The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1093 Sell it!sold, all sold

"But there is not much rice in the granary. If it is really sold out, what will happen to the food for the victims?"

Ding Shi hesitated to speak, and really wanted to persuade his adults not to sell it, so save it!
"The time has not come yet, wait two more days." The Xia family has not moved yet, and now they have to sell.When the price of grain falls again, the grain will be bought back and filled into the granary.

"A lot of people have already lined up to buy rice at the home rice store. There is no one in front of the corner gate of our house."

Gu Chengyu nodded knowingly, "Wait tomorrow, if there is still no movement from the Xia family, we will also reduce the price, and it will be nine cents a catty."

As soon as Gu Chengyu finished speaking, Ding Shi was dumbfounded.

"My lord! We also sell nine cents a catty? That's really a loss." Ding Shi wanted to cry, but his family is really not in charge of the family.

Gu Chengyu shook his head, "It's only a small amount of money. If you lose money, you will lose money. If we want them to release all the grain quickly, we have to pay a price. Don't worry! The grain in the granary will be replenished in two days !"

"Master! Both the Ju family and the Jiang family are selling rice, shall we also sell rice?" A follower hurried into the study, his tone full of urgency.

"What? How much do they sell for a catty?" Patriarch Xia said with a sullen face. This family was not at peace with their Xia clan.Master Ju has a bad temper, and even more stubborn.

Moreover, this person is still very petty, I don't know how he would collect food in a big way this time, with Ju Haoming's courage, he can't do this at all.

This person was ignorant last time and did not sell food to himself, and now he is doing stupid things again.

"Jijia's price is nine coins a catty, and Jiang's is ten. Today, the door of the rice shop in Jujia is surrounded by people, and they all go to buy rice."

The entourage told Patriarch Xia about the grand occasion of selling rice at home, and asked Patriarch Xia what he meant.

"Sir, are we going to start selling rice? If we don't sell it, the millet will germinate. These two families have a lot of food, and those people are not short of food. Even if we don't sell it, it will be enough for them." It's no longer a threat."

Patriarch Xia pondered for a moment, not reconciled!How many states and counties did he travel to in order to hoard food?
And the final price of purchasing grain is far more than ten yuan, or even several times.If they were all sold at nine or ten coins, wouldn't he be at a loss?

"Is the yamen still selling rice?" Gu Chengyu was selling at a loss before, but now Jujia and Jiang's have started selling grain, so Gu Chengyu has achieved his goal, and he will definitely not sell it now.

"The villain asked someone to inquire about the wind, and said that Mr. Gu's entourage bought a lot of rice this time. If there is no business today, the rice must be thrown into their hands. And they are still in other places Tens of thousands of stones have been ordered, and they will be sent to Yingnan Mansion and Hangtian Mansion in batches in a few days. The villain seems to have plans to sell at a lower price after listening to them."

The entourage reported the information they had inquired to Patriarch Xia. Anyway, he felt that if he didn't sell the grain anymore, he might not be able to sell even nine cents a catty later.

Patriarch Xia was shocked when he heard the words. He didn't expect Gu Chengyu to buy so much food. Where did he get the money?Could it be that all the money for disaster relief was used by him to buy food?

Maybe Gu Chengyu didn't expect that Jujia and Jiang's would sell grain at this time. The previous grain had already been bought, and now it was too late to regret it.

The current Yingnan Mansion is really not short of food. Seeing that the food is so cheap, the common people will definitely store up food.

For a long time, the people did not worry about having no food to eat.What about the grain in his warehouse?Among them, brown rice and millet each accounted for half.

At the beginning of the village, the price of food remained high.If they don't sell it now, the price will be lowered even more in the future, and their Xia family will really lose their money.

But what if Gu Chengyu is playing tricks?This is not impossible!If this was a trick, wouldn't they follow Gu Chengyu's way?
Patriarch Xia thought about it, but couldn't make up his mind, "Wait! Wait!"

But within a day, Patriarch Xia couldn't sit still.

"You said the Yamen really lowered the price?" Patriarch Xia suddenly raised his voice, looking very surprised.

"That's right! It's also sold at nine cents a catty. Now those common people are hoarding food like they don't want money. Even the Jiang family has lowered the price. They sold it for nine cents a catty in the morning."

Patriarch Xia was so anxious that he walked around the house. If he sold it, he would lose money.Later, he stored up a lot of high-priced food.Don't sell it!With so much food on hand, wouldn't it be a bigger loss?
Just when Patriarch Xia was in a dilemma, a steward trotted into the house, "Master, the Jiang family has lowered the price again. Now it is eight cents a catty of brown rice. Seven cents a liter of millet."

Patriarch Xia was so angry that his hands trembled, "These people are too impatient, mother!"

"Master! Let's sell it too! If we don't sell it, the price of grain will drop even more. If we lose five or six yuan by then, wouldn't we have to pay for it?"

The manager's face is full of anxiety. Now that he sells grain, he can get back most of the money at least, as long as he loses less money.For the Xia family, it is impossible to hurt a tendon or move a thigh.

But the person in charge was afraid that his master would take advantage of the dead end and refused to sell the grain.

When the new grain comes out next year, no one will want the old grain.Unless it's a few pennies cheaper than the new grain, isn't that a loss?
No matter how you calculate, you will lose money, so it is better to minimize the loss.

"Sell it! Sell it, sell it all!" Patriarch Xia took a deep breath, with an extremely listless expression on his face.

He is distressed!Seeing so much money slip through my fingers, it hurts like a knife!

Blame these idiots, can't we just wait?After Gu Chengyu used all the silver to buy grain, let's see what else he can buy grain with.

In Jiang's ancestral house, Jiang Shouren sighed as he looked at the account book in his hand.

In the past two days, the price of Jiang's grain has been reduced, and the people are crazy, and the whole family has come to line up to buy grain.

He understood that it was all because of hunger and fear.As long as they start to buy grain, they will stockpile it, and they will not stop until there is enough food for next year.

In just two days, his rice warehouse was half empty.Although the money can be returned to the capital quickly, there is no profit at all except the capital.

He didn't understand why the master wanted him to sell the grain at a low price now, since the master knew that most of the grain brought back by Mr. Gu was made of sand.

"My lord! This is the account book. If this trend continues, it can only be said that there is no loss in hoarding food this time, and it is definitely not profitable."

The man took the account book and glanced roughly at it. Seeing the unwilling expression on Jiang Shouren's face, he couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Throwing the ledger on the table, the sound startled Jiang Shouren.

"Hmph! Master's decision, you can question it? Do you think Mr. Gu has no money and can't buy food so he uses sand to make up the money? No! He is reluctant to spend money on this. You know he bought it from home. Cloth, how much money did you earn by selling it to other state capitals?"
