Chapter 2589: Chapter 2589: Take Them All Down

To have a stockpile of 200,000 shi of grain, now that would be a fortune. How much money would you make when you sell it after the Northern Lands completely run out of grain?

But who exactly is backing Master Ji, that he could have 200,000 dan of grain for a person of his small stature?

“Master Ji, you’re not trying to bluff me, are you?”

“I have no interest in bluffing you. If you want to buy, it’s 100 copper coins per jin. You’re free to purchase as much as you can handle. If you don’t want to buy, I won’t force you. My business isn’t limited to Guangye City.”

Master Ji, having eaten enough, put down his chopsticks and stood up, ready to leave.

“Steward Hao, we’ve had enough food. I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t stay any longer. Farewell.” With that, he swaggered out.

Steward Hao watched Master Ji leave, clutching his teacup tightly.

“Steward, this Master Ji is too arrogant. Do you want me to go teach him a lesson?” one of his henchmen stepped forward and asked in a low voice beside his ear.

This Master Ji clearly doesn’t take our steward seriously at all. He just got up and left without finishing the conversation.

Hearing the henchman’s words, Steward Hao turned his head and swept a fierce gaze towards him.

In business, there’s always room for negotiation, but this Master Ji didn’t even give our steward a chance to bargain. He just left, setting the price directly at 100 copper coins!

This manner completely put him in charge, leaving no opportunity for Steward Hao to speak a word.

He couldn’t believe that even with such an attitude from Master Ji, his steward would do nothing?

Even if it’s not possible to take direct action, they could still teach Master Ji a lesson behind the scenes. Such matters are within the capabilities of these henchmen.

“Get lost!”

Was he unaware of Master Ji’s arrogance?

But what could he do? The grain was in Master Ji’s hands. He couldn’t seize or rob it; he could only buy it back and endure for the time being.

He did want to handle Master Ji and let him know that Guangye City wasn’t a place where a mere Master Ji could dominate.

Taking a deep breath, he thought about dealing with Master Ji once the grain was secured. By then, he would have plenty of ways to handle him.

Money, right?

Whatever amount of money Master Ji swallowed, once he had the grain, he’d make Master Ji spit it all back out!

“Pass down the order, prepare the horses. I need to personally make a trip to Wuwang County.”

This news, he had to immediately report to the master, to let the master decide whether to take over this batch of grain.

“Yes, Steward.”

The henchman responded promptly and went to make preparations.

…

After leaving Manxiang Building, Master Ji returned to the Government Office.

“Did you eat and drink your fill?”

Sheng Qingyu was waiting for news from Master Ji. Seeing him return with a satisfied look, he asked.

“Only they would indulge in pleasure at this time,” Master Ji commented.

Although he had eaten, he was really displeased with Steward Hao and his small group having a whole table full of dishes. This seemed like he was taking advantage yet playing naive.

“Now that you’re back, go report to Prince Zhan and Prince An Yang,” Sheng Qingyu said.

“There’s no need.”

Master Ji shook his head and didn’t go to find Qian Jiyun and the others.

“Prince An Yang previously instructed to only report after the task is done.”
