Chapter 22 Borrow, a thousand hundred!
"Oh? Why don't you take a look? ”
"Erchen, I want to borrow food!"
Liu Qi's voice was very soft.
It's just that as soon as these words came out, there was indeed a discussion around them.
Liu Qi was not in a hurry, just stood there quietly.
"Hmm!"
Liu Biao nodded: "If you want to build a new Anmin City, the food, grass and property you need are naturally not enough!" ”
"How much do you need?"
Liu Biao spoke again.
"Ten thousand!"
Liu Qi spoke again.
The one here is about one hundred and fifty catties. 10,000 Hu is 1.5 million catties. This is enough to solve all the problems that Jiangxia is encountering today.
It's just that Liu Qi didn't think that Liu Biao would really give it.
Maybe he can really get it.
However, if it is really taken out, even Xiangyang will be poor.
"This must not happen!"
At this time, Kuai Yue walked out and hurriedly said: "Lord, although there is so much grain in the land of Jingzhou. But if all of them are given to Qi Gongzi, then in the four places of Jingzhou, I am afraid that countless people will starve to death! ”
Liu Qi slowly took a step forward.
looked at Kuai Yue and said lightly: "I'm just borrowing food, not asking for food." By this day next year, all the borrowed grain will be returned with a certain amount of interest! ”
"This is just one side of the word of Qi Gongzi!"
Kuai Yue was unmoved, shook his head and said, "What guarantee does Gongzi Qi have to pay back the grain next year?" ”
"If I'm not mistaken, Jiangxia still owes a lot of grain now, right?"
Liu Qi just stood there quietly, neither humble nor arrogant!
"Yes, but none of this is my debt. However, I will still pay back all the food owed by the land of Jiangxia! Liu Qi looked at Kuai Yue, and then continued: "It's just that I need to get through the moment, so I want to borrow food from my father!" ”
"Alright, alright......"
Liu Biao waved his hand helplessly.
Then he continued, "You two don't have to quarrel either. Qi'er, my father has no objection to borrowing grain. After all, you build a new city and accept displaced people, which is also a good deed, which is beneficial to the world and beneficial to Jingzhou. However, even if you kill your father, you can't afford to give it to your father......"
After saying that, he laughed out loud.
"Father, how much can you give?"
That's what Liu Qi was waiting for.
So, if you want to open a window, other people may not agree, but if you tell them that they want to lift the roof, they will agree to let you open a window!
That's the trick.
"A thousand hundred!"
"The father can lend Jiangxia a thousand hues of grain to ensure Jiangxia's daily needs. In addition, I will lend Jiangxia stone and wood to help you build a new city, how about it? ”
"However, these are also going to be returned next year!"
When Liu Qi heard this, his brows furrowed slightly.
stone, wood, etc.
It is also what is lacking in the new city today. It's south, and it's on the plains. Timber resources are still relatively scarce, especially some tall trees, which are all dependent on procurement.
"It's good!"
After Liu Qi pondered for a moment, he nodded: "Then it is dependent on what it says!" ”
"Slow down!"
At this time, Cai Mao walked out and said with a smile: "Young Master Qi, the lord borrowed this grain happily, but should we also calculate this interest?" ”
“……”
For a while, whether it was Liu Biao or Liu Qi.
The complexion looked a little ugly.
Cai Mao saluted Liu Biao: "Lord, it's not that I don't believe in the son, it's really too big." ”
"You still need to make the details clear first, and when the time comes, you will pass the buck to each other!"
"What does Childe think?"
Saying this, Cai Mao turned around and glanced at Liu Qi gloomily.
Liu Qi was silent for a moment.
Then he nodded slightly and said, "This matter is naturally as it should be!" Since it is a grain loan, then the interest should also be calculated. In a year's time, 1,000 husks of grain, and today next year, I will pay back 1,100 hus, how about it? ”
"Hiss......"
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
Each other, head to ear.
They can feel the confidence in Liu Qi, but they don't know where this confidence comes from.
"Childe, are you sure?"
"Naturally, I am sure!"
Liu Qi nodded, and then continued: "Borrow a thousand, pay back a thousand!" ”
"As for the rest of the wood, stone, etc." Liu Qi spoke again and said: "Today next year, it will still be calculated according to this proportion of interest. If there is no wood or stone, it will be deducted from the price of grain! ”
"How?"
Liu Qi paused for a moment and looked at Cai Maodao.
Cai Mao nodded: "This is naturally no problem, but if it is time, Qi Gongzi will not be on it?" And how? ”
"That's it!"
At this time, Liu Biao shook his head and said: "Cai Mao, it's better to talk about such things in private!" ”
"Lord, since Gongzi Qi has already put it forward, we might as well finalize all the details, so as not to make any mistakes when we get it!" Cai Mao said with a smile.
