Chapter Seventy-One: They Are All Smart People

When the hustle and bustle of the day has dissipated, the silence of the night begins to envelop the land, giving contemplative and peaceful.

At this time, Su Lin was lying on the stone chair looking at the moon in the sky, listening to the sound of insects around him, his heart was also calm, and he no longer had to worry about the future.

At this moment, Debi also came over, sat down on the chair next to her, looked at the sky and asked, "Why do you think people have those evil thoughts?"

"Because it's human, there will be one. Su Lin threw out such a sentence without hesitation.

"Then you also have any evil thoughts, right?" Hearing this, Debi also asked directly, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Then Su Lin also sat up, thought for a while and said: "I naturally have, I want all women to like me, this idea is evil enough!"

Seeing him answer like this, Debi also gave him a blank look, and said with a smile: "If all the women like you, you will be tired to death." ”

Hearing this, Su Lin laughed even more: "Haven't you heard a word? Peony flowers die, and ghosts are also romantic, and I have no regrets for being tired to die on you." ”

As soon as these words came out, Debi immediately blushed and quickly turned her head away, while Su Lin continued to lie down, and he didn't know how he could say this.

If it were in the 21st century, he would definitely love someone wholeheartedly, but now it is impossible, a beautiful woman is liked by a man, and he has the opportunity to get it, so naturally he will have ideas in his heart, and this may be human nature! Fortunately, he is amorous rather than flowery, and he is relieved after thinking about it.

The scene was also very embarrassing at this time, and both of them were pretending that nothing had happened.

After a while, Debi coughed and then asked, "Why do you know that the salt merchants are colluding and not really in the salt shortage?"

"It's simple, if there is a shortage, you've lived here for so long, when have you seen that people can't afford to eat salt?" Surin asked, staring at her.

"It doesn't seem like there is, so how did you come up with this solution? Debbie continued to ask.

At this time, Su Lin didn't know how to answer, he couldn't say that he studied economics in his previous life, economics sounds quite complicated, in fact, the core is two points, supply and demand, and if you understand these two points, you can be regarded as learning economics.

The teacher who taught him at the beginning told them in the first class that the only function of studying economics was to let them not have to listen to the nonsense of those economists on TV, and they did not have to be fooled.

Thinking of this, Su Lin couldn't help laughing, but Debi was stunned when she saw him like this.

The next day, a message came out in the city, saying that the salt mine had been drained this year, so the price of salt was going to rise again.

And it didn't take long for the news to spread in the city, and every corner was talking about it, as if there was a tendency to get more and more intense.

"I heard that the price of salt is going to rise again, but I don't know if it's true. ”

"It's definitely true, now many people have started queuing up to buy salt, and some people have been queuing for a long time without getting it. ”

At the same time, a large group of salt merchants were gathering in a room to discuss what was going on with the recent rumors in the city.

As the boss of the salt shop, Geriff immediately called the people below after hearing the rumors outside to see who was driving up the price of salt and taking advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.

Looking at the chattering people below, Jereve also stretched out his hand to quiet them, and then said, "The first thing I want to know is, is there any one of you who wants to make a fortune from this?"

As soon as these words came out, the people below hurriedly shook their heads and said that they were not themselves.

Seeing this, Jerev also continued: "Since it was not done by our own people, it must have been done by outsiders, come here, go to the dock immediately to inquire, and see if there are any cargo ships docked recently, and what things are being transported." ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Then one of the people in the room took the lead in asking, "President, if there really is an outsider who wants to take the opportunity to steal business with us, then what should we do? Do you want me to send someone to make him and grab the goods?" ”

"No, I'd like to see who has the guts, but he's smart, but it's useless to be smart, I've already guessed what he's going to do. Jereve looked calm, not embarrassed in the slightest.

After a while, the man who had been sent out returned, and reported to Jeff, "Your Excellency, as you might expect, a ship has arrived in the last few days, and many bags of things have been brought from it, but our people know when they smell it that it contains salt. ”

Hearing this, Jerry also laughed: "Now everyone understands, someone wants to make a fortune on our territory, snatch meat from our mouths to eat, since he wants to raise the price, we will follow him, you all go down and prepare, move all the salt out of the warehouse, and we will also take the opportunity to make a fortune." ”

"Haha, he definitely didn't think that doing this would help us, and now we can make a lot of money. ”

"If the president is here, can he beat us? ”

Seeing the smiles on everyone's faces, the corners of Jereff's mouth also raised slightly, he has been working hard in the mall since he was a child, and now it has been more than 40 years, he has long guessed that the man wants to raise the price of salt, and then sell it at a low price.

Although he saw through his idea, he was much smarter than someone who only knew that he wanted to sell with a low price strategy from the beginning, and now he took the initiative to lower the price when it reached the critical point, and the other party would not have any advantage at that time.

At this time, Su Lin was also wandering the streets, and he saw that many of the shops selling salt were already crowded with people, but he also noticed that those merchants did not control the amount of salt, and now almost everyone can buy it.

Seeing this, he also had a trace of doubt in his heart, and then shook his head, secretly wondering if he was thinking too much, and then walked towards the residence.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw Pu Lang running in from outside, and he looked anxious, Su Lin hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, is something wrong?"

"It didn't happen, but in the afternoon a few people were on the dock asking around, and they even sniffed the bags while we were moving things, so I felt weird. Prang spoke in a deep voice about what had happened in the afternoon.

Hearing this, Su Lin's face also sank, he didn't expect that he would be discovered so soon, it seems that he still underestimated the other party, but he is also the head snake here, and he must have his own eyeliner on the dock.

In the afternoon, I saw that the merchants who sold salt did not control the amount of salt, and it seemed that they had figured out their purpose and made wedding dresses for them.

Debi saw his uncertain expression on the side, so she also walked over and asked: "Now that the other party has figured out your purpose, when the time comes, the only way to reduce the price is to make the salt in our hands unavailable." ”

"Don't worry, I have my own way to make them dare not lower the price, if they don't reduce the price now, there will be no chance in the future. Su Lin said confidently, if the other party can still lower the price at that time, he can only admire the other party's clever methods, and he is inferior to others.

"Now that a lot of people have bought salt, if we don't sell it soon, we won't be able to sell all the salt we have. Debbie continued to voice her concerns.

Su Lin is not worried about this problem, twenty tons of salt, only 40,000 catties of salt, Huotuo City has a population of more than 200,000 catties, and the average per capita is only more than half a catty, and when the time comes, he will sell it at a very low price, and I believe that it will only be a matter of minutes to sell.

Immediately Surin called Gru and asked him to take someone to do something, something very important.

When it was dark in the city of Hoto, every house had their windows and doors tightly shut, because it was very unsafe at night.

At this time, in a dilapidated house, a group of people in simple clothes and a little dirty were gathering together to bake the fire, bowing their heads and talking.

"Led, we haven't worked for a few days now, and the people we used to do don't want us anymore, what should we do next?"

"Yes, those rich people call us a good one, but once the matter is done, they ignore us at all. ”

Hearing the talk of his subordinates, a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old had no expression on his face, and his eyes were very bright in this dark night.

Then he said: "We are not good people, those rich people hired us to do those shady things before, and they also gave us money, this is a transaction, so I can't complain about them." ”

As soon as these words came out, someone said, "That's what I said, but what should I do now?"

Led replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry, we won't die of hunger, when the time comes"

But before he could finish speaking, the door was pushed in, and the dozen or so of them quickly stood up, and then looked at the door, and then saw a man walk in and throw a money bag at them.

After taking it, Leed opened it and saw that there were more than twenty gold coins in it, which was a lot of wealth, and he also asked directly: "What do you want us to do?"

"It's simple, do me one thing. Gordon said in a deep voice.

"What if we don't want to?" asked Led, the money was more than all the previous tasks combined, and all the tasks were certainly not easy, and he didn't say yes right away.

And Gordon's answer was also very simple, he directly pulled out the dagger on his waist, and then threw it at their feet, stuck it on the ground, and said in a cold tone: "If you don't want to, then you can only die." ”

But as soon as he said this, he immediately laughed, and at the same time pointed at him and laughed: "You alone want to kill us." ”

As soon as the words fell, a sharp knife appeared on the man's neck, and at the same time, a cold voice sounded in his ears: "Who said he is only one person." ”

After a while, a knife appeared on the necks of more than a dozen of them, which had been controlled by the sword and shield soldiers who had quietly crept in.

Just when they didn't have time to guess how these people came in, they heard the leader look at them again and said: "The content of the task is in the money bag, it's very simple, the money is given to you a lot, in the words of our adults, I can give everything I can, the choice is yours, no matter what the consequences, it is your own choice." ”

With that, Gordon left with the people, leaving behind a dozen people who were still in a daze.
