Chapter 137: Get Rich

The casino boy was holding a six-stone food stamp in his hand, and he reacted quickly, seeing that someone began to beg in the field! Buy, immediately have the same example, at the expense of high prices to buy five stones, the average price in one stone twelve Wen, at this time, a listen, the door actually someone out of fifty Wen to buy, so that it has increased more than forty times, six stones can be sold for three taels of silver, can not help but be stunned in surprise.

Some people can't hold their breath and sell it, these are covered from the beginning, one article becomes fifty yuan, and ten yuan becomes five hundred yuan, this excitement is too worthwhile.

But the four scholars saw the problem at a glance, and they paid attention to the full grain bags behind several people, which were obviously just bought, which means that they must have found that the price of grain had risen when they bought grain, so they felt that the food stamps of this Daxing grain shop were profitable, so they returned.

Qian said to the four companions: "You see, they are the people who just bought food stamps and went out to buy grain, and they still carry the grain they just bought on their backs, and they are willing to pay 50 wen a bucket, which means that the grain outside has risen by more than 50 wen, do you believe it or not?" ”

The other three nodded hurriedly, and they also stood up one after another, shouting loudly: "We have paid 55 wen and 1 bucket to collect food stamps here, and those who want to sell them should sell them quickly!" ”

……

Fan Yuxuan was stunned when she watched upstairs, and said, "Did you calculate all this, why are you so stupid to only sell it for one penny, and not for fifty wen at the beginning?" ”

Yang Xin said with a smile: "You have to let them find out that it is profitable, so that they can feel at ease, these people are smart and tight, they can't play like fooling the Manchu princes, learn a little!" ”

……

In fact, the price of grain in the grain store outside rose by as much as 200 wen, and finally the price of the grain stamp in the grain store was raised to 220 wen, so no one was willing to pay a higher price, and the reason why it was speculated was higher than that outside, because the grain stamp was cashed in a month, and it rose by 200 wen in one day.

At this time, the casino boy already had ten stone grain stamps in his hand, worth more than 20 taels, and the capital spent, but less than four taels, can be said to be a million profits.

Although the total value of the silver is not too large, the speed of making money is too fast, and no business in this world can make money so quickly, not even robbery.

……

After the excitement of the crowd downstairs, those who made money were excited, and someone shouted: "Shopkeeper, sell too little today, can you sell more tomorrow?" ”

Everyone cheered and agreed, and the atmosphere reached a climax.

Yang Xin took Fan Yuxuan upstairs and said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet!" There is no limit to purchase tomorrow, so let's go back tonight and prepare the silver! ”

Everyone had made more or less money, the crowd cheered and dispersed, and some people were gearing up to make a big move, and there was no one more confident than the four scholars.

Qian's name is Qian Tianen, his father is a salt merchant in Jianghuai, and it can be said that his family has a lot of money, but although he is a scholar, he has not grown up, and he has been in the land of fireworks all day long, and he has only been admitted to a show talent for many years.

After the Qing army captured Huai'an, the family fled to Nanjing, bent on doing something big, but there was no real material, so he could only sigh that he was born at the wrong time, but he couldn't meet Bole.

When Qian Tianen returned home, he took out more than 2,000 taels of pocket money that he had treasured for a long time, and found his mother walking in the garden, and said eagerly: "Mother, can you give the child a little more silver?" ”

Mother Qian glanced at her son and said, "Which Qinglou girl do you have a crush on?" How many times has my mother told you, the woman in the Qinglou is the most ruthless, just cheating you out of your money, why don't you always listen? ”

Qian Tianen hurriedly said: "Mother, it's not what you think, the child has found a way to make money, as long as you give the child capital, the child promises to make you a lot of money back!" ”

Mother Qian was stunned, this son knew that although he was a bit of a loser, he had studied for many years, and he had not been corrupted enough to deceive his family.

Now that I actually want to do business, it can be regarded as growth, so I said, "How much money do you want?" What kind of business are you doing? ”

Qian Tianen saw that his mother's tone was loose, and he was overjoyed, and said: "Can my mother give me 100,000 taels, the child is in the business of frying grain, and now Daming has lost the Huguang grain production base, and the Qing army has come to the city, and the rise in grain is inevitable, and this business has no profits." ”

Mother Qian was taken aback and said, "So much? What you say is good, but after all, you are young and do such a big business, what if you are deceived? ”

Qian Tianen was full of confidence and said, "Mother, please rest assured, the child will definitely succeed this time!" ”

Qian's mother disagreed, and said: "No, doing business is not so simple, you are still too young, my mother does not agree!" ”

Qian Tianen was anxious, pulled his mother's arm and coquettishly said, "Mother, you should always give the child a chance to perform, don't let me try, where do you know the child's ability?" ”

Mother Qian still kept shaking her head and said, "Take 100,000 taels to try, this tuition is too expensive, my mother will give you 5,000 taels at most, and then come to my mother when you earn money!" ”

Qian Tianen had no choice but to agree.

In this way, after taking more than 7,000 taels of silver, Xing hurriedly ran to find his fox friends and dog friends, and the other three people asked for 5,000 taels from their families, and the few only had more than 2,000 taels, and the four of them made up 20,000 taels, and they were excited all night, and they ran to the Daxing grain store early the next morning.

The next day, there was a long queue of people who came to buy food stamps, and they were shocked to find that the price of food stamps had risen to 200 wen and one bucket, that is, two taels of silver and one stone, but in spite of this, there were many people who bought them, because the price of the grain shops outside had risen again, to 14 taels and 1 stone, and the value of this grain stamp had reached 3 taels of silver.

There was no restriction on the purchase of various grain stores, and 50,000 stones were sold on the same day, and the income was about 100,000 taels.

The best sales performance is the grain shop in Qinhuaihe, selling 50,000 taels, accounting for half of the performance of the ten stores, just because the rich second generation here is the most, the normal rich people are not so idle, but also have a lot of business to do, there is no time to sit in the grain shop all day, the main customer object of the grain shop is the rich second generation of Qian Tianen.

As usual, there are people in each grain store who are transferring to each other, because the price of this grain store is two taels, and after a month, you can buy one stone at the price of eleven taels, so plus the grain stamps, you only need to pay thirteen taels and one stone, and the grain store outside has already sold fourteen grains, no matter how it is calculated, it is a good deal.

At this time, the four of them became the biggest customers in Yang Xin's grain store, and Uncle Tian personally entertained them on the side, and also found the most beautiful Jin Shanxi, with two beautiful Goryeo maidservants, to serve tea and pour water on the side.

Everyone was discussing all kinds of information, calculating how much money they could earn from the food stamps in their hands, Qian Tianen said with a smile: "Everyone, don't count, even at the current price, we can earn one or two food stamps, not to mention that the food in a month will be far more than fourteen taels and one stone." ”

Qian Tianen thought to himself, the food stamps in his hand are 10,000 stones, and he can earn 10,000 taels, and if he divides it among four people, he can also divide it into 3,500 taels, and this is just a one-day increase.

Everyone cheered and praised their shrewdness.

Fan Yuxuan, who was upstairs, finally smiled and said, "You're still amazing, but we don't make much money in this way, so it's better to sell grain directly." ”

Yang Xin smiled and said, "Can you sell so much grain in one day?" And these people don't know how to buy it at all, just the storage and transportation of grain is a very troublesome thing, they are just some rich second generations of losers, where do they have the heart to do these things every day, it is much easier to buy food stamps. ”

Fan Yuxuan was right to think about it, and suddenly widened her eyes and said, "You have sold all the grain to people who don't need it!" ”

Yang Xin nodded and said, "Don't worry, the big fish hasn't come yet, and the game has just begun." ”

……

On the third day, the price of grain outside rose by 20 wen per bucket, not much, Yang Xin's price remained unchanged, it was still 200 wen per bucket, two taels of silver and one stone, but he limited the purchase of 50,000 stones, and each grain shop only had a limit of 5,000 stones, which was not enough to sell, especially the Qinhuai River grain shop where Yang Xin was located, which was bought up by the people in line early in the morning, and those who couldn't buy it began to raise the price in tandem with each other.

However, most people want to come back tomorrow to line up, so the price is not too high, only 220 Wen.

Qian Tianen proposed to sell the food stamps and go home with the silver, and the three brothers agreed, of course they didn't want to stop, but just to show the family their performance, so that they could get more capital to invest.

When Qian Tianen went home with the more than 700 taels of silver he earned, Qian's mother was stunned in surprise.

"Son, you've made so much in one day?"

Qian Tianen nodded and said, "Mother, this time you believe the child, the child will never lie to you, this grain speculation business is really profitable." ”

Mother Qian smiled and said, "Okay, my mother will hand over 100,000 taels to you, but you have to be careful, if you lose this money, your father will have to kill you!" ”

Qian Tianen won the ticket, nodded and said: "Mother, don't tell your father first, wait for the child to earn money and take it home, and then show it to him, so as not to worry about extraneous branches." ”

He was afraid that his father would stop him if he found out, and it would be a big trouble.

Mother Qian agreed with a smile and said, "Okay, my son has grown up, it's a good thing to be able to make money for the family, my mother supports you!" ”

Qian Tianen's brothers are similar, they are all rich people who fled from Jianghuai together, and now that the land is gone, there is only silver left, and there is so much silver that it is moldy and has no place to use it.

The four of them actually scraped together a full 300,000 taels of silver tickets and ran to line up early in the morning.

However, they were shocked to find that there was a sign hanging at the door of the grain shop, which said, today's grain stamps are 220 wen per bucket, and the sale is limited to 50,000 stones!

The four of them were in the first place, and they bought out the food stamps in the grain store in one go, and they only spent 110,000 taels, and there were still 190,000 taels that were not spent.

All the people in line in the back instantly fried the pot!

"How? After waiting in line for a long time, you bought it alone? ”

"Looks like it's only early tomorrow!"

"Brother Qian, can you sell me a little, I will pay two hundred and thirty wen!"

……

Qian Tianen and the four of them almost laughed, today's food stamps are all in their hands, and they can sell them at any price they want.

As a result, there was a strange scene in the grain store, Qian Tianen and the four of them were surrounded by everyone to bid, and the four of them were receiving them with a smile, making them the shopkeeper of the grain store.

"What? Two hundred and six? It's too expensive, I might as well wait until tomorrow to queue up! ”

An old man wanted to buy a thousand taels of silver, and asked around Qian Tianen.

Qian Tianen didn't panic at all, and said with a smile: "You don't have to look at luck if you line up, in case the price rises more today, you ask the shopkeeper, will the grain store sell cheaper?" ”

Uncle Tian on the side hurriedly stopped and said: "Naturally not, we are not stupid, we still have to set it according to the outside price, I knew that you took so much silver, I should have persuaded the owner to increase the price to sell." ”

He is still regretting it at the moment, he should persuade Yang Xin to sell more expensively, so he made a lot of money by selling the law.

Qian Tianen was very proud and said, "Then, have you heard it?" Even the shopkeeper regretted selling it cheaply! ”

So, some people accepted Qian Tianen's offer and obediently took out the silver to buy, while most of them said that they would wait and see, and at the same time they also sent people to the grain shops outside to inquire about the price, and Qian Tianen was not stupid, and he had already sent his family to wander around the street and pay attention to the prices of various grain stores.

In the afternoon, there were more and more news coming back, most of which were news that the price of a certain grain store had increased again, and the price of grain stamps had increased to 270 Wen, and even Qian Tianen regretted that it was cheaper in the morning.

Naturally, however, he did not sell all the stamps, only a small part, less than a third.

Fan Yuxuan watched upstairs all day, and saw it very well, and at this time launched the taunting skill, and said: "Yang Xin, it's time for the shopkeeper of your grain store to be replaced, haha, Uncle Tian has been angry all day, he has become a day of spectators, but this Qian Gongzi has been doing business in your grain shop for a day, this girl sees that he has earned at least 10,000 taels of silver today, and the food stamps in his hand can earn another 20,000." ”

Yang Xin laughed and said, "Have you forgotten the Tartar woman in the capital?" You'll have to give them a little sweetness before the fish can take the bait! ”

The next day, when the triumphant Qian Tianen and the four of them went to the grain store, he found that there were a large number of people queuing in front of him, and some people sent their family members to line up in the middle of the night, which made him angry.

The people in the front were triumphant, and the people in the back were uneasy, I was afraid that people like Qian Tianen would be at the front, and the people behind Qian Tianen would even withdraw from the team, and stand on the side in frustration, feeling hopeless to buy, it is better to wait for the grain store to open, and then ask for a big family like Qian Tianen! Purchase.

Until the grain shop opened the door, Uncle Tian walked out and said to everyone: "Everyone, you don't have to line up today, our owner said, I sold it cheaply yesterday, I regret it, I am worried that the price of grain will rise further, so I will not sell it today, if you have food stamps in your hands, we are willing to recycle it at a price of 290 wen per bucket today, if you really want to buy it, the owner will bid 330 wen!" ”

Then the maidservant girl hung up a sign that read, "Today's selling price is 330 Wen, and the buying price is 290 Wen!" ”

The crowd exploded and began to gather together for various discussions.

Uncle Tian said loudly: "You don't have to be polite, you can enter the store to discuss, we continue to provide free tea for everyone, but the dim sum is gone, we lost too much yesterday, and we can't bear it." ”

Everyone burst into laughter, feeling that they had taken advantage of the grain store.

Qian Tianen and the others naturally sat in the best middle position, everyone waited for them to choose a good position first, everyone wanted to please them and hoped to buy the cheapest, at least cheaper than the grain store, and the price of the grain store had risen too much.

Qian Tianen didn't think so, he felt that even the grain shop was sold for 330 Wen, how could he sell it cheaper than this?

"Brother Qian, I'll pay 320 wen to buy a thousand taels, how about it?"

Someone came over and asked impatiently.

Qian Tianen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, wait for our brothers to discuss it." ”

The four of them talked in a low voice, everyone didn't dare to make a sound, waiting for the result of their discussion, after a long time, Qian Tianen stood up, but did not reply, but walked straight to the counter, and said to Uncle Tian: "Shopkeeper, our brothers discussed it and decided to accept the price of the grain store, 330 Wen to buy 200,000 taels!" ”

Everyone was shocked, even Uncle Tian was stunned, and after a while, many people reacted and shouted: "We want to buy it too!" ”

Uncle Tian hurriedly said: "Don't worry, line up, come one by one!" ”

Fan Yuxuan, who was upstairs, almost exclaimed, and whispered in Yang Xin's ear: "Are these people stupid, they don't make money if they have money?" ”

Yang Xin laughed and said: "They are not stupid, they are greedy!" If you are a human being, you can't escape greed, even if you tell them that it is the king who is manipulating, it will be the same result, I told you! ”

Fan Yuxuan, who was upstairs, admired the five-body throw to the ground, and said, "I have learned, amazing!" ”

Until 300,000 taels were sold, there were still people queuing up to buy it, Yang Xin saw that it was almost over, and said to Jin Shanxi, who was waiting on the side: "Go down and inform Uncle Tian that you won't sell it today!" ”

There are seven or eight people who didn't buy it, and they immediately regretted it, these people were the slowest to respond, and finally hesitated to line up, seeing that others had made money, they were naturally depressed in their hearts, and after discussing for a while, a few more people ran to find Qian Tianen.

In this way, the whole city of Nanjing is a sensation today, the entire Daxing grain shop sold 1.5 million taels of silver, although the grain did not rise much, it is only from one tael and one dollar silver to one and a half, or even doubled to the price of the people, but the vast majority of the people who speculated on the grain stamps have doubled, especially the people who invested less money, and bought early, many even earned more than ten times, and the most exaggerated wonder, bought on the first day with a penny and a bucket of food stamps, now 330 Wen, actually magically increased more than 300 times, invested ten cents, It became a legend of Nanjing City.

These people who get rich bring terrifying propaganda effects, now, every Daxing grain shop is overcrowded, Yang Xin can only limit the threshold, less than five hundred taels, not allowed to enter the grain store, they can only trade in tandem in the teahouse, restaurant, and even the streets and alleys, and the door of the grain store is naturally the most.
