Watching Li Chengqian's wolf spit out and swallow, Chen Zhengtai was also hungry, but he ate very gently, and before eating, he tore off the other chicken leg and gave it to Princess Sui'an first.

Princess Sui'an looked at the 'rude' royal brother, and then looked at the polite senior brother, and felt more and more that the senior brother was like a person who had descended from the gods.

Chen Zhengtai looked at Li Chengqian meaningfully while thinking about it.

Li Chengqian is still a child, and he has been taught by countless famous teachers, of course...... There is also an excellent father, such a person...... What is missing?

What he lacks is not martial arts and literary talents, nor is it etiquette and excellent learning conditions, what he really lacks...... It's earthy.

Li Chengqian ate almost half of the chicken, licked his mouth, looked at the skeletons all over the ground, and was still unsatisfied.

Chen Zhengtai felt that his stomach was full, and Princess Sui'an's stomach was small, and he was taken aback when he saw Li Chengqian's gobbling up.

"Burn another one, I'll catch the chicken." Li Chengqian was full of interest, his whole body was full of energy, and he touched his belly: "This chicken is so delicious, it's really damned, why is the chicken made by Gu so delicious." ”

Chen Zhengtai felt that he couldn't afford to provoke this guy, so he was busy leading Princess Sui'an to slip away.

This time, I came to Erpigou to check the production of white salt, and in addition, there was also the purchase of grain.

The Chen family let out the words and bought all the grain on the market, but Chen Zhengtai was not stupid, and set an upper limit on the basis of the market price, so as not to let those hateful profiteers deliberately hoard goods and speculate on the price of grain.

All in all, the Chen family just gives so much money, loves to sell, not sell.

The fourth uncle looked at Chen Zhengtai before, and he had a very admiring look, but now when he looks at this nephew, he suddenly feels that this nephew is a little mentally retarded.

The Chen family's money...... It's such a.

Not only did I buy so much grain, but I also used it for money, chickens, and ducks, and I heard that it was not far away, and I wanted to go to Yuezhou to buy what hemp ducks.

It's okay to buy grain at a high price, after all, although grain has risen and fallen, there is always the possibility of selling it later.

But this chicken and duck are different, in this era, there are not many chickens and ducks who can afford to eat, and a large number of chickens and ducks have to be fed with grain, not only have to hire people to take care of them, but also waste food...... As soon as he thought of this, the fourth uncle couldn't wait to starve these chickens and ducks to death.

When Chen Zhengtai was busy, the day had passed, the sky was dark, and he looked at the sky in surprise: "Ah, it's actually dark, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back to Chang'an today." Seemingly...... I had to stay here......"

Princess Sui'an suddenly said, "Then let's live here, senior brother......"

Chen Zhengtai was about to order someone to arrange it, but he saw Li Chengqian rushing over in a hurry: "It's dark." I'm afraid I won't be able to get back to the city today. Sister, come, I have set up two tents, let's stay here tonight. ”

Chen Zhengtai smiled: "Your Highness...... Burned another chicken? ”

Li Chengqian frowned, and said very seriously: "The second one is not burned well, I think it is because Lone has made a mistake, and Lone will ponder it again." ”

Sleep that night.

The day in Guanzhong is quite hot, but at night, it is surprisingly cold.

Chen Zhengtai was wrapped in a quilt, wondering in his heart whether Princess Sui'an would be cold when she slept in the tent, so she fell asleep in a daze.

When he woke up the next morning, Chen Fu hurriedly came to dress Chen Zhengtai and said, "Son...... Last night, a man came, and he had been waiting for Childe outside, and I wanted to drive him away, but he refused to do anything, so he had to see Childe. ”

Chen Zhengtai said in surprise: "Why didn't you say it earlier." ”

Chen Fu was silent, thinking to himself, both horizontal and vertical are good people, three watches in the middle of the night, if I tell you to get up, you won't kill me?

After dressing, Chen Zhengtai came out of the room, and saw an unkempt person, holding something in his hand, at this time, the dawn was beginning to appear, and the frost in the sky hit the person's head, like a layer of white ash, he kept stomping his feet, sucking the nose that was about to flow out, arching his body, curling up.

As soon as he heard the movement, this person immediately cheered up, looked up, and saw that it was Chen Zhengtai who came out, and immediately smiled, and came forward with the tattered dust on his body: "I've seen Gongzi." ”

Chen Zhengtai glanced at him, this is not who Deng Jian is.

Deng Jian saw Chen Zhengtai, as if because of the cold wind of the night, his body was stiff, so that his behavior was very unnatural, and he bowed to Chen Zhengtai.

Chen Zhengtai carefully identified him, and only then did he recognize him: "Oh, what's the matter?" ”

After all, Chen Zhengtai is the head of the Chen family, and the imperial court has given Erpigou County a man, and there is still a shelf.

Deng Jian hurriedly took out a red cloth package from his tattered sleeve: "Childe, I ...... My mother knew that the son was coming to Erpigou and wanted to send ...... Sent a pair of my bride's shoes, she was afraid that her son would leave early in the morning, afraid that she would delay the hour, I ...... I ......"

As if offering a treasure, he opened the red cloth, and sure enough, it ...... A new pair of shoes was placed in Chen Zhengtai's eyes.

Chen Zhengtai was stunned: "That's it?" ”

Deng Jian saw Chen Zhengtai's stunned appearance, and suddenly, under the long eyebrows covered by hoarfrost, his eyes were red: "My mother said that my son is very kind, first I was allowed to work here, and then I was given new clothes, so I don't need to wear a dress with my father." Such kindness is that I was a cow and a horse in the first life of the Deng family, and I could not repay it. This new pair of shoes is something I got from my work, and my mother bought the cloth and received it herself, so the son must not dislike it. ”

Chen Zhengtai was dumbfounded......

Seeing Chen Zhengtai hesitating, Deng Jian suddenly burst into tears, choked up, and said: "Childe saved our family's life, this is a life-saving grace, Childe...... I was young and ignorant, and I didn't understand anything...... Now the son has given the worker to do, I ...... I ......"

As he spoke, he cried.

He cried very sadly, like an old man crying with joy before entering the cave room.

The body twitched and twitched: "If the son doesn't accept it, I won't be sure in my heart." ”

"Oh." Chen Zhengtai nodded and took the shoes: "Then I'll take it, you work hard." ”

"Yes, yes." Deng Jian was overjoyed when he heard this, collected his tears, and thanked him for his kindness: "I must live up to my son, I can work hard, but I can't spoil my son's new clothes and wages, if I don't work for eight hours a day, am I still a human being?" ”

Call......

Chen Zhengtai let out a sigh of relief, he seemed to find that he and Deng Jian were completely two worlds, looking at him crying with his nose, tears flowing, and the gratitude on his face was like a dream, the shoes in his hands did not look good, but it could be seen that the needlework and thread were not bad, and the soles were also very thick, which was done with heart.

When Li Chengqian was found, Li Chengqian had already gotten up early in the morning and lit a fire...... This dog thing actually killed one of the Chen family's chickens again.

Chen Zhengtai's face twitched, it was not good to have a seizure, and after breakfast, he went home.

…………

After some days, grain ships arrived at the wharf, and Chen Zhengtai personally went to the wharf to check the grain.

The response of the Tibetans was very fast, they were in urgent need of white salt, and their own grain production was high, so they quickly transferred grain ships from Tibet to trade.

The arrival of these grain ships was spectacular, and many people gathered here to discuss a lot.

"The Chen family has built a lot of granaries in Erpigou and purchased grain everywhere, and I heard that the price of grain is not low."

"I'm crazy, it's about to be autumn, and at this time...... What grain ...... collected?"

"It's cheaper for these Tibetans.

………

Wei Jia......

Wei Xuanzhen sat in the long pavilion, sitting in a relaxed and comfortable position, while the child servants on the side were making tea, and the fragrance of tea was overflowing.

"Proprietor, proprietor ......"

But it was Huang Chenggong who came in a hurry: "Owner, it's terrible, at the wharf, the Tubo people have sent many grain ships. ”

Wei Xuanzhen raised her eyes lazily and glanced at Huang Chenggong: "Huh? ”

Huang Chenggong shook the feather fan, and Zhizhu was holding it: "Previously, although the Wei family sold a lot of grain, although the price of grain was high, the proprietor was still not satisfied?" Now that the Tubo people have transferred so much grain, in the humble opinion of the students, it will not be long before the price of grain in Chang'an will plummet. ”

Wei Xuanzhen's pupils contracted slightly, then squinted and continued to stare at Huang Chenggong.

Huang Chenggong stood tall and tall, and the wisdom shown on his face could no longer be concealed: "Although the Chen family's grain collection has raised the price of grain, it will soon be autumn, and after autumn, once the autumn harvest is made, the price of this grain is afraid to reach the bottom, and the grain of the Tubo people is constantly coming, and when the time comes, the entire Guanzhong will be full of grain." ”

"So what does sir mean ......"

"Immediately sell all the grain in the barn, and take advantage of the Chen family's willingness to continue to collect grain, how much can be sold."

"All sold?" Wei Xuanzhen was a little reluctant, after all...... In this era, food is fundamental.

"Proprietor...... So-called...... There are gains and losses, and there are losses...... Only then can you get it back, take advantage of the high price to quickly send out the grain, and wait until the price is low to the bottom, and then buy it back. ”

"What's more, the Wei family has countless pieces of land in Chang'an, and when the autumn comes, as soon as the grain is harvested, the family's barn will be full again. The great husband shall be in constant judgment, and he shall suffer from it. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The student said politely, that Mengjin Chen family is full of a group of foolish worms, in this world, there is no longer such a wronged leader, once the opportunity is missed, it will be too late to regret it. ”

Wei Xuanzhen calculated quickly in his heart, and couldn't help but nod: "Mr. Huang is really smart and far-sighted, I have Mr. Huang, why worry about the family business?" ”

Huang Chenggong showed a relieved smile, and he said, where is it, the proprietor is exaggerating.

But I couldn't help but think in my heart, that's right, the old man has been studying hard for 20 years, he can't let go of the book, and he is well versed in the world, even if Guan Zhong is reborn, the old man doesn't look down on him.

"That's it, immediately sell all the surplus grain."

"Whoa."
