Chapter 914: How Much Do You Say?!
"And 100,000 stone grain is sold, enough to earn back more than 100,000 taels of silver at a time, which is currently enough for us, do you still want to be higher, do you want to go up to the sky......"
"Wait!"
Li Guangyan said as he spoke, thinking of Li Qingze's character.
Li Qingze has always listened to him the most, and Li Qingze has never violated the things he explained to him.
It stands to reason that he has made it very clear that if Li Qingze is allowed to get rid of the grain in his hands, he will not see tangible benefits, or if he sees the price of grain rise wildly with his own eyes, and reach a point of interest that he cannot refuse.
It was absolutely impossible for Li Qingze to disobey his words.
Li Guangyan looked at Li Qingze with an angry face: "Didn't you listen to me, continue to secretly hoard grain, and raise prices?!" ”
Li Qingze said in a low voice: "Third brother, I ......"
"How much?!"
Li Guangyan looked at Li Qingze's appearance that he didn't dare to speak, and knew that he really did that, he clenched his palm tightly and said angrily: "How much grain did you hoard later?" ”
“…… 150,000 stone ......"
"How much?!"
Li Guangyan's voice was a little sharper.
Li Qingze's head almost hung down to his chest, and his voice was like a mosquito: "150,000 stones." ”
"Are you crazy?!"
Li Guangyan thought that when he heard Li Qingze's words, he was almost so angry that he recited it in one go:
"There is only such a big place in Beijing, 100,000 stone of grain is already the limit, if you hoard another 150,000 stone, do you want the entire capital to not be able to buy rice? If all the rice on the market is hoarded by you, the people will have no food to use, and it will cause riots, do you know?! ”
"Although we are careful in hoarding food, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not leave traces, in case it really causes turmoil in Beijing at that time, the palace will track it down, do you think your life is too long, don't have a head!!"
"Third brother, third brother, don't worry, listen to me......"
Li Qingze looked at Li Guangyan's angry appearance, and hurriedly stretched out his hand and pressed his arm and said urgently:
"Later, the grain was not from the capital, I received it from people outside, I didn't touch the grain on the market in Beijing, really, I didn't touch it..."
"Really?"
"Really."
Li Qingze hurriedly promised: "You told me before that hoarding too much grain will cause turmoil in Beijing, how dare I come nonsense, I just saw that the price of grain has risen wildly, and in the blink of an eye, it has reached Siguan, so I have collected so much grain from people outside." ”
"I originally wanted to slowly release these grains in the past two days, and after transferring them to those grain merchants in Beijing, I would make more money for you at a time, but I didn't expect that the people below were so careless that they actually let the granary catch fire, and then things got out of control, and it also alarmed the ...... of Fengtian Mansion."
Li Qingze's face was full of chagrin:
"Third brother, it's all my fault, I shouldn't be so greedy, and I shouldn't have disobeyed you, if I had sold that grain earlier, it wouldn't have become what it is now."
Li Guangyan was really angry enough by Li Qingze.
He didn't expect Li Qingze to be so confused, Siguan? How can food prices rise to such high levels for no apparent reason? He had obviously told him again and again before, and he would get rid of it as soon as the price of food doubled.
Li Qingze also told him that he had already sold the grain.
But who knew that he actually deceived him, hiding that not only did he not sell the grain, but also bought so much back.
