Hearing this, the faces of the dozen or so grain merchants immediately fell.

"What's that?" A grain merchant said, "They also put grain at market prices?" ”

"Still shameless?" Another grain merchant said, "What about the good house?" ”

"Yes." The third grain merchant said, "Haven't they always claimed to benefit the country?" Why did you learn from us this time? ”

"Guys, don't go too far, we're a fair deal, when did we exploit someone? Don't talk nonsense! Three black lines floated on Chen Dasan's head, and he continued, "The question to be discussed now is, should we eat the grain in the hands of Zhao Qin, Lin and Xiao!" ”

"How is this possible?" A grain merchant immediately objected, "The current grain price has risen to two cents per catty, if it is eaten in small batches, it is nothing, but although the grain of Zhao Qin, Lin and Xiao is not as much as ours, there are always more than 10 million catties, right?" How much does it cost to eat it all? More than two million oceans! ”

"yes." Another grain merchant also complained, "Where can you raise so much money?" ”

When it came to the soaring food prices just now, they were happier than anyone else, but now that they are asking for money, they start to complain one by one, and Chen Dasan's heart is really crooked.

But no matter how tired he is, he can only endure it, because his Chen family alone can't make this food hegemony.

At that moment, Chen Dasan said patiently: "It's okay if you don't eat, then let Zhao Qin, Lin and Xiao and the four families release the grain, but I want to remind you that the total purchasing power of the millions of people in the entire Yinjiang city and seven counties is limited, if the Zhao Qin, Lin and Xiao families empty out the money of those mud legs, our grain will all be smashed in our hands." ”

"How can this work?" Another grain merchant shouted, "Isn't this a busy day, but let the four of them pick up peaches on the ground?" We didn't catch anything? ”

"Didn't catch anything?" Chen Dasan sneered, and said, "No, you're wrong, you can still get a belly of grain, but I want to remind you that if you miss this store, you won't be able to sell your stomach of grain, or you have to sell it, you have to sell it at a loss!" ”

"No, no, no, this is absolutely not going to work!" Another grain merchant shouted.

"Since you know it won't work, don't hesitate!" Chen Dasan patted the case and said, "Isn't it two million oceans?" Go home and squeeze the ba, after all, you can still squeeze out, if you can't go to the money bank to borrow, even if it is five cents of interest, a dime of profit, it is also a steady profit, and you can see it in less than half a month! ”

As soon as they heard this, more than a dozen grain merchants began to complain again.

"Old Uncle Chen, my family really can't squeeze out."

"My family too, the last 50,000 oceans were all borrowed from the mortgage of the old house."

"I'm worse than you, I'm using my own 5,000 acres of paddy fields as a mortgage."

"I said Old Boss Chen, your Chen family has a big business and strong financial resources, otherwise the grain of the four families of Zhao Qin, Lin and Xiao will be eaten by your family, and in the end it will be your Chen family that earns the most, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Chen, what do you think? Or is that it? ”

Chen Dasan slapped the coffee table in front of him and said sharply: "Since this is the case, then let's break up like this, everyone go back and sell the food in their hands quickly, and ask for more blessings." ”

"Old Dongdong Chen, are you going to give up the united front?" A grain merchant's eyes immediately turned red, and he said sharply, "Why can't you do this?" If you do this, won't the price of food collapse instantly? We can't even sell the original two cents, but our grain is all collected for five, seven, or even a dime, and we must not pay for death? ”

"If you don't want to lose your life, then hurry up and find a way to raise money!" Chen Dasan said coldly, "I still want our family to eat, my Chen family has to have this strength, why did I pull more than a dozen of you in the first place?" ”

"Come on, then we'll go back to raise money, let's go back."

In the face of the cruel pressure of survival, more than a dozen grain merchants finally confessed.

Sending away more than a dozen grain merchants, Chen Qifan said disdainfully: "It's time for these people to look at things, they don't want to be in the same boat, they still want to be opportunistic and watch the fire from the other side!" They don't want to think about it, once the grain hegemony fails to be made, the biggest loss is the dozen or so of them! ”

"But we can't leave them yet." Chen Dasan sighed lightly, and said, "Qi Fan, you immediately take my post to Zhuji County to find Master Jing of the 194th Division, we did this according to his wishes, and now that we are in difficulty, he, the mastermind behind the scenes, can't say nothing." ”

"Yes!" Chen Qifan replied respectfully.

……

Cangcao Street, Jiangdong, the old number of the Zhao family.

This is a money bank opened by the Zhao family in Jiangdong.

Speaking of which, it is necessary to emphasize that the wealthy businessmen in Yinjiang in Shanghai are basically engaged in money and banking, even if the main business is not the money bank at the beginning, they will definitely go to the same end and enter this industry, and the township party that has entered this industry will not only not be squeezed out, but will all kinds of help.

This is in stark contrast to the Jin merchants, who are also engaged in the banking industry, but most of them are inclined to each other, and they dare to use any means in order to suppress their fellow competitors.

But the Yinjiang Merchant Gang didn't have such a thing.

Therefore, many merchants in Yinjiang are engaged in the silver and money industry.

Like Xiaogang Zhao's family, there are not only many banks and money banks in Shanghai, but also many money banks in Yinjiang.

Besides, Zhao Xingjiu, after the meeting of the municipal government, did not return to Xiaogang immediately, but called home and asked the family to sell food, and then Shi Shiran came to the old Zhao family.

Jiang is old and spicy, if Zhong Yi's judgment is reliable, then after the four families of Zhao Qin, Lin and Xiao start to release grain, the Chen family and the more than a dozen grain merchants who are secretly colluding will definitely eat it! But Zhao Xingjiu was very sure that the Chen family and the dozen or so grain merchants probably had no extra funds, so they would definitely come to Qian Zhuang to borrow.

By three o'clock in the afternoon, there was really a grain merchant on the counter.

"Isn't this the king's treasurer?" Zhao Xingjiu smiled, "What do you say, don't take advantage of it?" ”

"Isn't it?" Shopkeeper Wang said with a smile, "There is a small problem in a business, so I want to temporarily borrow 20,000 oceans from the counter to cross the bridge, but Zhao Laodong, please rest assured, at most half a month, the principal and interest will be repaid." ”

"Short-term misappropriation, the interest is not low." Zhao Xingjiu said with a smile, "20,000 oceans, half a month, and 25,000 oceans with interest!" ”

"What did you say?" The king's shopkeeper exclaimed, "Isn't it five cents of profit?" ”

"It turned out to be the original, and now the price has increased." Zhao Xingjiu said with a smile, "Everything is rising in price this year, if Qianzhuang doesn't follow the price increase, how can he live?" ”
