163 made a lot of money
When Jiang Yunzhao returned to Jiang's house, it was already the tenth day of the first month, and the snow on the road did not know how much manpower it took to clear it.
By the time the imperial court reacted, seven or eight days had passed, and the prices in the market had more than doubled in just a few days, and they were still in short supply.
Especially for heating firewood charcoal and the like, the price is rising again and again, just because the New Year is about to begin, according to the practice of previous years, the weather will be hotter and hotter after the New Year, so many people prepare firewood charcoal is not very much.
But the temperature dropped suddenly, and the charcoal firewood at home had been used, which made many people panic, and they wanted to stock up on charcoal firewood as soon as possible, after all, no one knew how the weather would change after this snow.
After Jiang Yunzhao returned home, he sent a letter to the shopkeeper Liu, and after a day or two, he will sell the backlog of materials in his hand depending on the situation, but the speed cannot be too fast, if the sale is too strong, it will lead to a drop in prices.
She invested 100,000 taels of silver this time, and the price of the goods of 100,000 taels of silver doubled, and she had already made a lot of money, and if she continued, she was afraid that there would be risks.
Although Shopkeeper Liu didn't know why he was selling when prices continued to rise, because Liu Xian had already said that it would never be wrong for him to listen to Jiang Yunzhao, Shopkeeper Liu didn't object too much.
In his opinion, maybe because he is a little girl, he is timid and wants to take a stable road, so he will sell now.
On the other hand, the Liu family set up a porridge shed in the city to give porridge, so that those who were displaced and had no food to eat could more or less ensure their lives.
In addition to giving porridge, the Liu family also gave cloth to the victims in the city to make clothes to keep warm.
Although the Liu family needs to pay a small amount of labor as a reward for doing these things, the victims all know that those who can give them rice and materials at this time are benefactors.
After all, the price of rice and cloth was rising every day, and the little labor they had put in was not enough to exchange for the grain and cloth.
The Liu family did not give alms for free, but in exchange for more respect and support from the victims, which surprised Liu Xian.
According to his idea, it should be free alms to exchange the most people's hearts, but Yun Zhao said that what he eats for free is not as delicious as what he earns.
The reputation of the Liu family in the capital gradually increased, and finally even the palace knew that there was a merchant in the capital who was taking care of the victims in his own way.
The emperor sighed a few words in the harem, saying that if there were more such businessmen in the world, there would not be so many people displaced.
The ladies in the harem listened to the emperor's words, and they were not to be left behind, and they rushed to donate a lot of silver jewelry to the Liu family, saying that it was their thoughts to let the Liu family open a few more porridge sheds and rescue a few more disaster victims.
Liu Xian was surprised that things would develop to this point, he had realized that he could get the greatest benefit in exchange, but he didn't expect that it was much better than she thought.
The relationship in the palace, he had never thought about it in his life, but now it is so easy to get in touch.
Because of the support of the palace, the prestige of the Liu family has increased a lot, and those merchants who originally planned to exchange the backlog of goods at home for money looked hot, and began to set up porridge sheds to relieve the victims, but unfortunately, the Liu family has already taken the lead in establishing a reputation, and although the people who follow behind can also change some hearts, they are not as good as the Liu family.
At this time, all of Jiang Yunzhao's supplies had been sold out, and she received a message from Shopkeeper Liu, and this time they earned a total of 112,300 taels.
It was at this time that people from all over the capital began to donate money and materials to help the victims, and although they were affected by the disaster, most of them were able to survive, so it did not cause a catastrophe.
And those who hoarded goods with the intention of making a lot of money were either forced to donate the materials that were pressed in their hands or were suppressed by the imperial court, including some people who bought a large amount of goods from Jiang Yunzhao.
Most of these people's goods were not purchased when the price was low, but only after the price had risen, so in fact a lot of money was wasted.
Some people are distressed and think of a way to return the goods.
But Jiang Yunzhao is very cautious in doing business here, and almost all the goods are in the name of foreign businessmen. After doing this, I deliberately smoothed out the clues, even if someone wanted to find it, they couldn't find it.
Those who had sold a lot of goods in the capital disappeared as if they had evaporated from the world, which made those who bought the goods very depressed.
Jiang Yunzhao pinched the thick stack of silver tickets, and he didn't know what he felt in his heart, more than 100,000 taels of silver actually arrived like this, and sure enough, it was much easier to make money than people.
I still don't know how much money my uncle spent for this disaster. Maybe a lot more than at the beginning.
Although the Liu family has several generations of accumulation, the cost this time should not be small, she has earned so much silver here, she should also have something to say.
Although she urgently needs money, she has tens of thousands of taels of silver in her hand, and she can't use more than 100,000 taels for a while.
"Grandmother, I want to go to my uncle's house, and you know that my uncle's family has done a lot of things for the victims this year, that is, the court is rewarding, I want to go and see. Moreover, I have saved a little silver in my hands in the past few months, and I want to donate it as my own heart. "Jiang Yunzhao went to see Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang knew that the Liu family was in the limelight during this time, so the disdain in her heart was much less, and after listening to Jiang Yunzhao's words, she said with a smile: "You villain's family can have a few pieces of silver in your hands." ”
"Grandmother, I have really saved a lot of silver during this time, I counted it last night, and it is more than three hundred taels." Jiang Yunzhao pretended to be proud and said.
Old Mrs. Jiang was also a little surprised when she heard this, Jiang Yunzhao had been back for a few months, and she already had so much silver in her hands.
However, she just thought about it and understood that the silver should be given by the Liu family.
"Go ahead, Qingque, you take out two hundred taels of silver from my private room, which is my heart." Although the old lady Jiang was a little painful, she still spoke.
"Grandmother, didn't you donate money a few days ago?" Jiang Yunzhao asked with some surprise.
A few days ago, the Chengwang Mansion summoned all the female dependents of the officials above the fourth grade in the capital to donate silver, and the old lady donated five hundred taels of silver at that time, and she came back and had a long pain in her flesh, why is she so active today?
