Chapter 50: Bargaining

Gu Junruo: "So Xu Tingshi blocked the grain merchants from other places from entering Yi County, not to block the road, but to block the documents and other things of the merchants?" ”

"That's right, Lord Thorn Shi is very busy, how can he work so hard for a small Yao family, and block the road to stop it, pass a sentence down, after you go in and out of Jiangling, then your business will be cut off." The guy is still very knowledgeable.

This trick is indeed ruthless enough, and it still shows no traces, which is much more clever than shouting and shouting and killing, and intercepting directly on the road.

Han Mu and Gu Junruo both said that they had been taught.

"Then let's talk about grain seeds, are you good for seeds here?"

The guy immediately said: "Okay, the whole Jiangling has the best grain in our family, and other families are not as good as others." ”

The three of them were skeptical of his words, thinking that he was a princess selling melons, so they asked him to take out the grain seeds and take a look.

The guy turned out the grain seeds, and said: "Guest officer, you really went to Yixian County, although it is our grain shop that you have benefited from buying grain seeds, but I still kindly advise you, at this time, send the grain seeds to Yixian, it will be the same as a sheep entering the tiger's mouth." ”

"If the refugees in it are in trouble, they will even eat people, let alone food," said the man, "and this grain is much more valuable than food." ”

Han Mu took the opportunity to ask, "How much is a bucket?" ”

"Ninety Wen One Bucket."

Han Mu: "Isn't it all rice, it's too expensive." ”

The guy didn't mind, and said with a smile: "Lang Jun was not in the grain business before, so naturally he didn't know that this grain has always been more expensive than grain, and these are all good seeds carefully selected from all over the world." ”

"You just look at this batch, this is Dangyang's carefully selected grain last year, this batch is our Jiangling County, the price is higher, ninety-two Wen one bucket," the guy introduced them one by one, there are not only carefully selected grain varieties from various counties in Jiangling Prefecture, but also grain sent from other places, but the price is lower than the local one.

In the words of the guy, "Our Gangneung is the granary of the world, the yield per mu is one of the best in the country, and the taste of the rice is also excellent, so our seeds are better than those outside, so they are naturally a little more expensive." ”

Han Mu and He Ziyou couldn't tell whether the seeds were good or bad, and the two of them looked at the knowledgeable Gu Junruo together.

Gu Junruo noticed it, looked up at them, and then turned around and said to Xiao Bei: "Go back and bring Liu Kuan." ”

Liu Kuan is an old official they brought from Yixian, and he will recognize the grain seeds.

Xiaobei should get down, turn around and run out, their inn is not very far from here, it used to be shopping while looking for a food store, so it took a long time.

Now that I found a place, I went straight through the alley, and soon returned to the inn to bring people out.

Gu Junruo took advantage of this effort to simply learn more about grain seeds, and also looked at bean seeds and wheat seeds.

The guy didn't mind that they asked too much but didn't say to buy, and enthusiastically introduced them, and spoke so dry that the shopkeeper who was resting in the backyard couldn't help but come out to see the situation.

Seeing that Han Mu and the others were well-dressed, and their accents were not from Jiangling, he stepped forward with a smile, "The guest officers want to buy Jiangling's grain?" But I don't know where my home is, we have a lot of water in Jiangling, so the grain is also more water-loving, and the place in the north is not suitable for the grain in Jiangling. ”

When Han Mu heard this, he had a good impression of the shopkeeper, so he said: "It's not sent to other places, it's just sold to Yixian." ”

The smile on the shopkeeper's face remained unchanged, and he smiled on his chin: "That's appropriate, what kind of food do the guest officials want?" ”

Han Mu put away his good impression of him just now, this person is not sincere.

Just thinking about it, Liu Kuan arrived.

Gu Junruo asked Liu Kuan to come up to see the grain, and at the same time negotiated the price with the shopkeeper, "We are going to do business, and the shopkeeper also knows that now that Yixian County has been affected, the price of this grain is too high to sell, so I also ask the shopkeeper to be cheaper." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and promised them less than a penny.

Han Mu and He Ziyou both turned their faces away in disgust, there was less than ninety yuan of grain, and they were not called Huazi.

Gu Junruo didn't speak, and after looking at the seeds for a while, he asked Liu Kuan, "How?" ”

Liu Kuan reported in a low voice, "These seeds are indeed carefully selected, slender and full, it looks like the best seeds in Jiangling County, but our Yi County is not far from Dangyang County, the environment is similar to them, and it is enough to use Dangyang County, I heard that the yield per mu in Dangyang County last year was more than three stones." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and asked in a low voice, "How does the price of this kind compare with this spring?" ”

"Same price."

"So sure?"

Liu Kuan said: "This spring, the county government also bought some grain seeds and distributed them to poor households, and it was Gangneung Mansion that the lowly official and the county commander came to come together. ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "It was also taken with Song Ji?" ”

"Everybody bought some."

"Has the price come down?"

Liu Kuan nodded, "Because I bought a lot, I pressed down one or two articles, but if I bought more, I won't do it." ”

Gu Junruo said that he understood, and then turned his head and said to the shopkeeper: "Seventy-five Wen Yidou, if the shopkeeper is willing, I will buy all the rice seeds in your store, and I will buy some more bean seeds." ”

The shopkeeper's smile, "The lady said that she laughed, this grain is different from others, and the price is not cut like this......"

Gu Junruo said: "This is last year's rice seeds, the autumn harvest is imminent, the grain is called old grain for a year, and the price will fall. ”

The shopkeeper frowned.

Gu Junruo said: "As soon as the autumn harvest is over, you can only sell this batch of rice seeds as ordinary grain, and the price will not be seventy-five yuan, but ten yuan." ”

The shopkeeper laughed, "It seems that the lady wants to do this business very much, so how about eighty-five Wen Yidou?" ”

Gu Junruo: "Seventy-five texts." ”

"The lady is talking about two months later, at the moment, it is the guests who urgently need this batch of grain, if you want to buy grain at a low price, you can wait for two months."

Gu Junruo smiled at him and said, "Shopkeeper, just now your guy Ji just said, Jiangling is the granary of the world, so I think, in this Jiangling Mansion, there should be a lot of grain shops, and there are also many grain shops with grain seeds, right?" ”

"We want to do this business, but we don't have to do this business, after all, the situation in Yixian County is not good now, the price is too high, and it is not worth our trip."

The shopkeeper pondered.

Gu Junruo saw that he couldn't make up his mind, so he turned around and left.

Han Mu and He Ziyou were stunned, "This is leaving?" Don't talk about it any more? ”

"Don't talk about it, go to Wenji and have a look."

"Wait a minute," the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped her, with a painful look on her face, "That's it, seventy-five is seventy-five, I don't know how many bean seeds you need?" ”

Gu Junruo smiled slightly, reported a number, and then said, "We have to check the rice seeds and bean seeds one by one." ”

"This is natural, rest assured, our grain will never be a problem."
