"Military rations?"

"Could it be that the governor opened the treasury?"

"But if you open the treasury, you shouldn't set up a separate grain store, can't you just open a warehouse and release grain?"

Hou Fangyu ignored these people's distractions, and laughed instead: "Don't guess. This is the military rations of Shandong Town! ”

Without waiting for everyone to ask, he saw Hou Fangyu snort coldly and said, "What our actions are for, who doesn't know." This Zhu Cihong also seemed to react. Isn't the sale of grain and rice just to calm the people's anger and split up the joint discussion? ”

Hou Fangyu's mind turned quickly, and he guessed the subject at once. In fact, Hou Fangyu simply made an elimination method for this matter.

There is still food in Kaifeng City, and the first recommendation is the Henan official. But Gao Mingheng was already very difficult to maintain the army in the city, and he had to find a way to deal with the money and food in Shandong Town, how could he be so kind to calm the people's anger and maintain the life and death of the people in Kaifeng City?

In addition, there are also a large number of grain and rice are the wealthy families and merchants in the city. Most of these people are one. Even though some wealthy families do not buy and sell grain and rice, most of the wealthy merchants in the grain industry will definitely find a backer to maintain their own business.

But none of these people were co-opted by Hou Fangyu and Wu Shijiao, and gathered the remaining 50,000 stones in the city to focus on speculation. Obviously, it's not a private sale, because ...... There is no big wealthy family and big businessman who still has so much food!

As for other small grain stores, those who dare to sell at a low price have long been forcibly bought out, and only those small grain stores that are reluctant to sell but do not sell, hoarding and pretending to be dead are still surviving.

It's not an official warehouse, it's not a grain merchant, who would do this. Then only Zhu Cihong, the rookie leader who had just gained military power in Kaifeng, remained.

Hearing Hou Sui's explanation, everyone suddenly realized.

"It turned out to be Qin Xia. No wonder so much food can be produced. He has more than 10,000 soldiers under his command, so it's not surprising that he has food left. ”

"And I heard that the drills in Shandong Town are very hard. I heard that the money and food used to raise three soldiers are enough for one soldier in Shandong Town. This savings will be enough to sell it immediately! ”

"Speaking of which, we raised the price of grain and reluctantly sold it, forcing no rice to flow out of the Kaifeng grain store, and this Shandong town must raise military rations if it wants to fight. When the war is going on, the consumption will increase suddenly, and those who are not prepared to have enough money and food to serve as soldiers will rebel. This Qin Xia wants to stabilize the price of grain, temporarily relieve the worry of food shortage, and force us to sell grain to Shandong Town! The young man of the Wu family who had just arrived obviously had a lot of information, and he quickly figured out what it meant.

Hou Fangyu listened to this. just sneered: "Wu Lian, you are smart." But I can tell you, even if Qin Xia came and knelt down and begged me, don't even think about selling this grain and rice to Shandong Town! ”

Hearing this, everyone looked stunned.

These people follow Hou Sui to get rich, but without political backers, this fortune will not last long. Therefore, everyone naturally had to follow the line to the Hou family's side.

"We understand, so we will give an order and teach the people under our hands well."

"Please rest assured. Please rest assured, our family knows how to behave. ”

"Our Wu family doesn't have to worry about Hou Gongzi, there is no problem!"

……

Seeing this, Hou Fangyu's face suddenly eased. Looking out the window, the hanging Hengxin Commercial Bank said: "How much is our grain price unified now, and what is the plan for tomorrow?" Hengxin Commercial Bank. How much is it sold now? ”

"We're all pricing now. Today's selling price is 12 taels and 1 stones, and the limit is 5 liters per person. According to the plan. Our plan is to raise it to fifteen taels tomorrow, and one person is limited to three liters. Now Hengxin Commercial Bank is inquiring clearly. Buy for six or seven hours a day, sell at dawn, and close at sunset. One person is limited to one bucket, and the price of grain is eleven taels and one stone. It's all about the same amount of grain. "The one who answered Hou Fangyu was still Wu Lian, the son of Wu Shijiao.

"So, this Hengxin firm is planning to get out of the way and fight with us to the end?" Hearing Wu Lian say this, Hou Fangyu suddenly chuckled, and said with a smile: "Then let him see, how can we teach Qin Xia to open a trading house!" ”

An hour later.

Jiaojia rice line.

"Let's not act like a dead pig. Get out of the way! Hang the announcement! Several able-bodied men parted the crowd and hung a written white cloth on it.

Suddenly, several big words came into view, and they were clearly visible: "The price of grain, fifteen taels and one stone, one person is limited to three liters." ”

"The price has increased again......"

"How can this be, not only the price increases, but also the sale restriction is even more powerful. I don't want anyone to live. ”

"Black-hearted grain merchant, the price has risen again, and the price has risen again, and the coffin will have to be pasted in!"

……

Seeing that the price had risen again, the crowd of people who were still queuing suddenly began to talk about it.

Especially the manservant who was blocked and didn't buy it just now, and now he is watching the price increase, a man with a small hat in a green coat and a sturdy figure is even more indignant: "How can this be!" Our Master Li is also a famous gentry and talent in Qi County, and the provincial capital is also famous. Still so insulting, how can your firm do business? ”

"Love to buy or not to sell, why do you kid talk so much nonsense?" Hearing this man say this, the guy on the counter suddenly became impatient: "You're verbose, right, I won't sell you!" Get out of the way, next! ”

As soon as the guy spoke, suddenly there were two big men with big shoulders and round waists who were pulling the man in green clothes and hats like lifting a little chicken, and threw them on the road.

Suddenly, the manservant in green clothes blushed with shame, and his face seemed to drip blood with anger.

In this matter, suddenly a person ran over to help the man in green clothes and scolded: "Special mother, the price is still rising!" A bunch of profiteers! Don't think we don't know that a new Hengxin firm has opened at the entrance of Xishi Street. Their family's rice is only selling for eleven taels now, and they can buy five liters! There is Hengxin, who still buys your broken rice. Let's go, follow me to buy their rice! ”

As soon as he heard what this person said, the originally surging queue tide suddenly went by more than a dozen.

There are only a few people left who are unwilling to queue up in vain, or who do not believe that there is such a low-cost rice for nothing.

At this moment, look down from the sky. It can be clearly seen that when dozens of grain stores in the city have hung up the notice of price increase and sales restriction, the disappointed crowd has hope, and all of them have arrived on Xishi Street.

Their target is the rice line with the name of Hengxin Commercial Bank!

"What's going on?" Chang Zhilang said angrily: "Why are so many people here? ”

Chang Zhilang stood on the second floor of another restaurant he had just bought, looking at the terrifying crowd within a radius of 500 meters on Xishi Street: "It's only been less than half a day since the store opened, why are so many people here, this is ...... I'm afraid there are seven or eight hundred people! How long has it been? ”

The restaurant was bought and expanded as a store of Hengxin Commercial Bank. Zhu Cihong strictly ordered the store to open, so he hurried to hurry up and expand while opening the store.

"Isn't it a good thing that business is booming?" One of Chang Zhilang's men didn't understand.

"A good thing?" Chang Zhilang said abruptly: "It's too much." This trouble has just begun! (To be continued......)
