Out of the Songhe Tower, Yue Siliang stretched a big lazy waist and exhaled a breath of turbidity.

"Quack~quack~"

There were a few old eagles falling on the dead branches of an old tree next to the restaurant, and there was a lot of noise there.

"Phew! Bad luck! ”

Lei Zi spat fiercely, and raised his foot to kick away the wild dogs on the side of the road. They came here today, and just after inquiring about the news in the restaurant, they heard the crows chirping when they went out, which is indeed quite unlucky. But Yue Siliang shook his head indifferently, he has no taboos, this crow cries every day, and the entire Lingqiu City doesn't know that there are hundreds or thousands of people who hear crows crying every day, can so many people still be unlucky together?

"Let's go, let's go to this Hengji to see what he Fan Jianwen has the ability to control the food price of the entire Lingqiu."

At this time, the market was not as lively as imagined, and the entire county town was covered with a shadow since the Japanese, and the merchants were not sure of the temper of the Japanese, and they did not dare to make a big show of business. After all, many old people still remember the Gengzi Boxing Rebellion back then, although they haven't seen it, but they have all heard the story of the Eight-Nation Alliance Army dividing the entire Sijiu City. Now there are more than a thousand foreigners in Lingqiu, even though they are Orientals who are about the same as the eldest family, that is enough to cause panic in people's hearts.

Avoiding the horse manure that was not cleaned up on the road, and letting the carriages pass by from time to time, Yue Siliang and his party finally came to Hengji Grain Store.

The lintel of Heng Kee is not as tall as imagined, on the contrary, it looks very inconspicuous, and the font size on the simple wooden plaque is also difficult to distinguish. Beneath the plaque is a door of ordinary width and narrowness.

"What about you people!"

It didn't matter if Yue Siliang said much, Lei Zi took the lead and walked into the door of Hengji. As soon as he entered the door, Leizi's loud voice began to shout, and the sound was so loud that he wanted to shake off the dust on the beams.

"Alas! I said you can't be quiet? The noise is deafening! ……”

The guy in Heng Ji is obviously not a good stubble, and when he saw Lei Zi yelling here, he was a stalk in his neck. However, when he saw the gate-like figure of Lei Zi clearly, coupled with the menacing momentum of the soldiers of the guard platoon, he spoke a little shorter at that time.

"What are you here for? If you want to find fault, I advise you to go to another house, don't find yourself unhappy......"

As soon as the man's words were halfway through, Lei Zi reached out and grabbed his shoulder, and pushed him two or three meters away with one hand.

"Go to the side! I can't tell you, so I call your shopkeeper out. ”

This pestle pushed the man's shoulder hotly and painfully, and he immediately understood that the lord was stunned. He smacked his neck and turned out the back door.

"Sir, do you think I'm okay like this?"

When Lei Zi saw the guy leave the front hall, he felt a little bottomless in his heart. After all, this place is different from other places, if there is a big trouble, and the two sides make a move to make Yue Siliang have any mistakes, then he really can't afford it.

"It's okay, we didn't come here to make money this time, if we are too polite, they will look down on us."

Yue Siliang is a lot calmer, and he is also careful about making trouble. It may seem like an impulsive move, but as long as you get the size right, it's a thrilling thing.

It didn't take long for the guy to leave the front hall, and he heard a burst of chaos behind him, and then rushed out of the back door, more than a dozen people, seeing that these people should be Heng Kee's own buddies, and there are many things in their hands, wooden sticks and short sticks, and some are even crowbars used when carrying food.

Looking at the dozen or so people who surrounded himself and others in the middle, Yue Siliang nodded secretly, thinking that this Heng Ji shopkeeper could be regarded as an understanding person, and he would not be shocked by being pushed by a guy.

"Where did the people come from to make trouble with us?"

Behind the many men was a broadly dressed shopkeeper, dressed in a satin robe and covered with a silk coat. A thick black mink hat is worn on his head, and a pair of glasses are stuck on the bridge of his nose, and the two small mustaches are clearly distinguished. Standing behind the crowd, he couldn't stop looking at Lei Zi and them.

"I beg the treasurer's pardon."

At this moment, the soldiers scattered on both sides, and Yue Siliang walked out from the middle, with a smile on his face, and said without humility or arrogance after bowing.

"Just now my family was ignorant and offended the guys in your store. But as the saying goes: when you enter the door, you are a guest. Since your store is open to welcome customers, where is the reason to drive customers out? We came all the way to deliver business to the door, and what is the reason why your guys don't welcome customers, but go out to pick up customers? My family is beating him, he doesn't talk about people!

Now, what is the reason why you, the shopkeeper, asked such a group of people to surround us here without asking for any reason? Is it still impossible for us to be bullied by foreign traders? Without three handfuls of Shensha, I dare not reverse Xiqi. Although we are only in business, we are by no means easy to bully! ”

Yue Siliang's words were stunned at the time, and the first thing he saw when he came out with his buddies was Lei Zi. It's hard to be crazy about Lei Zi's body, even if you want to keep others from paying attention to him.

However, the moment Yue Siliang appeared, Shopkeeper Jiao knew that the person opposite was the main owner. It's not just that the clothes are different, Yue Siliang's temperament can't deceive people. As soon as Yue Siliang opened his mouth, Shopkeeper Jiao was stunned at the time, the other party could be said to be a good export, and it was soft and hard, and he was speechless when he asked him.

"Uh...... This gentleman, Jiao was rude...... Go down......"

Yue Siliang made it clear that they didn't come here to make trouble. If he held on to it, it would seem like he was too low.

In his opinion, Yue Siliang belongs to the kind of businessman who has some means to go south and north, and there is no need for a person like this to offend himself, although he is not optimistic about being able to do business with the other party today. The lord told him before, don't think about doing any serious business in the past three months, the lord wants to use Heng Ji to pave his career, he is just a shopkeeper, or he has to work according to the owner's instructions.

"This gentleman, Jiao Mou is not compensated for the faux pas just now, but I don't know what business you want to do when you come to our Heng Kee? Let me tell you a truth, recently we have a little situation in Heng, I am afraid that we may not be able to do the business you want. ”

Shopkeeper Jiao is also a good person, and he gave Yue Siliang a soft knife in three or two sentences, and also left a way back for himself.

Yue Siliang first scolded the old fox in his heart, and then spoke again.

"Shopkeeper Jiao, brother, I'm not here for anything else. It's just one word: food! I heard that your Hengji is the largest grain store in Lingqiu, and I want to get some grain from you. As long as the price is right, I want as much as I want! ”

As soon as Yue Siliang's words came out, Shopkeeper Jiao's face became embarrassed. What they want to say now is that there is indeed no shortage of food, and although the treasury was half emptied before, some have been collected from below in the past few days. There is some grain in the storehouse, but his owner has repeatedly instructed him not to sell as much grain as he wants.

"This gentleman, I don't know what you call ......"

"It's easy to say, the surname of the contemptible person is Gao."

Yue Siliang didn't blink his eyelids, and casually said a fake surname.

"Oh, Mr. Gao. To tell you the truth, I believe you also know the price of food in Lingqiu now. The whole of Shanxi is at war, and the price of grain is getting higher and higher. If you really want to make a batch...... What about the price......

Shopkeeper Jiao smiled meaninglessly, he knew how expensive Fan Jianwen bit him to death, and he didn't believe that the other party would agree after he said such a price.

"It's easy to say the price, as long as you give a quasi-price, everything is easy to raise, isn't it?"

Yue Siliang smiled heartily, at this time, his business mouth was like a Confucian businessman who had been trained for many years, and he looked at Lei Zi on the side and secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart.

"Then I'll just say, our store's white flour is 30 fiat currency a stone, and other miscellaneous grains are 20 fiat currency a stone, and there is no two prices! Other currencies are counted separately! ”

Shopkeeper Jiao's eyes were full of banter, in his opinion, this "Mr. Gao" would definitely turn around and leave as soon as he heard this price.

"Sizzle......"

Yue Siliang gasped, looking angry.

"I finally understand why Heng Ji is the biggest grain store in Lingqiu, Jiao's ability to make money is amazing! At present, the price of grain in Shanghai is only seven and a half yuan and one stone! You can make your money faster than stocks! ”

As soon as Yue Siliang's words came out, Shopkeeper Jiao knew that the other party was really an expert. Regardless of whether the "Shanghai price" said by the other party is true or false, it is by no means a "sheep". But he still said to himself.

"Shanghai is Shanghai, if we don't fight, the price will not be much different. It is not our Hengji family who raises the price of food in Quanlingqiu, if Mr. Gao is too expensive, then forget it, what I said is clear enough, there is no other price! ”

"Hahahaha......"

Yue Siliang seemed to be laughing angrily, and the sound of laughter was very loud. When he finished laughing, he suddenly stared at Shopkeeper Jiao with burning eyes.

"I agree to this price, it's still the same sentence, as much as you want! When are you going to show me the goods? ”

"What?!"
