Lin Xi was relieved to hear Cherry's words, today she knew that there was food to be transported, and she was afraid that these victims would be uneasy, so she specially asked Cherry to take a look and tell everyone about it, which also saved them from thinking too much.

"How is the business of this grain store?" Lin Xi asked.

"There are 30,000 people in the city, and these people need about 20,000 catties of grain a day for daily food and drink, and more than half of this grain comes from our grain store.

However, according to what Miss Wu said, the shopkeeper Wu did not sell more grain, and those who couldn't buy it went to other grain stores, and the prices were about the same, and the difference of a few pennies was acceptable. ”

Cherry said this, Lin Xi nodded, this is also the reason why she opened a grain store, she can't let everyone eat the grain in their grain store, but she can control the price of grain. Otherwise, the price of grain in the Northland may not have reached any level this year.

"But Miss, this is last year, the disaster is not serious, this year, these grain stores can't receive food from the local area, I'm afraid that they will buy food from other places, and the price will be higher!"

Cherry said that this year's disaster is even more serious, and many places only produce enough grain for their own food, so how can they still sell it.

"Don't be afraid, when the time comes, I will naturally have a way. Lin Xi said with a smile, she is not afraid that someone will play yin, nor is she afraid that someone will raise the price, as long as they dare, they must have the courage to bear the consequences.

……

Don't say it, Cherry is not wrong, there is indeed someone in Jinping City at this moment, in the courtyard of the Meng family, one or two shopkeepers with their faces covered are sitting in front of a table, you look at me, I look at you, and they don't speak.

"Everyone, since we are here, we are our own people, don't think about it anymore!" said the master of the Meng family, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and then smiled.

"Master Meng is really bold, in this case, how can we continue to hide our heads and show our tails!" The person who spoke took off the veil on his face, everyone was usually mixed up in the business field, and who didn't know anyone!

This time, the old man of the Meng family posted widely, and privately revealed that he wanted to confront the Lin family's grain store, which aroused everyone's interest for a while. However, these people have no heart, one or two of them dare not trust others, so they all come masked, and they are dressed in all kinds of clothes, and for a while, they are unrecognizable.

"Hehe, Master Bai is really so courageous!" When the Meng family master said this, he looked at the people around him with a pair of eyes, and sneered in his heart, he still wanted to get rich, but he didn't dare to make a move, this group of people couldn't help but think too well.

Seeing the two of them like this, everyone was also a little embarrassed, and took off the veils on their faces one after another. If you want people to make money with them, how can you not make some effort!

"Ladies and gentlemen, today Meng invited you here, also because the county lord of Anping has returned, and our life is almost over! You don't know if you have heard that the Lin family grain store in Jinping City has pulled hundreds of truckloads of grain over! Moreover, it is still the soldiers who are guarding it!"

As soon as the master of the Meng family said this, everyone's expressions were a little ugly, they were businessmen, businessmen were profitable, they also wanted a good reputation, but they wanted money even more.

This Lin family has always controlled and balanced the grain prices of the entire Northland. The Northland has suffered two years in a row, and it stands to reason that it is normal for these grains to rise three or four times. However, because of the Lin family's action, it has only doubled, which is obviously not right.

They are businessmen and want to make money, what does the life or death of the people have to do with them! However, they can't offend the Lin family, the Lin family has a special status in Jinping City.

"Moreover, as soon as the eldest lady of the Lin family came back, the Lin family's shop lowered the price of grain that day by three cents, and if it goes on like this, how can we make money while waiting! We bought grain at a high price last year, if this continues to fall, will we lose money!" said the old man of the Meng family, with a sad face.

Last year, the price of grain was high, and he also collected a lot, in order to gamble and see how it is this year. Sure enough, this year's natural disaster is still continuing, if it weren't for Lin Xi's deep well, now, it is estimated that there is no food in the entire northland, so what if he sells it for ten times the price!

Now, when he thought that his grain had not made any money, the old man of the Meng family felt a lot of pain, what a lot of money that was! They didn't even make it, it was all because of Lin Xi! What the daughter said was right, if it weren't for Lin Xi, they wouldn't have lost so much money.

Therefore, people are like this, they only see what they have lost, and they do not look at what they have gained. If it was really as the Meng family master thought, would Jinping City riot?

Why did the government not dare to open the city gates when the disaster broke out? Who knows what the result would be when tens of thousands of disaster victims poured into the city! This is still the case in other cities, and the cities in the north cannot be left alone, and when the time comes, they will know that stability is the basis for their merchants to make money.

"What Master Meng said is not wrong, this is all the fault of the Lin family, we could have made a lot of money!" said Master Bai, looking like the feeling of a good friend of the Meng family.

Hearing the words of the Meng family master and the white master, there were not many people who echoed it, although they also complained that they didn't make any money, they still had a conscience, so they couldn't bear to say anything bad about the Lin family. They just want to see if this Meng family master has any good ways to make money.

"Everyone, we can't go on like this, we have to join forces to make money and resist the Lin family!" The old man of the Meng family said this when he saw that everyone's expressions were fluctuating.

"How can we make money together?" asked a fat grain merchant.

"This old man Xu asked well, we are all the largest grain merchants in the local area, so no matter how powerful the Lin family's grain store is, it is impossible to supply the grain of the entire northern land! As long as we unite and hold on, we will be able to sell out the Lin family's grain if we don't sell grain for ten days and half a month! As long as the Lin family's grain is sold out! Then, how much this grain is sold is not up to us! It is sold five times or ten times, won't they eat!"

When the old man of the Meng family said this, everyone was stunned, this, can this be done? They are not worried about not selling grain for ten days and half a month, they are just a little worried about the government, but can they explain?

"What should I do with the government?" asked one of the masters.

"Naturally, there is no grain left! Now, there is no one in the north to sell grain, you know, our current grain is all transported from the south! We don't have the good conditions of the Lin family, and without the help of the imperial court, the grain is delivered a little late, what is impossible!"

The old man of the Meng family said with a smile, everyone nodded, the cost of transporting grain for them is indeed not low! Moreover, the price of the grain they bought is not low. This is a bit of a money, and it is also said in the past.
