When those grain merchants heard this, they realized that Li Qi was using this to satirize them, although they were not hard-hearted, they would never be easy characters to deal with.

One person said: "Economic envoy, you blame us for this qiē, it's a bit too far-fetched, this is the matter that the imperial court should be in charge of, what do we have to do." You also said just now, scarce things are expensive, food is small, and naturally sold expensive, which is understandable, in business, how can you not be drunk in Xianju, your world's unparalleled, Han Bao, canned food which is not expensive? ”

This person is the proprietor of Sima's rice shop in Nancheng, called Sima Hao.

Li Qi shook his head and said: "You are not scarcity and expensive, but killing chickens and taking eggs, if you are in business, you are my enemy, even the enemy of any businessman." Doing business, doing business, no one buys, how do we go about selling? This is especially true for you, one less person in the world, you are equivalent to one less customer, one less employee, you will kill your own customers with your own hands, and likewise, you will also strangle the customers of other merchants, including my drunken immortal residence, if you come so many times, I can tell you with great certainty that you will follow in their footsteps, the skin will not exist, and the hair will be attached. ”

Gu Yuanwai said: "Economic envoy, no matter what, we didn't trigger the law by doing this, and you, as an official of the imperial court, are you targeting us like this, are you using the public for personal gain?" ”

"No, no, no."

Li Qi shook his head and said: "Before today, I have never intervened in this matter as an economic envoy, if I want to use the public for personal gain, it is up to you, I will bankrupt you within three months." ”

Sima Hao snorted and said, "The economy makes this a bit exaggerated. ”

"Really?" Li Qi laughed and said, "If you want people to know." Unless you don't do anything, you have evaded countless taxes, and even concealed a lot of land, I won't talk about it, last time Fang La rebelled, and the court lacked food. You are in cahoots with the three wolves, selling grain mixed with half of the weeds and stones to the court at a high price, and pit the court's money, do you think I don't know? The so-called wise man has a thousand thoughts, and there will be a mistake, and you have done so many wrong things. Is it true that everything is done without leaving a trace? I guess it's hard. Of course, you are all powerful businessmen. The backstage is very hard, but have you forgotten the lesson of the scholar this time, as long as I collect your evidence and publish it to the world, even if the court wants to protect you, I am afraid there will be nothing I can do. Whoever wants to try the taste of newspapers, I am happy to satisfy him. ”

When the grain merchants heard this, they remembered the tragic situation of the scholar again. The beads of sweat on my face were getting more and more.

Hum! Presumably this is the truest portrayal of being a thief. Li Qi naturally deliberately frightened them, if he really did this, it would be a dead fish, and his life would never be easy. said so, just to remind you, don't covet this little profit, when the country is ruined, even if you have more food in your hands, you won't be able to sell it." I don't want to hide it from you, in fact, I always thought that it was normal for you to do this, and the emperor planned to directly put pressure on you to lower the price of grain, but I stopped you, because you did not break the law, and it was untenable for the court to intervene, so I chose another way. I'm not doing this to hurt you, but to remind you that what you've done in the past is wrong, and it's so wrong. ”

Gu Yuanwai said: "Then I don't know what the economic envoy has to teach?" Gu is willing to hear about it. ”

"It's very simple, cooperate with our Commerce Bureau." Li Qi said with both hands.

"How to cooperate?"

Li Qi said: "First of all, it is natural to cooperate with our Bureau of Commerce to stabilize food prices. ”

"How much?"

"At a minimum, two hundred wen per bucket."

"How can this work, at least two hundred and fifty wen have to be sold, and when Fang La had not yet revolted, it was also two hundred and sixty wen, let alone now."

Li Qi said with a smile: "Don't worry, I haven't finished yet, first of all, to stabilize the price of grain, and secondly, I plan to see the price control of grain within three years. ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Li Qi in disbelief, and secretly thought, we would rather you didn't finish speaking.

Li Qi smiled and said: "You must think that I am talking about a dream, but have you ever thought that the grain business is actually not easy to do, if you buy low, you can't make money, and if you sell high, the court is not happy, and the people are not happy, and you have to be scolded, and it is difficult to be a person in the middle." ”

Gu Yan snorted lightly: "It's good for the economic envoy to know." ”

Li Qi Zhengse said: "The people take food as the sky, this grain is the foundation of my Great Song Dynasty, and further, the people and farmers are the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, who are you hoarding and hurting, it can't be us rich people, isn't it those farmers, the farmers are starving to death, who will grow food, you go, or I go?" Isn't this just killing chickens and taking eggs? It's just that there are still a lot of chickens now, and you won't be able to see the effect for a while, and when your children and grandchildren are in their generation, they will always taste the consequences. Why can't you just look a little further and help the peasants first, and the money will come naturally. ”

The eldest man of the Xu family's rice shop, that is, Xu Fei's brother, said: "Economic envoy, we all know what you said, but we also have our difficulties, we still have to hand over a large part of the profits, if the price of this grain is too low, then we can't do it." ”

The rest of the people nodded their heads, there were still people above them, and they had to hand over the required amount every year.

Li Qi nodded and said: "I understand your distress very well, but I'm sorry, the recent policy changes in the imperial court need your help, even your backstage must cooperate, of course, if your backstage is hard enough, you can be bigger than the emperor, then I don't say anything." ”

Everyone was silent for a while, who dared to be bigger than the emperor, but judging from Song Huizong's recent attitude, he also knew that Song Huizong was on Li Qi's side.

This pressure has been given, ugly things have been said, it's time to throw out the temptation, this is Li Qi's consistent means of doing business, first suppress your momentum, and then talk about business, in that case, it will get twice the result with half the effort. He said: "I don't know if you have ever thought about it, in fact, with your strength and advantages, you can develop more ways to make money, which is much better than food." ”

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, and they said in unison: "What is the way to make money?" ”

Richie laughed, "Processed food." ”

"Processed foods?"

Everyone looked at each other. I don't know why.

Li Qi suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Take it." ”

I saw more than a dozen servants come up with trays, on which were placed cups of hot milk and some various pastries, some golden, some yellow with green, some gray. There are milky white ones.

When the servants saw that the milk and cakes were distributed to the grain merchants, Li Qicai said, "This is my latest milk and biscuits, you might as well try them, there are no ones on the market." ”

Eat it, I'm afraid you won't make it.

Everyone picked up a biscuit and put it in their mouths, and bit down on it. The expression on his face changed.

Gu Yan took a piece of green onion cake and exclaimed: "It's so rich and fragrant!" ”

One of the people next to him said: "My cake is also extremely crispy, and the wheat is delicious." ”

"I still have almonds in it. It's delicious. ”

After tasting it, the crowd was full of praise for this biscuit.

Li Qi said, "Everyone, if this biscuit is drunk with hot milk, it will be even more delicious." ”

Now that the brains of these grain merchants have been occupied by the delicacy, they don't want to do anything, do as Li Qi says, and take another sip of hot milk. This made them immediately change their perception of milk, not only did it not smell fishy at all, but it was full of milky aroma. Sweet, eaten with cookies, it's delicious.

A mouthful of biscuits, a mouthful of milk, and in less than a moment, they eliminated the pastries on the plate, but there was still some unfinished business.

Li Qi said, "What do you think?" ”

"The craftsmanship of the economic envoy, of course, there is nothing to say."

"I believe that this biscuit and milk will help the economy make a lot of money."

"Yes, yes, the business of the economy must be on a higher level."

Li Qi waved his hand and said, "No, it should be said to help us make more money." These cookies are processed foods. ”

Everyone was stunned. Sima Hao said: "The economic envoy doesn't want to cooperate with us to do this business, right?" ”

Li Qi nodded and said, "Do you think I'm afraid that you will be hungry and eat me?" ”

Everyone had just eaten enough, and when they remembered what Li Qi said, they almost didn't squirt out, this economic envoy is not only a madman, but also prefers heavy tastes.

Li Qi smiled: "The same grain, but if it is processed a little, then the price will have to be doubled, and this is the only one in the world, this is the real profiteering, and biscuits are only the tip of the iceberg in grain processing products, we can also cooperate to develop more processed food, this is like those fruit trees in the orchard, the business you are doing now is undoubtedly to dig up the roots of the fruit trees and sell them as firewood, how much can this earn, how long can this earn?" However, processed food is like planting fruit trees and then taking the fruit and selling it, which is the right way. ”

Gu Yan said: "This business economy allows you to do it alone, why do you want to wait for me cheaply, I don't think it will be so simple." ”

Li Qi said: "Gu Yuanwai's words are not bad, this biscuit is not a dish, it must be made and eaten, it can be stored for a long time, similar to canned, that is, it can be sold to neighboring countries, involving a wide range, I want to eat such a big cake alone, it takes a long time, if you have help, then soon this biscuit can be sold all over the world, it has its own advantages and disadvantages, but I am more inclined to Zhonglele." ”

Those grain merchants will definitely not believe Li Qi's words, if you are good, then you can take out the canned food and share it with the world's unparalleled! Gu Yan said: "That's all? ”

Sure enough, all of them are old fritters! Li Qi said: "Of course not, this processed food is a way to make money, but it can also open up another way to make money." ”

"Oh? I don't know where this financial path is? ”

"Seize food from abroad."

The crowd was amazed. Li Qi said with a smile: "The reason is very simple, you first use these processed foods to enter the foreign grain industry, and then take the opportunity to buy the grain of their country, transport it back to our Great Song Dynasty, and then make it into biscuits, and sell them abroad at a high price. The only requirement of the imperial court is to stabilize the price of grain in the country, and never allow high-priced grain and cannibalism. As long as you are willing to cooperate with the imperial court, I can guarantee that there will be milk and biscuits, and it will not be less than what you are earning now, and it will even be of great benefit to your backstage. ”

Those grain merchants looked at each other, thought for a while, and said, "I'm afraid we have to go back and discuss this matter carefully." ”

Li Qi also knew that many of them couldn't be the masters, so he nodded and smiled: "Of course you can, but I don't have much time to wait for you, after all, there are not only a few grain merchants in the world, but also many people waiting for me to throw an olive branch." Oh, I have to warn you, you also don't have time to wait any longer, the price of food outside has dropped to 170 yuan. (To be continued)
