The young master was taken aback and sized up Li Zhao again.
Although the young man was tall and muscular, he was no older than fourteen.
At such an age, it was as if he had experienced the hardships of life. He was extremely mature and could actually say such a thought-provoking sigh. It had to be said that he was indeed extraordinary.
"This little brother is indeed a little different…"
The young master surnamed Cheng touched his ears and clicked his tongue in wonder.
The young master changed the topic and curled his lips."Maybe someone taught him. I don't believe that he has such a compassionate bearing at such a young age. Would he really give up the opportunity to make a fortune and keep selling grain at a low price?”
"That's true. Chumo, let's go and try him.”The young woman's eyes lit up as she had an idea.
"Let's try, let's go Yiyan sis.”
The young master called Cheng Chumo was interested. He took a big step forward, but just as he took half a step, the young woman grabbed his ear.
"Ouch, it hurts! Miss Xiao, let go!”
Cheng Chumo's protruding ears were in pain from being pinched, and he begged for mercy.
"What did you call me?”Xiao Yiyan's almond-shaped eyes widened, and she looked annoyed.
"Aunt Xiao, I misspoke. Your nephew is wrong, alright?”
"Hmph, that's more like it." Only then did Xiao Yiyan let go of her hand and raised her nose in satisfaction.
Cheng Chumo rubbed his ears and muttered," What? You're clearly not much older than me. Why should I call you aunt?"
"Your father calls my father uncle and is on the same level as me. What's wrong with you calling me aunt?”
Xiao Yiyan rolled up her sleeves, and her five slender fingers were about to pinch him again.
"I'm convinced. I don't dare to be dissatisfied." Cheng Chumo quickly covered his ears and escaped, muttering," Duke Song is already so old, but he still has a daughter. His health is a little too good…"
The two of them arrived at Li Zhaoguan Pass one after the other. Cheng Chumo immediately put away his aggrieved look, pushed out his slightly plump belly, and put on the appearance of a businessman.
"I say, little brother, I want to buy your food.”
"Oh, then please queue up." Li Zhao didn't even look at him.
Cheng Chumo was a little embarrassed. He coughed a few times and laughed,"Little brother, you might not understand what I mean. I want to buy 50,000 dans of grain from you. I should be considered a big customer, so there's no need to queue.”
Fifty thousand dans!
It was not a small sum, and it was equivalent to buying half of the grain stored in Zhuzi Village.
Li Zhao frowned slightly and glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. He coldly replied with two words-not for sale.
"Why not? Are you afraid that I can't afford it?" Cheng Chumo was unhappy.
Li Zhao ignored him, not even bothering to explain.
How could ordinary people afford 50,000 dan of grain? This fatty was most likely a grain merchant, wanting to buy the grain of their Zhuzi Village at a fair price and sell it outside at double the price to earn a huge profit.
It was just a profiteer's trick, how could Li Zhao not see through it?
"You bought so much food, what did the others buy? My Brother Zhao said that each person can only buy two buckets to prevent profiteers like you.”
Zhao Yu-er didn't show any mercy, and she exposed Cheng Chumo's intentions with a small mouth.
Xiao Yiyan, who was secretly observing from the side, looked at Li Zhao with admiration and nodded slightly.
Cheng Chumo was unwilling to give up and raised two fingers."I'll pay twice the price."
Li Zhao was indifferent.
"Three times!" Cheng Chumo added another finger.
Li Zhao finally turned his head and looked at him.
Cheng Chumo thought that Li Zhao had been lured by the huge profits and was finally going to show his true colors. The corners of his lips curled up into a smug smile.
"The grain of my Zhuzi Village is used to save lives, not for profiteers like you to make money from national disasters. If you know what's good for you, get lost immediately. I'm in a good mood today, so I don't want my fists to be stained with blood.”
Li Zhao resolutely refused.
Not only did she reject his offer, but she also scolded him until his head was covered in dust.
Cheng Chumo's body shook, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He really didn't expect that this country boy in front of him would not be moved by small profits. He really had the heroic spirit to treat money as dirt.
At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a faint respect for Li Zhao.
However, Li Zhao's "scram" had angered him. He knew that it was just a test, but he still became angry.
"Brat, your tone is so arrogant. I think you're going to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit-"
Cheng Chumo rolled up his sleeves, showing the intention to teach him a lesson.
Seeing this, Xiao Yiyan was afraid that the youth would be at a disadvantage. She originally wanted to stop him, but on second thought, she decided to use this opportunity to test the youth's courage.
She stopped in her tracks and quietly watched how Li Zhao would respond.
Kacha ~~
Li Zhao took a step forward, his cold eyes looking arrogantly at Cheng Chumo.
He had divine power, and with this step, he exerted a force of a thousand pounds, shattering the bluestone slab under his feet.
Cheng Chumo hissed and took half a step back. He looked at the broken bluestone in shock.
"Not to mention my father, even Uncle Qin couldn't break the stone slab with a single step. This youth actually has such divine power?”
