- (Second update) "Mr. Shen, is something going to happen?"
After the cartloads of grain were transported back to Biyuxuan, King Li followed Shen Yue for a day. In the end, he couldn't hold back the question anymore.
"What do you think? If you are lucky, I suggest you leave Haizhou City."
"Then Master, can I leave now?"
Li Wangcai's answer was very neat. Shen Yue nodded, took out a banknote and threw it into Li Wangcai's hand.
"It's best to take the water route and walk overnight, but if you can't get out, come back. Biyuxuan is the safest place."
"Thank you, sir. I will not waste time or leak the news." Shen Yue smiled. He was not sure about the surrounding environment. The land route may have been blocked, but the waterway definitely still had a glimmer of hope.
============
Back at Biyu Xuan, Shen Yue asked someone to take down the Biyu Xuan signboard and replace it with the name Biyu Villa. Biyuxuan sounds like a place for girls, which really doesn't sound good.
When he walked into the house, he found that Li Aici, Shen Ruotong, Kong Xianglan and Kong Xiangyun were waiting inside the villa.
Xie Xiaofu was accompanying them and chatting.
Shen Ruotong is smart and capable, but doesn't talk much. Li Aici doesn't have much scheming, but acts upright. He is worthy of being a representative of the priests of the Dragon Girl Temple. As for Kong Xianglan, after these few days of contact, Shen Yue has long lost any hostility towards her.
To put it simply, this woman is too innocent or too soft-tempered, so she is helpless when she is caught between Shen Yue and her family.
As for Kong Xiangyun, Shen Yue doesn't care about this little girl. The eleven-year-old little loli has no future at all.
¡°I¡¯ve met four of you, but I don¡¯t know what you¡¯re doing?¡±
They had just gotten engaged, and before the banquet was even finished, Shen Yue went shopping. At the end of the day, he was so tired that he was about to fall apart.
"It's like this. My father asked me to bring some banknotes and asked Mr. Shen not to continue purchasing like this in the market."
¡°You don¡¯t want to purchase the banknote?¡±
"My father knows that Mr. Shen doesn't like to take advantage of others. These banknotes are the undelivered surplus from those merchants. In other words, Mr. Shen, you bought so much food today, it is enough. The rest can be I can¡¯t help but buy it.¡±
Having said this, Shen Yue also understood that today he was making a big purchase in the market, which made some people unable to sit still.
The blood sacrifice is still a few days away, but he is starting to disrupt social order now.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Yue took the banknote and glanced at it. It was sixty thousand taels, which was a bit more. In other words, today's grain is equal to what he bought for free, and the money was supplied by Ping Haihou.
"It's an extra thirty thousand taels. You two can take it back. Also, I want to tell Mr. Hou that I appreciate his kindness, but everyone has different behaviors. I will buy food tomorrow. I hope Mr. Hou will understand."
Shen Yue¡¯s words were very tactful, but his expression made Kong Xiangyun frown.
After spending 30,000 taels of silver, the food purchased was enough to feed thousands of people for ten years. Biyuxuan simply could not consume so much food. Perhaps the only possibility was that Shen Yue wanted to hoard it.
When a catastrophe occurs, the first thing that is in short supply is food. Shen Yue bought so much food, and when it is resold, he will make two or three times the profit.
But, how can this be done?
Kong Qingfeng originally wanted to come, but Kong Xianglan volunteered. She felt that no matter from which aspect, it was more flexible and convenient for a woman to come forward. Shen Yue, with his irreverent temper, would be in trouble if he got into trouble with Kong Qingfeng. .
But she was full of confidence, but she didn't expect that Shen Yue would directly put her in trouble.
"Mr. Shen, it really can't be done. If you continue like this, the price of food in the city will rise, and there might be trouble. Mr. Shen, if you are tight on money, the Kong family still has some."
"Mr. Shen, if you feel inconvenienced by the Kong family, the Dragon Girl Palace can issue a money order for you, and you can use it as you like within the city for up to one hundred thousand taels of silver."
The person who spoke was Li Aici. Dragon Girl Palace was the one who ran the bank, and if they took out one hundred thousand taels of silver at a time, Haizhou City¡¯s annual tax would only be this amount.
"Hahaha."
While the two women were talking, Shen Yue smiled. Although it was not a sneer, it made several women feel like they were looking at idiots.
In the past few days, Shen Yue's performance has made everyone understand that this guy has a very good brain.
" Could it be that why he rushed to buy food, didn't everyone figure it out?
"I just want to take this opportunity to tell Ping Haihou that the granary is not very safe. If there is an opportunity??, let the people purchase the food themselves. "
¡°Purchase it yourself and buy it home?¡±
Li Aici was confused by these words, and Xu Manhua, who was accompanying him, only smiled.
"Sister Manhua, tell me, tell me what Shen Yue wants to do. Many people say he wants to hoard."
Yes, even in Xie Xiaofu's eyes, Shen Yue is hoarding.
If you feel that the granary is unsafe, you can tell the Kong family to strengthen the defense, or give an order to let each civilian store some grain. Why go through such a roundabout way?
"Manhua, don't say anything, let them guess the riddles by themselves. Three idiots have been added to the list. They think Sister Xiaofu is very smart."
Shen Yue didn't care about the cannibalistic look of Xie Xiaofu who was sitting with him. He stretched out his hand to stop Xu Manhua's explanation. Unfortunately, Xu Manhua didn't have Shen Yue's bad taste and said: "In this world, many things need someone to push them." Most of the grain in Haizhou City is stored in granaries. Shen Yue believes that granaries are unsafe. If someone destroys them, whether it is a fire or other means, it will be difficult to guard against it. It is better to hide the grains in people's homes. In this way, even gods cannot destroy everything.
"However, even if the government orders people to store grain, there will definitely be people who say that the price of grain is too high, that it is not necessary, etc. The implementation of administrative measures requires time and reasons, and these things happen to be something we don't have.
In this case, Shen Yue decided to do it himself and do everyone a favor.
Think about it, at this time, some people are raiding the grain stores and buying grain at huge prices. At the same time, there are rumors in the market that there is a severe drought in the north and the price of grain is about to double. At the same time, someone saw that Shen Yue had mortgaged all his jewelry. In this case, what would ordinary people do? "
"Sister Manhua, how could I, an honest person like me, do such a thing? I just want to buy some food for storage. When people hear that food prices are going to rise, they naturally feel a little panicked, and some of them will flock to the food stores. When they buy food, they will find that the price of food has indeed risen or that they cannot buy it, and more people will panic. "
"Then, the government came forward to quell the rumors and said that there was enough food. But at this time, no one believed it, and some people even made trouble. In fact, this was just right. In an emergency, the government had a reason to open warehouses to sell grain and stabilize prices. At the same time, the news was released , each person has a daily purchase limit. Of course, this is just a means, and everyone will buy more food.¡±
Kong Xiangyun who spoke next, with Xu Manhua¡¯s tips, she quickly understood the reason.
"The government can even say that it will only release grain for three to five days. In this way, even the most calm person will buy some grain from the official warehouse and go home to store it. Even if he doesn't do it, his wife and children will give orders He buys grain.
In this way, the government can distribute the grain in the warehouse without spending a tael of silver, and even make a lot of money. As for the Pox Goddess and her group, even if they burn down the granary, at least the consequences will not be that serious. "
Li Aici was not an idiot, she continued with a smile.
"Yes, we are all stupid, but I lost my money. Do you think I am pitiful?"
Shen Yue picked up the tea cup and smiled, "None of you understand me, and you actually think that I am a profiteer who hoards money. Don't you think about it, something really happened in Haizhou City. I am afraid that I will be the first to collect grain in such a big way. I am the one who is being stabbed. Is there anyone in the world who is more unjust than me?
"Mr. Shen, why are you doing this? You have suffered a bad reputation and lost money. There is really no need. You can make it clear to my father and ask for another method of operation."
It was Kong Xianglan who spoke, but after she finished speaking, she found Shen Yue looking at her as if he were a fool.
What did you say, and was it wrong?
"aunt¡¡"
Kong Xiangyun gently pulled Kong Xianglan's sleeve, signaling her not to continue talking. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
