Chapter 700: Buying and Selling

"How much money is there?" After Yuan Xi asked this, both of them immediately showed a sense of vigilance. Money and grain were the capital of these two brothers. If they took out the money and grain, then they really would not have the possibility of turning the tables.

You should know that although the two are sitting together now, their suspicion between them has not decreased at all.

Now when Yuan Xi asked this, everyone became alert.

Yuan Xi couldn't help feeling bitter when he saw his eldest brother and his third brother. Could it be that God really doesn't bless him, the Yuan family? Why did his father like him and his eldest son look at him in such a state?

"Brother, third brother, this money is not for me, Yuan Xi, but for buying food and grass!" Yuan Xi said to his eldest brother Yuan Tan and third brother Yuan Shang.

"If I don't have the second brother, I don't trust you. You and I are a brother!" Seeing Yuan Xi's appearance, Yuan Tan laughed. He knew that he had wronged Yuan Xi and judged a gentleman with a villain's heart. However, the third brother Yuan Shang over there was also the same appearance, which made Yuan Tan feel a little relieved.

"That's right, brother, second brother, if you want money, just take it at will!" Yuan Shang also said very freely, but if Yuan Xi didn't say it, our third young master Yuan would be able to turn against him on the spot.

Although Yuan Tan felt bitter in his heart, he also knew that the enemy was in front of him, and this was not the time to consider other things.

"Second brother, I have 150,000 gold in my hand!" Yuan Tan took out a number and said to Yuan Xi.

"Second brother, I also have about 100,000 gold." Yuan Shang also said his number. 100,000 gold, 150,000 gold. This is 250,000 gold. This is not a small number. From this we can see that the old gentry's background is huge. Look at Sun Ce from Jiangdong. After the defeat of the Battle of Yangtze River, the entire Jiangdong could not afford money. Sun Ce was basically empty in his pocket. Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang were now driven out of Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou by Cao Cao. It can be said that the strength of the main topic has shrunk by more than half, but he can still take out these hundreds of thousands of gold. Moreover, Yuan Xi really knew that these money was not the limit of his two brothers. If these two brothers really went all out, Yuan Xi believed that 500,000 gold would be fine.

"Okay, 250,000 gold, 150,000 gold to buy grain and grass, 100,000 gold to buy armor and weapons, and equip the army!" Yuan Xi told his plans to his two brothers. A 150,000 gold to buy grain and grass, which is enough for the army to consume about 300,000 stones. As long as you persist, Cao Cao's 300,000 army will not last long. Because 300,000 people will also have to eat, drink, defecate and scatter. The food and grass in Qingzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou, were either taken away by Yuan Tan and Yuanxi, or those who could not be taken away were burned by these two brothers. This is still a good thing. Therefore, in addition to occupying the food and grass obtained by Yecheng at the beginning, Cao Cao also wanted food and grass to be transported from Xu Du from Zhili, Yanzhou, which was too expensive.

"Second brother, please be honest, where can we buy food, grass, armor and weapons now?" Yuan Tan frowned and asked. The west side has been completely blocked by Cao Cao. Cao Cao would never allow a slight grain and grass to be sent to Youzhou. The north side is the territory of foreign tribes. Those Wuwan people and Xianbei people are not enough to eat. As for weapons and armor, they are even more jokes. They don't have iron ore and will not make irons.
