After entering April, Shuzhong is ready to start harvesting wheat.

With the continuous increase in the demand for flour in the imperial court in recent years, coupled with the promotion of water mills, flour has become more and more popular.

Therefore, the wheat planting area in Shu is becoming more and more extensive.

Over the years, the imperial court has spared no effort to develop water conservancy and reclaim cultivated land in Shu.

Although it is not that the family is rich, as long as the head of the Qiantou is not too lazy, at least the children in the family can have a bite to eat, then it is still okay.

Not to mention those large families with large tracts of arable land, standing on the ground, at a glance, the golden wheat waves are rolling, which is really comforting.

It is said that when encountering such a good year and a good day, everyone should be happy.

But there are people who are not doing well.

Nanxiang Exchange, the VIP room that was originally chartered by the Li family's big house, has not been open for nearly a month.

The sacks and hemp ropes produced in Nanxiang have been famous for a long time.

However, there are still many people who still pick and choose, and then they pick the best quality sack hemp rope, and they guard the gate of the exchange every day, staring at the people who come in and out.

Just waiting to give the people in the Li family's big house a stuffy stick.

The twelve langs of the Li family's big house have run away!

With a small ...... Anyway, it's a runaway!

This bastard saw that it was the harvest season, so he ran away.

During the Northern Expedition last year, the price of grain almost exceeded 500 yuan a stone.

The Li family's big house relies on the big business of the family, but there are many people who throw high and collect low, engage in wind and rain, and it is so cool.

But who knew that a Feng evil animal fell from the sky, one broke Longguan, and the other broke Zhang He.

Then Zhuge Kongming, a villager, first ambushed the Wei army in Wudu, and then pacified Longxi with lightning speed.

Originally, many people thought that the Northern Expedition would form a tug-of-war, but who knew that it would be over in just a few months.

When the news reached Nanxiang, many people who stockpiled grain vomited blood.

I didn't know that God opened his eyes, and the news of the great victory of the Northern Expedition had not passed half a month, and I heard that there was a great drought in Longyou, and it was necessary to transfer grain from Shu for relief.

As a result, the depressed food prices suddenly skyrocketed again.

I didn't know that there was a turning point in the future, and it was Feng Wenhe and this beast again, who made a high-barrel waterwheel, which greatly alleviated the drought in Longyou.

When it rained in September, the bulls of the Nanxiang Exchange were finally completely blown up, and the price of grain fell off the cliff again.

Climb the city wall and line up, lift yourself to Qingchi, and hang the southeast branch, there are countless people.

No matter how thick the Li family's big house is, it can't withstand this wave if it follows the market.

Not to mention the deliberate control of the black hand behind it.

A considerable part of the large number of transaction receipts received was postponed until this year's summer grain harvest.

However, the Li family's big house was originally a big farmer, and if they still had to receive food from all parties according to the rules at this time, there would be only one end, that is, they would be blown up.

The Li family doesn't really want to run away, after all, he is a character with a family, a business, and a head and face.

He just saw that the situation was not good, and ran back to Guanghan's hometown to ask for help.

As the plenipotentiary representative of the Li family's big house in the Nanxiang Exchange, he disappeared all of a sudden, and in this hot summer, many old irons suddenly became irritable.

People who had written notes with the Li family's big house began to gather at the Zhang family's residence in Nanxiang.

"Lose money! Money! ”

"The Li clan of Guanghan in Shuzhong, who has been in the clan for hundreds of years, doesn't you even want your reputation?

"I know you're inside, you have the ability to make a contract, and you have the ability to open the door!"

……

If it weren't for the fact that the security in Nanxiang was not bad, I am afraid that someone would have started smashing the gate.

"My whole net worth is in it, I can't get this money back, and others will force me to death anyway! I'm going to die at your doorstep! ”

Someone burst into tears and sat on the ground.

What's more, after scolding, he cried and begged: "Your Li family has a big business, you can give me a little first!" I'm a ...... of borrowing and selling."

After confirming that no one in the Li family house came out to give a guarantee, and at the same time, after informing the Li family that the big house went to the exchange to explain to no avail within the time limit.

Li Mu quickly ordered that all transactions of the Li family's big house on the exchange be frozen.

The Li family's big house became the first person to stop listing on the exchange.

Even this trend soon spread to Guanghan County, the foundation of the Li family's big house.

Well-informed people have already begun to come and collect debts.

"My lord, what should we do now?"

The twelve lang of the Li family, who had just returned from Hanzhong a few days ago, asked his lord with a pale face.

As the head of the Li family's generation, Li's father was trembling.

"Horn!"

One side of Twelve's face quickly swollen.

"What are you doing running back?" Father Li roared, "If you don't come back, if they make trouble, they will also make trouble in Nanxiang!" ”

"But my lord, I'll be beaten to death by them......"

Twelve Lang didn't dare to cover his face, so he knelt down.

"Who would dare to kill you? Will it be left alone at home? As long as you can think of a way to drag it out for some time, the family will naturally find a way for you! ”

Father Li's eyes were red, "Now that everyone has followed you to Guanghan, the reputation of the Li family for hundreds of years has been ruined." ”

"My lord, I don't dare!" Twelvero looked up, his face frightened, "That woman, she's going to send me to the mines in the mountains!" ”

Of course, Li Mu would not send himself to the mine, but it was certain that he would be locked up in the black kiln.

It's obviously a family matter, so why should I be left alone?

Now that everyone is chasing them to the house, what is the solution? When I'm a three-year-old? Don't try to lie to me!

At this time, a person rushed in from outside, who was the sibling of the head of the Li family.

Before the others could stand firmly, they hurriedly said: "Brother, the people of the He family said that they didn't have any cash in hand, and they all invested it in the woolen workshop!" ”

"How could the He family have no money! We also bought a batch of grain from them! ”

Father Li's forehead was bruised, and he looked at the person who came in disbelief, "The head of the He family obviously promised me that he would help us this time." ”

When grain prices fell for the first time, it was the news that the He family's big house transmitted to the Li family a few days in advance, saying that it was a drought in Longyou, which made the Li family grit their teeth and hold on.

Later, as the family said, the price of food rose again.

At that time, the He family was still preparing to invest in the pasture of Yueshan because of the relationship between the three houses in the clan, and they wanted half of the money and grain, so they had to throw away some of the grain.

was afraid that the He family's selling would push down the price of grain, so in the end, he personally went to the head of the He family, and this batch of grain fell into the hands of the Li family.

Thinking about it now, the head of the Li family suddenly shuddered.

He has three rooms, He Shen and He forget the pair of mad dog-like father and son......

Coupled with the sudden change of the head of the He family now, the head of the Li family was suddenly shocked and angry, and at the same time, there was finally a sense of fear in his heart.

"Master, why don't we exchange some grain for wool?" The person who came suggested in a low voice, "Li Mu is still surnamed Li after all." ”

"I asked her to get some wool on credit first, and it would be better if I could ask her to help calm the people. With her reputation, I'm sure those people will listen. ”

The head of the Li family smiled miserably, "Take the grain in exchange?" Do you know what the price of food is now? ”

Speaking of this, he kicked over and knocked over his son, who had been kneeling, "Fifty dollars a stone for wheat!" When we collected the grain in front of us, the price was evenly divided, at least a hundred dollars! ”

"Half of it! Besides, who is going to ask for food to pay off the debt now? Crazy? ”

The summer harvest is one of the lowest grain prices in a year, and the grain in Shuzhong has been increasing year by year in recent years, so a fool is willing to take grain?

Besides, even if there is a fool, then the Li family will lose at least half.

The more the head of the Li family said, the more he wanted to kill the woman in Nanxiang: If you want to say that she doesn't know anything, who will believe it?

You are a woman from our Li family, say it in advance, can you die? Will it die?

"Our Li family, there is a demon girl! Enchantress! ”

It's just that no matter how much he hates Li Mu, the head of the Li family still has to go to Nanxiang in person.

"On credit?"

Li Mu sat on the main seat peacefully, watching the head of the Li family who was high in the past sitting down with a smiling face, and his heart was really happy.

When you persecuted me, did you ever think about today?

She had a smile on her face, "Uncle, your house still owes the exchange a bunch of unfulfilled contracts, how can you let me get credit?" ”

"Madam," the head of the Li family stiffly held back the breath in his chest, "Our Li family, you don't know that there are still some family backgrounds." ”

"Now it's just a temporary turnover, and when this period is over, how can I collect and sell the grain."

"Besides, don't we have a wool mill in the Li family? It is said that wool will be produced this year, and we are afraid that we will not come back at that time? ”

As a big family, if you really want to say that you can't withstand this wave, that's to laugh.

Just the side branch below can also make up a stroke.

But seeing that the woolen workshop in Longyou is about to start, how can you prepare a large sum of money on hand, otherwise what will you do to start work?

Sign a weaver, rent a handyman, buy wool, buy a loom......

Feng Wen and that livestock even have to charge money for the site of the workshop!

Or just rent and not sell!

If you missed this year, you're going to be left behind next year, who would dare to relax at this time?

"And we have also paid a deposit on the exchange before, and now that the situation is urgent, can we bring it up first......

Before the head of the Li family finished speaking, Li Mu shook his head, "Uncle, this money can only be regarded as a small amount of money for the contract in your hand. ”

"And we also said at the beginning that if you breach, the money will be deducted."

"It's not a few days before the time to cash out, so uncle should hurry up and think about it, otherwise, don't be unsympathetic."

Hearing that Li Mu actually wanted to swallow the money, the head of the Li family finally couldn't help but stand up suddenly: "Li Mu, are you really so ruthless?" ”

The expression on Li Mu's face remained unchanged, and even the smile was even stronger.

Her gaze looked at Twelve Lang behind the head of the Li family, "Twelve Lang, did I force you to buy grain in the first place?" ”

Twelve Lang didn't dare to look at her, his lips moved, but he didn't dare to reply.

Li Mu looked at the head of the Li family again: "Uncle, I'm just a woman." Not to mention that I am now the Feng Li clan, even if I am not married, can I still participate in such a major clan event? ”

"This Nanxiang Exchange, but there are people from the imperial court watching, if I dare to show favoritism, can my uncle know what the consequences will be?"

The head of the Li family didn't believe that she had no choice, his eyes were red, he stared at her deadly, and said word by word: "Don't you forget what your surname was before you got married?" ”

Li Mu was reminded by him, and it seemed that he had just reacted, and suddenly said: "Yes, I also came out of the sixth room of the Li family." In that case, how about I help my uncle think of a way? ”

When the head of the Li family heard this, he didn't expect her to say such a sentence, but he didn't react for a while, and he was stunned on the spot.

"Actually, my uncle reminded me." Li Mu's eyes shone brightly, "The workshop on the right side of Longyou, not to mention that it can produce wool later." ”

"Even if there is nothing now, the share alone is worth a lot of money. Since my uncle doesn't have much money, why not sell his share to solve the urgent situation? ”

"Shut up!" When the head of the Li family heard this, he immediately pointed his fingers at Li Muda and shouted, "What kind of intentions do you have for such a vicious woman? Want to push our big house to a dead end? ”

Only then did he shout, only to see two maids with knives rushing in from outside the hall: "Madame, is there something wrong?" ”

Both of them drew their swords and looked at the head of the Li family and Li Shishilang vigilantly.

Li Mu's face was gloomy, and he waved his hand to let them go down, and then said: "Uncle just said what the woman said, but I Li Mu?" ”

Saying that, she stood up and forced her to look at the head of the Li family, "Even if I am only a concubine of the Feng family, I am also a member of the Feng family." Uncle insulted me like this, how is it different from insulting the Marquis of the Feng family? Is there really no one in the Feng family? ”

A mouthful of old blood gushed up his throat from the head of the Li family, and he almost vomited it, but he forcibly swallowed it back again.

your mother's von lee!

He trembled and asked in a hoarse voice, "Why did you do this?" ”

Li Mu sneered, "Uncle really wants to know?" ”

The head of the Li family stared at her, his eyes breathing fire.

I saw Li Mu shouting outside: "Please come over Li Langjun." ”

The head of the Li family is a little unclear, so who is this Li Langjun?

After a while, I saw a young man walk in, and first saluted Li Mu, who was on the throne: "I've seen Madame." ”

When the head of the Li family saw this person, he felt that he was a little familiar, but he thought about it for a long time, but he didn't remember where he had seen this person.

However, when Li Shishilang saw this person, his eyes widened suddenly, and his face was full of disbelief.

I saw this person salute the head of the Li family again: "Longxi Di Dao Li Jian has seen Uncle Shi." ”

When the head of the Li family heard this, he suddenly understood, "You are from the Li family in Longxi?" You were to Guanghan a few years ago. ”

"Uncle Shi has a good memory."

Li Jian replied politely.

At that time, the Li family in Longxi wanted to buy a batch of wool from Nanxiang, and the first thing was to connect them through the big house of the Li family in Shuzhong, but unfortunately the big house was unfavorable and failed to let the Li family in Longxi get their wish.

"Uncle, it's not a secret, the Li family in Longxi has long had the intention of participating in the woolen workshop, but there is no way."

"Now it happens that Dafang is inconvenient, so it is better to sell the share of our Li family's woolen workshop belonging to Dafang to the Li family in Longxi."

Li Mu said with a smile, "At that time, the Li family in Longxi can help take over the contract in the hands of my uncle." In this way, Dafang has maintained its reputation, and Longxi can fulfill his wish, anyway, they are all surnamed Li, and there are no cheap outsiders in the end. ”

When the matter came to this, the head of the Li family finally understood that when Dafang encountered the current situation, not only were outsiders framed, but even the Li family's own internal ghosts!

That mouthful of blood finally spurted out of his throat!

Even Li Jian's face was sprinkled with a little stars.

"Your Excellency!"

Li Shishilang hurriedly supported his adult.

The head of the Li family laughed nervously, "The Li family is unlucky, unlucky!" There are such poisonous women and demon girls! ”

The head of the Li family struggled to look at Li Jian again, "The Li family in Longxi and the Li family in Shuzhong are in the same vein, why are they so cannibalistic?" ”

Li Jian lowered his head and replied softly: "Uncle Shi, the sixth room of the Li family and the Li family in Longxi are also in the same vein. ”

"The Li clan in Longxi wants to help the side branch seize the sect!"

When the head of the Li family heard this, his eyes widened, and he snorted a few times unwillingly, but he couldn't stand it anymore, and fainted all of a sudden.

A few days later, the news soon came out that the head of the Li family clan was paralyzed from a stroke because he was worried that the transaction contract was too much.

In order to appease all parties, Mu Niangzi, who was in charge of the exchange, brokered the Li family in Longxi to take over the contract of the Li family's big house in Shuzhong.

With Mu Niangzi coming forward, the leeks ...... Ah, no, it's the retail investors who are waiting for the Li family, the banker, to fulfill their promises, and they can finally breathe a sigh of relief at this time.

At this time, the uproar about the default of the Li family's big house finally came to an end.

Nanxiang Mu Niangzi's fame has reached a new level.

The Li clan in Longxi has brushed a wave of prestige, and it is certain that he is anxious for justice and righteousness, especially for the same lineage, there is really nothing to say.

After this incident, the big house of the Li family in Shuzhong began to fall silent.

The collapse of the Li family's big house marked the official entry of the old family in Shuzhong into the era of disintegration.

Another Shuzhong surnamed He family took a part of the woolen workshop and traded with the Xinghan Association to get a ticket to invest in the Yueshan Ranch.

It is the kind of ticket that has bargaining power and management power, not the kind that only dividends.

At the same time, Xinghan will exchange shares to get the official admission ticket to the woolen workshop.
