Section 49: Rumors of the Rice Market of the Red Mansion
Everyone in the hall looked at Ni Shushui and a group of local tyrants, with different moods, what kind of people is this!
Dongmen Xue has already walked in surrounded by several pro-soldiers, dressed in white and white robes, like a hibiscus out of the water, like a demon lotus dyed in dust, when walking, deliberately twisting the body that already makes people squirt blood, indescribably bewitching.
Holding a large wooden cabinet, Monta recklessly bumped into a personal soldier next to Dongmen Xue.
"Whoa!" A pile of calligraphy and drawings fell out, and one fell to the ground and spread out. Monta hurriedly cleaned up, and Ding Hai gave Monta a roll of his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
Mainland famous painting [Kun Yuan Rainy Night]! My goodness! Although Monta's hands were fast enough, there were still many knowledgeable people in the hall who saw a famous painting worth more than 100 million gold coins, and I heard that monks often looked at this painting, which helped to have an epiphany!
Of course, there are many famous businessmen in the hall, and there are also many people who saw the scene just now, rich people! Ask what is the source, the more detailed the better!
Some people have begun to pay attention to the dogs, depending on the situation, this is not an ordinary local tyrant, it is not possible to get the nobles of the mainland family, it is estimated that he has just come to the Northern Continent, if he can climb a little relationship as soon as possible, it would be the best.
The reason why 'three thousand years' landed in the beast city is for a certain reason.
First, although the Wind and Snow Sect is in the Wind and Snow Empire, it is the closest to the Beast City, and the high-level cultivators, royal relatives and nobles, and giant families of that country in the Northern Continent come to the Wind and Snow Sect a few times a year, and the Beast City is the best transit station for three thousand years. Almost all the countries of the Northern Continent are scheduled for the '3000 years'.
Second, the beast city is said to be the territory of the Blue Horse, but in fact, the control is the Wind and Snow Empire. In this way, the Wind and Snow Empire, the mainstay of the Northern Continent, is mostly in the beast city 'three thousand years' when signing various trade, cultural, commercial, and other agreements, so that all countries also like it, and the Wind and Snow Empire also secretly has an actual control over the whole situation, and it is a good thing for both sides.
A middle-aged man who looked like a businessman walked over and hugged his fist to Ni Suishui, who was about to go upstairs, and said, "Oh! Who is this? Isn't it the Aotian everyone in Zhongdu! ”
"It should be! It is said that the young head of the Aotian family is at this age. Someone in the crowd chimed in.
Ni Shuishui didn't answer the other party, just glanced at the other party with contempt, and the meaning couldn't be clearer, you know!
was made a gray face by Ni Shuishui, and the other party was not annoyed.
Joke! The Zhongdu Aotian family, the most mysterious family in the whole continent, a sect of nine saints, is better than any country in the Northern Continent, not to mention that he is a giant with a little money, even now that the wind and snow are waiting for the west wind to be fierce in front of him, then he has to weigh it, what does he care?
After the middle-aged man was ignored by Ni Shushui, he bowed deeply again, and then got up and said, "In Xia Pei Shizhong, Zhongdu Ren's clan, I have been operating the animal skin business in Baibeast Mountain for many years, and I will rely on everyone in the broad sea to take care of it in the future!" After saying that, he bowed again.
Proud of the sea! Now one of the actual rulers of the Aotian family, obediently! It turns out that this is already the right one! Don't say it sooner! Brother Pei is not kind!
Someone in the crowd secretly scolded Pei Shizhong.
"Hmmm! Where are you from Zhongdu? When Ni Shushui heard that the other party was from Zhongdu, his attitude eased a lot.
Before the middle-aged man could talk, he saw the dog shouting at Ni Shuishui, "Grandpa! Grandfather! Look, look."
Ni Suishui looked in the direction pointed by the dog, and saw a tree-shaped ice sculpture more than 3 meters high at the entrance on the second floor, which was vivid, and under the surrounding starlight stones, it was beautiful to flash and flash.
Ni Shushui was pulled by the dog, and turned to Pei Shizhong with a helpless look.
Pei Shizhong hurriedly said: "Kuohai, everyone, please take care of yourself!" Volunteer! Another day, the little ones must come to visit! ”
Before he could answer Pei Shizhong's words, the dog dragged Ni Shushui upstairs with all his might.
Pei Shizhong reluctantly added to Ni Shuishui's back, "Little border city people! ”
At this time, Ni Shushui had been pulled by the dog to the entrance on the second floor, and Pei Shizhong could only see the old man's remaining foot.
Leaving behind the crowd of people watching the excitement, the dog led them all the way to the third floor under the leadership of the 'Three Thousand Years' store value.
The third floor, also called Wucang, is the best guest room in the '3,000 years', meaning the closest place to the sun.
Dongmen Xue lives in one room, Ni Shushui and Dog in one room, Su Ping, Ding Hai, Gu Xiaolong, and three people in one room.
Monta arranged for some of the horsemen of the pro-guard army to live on the second floor, and the rest of the pro-soldiers were arranged to live in the lower room of the 'three thousand years', that is, they were not in the 'three thousand years', but the conditions were also quite luxurious.
Everyone made proper arrangements, Ni Shushui checked his room, and after making sure that there was no listening instrument, he asked Su Ping to call everyone over and discuss what to do next?
What they have to do now, in terms of difficulty, is no worse than beating the Red Wall and destroying the Blue Masi Navy and the Imperial Capital Army.
3 billion gold coins, purchased into grain, according to the current market of the blue horse, a gold coin and a half, that is also 4.5 billion quintals of grain, a load of grain 150 catties, 675 billion catties, if you want to use a car and horse to transport, according to the largest grain cart of the blue horse, a car of 6,000 catties, that will also be 112.5 million cars, a parking space of 10 meters away, 2 million miles, not to mention that after Huang Yao, the whole continent does not know how many circles.
As early as when Ni Shushui and they left Hongshan, Jiangshan sent a secret envoy of the Treasury to quietly transport a batch of 40,000 space warehouses to Hongshan, which is a special yuan vessel of Xiaoxi Tianliang Kingdom, which is a super large storage element, don't look at the size of each one is less than the size of a fist, in fact, the space inside can store 10 million catties of grain.
Of course, the price of the space warehouse is also expensive, each of them is 10,000 gold coins, and this batch of space warehouses alone is 400 million, which shows how concerned Jiangshan is about buying grain this time.
The focus of Ni Shuishui's speech this time is to focus on the speed of purchase, according to Ni Shuishui, they have a maximum of half a month, and beyond this time, the Wind and Snow Empire may be aware of it.
Before they came, Jiang Shan of the Imperial Finance Institute gave them a detailed statement of the grain reserves of the Wind and Snow Empire and the Blue Horse Empire, and now it is estimated that the Wind and Snow Empire probably has nearly 1 trillion quintals of grain, and the Blue Horse also has more than 700 billion, if 4 to 500 billion yuan is purchased in a short period of time, and now it is close to the autumn harvest, there should be this possibility.
To raise so much grain in such a short period of time, the only way is to increase the price, the eternal iron law of value, if a load of grain and a gold coin, Ni Shushui dares to protect it, even if he can't collect so much grain, it will be unless the Wind and Snow Empire is gone.
But how to go up next? Everyone said different plans, and finally it was agreed, and everyone dispersed to rest.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day the dog took Ding Hai, Gu Xiaolong, and Su Ping to the auction hall to wander around.
Su Ping roughly estimated that the so-called large orders are mostly futures, and most of the grain trading quotas now range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of quintals, which is a drop in the bucket compared to their more than 4 billion this time.
is saying that they are not ready to buy grain in the agreed hall, in that case, not to mention whether they can buy 4 billion quintals, I am afraid that as soon as the wind is released, the Wind and Snow Empire will be the first to target them.
One morning, Su Ping basically figured out the grain reserves of the entire beast city.
The entire beast city now has only 6 million quintals of grain storage, which means that if you want to take away 4 billion quintals of grain, you must transfer it from the Blue Horse and other grain storage areas of the Wind and Snow Empire, and calculate it back and forth in 15 days according to the speed of grain transportation, even if there is a space warehouse, it can only cover a radius of 3,000 miles.
Ni Shushui received Su Ping's inquiry at noon that day, and he seemed to have brought back a secret letter from his own soldiers, and immediately informed Dongmen Xue not to touch a grain of rice in the beast city without permission.
In a city with a population of 2 million, the flow of rice is only 6 million quintals of rice! Once they start stockpiling food, soon people will starve to death, and then the price will rise, and what will they be left with? Then it goes without saying.
In the afternoon, the dog was in a small rice market, taking Ding Hai, Gu Xiaolong, Monta, and a group to wander leisurely.
These small rice markets are specially set up for ordinary people, and the transaction is retail, and the amount is only 10 catties and 8 catties at a time. If you want to touch a large household, you will die a few hundred catties.
The dog walked to a rice shop, which is a store specializing in selling snow rice from the Blue Horse Hundred Beast Mountain, and the dog looked at the crystal clear snow rice, and looked like he couldn't put it down.
"Get out of the way! What kind of foolishness is the child coming here! A short and fat man pushed the dog away and squeezed it in, with a very arrogant attitude.
Ding Hai walked over with an arrow step, trying to grab the opponent's hand, but the opponent dodged, dodged Ding Hai's pounce, and punched Ding Hai's face.
Ding Hai is usually stupid, but if he really fights, he is not ambiguous at all, a cat's waist dodges the opponent's fist style, and before he can make his next move, he sees a dog grabbing the opponent's front chest with a 'broken flower'.
"Sting! Flutter! The fragments of the clothes flew towards the face of the short and fat man with a strong wind.
Being caught by the dog so coldly, the short and fat man was really uncomfortable, and before he could breathe, he saw a cloud of clothes flying towards the door in front of him, and instinctively blocked it with his hand.
The dog didn't give each other any respite, almost after using the 'broken flower', followed by a piercing sky. Just listen to "Bang! "The sound of broken bones.
Before the short and fat man could figure out what was going on with the child, who was not yet his navel, the man had already flown out and hit the wall of another shop on the street.
A fight measured in seconds ended like this, so that the people around who just wanted to see the excitement couldn't believe it.
Others don't know, they know very well, that short and fat man is a famous scoundrel in this rice market, named Gray Si, I don't know where he is, he has a good hand all day long, how many years, relying on his own martial arts realm Great Perfection cultivation in the rice market is rampant.
Now that he was beaten away by a child so lightly, who do you say believes it?
The short and fat man is also a knowledgeable master, knowing that today he kicked the iron plate, turned over, did not ink, looked at the dog, and ran away from the crowd!
A hint of surprise flashed in the corners of Gu Xiaolong, Monta, Ding Hai, and the corners of their eyes on the side, and then they immediately returned to normal, and took the dog's performance just now as a matter of course.
Boy! He is now the young owner of the Aotian family!
The dog whispered to the shopkeeper, who was still a little stunned, "These! I'm going to do it all! Who is still robbing me! Who still 、、、"
The shopkeeper of the snow rice shop looked at the dog, this is also a child, although he is well dressed, but the snow rice of this family is also worth some money, and the child's words may not be credible.
Ding Hai saw that the store didn't react much when he heard the dog's words, and said a little angrily, "Did you hear it, it's all good!" I want you to nag! ”
Before the store could react, Monta began to put the goods together, and the store hurriedly stopped Monta.
Monta was stopped by the other party, her eyes were like two light bulbs, and she asked the shopkeeper, "What! You don't sell it (yet)? ”
"Ahem, no, ahem," the shopkeeper gestured with a gesture of money.
"Smack!" A pile of golden tickets was thrown onto the table by the dog.
When the shopkeeper saw the golden ticket, he knew that today was a dream of a good dream, and his attitude suddenly became kind, and let go of Monta, which means that one moves with you, and the more you move, the better! But he didn't dare to move the golden ticket, estimating that his little snow rice could be worth the other party's one, let alone a bunch, how much should this pile be!
After handing over to the shopkeeper, the dog hired two carriages and drove them towards the 'Three Thousand Years'.
On the way, the people in the rice market, people kept introducing their rice, and the dogs only had five words: 'I want it tomorrow'.
At this time, a news came out of nowhere, saying that it was the young owner of the Aotian family in Zhongdu who bought rice just now, because the Aotian family opened the most famous winery in the whole continent - Lingdu, and needed a large amount of grain.
Zhang Er, after seeing the scene of the dog just now and the discussion all over the street, coupled with his own tracking for a day, has preliminarily concluded that the old man is right, the Aotian family is here to collect rice.
Wang Ting, basically the same situation as Zhang Er, is also here to inquire about the Aotian family, the purpose of suddenly appearing in the beast city this time, Wang Ting is not a loss is the famous bag of the beast city to inquire, it is worth saying that he got a few more useful news, the Aotian young owner likes to eat the sugar gourd of the beast city, this caravan is called the Red Mansion.
It's almost dark, the people in the rice market are also beginning to close, today the story of the snow rice shop is still chewed in people's mouths and said, there are naturally not a few people like Wang Ting and Zhang Er on the street, the story is fermenting in people's subjective will, after all, who doesn't want to buy old grain when the autumn harvest comes! Humans are actually very kind.
