating wounded soldiers, there was no big move.

Especially the Weigan Chamber of Commerce did not pursue the matter to the end, but instead calmed down the situation, which made Wu Li feel a little unusual.

"Father, you are really old." Looking at Wu Li's sad face, Uluci shook his head,

"If we had not maintained the stability of Weigan, could these bandits easily occupy Weigan?" Ulu looked at the Ming people on the dock with contempt and disdain.

"Whether these Ming people or the Spanish come to Weigan, they need the support of us local merchants. What if the Ming people know that we did it on purpose?"

Seeing that Uluci was so arrogant, Wu Li didn't say anything more, but just sighed slightly and turned around and walked towards the shore.

Just as Wu Li was walking towards the shore in a daze, a man with a rat-tailed braid with money was looking around and heading towards the dock.

"Oh, isn't this the boy of the Zhao family? What wind has blown you to the chamber of commerce." As soon as I saw my father leave, I saw a man with a stingy look on his face, and Uluci recognized the person at a glance.

"Oh, Master Wu." After seeing Uluci, the man hurriedly came forward.

"What wind blows you to the chamber of commerce." Uluci had no good feelings for this person, or he had an instinctive disgust towards the Ming people, and looked at the man in front of him with contempt.

The man was not angry when he saw it.

"Master Wu, I am also from the Chamber of Commerce, how can I divide each other?" the man smiled.

"Hmph," Uluci snorted coldly.

"Didn't your Zhao family join the so-called Four Seas Business Company of the Ming people? Shouldn't you separate each other? If the Red Russians come back in the future," Before he finished speaking, Uluci looked at the man contemptuously.

Looking at the man's originally smiling face turned pale, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Master Wu, don't scare me, this red-haired ghost is still ravag." Zhao Ke's face was pale,

"Besides, I am just a branch of the Zhao family. It's not the turn of the red-haired ghost to come back to settle the matter." He shook his head, and the braids on the money rat behind his head trembled with a burst of laughter. He looked at the servants beside him and laughed.

"I said to Zhao Ke, for you have been staying in my casino for a long time, I would like to remind you to clear your relationship with those wise people as soon as possible, otherwise, don't blame us Weigan people for being unkind." Uluci said in a cold tone.

Listening to Uluci's words, Zhao Ke also smiled bitterly and couldn't help but shake his head.

"It's still the young master Wu who is merciful. He is still considering me, Zhao. He is like those Ming people who go out to sea and are robbed by pirates and killed people. Now he has boarded seven merchant ships, which is so annoying." Zhao Ke looked sad and angry.

"Young Master Wu, I'm going to say that our Chinese merchants have suffered a lot these days with Mingjun. I regret it."

"Okay, you've just told me what you have." Uluci didn't want to listen to Zhao Ke's nonsense anymore, so he waved his hand impatiently and let him explain his purpose directly.

Seeing this, Zhao Ke smiled and said, "Master Wu, you have also seen that our Chinese merchant dock was destroyed by pirates. Even the merchant ships were burned and burned, and our head of the family almost didn't get angry and carried them over. Even I could see that these Ming people were afraid that they would not work. The Zhao family naturally had to consider the way out, right?" As he said that, Zhao Ke took out a cloth bag directly from his pocket. A golden luster could be seen in the gap between the cloth bags. His eyes widened as he looked at the servants beside him.

Zhao Ke seemed to show off on purpose, and then handed it to Uluci.

"The Zhao family doesn't have much else, but there are only a lot of gold and silver. All three hundred taels of gold have been shipped to the casino opened by Master Wu, and the master will test it."

Uluci grabbed the cloth bag and put it gently into his sleeve without saying a word.

"What the hell do you Zhao family want to do?" He glanced at the servant with a wide eyelid on the side. When Uluci stared at it, the few people lowered their heads one after another.

"Our Zhao family saw that this Mingren was almost out of reach. They really caught their hearts and joined the Four Seas Business Company. Now they naturally want to go back."

"You are offending the red-haired ghost. Even if you ask for Weigan Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce will not help you." Uluci directly refused.

"Master Wu, you misunderstood." Zhao Ke smiled,

"The Zhao family wants to transport a batch of goods to Manila." Zhao Ke whispered in Uluci's ear.

"Oh, shipping the goods." When Uluci heard this, he became interested.

"What's the product," Uluci asked.

"Six ships of grain." Zhao Kedao.

"Haha, this Ming people prohibited Weigan from smuggling rice to sea, smuggling one bucket and killing one finger, and smuggling one ship requires a boat to be human heads," Uluci said.

"That's why I want to ask the Vigan Chamber of Commerce." Zhao Ke said softly.

"I'm afraid it's not just six grains, but six grains are worth three hundred taels of gold?" Uluci looked at Zhao Ke coldly, his face gradually getting colder.

"I can't hide it from Master Wu. In fact, the food of the six ships is fake. In fact, there are gold, silver, jewelry and porcelain hidden in the grain."

"Oh," Uluci was surprised.

"I also heard my uncle's words after drinking. The Zhao family has been operating in Nanyang for more than 20 years, and naturally there is no shortage of gold, silver and jewelry. Seeing that the Ming people were going to lose, they naturally had to spend some money to manage their future."

"This ship is going to be transported to Manila. I heard that Governor Juan loves porcelain the most. If he transports six ships of gold, silver and jewelry and his favorite porcelain, he might be happy and pardon our Zhao family." Zhao Ke explained with a smile.

"Oh," Uluci suddenly realized,

"That's why we found our Weigan Chamber of Commerce and we will take the boat off."

"Yes," Zhao Ke nodded.
