In the city of Ningbo, Xie Sicun's command is determined, and the Xie family is purchasing grain in an orderly manner.

Although the time was pressing, Xie Sicun did not dare to buy on a large scale, because he was worried that this would cause local grain merchants in Ningbo to sit on the land and raise prices, hoard Juqi, or even maliciously not sell. That would be counterproductive.

Xie Sicun brought 200,000 taels of silver, which is already almost all the Xie family's liquidity, and it is not enough to buy its 200,000 stone of grain, if Cheng Zhong's trip to the Cao Gang is fruitless, the grain that Xie Sicun is buying now is the Xie family's last hole card.

"Miss-" Deng Dacheng walked in quickly, he had participated in the Xie family's grain business, and this time he was also brought over by Xie Sicun.

He originally had news to report to Xie Sicun, but after entering the door, Xie Sicun had his back to the door, looking at the ancestors of the Xie family in a daze, so he didn't dare to interrupt.

This is the Xie family's house in Ningbo, and it is also the place where the Xie family is prosperous, although the Xie family has moved to Huating, but the house in Ningbo has been kept, and Xie Mengting has to come to live for a few days every year.

"Steward Deng, what's the matter?" Xie Sicun asked without replying.

"Miss, food prices are starting to rise." Deng Dacheng said.

Xie Sicun turned around suddenly.

"When did it happen? How much has it risen? Have the grain prices of Hengyuan, Liangsheng, Fufeng, and Yuankang risen? Xie Sicun asked.

It is normal for food prices to fluctuate, but at this sensitive and critical time, Xie Sicun does not dare to be sloppy in the slightest. The four grain numbers in her mouth are the largest grain numbers in Ningbo City, controlling more than 70 percent of the grain business in Ningbo City, and if their grain prices do not rise, then the grain prices will at least be stable.

But what to be afraid of. Deng Dacheng said in annoyance: "It's up, it's all up." "

Xie Sicun turned around and looked at the ancestral statue hanging in the middle hall, feeling bitter in his heart. Although she had already thought that such a large number of acquisitions would definitely cause fluctuations in the Ningbo grain market, and even a rapid rise in prices. But Xie Sicun still hoped that this time would be longer, and it would rise again after she had purchased 200,000 stone of grain.

But the bosses of these grain numbers are all veterans who have been in the business for many years, how can they be so dull?

It's just that their reaction was too fast, at least Xie Sicun didn't expect it now.

"Is the Xie family going to fall because of this?" Xie Sicun prayed secretly.

Xie Mengting's whereabouts are unknown. Xie Jiangbo sat in Huating to buy grain, while Cheng Zhong went to the Cao Gang, and now no one can help him, and no one can even discuss.

"How much has it gone up?" Xie Sicun asked calmly.

"Early this morning, a stone of grain and rice is still eight dollars of silver, but now it is one or two silver and one stone, and the price of grain will go up one by one." Steward Deng said.

Xie Sicun stumbled, and only now did she buy less than 50,000 stone of grain and rice, and at this rate, I am afraid that the silver she brought will not be able to buy much grain at all.

"What should I do?" Xie Sicun hesitated in his heart.

At this moment, there was a cacophony outside the gate.

"Let me in, I want to see your young lady." A voice said.

"I'm sorry, my young lady is far away in Huating, please go back." Menzi said in a blockade.

In order not to attract the attention of local grain merchants, Xie Sicun deliberately hid his whereabouts so as not to be noticed by the other party.

For those who want to find a young lady, of course, Menzi has to block it.

"I'm from Huating, I'm Cheng Zhong, you go and tell your young lady that I have something urgent to see her." Cheng Zhong said impatiently. He came here all the way from Huating County, and he didn't even have time to drink water on the road, this big day, the weather was hot, he had already had a dry mouth, and now he was stopped by the door to bask in the sun, which was a living sin.

Cheng Zhong unbuttoned his collar and stirred his hands helplessly, he felt that he was about to suffer from heat stroke.

"Delaying Miss's big event, do you suffer from sin?" Cheng Zhong said threateningly.

Hearing this voice, Xie Sicun was overjoyed in his heart, and came to the gate in three steps and two steps.

"Open the door, open the door." Xie Sicun hurriedly said.

Soon the door opened, and Xie Sicun saw Cheng Zhong in a hurry! At this time, Xie Sicun felt that Cheng Zhong's not handsome face was the cutest in the world.

She looked behind Cheng Zhong expectantly, but was disappointed to see that there was nothing behind him. It seems that Cheng Zhong didn't bring food, so doesn't that mean that he failed to ask for help from the Cao Gang?

Xie Sicun's heart was cold, although the sun above his head was shining, but Xie Sicun was as cold as falling into an ice cave.

"Miss Xie, how is the grain harvest? Whether you survive this disaster or not is up to you. Cheng Zhong said helplessly: "Although Huating has grain, but it can't be transported, far water can't quench the thirst of the near, if we can't receive enough food, we will be finished." "

Perhaps because of the panic, Cheng Zhong's voice was very loud.

Xie Sicun frowned secretly, this Cheng Zhong is so calm on weekdays, what's wrong today? Nothing too big should be shouted at the gate. You must know that at this time, the Xie Mansion must be full of the eyes of Ningbo grain merchants, Cheng Zhong is like leaking his bottom by doing this, and the Xie family will no longer be able to bluff, and they will completely lose control of food prices.

"Cheng Gongzi has something to say, let's go into the house." Xie Sicun stopped Cheng Zhong from continuing.

Cheng Zhong also seemed to realize his behavior Meng Lang, so he quickly shut up and followed Xie Sicun into the courtyard.

"How? What news can you find out? Zhao Hengyuan, the owner of Hengyuan Firm, asked the guy who had just returned from hearing the news from Xie Zhai.

Hengyuan is the largest grain and rice firm in Ningbo. Zhao Hengyuan is also a legend. He is not yet forty years old this year, his family was poor since he was a child, and he entered the grain number as an apprentice in his teens.

Although there is an unscrupulous and black-bellied side in this process, Zhao Hengyuan's keen sense of smell and extraordinary courage are also fully revealed.

This time, it was he who was the first to notice the Xie family's thirst for food, and also guessed that something was wrong with the Xie family. Although he didn't know about the looting of the Xie family's military rations, he still saw it as an excellent opportunity to make money.

"What the owner said is not wrong at all, the Xie family is really here, it is the eldest lady of the Xie family." The guy will report the situation obtained by squatting outside the Xie family.

The mouth of the subordinate in the Xie Mansion was very tight, he couldn't find out anything at all, if it wasn't for the young man who came today, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to find out any news.

"The eldest lady of the Xie family is here in person, it seems that the Xie family is definitely going to make a big move." Zhao Hengyuan touched his smooth chin and groaned.

"What else have you heard?" Zhao Hengyuan asked again.

"There is nothing else, but the Xie family should have encountered a big event and needed a lot of food, and the specific matter is not clear to the villain." The guy said. Cheng Zhong didn't say anything about what happened outside the Xie Mansion, so the guy could only guess.

"Need a lot of food?" A sinister smile appeared on Zhao Hengyuan's face. Xie Mengting, Xie Mengting, today is the time to trample you to the ground, even if you can't completely knock you down, it will hurt your vitality.

The guy knows Zhao Hengyuan, as long as he shows such a look, then someone will definitely be unlucky. He couldn't help but feel sad for the Xie family.

"You immediately send someone to invite Boss Liu of Liangsheng, Boss 6 of Fufeng, and Boss Ma of Yuankang to come to the house to discuss matters, and say that I have great wealth to give to them." Zhao Hengyuan said. He knew very well that it would be difficult to snipe at the Xie family with his own strength, and in the current situation, he had to unite with other businesses to deal with the Xie family.

"Cheng Gongzi, is the Cao Gang still unwilling to help my Xie family?" Xie Sicun asked bitterly.

Although she knew the result, there was still a hint of hope in Xie Sicun's eyes, she hoped that she was wrong, hoped that what Cheng Zhong said before was just a joke, and hoped that the Cao Gang could help the Xie family get through the difficulties regardless of the previous suspicions for the sake of the gift she sent and Cheng Zhong's life-saving grace.

Facing Xie Sicun's eyes, Cheng Zhong suddenly felt that he was cruel.

How do you sue her?
