When Zheng's rice shop once again put out the price of "one hundred and fifty yuan and one stone", which was exactly the same price as Zhao's rice shop, the Ruyang people who were crowded on the street to watch the excitement cheered again, probably because they felt that Ruyang Zheng's was really a foreigner, and gave them a long face in Ruyang.
But Zhao Yu, who was on the second floor of Zhao's rice shop, said to Jingnu with a smile: "Zheng Qian is afraid. β
Hearing this, Jing Nu tilted her head slightly, and her two willow eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, obviously not understanding why her young master was so determined.
I saw that her lips were as light as danfat opened slightly, as if she wanted to ask something, but immediately, she seemed to think of something again, and puffed out her face and didn't speak.
There was a brief silence in the room, where there were only two people.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu turned his head to look at Jingnu strangely: "Jingnu, why don't you speak?" There are just the two of us in the house, and Zhang Ji is not here, if you don't speak, I won't be able to continue. β
The little master's childish complaint, Jing Nu couldn't help but purse her lips and wanted to laugh, only to see her pretend to be angry, puffing out her face and saying: "I don't ask, if I ask, the young master will definitely think I'm stupid, and then he will bully me......"
"How so?"
Although he said so, looking at the cute appearance of Jingnu's puffed face, Zhao Yu really couldn't control his hands, and couldn't help but want to pinch her face.
It didn't mean anything else, he really thought Shizunu was very cute. - Probably because of the age.
"Okay, okay, don't bully you, don't bully you, you ask."
"Really?" Jing Nu asked glutinously, and then asked according to Zhao Yu's meaning: "Young master, why do you say that Zheng Qian is afraid?" β
"Look, so I can get on with it."
Zhao Yu touched Jingnu's hair, and immediately under the latter's wrinkled nose in protest, he turned his head to look at the Zheng's rice shop outside the window, and said: "I just said that this Zheng family is arrogant, and so is Zheng Qian, just now we dropped it to one hundred and eighty Wen, and he lowered it by ten dollars at once, which is obviously to be anti-customer-oriented, and in turn put pressure on us." β¦β¦ Of course I won't let him, so I immediately lowered another twenty yuan, but I didn't expect this Zheng Qian to be empty......"
"Is he scared?" Jingnu's eyes lit up, and her face was a little happy.
"Ah, he's scared." Zhao Yu nodded and said, "But it shouldn't be because of the price, but because of my reaction, he can't tell if I have thought about it, or if it's just a matter of will...... Oh, it's taken advantage of the age. β
Jing Nu nodded as if she didn't understand, and asked, "Now let's talk to him about the Zheng family, it's one hundred and fifty yuan and one stone of rice, right?" Will the young lord descend again? β
Speaking of this, she showed a slightly distressed expression on her face, and persuaded: "Young master, don't reduce the price again, right?" Much better......"
"Hmm...... Oh well, listen to you. β
Zhao Yu reached out and rubbed Jingnu's hair.
Seeing that her little master actually listened to her own advice, Jing Nu was first startled, and then showed a little joy on her face, but in an instant, this joy was quickly replaced by a look of gain and loss: "Will this affect the young master's plan?" Young master, slave is just distressed......"
Looking at Jing Nu's appearance of suffering from gains and losses, Zhao Yu smiled and told the truth: "Amuse you." β¦β¦ Now that I have decided to fight to the end with the Zheng family, how can I give up halfway. The reason why this price is maintained for the time being is because there is not much rice in the store. Our chief steward is also too cautious, so he only brought 200 stone meters, how can this be enough? I'll fight with that Zheng Qian a few more times, maybe the two hundred stone rice will be sold short today, isn't that a joke for the Zheng family? Wait for two days first, and when the follow-up rice and grain are delivered, we will fight with him slowly. β
"I see." Jing Nu nodded in realization, and then she realized that she had been deceived again, and puffed out her cheeks in feigned anger.
In this way, Zhao's rice shop still maintained the price of one hundred and fifty yuan, and there was no movement after waiting for half an hour, which made everyone in Zheng's rice shop, including Zheng Qian, the prince of Ruyang, breathe a sigh of relief.
Of course, the angle of relief between the two is completely different: Wang Zhi and others care about the price, while Zheng Qian realizes that Zhao Yu on the other side is still a little sensible.
All in all, under the mutual restraint of Zhao Yu and Zheng Qian, the grain price war of the day finally ended with one stone and one hundred and fifty yuan.
I have to say that this is a little disappointing for many Ruyang people.
"This Zhao clan is just violent, why is there no movement here? If you lower the price a little more, I'll buy a stone for a hundred dollars!" β
"Forget about the Zhao family, the Zheng family has no movement...... You say, did the two families reconcile in private? β
"Wouldn't it? Then I'll take advantage of this price to buy some quickly. β
I have to say that Zhao Zheng's two rice shops suddenly died down, which made the Ruyang people watching the excitement on the street a little confused.
Most of them think that these two may have been in contact in private, after all, according to common sense, fools will always do this kind of thing of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, isn't it good for the two to join forces to make money?
With such an idea, at first those Ruyang people who were watching couldn't sit still, thinking that the price of grain and rice would return to the original price after the reconciliation between the Zhao and Zheng families, or even a price higher than the original, so they poured into the two rice shops one after another to buy grain and rice.
At this time, there is no need to deliberately distinguish between Zhao and Zheng, anyway, the price of both is the same, and whoever buys it is the same.
Around mid-afternoon, Zheng Qian asked Wang Zhidao, "I just asked you to send someone to keep an eye on Zhao's shop, how is the situation?" β
Of course, Wang Zhi knew what his son was asking, and immediately replied: "I just asked someone to calculate, so far, the shop on the Zhao family's side has sold about one hundred and fifty stones, and we are about the same, a little more than them, one hundred and sixty or seventy, it can be seen that the county people are still biased towards our Hou Mansion." β
Zheng Qian nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, and then snorted coldly: "Hmph, that kind of bias is dispensable, if the Zhao family lowers the price again, these people will definitely go to the queue again...... In short, let's do this first, let's see what tricks the Zhao father and son have first. β
"Yes."
Wang Zhi nodded.
At the same time, on the second floor of Zhao's rice shop, Zhao Yu was also instructing Zhang Ji and Ma Cheng.
"Zhang Ji, leave the matter here to Ma Cheng, you go back to Luyang with me. β¦β¦ Ma Cheng, after I leave, you look at this shop, if the Zheng family is forced to reduce the price, you will keep the same price as him, and you don't need to force him too much, after all, we will not have enough grain and rice here, and we will discuss it when the newly sent grain arrives. β
"Yes." Zhang Ji and Ma Cheng nodded, and clenched their fists to receive their lives.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu was taking Jing Nu downstairs, but suddenly saw a guard walking up, Zhao Yu and the others originally thought that something had changed, and subconsciously turned their heads to take a look, but they were stunned to find that the one who went upstairs was the chief of the guard in the house, Zhang Chun.
"Uncle."
Zhang Ji and Ma Cheng immediately greeted each other, but Zhao Yu had a bad premonition at the moment.
You must know that Zhang Chun, the chief of the guard, and Cao Ju, the chief steward, are the right-hand men of Zhao Yu's father Luyang Township, unlike Cao Ju, who is responsible for many household chores, Zhang Chun, who is in charge of the guards in the mansion, is generally only responsible for protecting the Xianghou Mansion and the family business of the Xianghou Mansion, and will never stay away from the mansion casually, unless ......
"The townsman is here, and he wants the second son to go see him immediately." Zhang Chun said with a smile.
"Is Steward Cao's side exposed?"
Zhao Yu nodded curtly.
Following Zhang Chun, Zhao Yu took Jingnu and Zhang Ji to leave from the back door of the store, and after turning an alley, Zhao Yu saw a carriage at the mouth of an alley.
His father, the Marquis of Luyang, was staring at him from the car window.
Zhao Yu hurriedly stepped forward to salute his father: "Father." β
"Get in the car." The Marquis of Luyang ordered seemingly calmly.
took Jingnu to board the carriage together, and there was only one person in the carriage, the father Luyang Xianghou, and Zhao Yu sat in front of his father with a sneering face.
At this time, I saw the Luyang townsman looking his son up and down, and said with a little mockery: "Yu'er, didn't you say that you went to the county seat to go shopping, why did you come to Ruyang?" β
Zhao Yu pretended to be stupid and said, "Isn't the child in the county seat......"
Hearing this, the Marquis of Luyang turned his face and said slightly angrily: "Shut up!" Are you getting more and more bold, dare to do such a thing as cutting first and then playing? Do you still think of being a father? β
Zhao Yu smiled and flattered: "Dad, look at what you said, the child has always respected you the most." You say one, but the child will never dare to say two......"
After hearing this, the Marquis of Luyang sneered: "You won't say it, you just do it!" What am I telling you? From the long term, from the long term, you really think that Ruyang Zheng is a mud kneading, you can knead it as much as you want? β
Hearing this tone, Zhao Yu also guessed that his father must have understood, so he simply didn't pretend, spread his hands and pretended to be helpless: "Anyway, the store has already opened, and war has been declared with the Zheng family, what should you do, Dad." β
"Wow!"
The Marquis of Luyang Township was happy, and picked up the ring ruler that had been prepared from the side with one hand, preparing to implement the family law.
is the so-called filial son under the stick.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu's eyes widened slightly, and he hurriedly shouted to stop: "Dad, tiger poison doesn't eat children, have you forgotten the kindness of the child who relieved you that day?" β
"Kindness?" The townsman of Luyang was angry and funny: "You talk to me about kindness?!" β
However, Zhao Yu's words also made him have some concerns.
Think about it carefully, this kid is expensive, he can't beat - if he beats this kid, the Zhou family will definitely make trouble with him, and the most troublesome thing is that his old father-in-law Zhou Shouzheng may immediately kill Lu Yang and fight with him.
The old man......
The townsman of Luyang was really a little empty in his heart.
If you can't fight, then ...... Grounded?
But the grounding can't teach this kid a lesson, this kid goes to coax his mother, and his mother may be soft-hearted.
The townsman of Luyang spent half a full incense stick thinking about how to teach his son, but after thinking about it, he suddenly found that he, a father, couldn't teach his son a lesson?
