Chapter 892: Price

"Your Excellency, you're here."

Seeing Qin Fan, a guy hurriedly greeted him and greeted Qin Fan with a smile.

"Hmm."

Qin Fan nodded and asked, "What is the price of your food here?"

Hearing this, the fellow replied with a smile, "My lord, the current grain price in Wannian County is five cents per stone per catty of grain, and it is sold for six cents per catty of grain at the market price."

"It's so expensive." Qin Fan said in surprise, "Didn't you say that the price of grain in Wannian County is lower than that of other places? Why is it still a catty and six cents a stone, which is lower than other counties?"

The man smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, although our Wannian County is richer than other counties now, it is still a poor and remote country after all, so the price of food in our Wannian County is indeed lower than that of other counties."

Qin Fan thought for a moment and continued to ask, "Then if I buy grain from your grain store, do you have to sell it for three times the price?"

"No, my lord, if you want to buy it, it's at least twice the price."

"Twice the price, that's too expensive."

"No way, sir, the price of food in Wannian County is too expensive now."

Hearing this, Qin Fan thought for a moment, and then asked, "Then tell me, what is the price of grain in your Wannian County now?"

"Then you can go and inquire how many grain merchants are hoarding grain now."

The man listened, nodded, and then said, "Don't worry, my lord, I'll inquire now."

"Go ahead."

"Okay."

Soon the guy inquired clearly, and then said to Qin Fan, "My lord, according to the news I just heard, the price of grain in Wannian County has now been fried to one tael of silver and a bucket."

"A tael of silver and a bucket." After hearing this, Qin Fan's brows couldn't help frowning.

"Could it be that this 10,000-year-old county is a treasure trove? Why did food prices skyrocket?"

"No, no matter what, we must transport all the food."

Thinking of this, he turned to look at the shopkeeper: "How much grain do you have stored here?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper replied, "My lord, we have stored a total of 3,000 quintals of grain in the granary, a total of 1,500 stone rice, and a total of 8,000 catties."

"So many?"

After hearing this, Qin Fan couldn't help but gasp.

There are 8,000 catties of rice stored in the granary of this Wannian County.

Such a huge amount, if placed outside, can definitely make a small country crazy.

"How are you going to deliver this rice?" Qin Fan asked.

Hearing Qin Fan's words, the shopkeeper immediately said, "My lord, don't worry, we have someone in charge."

"In this case, you give me this list, and then I will send a few teams of men and horses to follow you and ensure that you will transport all the rice grains back to Wannian County."

Hearing Qin Fan's words, the shopkeeper was immediately moved to tears: "Thank you, sir."

He immediately took out a piece of paper, wrote down a string of names, and handed it to Qin Fan.

After Qin Fan read the name, he asked the shopkeeper to arrange it.

And Qin Fan came to the granary.

He took a closer look at the grain stored in the granary.

After seeing these grains, Qin Fan's brows couldn't help but furrow: "With so much grain, how can it be transported?"

"My lord, I've already found someone to do research, and I only need to find three ox carts to transport it."

"Oh, then you find me an ox cart, and you don't have to worry about the rest, I'll let you know when I'm arranged."

"Okay."

...

After Qin Fan finished talking with the shopkeeper, he left Wannian County and then returned to the inn.

After Qin Fan left, the shopkeeper immediately went to inform his relatives, and then arranged everything properly, just waiting for Qin Fan to send someone to pick it up.

When Qin Fan returned to the inn, it was already evening, and his stomach was grumbling with hunger, so he let the store be small

Second, serve the dish.

At the dinner table, Qin Fan and his buddies said while drinking.

"Shopkeeper, I heard that the price of grain in your Wannian County is higher than that in other counties, why is your business so hot?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "My lord, do you know that although the grain in this 10,000-year-old county town is a little more expensive, it is also much better than the grain in other counties."

"Oh?" Qin Fan asked with some doubts, "What's so good about the grain in this 10,000-year-old county?"

"The grain of this 10,000-year-old county town, the yield of each mu of rice field is about 700 stones." The shopkeeper said.

"This kind of grain with a scarce yield is generally purchased by nobles."

"Therefore, the food in our Wannian County will become extremely sought-after every day."

"I see, it seems that the food in Wannian County is indeed not simple." Qin Fan nodded and said.

"Isn't it? The grain of this 10,000-year-old county town is not only supplied to the imperial court, but also to shops and grain stores in various places."

The shopkeeper said, "So, our Wannian County is now a very profitable place."

"I see."

Qin Fan nodded, he didn't expect that the grain in this 10,000-year-old county town was really profitable.

Immediately, Qin Fan asked, "By the way, the shopkeeper, the price of grain in this 10,000-year-old county is so high now, aren't you afraid of losing money?"

"Haha." The shopkeeper laughed.

"Loss? The people of this 10,000-year-old county town are all wise people."

"They know that this grain was brought by you, so even if they lose money, they are willing to spend money to buy this food, anyway, it is the credit of the adults."

"And they also believe in your ability, my lord, as long as the food from our Wannian County arrives, they can relax the quota."

"That's good." Qin Fan nodded and said.

"However, do you people in Wannian County know where we got our food?"

"Don't worry, this adult." The shopkeeper said.

"The grain in our Wannian County was transported by yourself, my lord."

"In that case, then I'm relieved."

Qin Fan breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "But I still think that the grain in Wannian County is too expensive."

"My lord, the food in our Wannian County is much more expensive than the food in other counties, after all, Wannian County is close to the Imperial City, so the food here is more precious and more valuable."

"Moreover, the grain in our Wannian County is still exchanged for iron ore."

"Iron ore?"

Hearing this, Qin Fan was slightly stunned, and then his face became solemn.

Looking at Qin Fan's face, the shopkeeper hurriedly asked, "My lord, do you know about iron ore?"

Qin Fan shook his head: "I don't know."

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good if I don't know."

Afterwards, the shopkeeper continued to introduce food to Qin Fan.

"My lord, you now know what the price of grain is in our 10,000-year-old county, right?"

"Hmm." Qin Fan nodded.

"Well, I'll get you another shipment, but remember, my goods can only be shipped, not sold."
