God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 847 Food War
As a result, Du He had an extra son.

Du He learned in detail what Wang Laowu did after he arrived in Jiangnan, and was very satisfied with his godson's performance.

So he left the matter of regulating the food prices in Chang'an City and Hu County to Wang Laowu, and Du He only needed to check the results every few days.

Wang Laowu accepted the order happily: "Don't worry godfather, my son will definitely not let you down!"

The guy happily walked out of the yard.

Wang Laowu saw Lao Fu who was walking with him beside him, and said with a smile: "Old Fu, how long have you been with your godfather?"

The old man proudly said: "It's too late. I watched the young master grow up. The young master has shown extraordinary performance since he was a child. For example, when he was born, the entire Lai State Duke's mansion was full of phoenixes and dragons. !"

Old Fu likes to read recently, and he also likes to read history books. He has the impression that since ancient times, when a great person is born, there will be visions.

It's not easy for our young master to be such an awesome person!
Wang Laowu took out a heavy money bag from his sleeve and handed it to the old man: "Old man, we will be a family from now on, you should speak a few words of kindness for me in front of your godfather!"

Old Fu glanced at Wang Laowu.

Snapped.

He slapped the money bag on the ground with a slap.

"Don't come here, am I the kind of person who is greedy for money? Also, boy, I warn you, since you have recognized the young master as a godfather, you must handle things well in the future. If you dare to have any unlawful attempts, don't wait If the young master makes a move, I will beat you to death! Bah, that dog-like thing wants to bribe me!" Old Fu said disdainfully.

After finishing speaking, Old Fu stepped forward and waved.

Immediately, several bearers rushed out from the side and placed the sedan chair in front of the old Fu.

A middle-aged man hastily stepped forward and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and graciously led the old man into the sedan chair.

The sedan chair swaggered away.

Wang Laowu was dumbfounded.

He Nuonuo said to himself: "Isn't this guy just a housekeeper? How come this scene is bigger than a county magistrate, and you dare to scold me!"

Someone passed by, grabbed Wang Laowu's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "You have to be careful what you say, that one just now, but the son of Si Nong County, was canonized by His Majesty a few days ago!"

"County..."

Wang Laowu suddenly became confused.

The world is so crazy?

A housekeeper, a farmer, can get a title?
Mother!

Then, Wang Laowu counted with his fingers, and suddenly discovered a remarkable situation, that is, many people who followed Du He seemed to have obtained titles.

In the beginning, Yuchi Baolin went to Lantian to dig coal to obtain the title of county son.

Then there are two brothers Wei Shuyu and Wei Shuwan, who got the title of County Viscount from raising pigs.

Dai Jinyun, for his meritorious service in promoting pork, was granted the title of magistrate.

After that was Lao Fu, this guy was actually a title obtained by farming.

Immediately, Wang Lao Wu raised his head and said confidently: "Godfather is a title-making machine, I must work hard, and if there is smoke from the ancestral grave one day, I will also get the title, hahaha!"

Wang Laowu is full of energy.

This guy followed Du He's instruction.

Within a few days, the food prices in the area around Chang'an slowly dropped.

However, within a few days, the food price went up again.

Wang Laowu was a little confused, so he hurried to the county government office to ask Du He for advice.

Du He was drinking tea, and said calmly: "Don't worry, this matter is under my master's control! I asked you to sell grain before, in order to scare the snake out of the hole... Fifth, the recent grain The price has not come down, is it because someone is secretly buying grain?"

"Godfather, you are really good at predicting things! This matter was only found out by Zhang Jian when he went to investigate. In Chang'an and various places, there are people who secretly buy grain, as much as they want. In other words, the grain we release is not It was not bought by the people, but by these people!" Wang Laowu said.

Du He smiled and said, "So, do you understand what Dad means?"

"Son understands, what does dad mean, capture these people and kill them all?" Wang Laowu said seriously.

Du He: "..."

boom.

He kicked Wang Laowu to the ground.

"Pig brains... You still claim to be a genius in business, but you didn't realize that there are huge business opportunities in it? That's all, this time, I will let my father do it, and show you what is a show operation! " Du He stood up, shook his head, and said with a sigh.

Dad wants to make a move?

Wang Laowu was so excited.

Afterwards, Du He went into battle in person, called Zhang Jian, and asked Zhang Jian to arrange for people with venomous teeth to go to Chang'an and other places to inquire about the people who bought food on a large scale this time.

That night, a list was delivered to Du He.

Du He held the list, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "It seems that the fish have already been hooked. Fifth, from tomorrow onwards, slow down the speed of putting food on the market!"

"Father, if we reduce the amount of grain put into the market, I'm afraid the price of grain will continue to rise!"

"Do as I say!"

"Yes!"

Wang Laowu hurriedly prepared according to Du He's arrangement.

The next day, the food that appeared in the market in various places was reduced by half.

Food prices quickly returned to their previous levels, twice as high as before the price increase.

All the food sent by Dream Group was sold out.

For a time, people panic.

The people began to complain again.

When the news reached the palace, Dai Zhou, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, was going to give a performance, but suddenly found that His Majesty was missing.

Then there was a gossip that His Majesty was troubled by the matter of rewarding Du He, so he didn't plan to summon the ministers these few days.

……

Changan.

In a house.

A group of merchants dressed in brocade clothes gathered here.

In the middle is an old man, about 60 years old, with white beard and hair.

This person's name is Su Hongchun, he is a well-known businessman in Chang'an City, and he specializes in grain business.

To say that Su Hongchun's way of doing grain business is quite simple, that is to buy at a low price and pay a high price. Just like in the autumn harvest season, the grain price is the lowest in a year, and when it is green and yellow after the beginning of spring, the grain price is the highest in a year point.

of course there are exceptions.

For example, when various feeds from the Pig Tycoon Pig Feed Processing Factory appeared recently, others just talked about it, or scolded the Pig Tycoon Pig Feed Processing Factory for wasting food, but Su Hongchun sensed a business opportunity.

With so much food consumed, there will be a shortage of food in the coming year, and those who have food will be able to accomplish great things.

Therefore, he immediately summoned a dozen friends to raise money, and bought grain at a low price at the same time as the Dream Group.

Then, food prices were pushed to more than double the market price.

I thought that this time I could make a steady profit.

Unexpectedly, Dream Group suddenly shipped grain from Jiangnan, and the grain in the market suddenly increased, and the price dropped.

At this time, Su Hongchun couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately summoned people to buy up the grain sold by the Dream Group.

At this moment, many people sitting in the main hall are worried.

Someone said: "It is said that the Dream Group brought a lot of food from Jiangnan this time. It would be great if we could buy all of it. If we can't eat it, I'm afraid there will be problems!"
