The shopkeeper Hua was worried and told the Vermilion Bird Rice Grain Store that all the current grain was reduced in price, and now the business of the grain store has plummeted, and basically no one comes to buy it.

"They're trying to bring us down, and they sincerely don't want us to do business."

Suzaku is also a little strange, I don't know what the Mi family has in mind.

"How long have they been doing this?"

"It's been four days! Originally, I thought it was just an opening event, and I didn't care about it, but today is the fourth day, so it's a bit too much to say. ”

Suzaku was still a little unsure, so he asked the shopkeeper Hua to go directly to the Mijia Grain Store to inquire about the news.

The other party was very direct, and when he saw the shopkeeper Hua, he immediately made his attitude clear.

"Our Mi family said that a shop is not worth mentioning, but this face is damaged. Since everyone is in business, then see you in the mall, and you will definitely let your Suzaku girl offer her hands to the shop and earn back her face. ”

The Mi family is full of confidence, and the momentum of refusing to give up makes Suzaku have to pay attention to it and negotiate with the shopkeeper Hua.

"If he lowers the price of food like this, will the government intervene?"

"Miss Suzaku, don't you know, the government basically won't interfere in the grain market, but it's not a laissez-faire, just a regulatory role."

"Regulation? How is the law regulated? ”

As the old shopkeeper of the grain industry, the shopkeeper Hua is proficient in the grain industry, and when he saw that Suzaku was not clear, he patiently explained.

"Does the girl know the granary of the country?"

"This should be a warehouse used by a country to store grain."

"That's right, girl. But do you know the role of the granary of the state? ”

"Isn't that as a strategic material? I know that. The food was stored first, and when the war was fought, it was directly used by the army. ”

"It's just one of them, and there's another important thing that the girl didn't say."

Suzaku scratched his head, he really hadn't thought about the specific role of the national granary, but when the shopkeeper asked like this, he really couldn't answer. Shopkeeper Hua stroked his beard and continued.

"The second thing is to ensure the stability of the country."

"Is this still related to the stability of the country?"

"yes, it has a lot to do with it. If the price of grain is not controlled, it will certainly cause turmoil. The national granary is to ensure the stability of grain prices. ”

It was the first time for Suzaku to hear such an assertion, and he felt very interesting, urging the shopkeeper Hua to continue.

"If there is a good harvest year, the state will buy a large amount of grain and store it to ensure that the price of grain at that time will not be too low because of the high production. In a year of disaster, the price of grain will continue to rise due to grain failure, and at this time, the state will open a warehouse to release grain to prevent the price of grain from being too high and cause social unrest. So, the national granary guarantees an aspect of the stability of the country. ”

Suzaku somewhat understood, but still had some doubts.

"Wouldn't the state lose a lot of financial resources if it operated like this?"

"No, no, not only will you not lose, but you will also make a lot of money. Do you think that the price of grain in a good harvest will be much lower than that in a disaster year, so how can there be no profit? ”

Suzaku only understood thoroughly at this time, and he also knew that only relying on a rice grain store to lower prices should not be able to shake the overall situation, and if he wanted the government to come forward to solve the problem at this time, he should not be able to do it.

Suzaku was a little big-headed, and after thinking about it for a long time, he already had a plan in his heart.

"Shopkeeper Hua, shouldn't we be the only ones who are engaged in grain trading in Linshan City, right?"

"Although this mountain city is not big, there are eight companies that operate grain trading, and their scale is about the same."

Suzaku smiled, if your Mi family does this, it is not only me Suzaku who will be offended, but the other six families will also suffer from it. Then the six of us will join forces, and I am afraid that your Mi family will not succeed.

"Shopkeeper Hua, tomorrow you will go to the shops of the other six families to inform you, we will join forces, I don't believe that the Mi family can continue to run rampant."

Shopkeeper Hua also felt that today's plan was the best, so he agreed.

On the second day, the shopkeeper walked around, and when he returned, he brought the shopkeepers of the other six grain stores. After all, it is the same business, and everyone has opinions on the Mi family's approach, so they will find a way to boycott the Mi family.

In the end, it was agreed that since the Mi family sold at a low price, the seven families would unite to stock up on the goods, and see how big a pound your Mi family could be, and when the time came, your Mi family had no grain to sell, and they would definitely come to bow their heads and admit their mistakes.

Next, the seven grain stores sent people to the rice house to buy grain, and they wanted as much as they wanted.

On the first day, all the rice grain stores were sold out. People gather together to celebrate each other.

The next day, the Mijia Grain Store re-distributed the goods, and was jointly bought by the seven companies.

The same was true on the third day.

On the fourth day, it was still the same.

……

On the tenth day, the Mi family still had grain coming in, and the shopkeepers of the seven grain stores were a little nervous.

"I said shopkeeper Hua, how much stock does this Mi family have? Why can't it be sold out? ”

"Yes, shopkeeper Hua, now my shop is full, and there is no place to buy it again."

"Also, now that all the money is used to store grain, if the Mi family can still hold on, we will lose a lot."

……

Everyone began to worry, and it was only then that they knew that they had underestimated the Mi family. I also suddenly remembered that the foundation of the Mi family was not in Linshan City, but in Beiyouzhou. What is the background of the Mi family, it can be seen.

What to do? Now it is a difficult situation to ride a tiger, and the only way to do so is to rush forward. The so-called confidant knows that the other side can win all battles, and immediately find someone to inquire about the news of the Mi family.

Before the news came, the shopkeeper of the Mi family grain store came to the door first.

The shopkeeper of the Mijia grain store is surnamed Qian, with a short figure, a round body like a leather ball, and mung bean-sized eyes like two thin slits.

"Hahaha——, what a coincidence, are the seven shopkeepers here? That's fine, I can save more errands. ”

The seven people looked at each other, knowing that the planned plan had already been seen through by others, and they might even fall into the trap of the other party. Just as I didn't know how to answer, the person who had sent out to inquire about the news also returned. When the seven people heard the news of the inquiry, their faces were immediately like ashes, and the shopkeeper Hua didn't care about anything else, and immediately ran up to the second floor to find Suzaku.

"Suzaku girl, something is wrong! Suzaku girl, we've been tricked. ”

After Suzaku agreed on a plan from several houses, he let the shopkeeper Hua take charge, and he looked through the books in the warehouse that he crossed with him on the second floor, there were too many books, and they were all-encompassing, and Suzaku had only read a very small part of them so far. Hearing the panicked footsteps of the shopkeeper, Suzaku was able to come back to his senses.

"Suzaku girl, we've been fooled! The people of the Mi family are down there, what should we do? ”

Suzaku couldn't hear it clearly, and he didn't know how to be fooled, and the Mi family came to the door.
