Chapter 546: Natural Disasters Have No Food and Grass

The grain trading of the Great Dynasty was almost monopolized by the four major families, and the Li family was even more powerful. After a previous life, she knew the importance of food to the people. Therefore, in order to prevent them from raising prices, in order to allow the people to have food to eat, for almost a year, Murong Jinyun's people did not stop the purchase and hoarding of grain, and it was not only limited to the capital, almost every state and county in the Great Dynasty Kingdom, they were involved, it is conceivable that the current situation is all in their hands.

This is a great opportunity for them!

"You mean... Murong Jinyun's eyes lit up, he was concerned about it, how could he forget this stubble? The food they had hoarded in their hands was enough for the people of the dynasty to eat for a whole year, so what else could he worry about?

Mu Yueli saw Yun Jin's excitement, and a smile rose at the corner of her mouth, "Cousin, in the next period of time, I will trouble my cousin, remember, at this time, the price of grain cannot be increased, of course, this price is only for the common people, for some poorer people, it is also possible to send food regularly, but for those high-ranking officials and nobles... ”

When Mu Yueli said this, a touch of treachery flashed in her eyes, at the beginning, this grain was purchased by Murong Jinyun at a high price, but it cost a lot of silver, of course she couldn't lose money, the wool came out of the sheep, so let those high-ranking officials and nobles be the unlucky sheep, bear a little more, paused, Mu Yueli continued to speak, "Set ten times the price first! ”

Murong Jinyun was shocked in his heart, even Hai Sa couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Mu Yueli's words, and treated him differently? If he were someone else, with so much grain in his hands, he would definitely increase the price across the board and make a lot of money, but Mu Yueli only raised the price for the dignitaries and nobles, and the price was ridiculously high! For the dignitaries and nobles, she set a sky-high price, and she could even deliver it for free to the poor people!

"Will this cause a backlash from the dignitaries and nobles?" Murong Jinyun was surprised, but also a little worried, after all, if all the dignitaries and nobles gathered to protest and make trouble, then the matter would not be easy to calm down.

Mu Yueli just smiled faintly, "Rebound? I'm not forcing to buy and sell, anyway, it's such a price, if they buy it or not, if they rebound, they will play the banner of the second son, see if they dare to make trouble, they can also choose not to buy, then, they will only be hungry, the right to choose, in their hands, right? I didn't force them!"

The choice is in their hands, but the resources are in their own hands, and in the end, they have to choose if they don't choose, even if they are reluctant, no matter how much their hearts are like knives, they have to endure the pain and buy at a high price.

Mu Yueli's face was full of confidence, and the whole person was radiant, she could arrange it like this, naturally she thought of all possible obstacles, to say that this Hai Sa came back in a really timely manner, under the banner of the second prince, these dignitaries and nobles more or less knew how the second prince and the prince of Haisa were courteous to Emperor Chongzheng, and even their emperor was polite to three points, and if they wanted to make trouble, they had to weigh their own weight.

"Haha... Okay, I'm fine anyway, I'm going to have to intervene in this matter. Hai Sa put down the teacup, his face was very interested, according to his prediction, this time Mu Yueli, I am afraid that it will set off a big storm in the entire Great Dynasty Country!

"In this way, it will be annoying to the prince of Haisa. Mu Yueli naturally would not refuse such a good helper, with Hai Sa, many things are easy to solve.

"Of course, our real purpose is to replace the entire Great Dynasty and the grain stores that originally belonged to the four major families, I think after this time, the future Great Dynasty will only have us 'food for the sky'!" Mu Yueli's eyes shone with a firm light, the rice industry is the biggest support of the Li family, if this support is crossed, then it is equivalent to a heavy blow.

The reason why she did this was all to prepare a feast for the Li family, and it seemed that it was time for this feast to begin! She really wanted to see what kind of wonderful expression Li Qing would have when she learned the news!

Lee's Mansion, inside the study. Li Qing listened to the steward's report, the whole person was like a lightning strike, he had always been calm and introverted, at this moment he was full of panic, and even his body was trembling faintly, "How much grain is left in the granary?"

The steward's brows tightened, and he shook his head helplessly, "No, there is nothing left, there are still some, but some time ago, the lord said that the grain harvest in the new year is about to be completed, so he simply took advantage of the fact that someone was buying, and sold the rest of the original granary, making room for the purchase of this year's newly harvested grain, but... But.. "But who would have expected that such a natural disaster would come when the harvest was about to be harvested.

Li Qing's body staggered, and his face turned even paler, "It's gone?" No, it can't just be gone." ”

What this means Li Qing couldn't be clearer, without food, what he is most worried about is that the Li family's grain numbers scattered in various places will be completely replaced at this critical time, how heavy the blow to the Li family will be, he can't think about it.

The steward sighed, and knew the seriousness of this matter, but it was gone, what else could he do? He had never seen the master so worried.

"Quick, go and invite Master Nangong Yan, Master Su Feng, and Mu Jinyan to come to the mansion for me, and say that there is something important to discuss. Li Qing thought of something and said firmly, no matter what, he had to get through this difficulty.

The Nangong family, the Su family, and the Zuo Xiangfu have all received the news, and their reactions are almost the same as Li Qing's, hearing Li Qing's summons, the three of them did not stop at all, and rushed to the Li Mansion non-stop, and the three of them entered the study one after another, and saw that the head of the Li family, the head of the four major families, in the study was full of sadness, and several people knew each other in their hearts.

"Brother Nangong, Brother Su, Master Mu, this time, you have to help Li. Li Qing did not shy away from it at all, and after inviting a few people to sit down, he immediately explained his intentions.

Nangong Yan frowned, "Brother Li, you are for the food." I can't hide it, I'm afraid I can't help this thing, in the granary of the Nangong family, there are no grains left, some time ago, I saw someone buying at a high price, and I saw that it was time for a bumper harvest of grain in the new year, so I sold it all, hoping to exchange some more working capital, and this year I bought a lot of new harvest grain, but how do I know... Ay... ”

Li Qing's face turned pale, and then Su Feng, the master of the Su family, also sighed, "Who would have thought that there would be this natural disaster, this is unstoppable, now it's good, my Su family's warehouse has no food." ”

Although Mu Jinyan didn't speak, his ugly expression had already made it clear that his Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion was no better than them, they all had the same idea at first, but they were collectively planted on it.
