The heavy rain in early autumn rains one after another, and it won't take long for the autumn harvest to come after the rain stops.
This year is a good year, at least judging by the current rainfall, there is no need to worry about the danger of drought.
And enough rain means abundant water, at the moment when the grain is about to ripen and is about to be filled, the more abundant rain means, the fuller the grain grains.
Unfortunately, when the flood came, everything changed.
"How much has the price of grain risen in the county now?"
"Seven times!
In three days, the price has risen sevenfold, and not only we are buying grain and grass, but also the big families in the city are also buying grain and grass.
I thought this year would be a normal year, but no one expected that someone would blow the dam open! ”
He Yongding shouted excitedly, as if he saw a cart of white silver smashing towards him.
Very shameless He Yongding's expression, of course, even more shameless of his own approach.
"I ordered that when the price of grain rises tenfold, I will gradually ship it, and strive to sell out all the grain and grass that I have hoarded within seven days."
He Yongding's expression was slightly unwilling, and he struggled: "In previous years, when there was a famine, the price of grain would rise at least fifteen times......
We ......"
The other party wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wang Fang: "Do as I say, they are different from us, such a thing can only be done once!" ”
As if to warn himself, Wang Fang muttered to himself, "You can only do it once." ”
Whether it's the price of food or famine, it's the ordinary people who hurt the most.
And for now, more than seven times the profit, is enough.
After the orders were issued, as much as thousands of stones of grain and grass were transported to the county seat.
The big farmers were still immersed in the joy of the flood and frantically bought grain and grass.
At this moment, there is less than a month before the autumn harvest, and last year's grain reserves have already been consumed, and judging from the current rainfall, the flood has a further expansion posture.
This is a harvest season, but it is artificially pulled into the famine.
Three days ago, when Yang Jiu and the others had just left the city, Wang Fang ordered the supply of sweet potatoes to be cut off, and when the flood came, the entire county was in a panic.
The sweet potatoes are gone, but the flood is coming, and when the season is not harvested, what should I do with tomorrow's rations?
This is an unsolvable problem, at least in the eyes of those who have a heart, all of them are a harbinger of famine.
Of course, this is only the opinion of some people, at least in the eyes of the people in the valley, it is not that simple.
……
Half a month later, when the grain and grass in his hands were sold to dozens of large households in the city in batches, Wang Fang ordered again:
"Tell us to go down and put all the sweet potatoes we harvested in the second crop, as well as the sweet potatoes that grow on the hillside, into the market."
The first crop of sweet potatoes is 900,000 catties, and it is precisely by relying on the first crop of sweet potatoes that Wang Fang leveraged the grain prices of the entire county.
And in his hand, there is a second crop of sweet potatoes.
In six months, a total of 800 acres of fertile land were cultivated in the valley area, and in addition to 500 acres of paddy fields, there were also 300 acres of mountainous land.
Among them, 500 acres of paddy fields were artificially damaged, and only 300,000 catties were harvested in the end, while 300 acres of sweet potatoes in the hillside area were successfully harvested, a full 700,000 catties.
In other words, Wang Fang still has a million catties of sweet potato reserves in his hands at the moment, and it has still not been put into the market.
As he spoke, as if he was afraid that his actions would attract jealousy, Wang Fang continued:
"You don't need to go to the county to sell, just sell in the villages around the county, even if the other party has no money, even if you are on credit, you have to sell all the sweet potatoes within one day!"
"Even if you throw them on the street near the county seat, you have to throw them all away!"
After the orders were issued, more than a dozen figures scattered.
The worried eyes stared at the scattered figures, if the previous actions only slightly touched the tiger whiskers of the big families in the county, then the current actions are tantamount to pulling teeth from the tiger's mouth.
"Wang boy, I didn't expect you to be scared."
Lazily stretched, Manniang looked at Wang Fangdao with a sneer:
"But I didn't expect that this guy of yours is so bold, if it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would have been scared to death."
Glancing at the other party speechlessly, Wang Fanggang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a figure rushing up:
"He Lao Wu, are you crazy!"
"Do you know what your previous actions mean!"
If there was one person in the valley who could understand Wang Fang's actions, then this person must be Yang Yutang.
As the only scholar in the valley who has received an orthodox education, and the only one who has been taught by a lifting person, at this moment, Yang Yutang's face was filled with a complicated look, and he screamed:
"A million catties of sweet potatoes, once they are put on the market at this time, you know what it means!"
With a fixed gaze, he put his gaze on Yang Yutang, Wang Fang nodded and said, "I know!" ”
"Now that you know, why do you want to do it, do you know who is collecting grain in the county right now!"
"I know."
As he spoke, he snapped his fingers and said: "A county order, a county magistrate, a master bookkeeper, a warden, a total of two jinshi, seven lifters, fifteen large households, and thirty-five talents."
It can be said that as long as those who have the ability to collect grain, they are collecting grain. ”
As if he couldn't believe it, Yang Yutang was stunned and said: "Since you know, why do you have to do it, do you know that once the price of grain subsides, the biggest loss will be these people who collect grain at high prices, and each of them can easily pinch you and me to death." ”
"I know."
After nodding, getting up and walking twice, Wang Fang turned to Yang Yutang and asked, "Do you know why I don't want you to participate in the valley?" ”
Yang Yutang was stunned for a moment, and then said inexplicably: "Isn't it because I'm a scholar, and your teacher doesn't allow scholars to join?" ”
"No, it's not that simple."
"To tell you the truth, it's just because of the difference in identity."
"You are a scholar, and we, including Manniang, are all mud legs, do you know who the mud legs hate the most."
"Corrupt officials and corrupt officials, profiteers and powerful businessmen."
"Yes, you know."
Wang Fang walked again: "Hoarding and raising the price of grain, causing the people to sell their children and daughters and be displaced. ”
"Yes, I don't deny that this famine started because of me, but why, the parents and officials of these people, and these virtuous and virtuous squires, also want to get rich with me!"
"If they can follow me to get rich, why can't they let the people follow me to get rich!"
"By the way, I almost forgot if you didn't say it."
"Tell them to go down and let the people in the vicinity sell all the grain they have in their hands to the big families in the city, and tell them that the autumn harvest is coming soon.
And there are people who will help them to divert the flood away. ”
"You're still going to drain the flood away!"
Almost pointing at his fingers and scolding, Yang Yutang's face turned red and said: "You will offend all the rich people in the city to death, they will hate you to death!" ”
Too lazy to explain too much, Wang Fang said calmly:
"Yes, they will hate me to death, and they will even issue a wanted warrant, but what do those have to do with me, I have changed my name now, my name is Wang Fang, Green Forest Bandit, Spider-Man Wang Fang."
"And, from beginning to end, there is no name of He Tiedan, nor the name of He Lao Wu, only the name of Spider-Man.
Also, who would believe that it was an eight-year-old kid who presided over the price of food. ”
As he spoke, Yang Yutang turned around and left.
looked at the other party's distant back in a daze, and Manniang on the side laughed and said:
"Boy from the Wang family, it seems that your daughter-in-law is gone, and this guy will not marry your sister-in-law to you if he is killed."
He frowned slightly, and said speechlessly: "This seems to be the only loss." ”
