"Boss Zhang has made a lot of money, and he wants to collect the old man's good grain at last year's price, it's just a fool's dream, and since the autumn harvest, the grain merchants who come to the old man's house are endless, and there are ten taels of bids, originally the old man thought, you are a kind person, you look good, I think you will be more kind, who thinks, you are darker than those people!"

After hearing this, Zhang Shou immediately understood that it turned out that his subordinates came to purchase, but Zhuang Lao did not sell, not because Zhuang Lao wanted face, but because the price was not in place!

It's really old!

"Old Zhuang, what you said is not right, you yourself know that last year's purchase price of grain was fifty yuan a stone, and junior I directly gave you one or two silver and one stone, the gap is more than double, you only saw me sell a hundred taels of silver and a bucket of grain, but you didn't see how much I paid for it!"

"Junior, in order to make a name for myself, I use all the connections I can use, and I have to make dots up and down, publicity, this is all money, if not, your reputation will also spread throughout Xianyang City? Can you become the man of the year in Xianyang City? ”

"You can't see my junior success, just be red-eyed, just cross the river and tear down the bridge, that's not how to do business!" Zhang Shou crackled and gave a big push, telling his bitter feelings, his words were not made up to coax Zhuang Lao, it was a fact.

Zhuang Lao also knew that he was immoral, but he still couldn't accept the price of one tael of silver and one stone of grain, so he simply didn't speak.

Zhang Shou saw that Zhuang Lao didn't speak, a thick look of helplessness appeared on his face, and after a moment of contemplation, he sighed: "Okay, I'll give twenty taels, twenty taels and one stone, this can always be done!" ”

"One hundred and one stones!" Zhuang Lao said quietly.

Zhang Shou's eyes widened, good guy, this Zhuang Lao really regarded himself as a wronged boss!

"Thirty taels!"

"Ninety taels!"

"Oh, junior, I won't bargain with you anymore, a price, fifty taels of silver and one stone of grain, if you want to sell it, you can sell it, if you don't sell it!" Zhang Shou lost patience and directly burst out a number.

Zhuang Lao was silent, a contemplative look appeared between his eyebrows, and after pondering for a while, he picked up the somewhat cold teacup, took a sip lightly, and then said: "Okay, then fifty taels and one stone!" ”

Zhang Shou breathed a sigh of relief again, in fact, if Zhuang Lao still disagrees with fifty taels of silver and one stone of grain, he will not just forget it, and will continue to add it until Zhuang Lao is satisfied, no way, only Zhuang Lao's family in the whole world can grow this kind of food, and it is rare and expensive!

"How many stones?" Zhang Shou asked.

"This year's bumper harvest has been harvested, and I have collected eight stones and seven buckets, and I have left two stones and seven buckets as rations, and the rest will be sold to you, and the grain will be in the firewood room!" Zhuang Lao replied calmly.

Zhang Shou nodded, then turned around and shouted outside the courtyard: "Come on, move grain!" ”

The voice fell, eight big men walked into the small courtyard one after another, and then under the guidance of Zhuang Lao to the firewood room, the firewood room was full of dry firewood on one side, and six burlap bags full of grain on the other.

When the six stone grain moved to the small courtyard, Zhang Shou asked people to move sixty wooden boxes, the wooden box is very exquisite, the appearance is engraved with patterns, the wood is not ordinary wood, it is worth a lot, after the sixty wooden boxes were moved, Zhang Shou asked people to fill the wooden boxes with grain one after another.

Each wooden box can just hold a bucket of grain, sixty wooden boxes are full, that is, six stone grain, as for why the grain is packed into a delicate wooden box, naturally it is to create a noble appearance, otherwise transport a cart of linen grain, the grain will be invisibly dropped.

That's the packaging!

Waiting for 60 wooden boxes to be loaded into the 'open-top' carriage outside the courtyard in turn, Zhang Shou took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, the silver tickets were small and large, the small amount ranged from 102000 taels, and the large amount ranged from 1,000 to 20,000 taels.

Zhuang Lao took the silver ticket without joy or sadness, turned around and returned to the small courtyard, Zhang Shou did not stay for a long time, and soon returned to Xianyang City with a group of carriages and began to publicize it with great fanfare.

Zhuang Lao returned to the small courtyard, closed the door of the small courtyard, sat back on the chair, stuffed three silver tickets with a denomination of one hundred and two denominations into his arms, and then lay on the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.

"Knock! Knock! ”

Not long after Zhuang Lao closed his eyes and recuperated, there was a knock at the door, Zhuang Lao opened his eyes, and shouted impatiently: "Who! ”

"Zhuang Lao is me, Xiao Li!" A sonorous male voice came from outside the door.

Hearing the comer claim to himself, Zhuang Lao took a deep breath, got up from the chair unhurriedly, walked slowly to the door, opened the door, and as soon as the door opened, he saw a young man in his twenties and thirties standing outside the door with a rich smile on his face.

The young man was dressed in a tunic black officer and soldier uniform, a black square hat, and a sword hanging from his waist.

Xiao Li, a small officer and soldier in the county government of Xianyang County, has been an officer and soldier for less than two years, because Xiao Li's home is next to him, he is Zhuang Lao's neighbor, Zhuang Lao can be said to have watched Xiao Li grow up, and the relationship between Zhuang Lao and Xiao Li is also very good.

When Zhuang Lao was not in the limelight, Xiao Li did not help him less.

"Why are you here!" Zhuang Lao still had an impatient look on his face, and he didn't seem to have a good impression of this Xiao Li, and Xiao Li was not surprised by this, and replied with a smile: "The court issued a notice just now, and I came to tell you!" ”

Xiao Li knows very well the serious old man in front of him, this old man seems to be unkind, but in fact he is hard-faced and soft-hearted.

"The court issued a notice, what's the matter with the old man, it's okay, it's coming, come in and sit down!" Zhuang Lao said angrily, and after speaking, he turned around and returned to the small courtyard, and Xiao Li hurriedly followed.

After Zhuang Lao sat on the chair, Xiao Li smiled at Zhuang Lao and said: "Zhuang Lao, in the past, the notice issued by the imperial court, can you be interested, but this announcement is different, Your Majesty said, starting from this year, the whole territory of Daqin will implement the nursing home and pension policy, commonly known as the second pension policy!" ”

Zhuang Lao frowned slightly, and said with doubts in his tone: "What nursing home, what pension?" What are you talking about? Okay Xiao Li, old man, I haven't read a book, I don't understand, what does it mean, you just say it in vain! The more he talked about the back, the more impatient Zhuang Lao became.

PS: "Many brothers say that they are tired of watching the war scenes, so the author focuses on writing this side plot, I hope it can be written well, so that everyone can watch it comfortably, and I also hope that the brothers will give a support, and those who have the ability to reward all the monthly tickets, for the time being, if you don't have the financial ability, just vote for recommendations!" ”
