"City Lord."

"Ziping, looking at your complexion, it seems that the situation is not very good?"

"I have the trust of the city lord, I ......"

"It's okay, in business, I don't blame you for not being good at this."

Hearing this, Cheyenne was a little moved, after all, people are emotional animals.

"It seems that I can only go out myself."

“……？”

"Let's go, go to the nearest rice shop."

"Yes."

With a group of people and money, they left the inn, and Jiang Liu's gang went straight to the rice shop.

The boss really talked about friendship with Xia An, and when he saw Xia An enter the door, he greeted with a smile: "Ziping, here you go again." ”

"Brother Deyan, I'm bringing my city lord here this time."

"City Lord?"

"Uncle, in Xiajiang, the left city lord Jiang Liu, polite."

When he was idle, Jiang Liu learned a lot of etiquette from Jiang Dongxian, which was very natural and decent.

De Yan smiled and said: "It turned out to be the city lord of Jiangzuo, disrespectful and disrespectful, a few of you, please take a seat, Xiao Er, serve tea!" ”

The two sides took their seats, and the boss got straight to the point and said: "The Lord of Jiang City came here this time to buy grain and silver?" ”

Jiang Liu was quite surprised when he heard the word "buy silver", he didn't expect Xia An's head to be so flexible, and if he couldn't buy grain, he bought silver directly, but it didn't seem to be going well.

"Not bad."

"Then Ziping should have brought our reply to the city lord, right?"

"Yes."

"Then the city lord is here this time?"

"Buy rice, twice the price!"

It was 5 times higher than 1.5 times the price of Xia An, and the boss who listened to it jumped with his eyelids, and then not only took a sip of tea slowly, but shook his head.

"Triple as much!"

The boss breathed for a while, a little moved, but still shook his head.

"Five!"

"The city lord doesn't have to test anymore, I'll give a price, eight times! If it's eight times the price, I'll agree to sell it. You must know that the signs of drought this year have become apparent, and by the end of the year, food prices have risen at least tenfold. ”

"Huh...... My husband has been in business all his life, and this account doesn't seem to be clear. ”

"What do you mean, city lord?"

"There are two villages on the left side of the river, named Xiaohua Village and Daping Village, and there is a small river between the two villages, and the water volume of this small river has decreased by 20% in the past month. Moreover, in the first half of the year, the rainfall has become less and less, and from the point of view, this year is likely not to be a simple drought, but a drought in the red land. When the price of grain is ten times as simple as that, I am afraid that twenty times is also priceless. ”

The boss didn't understand what Jiang Liu meant.

"What does the city lord mean?"

"Thousands of miles of red land, the people are not living, and they are starving all over the wilderness, what do you say if people can't survive?"

The boss's face was already faintly pale.

"Do you still remember what happened to Chen Sheng and Wu Guang back then?"

These words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and the shocked boss jumped up from his seat.

Cheyenne also looked at Jiang Liu in disbelief, how did he judge this drought?

"Wait a minute, the city lord, I'll go and ask the young master."

Soon, a handsome young man came out of the back room.

"Haha, it turned out to be Brother Jiang! What a coincidence. ”

"Brother Gongyan, where don't you meet in life, please take a seat."

"Where do you not meet in life, this is very charming."

"It's over, it's over."

The two politely got to the point.

"What Deyan said just now is what Brother Jiang said in his heart?"

"Naturally. With public opinion, what are the interests of shops? It's better to accept it when you see it, and be safe. And the time saved in the process is also money. ”

Jiang Wan nodded, agreeing with Jiang Liu's opinion.

In fact, he doesn't want to hoard Juqi, and he feels that it is not good to compete with the people, but the family is like this, and he is not good at standing out in this circle, and he must abide by some basic rules of the game, and cannot go against the interests of the family.

"Okay, I'll sell it."

"Thank you."

"How much are you going to buy?"

"I brought 100 gold, 100,000 yuan."

"With so much grain, it seems that Brother Jiang is really sure about this year's drought."

"I'm sure of the drought, but I don't buy grain for the drought."

"Oh?" Jiang Wan's curiosity was obviously aroused.

"I buy grain to sell it at a fair price, but I only accept silver settlements."

"Silver?"

"Jiangzuo City is not short of food, if there is a day when the Jiang family is in need, they can move to Jiangzuo City to live, and if they have silver, they are welcome to exchange food."

"I take the liberty of asking, what do you want silver for?"

"Secret."

"Okay, good luck then."

100 gold, 100,000 yuan, according to five times the current market price, Jiang Liu received a total of 350 stone of grain, a full 70 bags of hemp.

"Thank you, Brother Gongyan."

"This is a business, Brother Jiang doesn't have to be so polite."

At the time of parting, Jiang Wan stopped Jiang Liu, which surprised him.

He knew that he didn't have this condition to recruit Jiang Wan at this stage, so he went very simply, wanting to quickly exchange the grain for silver so as to brush up the population, but he didn't expect Jiang Wan to ask him to stay.

After a while, Jiang Wan took the silver basin handed over by the owner of the rice shop, and said: "Business is business, affection is affection, I will take you as a confidant, since you need this silverware, I will give it to you." ”

"What's the situation? Is this a confidant? Although he didn't understand what the situation was, it didn't prevent Jiang Liu from beating the snake with the stick, took the silver basin, and said, "Take a silver basin for nothing, how embarrassing it is." ”

"......" Jiang Wan was a little speechless, and said secretly: "I'm sorry, you still take it so naturally?" ”

"That's it, why don't you and my brother kiss each other, how about you being my eldest brother?"

"Ahem......" Jiang Wan was choked and speechless.

This kind of scoundrel, shameless, and somewhat appealing way of talking and doing things, how does Jiang Wan feel a little familiar, as if he has heard it somewhere?

Jiang Liu is not a person who doesn't know how to do it, others are so good to him, and he is really embarrassed.

Seeing that Jiang Wan was very embarrassed, he said decisively: "Haha! I'm kidding you, but I see that you have to be restrained all day long, and you have to relax once in a while. ”

Jiang Wan smiled slightly and replied, "Got it." ”

Jiang Liu reached out and patted Jiang Wan's shoulders heavily, and said with a smile: "Let's go!" ”

"Well, walk slowly."

Xia An commanded the convoy to leave, and Jiang Liu held a silver basin at the end of his sight and said loudly: "Don't worry about the road ahead, no one in the world knows you!" I'm waiting for the day when you will be famous! ”

After speaking loudly, Jiang Liu's face was relaxed, in order to leave a deep impression on Jiang Wan, he deliberately slowed down the speed of the convoy, and searched for a few pitiful famous sentences that he still vaguely remembered, and after a few minutes of brewing, he finally installed this force.

Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Jiang Wan, who was standing in place to see Jiang Liu off, was flushed, and a sense of pride and impulse surged in his chest, but then he was pressed down by the heavy responsibility.

The emergence of the children of the family is not simply personal interests, but also the consideration of family interests, as the most outstanding son of the Jiang family, he cannot make his own decisions casually.
