95. Preparation
"You are worthy to be called my mother." Liu Yue looked at Li Xue with a smile, and said mockingly, "Why didn't you say that you were my mother when you were in the mansion just now, and now that you have been kicked out and have nowhere to go, you want to rely on me, sue you, no, stay and go." After speaking, Liu Yue pushed Li Xue away and walked south.
After hearing this, Li Xue trembled angrily, pounced on Liu Yue, grabbed her arm and said, "Liu Yue, you hurt me like this and want to leave, I sue you for no way, the old lady will not end well, I will make you all unhappy." ”
Liu Yue struggled for a long time and couldn't pull his arm out, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "What else do you want, if you hadn't stolen people in the first place, would my father have kicked you out?" ”
Li Xue tugged at the corners of her mouth and said disapprerovingly, "Then I don't care, anyway, I don't have a place to go now, you can find a way, otherwise I will follow you there." ”
Liu Yue tried his best to ask Li Xue, and finally stomped his feet and could only leave with Li Xue and the two of them.
In the inn, Leng Qiuling was about to say goodbye to the Li family brothers and sisters and leave, when he ran into the shopkeeper of the Liu family's rice shop, he squinted and smiled, and said politely, "Miss Leng, this rice is ready, you see when we will deliver it." ”
Zhihua patted his head and said in Leng Qiuling's ear, "Miss, we don't want this rice, otherwise how can we take it away, there are dozens of cars." ”
Leng Qiuling glanced at the shopkeeper Wang quietly and did not answer, whether to buy that rice or not has no effect on her at all, and the Liu family should also know her intentions, it seems that someone is not used to seeing herself meddling in this matter, so she wants to give her a warning.
Seeing that Leng Qiuling didn't answer for a long time, the shopkeeper Wang was also a little unhappy in his heart, and his face sank and said, "Miss Leng doesn't have money, and my Liu family is not afraid that these rice can't be sold, but I'm afraid that Miss's approach is not very good." ”
"Shut up, what does my young lady do, it's not your turn to point fingers here......"
"Knowing the painting." Leng Qiuling glanced at Zhihua unhappily, and then turned back to the shopkeeper Wang and said, "Don't worry, the shopkeeper, although I, Leng Qiuling, am a woman, but what I said still counts, you just send your rice over, and I will naturally give you a lot of silver." ”
Shopkeeper Wang's face stiffened, and then he said naturally, "Miss Leng said this, then I will rest assured, I will let people send the rice." ”
Leng Qiuling nodded expressionlessly, and after watching the shopkeeper Wang leave, Zhihua's voice sounded in his ears again, "Miss, you really plan to buy so much rice, then how can we leave, I knew that I would have found another way to approach the Liu family, but now I have to lift a stone and hit myself in the foot." ”
Leng Qiuling shook her head, looked out the window and said, "Zhihua, haven't you seen it yet?" This matter of the Liu family is completely deliberate, we have lost their face, people must find it back, otherwise how to get this breath. ”
"No......." After Zhihua sighed, he could only acquiesce to this fact, but he kept thinking about the Liu family's careful eyes in his heart.
Zhihua's expression directly amused Leng Qiuling, she hooked the corners of her lips and said, "Zhihua, you go down to find the shopkeeper to open another guest room, and when the Liu family sends the rice over, you will put it there first." ”
"Got it, miss." Zhihua took two steps back and walked out, closing the door from the outside.
After Zhihua left, Leng Qiuling thought calmly in the house alone, it is definitely unrealistic to rush with these rice, if it is too troublesome to let the Li family brothers and sisters take it in the capital, it seems that the last way is to reduce the price and sell it.
Anyway, let's just spend money to eliminate the disaster, Leng Qiuling shook her head, in the future, I should do less of this strong thing.
After sitting for a while, Leng Qiuling got up from the stool and looked out the window, the speed of this Wang shopkeeper is really unusual, and it has only taken long for people to send rice over.
Leng Qiuling looked at the carriages coming not far away, took out the prepared silver from the purse and walked down, the Li family brothers and sisters also followed to the door of the inn when they heard the movement, looking at the bags of rice, Li Wei was surprised, "Miss Leng, what's going on." ”
Zhihua pursed his lips and said unhappily, "It's not because I want to help you that Miss bought so much useless rice." ”
Cao'er thought for a while and then figured it out, lowered her head and said embarrassedly, "Sister Leng is all our fault for spending so much silver." After a pause, Cao'er said again, "Then what should I do now, Sister Leng can't take so much rice on the road." ”
Li Wei and Dacao also showed a touch of shame, but they couldn't help with the things in front of them at all, so they could only stay on the sidelines and do things in a hurry.
For some reason, the shopkeeper of the delivery king did not come in person this time, not only that, but even the people of the Liu family did not show up, only sent a small steward to follow behind, and after ordering the goods, Leng Qiuling happily paid off all the silver, but when he looked back at the room of rice, his brows furrowed again.
Leng Qiuling touched the storage ring on his hand, although there was some space in it, it was a little unrealistic to put all this rice in, thinking that Leng Qiuling collected dozens of bags of rice with a few people on his back, and then said, "Li Wei, you go out to inquire, what is the price of rice recently, and when we come back, we will reduce the price by one-tenth of the price and sell all of these." ”
found a solution, Li Wei happily ran out to inquire about the price, and Dacao and Cao'er also helped to put the rice in a pile.
Zhihua and a few people were busy all afternoon, just about to take a break, there was a knock on the door when they suddenly heard outside, Zhihua opened the door and found that there was the shopkeeper of the inn standing outside, and walked in with a smile and said, "I heard that Miss Leng plans to reduce the price of these rice, and I don't know how much profit I can make." ”
Leng Qiuling patted the soil on her hands, walked over and said with a cold face, "I don't know where the shopkeeper inquired about the news, but I bought these rice with great difficulty, and I never planned to reduce the price." In the last sentence, Leng Qiuling deliberately raised her voice, her plan was known, Leng Qiuling was also a little unhappy in her heart, although she was in a hurry to deal with the rice, she never planned to be led by the nose.
The shopkeeper was not angry, and still said with a smile, "Miss Leng, why do we have to be like this, we don't say secret words, you want to make a move, I want to buy, there is no conflict between this, is it?" ”
"Sister Leng, I think the shopkeeper is also a good person, otherwise we will sell it to him." Cao'er suddenly interjected in the middle.
A touch of excitement appeared on the shopkeeper's face, and then he pretended to be calm and said, "This girl is right, the old man has opened an inn in Dongyang Town for more than 20 years, and he has never done anything against his conscience, Miss Leng can rest assured." ”
Leng Qiuling glanced at the shopkeeper suspiciously, although the inn also sells food, but there is no need to buy so much rice at one time, is there something she doesn't know about here, thinking of this, Leng Qiuling is not in a hurry to sell this batch of rice, and said with a smile, "If the shopkeeper is interested, let's talk about it in a few days, this goods have just been delivered, I have to take care of it before I can do business." ”
It will be too late in a few days, the shopkeeper is anxious but can't say it, he also just got the news, I'm afraid the Liu family will regret it at this time, if he doesn't buy this batch of rice earlier, I'm afraid he won't even be able to grab the soup at that time, "Miss Leng, I know it's not easy for you to buy these rice, and the old man doesn't take advantage of you, how about I give you an extra five hundred taels of silver at the price you originally bought, I have prepared the silver ticket, if it's okay, we can trade it now." ”
Leng Qiuling's doubts in her heart became deeper and deeper, she originally thought that the shopkeeper was sent by the Liu family to buy the rice back at the original price, after all, I am afraid that the Liu family has no stock at all when it sells so much rice at one time, but now it seems that things are not like this, could it be ......, "The shopkeeper should please go back, I still say the same sentence, I intend to talk about it in a few days, and now we still have something, Zhihua, help send the shopkeeper out." ”
Leng Qiuling smiled and stopped talking after saying this, and the shopkeeper could only sigh and walk out when he saw that things were like this, no matter what, he didn't have the life to make money, so why force it.
"If there is any news from the shopkeeper, you might as well tell it, maybe we can cooperate." Leng Qiuling saw that the shopkeeper turned around and left, but she agreed with this person's character, and she was impatient to inquire about the news by herself, after all, it was not very convenient for her to do anything as an outsider.
The shopkeeper's face was happy, he turned around and strode over and said excitedly, "Miss Leng is serious about this." ”
"Of course." Leng Qiuling nodded and said, "I think the news of the shopkeeper should be related to this batch of rice, there must be someone who needs ...... urgently."
The shopkeeper glanced at Leng Qiuling and said in surprise, "Miss Leng is really smart, that's right, the news from the old man is indeed related to this batch of rice, and it's not just me, but the people in Dongyang Town who have a little connections probably know it, so the old man will be in a hurry to buy this batch of rice, otherwise after waiting for a while, this opportunity will have nothing to do with the old man." ”
Leng Qiuling raised her eyebrows, what is this, someone brought a pillow for dozing off, and after thinking for a while, Leng Qiuling said, "Shopkeeper, I will sell you half of this batch of rice according to the purchase price, on the condition that the news you get must be said word for word." ”
"Deal." The shopkeeper agreed without even thinking about it, although he gave away half of the profits, but it was much better than getting nothing.
Leng Qiuling nodded, took the horse shopkeeper to his guest room, and Zhihua served tea to the two and withdrew with the Li brothers and sisters.
"Miss Leng probably doesn't know yet, there has been a drought in the south, and the price of grain has been raised by more than three or four percent, although there are not so many on our side, but it is also a lot higher, according to the news from the old decay, many grain sellers have recently bought rice at a high price, and it will arrive in Dongyang Town in the near future." The shopkeeper lowered his voice and told the news he had gotten, and a touch of joy appeared on his face from time to time.
