Chapter 161: Calculating the Grain Merchant
Jiang Zhiyue smoked the seven points of anger at Lin Yiyi, who was going to take revenge and push her out of the ox cart, and her heart was much happier.
After she left, Fang Nian withdrew her apologetic gaze, and also appeased the irritable Lin Yiyi.
Fang Nian's voice was gentle and clear, and after rearranging Lin Yiyi's clothes, he followed her back again and again to help her calm her mood.
Lin Yiyi's clothes were not completely damaged, they were just torn apart, and now that they are dressed up and covered up a little, they can't be seen.
What Fang Nian wanted was to hurry back now, at this time, most of the families were cooking at home, and there were not many people outside, so maybe if he was lucky, he wouldn't meet anyone.
But Lin Yiyi seemed to be stupid in place, and only looked at the direction where the two ox carts had just left, staring at her eyes as big as copper bells.
Fang Nian's voice attracted her attention, "Yiyi, let's go quickly, we won't be able to see the road clearly when it's too late."
Lin Yiyi came back to her senses and looked at Fang Nian, and when she withdrew her eyes, the vicious gaze in her eyes had not yet dissipated, which startled Fang Nian.
But soon, Lin Yiyi suppressed the ruthlessness in her eyes. Fang Nian said with concern, "Yiyi, you're fine."
Lin Yiyi's eyes were full of tears, and she looked at Fang Nian and said without sadness: "I treat you as a good sister, but just now I was bullied, and you didn't come to save me, I hate you so much."
After speaking, Lin Yiyi shook off Fang Nian's hand and ran away.
Fang Nian wanted to defend that it wasn't that she didn't save her, but that she fell out of the car so suddenly that she couldn't react at all.
By the time she and the driver came over, Lin Yiyi had been caught by two thieves and almost bullied.
She knew that even if she stepped forward, it would be useless, so she could only wait for the man and the girl to save her.
Can. Anyway, she was really a little timid just now and didn't step forward to save her personally.
Now that it was getting late, Fang Nian couldn't rest assured that Lin Yiyi, who ran away alone, and hurriedly chased after him.
In Lin Yiyi's heart, she and Fang Nian came out together, but now she is the only one who has been insulted, which makes it difficult for her to calm down.
Since they came out together, if Fang Nian really thought she was a good sister, she should share her difficulties. Saying so many useless words is nothing more than that she is not the one who is insulted.
After Fang Nian and Lin Yiyi left, those hooligans were hung upside down on the branches one by one, and their faces were red when the blood flowed back.
Seeing that the last two of them ran away, he panicked and said, "Don't go, put us down."
But no one heard their cries, and it was already evening, and those who were going home had already returned, and they were destined to hang there.
Unfortunately, on the second day, most of the people passing by were women or girls, and when they saw so many people hanging upside down there and looking fierce, let alone rescue them, they wished they could run faster than rabbits.
So until the afternoon of the second day, they did not meet a pedestrian crossing the road who could lower them.
Until another day passed, when Saburo was arranged by Fishy to do something, he saw these upside-down people hanging upside down when he passed by, and he threw a knife to cut these ropes.
The men were dizzy and slammed to the ground, their anger at its peak.
A few people scolded while untying the rope, "You bastard, you don't know how to light!"
"Lao Tzu's head is broken, see how I teach you!"
The people who had untied the rope stomped their numb feet and rushed towards Saburo with a roar.
San Lang looked incredulous, this group of things that reversed right and wrong, obviously he saved them, and now he not only scolded him, but also did it!
It's unreasonable!
San Lang angrily beat these people, and after beating them with blue noses and swollen faces, they were tied up again and hung in their original positions.
"It seems that you have been hung here for no reason, so just keep hanging, bye-bye!"
And after Jiang Zhiyue left, she asked Jiang Si to take her straight back to Long
Title Village.
In the next few days, Jiang Zhiyue cleared up, until the person sent by Ou Yangming arrived a few days later.
Because of the opening of this grain shop, it is equivalent to cutting off the financial route of many people, and even causing many people to lose money.
After all, due to the scarcity of grain, many grain merchants buy grain at low prices, hold all the grain in their hands, and then sell it to the people at a high price.
As soon as Jiang Zhiyue's grain shop opens, it will definitely stand on the opposite side of other large and small grain shops, and the shopkeeper and the little guy sent by Ou Yangming are all people who have retired from the battlefield, and their skills are not a problem.
After they came, they went directly to the bookstore in the town to find the shopkeeper of the bookstore, and asked him to pass the word on their behalf and tell Jiang Zhiyue that the people had arrived.
On the morning of the same day, Jiang Zhiyue received the letter, and after saying a word to her family, she went to the town to meet these people.
Before these people came, Ou Yangming had already carefully instructed them to treat Jiang Zhiyue like their Fei family.
These people were also obedient, and when they saw Jiang Zhiyue coming over, they greeted her respectfully, and they didn't look down on her at all because she was a woman.
"Subordinate Qin Jin has seen the girl." This person is slender, and he doesn't look like a military general, but he has the style of a literati.
"Subordinate Feng San (Feng Si) has seen the girl."
The two people who spoke later looked somewhat similar, and combined with the names of the two of them, they should be a pair of brothers. Jiang Zhiyue also greeted them, and her appearance of not being humble or arrogant made people look at her.
The shopkeeper of the bookstore is called Pan Wen, the last time Jiang Zhiyue took Ming Yuanqing to buy a book, the shopkeeper of the bookstore was still a little impressed because she was accosted, so when Jiang Zhiyue came to the bookstore with Ou Yangming's jade pendant, he was really startled.
I really didn't expect that the melon I ate that day would actually eat the person on the tip of his master's heart.
Now the book written by Jiang Zhiyue is still serialized, and the popularity is only increasing, plus the paper produced in the papermaking workshop established by Jiang Zhiyue is only sold in the Beilai Bookstore and another bookstore, and the Beilai Bookstore is now in full swing.
Shopkeeper Pan knew that the script and new paper were from Jiang Zhiyue's hands, and he admired her even more.
Shopkeeper Pan asked, "Has the girl had lunch?"
"Not yet."
Jiang Zhiyue came after receiving the letter, and she left lunch in a hurry.
"There's a new restaurant in the town, called Baiwei Building, and I've heard that the food there is good, so why don't I do it today, and invite the girl and the three new brothers to try it."
The shopkeeper of the bookstore called the little guy in the store, asked him to look at the store, and then took Jiang Zhiyue and the others to Baiwei Building.
……
After the meal, Shopkeeper Pan went back to the bookstore alone, and Jiang Zhiyue took Qin Jin and Feng San and Feng four brothers to the shop she bought.
"There is a courtyard behind this shop, where you three can live, and if you lack anything, buy it yourself, and I will give you some money later."
Jiang Zhiyue hired the three of them to work, and also negotiated with them about their monthly wages.
Jiang Zhiyue, who is connected to this small courtyard, does not plan to give them a place to live, anyway, a few rooms here are enough for them to live in.
Because Ou Yangming had already explained to them before he came, everything was under Jiang Zhiyue's command.
Seeing this empty shop, Qin Jin asked, "Girl, everything is ready now, but where should we get this food?"
Jiang Zhiyue handed the key to Qin Jin and said, "I will take you to a courtyard in a while, and on the fifteenth and last day of every month, I will have someone send the food there, and you will find someone to bring it to the shop."
Qin Jin asked again, "Do you still want the girl to tell me whether the price of this grain is based on the current price of grain in the market, or if the girl has other arrangements."
Jiang Zhiyue said lightly: "You can inquire about the price of grain by yourself, and try to keep the price as close as possible with last year's grain price."
In the past, she didn't tell Qin Jin and the others directly about the price of grain, but asked them to set their own prices after inquiry, if they couldn't even do this little thing, how could they use them with peace of mind.
But Qin Jin was taken aback when he heard Jiang Zhiyue's words, it was the same as last year's grain price, and now the grain price is now
In the first half of last year, the price of grain was more than four times, and Miss Jiang wanted to bring down the price of grain by herself?
If the price of grain is lowered so much at once, they are not afraid that other grain merchants will come to their door to make trouble.
I'm afraid they won't have enough food.
After all, the price of their grain is so low that it will inevitably attract the attention of the people, and by that time, all the people will flock here to buy grain, and I am afraid that there will not be enough food.
"You don't have to worry about the food, if it is not enough in the early stage, go to the village to find me, and I will find someone to let my friend send it."
Qin Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Jiang Zhiyue said that the friend was so powerful, he was able to get so much grain to sell at a low price now, I was afraid that he would have to lose a lot.
Qin Jin crossed his hands and thought about it together and said, "I have a plan to talk about and listen to Miss Jiang."
Jiang Zhiyue motioned for him to speak.
Qin Jin said: "The girl's move has already offended many grain merchants, and in this case, no matter how much or little she offends, it is impossible to live in harmony anymore, so I think about it, I can trick them."
Jiang Zhiyue became interested and asked, "Oh? How to pit, tell me in detail."
Qin Jin looked like a female businessman and said, "It depends on whether the food in the girl's friend's hand can support it."
Jiang Zhiyue motioned to him but said that it was okay, as for the food, he didn't have to worry about it.
Qin Jin saw her like this, and treated her as if she was not short of food.
He said, "If there is a family with a lower price than theirs, those people will definitely try to buy our food at a low price and obstruct our business."
"We can first set the price of grain one or two percent lower than theirs, and let them buy our grain, and they will think that we don't have much grain, and after a few times, we will sell it to the people at the price we have set."
"If those grain merchants can't stabilize their mentality, they will inevitably find a way to sell the grain in their hands again, and we can arrange for people to buy it at a lower price, so that not only will they not lose the grain, but they can also make the difference."
Listening to Qin Jin's words, Jiang Zhiyue coughed lightly to hide the smile in her throat.
She had already imagined how those grain merchants would jump in anger after jumping into Qin Jin's trap.
She laughed, "Then I'll leave this matter to you, just do what you say."
