244:The Controversy over the Grain Shop (5)
"Not counting the three grain shops in Liufu, there are still 28 large and small grain shops in the river, after reducing the price once yesterday, all of them have taken a look at the posture today, which shows that they have doubted the grain storage of our grain depot. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoIn that case, why don't you coax them to come and buy food?"
For a grain store, a few thousand stones of grain is a lot of money, but if twenty-eight are practiced, it is nothing at all.
Jiang Pengji has carefully budgeted, leaving a part for purchase restrictions, and the other part is all sold at a high price to these wronged leaders.
Xu Ke: "......"
Suddenly, he has a kind of loneliness where heroes are useless.
My own Langjun is too capable, and I am so sad to be my right-hand man!
"Yes...... Will they really do that?"
Xu Ke didn't know anything about business, and he was a little apprehensive.
In fact, Jiang Pengji doesn't know much, after all, she is a genetic warrior, combat is the mainstream of her life, and most of the skills and knowledge she learns are closer to practical combat, but the information of the era she lives in is extremely developed, and she always knows some things.
is not an expert, but it is still possible to draw gourds in the same way, not to mention the suppression of commerce in ancient times, she can naturally play with it.
"Naturally. Even if we don't let out the news that the reserves are insufficient, they are already secretly tempting. ā
In business, Jiang Pengji is a layman, but if you want to talk about pit people and seek maximum benefits, she is the ancestor of this industry!
Whether it is the ancient times or the era before her, as a general, she is not a reckless person.
On the contrary, most of these people are wise and foolish, and they seem to be coarse, but they have a lot of eyes in their hearts.
Jiang Pengji can be favored by her old boss, stand out from many candidates, become the commander of the army, and lead the army, which is naturally good.
"Let the shopkeeper pay attention to it, and write down the faces and faces of every person who buys grain, as well as the grain they buy. Jiang Pengji said, "If the expectation is good, these grain shops should send people to quietly buy grain from our grain stores to test the truth." ā
She continued, "What you have to do is let the to, who was prepared in the morning, spread the rumors, and at the same time let the shopkeeper and the guys secretly play tricks. ā
Acting?
What kind of play?
Naturally, it was not enough to secretly talk about the grain storage, so the shopkeeper asked the master how to move next.
As long as the people who came over to buy grain "overheard" this and brought it back, Jiang Pengji's purpose was achieved.
Xu Ke sighed in his heart and said, "Okay, Ke will go down and do it." ā
"Well, go ahead. ā
Don't look at Xu Ke's age, but he is thoughtful and calm, and Jiang Pengji has always been very relieved to hand things over to him.
Jiang Pengji is like a god, and after noon, several people did buy a lot of food, and one of them even bought a whole stone!
One stone, if it is other times, the people who have a little surplus money at home can afford it.
But at a time when food prices are soaring, a stone is terrible.
Until the sunset, the guy from the Liufu grain shop hurriedly ran into the grain shop from the side door, so anxious that he didn't care about wiping his sweat, and looked at the shopkeeper in a panic, as if there was something important to report, but because of the presence of other people, it was difficult to say it directly.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper put down the guests he had received, and talked with his buddies in a corner, and could faintly hear words such as 1,900 stones, not enough, and the interior of the grain shop was very noisy, and there were people buying grain everywhere, and the conversation between the two was difficult to hear if it was not intentional.
However, among this group of people who buy grain, many "grain buyers" are all the eyeliner of other grain stores.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Eyeliner replied, "It's true, I really heard them say that the grain storage is less than 19,000, and if you continue to sell it like this, you won't be able to last a few days." ā
After hearing this, the former muttered for a long time and made a decision in his heart.
In addition to the three grain shops in Liufu, the other 28 grain shops are counting on making a big profit this time, and seeing that the people who bought grain have gone to the rival stores, they are also anxious in their hearts, and even two have decided to reduce the price on the second day.
When I heard the news at first glance, I was as excited as if I had been beaten with chicken blood.
1,900 stones, which is not much to be distributed among the twenty-eight grain shops.
If they eat this batch of grain in Liufu, they will be able to continue to increase the price logically, and it will still be profitable.
Now the news of the civil unrest in Cangzhou is intensifying, and the displaced people have not only affected Zisang County, but even spread to the river, this is a good time to make a lot of money.
In a word, buy, buy, buy!
So, on the third day, the three grain shops under the name of Liufu ushered in a large wave of grain buyers "people", which also drove the real grain buyers, so that those people who still want to continue to be prosperous made up their minds to buy ...... They have all heard the rumors, and the cheap food in Liufu is almost gone!
If you don't buy it now, you can only buy food with a sky-high price in the future, and if you can't afford it, you can only starve to death.
On the third day, the grain store's business reached its peak.
Until the grain shop closed, there were still many people who had not bought food lingering at the door, and the shopkeeper and the man could only persuade them to leave in a soft voice, "Today's grain is sold out, if you want to buy it, come back tomorrow, now the grain store is closing." ā
The people looked at each other, but in their hearts they thought that the shopkeeper's words were just perfunctory, and their hearts were extremely lost.
On the fourth day, the business of the grain store was still good, but it closed before noon, which further confirmed the rumor that the grain store was short of food.
"Hmph, Liujun has merit in governing the party, but he doesn't know anything about business, and he is stupid to give up the watermelon and throw the sesame seeds. ā
Many people laughed secretly in their hearts, Liufu did make a lot of money, but that's all.
If you had calmed down, you could have earned five or six times as much money!
On the fifth day, the grain shops in Hejian County seemed to have been discussed, and they adjusted the prices of their own grain stores upward.
The price is here, if you love to buy it or not, if you don't buy it, you will wait for the family to starve to death.
It's just that the expected customers didn't come, and after careful inquiry, the shopkeepers of several grain stores almost had a heart attack.
I thought that the grain shop in Liufu would not open again today, but the people found that they had opened their shop earlier than usual.
"Eh, what's this?"
The people looked at the sign erected outside the grain store and couldn't understand it.
"It's a purchase limit. ā
At this time, a man in a cyan Confucian shirt was holding a feather fan in his hand and standing in the crowd.
"What is a purchase limit?"
One hundred people, ninety-nine illiterate, where do they know what to restrict.
For the scholars, the people are respectful, and they have made way for the officials to make it easier for him to see the signs.
He stepped forward calmly, read the contents of the sign clearly and clearly, and then explained it in a way that the people could understand.
"The grain shop is still open, but each person can only buy a family of four for two days of food a day, and they don't sell it if they have more. ā
Purchase limit?
This kind of selling method is unheard of and unseen, and many people feel a little unsuitable for it.
If so, doesn't that mean they have to go to the barn every two or three days?
Why can't you just sell it all at once?
What do you do with all this trouble?
