The next day, Li Gang began to recruit manpower, and according to Chen Zheng's small suggestion, he carried out the pre-disaster preparations step by step.

Chen Zheng and Li Shuang found the scribe and went through all the formalities for building the dock.

Grain prices in Dongyang County were already on the rise yesterday.

However, Li Gang acted quickly, and it took two days to find out all the grain storage situation in the county.

After a decree, the wealthy households in Dongyang County panicked.

Except for the part that they had enough to keep for themselves, the rest were sold to the government office at a flat price.

Of course, the government office didn't have so much money, so it could only write some blank checks.

Of course, many people quit, and few families were willing to take out the food they had hoarded.

Just when this decree could not be implemented, outside the north of the city, the shopkeeper of the king of the pharmacy in the west of the city, and the shopkeeper of Haidaiyuan Xu, suddenly announced collectively that they would sell their own grain reserves to the government office at a price lower than one percent of the parity.

The county commander Li Gang was very happy, and promised in public that as long as the disaster passed, the government office would sell it to them at the same price.

At the same time, Li Gang ordered the scribes to hype up this matter, and the deeds of the three righteous families were spread throughout Dongyang County.

Even when Bi Yuanwai was young, he squandered his wealth and ransomed himself for a dusty woman.

Outside the staff of righteousness and wealth, the shopkeeper of the king of the bright and honest and benevolent, and the shopkeeper of Xu Xu, he became a model for everyone in Dongyang County to learn for a while, and moved the people of Dongyang.

In the private room of Juquande Restaurant, the three winners of the first "Moving Dongyang" characters are chatting with Chen Zheng and Li Shuang.

Li Shuang finished gnawing a piece of meat and bones, wiped his mouth, and asked, "Bi Yuanwai, ask more, why did you spend so much money to help that girl redeem herself?" ”

Bi Yuanwai raised his head and looked at the horizontal drape of the flower cover in the room, as if reminiscing about the past.

After a long while, Bi Yuanwai sighed leisurely: "Jiang Jiang had a bad fate back then, and I couldn't bear it, so I ransomed her out and gave her a stable life." ”

"Come on."

Before Bi Yuanwai could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the shopkeeper Wang next to him.

When Li Shuang heard this, there must be other stories about this, so he quickly poured a glass of wine for the shopkeeper Wang, and asked, "What else does the shopkeeper know about the king?" Let's talk about it. ”

Shopkeeper Wang took a sip of wine, smiled, looked at Bi Yuanwai and said, "Are you unbearable?" You're hungry for her body! ”

Bi Yuanwai's face was flushed, and he didn't know if he had drunk too much wine or was ashamed.

"You don't want to smear people's innocence out of thin air!" Bi Yuanwai argued.

Shopkeeper Wang snorted lightly and said, "Don't you think I don't know, after you ransomed Jiang Jiang, you rented a small courtyard and lived a life of hiding in a golden house and living a shameless life!" ”

Bi Yuanwai looked at the others, looked a little embarrassed, and said, "Why are you mentioning it in the past?" ”

The shopkeeper Wang became more and more excited, and said angrily: "You yourself are happy, have you ever thought about other people's feelings?" Jiang Jiang is hidden by you, and the joy of life is much less. ”

Chen Zheng and Li Shuang glanced at each other, and they both heard that the story of these two back then was quite exciting.

"And then?" Li Shuang was very curious about these things and kept asking.

"Later, hehe!" Shopkeeper Wang seemed to remember happy things, "Later, Lao Bi's romantic deeds were known to his wife, tsk." ”

Bi Yuanwai was greatly embarrassed, tore off a piece of barbecue meat, and stuffed it into the mouth of the shopkeeper Wang, saying: "Eating meat can't stop your mouth!" ”

A period of romantic gossip outside the staff satisfied the curiosity of everyone present, and the private room was full of joyful atmosphere.

Of course, Bi Yuanwai may not be very happy.

Seeing that several people were silent with each other, Boss Xu of Haidaiyuan smiled and said, "The joke is over, let's get down to business, right?" ”

"Yes!" Bi Yuanwai echoed, "Let's talk about the dock and port in Jiuqu Bay." ”

Chen Zheng nodded and said, "I invited a few people here today to discuss the cooperation between this dock and the port. ”

"Everyone is friends, and we usually move around a lot, so Brother Chen and I thought of you as soon as we made money." Li Shuang said, "I just don't know if you are willing or not." ”

Shopkeeper Xu laughed and said, "Look at what Li Gongzi said, if we are unwilling, how can we take the lead in selling grain at a low price?" ”

Chen Zheng arched his hand at the three of them, and said, "I would like to thank a few people for their cooperation in the matter of selling grain, after the disaster, Lord Li will definitely not treat you badly." ”

In business, when talking to a few of them, you have to let them see the real benefits, and what you say to benefit the people and last for generations is not valid at all.

"And how did you work together?" Shopkeeper Wang asked.

Chen Zheng smiled slightly and said: "I also told you before, or according to the previous agreement, you will make up for the lack of money and food, and you will each take a share of the income of the dock and the port in the future, how about it?" ”

"Is it only one percent?" Bi Yuanwai seems to feel a little little.

Li Shuang was a little unhappy, and said, "Is Yicheng too little?" ”

Chen Zheng stretched out his hand and pulled Li Shuang, and said with a smile: "This success doesn't sound like much, but if you calculate it, this dividend is definitely a lot." ”

"Please also ask Master Chen to calculate it for us." Shopkeeper Wang smiled.

These people are all human spirits, and although they have sold their face and sold the stored grain to the government office at a price lower than the parity, they are still very cautious about this kind of large amount of investment.

"After the dock is repaired, I will personally build a fishing boat in the next meeting, which is specially used for fishing, and I will know a few secrets of going out to sea to catch fish, and the amount of fish caught is by no means comparable to those fishermen in the fishing village today, and the income from selling fish alone is very considerable." Chen Zhengdao.

The three of them were indifferent, and it was obvious that this alone could not impress them.

"Then there is the construction of the port, and when there are more ships entering and leaving the port in the future, the amount of silver flowing water is not something you and I can imagine." Chen Zheng drew a big pie for them.

Shopkeeper Xu frowned and said, "Liang Guo has always had a ban on the sea, how can there be ships coming and going extensively?" ”

"The ban on the sea is only temporary, we have five patrol ships in Dongyang County, this is the signal!" Chen Zhengdao.

For them, Chen Zheng can't say too much, he talked to Li Gang before, it involves the national policy of Liang Guo, and it is not something that can be discussed casually.

Chen Zheng threw a fennel bean into his mouth and said, "Besides, since Lord Li approved the construction of the port, it will definitely be used in the future." ”

Bi Yuanwai and Shopkeeper Wang looked at each other, kept communicating with each other, and finally nodded at the same time, saying, "We believe in Master Chen!" ”

"Thank you!" Chen Zheng smiled and turned his head to look at Shopkeeper Xu, "What do you mean?" ”

Shopkeeper Xu spread his hands and said, "Then I have no choice but to be respectful and obey my fate!" ”
