Chapter 207: The Problem of Food
Grain is different from other prices, if some ceramics and other items can still be stored.
If the grain is left for a long time, it will become damp and rot, so that it will become unbought.
Hearing that the housekeeper was so worried, Zhao Tianhe said in great disappointment.
"What should I do?"
"Send someone to collect them all."
The housekeeper on the side was quite surprised when he heard this.
I can't sell all my own grain, and I still have to buy grain from the government?
Isn't that shooting yourself in the foot?
In his doubts, he was just about to ask out loud when he was glared back by Zhao Tianhe.
He knew very well that if he talked too much, things would be in trouble, so he bent down and saluted, and then walked away quickly.
The same situation is happening in the rest of the major trading houses.
Everyone sent people to buy all the grain from the government.
Just when everyone thought it was the end of the matter.
On the second day, the government once again took out a large amount of grain and continued to sell it at a low price.
Such a move made the housekeeper of the Zhao family firm extremely worried.
Zhao Da was adopted by the Zhao family since he was a child, and because of his honest and honest personality, he was trained as a housekeeper since he was a child.
is extremely loyal to the Zhao family, and the government's behavior is obviously against the Zhao family, which makes him extremely worried.
He hurried to the Zhao family's mansion with a worried expression.
"Master, master, something is wrong."
"Another batch of affordable grain has appeared."
"Look?"
Hearing this, Zhao Tianhe pushed away the maid beside him, looking a little puzzled.
Where did the government get so much food?
Yesterday, everyone bought more than 100,000 stones of grain, which was enough for the people of Qingshan County to consume for a month.
Now that the government has opened a warehouse to release grain again, is this to block the back road of their Zhao family?
After thinking about it, Zhao Tianhe suddenly said.
"Go, continue to send someone to buy."
"I'm going to see how much food he has."
Zhao Da looked a little worried, he was afraid that this was some conspiracy of the government.
More than 100,000 stone of grain is enough for the people of Qingshan County to consume for a month.
Now he has taken out more than 100,000 stone of grain, is this to support the Zhao family?
Although he was worried in his heart, since Zhao Tianhe spoke, he could only listen.
As for whether the consequences are good or bad, he has no right to influence.
As the grain from all over the country was purchased by the family, in Kyoto, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen also gathered in the mansion.
Liu Bowen sent a document with a somewhat unhappy expression.
"Millions of stone grains have been released from all over the country, and all of them have been purchased by the Maison."
"It's been so crazy for just one day, do you want to continue?"
Zhuge Liang didn't raise his head, and said neatly.
"Go on, why not."
"There are still 80 million stones in the grain store, let the family buy it."
"Let 10 million stones be scattered everywhere today, and continue to let the family buy them."
Zhuge Liang is familiar with border grain storage and is extremely familiar with Tianlong rice seeds.
He knew very well that as long as the next batch of Tianlong rice seeds matured, not to mention 80 million stones, even if it was doubled, it would be enough to consume.
Therefore, he is extremely disdainful of the family's methods.
With the decree issued by Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen, commercial banks across the country opened their warehouses again, and the grain sold also increased several times.
For a time, the children of the family all over the country were also extremely surprised.
In Qingshan County, Zhao Tianhe looked at the news sent by the housekeeper and frowned.
He didn't expect that this trading house still had grain in stock.
Not only that, but the grain released by the government has also doubled from 100,000 stone to 200,000 stone.
Such a move made Zhao Tianhe a little puzzled, and he couldn't guess the purpose of the government for a while.
Knowing that their family is buying grain, they still want to continue to sell it at a low price, is this looking down on their family's purchasing power?
Or is there some conspiracy that doesn't work out?
After thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn't think of any conspiracy in this.
On the contrary, the Zhao family has already sent someone to bring the news.
No matter how much grain the government releases, it must buy all of it, and not let go of a stone of grain.
In desperation, he could only ask the housekeeper to continue to send people to buy grain.
As the families in various places began to purchase grain, the government released another 500,000 stone of grain on the third day.
This time, the major families in Qingshan County couldn't sit still.
Everyone rushed to Zhao's house one after another, wanting to ask Zhao Tianhe's opinion.
In the Zhao family's mansion, three richly dressed people were waiting in the living room.
The three of them sat there with trepidation, they were all trading houses in Qingshan County.
Previously, everyone received the news from the Zhao family and sent people to buy grain.
In the past two days, everyone was able to buy grain in a good way.
Today, the three of them were a little flustered, the reason was extremely simple, the government released a full 500,000 stone of grain.
Looking at Zhao Tianhe's figure, Chen Shan hurriedly got up and asked in a somewhat panicked voice.
"Zhao family master, you give a quasi-letter, do you still want to buy it?"
"Today, 500,000 stone of grain has been released, which is enough for the people of Qingshan County to consume for half a year."
"If we buy them all, it will be enough to wait until the next batch of grain is ripe."
"Is there some conspiracy in this?"
The other two also got up one after another, looking at Zhao Tianhe with great expectation.
They wanted to get some useful information from the latter.
500,000 stone grain is not a small amount.
This also needs to be considered and weighed by everyone, once these grains are stopped in their hands, everyone will be considered to have lost all their money.
Looking at the extremely worried expressions of the three of them, Zhao Tianhe picked up the teacup very leisurely, took a sip gently, and then put the teacup down with a smile and said indifferently.
"What are you worried about?"
"Could it be that my Zhao family will still pit you?"
The three people on the side were all hurriedly waving their hands, they were just local trading houses in Qingshan County.
The Zhao family is one of the four great families of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they can pinch everyone to death with just one finger, so they naturally dare not offend Zhao Tianhe.
Chen Shan saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and hurriedly stood up and played a round.
"Brother Zhao, don't be angry."
"Everyone is also quite worried, so they say a few more words."
"Since Brother Zhao said so, let's do it, and we do it."
Seeing this, the remaining two also nodded in agreement, Chen Shan found a step for everyone, and they went down directly.
Once the Zhao family is offended to death, it is still a question whether everyone can stay in Qingshan County.
Seeing the attitude of the three of them, Zhao Tianhe nodded with satisfaction.
If it weren't for the government's restrictions on the number of purchases, where would he still need the help of these merchants.
Asking everyone to assist the Zhao family is to give them face, and now they dare to come to the house to ask themselves.
Is it really good to talk when he Zhao Tianhe?
Seeing that Zhao Tianhe stopped talking, the three of them hurriedly left after apologizing.
Walking out of the Zhao Mansion, the remaining two walked to Chen Shan's side and asked with an extremely worried expression.
"With so much grain, can you sell it with all the money you buy?"
"There are only so many people in Qingshan County."
Chen Shan stretched out his hand to block the mouths of the two and walked quickly to the carriage.
"Qingshan County can't sell it out, so the Zhao family will naturally ship it to other places to sell."
"Could it be that you are still worried that the Zhao family will not be able to sell these grains?"
These words made the rest of them feel relieved.
Behind Zhao Tianhe is the Zhao family, one of the four great families of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
With their help, everyone is naturally not worried that these grains will not be sold.
Previously, Zhao Tianhe had promised everyone that these grains would be purchased at a low price, and then sold at a double price.
