"But there is not much rice in the granary, if it is really sold short, how can the food of those victims be solved?"

Ding Shi wanted to stop talking, and he wanted to persuade his family not to sell it, so let's save a little!

"The time has not come, wait two more days." Xia's hasn't moved yet, and now he has to sell it. When the price of grain falls again, the grain will be bought back and filled into the granary.

"Many people have now gone to the home rice shop to line up to buy rice, and there is no one in front of the yajiao gate of our house."

Gu Chengyu nodded clearly, "Tomorrow, if the Xia clan still hasn't moved, we will also reduce the price, and it will be nine pounds." ”

As soon as Gu Chengyu finished saying this, Ding Shi was dumbfounded.

"My lord! Let's also sell nine dollars a pound? That's a real loss. "Ding Shi wants to cry without tears, his family is really not a family, I don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are!

Gu Chengyu shook his head, "This is only a lot of silver, and if you lose it, you will lose it." If we want them to release all the food quickly, we will have to pay some price. Rest assured! The grain in the granary will be replenished in these two days! ”

"Sir! Both the family and the Jiang family are selling rice, are we going to sell it too? One of the attendants hurried into the study, his tone tinged with urgency.

"What? How much do they sell for a pound? Patriarch Xia had a calm face, this family is not in harmony with their Xia family. Master Ju has a bad temper and is even more stubborn.

And this person is still very small, I don't know how he will collect grain this time, with his courage to do this, he can't do this at all.

This person didn't know each other last time, didn't sell food to himself, and now he's doing stupid things.

"The home is nine wen and one catty, and the Jiang family is ten wen. Today, the people are surrounded by people in front of the rice shop at home, and they are all going to buy rice and grain. ”

The entourage told Patriarch Xia about the grand occasion of selling rice and grain at home, and asked Patriarch Xia what he meant.

"Master, are we going to start selling rice and grain? If you don't sell it, the millet will sprout. These two families have hoarded a lot of food, and those people are not short of food, so if we don't sell it, it won't be a threat to them. ”

Patriarch Xia pondered for a moment, unwilling! How many states and counties did he run to in order to hoard food?

And the final price of the purchased grain is far more than ten cents, or even several times. If they were all sold for nine or ten dollars, wouldn't he be going to die at a loss?

"Is Yamen still selling rice?" Gu Chengyu was selling at a loss before, and now that Jiajia and the Jiang family have started to sell food, then Gu Chengyu has achieved his goal, and he will definitely not sell it anymore now.

The villain found someone to inquire about the rumors, saying that Master Gu's entourage bought a lot of rice and grain this time. If there is no business today, all that rice grain will definitely be smashed in your hands. And they also booked tens of thousands of stones in other places, and they would send them to Yingnanfu and Hangtianfu in batches every few days. The villain listened to them, as if he also had plans to sell them at a reduced price. ”

The entourage reported the news to Patriarch Xia, anyway, he felt that if he didn't sell grain again, he was afraid that in the future, he wouldn't even be able to sell a pound of Jiuwen.

Patriarch Xia was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect Gu Chengyu to buy so much grain, where did he get the silver? Could it be that all the money for disaster relief was used by him to buy food?

Maybe Gu Chengyu didn't expect that Jiajia and the Jiang family would sell grain at this time, the previous grain had already been bought, and now it was too late to regret it.

Now Yingnan Mansion is really not short of grain, and the people will definitely stock up on grain when they see that food is so cheap.

For a long time, the people did not worry about running out of food. What about the food in his storehouse? Brown rice and millet each account for half of the total.

At the time of Chutun, the price of grain remained high. If they don't sell it now, the price will be even more powerful in the future, and their Xia family will really have to cry and cry for their mother.

But what if Gu Chengyu is playing tricks? It's not impossible! If this is a ploy, then won't they fall for Gu Chengyu's way?

Patriarch Xia thought about it, but he couldn't make up his mind, "Wait!" Wait! ”

But within a day, Patriarch Xia couldn't sit still.

"You said that the Yamen really lowered the price?" Patriarch Xia's voice suddenly rose up, looking very surprised.

"That's right! It also sells for nine pounds. Now those people are wantonly stockpiling grain, as if they don't want money. Even the Jiang family has reduced the price, and they sell it for nine wen a pound in the morning. ”

Patriarch Xia was so anxious that he circled around the house, and if he sold it, he would have to lose money. Later, he had a lot of high-priced grain. Don't sell it! With so much grain smashed in his hands, isn't that a worse loss?

Just when Patriarch Xia was in a dilemma, a steward trotted into the house, "Master, the Jiang family has reduced the price again, and now it is a pound of brown rice." Seven liters of millet. ”

Patriarch Xia was so angry that his hands trembled, "These people are too angry, damn!" ”

"Sir! Let's sell it too! If they don't sell it, the price of food will fall even more. When the time comes, if you fall five or six times, won't you have to pay for death? ”

The steward's face was full of anxiety, and now that he sells grain, he can still get back most of the capital, and he only needs to lose a little silver. For Xia's, he can't hurt his tendons and can't move his strands.

But the person in charge is afraid that his master will drill the tip of the horns and refuse to sell the grain.

When the new grain comes down next year, there will be no one to ask for the old grain. Unless it's a few pennies cheaper than new grain, isn't that still a loss?

No matter how you calculate it, you will lose money, so it is better to minimize the loss.

"Sell it! Sold, sold! Patriarch Xia took a deep breath, and the expression on his face was extremely depressed.

He was distressed! Watching so much silver slip through my fingers is as distressing as a knife!

It's all these idiots, can't we just wait? After Gu Chengyu took all the silver to buy grain, he saw what else he used to buy grain.

Jiang family's ancestral house, Jiang Shouren looked at the account book in his hand and couldn't help sighing.

In the past two days, the price of Jiang's grain has dropped, and those people are like crazy, and the whole family has come to line up to buy food.

He understood that it was all hunger and fear. As long as they start to buy grain, they will stock up on grain until they have enough to eat next year.

However, in two days, half of his rice warehouse was empty. Although the silver can be quickly recovered, it is not profitable except for the capital.

He didn't understand why the master asked him to sell the grain at a low price now, obviously the master knew that most of the grain brought back by Master Gu was mud and sand.

"My lord! This is the account book, according to this trend, this time the hoarding of grain, can only be said to be no loss, and the profit is definitely not earned. ”

The man took the account book, glanced at it roughly, and saw the unwilling expression on Jiang Shouren's face, he couldn't help but snort coldly.

Throwing the account book on the table, the sound made Jiang Shouren startled.

"Humph! The master's decision-making is something you can question? Do you think that Master Gu has no money and can't afford to buy food and use sediment to fill up? No! He was reluctant to spend money on it. Do you know how much money he made by buying cloth from his home and selling it to other state capitals? ”
