"Brother Tan, it seems that the entire county has fallen into your rumors, and this thing is very good!" Mu Jing looked at Tan Zong, who was becoming more and more mature, and a thoughtful light flashed in his eyes.

Spreading rumors seems like a simple job.

But this is something that can only be done by very delicate people.

But this time Tan Zong did even better than Mu Jing expected, the methods he used, the caution at the end, and the principle of not revealing the slightest were all in line with the talent that a spy should have.

Maybe......

He was born to eat in this line of food.

"It's all about being a young tutor well!"

Tan Zong stood beside Mu Jing, hearing Mu Jing's appreciation, his tense face showed a shallow smile, he was not very old, he had learned too much by following Mu Jing these days,

Of course, he also has a talent for this, a super talent for making some inferences about some things.

"Do you have reliable people under you?" Mu Jing asked.

"There are a few, but they are still training, they are all the people we walked down from Mushroom Mountain back then, and their trust is acceptable, but their ability is not enough!"

"Send a few to Wancheng, and send a few to Xiangyang!"

Mu Jing thought for a while and said: "I will select a few shopkeepers from the trading houses to accompany them and help them gain a foothold in Wancheng and Xiangyang, in the name of merchants, but in the secret to live in detail and find out the news!" ”

It is now the fifth year of Zhongping, and the world of chaos is not far away, and there are some things that he can only take precautions for, otherwise it will be so difficult for the two fathers and sons to have a foothold.

"No!"

Tan Zong nodded.

"Take this thing!" Mu Jing handed him a hand-copied book, which was in some modern TV series or novels, and he knew some espionage methods, and he gathered them into a book: "Study hard, you will become your father's right-hand man in the future!" ”

"Yes!"

Tan Zong took it with both hands, and there was a burning heat in his expression.

"Let's go down!"

"No!" After Tan Zong saluted, he turned around and left.

*************

Gong Mansion.

Gong Chang's gloomy face exuded a fierce aura like ice: "What is the price of grain now?" ”

"The cheapest millet has reached a thousand dollars per stone!"

A shopkeeper replied.

"Hateful, we don't have food in our hands!"

"Our dignified Wuyin No. 1 grain store can't even get a little grain, and now the store can only be listed and stopped!"

"Let these people make a lot of money!"

"Unwilling!"

One by one, the shopkeepers of the Gong family gritted their teeth.

"The head of the family, I can only borrow grain!" The shopkeeper Rory walked up and whispered.

"Borrowed food?"

Gong Chang was silent for a long time before he said, "I'm afraid that we are willing to borrow, but they are not willing to lend it to us!" ”

"Family master, these scholars should be, after all, they don't want to see Jingping Commercial Bank dominant!"

"Then go and try it, you can go for yourself!"

"No!"

……

The ancient mansion of the south of the city.

"Useless stuff!" Gu Peng was furious: "It's just a businessman, they can still turn the sky upside down!" ”

"Gu family master, I'm afraid they are coming this time!"

A head of the house said.

"This Jingping Commercial Bank is already obvious, it is in the name of Jingping Village, and Mushan They have made it clear that they want to fight us to the end!" Someone said indignantly: "If you want me to say that these people have been killed!" ”

"Kill, can you kill it?"

Someone sneered: "If they are just just businessmen, they only need the order of the county government to quarrel and exterminate the clan in the name of thieves, but now the county government is controlled by Cai Tu's bastard, how can we move, in addition, do you think the thousands of soldiers and horses in Mushan's hands are sitting and watching, they want us to take action, and then in the name of suppressing bandits, they will raid our homes and exterminate the clan!" ”

"Now you can't give Mushan that guy a grip!"

"Be careful!"

The heads of the family nodded and said.

"Master Gu, if Gong Chang wants us to borrow food now, should we lend it to them?" The head of the Chen family looked at Gu Peng and asked in a voice.

"Borrow!"

Gu Peng said indifferently: "My Gu family has 30,000 stones, you have gathered 60,000 stones, I will see if the whole 100,000 stones of grain can defeat them, I also want to see how capable this Jingping Commercial Bank is, who is respected by Jingping Commercial Bank, Zhang Heng?" ”

"The big shopkeeper of Jingping Commercial Bank is named Mujing, the word dragon picture, thirteen years old, the son of Mushan!"

Someone whispered.

"Shepherd Dragon Diagram?"

Gu Peng's eyes burst out with a fierce light: "Destroy the herding dragon diagram of hundreds of my Gu clan's children!" ”

There are some things that can't be hidden, and they want to know about the before and after of the Battle of Jingping Village, and they will always know that the name Mulongtu naturally came into their eyes.

It's just that they couldn't imagine that a thirteen-year-old boy could actually make them go home.

……

Gong Chang soon you get a reply from the Shi clan.

"They promised to borrow grain, and lent us 100,000 stone of grain in one go?"

"Yes!" Shopkeeper Luo said: "However, they require the settlement at the current market price, and it must be returned within three months, with an interest of 10%!" ”

"Ichisei?"

Gong Chang's expression changed slightly.

The current market price, even if it is the most ordinary aged millet, it is close to a thousand dollars, 100,000 stones, among which there are a lot of new valleys, at least more than 10,000 gold, although he is the first businessman in Wuyin, but the foundation is insufficient, the wheel is not as good as Zhang Heng's Zhang family, the Zhang family can come up with a few thousand gold, and he has to sell some family property, and he can't take out five thousand gold, if it is smashed, then play.

And the interest rate is one percent, which is too terrifying.

"Great!"

"I've got food!"

"It's time to fight back against them!"

"We'll set the price this time!"

"It's bound to make a lot of money!"

The shopkeepers couldn't manage so much, and they suddenly became excited.

"Head of the house!"

Someone shouted in a low voice.

"All shops, prepare to open their doors and buy and sell grain!" Gong Chang can only bite the bullet now.

He knew that only by making a big profit could he fill the vacancy.

"Good!"

The treasurers are commanded.

……

"Gongjia Grain Store has new rice!"

"Come and buy it!"

"This is the best new rice!"

"One thousand and one hundred stones, no two prices!"

“……”

Under the shroud of the atmosphere of war, although it is a little more expensive, there are still people who are willing to buy it.

As soon as the Gongjia grain store regained its popularity, the crowds surged, and the caravans gathered.

……

Chengnan Restaurant.

Zhang Heng played with the blood-colored jade pendant in his hand, and the corners of his mouth outlined a playful smile: "I just learned a news that Gong Chang borrowed a total of 100,000 grains from several scholars!" ”

"Sure enough, it's a scholar, what a big deal!" Sun Hao sneered: "Most of the land in Wuyin is controlled by them, and they have so much food, I'm not surprised at all!" ”

"Now I think, when is the time?" Zhang Heng squinted slightly.

"What does the big treasurer say?"

"The big shopkeeper said, we can't even grasp this opportunity, so what's the use of us!" Zhang Heng expounded Mu Jing's original words, and smiled slightly bitterly: "His meaning is very simple, we are in charge!" ”

"Although the big shopkeeper is not very old, but his attainments in business are no less than that of Lu Buwei back then, the book "Capital" he gave, after I read it, I benefited a lot, such a big event, involving tens of thousands of gold transactions, if he doesn't make a move, I have no bottom in my heart!" Sun Hao said.

"The big shopkeeper is the one who does great things!"

Zhang Heng's eyes burst with a gleam: "I think he is training us!" ”

"You're right, we can't let the big shopkeeper down!"

Sun Hao said: "Why don't you let Xu Cripple come to discuss together!" ”

"I sent someone to find him, and he said, don't bother him!" Zhang Heng smiled bitterly: "He seems to be a little crazy during this time, I heard from the Xu family that he has been in the workshop, and he seems to have obtained some new forging process!" ”

"Forget it!"

Sun Hao said: "Then let's discuss it ourselves!" ”

"I think wait!"

"Wait?" Sun Hao frowned: "Will you miss the opportunity!" ”

"It's too early to reduce the price now, it's not good to startle the snake and attract the Shi clan to make a move, and the price is not as good as the limit that ordinary people can bear, and it can't cause a rebound, if you want to reduce the price, it will consume us too much, after all, our inventory is only about seventy or eighty thousand!"

"You're right, wait a few more days!"

Sun Hao nodded.

……

Three days later, in Wuyin County, the major grain stores are still lively, and the price of grain has climbed to a historical peak.

"It's too expensive to ask for 1,200 yuan a stone of millet!"

"I'm not buying it!"

"I don't believe that we can starve to death!"

"I'm going to the government to sue you, these businessmen who raise prices, shameless villains!"

"It's shameless to go to the government to sue them, knowing that the war is coming, and to harm our people!"

"Let's go together!"

“……”

Many people can't afford such expensive prices, but food is a necessity of life, and they can't buy it, so their dissatisfaction finally began to erupt, and the whole county was in chaos.
