Isn't it just to show off your strength by making so many moves? In order to suppress Wei Bao?

Looking at Wu Xiang's meaning now, his own set just now was not only completely ineffective, but also made Wei Bao fall into Wu Xiang's eyes all of a sudden!

Otherwise, why would people do business with Wei Bao, and this is still when he is by his side, it is obvious that Wu Xiang has completely ignored himself.

Anger!

Zu Kefa's body was not trembling now, and his calves and stomach were not trembling, but his heart was twisted into a knife, and the knife seemed to be scraping his stomach and intestines, and all his internal organs were in pain.

Wei Bao's move to do good deeds is too ruthless.

Not only the Wu family, but almost all the big families present moved, and a bunch of entourages of the heads of large households walked towards Wei Bao, and they had already begun to negotiate the price, where is there still a banquet? Everyone has long forgotten the original intention of today's banquet.

This kind of thing is typical of having one, and it can immediately form a swarm of scenes!

It's equivalent to picking up money, who will be willing to fall behind when picking up money?

As a big family, whether it is officialdom or shopping malls, in fact, they have not completely detached themselves from doing business, especially the officials who hold power in their hands, they are even more crazy about doing business, and even the business of the coffin shop is eager to put on a lever, how can they not do food business

The most common and basic business in the Ming Dynasty is the grain business.

In the end, not to mention the entourage of the heads of these big households, even the principals themselves ran over to surround Wei Bao to negotiate the price.

Where is there still a banquet, the venue is empty, only a few people are left who have not moved, and there are more than a dozen poor talents, sitting on the side seats, and the whole venue is empty.

Even the prefect Zu Guangyao sent Zu Chuncai to negotiate the price, and Zu Chuncai was originally today's 'host'.

Zu Guangyao was not in the mood to distribute the uniforms and waist cards of those talents, so he casually asked a servant to issue them instead of him.

Zheng Zhongfei sat on the side seat, took the student uniform and waist card in a daze, and looked at Wei Bao, who was surrounded by stars and moons, the whole person was very empty, as if his soul had been drained.

It seems that no matter how sinister things in this world are, when they come to Wei Bao, they can become good things?

Although today's matter is not about him Zheng Zhongfei from beginning to end, Zheng Zhongfei doesn't know why, he is afraid and ashamed, as if he himself has been humiliated, especially when he looks at Wei Bao's high-spirited appearance in the circle of all the stars and moons, he doesn't dare to look at it, and if he looks at it, he will be hurt once.

After a while, more than 200 people surrounded Wei Bao and wanted to sell grain.

"There are too many people, come one by one, as long as the price is right, take them! Anyway, it is to do good deeds for the local people, and everyone hopes that the local people do not have to go out to escape the famine. Wei Baole said loudly to everyone.

Everyone unanimously agreed, nodded yes, but didn't think about Wei Bao's beautiful words in their hearts, but saw that so many people were going to sell food, and together, they could take out millions of stones, right?

The food shortage in Daming is all over the place, saying that it is caused by the natural disaster of the Xiaoice River Age, but in fact, in Wei Bao's view, it is completely man-made!

First of all, the central court has no ability to control and control, if the imperial power has a strong ruling strength, the disaster situation in various places is uniformly announced, the grain is allocated and replenished in various places, and the central government takes out some silver to make up for the difference, and the central government will allocate it uniformly, so that such a large land, with a population of only 100 million, can be leveled out, so as not to let the displaced people everywhere rise up and fall into a situation of rebellion and chaos.

However, the central court does not mean that change can be changed, and the weakening is not overnight, it has been more than half a century, and it is difficult to return.

If the central government is in vain, the big landlord class below will be excessively powerful, resulting in the control of local collectives formed by large families in various places, and hoarding everywhere, so that a situation in which there is actually enough food, but a large number of people continue to starve to death.

Because food can stand up to storage! It's easy to cause hoarding.

In this market, it is not a special problem, this iron plate is impossible to break, which will cause a long-term higher than three taels of silver and one stone of grain, and sometimes even reach the outrageous price of five taels of silver and one stone of grain.

Now there is a variable, that is, Wei Bao, Wei Bao buys a large amount of grain in the name of doing good deeds, and this iron plate is broken all of a sudden!

Get out all the food hoarded in the hands of the big families, not to mention that the food is enough, and within five years, you don't have to worry about the food shortage here, which is completely man-made.

Now everyone has seen this collapse, but there is nothing they can do about it.

Of the people present, which one is not in business and which one has no brains?

But there are many people, and the momentum is not right, so they are all anxious.

"Wei Gongzi, I have more than 20,000 stones of grain in my hand, and I only need 3 taels of silver and one stone!" A grain merchant laboriously approached Wei Bao's side and said softly.

There are too many people, and they are all too close, no matter how soft they are, they can be heard by others.

Before Wei Bao could answer.

"I'm 2 taels and 8 cents for one stone of grain! Wei Gongzi, I have more than 10,000 stones of grain in my hands! A man suddenly shouted.

"Wei Gongzi, I only need 2 taels and 6 yuan! I will cover your 100,000 taels of silver! ”

"Wei Gongzi, I have 2 taels and 5 yuan, and I have all your food!"

"I've got it! 2 taels 4 money! ”

"I've got it! 2 taels 3 money! ”

"Don't make any noise, I told Wei Gongzi first! Wei Gongzi, I only need 2 taels and 2 dollars! I'll get you as much as you want! ”

Another person hurriedly shouted loudly: "Master Wei, I can produce 50,000 stone grain!" I only need 2 taels of silver and one stone! ”

Zu Chuncai, Wu Sanfu and other people who are familiar with Wei Bao, where can they squeeze in? Everyone is sweating outside listening, this price is falling too fast, right?

Wei Bao sweated, surprised and delighted, although he had expected this situation before, he deliberately raised the price of food to 4 taels of silver and one stone, not to show his own atmosphere, and to be selfless, not for personal profit, knowing that these people are gathered together, when they actually buy, they will definitely take a big dive, but they didn't expect that this dive is too fierce, right? Did it jump to half the price in an instant?

The crowd was in a hurry, and the price of food continued to fall, like a dive, and it could not be stopped.

Not everyone wants to sell the grain quickly, for example, Wei Bao's classmate, Fang Anping's father Fang Yuantong, is the largest local grain merchant, and he has hoarded more than 300,000 stone of grain in his hands, he is most afraid of this situation! The more grain he hoards, the higher the purchase price, otherwise people will not put the grain there for him, and his purchase cost will exceed 1 tael and 4 yuan of silver!

A person like him, who specializes in the grain business to make a living, not only has no living money in his hands, but also owes a lot of usury in order to hoard Juqi, in addition to all the money turned into grain!

If he fell like this again, he would first go bankrupt.

The acquisition cost and hoarding cost of ordinary large households are mostly about 8 yuan of silver, and they don't particularly care, it's naturally good to make a handful, but they really can't make it, they can protect their capital, and they can accept it, because they don't mainly rely on this to make money.

"Couldn't go any lower! Everyone has forgotten that at the last banquet, everyone reached an agreement? Fang Yuantong was anxiously on the periphery, reminding everyone loudly.

Fang Anping also shouted loudly with a crying voice: "Master Wei, we are classmates, we can't lower the price anymore!" How much grain are you going to collect? ”

Wei Bao couldn't hear what Fang Anping was saying, but he could probably guess the meaning, because Wei Bao knew what Fang Anping was doing at home.

"Go borrow a blank account book, and a pen, register now!" Make a contract now! Let them start delivering grain to Weijiazhuang today! Wei Bao hurriedly said to Liu Chunshi beside him. If Wei Bao can't grasp this kind of good situation, then he is not Wei Bao.

"Okay, Childe!" Liu Chunshi agreed loudly and hurriedly squeezed out. Now he is no longer the old-fashioned old boy he used to be, but a talented man who is proficient in business.

Wei Bao looked at Wu Xuexia, who was still beside him, squeezed, almost clinging to him.

Wu Xuexia wanted to go out, but everyone was around her, and she couldn't get out at all.

Wu Xuexia also glanced at Wei Bao.

The two looked at each other, and in this noisy environment, there was a sweet and sour taste in each other's hearts.

"Wei Gongzi, I have 3,000 stone of grain in my hand, 1 tael of silver and one stone of grain, can I make a deal?" A fat man asked loudly! This person is not mainly in the grain business, there are too many people, it is too crowded, and the fat man feels tired after standing for a while, so he wants to go out early.

Hearing the fat man say this, the scene suddenly exploded, and after a bunch of wailing, no one spoke.

Fang Anping's father, Fang Yuantong and Fang Anping, only felt that the sky was dark, and there was a feeling of being in the end of the world.

Once the price of one or two lines of silver and one stone of grain is shouted, it means that the price of grain in western Liaoning has returned to normal! They will lose more than 100,000 taels of silver at one time!

"Deal!" Wei Bao patted the fat man on the shoulder, and said loudly to Liu Chunshi, who was squeezing back: "Register this master, 3,000 stone of grain, 1 two pieces of silver and one stone of grain, deal!" ”

Liu Chunshi agreed loudly: "Okay, son!" Everyone, let me pass. ”

"Wei Gongzi, I have 4,000 stone of grain, 1 tael of silver and one stone of grain, can I also make a deal?" Another big family owner who was beside Wei Bao hurriedly said.

Wei Bao nodded and said, "It's also a deal!" Wait for that old brother to register the deed just now, right? ”

The man agreed, half-sadly, half-happily: "No hurry." ”

He was worried that this trip to do grain trading was done in vain, 4,000 stone of grain, at most three or four hundred taels of silver, minus labor costs, hoarding costs, and more than a year of maintenance costs, at most about three hundred taels of silver.

Happily, this matter has finally been resolved, and it seems that the grain prices in western Liaoning will be difficult to rebound within a year or two.

Seeing that everyone was sticking to the bottom line of one or two lines of silver and refusing to lower it any longer, Wu Xuexia said to Wei Bao: "I will sell you 200,000 stone of grain, 8 yuan of silver and one stone of grain!" ”

200,000 stone grain? 8 money pattern silver stone grain?

That's 160,000 taels of silver.

Didn't Wei Bao just say before that he was willing to spend 100,000 taels of silver to do good deeds?

These 200,000 stone grains come out, not to mention the food shortage, the entire Yongping Mansion, the entire Liaoxi, the grain is going to be piled up into a mountain, right?

The people were about to break down, thinking they had heard it wrong.

The audience fell silent.

Wei Bao was also full of questions, I don't know why Wu Xuexia wanted to help herself like this, she originally bought food at the price of one or two lines of silver and one stone of grain, Wei Bao was already satisfied! A thousand stones of grain does not cost about a hundred taels of silver, which is acceptable to Wei Bao.

Now the price of Wu Xuexia's 8 money pattern silver and one stone of grain is equivalent to dropping the grain price in western Liaoning to the bottom all of a sudden, and it is so low that it can't be lower!

Wei Bao couldn't understand why Wu Xuexia spared no effort to help herself.

Wu Xuexia actually has her own plans, she knows that Wei Bao is a very smart person, and after making money, it is impossible not to show something to the Wu family! Since the price of grain has been pulled like this, it is better to simply send out all the grain of the Wu family, and make a little money by the way.

"Since Miss Wu promised to sell me 200,000 stone of grain, 8 yuan of silver and one stone of grain, then I think the people of the entire Liaoxi are not worried about food, right? At least there is no need to worry about it this year, I thank Miss Wu on behalf of tens of thousands of villagers. Wei Bao smiled: "No problem, deal!" ”

Wu Xuexia smiled at Wei Bao: "Then I will thank Wei Gongzi on behalf of the Wu family." ”

This business is considered to be completed.

Although I don't know what Wu Xuexia means, Wei Bao is a businessman at the moment, and his business soul is possessed, so he only thinks about how to make more profits, and he can't take care of anything else for the time being.

Wu Sanfu and Wu Sanfeng, who were on the periphery, were stunned when they heard the news, but neither of them said anything.

Wu Sanfu is a big character who doesn't care about anything, and he doesn't know how to calculate grain prices and profits at all.

Wu Sanfeng is clear about everything, but he knows that his sister generally does not call the shots directly, and his sister is a very shrewd person who has never suffered a loss, so she must have her own intentions in doing so.

Therefore, Wu Sanfeng forcibly endured and did not refute Wu Xuexia's face in front of everyone, but hurriedly turned around and walked to the mansion compound, wanting to inform his father Wu Xiang of the news as soon as possible.

"Wei Gongzi, are you still buying grain now?" A wealthy man asked worriedly.

Wei Bao looked puzzled: "I don't want to do a grain business, I just want to help the local people." ”

"Wei Gongzi, I still have 8,000 stone of grain, 7 coins of silver!" A small rich man who wants to do speculative business endured the pain.

"Wei Gongzi, I also have 5,000 stone of grain, and I also sold it to Wei Gongzi for 7 yuan silver, is it done?" A wealthy man hurriedly chimed in.

He is also a person who has borrowed money, and he knows that if he continues like this, let alone return the capital within a year, once these grains are smashed in his hands, and the lenders come to run, he can be forced to sell his land and real estate, and when the time comes, he may not even be able to go back home! Maybe there won't even be a single hair left!

"I also have the price of 7-karat gold tattoo silver! I have 2000 stone of grain. ”

"I'm 7 coins and a stone! I have 1500 stone of grain. ”

A group of merchants who originally planned to sell it to Wei Bao at the price of one or two pieces of silver, but now that the situation is not right, they have all lowered the price to 7 pieces of silver, which is the last low price! This is their bottom line, this kind of disaster year has lasted for many years, 7 coins of silver and one stone of grain, this is a low price that has not appeared for seven or eight consecutive years.

Fang Anping's father Fang Yuantong was angry in his heart, when he bought it, the best deal had to be more than one or two pieces of silver and one stone of grain, but he didn't expect that Wei Bao was buying grain now, and it could be as low as 7 dollars of silver and one stone of grain?

Who can stand this?

The two fathers and son's ears were full of buzzing sounds, and they felt that the world had become dark.

"Okay, let's all register, since everyone is so enthusiastic to help the victims, I will represent the people of Liaoxi and Liaodong, thank you." Wei Baole laughed. Now I deeply feel that doing good deeds is really a great way to make money.

As the saying goes, what you take in advance must be with it first, and this is a very reasonable sentence.

When everyone heard Wei Gongzi say this, they suddenly agreed, and they all surrounded Liu Chunshi, asking for registration and signing a contract!

I'm afraid that if Wei Bao changes his mind, the food will be smashed in their own hands, and now it seems that don't talk about this year! Even next year, there will be no shortage of food in the entire western and eastern Liaoning, right?
