Chapter 83
Mingxiu thought for a while and said, "Isn't there a grain and oil shop in the town that collects grain?" Let's sell it to them at a discount. ”
There will be some losses, but it will not be too much, Xie Zhan's previous words can now see a lot of clues, in just half a month, the price of grain has risen by 10%.
Don't look at this as if it's not much, but the base of grain is large!
Although the reason given by the grain and oil shops for this is because it is the late spring period, and last year's grain harvest was not in all places to cause the price to rise, but the slightest insight will not believe their statement.
It's not that no one sees the trick, when the price of grain has just risen, some people have already begun to stock grain, but it is not obvious, most of them are like the original Ming family, to cover up, a small amount of many times to buy grain.
But after all, it wasn't what the Ming family did without any signs, and it was still seen by people with a heart in the end.
For example, the expository show.
Nowadays, the price of grain and oil purchased by grain and oil shops in the city is not low, at least it is much higher than in previous years, and in any case, it is much better than waste.
Ming Mu thought about it, although it was a pity to waste a lot of money this time, but it was indeed much better than wasting.
She didn't hesitate for long, and quickly replied, "Okay, mother, I'll go and pack up, and when Ming'er goes to town, I'll take the grain and sell it." ”
They bought a small number of times, although it looks inconspicuous, but it has accumulated for such a long time is a lot, and it is impossible to say that it will not be shipped in one trip.
"Don't worry, the grain and oil shops on the left and right have always been there, transport them to the town first, and talk about the sale when we have to leave."
Mingxiu looked at the price of food now as if it would rise, although she didn't expect to make money from this, but it was good to lose a little less, and she also planned to take some of the food on the road.
Although she has not experienced the cruelty of war, she has seen it in books, and she is concerned just by thinking about such a scene, so she wants to prepare as early as possible when it is only the first hint of it.
Her abilities are limited, and if the war starts, all she can do is to make herself and her family have no worries about food and clothing, nothing more.
This is just a trivial matter, and Ming's mother will not refuse, "Okay." ”
Now that it is getting late, the cellar where the grain is stored is dark and dark, and the air is thin, so it is not easy to light the lamp, Mingxiu thought about asking her mother to come back tomorrow morning to clean up, after all, they are not short of this time, and Mingji has closed down recently.
The explanation to the outside world is that because the owner is coordinating the matter of increasing the rental price, there is no time to continue the operation, and the matter on the owner's side will be resolved until the matter is resolved.
The diners who had been kept in their mouths by Ming Ji had a lot of complaints about the host.
Mingxiu didn't think about it so much at first, she just thought that they were going to leave left and right, and it didn't make a difference between opening a few more days or opening a few days less, although they were short of money, but it was not to the extent that they lacked turnover in these days.
"By the way, we still have some harvest in our field."
Ming's mother is very melancholy, if she wants to leave recently, the vegetables in the field can be harvested, but some of the ripening period is relatively long, I am afraid that it will be wasted.
Speaking of which, this is really sad.
I didn't expect that there would be so many things to move away, Mingxiu pursed her mouth, "When it is ripe, it will be sold to Xian Xianglou, I think Shopkeeper Xu is still willing to sell it to me, as for those ...... that are about to mature" She thought about it, there is actually no good way to do this kind of thing, "Let's see who wants to buy our land, and those grains will be given to them for free." ”
Although it is a pity, it is not wasted, and it can only be done in a hurry.
Ming's mother sighed, "Listen to you." ”
Although their land is not much, but the location is not bad, the house is also a blue brick house that has only been built recently, if it is cheap, Ming's mother must not be happy, no one in the village can afford it, so you can only go to the town to find it.
"Let's find a guy to help each other first, don't make this matter known to everyone."
If it weren't for the fact that such a thing as buying and selling a house could not be achieved in a day or two, Mingxiu wouldn't even want to release the news now.
Mingmu nodded, "You can rest assured about this, it will be done properly." ”
Anyway, they've been running a shop in town for so long, and they can still get this thing done.
Carrying the food straight to the town, the group barely got in.
It's just that Mingxiu and his parents forgot that they need to pay additional taxes when they bring large things into the town, although this matter has also been done when setting up stalls, but it has been a long time since then, and they don't even have enough copper plates on them.
If it weren't for the fact that among the people who also entered the town, there were merchants with enough copper plates on their bodies to exchange the whole silver ingots with them, so I really had to let Father Ming go to the shop to get the loose money before coming out to pick them up.
"Thank you so much for this trouble."
Father Ming stepped forward to thank him with some embarrassment.
The merchant waved his hand, "Everyone has encountered trouble when they go out, but it's just a gesture, don't take it to heart." ”
Although he didn't care, Ming's father still insisted on inviting him to Mingji for a meal.
The merchant could not shirk it, and could only accept it.
"So you're the owner of this shop?" The merchant made no secret of his surprise, "I heard from a friend that the food in this shop is so good that you can swallow your tongue, but unfortunately it has been closed recently, and I have never had the opportunity to taste it." ”
Ming's mother came out with tea, and just when she heard his words, she said with a smile: "Then let's eat with an open stomach today, do you have any taboos?" ”
"As long as it's delicious, I'm not a picky eater!" The merchant waved his hand and chatted with Ming's father again.
He has a very good attitude towards Ming's father, but he doesn't respect Ming's mother very much, such an attitude makes Mingxiu feel a little uncomfortable, but seeing Ming's father talking to him happily, Mingxiu can't say anything more.
After all, for so many years, there are not many people who can talk to Ming's father.
According to his own words, his name is He Yu, a person from the capital, who makes a living by reselling, and came to the border city to get some special products from the border city to go back and make a difference.
Such people have existed in all dynasties, and it is normal to explain that Mingxiu accepted it easily.
But Xie Zhan frowned on the side, he didn't know what he thought, he didn't say a word to He Yu, even if He Yu took the initiative to find him, he didn't pay attention to it.
Although Father Ming was a little unhappy, he didn't say much.
sighed slightly in his heart, and could only smile apologetically at He Yu.
