Chapter 57: Rush to buy
Su Jin got up and gave the shopkeeper a glass of wine respectfully, and asked himself if he was in the local area at that time, he would not have the courage of the shopkeeper, and he would have put it away at a high price, which was really a wise move.
Then Su Jin asked: "The Luzhou City Chamber of Commerce doesn't know if there is any movement, and I don't know if I know the news." ”
The shopkeeper Min said: "I don't see it, they didn't send people out of the city to purchase, these days are surprisingly calm, it seems that they haven't got any news." ”
Su Jin asked the shopkeeper of the garment shop, "Then how is Qin Dalang doing now?" ”
Zhao Dacheng's shopkeeper said: "Liu Dacheng rented a private house, the owner of that house is Liu Dacheng's distant nephew, Liu Dacheng let his nephew keep an eye on the point, except for someone who comes to find Qin Dalang quietly every now and then, there is nothing abnormal, the masters in the store are not allowed to talk to him about the affairs of the store by me secretly, but Liu Dacheng and I showed him some irrelevant things according to the meaning of the young owner." ”
Su Jin nodded and said, "Good job, maybe you can use him to help us this time." ”
Several big shopkeepers hurriedly asked, "How can I help?" ”
Su Jin said: "I'm wondering if he can bring the news of the great drought in the south and the rush to buy food from all over the country to the people of the Chamber of Commerce." ”
The shopkeeper was stunned and said, "How can this be, isn't this cheaper for them?" ”
The other shopkeepers didn't say anything, and their expressions were thoughtful.
Zhang Rongqin said: "The young owner's hand is indeed a good move, but it seems to be a little early. ”
Su Jin said: "Sooner or later, there will be a limit to the soaring food prices, and it will not rise to the point of two stones, so I think it's almost enough, if the price is too high, the Chamber of Commerce will not take action, maybe it will have no effect on them." ”
Zhang Rongxin smiled and said: "The young owner didn't understand what I meant, I mean to allow me Su Ji to search in Luzhou for a few days, it is best to buy out all the rice and grain in their warehouse, and then release the news, will it be better?" ”
Su Jin was surprised in his heart, he was already poisonous enough, but he didn't expect Zhang Rongqin to be even more vicious, this move was both ruthless and damaging, this was to completely step the Chamber of Commerce into the mud.
After a conversation between the two, the shopkeeper didn't understand at all, and said hurriedly: "What are you talking about, Zhang Da shopkeeper, how can you agree with the young owner to release such an important news to the people of the Chamber of Commerce?" Isn't that helping them? ”
Shopkeeper Hou scolded: "Old Ma, why can't your brain turn around? I can't figure out such a simple thing, Elm Head. ”
The shopkeeper shook his bald head aggrievedly and said: "The old man really doesn't understand the meaning of the young owner and the shopkeepers." ”
The shopkeeper muttered in his ear helplessly, the more the shopkeeper listened to it, the bigger his mouth opened, the more round his eyes became, and the expression on his face said everything, he couldn't have imagined that Su Jin would want to do this.
Su Jin pondered for a while and said: "There are not many coins in circulation on the counters now, we don't have such a big appetite to eat the stored grain around Luzhou, I'm afraid it's not so easy." ”
Zhang Rongqin said: "What the young owner thinks about is that in fact, you don't have to do this by yourself, the people also have to eat, just put the news on the street first, as long as the people have a grain store for three months, the grain store in Luzhou City will be exhausted in a few days, why do we need to do it." ”
Su Jin really obeyed, 80,000 people in Luzhou, more than 200,000 stone of March rations, I am afraid that those grain shops will really be swept away.
Zhang Rongqin continued: "The way the news is released is still to use word of mouth, you can go back and mobilize your relatives and others to go to buy a large amount of grain, tell them that the price of food is about to soar, and your relatives will definitely trust your words. ”
Su Jin said: "Then the shopkeeper Zhao will release the news of the great drought in the south through Qin Dalang, and it will be too late for the Chamber of Commerce to regret it." ”
Several Su Ji grain shop shopkeepers were Su Jin and Zhang Rongqin sang and harmonized, one by one listened to the cold sweat, this hand is absolutely vicious, forcing the Chamber of Commerce to go to various places to transfer grain, but the price of old grain in the important production areas of the south has soared, the cost of the Chamber of Commerce procurement has soared, and the high-priced grain and Su Ji's low-priced grain can not compete at all, if you do not purchase, it is equivalent to no grain to sell in the coming year, and hand over the Luzhou grain market to Su Ji, which the Chamber of Commerce never wants to see.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Su Jin will explain a little first, the battle in the mall did not need to be so fierce and tricky, and Su Jin was definitely not this kind of person, but Su Ji has been suppressed by the Chamber of Commerce for so many years, and the methods used by the Chamber of Commerce are even more despicable and shameless, and my father's death can be said to be indirectly caused by the Chamber of Commerce; What's more, the Chamber of Commerce began to repeat its old tricks again, and installed Qin Dalang in my Su Ji garment shop, perhaps wanting me to follow in my father's footsteps; That's why I decided to use a trick on them. ”
Everyone watched in silence as Su Jin's emotions became more and more intense, they could understand Su Jin's mood at the moment, his father was indirectly killed by the Chamber of Commerce, and Su Ji's industry was continuously suppressed, and there was nothing to worry about in counterattacking methods.
Su Ji is on the weak side, more than a dozen chambers of commerce have joined forces, Su Jin dares to confront the chamber of commerce, which requires great courage and confidence, and at present, it seems that there is no shortage of these two sixteen-year-old young owners.
"For some people, maybe I will follow the precept of repaying grievances with virtue, and be forgiving and forgiving, but for some people, I still have to follow the ancient precept of Sage Confucius, 'Repay grievances with virtue, how can I repay virtue?' Repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with straightforwardness! Confucius said, "If you repay those who do evil, then how can you treat those who are really good to you?" Of course, to be a good person, I have to be good to the good guy, and I will say one word to the bad guy: take the brick and fly him! ”
Su Jin slapped his hand on the table heavily, shaking the wine glass and dishes, he didn't know why he was so angry, maybe the genes in his body were the genes of the Su family, and the sense of belonging to the Su family made him leave himself.
……
Within a few days, there was a rush to buy in Luzhou City, and all grain shops in Suji hung up early 'The grain is sold out, please go elsewhere!' The shopkeeper didn't know whether he was happy or worried, and hurriedly reported after hearing the rumors that the price of grain was going to rise.
The Chamber of Commerce will be suspicious, relying on the sufficient inventory, some merchants suggest raising the price of grain to make a profit, anyway, the rumors are not credible, and they will go to replenish the stock after the sale.
Shrewd people such as the Tang family and the Liu family naturally don't think so, they acquiesced to the price increase of small merchants, but quietly sent people to inquire around, and after a day of crazy buying, news came one after another in the evening.
The first news to arrive was brought back by people sent out to inquire about the surrounding states and counties.
News 1: The price of grain in nearby Wuhu County has risen by nearly 200 wen and one stone.
News 2: The states and counties in the north of Luzhou did not raise prices, but their sales soared, and several grain stores in Huainan City, the Huainan East Road Governance Office, were secretly purchased all the grain, and the signs of grain sold out were hung.
News 3: The Su Ji grain shop under his nose closed down at the beginning, and hung up the "grain is sold out, please go elsewhere." 'Billboard.
As soon as the three pieces of news were summarized, Tang Dongjia, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and the two vice presidents couldn't sit still, there was too much problem here, the price of new grain had risen a few months before the market in previous years, but it was not so crazy, especially Su Ji's behavior was even more strange, saying that the grain was out of stock was simply nonsense, and the guy sent by his own family that day heard early in the morning that the Su family sent a few grain store shopkeepers to go out of the city, didn't they go out of the city to buy grain? It was only twenty days, and he said that there was no food in stock, and it was clear that there were ghosts inside.
Immediately after Scarface Heiqi brought a shocking news, when Liu Dacheng, the foreman of Su Ji's ready-to-wear shop, chatted with Qin Dalang, he inadvertently revealed the news of the drought in the south, and also said that the three major shopkeepers of the Su family went to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to buy grain with money, but they returned empty-handed, and the price of grain in the south has soared to the consistent 21 stone, Su Ji really can't bear it, so he has to go back empty-handed.
This news immediately made everyone in the Chamber of Commerce scorched and dumbfounded.
