After Lin Shan left, the grain merchants on the wharf still gathered together, and some of them were angry, and said angrily, "Let's go, let's find another ship to help us transport the grain back!" "It's not just the Cao Gang that has boats.

"Yes, my Lao Li doesn't believe it, without him Zhang Butcher, we still have to eat hairy pigs!"

"That's right, it's a big deal, let's go back by land!"

"No, I have too much food for the boat to handle."

It's even more ridiculous to say that you go back by land. The consumption along the way, the short-distance can barely be considered, and the distance is ridiculously large. And no matter how far or near you are, you have to consider the bandits along the way.

This doesn't work, that doesn't work, do they really admit it this time?

On the dock, there is still a lot of noise.

Grain merchants everywhere were blown up like headless flies by the news that Ji's branch was selling cheap grain in large quantities.

At this time, the grain merchants of Qingzhou also gathered together, and there were about a dozen grain merchants of all sizes.

"You say, have we been tricked?" Someone reminisced.

As soon as they were reminded, the grain merchants in Qingzhou remembered that they had thought about it precisely because of the large-scale grain transportation of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce and the fact that Nanyang had the highest grain price in the country.

Now that I think about it, Wu Ren and the others acted a bit deliberately.

Someone said with an ugly face, "We were pitted by the Ji family!" ”

Someone thinks it's wrong, "Wait." The grain was transported to sell, not the Ji family, but the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, right? Moreover, the price of grain in Nanyang was raised by the Yuzhou Grain Merchants Chamber of Commerce, right? ”

Someone said weakly, "Indeed, the Ji family sells grain at such a low price, and the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce may not know, is it possible that the shopkeeper Wu was also pitted?" ”

Some people also disagree with their statement, "Who doesn't know that the Ji family has invested a lot of money in Liaodong County, and the people in Liaodong County are as good as wearing the same pants." I don't believe Wu Ren didn't know about Ji Wuyin's approach. ”

Some people can't get used to their practice of blaming others when they encounter problems, "Who is going to force you with a knife to do this?" ”

Someone chimed in, "yes, what's the matter?" It wasn't Ji Wuyin who forced us to come. ”

These were the more sensible ones, and Towson was one of them, although they weren't in a good mood these days.

Someone stiffened his neck and said, "Ji Changnian and Wu Ren are suspected of being seduced, this is always right, right?" "Ji Changnian is Ji Dashao's name.

Those who say these things are more impulsive.

Tao Xun rolled his eyes, "Hmph, if it weren't for this incident, we made money, would you divide the family?" ”

The man he questioned had a flickering gaze and was silent.

Tao Xun didn't bother to squeeze him again,

Buying and selling, profit and loss at your own risk.

Merchants seek profit, and they smell and go.

In today's situation, it can only be said that they are not thoughtful and well-informed, and they don't know that the Ji family and the Yuzhou Grain Merchants Chamber of Commerce are fighting.

So that they who transported grain to Nanyang were like the fish in the pond that were affected.

"Shopkeeper Tao, what do you think we should do next?" Someone asked Tao Xun.

Everyone looked at him.

Tao Xun is still more convincing in Qingzhou grain merchants. This will ask him for ideas, which is quite a meaning to let him take the lead.

At this time, Tao Xun also took the lead, and said after a moment's silence, "I want to visit Ji Daxiu." ”

"I'll go with you."

"I'll go too."

"Pick two or three people to go with me, and the rest of the people, it's better to rent a place to store the grain while everyone doesn't react. It's late, I'm afraid I'm going to be on the ground again. ”

They are also merchants, and they know all too well the tricks between businessmen.

So, at Tao Xun's suggestion, they split into two ways. The group went to the branch of the Ji Chamber of Commerce, and the rest were busy renting warehouses.

"Why do you have to rent a warehouse?" The rest of the Qingzhou grain merchants sighed one by one, they thought that if they brought the grain, they would be able to directly sell the grain at a high price, and the transaction would be done.

In front of the gate of the Luoyang branch of the Ji Chamber of Commerce, there was a crowd of people, and thirty teams lined up like a long dragon.

"Everyone line up, don't grab it, don't squeeze, everyone rest assured, there is enough affordable food!"

This was the first day they sold cheap grain, and Ji Dashao personally went to the scene to sit down.

"You can't cut in line, you can't coerce others to give way by force, you can't have immoral behavior, otherwise, once you find out, you won't buy food!"

Because of Ji's tough attitude and the scene of buying grain, Ji dispatched a lot of guards to maintain order, and everyone lined up honestly.

Everyone was carrying baskets, baskets, or sacks, looking anxiously ahead.

When some people were buying grain, they asked Ji Dashao, "Ji Shaodong, can we buy more of this grain?" ”

They made relevant registrations, and each household could only buy five catties of grain, which they felt was too little.

Ji Changnian said, "You don't need to buy more, don't worry, we have prepared a lot of food, and it will be enough for everyone in the next half year." ”

Those who bought grain, and those who didn't, saw that every time the grain in front of them was sold out, there were people from Ji's firm who constantly carried sacks of grain to replenish the stock, which was really like what Ji Shao's owner said about the grain pipe.

Most of the people's hearts were immediately at ease.

The people in line also had the mind to make small talk.

"Ji's firm is really a conscientious businessman."

"Yes, this grain price is the price of the good year."

Of course, when the year is good, the grain merchants come to collect grain, and the price they give is not high, and a bucket can give the people 90 wen and 100 wen. If you sell it, you will sell it for 110 wen and 120 wen a bucket.

"Isn't it? Our family can't open the pot at all. My old man said, if it doesn't work, it's a high-priced grain of 280 yuan, and we have to buy some of it. ”

Master Zhang Xianzhang said that the food for the imperial court disaster relief has been used up, and they will have to rely on themselves next.

"I only hope that Ji's firm will always have affordable grain to sell, preferably until the middle of next year."

"Yes, it will be good when the food comes down in the middle of next year."

In this incomparably harmonious atmosphere of conversation, an extremely harsh voice suddenly came out, "This grain is sold so cheaply, there won't be any problems, right?" ”

Li Si saw that everyone stopped talking, and looked at him together, and even some of the ladies looked him up and down, their eyes were very crazy, and his heart was furious.

"Sisters, up!"

"Bah, I'll kill you bad seed!"

"I've seen it all, what Ji's branch sells, although it is not this year's new grain, but it is definitely not bad."

"I don't know what kind of heart you have for these words said by your turtle grandson?"

"You slander the Ji family like this, you can't die a good death!"

"That is, are you deliberately trying to provoke the Ji family?"

Conscientious businessmen like Ji's, they don't want to be offended, if Ji's is angry and doesn't sell cheap grain, won't they have to be forced to buy high-priced grain?

In the face of troublemakers, they don't need Ji's to make a move, and the people can tear people apart. What's more, several men worked together to arrest Li Si and twist him directly to Ji Dashao.

Ji Dashao smiled, "Take care of people!" ”
