Chapter 423 Request

Soon, she met the magistrate of Zhou Shize, the parents here again.

In the court, the other party seemed to have just finished talking with the subordinates next to him and was a little tired, but when he saw their arrival, he was still cheering up and asked with a little confusion: "This girl, I heard that you have something important to ask for my meeting with me, but I don't know what it is? If there is anything about caravan trading, I must support it with all my strength."

In mountain villages with inconvenient transportation, in addition to being prone to fierce mountain people, it is also prone to scarce supplies and low quality of life. Caravans like this are rare channels for communicating with the outside world to exchange materials, so they naturally need to strongly support them.

Miss Wen nodded slightly and said slowly: "Tell me, the little girl's name is Wen Bingyan. This time she passed by this place, it was indeed a matter of commerce. But it was not about buying and selling supplies, but about buying something with all her might!"

"Oh?" Zhou Shize was not surprised, because his subordinates had already discovered a strange place when they searched the village. The caravan came to the merchant but did not bring anything. Instead, they brought all gold, silver and treasures. No wonder they were so attractive to those bandits.

He pondered for a moment and asked, "Miss Wen, you might as well say, what do you want to buy with so much money? If it is available locally, the transaction will not be a problem."

Miss Wen hesitated for a moment and said solemnly: "Food!"

"We want to buy all our money and food!"

"And it's far more than that. In the future, our Wen family will send more caravans, including my brother, just to buy enough food!"

She said word by word, with a sincere look, not like she was lying.

However, these words made Zhou Shize stunned on the spot and looked at her in disbelief.

"You said...grain?"

Use so much money that is almost as rich as a wealthy businessman to buy food?!

Not to mention whether you can buy it, so many foods may be enough for people in the entire county!

But naturally he would not think that the other party was crazy or something else. He must have had other hidden information. He asked carefully: "Miss Wen, can you ask, why did your Wen family spend all their money to buy so much food? Do you want to change careers and do food transactions?"

Miss Wen seemed to have expected that he would ask this question, but after a slight meal, he slowly explained: "To be honest, our Wen family has been doing business in Peishan area for many years, and they have not involved much in the transaction of grain, but this time it is a forced..."

"Peishan?"

When Zhou Shize heard this place name, he was shocked. He seemed to think of something and frowned: "I have heard something before. It seems that the grain harvest in Peishan has not been very good in recent years..."

"This year, there have been no harvest!"

Miss Wen sighed softly and added for him.

"In Peishan, the land is full of dead seedlings, and I can't buy a grain of rice in the rice shop. So far, I don't know how many people have starved to death, how many families have died..."

"If it weren't for this, how could we have traveled thousands of miles to come here to buy food?"
