Chapter 879: Look around
Qin Fan walked into it slowly, looked around, and found that there was a large amount of grain placed here, and after a cursory sweep, there were at least more than ten thousand bags.
"All this bread is yours." Qin Fan grabbed a bag of grain casually and threw it to the sluggish housekeeper on the side.
"My lord, this is too much food." Steward Liu hurriedly excused himself.
Qin Fan pouted and said, "What? You look down on this prefectural order?"
"No, no, no, how dare the villain look down on the adult, the villain is just worried that the food will be snatched away by the government." Steward Liu hurriedly explained.
Qin Fan smiled and said, "Okay, since this county order said that it will be given to you, it will definitely be given to you."
"Thank you, Lord for the reward." After listening to Qin Fan's words, Steward Liu knelt on the ground excitedly.
Qin Fan waved his hand at him and said, "Okay, don't kowtow, quickly find a place, hide the grain, and then go buy the field."
"It's the adult, the villain will do it."
Steward Liu said that, he immediately got up from the ground, and then hurried to the backyard.
After Qin Fan saw Steward Liu going, he was ready to leave here.
After doing this, Qin Fan left Liu's house, returned to the military camp outside the city, and sent someone to send those silver tickets to the palace.
Qin Fan's approach not only shocked the imperial dining room, but even the ministers and civil and military officials in the palace were also very shocked.
The day after Qin Fan made the donation, he took Steward Liu to empty the granary of Liu's mansion, and the grain added up was almost enough for 100,000 people to eat for a few years.
But these are not important, the important thing is that Qin Fan finally gathered 500,000 catties of grain, which is a great merit.
Qin Fan's style made Steward Liu and others more sure that Qin Fan was a good official.
Next, Qin Fan handed over all the remaining silver tickets of Liu's Mansion to Steward Liu, and asked him to purchase the field as soon as possible, and he was going to accumulate grain and grass here.
Of course, the real reason why he hoarded grain and grass was not to fight against the Yellow Turban Army.
He wanted to take advantage of the Yellow Turban Army to break through Luoyang, and take advantage of the chaos to plunder the grain near Luoyang.
After receiving Qin Fan's order, Steward Liu did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent people out of the city to buy fields and prepare to hoard grain.
Qin Fan went directly to the most prosperous area in the city and began to look for business opportunities. z.br>
He first wrote the word "grain shop" on a plaque on the side of the street, and then sat down in front of the shop, with his legs crossed.
Not long after Qin Fan entered the store, several customers walked in.
They glanced at Qin Fan's outfit and were speechless, and one of the fat men wearing gold and silver said, "Little brother, our shop doesn't sell grain."
Several attendants around him also said, "To the little brother, our store doesn't sell grain, if we want to buy it, let's go to other stores."
Qin Fan understood what these people meant, these people were disgusted with the shabby clothes they wore and thought that Qin Fan was a liar.
Qin Fan said lightly, "You have misunderstood, I am the shopkeeper of this shop."
"I have invited you here today because I want to do business with you, and I promise to make you a lot of money, and if you want, we can share the profits."
"Are you really the shopkeeper?" The boss, who was dressed in gold and silver, looked at Qin Fan a few times with some confusion and said, "Are you sure you are the shopkeeper?"
Qin Fan smiled: "Hehe, of course I am the shopkeeper, but I am also the county magistrate of Wannian County."
"Oh, it turned out to be the Qin County Order." The fat shopkeeper laughed.
"But Xiao Lao'er still has a doubt, that is, I don't know what qualifications you have to represent the government? Is it by that decree?"
"Divine Decree?" After listening to the fat shopkeeper's words, Qin Fan couldn't help but wonder, he took out the holy decree and handed it to the fat shopkeeper.
After the fat shopkeeper took the decree, he read it carefully.
After a while, the fat shopkeeper said with a shocked face, "It's true, you really got that holy decree?"
Qin Fan said lightly, "When
It's true."
The fat shopkeeper took a deep breath and said, "Okay, if you are really sent by the government, then I will believe you, but I want to ask, is this holy decree really effective?"
Qin Fan nodded and said, "Naturally, it is valid, this holy decree was bought by me at a huge price, it is absolutely true, you can rest assured."
"Since that's the case, then I believe in the Qin County Order, what do you want us to do, just give the order." The fat shopkeeper said.
Qin Fan pointed to a stack of silver tickets on the table.
"These silver tickets are used for disaster relief, on the first day of every month, I hope you can transport this batch of grain to the county near Luoyang."
"Transporting food?"
The fat shopkeeper frowned slightly and hesitated, after all, this batch of grain is worth a lot of money.
If it is transported, it will definitely cost a lot of money, and if it is lost, it may cause him to go bankrupt.
Seeing that the fat shopkeeper hesitated, Qin Fan patted the fat shopkeeper on the shoulder and encouraged, "Don't worry, I have written down this account, and I will compensate you when the time comes."
Seeing Qin Fan say this, the fat shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, we're done with this business."
"yes, that's good." Qin Fan nodded and said, "You only need to follow this drawing and transport it to the various counties around Luoyang, and I will have people arrange for people to cooperate with you."
The fat shopkeeper nodded and said, "Okay, no problem."
Then Qin Fan chatted with him a few more words, then left the shop and walked towards another shop.
The owner of this shop is called Li Fugui, and after Qin Fan walked into their shop, he walked straight to Li Fugui.
"Little brother, do you need anything?" After seeing Qin Fan, Li Fugui had a warm smile on his face.
Qin Fan said, "Boss Li, I want to rent a warehouse, and I plan to build a grain reserve base, I wonder if you are interested in participating in the shares?"
Li Fugui shook his head and said, "This."
Before he could say his words, Qin Fan continued, "I have two million and eight thousand guan in my hand now, you only need to promise me one condition, and I will pay you one thousand."
After Li Fugui heard fourteen million guan, his eyes instantly widened and said, "One thousand?"
"Yes." Qin Fan nodded.
Li Fugui pondered for a moment and said, "Little brother, your news is too exciting, I need to think about it."
"No problem, I'll give you half a pillar of incense time to think about it, whether you agree or not, I will fulfill my promise."
"Well, you wait a moment, I'll ask someone." Li Fugui said that, then turned around and walked out of the store, he was obviously looking for other accomplices.
Qin Fan sat on the chair leisurely and drank tea, and waited for about ten minutes before Li Fugui walked in from outside.
As soon as he entered the house, he bowed his hand to Qin Fan and said, "I promise you, but we need to discuss this deal in detail."
