It took Sun Quan three days to break his mouth and persuade the two to stay, and then he immediately reported to the General's Mansion and arranged the positions of Huang Zhong and Zhang Zhongjing.

After settling the two, Sun Quan was in a good mood.

In fact, he knew in his heart that since Huang Zhong and Zhang Zhongjing were willing to step into Jiangdong from Jingzhou, they were not only here to see, but also had a good impression and expectations for Jiangdong in their hearts.

Sun Quan, as Sun Jian's second son and the high-ranking and powerful son of Jiangdong, can personally receive them with a bottom-up posture and an attitude of attention, and the last trace of dissatisfaction in their hearts is gone, and it becomes logical to stay in Jiangdong.

Huang Zhong is a military general, naturally joined the army, with the military position of a captain, assisted the main general He Qi, and pacified the Shanyue of Danyang, in fact, with Huang Zhong's ability, even a general can bear it, the reason why it is a small captain, it is because Huang Zhong has no military merits in Jiangdong after all, and today's Jiangdong Army is no longer two or three small meows in the past, with strict military regulations, and if you want to be in the army, military merit is indispensable.

And Zhang Zhongjing, Sun Quan didn't have so much consideration, it was very direct, in order to retain this later generation of medical saints, he invested a lot of money, stepped into the sky, and received it in the position of the Tai Hospital Order under the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion.

This was originally Yu Hao's position, but in Jiangdong, Sun Quan had the courage to directly reach out and ask Sun Jian for this important position.

――――――――――――――――

At the end of June, the battles between Jiaozhou and Chaisang were still deadlocked, and many battle reports were returned one after another, but no decisive battle reports appeared, but the county towns of Danyang County began to uncover a civil war without gunpowder.

This battle was hailed in later history books as the opening battle of the economic war.

Beginning in mid-June, for several days in a row, the grain in Danyang City was purchased by the people, and the price began to rise continuously, from more than 300 yuan per stone to nearly 450 yuan.

Even the worst corn has raised the price from 200 yuan per stone to more than 280 yuan per stone, and the price of grain in Danyang City is completely chaotic.

"Zizhong, how much grain is still on the market in Danyang County today?"

Sun Quan came to the mansion of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, looking at the accounts submitted from all sides, the Arabic numerals named after Sun Quan appeared, and the account books became much clearer and clear at a glance.

"Childe, in addition to the grain in the hands of Haoqiang in various places, most of them have been controlled by the merchants of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, whether it is high-quality rice, or millet rice, corn, or wheat, the market in Danyang has begun to run out, so Haoqiang around the country has begun to raise prices!"

Mi Zhu's eyes flashed with excitement, he never knew that money could still be played like this, and the plan that Sun Quan said made him feel his blood boiling.

"Did our purchase of grain cause a reaction from these local tycoons?" Sun Quan didn't dare to underestimate these powerful classes, Danyang is so big, there must be talents.

"Not yet!"

A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Mi Zhu's mouth, and said, "They should understand that it is the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce that is buying grain, but they still don't know our purpose." ”

"How much food are we stockpiling now?" Sun Quan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the cold light flickered.

"Okay, almost, it all adds up to nearly 40,000 stones!"

Mi Zhu lowered his head, calculated, and reported half-loudly: "Come back for three days, Huiji, the 10,000 stone grain purchased by Wu County will also arrive, and we will control 50,000 grains in our hands at that time." ”

"This amount is enough to collapse the grain market in Danyang, and we have enough chips to start a war, starting tomorrow, all localities will stop buying grain and start selling, the price will be set at four hundred yuan a stone, and then it will decline day by day!"

Sun Quan squinted his small amber eyes, his gaze was awe-inspiring, and he gave the order.

"No!"

Mi Zhu nodded and began to send people to Danyang counties to deliver the orders of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.

Danyang Zhisuo, Yuanling, the grain giant Hong family, the head of the house is Hong Mo, in his early fifties, his face is a little ugly, a pair of small eyes flashing and flashing, shrewd as a fox.

"Father, there's a letter from the Chamber of Commerce!" At this time, a young man walked in and respectfully handed over a letter.

"Okay, let's start, immediately pass the order, starting tomorrow, all the grain under the Hongjia grain store will start to sell grain at a reduced price."

Hong Mo looked at the letter, and immediately summoned all the deacons of the Hong family, his face looked a little hideous, and he shouted.

"Father, why is the price reduced?" Everyone was a little puzzled, and the young man couldn't figure it out, he looked at his father and asked, "In this way, we are at a loss, and now there is such a shortage of food in the market, even if we don't bargain, we can sell it." ”

"Don't ask, do it!" Hong Mo had already gambled on the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce of the Hong family, and when he joined the Chamber of Commerce, it was for a breath, even in the face of the suppression of Yuanling Haoqiang, he did not retreat, he had already begun to do his best.

"No!"

As soon as the people below saw that the head of the Hong family was so determined, they began to sell the Hong family's grain.

Food, a survival resource that can never be missing, when the price rises, it will naturally make the people everywhere resentful, but when the price drops, it can make people crazy.

With the Hongjia price reduction and grain selling, Yuanling grain merchants also began to sell grain at a reduced price, Shicheng, Danyang, Jurong, Wuhu, and Hushu ...... Merchants in the prosperous areas of Danyang County also began to sell grain gradually, and once the price was reduced, it naturally caused agitation and the arrival of customers.

The price is a stark contrast, the same thing, the fool also knows to buy the cheaper, not choose the most expensive to buy, the grain stores opened by the powerful everywhere pù began to do bleak business

The continuous price reduction began to trigger a storm of grain price reduction in the entire Danyang County, starting from four hundred yuan with one stone, three hundred and ninety, three hundred and eighty......

At this time, the powerful class in Danyang began to smell a trace of uneasiness, and some shrewd people did not want the price to fall, so they learned to bid for the purchase and forcibly hold the price in the market.

"Close!"

"Go and take those merchants' grain, since they sold it at a low price, we will take it back at a low price!"

"The price can't go down!"

Danyang Haoqiang family's trust market, so that the entire Danyang grain price war began to open the curtain, between throwing and receiving, the price tug-of-war, still continue to fall, only ten days, has fallen from 400 yuan to more than 350 yuan.

At this time, Jiangdong began to enter the July season, in the markets of Danyang, the price war of grain was in full swing, and more than a dozen Danyang merchants mainly in Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce continued to sell the grain in their hands to suppress the market price as much as possible.

However, Haoqiang also has a lot of assets in his hands, and he joined forces to buy the grain of the Chamber of Commerce, and forcibly supported the price to prevent it from falling.

"Childe, it's not good, the Li family, the first local powerhouse in Yuanling, made a move, united with the powerful from all over the country, and began to buy the grain in our hands with a large hand, and now the market price has been dragged down, and the stable dìng is three hundred and fifty yuan!" Moling, Mi Zhu's face was a little gloomy, and he hurriedly reported to Sun Quan.

"How much grain do we still have in the hands of the merchants of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce?" Sun Quan didn't expect that there would be a capable person, he squinted his eyes and asked questions.

"The grain sold is only more than 10,000 points, and now we still have about 40,000 stone of grain in our hands!" Mi Zhuyu reported.

"Who has the most control at the moment?"

"Danyang Zhisuo Yuanling City grain giant, the Hong family, the Hong family worked hardest when it was acquired, and now there should be tens of thousands of stones of grain in their hands!"

"Well, if they want to hold down the market price like this, we'll scare them!"

Sun Quan's eyes showed murderous anger, his fists clenched, and he said coldly: "You let the Hong family directly throw out all the grain in their hands, with good rice for 300 yuan and 15 yuan for corn, and smash them to death for me, I will see which one dares to smash such a large amount of grain at home." ”

"Understood!" Mi Zhu's eyes lit up.

Yuanling, as the city of Danyang, is also the central city of this grain price war, the price of grain in several markets has been chaotic, there are goods with high prices and no one buys, some want to buy, and the price has been pressed down There is no goods.
