Chapter 866: Selling Grain

In the afternoon of the same day, Ren Baqian saw Qinglian again in the palace.

"I've seen Your Highness. Qinglian stepped forward and saluted.

"Well, acquaintance, let's talk about it. Ren 8,000 foreheads, and then chuckled. "I heard that there were hundreds of cars when you entered the city, and you are here to pay back?"

"Your Highness is right, this trip is to repay the money, and the agreement between Su Gong and His Royal Highness, Su Gong has never forgotten it. Qinglian said. "But in addition to paying back the money, there is one more thing to ask His Highness for help, which is easy for His Highness. ”

"Let's talk about it first!" Ren Baqian had actually guessed in his heart since he knew about Qing Lian's team last night.

Although he didn't know much about the situation in Suqing in the north, he could guess a thing or two.

At the time of the Suqing Uprising, the people of many provinces (Daxia was divided into prefectures) were already struggling to make a living.

Su Qing swept through millions of refugees, and the two sides fought fiercely, affecting more than just millions of people.

Vast areas of the population have been displaced, trapped in the reins, or in a hurry to flee for their lives. This discipline of the peasant rebel army is entirely conceivable, and it passes like locusts crossing the border.

Who will farm in this case?

If there is no one to farm, then you must buy food.

"Your Highness, this time, in addition to repaying part of the remuneration agreed with Your Highness, we also want to buy some food. Qing Lian said respectfully.

"Hehe, hehehe!" Ren Baqian smiled happily, and the incomprehensible laughter echoed throughout the hall. "Come to Dayao to buy food...... It's a shame you can figure it out!"

Dayao has been short of food for 10,000 years, and the grain imported every year also accounts for a large proportion.

Of course, this was two years ago.

"Your Highness, let's not mention that Izumo has now been occupied by Da Yao, and Da Yao himself alone is no longer short of food, and even rich. If Your Highness can lend a helping hand at this time, we are grateful. Moreover, if we are defeated, Your Highness will not do us any good. If we and the Great Xia Imperial Court continue to stalemate like this, this is what His Highness wants to see the most!" Qinglian straightened up and said slowly, not in a hurry, with a kind of confidence in her voice, which was confidence in her own cognition.

She believes that what she says is what Ren Baqian thinks.

"Great Xia...... To be honest, Xia Baiworm is dead, and I don't have any opinion on Great Xia. By the way, do you think I care about Great Xia?" Ren Baqian smiled and said. "I don't care who wins or loses, whether you're on one side or who you are. ”

"I believe Your Highness's words. If you master Izumo, you will have the lifeblood of your throat, and whether it is salt, food, or weapons, you can no longer restrain Daiyao. And the warrior itself is Da Yao's strong point. Coupled with the wisdom of His Royal Highness, Da Yao has no shortcomings. ”

"Maybe they're fighting for it, and they're just fighting for the right to rule that land for decades. ”

Qinglian said in a soft voice, raising her head and staring at Ren Baqian without blinking.

"I'm not interested in that land!" Ren Baqian shook his head, this is true, he really has no interest in that land. It is not so easy to overcome, occupy, conquer, and dominate a country.

Who does it knows.

If it weren't for the bald head, Ren Baqian would feel like he would have to grow gray hair, and this would just be an Izumo.

In fact, this area is enough for him to play now.

Dayo plus Izumo is equivalent to three-fifths of the territory of China, and it can be regarded as a superpower on the earth.

The endless treasures of the 60,000 mountains and the minerals of Izumo are waiting to be developed by themselves.

There is no need to forcibly occupy another piece of land, and in the face of many hostilities, every day there is a headache to exterminate the rebels and pacify the people.

In fact, Ren Baqian would like to see Da Yao's high-rise buildings, cars, trains, ships, and airplanes, and the feudal society outside the national border, this stark contrast will be interesting.

Qinglian saw that Ren Baqian's words were true, but she also understood that people would change. Just because the other party is not interested now does not mean that they will not be interested in the future.

"In any case, a regime that has a friendship with Da Yao will always have no harm, and it will be able to give His Highness a lot less trouble in the future. Qinglian smiled on her face, her estimation of the success of her trip was a ninety percent success rate.

So no matter what Ren Baqian says, she won't be worried.

However, Ren Baqian didn't intend to hang her appetite, he was ready to agree to the other party.

The yield of those high-yielding crops is too high, jumping from three or four hundred catties per mu of local crops to three or four thousand catties per mu, or even six or seven thousand catties, and there are two seasons a year.

It is estimated that after the harvest in two months, the price of sweet potatoes will fall to five cents and three catties.

Recently, he is preparing to promote cellars and saltpeter ice for storing these crops. At the same time, we are also sorting out the production process of sweet potato wine, sweet potato starch, potato starch, and vermicelli.

If you can sell a batch, you can reduce a lot of pressure.

After the harvest in two months, the rainy season is followed by a small half year to prepare slowly.

"Let's get down to business, how much silver do you bring and how many catties of grain do you want to buy?" asked Ren Baqian.

Hearing Ren Baqian's words, Qinglian was not surprised at all: "Your Highness, we have brought a total of fifteen million taels worth of gold and silver and jewels this time, of which 10 million is 10% of the part agreed between Su Gong and the adult, and 5 million taels of gold and silver are used to buy sweet potatoes, potatoes, and pumpkins. ”

Ren Baqian calculated in his heart, according to the current market price, sweet potatoes are three wen per catty, thirty wen per bucket, and three hundred wen per stone. However, selling to them must not be calculated according to a catty of three wen, first of all, the market price will be affected, and many of them have to be sent from other places, plus the travel fee, at least according to a catty of six wen.

Moreover, after they buy a large number of these high-yield crops, they will be able to bear fruit in the areas occupied by Suqing from the second half of this year to next year.

Anyway, this is also what they brought back from the earth, did they pay the copyright fee?

This is still a sweet potato, and the price of potatoes and pumpkin is even higher.

Ren Baqian silently calculated for a moment before raising his head and said: "I can sell you 1 million stone sweet potatoes, 500,000 stone potatoes and 500,000 stone pumpkins and 150,000 horned cows, and send someone to help you send them to Pingcheng, which will be delivered in five months, and you will have to pay an extra 2 million taels." ”

The price is equivalent to seven times the current market price, but the price cannot be calculated according to the market price, two million stones is 100,000 tons, in this era, it is simply a frenzied transportation volume.

With the current muddy road, an ox cart is generally about half a ton, according to the calculation of one month round-trip, five round-trips also need 40,000 ox carts, 20,000 escorts, during the period of grain loss is not a small number.

"Thank you, Your Highness. Qinglian smiled slightly, and there was no meaning of counter-offering.

In fact, being able to buy so much food here is already a success, and as for the price, that is the last thing to worry about.

Many times it's not that the more you buy, the cheaper, but the more you buy, the more expensive it gets!

Not to mention, they had nowhere else to buy food except for Da Yao. Ren Baqian sold them at this price is already a conscience, and it is also intimately delivered to Pingcheng.

Of course, the harvest is not small, seven million taels is higher than the previous annual income of the Dayao treasury.

And this is the first time that a large amount of currency has been repatriated, in addition to the robbery.

After negotiating the matter, Ren Baqian can finally ask the questions he wants to ask.

In his opinion, it is much more important than these grains!
