Chapter 29: New Super Fast Growing Farm (28)
However, it takes time for Qin Cha to receive the news, and it takes time to leave after receiving the news, plus it is impossible for him to hurry over, and the speed of the carriage is much slower than that of the fast horse, so when he arrived at the place where a similar case occurred, Ding Yun had already received the news.
On the same day, or a day or two earlier.
Therefore, he is always one step slower than Ding Yun every time.
can even only follow Ding Yun to eat ashes.
Before anything was investigated, the person was already angry and vomited blood by Ding Yun's provocation and became ill.
It's really pitiful, it's a pity.
It's a pity that his heart is too small and his temperament is too big, so it's good that he didn't die of anger, otherwise Ding Yun might feel guilty.
After all, if a good person is by her.
You have to be silent for four or five seconds.
In this way, she tossed for nearly half a year, and three batches of Qin messengers were sent down from above, and Ding Yun officially stopped doing it, not because she was afraid, mainly because the slightly larger salt merchants in the whole country were basically patronized by her.
There are scattered small doors left.
and the salt merchant who has already been patronized by her to change careers.
There's really no need to keep visiting.
And if the salt merchants really collapsed, then the people in the world would have to eat salt and become a big problem.
The most important thing is that after she tossed for so long, some salt merchants also reacted, and they realized that those salt merchants who sold unadulterated official salt at relatively normal prices basically did not suffer this time.
Therefore, in the case of being forced to do nothing.
They can only compromise too.
They can only compromise and change their daily business model, reduce the price of the official salt they sell, and improve the quality.
has already developed to this point, if Ding Yun continues to press on, won't it force them to die, so naturally it is better to accept it when it is good!
And those salt merchants who have made some changes to the quality and price of official salt, after finding that their own families are fine, of course, other salt merchants have followed suit, making less money, no matter how much they don't make a penny, and even their family funds are about to be hollowed out.
So after a month there is nothing to lose.
The salt merchants finally breathed a sigh of relief.
felt that they had made the right choice, and the other party really wanted to force them to improve the quality of official salt and reduce the price.
But they were relieved, but those Qin Cha who were sent down to investigate the matter had even more headaches, because they couldn't find out what was going on when the other party committed the crime, and now they don't do the crime, where can they find clues?
Originally, the guys who were high-spirited and wanted to show off their skills are now completely depressed, and at the same time hate to death the self who said in the court that he was willing to worry about the monarch, and he can't do anything blindly, but now it's okay.
I can't even find a scapegoat to close the case.
I can't say that I am incompetent.
It's really a dilemma, a dilemma.
However, Ding Yun was too lazy to care about these troubles, or she didn't care about them at all, after she completely put aside the situation related to the salt merchants, she went directly back to Nanhuaguan and accompanied Yunqi Nuguan.
Originally, she was going to take a break.
Even stay in Nanhuaguan, accompany Yunqi Nuguan for the New Year or something, anyway, her grain business is very stable, and there is no problem at all in logistics and transportation, no matter where she stays, she can transport a large amount of grain from the farm to all parts of the country.
But it didn't take long for it to happen.
And it can't be considered sudden.
It can only be regarded as an inevitable result.
That is, the grain merchants will not collect the grain.
Nearly a year ago, those grain merchants felt that Ding Yun's selling grain to the military department at such a low price was an ironclad loss, and they would not even last long before they would lose money, so they never continued to do it, and even sat on the sidelines, or indirectly forced Ding Yun's grain stores to continue to reduce grain prices in some areas.
Because Ding Yun's food was not too sufficient, she didn't care, and even continued to reduce the price of food, and it has continued to this day.
Not to mention how those grain merchants couldn't believe it.
But anyway, the final result is that those grain merchants can't hold on first, after all, grain is not salt or anything like that, and it is no big problem to stock up for ten or eight years.
Not even wood, gold and silver or anything like that.
Grain has a shelf life, the price of new grain and old grain are not the same, not to mention broken grain or even moldy grain, those grain merchants sat on the wall during this period of time and tried to force Ding Yun to reduce the price of the grain shop, directly caused their own business and daily sales, into an unprecedented downturn, the family last year's hoarding of old grain, has not been sold.
In addition, the income has decreased, the capital chain is tight, and the salt business, which was originally particularly profitable, has also suffered a great blow, and these circumstances have combined to make them have little confidence in the future grain business, and even dare not continue to do the same as in the past.
I went to various places to collect grain.
The grain merchants stopped collecting grain, and the small landlords, who mainly relied on selling grain for their livelihood, and the ordinary yeoman peasants who waited to sell their grain and pay taxes, of course, were immediately anxious.
Some have even started to drop their prices.
I desperately want to sell the grain.
This situation is the same as the so-called grain cheapness hurting farmers in the book, that is, there is too much grain, and if it cannot be sold, it can only reduce the price, and in the end, the income from farming may not even be as good as in ordinary years, and it is better than in famine years.
In reality, although food production has not become high.
However, Ding Yun dumped a large amount of grain on the farm at a low price, which is actually equivalent to an alternative kind of grain cheapness and hurting farmers.
Fortunately, Ding Yun had long expected her to do this.
This can cause this to happen.
So I specially told the grain shop keepers in various places, so that once they found these signs, they would notify her immediately, and she would allocate funds to clean up the mess.
After all, this is a sin she created, and she doesn't cover it.
You can't let the ordinary people of the whole world take care of it.
Therefore, as soon as he received the relevant news, Ding Yun could only immediately stop the originally planned vacation, and began to calculate the approximate grain output in various places according to the information collected in the past, as well as the purchase price in the past few years, plus the specific share of taxes that ordinary people need to pay on a daily basis, and so on.
Finally, the purchase price for this year was set.
The price is much higher than the purchase price in previous years.
Then she transported the gold and silver to the major grain stores in the country, and let the shopkeepers of those grain shops start to buy grain in the vicinity, and buy grain at the price she set.
He also signed a contract with the grain seller.
Guarantee that the future purchase price is this standard.
At this point, the situation of not being able to sell the grain that was very likely to cause turmoil was stable, but at the same time, it also brought another problem, that is, Ding Yun now had too much grain inventory in her hands, so much that she had to spend a lot of gold and silver to build a building to store grain.
There is so much food in the imperial treasury in many places.
Not as much as she is.
The most important thing is that in order to upgrade as soon as possible, the food on her farm is still being produced.
Too much trouble with real food!
