311. Stockpiling grain
He didn't talk about it, and Li Mobai didn't ask anymore.
When he left the house after eating, Shen Ci asked him worriedly, "Doesn't the emperor think it's strange?" ”
"If he makes this money through serious channels, I'm afraid he won't be able to make the tip of the iceberg in his life."
Li Mobai: "Don't worry, he can find us, and the silver of the flowing water will naturally be heard when it is spent." ”
"Don't worry, he'll be on his own soon."
Sure enough, that night, the people of the Liang Mansion found the house and asked Li Mobai to go to the Liang Mansion for an appointment.
He even told him that he could only go alone, and if he brought others with him, Liang Li would not see him.
The walls of the Liang Mansion were so high that even if they were as tall as Chu Yuezhi, they would not be able to lurk inside.
"This is strange, the emperor sneaked in alone, but I am afraid that there is a risk."
Li Mobai: "It's okay, how do I know what tricks he is going to play if I don't go?" ”
"He provided us with a place to live, and paid a lot of money for us to have a sumptuous meal, and I don't believe that he wants nothing but to disadvantage me."
Wu Shiyin said from the side: "The emperor is not unable to go, there is a good thing for you." ”
He took out a packet of powder from his arms and handed it to Li Mobai, and stabbed a silver needle into the back of Li Mobai's neck at a very fast speed.
Li Mobai frowned at him, "What do you mean?" ”
Wu Shiyi said with a smile: "Weichen has sealed the emperor's acupuncture points, the powder in this is soft tendon powder, and the medicinal effect is extremely domineering, ordinary people only need to dip a little bit of it to lose all their strength." ”
"Because the emperor has sealed the acupuncture points, he is immune to the effect of this substance. If they dare to be unfavorable to the emperor, the emperor will only discipline them to be human beings. ”
Soft tendon powder is a common poison in the uterus.
Chu Yuezhi has been conquering the battlefield for many years, and he has also had a lot of experience in dealing with this thing.
He believes that Wu Shiyi is exaggerating the effect of the soft tendon powder, "This soft tendon powder is almost always used again when it is taken with water, and it takes at least a quarter of an hour for it to take effect." ”
"What should you do if you give the emperor this packet of powder, if you don't have time to use it at that time, and it makes a big mistake?"
Wu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a smile, "Chu Dudu doesn't believe it?" ”
He took the bag of powder, the powder bag was not opened, he just blew lightly on Chu Yuezhi, he immediately felt that his feet were soft, and he could only half-kneel on the ground when he supported his body.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Shiyin entered the acupoint with a silver needle, and he regained his strength.
"Now you believe it?"
Seeing the strength of the soft muscles, Chu Yuezhi was a little relieved to let Li Mobai go alone.
When he arrived at Liang's Mansion again, Liang Li met Li Mobai in his bedroom.
He still had a greasy smile on his face, and said, "Brother Li, it's just the two of us now, I have a way to make money, I don't know if you're interested?" ”
Li Mobai got straight to the point and said: "Your way to make money, but you want to step on the red line of Daqi?" ”
Liang Li laughed openly, and said with his chin bowed: "Brother Li is quick to talk, and I don't go around in circles with Brother Li." The red line will be stepped on, but I can guarantee that Brother Li is safe and sound. ”
Li Mobai turned around and sat down, "No one has too much silver." If you want to make a lot of money, you have to take risks. ”
"Brother Liang might as well talk about it, what is a good way to make money?"
Liang Li leaned closer to him, lowered his voice and said, "I don't know if Brother Li knows that there was a food disaster in the south the year before last?" ”
Li Mobai nodded lightly, "I've heard a little." ”
Did he just hear about it?
That food disaster caused a lot of trouble for the people to make a living, and in many remote areas, there was even a situation of changing children and eating them.
In order to prevent the earthquake, the imperial court suffered heavy losses in the treasury and grain storage.
Liang Li continued: "Then do you know how much I profited from that famine and food disaster? ”
Li Mobai shook his head, and Liang Li stretched out a palm, "This number." ”
Li Mobai guessed: "Fifty thousand taels? ”
Liang Li nodded, and quickly shook his head again, "It's fifty thousand taels, but it's not silver, it's gold." ”
These words mean that even Li Mobai, the emperor, has to call a good guy in his heart.
What is the concept of 50,000 taels of gold?
This is already worth the tax and silver paid by the three foreign countries in the past.
"Fifty thousand taels of gold? So, you have stockpiled food? ”
"Clever! But I wasn't alone, and the food disaster was planned by me. ”
Mentioning this matter, Liang Li was very conceited and proud, "Over the years, as long as there are businessmen passing by Liangdu, I will personally receive them." ”
"And I mentioned the same thing to them. That is to let them buy rice and noodles locally at ordinary prices and hoard them. ”
"Over time, the number of hoarders will increase, and the food will not be enough, and the people will naturally go crazy to grab it."
"At this time, the grain is dispersed and sold in batches at several times the normal price. Then these merchants who stocked up on grain would be able to make a lot of money. ”
"Such a mutually beneficial thing, I believe that Brother Li has no reason to refuse."
Li Mobai was shocked.
Stockpiling is very easy to detect, and if the tonnage of grain is small, it may not be noticed, but once the quantity is large, the local officials will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly.
Liang Li blatantly did these things in the south, why didn't the imperial court know?
Li Mobai said tentatively: "If this matter is discovered by the imperial court, it will be a capital crime to kill the head." ”
Liang Li touched his neck and teased: "So Brother Li saw that my head fell off now?" ”
Li Mobai: "Do you have any connections?" ”
Liang Li nodded, "It's still a big deal." In short, as long as Brother Li is willing to follow me, I will keep you and double your income within two years. ”
A big deal with the sky?
The central official in charge of grain was the head of the household, and the local prefect assigned to handle the matter.
Liang Li blatantly did this, I am afraid that the household department and the prefect have a relationship that cannot be escaped.
After Li Mobai thought about it for a while, he immediately responded to Liang Li, and said: "It's just that Brother Liang said that I'm timid, but I'm still afraid that this matter will not be able to contain the fire." ”
"If Brother Liang is willing to recommend someone to give me asylum, then this matter will be much easier."
Seeing that Liang Li was silent and seemed embarrassed, Li Mobai took out a silver ticket from his arms and handed it to him, "Brother Liang led me to the door, and I am not a small businessman who is not a good person." ”
"This money is a gift money for me to thank Brother Liang for bringing me into the game, and I hope Brother Liang will accept it with a smile."
Liang Li glanced at the denomination on the silver ticket, which was a full 10,000 taels of silver at that time.
In this way, he also believed in Li Mobai's strength, and said boldly: "Okay, since Brother Li trusts me so much, I should also give Brother Li a guarantee!" ”
"Tomorrow at noon, I will hold a banquet at the house, and then Brother Li can come to the appointment, and I can see the person you want to meet."
"It's just that this matter can't be made quiet, so I also ask Brother Li not to tell anyone about it, even Mrs. has to hide it."
Li Mobai's jaw bowed, "That's nature." If you want to keep your head when it comes to making a lot of money, you have to take care of your tongue first, I understand this reason. ”
Take care of your tongue, Li Mobai understands.
But if Liang Li understands it or not, he doesn't know.
Xu is that he is too inflated, and he dares to tell him everything without knowing the root of Li Mobai.
Of course, he would never have dreamed that the person he was now recruiting into the gang would be the saint of today.
