Chapter 341 Transactions
In the early morning, at the ferry port in Shaanxi and Tianjin, many people had already gathered together, and some even knew each other and greeted each other. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Yo, isn't this the big shopkeeper of the royal family in the west of the city? Why are you interested in coming here today? ā
"Haha, I came out to see the scenery, I stopped by, why are you here too?"
"When I walked here, I just saw a lot of people, you know, I'm a person, I like to have a good time."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, then arched their hands and separated, and the laugh lines on their faces immediately solidified into melancholy lines, which were deeply engraved between their eyebrows and eyes.
Luoyang is in the process of moving the capital, and the people who left in the early stage must be high-ranking officials and nobles, and these merchants in Luoyang City, especially those who have some relationship with those high-ranking officials and nobles, but are not immediate family members, are more sad.
Whether it is a needle and thread, or a cotton silk, or a pot and pan, these things have always needed some inventory every day, otherwise the supply will be cut off, wouldn't it be a smash of their own signboard?
Therefore, after Dong Zhuo suddenly announced that Ding Hai moved the capital, many merchants were directly in chaos, and everyone was going to move away, who would come to buy these things?
On the market, except for the price of things such as grain and grass, which continue to soar, other stocks that were originally valuable are basically smashed into their hands and become worthless waste.
If you don't move away, just wait in Luoyang?
Not to mention whether these things can be stored for a long time, just a few days ago, there was a rich family in the east of the city, who did not want to move the capital, and wanted to secretly run out of the east of the city, but was caught on the road, and the whole family was killed, and the family property was also looted.
The east, west, north and south are blocked on three sides, and there is only one road left to the west, and even if it is to the west, there are Dong Zhuo's troops shuttling back and forth along the way.
Shipped to Chang'an and then sold?
Not to mention the cost of transporting goods along the way, but where is this vehicle going? Now that each family has their own car like a baby, who wants to lend it? If there are no cars and horses, how can they be transported, and is it difficult to carry them by human hands?
These goods are like bone spurs stuck in the throat, spit and spit out, swallow and swallow, and die of pain.
Now, when they suddenly heard that in Shaanxi, not far west of the city, they could exchange grain and grass with sundries, and these merchants flocked to it as if they had grabbed the last straw.

The soldiers of Bingzhou led by Zhang Liao were busy carrying the grain and grass on the horses of Hedong to their own vehicles, back and forth like industrious ants.
"These grains and grasses just need to be supplied with warmth, so as to save the ...... of requisitioning and transferring grain and grass in Luoyang," Zhang Liao said as he stood beside Fei Qian.
Fei Qian turned his head, looked at Zhang Liao, and said, "Wen Hou wants to send troops?" To the east? ā
Fei Qian's first thought was that the scene of the Tiger Prison was finally going to be staged? As a result, Zhang Liao's next words confused Fei Qian.
"No, to the north, Hanoi, calculate the time, it should be dialed today." Before the army moved, the direction was still secret, but once the operation began, it was impossible to keep the whereabouts secret, so Zhang Liao did not plan to hide it.
"Hanoi? Could it be Yuan Benchu? Fei Qian said in a low voice.
Zhang Liao shook his head and said, "I don't know about this...... Xiangguo also accompanied him to the north......"
"And what about Pepin? Is it following the temperature? ā
"Well, it's all together." Zhang Liao said, "If there is no grain and grass for you, it is estimated that it will be requisitioned." ā
Requisition?
Could it be that the grain and grass in the Ruyang public treasury have been used up?
However, there is also this possibility, originally when there was news of the relocation of the capital, the major merchants began to sell grain and grass, although Li Ruyou found a way to transfer some, but after all, it had to be supplied to the army, and how much to take care of the people, so although the public treasury was large, it could not withstand repeated tossing......
And once the requisition, it will inevitably consume the grain and grass that was originally planned to be used on the way to move the capital, although the object of the requisition must be for the rich and the powerful, but if it is pressed layer by layer, it will eventually fall on the heads of the common people.
In this sense, the grain and grass purchased by Fei Qian from Hedong has indeed saved a lot of people.
Zhang Liao looked at the carriages rented by Fei Qian from Hedong with some pity, and sighed: "If these cars can reach Sili, maybe more people will survive......
Fei Qian also looked at these vehicles, was silent for a while, and said: "Even if these cars can reach the division, maybe those people will survive......
Fei Qian did not carry it with Zhang Liao, but told a fact.
Zhang Liao sighed, nodded, patted Fei Qian's shoulder, and said, "No matter what, if you can have more grain and grass, you will definitely be able to live more, this is all Ziyuan's credit!" Okay, I think I'm almost done, so I'll go first. ā
Zhang Liao took half a step back, arched his hand, and said meaningfully: "Ziyuan's road to Bingzhou is rugged, and I wish the horse success!" ā
"Brother Wenyuan is auspicious, and I wish Brother Wenyuan all the best."
Fei Qianmu sent Zhang Liao and his party away. Zhang Liao didn't bring many cars and horses before, only more than 30 cars, but Zhang Liao only needed to be responsible for crossing the river from Shaanxi and Tianjin and then transferring them to Shaanxi County, and it only took a day to load and unload a trip, so at most it was a matter of running a few more trips.
Zhang Liao escorted the grain and grass away, leaving behind the entire camp and three carts hidden in a tent behind the central tent.
Fei Qian took Cui Hou to the tent, tore off the cloth on the cart, revealed the box on the cart, and opened one at random, only to see the brilliance of Huang Cancan, and everything in the tent seemed to be dyed with a layer of color called wealth.
Even though he had two lifetimes of experience, Fei Qian was also attracted to his gaze, and after standing for a while, he reached out and closed the lid of the box, and said, "Yongyuan, can these be enough to pay for the subsequent grain and grass expenses?" ā
On top of the three carts, there are boxes stacked one after another, and each box contains a real sense of "ten thousand gold", that is, the official regulations, a piece of gold ingots equal to 10,000 yuan, and in the market, such "ten thousand gold" gold ingots can be exchanged for at least 12,000 to 13,000 yuan.
Cui Hou roughly estimated it and said, "These are nearly 300 million dollars, which is enough for ......."
Fei Qian patted the box and said, "Although these are tempting, they are dead things after all, and they can't be drunk when they're thirsty or hungry, so there's no need to keep them." Remember, we only need food, grass and goods. ā
Cui Hou glanced at it, although he was a little reluctant, but he still nodded seriously and said, "Houding is in mind!" ā
"If you can only see this in your heart, then there is only this at most. If your chest is not stuffed with these, there will be room for more things. We can only stay here for three months at most, and how far we can reach in these three months depends on Yongyuan! After Fei Qian's words, Zhengrong made a big gift to Cui Hou.
Cui Hou took half a step back, bowed to the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Houding lives up to the expectations of the lord!" ā
