Chapter 50: Price Reduction
Looking at the unconscious shopkeeper Su on the ground, Li Yuan turned around, and at the gate of the West Ya, the squires standing in the crowd were staring at Li Yuan, and they also knew that this time they were indeed underestimating Xiao Mo. 【&n】
The current situation, of course, they also know that Li Yuan is worried in his heart, how could these squires not think of it?
The crux of the problem is still Xiao Mo, fortunately, now both sides have not torn their faces, and there is still room for discussion, so among the squires, some who think far ahead, shook their heads at Li Yuan and signaled him not to fall out with Xiao Mo again.
After agreeing to this, Li Yuan finally chose to compromise in his heart: "My lord, can you take a step to speak?" ”
Xiao Mo stood up with a smile, slapped the startled wood and shouted, "Yan catches the head!" ”
Yan Eighteen pinned a long sword to his waist, hugged his fist to Xiao Mo and said, "Here!" ”
Xiao Mo pointed to the shopkeeper Su, and then pointed to the crowd at the door, and explained to Yan Zhutou: "This case is suppressed for the time being, but some things have not been clarified, so the people in the county government can't leave, and they are ordered to go down and close the gate of the county government, and no one is allowed to go out without the permission of the official!" ”
"Off...... Close the door? Yan Eighteen was dumbfounded, he didn't know what Xiao Mo was going to do, but he didn't ask, and after receiving the order, he asked the catchers to close the door.
Xiao Mo said to Li Yuan at this time: "Outside Li Yuan, as well as the squires outside, come with this official!" ”
Li Yuan asked, "Everyone goes?" ”
Xiao Mo turned around and threw a sentence: "What you say alone, can it count?" ”
Li Yuan thought about it, and finally beckoned the squires and followed Xiao Mo to the Xiya Mansion together.
Xiao Mo took a chair and sat down, after everyone sat down, Xiao Mo glanced at it, there were eight in total, in addition to Li Yuan, there were seven middle-aged people with rich physique, Xiao Mo had a calm face and did not speak, squires, you look at me, I look at you, the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
After all, Xiao Mo's face is not very good now, and these squires are afraid of Xiao Mo, who is stunned, horizontal and stunned, and he doesn't want to die, who is not afraid of such a person?
Xiao Mo's image of these squires today is like this, originally his own group, with the people, grabbed Wang Ergou, was ready to come to the yamen to force Xiao Mo to hand over the grain, there was no food in the yamen, of course Xiao Mo couldn't hand it over, and then he and his people would discuss the matter of selling grain to the yamen at the right time, so that they could make some fuss about the price.
Even the squires have planned it, if Xiao Mo changes his temper like he did last time in the Li Mansion and takes the initiative to cooperate, they can also give Xiao Mo some benefits.
But now, Xiao Mo shocked them in turn, and the silver ticket that was originally in his pocket couldn't be used, after knowing Xiao Mo's temper, who would dare to give Xiao Mo benefits now?
In desperation, the squires had no choice but to look at Li Yuan, who called this grain hoarding, he was the mastermind?
Li Yuan had no choice but to stand up and salute Xiao Mo and shouted, "My lord! Then he introduced it to Xiao Mo: "This is Zhao Yuanwai, Lin Yuanwai, these two are surnamed Zhou, and there are three, surnamed Qian, and the three Qian Yuanwai are also brothers of the same mother!" ”
"Oh?" Xiao Mo sneered: "No wonder, it turns out that they are all raccoon dogs!" ”
Hearing Xiao Mo's unkind words, Li Yuan's face twitched, and the others also looked at Xiao Mo embarrassedly, of course, they had to force a smile on their faces, but they laughed very ugly!
Xiao Mo spoke again: "What is the most hated thing in my life, do you know?" ”
Everyone shook their heads, and then looked at Xiao Mo.
"The ...... I hate the most" Xiao Mo pointed to it, and then said, "It's this 'God'!" ”
When everyone heard this, they were all puzzled, and they didn't know why Xiao Mo hated God and why he wanted to tell them.
Xiao Mo continued: "Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs, which can easily harm the world. The most important thing is that the flood is surging, and the thunder and fire fall from the sky, causing the people to be miserable, so I hate God the most! ”
Hearing Xiao Mo's words, all the squires laughed twice, and Li Yuan said: "My lord is right, but there are also ...... where the wind and rain are smooth."
"Not bad!" Xiao Mo also agreed with Li Yuan's words: "For example, Suzhou and Hangzhou, the granary of the country, and the land of wealth, have always been smooth and rainy, do you know why? ”
But Xiao Mo's next sentence made Li Yuan speechless: "That's because there are no moths like you in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and when you are in danger, you don't want to help the county to survive the drought, but you also hoard food in order to make huge profits, don't you know that there are gods in your head?" ”
Xiao Mo said excitedly, his eyes widened like bells, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Today, this official wants to see if you black-hearted people have anything to say, if you still don't repent, then it's easy to do, this official will fight for his life, it's a big deal to break the net with you!" ”
Hearing this, the squire's heart was 'groaning', so dangerous, fortunately we stopped in time and didn't continue to mess with this guy, this guy is really a bad guy!
The squires glanced at each other, and they all saw the fear and bitterness in their eyes.
What is this? Stealing chickens doesn't make a handful of rice? No, that's not a handful of rice!
Thinking of the food in the hands of his people, Li Yuan shook his head, pulled himself out of his bitterness and fear, and said to Xiao Mo: "My lord, you ...... You are mistaken! ”
"Huh?" Xiao Mo looked surprised, looked at Li Yuandao, and said, "When did this official misunderstand?" ”
"Now!" Li Yuanqiang pretended to be calm: "Your Excellency may not know that when we came to find your adult today, how we sold all the discussed grain in our hands to the county!" ”
"Oh?" Xiao Molang said: "Tell me, how do you sell it?" ”
Li Yuan was about to speak, but Xiao Mo suddenly stretched out his hand to signal him to stop, and after interrupting Li Yuan's words, Xiao Mo shouted: "Yan catches the head!" ”
Yan Eighteen's voice came from the door: "Here!" ”
Xiao Mo said: "Lao Fuyan catches the head and guards the door with the catcher. ”
Yan Eighteen nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
Xiao Mo then motioned for Li Yuan to continue, Li Yuan looked at those squires and gritted his teeth: "My lord, this time our grain, a total of 40,000 stones, is going to be sold to the county government at half price, I don't know what the adults think?" ”
"Half price?" Xiao Mo pointed at Li Yuan, and then glanced at the squires: "Are you all willing?" The squires nodded, but they were shouting in their hearts, unwillingly! But what if you don't want to? Really fight to the death with Xiao Mo?
Forget it, now Shen County is people's territory, not to mention the soldiers and horses of the City Supervision Division, it is the people outside, Xiao Mo shouted, I am afraid that these people will not even have a place to run.
Seeing that everyone nodded, Xiao Mo was secretly happy in his heart, but asked on his lips: "Tell me clearly, what is the price of half price, if this official is not mistaken, when you opened the warehouse yesterday, the price of grain was set at six taels and one stone!" ”
Li Yuan hurriedly apologized to Xiao Mo and said: "My lord, it was the people who were messing around, after we knew about it, we immediately ordered them to change it, and it was still the original price, five taels of silver and one stone!" ”
"Oh, that means that the 40,000 stone of grain you sold to the government is at the price of 2251 stone?" Xiao Mo said expressionlessly.
Li Yuan and those squires couldn't figure out what Xiao Mo meant, and when they heard Xiao Mo's words, they all fell silent, not daring to speak! No way, no one wants to be caught by Xiao Mo with the opportunity to go crazy, and finally gritted his teeth, one of the three people surnamed Qian said to Xiao Mo: "My lord, let's drop some more, how about two two and one stone?" ”
As soon as Qian Yuan finished speaking, Li Yuan's heart hurt a little, his grandmother's, this guy said a word, we lost 20,000 taels of silver!
When Li Yuan and the others were still in pain, Xiao Mo spoke: "No, let me tell you, I want all your food, but now the yamen can only give you 40,000 taels of silver, you just say it, sell it or not?" ”
Hearing Xiao Mo's words, the squires were dumbfounded, and they were fixed there one by one!
