Chapter 51: Temptation
The shopkeeper immediately asked people to move out all the rice seeds in the warehouse, but in fact, there were not many, and the total was less than ten stones, all of which were the remaining grain seeds this spring.
Gu Junruo is right, this kind of seed cannot be left until next year, every year's grain is left from the previous year, and if you use the previous year, it will have a bad reputation.
Therefore, the grain that cannot be sold will eventually be sold at the same price as ordinary grain, and the loss will be even greater.
Now the two sides are just taking a step back, Gu Junruo and they are in a hurry to use rice seeds at this time, and the grain shop also needs to sell these grain seeds before the autumn harvest, it is a good hit.
Gu Junruo and Liu Kuan inspected the grain seeds, carefully checked each bag, and asked Han Mu to pay after confirming that it was correct.
Han Mu raised his chin to Xiaobei, and let him do it, he continued to sit with his legs dangling and watching the excitement.
The shopkeeper felt that they were not like ordinary businessmen, so he couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, and stepped forward to inquire, "Listen to the accent of the son, it looks like he is from the capital?" ”
Han Mu nodded.
"I don't know what kind of business Gongzi came to Gangneung to do?" The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Although my family is a grain merchant, I am also a little involved in other businesses, maybe I can cooperate again?" ”
It's rare to see such a reckless and stupid businessman, and I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to see it in Gangneung after this time, so it's okay to be able to pit a handful.
Seeing that the grain had been moved to the car to be sent to the dock, Han Mu suddenly didn't bother to speak, so he pointed to the guy and said, "Ask your guy, he knows everything." ”
Han Mu said: "The silver and goods are in order, we are one step ahead." ”
The shopkeeper sent them out with regret.
The grain shop is responsible for delivery, and they also call coolies to deliver goods on the street, so Han Mu asked Xiaobei to lead the way, "Ship to the dock and let the bow be careful, this is Yixian's expectation for a year, and it can't be tided." ”
"Yes." Xiaobei took the order and took people to the dock to transport the goods.
They turned around and went to other grain stores, but this time Han Mu didn't spend money to inquire about the news, and while letting Liu Kuan look at the seeds, he chatted with the shopkeeper and cut the price by the way.
Although the news he got was not as detailed as that of Song Ji's guys, it also verified his words, here in Jiangling, someone is escorting the Yao family's monopoly.
The shopkeeper of Song Ji asked people to stare at Han Mu and a few people, and after a long time, the descendants ran back to report: "I entered Wenji's grain shop, and when I came out, I also pushed several carts of grain. ”
The guy listened with his ears pricked up, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but lean over, "Uncle, I'm not wrong, they are very bold, not like businessmen." ”
The shopkeeper gave him a head to say, "Let me ask you, you didn't talk nonsense to anyone, did you?" ”
"No, it's not that you don't know, I'm very honest and never talk nonsense." Will only tell the truth.
The shopkeeper nodded, touched his beard and thought, "It's a good head, but they really don't look like merchants, but like sons of a family." ”
The shopkeeper just thought about it, he was not very entangled, he just sold a few bags of grain, and he couldn't talk about anything on his head.
Han Mu led people all the way to the past, and he was asked to buy all the rice seeds in several grain stores, and he also bought the bean seeds, and the news he got became more and more comprehensive and detailed.
Gu Junruo had an account in his heart, and when it was evening, Han Mu raised his feet and was about to go to Song Ji on another street, so Gu Junruo stopped him and said, "No need to go, there is enough food." ”
Han Mu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left, "It's finally enough, go back to the inn, go back to the inn, I'm really tired today." ”
He Ziyou also felt that he was too tired to speak for a while.
Back at the inn, they found a corner and sat down, and sighed, "Why are you so tired when you're just talking and walking?" ”
The whole process was bargaining, and Gu Junruo, who was exploring the seeds, lifted his eyelids and glanced at the two of them.
Han Mu came back to his senses and immediately said, "Of course, the hardest thing is you, madam, I'll fan you?" ”
"No need," Gu Junruo refused his fan, and got up after ordering food with his buddy, "Let's go back to the room, it just so happens that we have something to say." ”
Xiaochan immediately asked the guy to bring the meal to the room in a while.
Liu Kuan hesitated and didn't move, so Gu Junruo turned around and called him, "Liu Kuan come over with you." ”
Liu breathed a sigh of relief and bowed his head in response, "Yes." ”
As soon as the door was closed, Xiaochan waited outside, and a few people could tell the secret in the house, but it was not a secret, Gu Junruo asked Liu Kuan, "The grain in Yixian County is sold by local merchants, and there is no grain from other places?" ”
"Yes," Liu Kuan didn't think there was anything wrong, and said: "Although our Yixian County is not as good as Jiangling, Jingjiang and other counties, it produces a lot of grain every year, and it is completely self-sufficient, and there is still a lot left to sell, so there is no need for outside grain merchants to come in." ”
After half a day, Liu Kuan heard that the county order had been inquiring about the entry of grain merchants from other places into the county, and naturally knew what they were thinking, he said: "It is also this year's bad luck that I encountered a flood that is rare in 50 years, which shows that I didn't think that Yixian County needed grain merchants from other places. ”
He said: "The grain sold by the grain shops in the county can be purchased from the farmers in Yixian County, and the other counties are also dominated by local grain merchants. ”
Han Mu felt that what he said made sense, but he faintly felt that something was wrong.
"Whether it deliberately deceived us to monopolize the business, we will find out in a few days." Gu Junruo said: "It is not enough to have only local grain merchants in Danyi County, especially when the Yao family is dominant. ”
She said: "Then when he buys grain with the farmers, isn't it as much as he says, and when he sells grain, he also has the final say." ”
"Yixian County's difficulties today will continue to be repeated in the future," Gu Junruo said: "Yixian must have other grain merchants, of course, local grain merchants are the best, but foreign grain merchants are also indispensable." ”
Gu Junruo pondered for a moment and asked Liu Kuan, "In previous years, the county ordered to come to Jiangling to enter the seeds, and what did you do when you left the dock?" ”
"Because it is an official grain seed, there is no need to go through, as long as there is a handwritten letter from the county order, and then the seal is stamped in the Thorn Mansion, it is not difficult."
Gu Junruo narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and asked, "Then does the Yao family's grain need to be crossed?" ”
"This ......" Liu Kuan paused for a moment and said: "It is necessary according to reason, after all, you have to pay taxes." ”
Gu Junruo curled the corners of his mouth, and said, "You prepare, tomorrow I will let you go to the Assassin Mansion to seal it." ”
Willow wide should be down.
Early the next morning, Xiaobei first changed his clothes, and then changed into civilian clothes and went to the Assassin's Mansion for a trip, and it took an hour before he came back angrily, "Young lady, I pestered them for a long time and gave them money, but they just didn't give us anything." ”
"Why?"
