Chapter 187: This battle will continue at a loss!
That night, Li Kou took a bath in the backyard and had just changed into clean clothes, when Zhong Bolai reported that someone asked to see him.
Who?
Li Kou is very strange, who will visit when it is already the time of the lantern?
Zhongbo's dark face was ruddy, and he whispered that he was the official of Kuraji.
"Oh." Li Kou was about to go to the living room, and suddenly came to his senses, how could they come to him so quickly?
He immediately asked, "Have you come to the house to see your faces in the past few days?" β
For three days in a row, Uncle Zhong used Li Daitao's stiff plan to move the grain in the warehouse to the outside of the city without telling everyone, and made a plan to increase the troops.
At this moment, the people of Pingliang County were relieved.
There are also people who suspect that it is only those who exchange locusts every day to bring back the full grain of wheat.
As a result, the suspicion naturally faded.
The people of Kuraji have a great appetite, and as soon as the old grain comes out and the new grain comes in, they will have at least 10% of the profit.
What's more, those officials can get a sum of money from Li Kou's hands, who knows how much?
This time, these people finally panicked.
What's more, in Jingzhao Mansion and Qinfeng Road Cangsi, Tong Guan sent a lot of food to Weizhou.
That's Tong Guan's way to eat benefits, who would dare to stop Cangji?
At this time, Cangsi's people had no choice but to come to Li Kou to ask for a solution.
But they should have come in advance these days.
Sure enough, Zhongbo said that the gang had never come.
"That's it." Li Kou said, "It will take a few days to crush them, these people are greedy and cowardly, don't pay attention to him, please come in, good tea and good wine are served, but don't be in a hurry to ask for their food," he said with a cold face and disgust, "The benefits of eating me should be returned, and the benefits of one out and one in are enough for them to eat." β
Uncle Zhong smiled and said, "When Da Lang is still at home, we have the backbone." β
Li Kouwaner smiled, this was because he was afraid that he would not come out from sitting in the mountains.
"Where, I still have to study." Li Kou said, "After the cottage is initially decided, I will go to the city, if I can go to school in the county, it will naturally be the best." β
As soon as he said this, Uncle Zhong was a little regretful.
"Da Lang is only afraid that there is no such leisure." He hit the nail on the head, "These generals will inevitably provide opportunities for Da Lang to establish meritorious deeds in order to pull them into our family, as for Tong Guan's power eunuch......"
"Don't say that." Li Kou said, "Treat Tong Guan, he should have an opinion, this guy is extremely greedy, and he doesn't have much ability, but with his status, he can help us, so we should thank him." If it was an ordinary family, it would be nothing great to scold him with those scholars, but if we eat his care and dislike his identity, it is no different from those village women scolding the street. We must remember that we don't need to be recognized by anyone when we do things, as long as we keep the truth in our hearts, Hugh said that Tong Guan is the Son of Heaven......"
"I know, I know," Uncle Zhong nagged, "the old man just said something in front of Da Lang, how could he talk about it in front of outsiders, not to mention, we do eat the care of others." β
But the old man reminded in a blink of an eye: "Anyway, this is Da Lang's good ......"
He was worried that Li Kou would hear what people said about coming to the door or something, and his heart was so self-respecting that he left this home.
Where would Li Kou care about this.
When I was humble, everyone said humble.
If I am the emperor, history will also praise the poor and the strong.
What do those who chew the root of their tongue do?
He went to report to Miss Ma first, she was waiting for him to eat.
"Probably someone from the prefectural Kuraji." Li Kou said, "I'll take them for a while, you eat first, and I'll be back soonβyes, I'm afraid I'm going to work in the mountains these days, and I need a few coarse cloth clothes, so you can help me prepare them, and some shoes and socks." β
Miss Ma smiled and said, "I won't have to wear it until you come to remind me." β
She waved her hand and said, "You go and see them soon, eat early, and go to the hay field tomorrow to see the homeless people." β
Not only that, but there are also assembled craftsmen.
Li Kou thought about the construction of Dazhai in his heart, and when he came out of the living room, he saw two soap-robed officials sitting on it drinking tea, and Huang Shu and Zhu Wen looked angry and stood aside to accompany them.
Li Kou said: "You all go to dinner, see these two in the future, don't be lazy, please come and see me." β
When the two saw Li Kou, they didn't dare to be arrogant, jumped down and gave up their hands, and shouted "Li Dalang is back" one after another.
Li Kou is now the master of the military village, and he has made friends with so many powerful people, they don't want to say that they are just soap-robed officials, but even the green-robed officials must also shout "Li Dalang, you look very good today."
Li Kou didn't trust him, although those two were officials, they were the chief writers of the county's Cangsi.
The tilt under the pen of these two people is the benefit of a few stones of wheat.
"Please be seated." Li Kou said, "I've been on the hill for a few days, so I've neglected the two of you, forgive me." β
Both of them laughed and said, "The little people ......"
Li Kou glared and said, "Do you treat Li Da as an outsider?" β
The two laughed and changed their words: "We have been in a hurry these days, but we are just above...... Dare to ask Da Lang about the wheat of this grain line......"
Li Kou said: "This matter is difficult. β
The two were taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What's the difficulty?"
Li Kou said: "The food there has eaten up a large part of our money. β
This made the two embarrassed, and they couldn't agree to give food to Li Kou on credit first.
But they must get the letter tonight.
Wang's grain store has begun to sell wheat to small grain merchants and soldiers and civilians at a price slightly higher than that of Shengdou grain store.
If the old grain of Cangsi was refused to be purchased by Li Kou, they would lose a lot of profits.
Eagerly, the two men brought good news.
Wang's grain store has been selling grain on Jingyuan Road, Huanqing Road and even Qinzhou.
"The price is more than twice as high as Weizhou, if Da Lang has a heart, we can help Da Lang contact the convoy, roads, and grain stores," the two revealed the truth, "Our Cangsi dare not act like this, and if we dare to do this during disaster relief, we will abandon the market, and despise the ......greed of Wang's grain store."
The foreman pleaded: "Why don't you take the opportunity to ......?"
"Strength does not allow it." Li Kou is seven points false and one point true, and the remaining two points are foolish, and said, "And it's only been a few days since the new opening of the Shengdou Grain Store?" If that's the case......"
This face was embarrassed, and the two knew that there was a door.
"It's okay, let's meet with our boss, and then come to Dalang to discuss." The two were willing to run around for a profit split.
Seeing the two away, Li Kou's smile turned cold.
Back at Miss Ma's boudoir, Li Kou asked how much money she had now.
"Enough." Miss Ma was open-minded and said very generously, "A slave is a woman's family, and she knows how to do great things." You are out there and you are only planning and making plans, and the money will be raised by the slaves. β
Li Kou glanced at her: "Where did you learn 'self-humility' from Yang Niangzi?" β
"That's how it should be." Miss Ma said happily, "Then let's start buying the Wang family's wheat tomorrow?" β
Li Kou shook his head.
Miss Ma was stunned.
"This time, let's lose money, spend more money, and after eating, let them take action, the local people who are looking for acquaintances, tonight they will go to Wang's grain store to buy wheat, tomorrow, and send some people to other states and counties, where there is a need for grain, it will be sold at a parity price, in addition," Li Kou said fiercely, "Set aside another part for me, tomorrow I will go to the woman of the Cao family, the locust plague on Xihe Road is heavier than Jingyuan Road, where is more needed for grain, this time, we must let these grain merchants make a lot of money," after a pause, he said again, " Forcing them to use inferior tactics to do something to us, it is time for the trained team to see some blood. β
