Chapter 120 I don't know who is making money

Hearing this news, Yunchu gave up his plan to get fierce kerosene, turned around and went to find Cui Shi.

Fortunately, Liu Yi is still waiting for Cui Shi to give him money.

Mrs. Cui is very agile in doing other things. When playing cotton, she can't wait to exhaust herself to complete the customer's order, but when giving money to others, she is always in ink.

When Yun Chu came in, he happened to hear Mrs. Cui asking Liu Yi what he was going to do with such a large sum of money.

"Take it all to buy rice." When Yun Chu opened the curtain and came in, he gave Liu Yi a very good answer.

When Cui asked about the whereabouts of the five pennies, she wanted to ask Liu Yi if he had the idea of ​​spending five pennies to buy a quilt for himself. Obviously, even if a person like Liu Yi froze to death, he would not spend such a large sum of money. A sum of money to buy a quilt, which has a very, very big conflict with his existing outlook on life.

"There is rice at home." Liu Yi replied with a smile.

"The price of rice has risen to four dollars a bucket."

"I didn't buy it when the two coins were worth a bucket. Wouldn't it be a loss if I bought it at this time?"

Regarding Liu Yi's question, Yunchu didn't bother to answer. He just told Mrs. Cui to buy as much as possible at the price of four fen a bucket immediately, and try to fill up the family's grain storage as much as possible.

At the same time, I have to go to Ruyi Winery to buy as much Jiuyunchun wine as possible. If their family doesn't have enough, they can buy it from other houses.

Buying food and wine is urgent, so naturally the whole family was dispatched. Cui took Fei Jiu Fei Shi and six women to the West Market Grain Store, and Yun Chu took Fei Ba Naha and four women to the store. Fengyifang.

It is reasonable to say that today is the Shangyuan Festival holiday, so there should not be many people buying food and wine. After Yunchu entered Fengyifang, he found that something was wrong. The carriages pulling wine here were lined up from the entrance of the workshop to the depths of the alley.

Countless men were busy loading wine into carriages, ox carts, and coats. Seeing this scene, Yun Chu's heart sank, and the people of Chang'an were probably in great trouble.

Finally came to Ruyi Winery with the carriage, but met Ruyi's stinky face.

Yunchu still didn't pay much attention, Chao Zhixia cupped his hands and said, "A certain family is here to buy the Jiuyunchun wine that has been ordered."

Zhixia held a copper-colored incense burner in her hand, lowered her head to smell the incense, and did not answer Yunchu's words.

Yun Chu turned his gaze to the shopkeeper and said, "Is Ruyi Distillery going to break the contract? If so, if it pays ten times the deposit, a certain restaurant will leave."

The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and looked at Zhixia from time to time, implying that he should ask the owner of the winery about this matter.

Yunchu looked at Zhixia's stinky face, frowned and said to Fei Ba, "I don't want the money, let's go."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left without any extra words.

"Could it be that Zhixia is so unbearable that he doesn't deserve your pity?"

Yunchu turned his head and looked at Zhixia's face that was ready to cry at any time, and said impatiently, "I want to act like a baby and find Fangzheng, but I don't have any extra sympathy for you."

"Don't you want to know about my concubine and Fang Zheng?"

Yun Chu said irritably: "Fangzheng asked me to send you money, and I'll give it to you. The friendship between us ends here. If there is any friendship, I buy wine and you sell wine. I don't have the time or the mood to listen to you and Fangzheng." It's a shitty thing between.

In a word, give me wine if you have it, and leave if you don't have it. "

The shopkeeper saw that Zhixia's face was flushed red, and quickly answered: "There is wine, there is wine, Mrs. Zhixia has already prepared it for you."

Yunchu said to the shopkeeper: "Give me all the Jiuyunchun wine, this time I need more."

The shopkeeper nodded, and took the staff and a group of women to carry the wine, leaving only Yunchu, Naha, and Zhixia in the shop.

Naha looked at her brother for a while, and Zhixia for a while. Although she didn't know why her brother hated this sweet-smelling, fair-looking woman so much, she still stood firmly on her brother's side and treated Zhixia Also ignored.

For a while, the atmosphere in the store was extremely awkward.

Yun Chu doesn't care, she's just a mistress, and it's not worth talking to her.

Yunchu had this attitude towards this kind of woman before, and he still has this attitude when he comes to Datang.

If Zhixia is Fangzheng's wife, then she should be called sister-in-law, she should be called sister-in-law, and she should be saluted. Even if sister-in-law has a bad temper, it doesn't matter, she can bear it.

This is the reason for a man to get along with his friends and wives. As far as the outer room is, you can hide as far away as possible. When your brother is not around, it is best to pretend that you don't know each other face to face.

Just like dealing with Pei Xingjian's lover Gongsun, he will not show any affection.Because it's not worth it, many times if you treat them kindly, you will cause a lot of trouble.

So, Zhixia began to cry, Yunchu became more and more displeased, and led Naha to stand on the street and talk happily.

"Brother, that woman is weird, why is she crying?"

"Enough support."

"I think she wants to talk to you."

"Why would I talk to a woman I don't know?"

"That's right, it's annoying to look at crying. When my brother marry me a sister-in-law in the future, don't want to cry like this. You should find someone who won't cry even if you get a stick."

"Yeah, I also think such a woman is good, but when I get married, you don't want to use her to practice your stick. If you want to practice stick kung fu, just find your brother."

"Well, no..."

While the two brothers and sisters were whispering, the shopkeeper of Ruyi Winery came over and cupped his hands and said, "My lord doesn't know that the owner of this winery is my young master, your colleague Fang Zheng.

It was only entrusted to the management of Miss Zhixia. A while ago, Miss Zhixia's elder brother and sister-in-law came and threatened her identity as Miss Zhixia, and occupied Ruyi Winery. The wine shop is down.

Now, Miss Zhixia is back in power, and the old man and others are back. Miss Zhixia just wants to ask Mr. Fangzheng, when will Mr. Fangzheng return from the Western Regions? "

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "He has been promoted now, if he wants to come back, he must have a way to come back, the reason why he didn't come back is because he doesn't want to come back, that's all."

Yun Chu told the truth, anyway, this is Fang Zheng's real appearance in the Western Regions. This guy has brothers and sisters all over the world. If he really wants to come back, there must be a way to come back. The reason why he didn't come back is purely because it was too comfortable to stay there.

The shopkeeper didn't ask any further questions, so he told Zhixia what Yunchu had said, and Zhixia thanked him from a distance, and then went back.

Seeing a jar of wine being loaded into the car, Yunchu was generally satisfied. Four hundred jars of wine should be able to produce fifty or sixty jars of alcohol.

In the past, Yunchu was not so impatient, mainly because Liang Jianfang's housekeeper was in a hurry and gave a lot of money, which made Yunchu regard the matter of alcohol purification as an important thing to do.

The [-] jars of wine, Fatty Ba and his men ran six times before delivering the wine to Yun's house with the guys from Ruyi Winery.

Cui stood guard at the door, removed the threshold of the house, set up planks on the steps, and stared at the grain carts entering the house.

Seeing that Yunchu came back, he hurriedly said: "Another penny has been raised. I estimate that the price of grain will definitely rise to eight pennies tomorrow. When I went to the grain store to buy grain, I asked the grain store clerk. Today All the people who went to buy grain were big families, and they were buying a lot of grain.

Mr. Lang, according to my concubine's past experience, once a shortage of food occurs, it will take two good years to alleviate it. If there is another bad year during these two years, the trouble will be serious.

The rich families will open warehouses to help their tenants, and the big families in the city will help their hungry neighbors.

Fortunately, Mr. Lang bought enough coarse grains when grain prices were the cheapest. If there is a real famine, our family's wealth will not be enough for the villagers to eat.

Therefore, the concubine is going to buy some more food and stock up. "

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "It will attract people's attention if we stock up more food, so that's it, it's enough for our family to eat."

Cui said again: "Mr., the famine year is the critical period for a family to expand. Even if it is temporarily difficult, it will be of great benefit in the future."

Of course Yunchu knew the meaning of Cui's words. In a good year, you have to pay to buy someone. In a famine year, you can replace someone with some food. The profit in this is of course amazing.

Yun Chu didn't dare to try it, he was really afraid of being struck by lightning.

"From now on, we will stop borrowing food from the public, and tell them that if they want to borrow food, they will have to wait until April for the warehouse to open. At that time, it will be the real failure. If you can overcome it now, let's overcome it."

Undercurrents are surging, and Yunchu now very much wants to know where this inexplicable grain fluctuation originated.

If you want to know about this, you can only ask the wealthy family in Datang. The family that Yunchu knows can be called a wealthy family is Da Ci'en Temple.

People like Liang Jianfang are actually lambs waiting to be slaughtered in the face of such big fluctuations. They have no resistance, and they will lose what they deserve, and there will be no exceptions just because he is a third-rank general.

The old monkey hadn't been to Yun's house in the past few days, so he asked Naha to go into the temple to ask. The people in the temple didn't know what the old monkey was doing, but he seemed to be very busy.

Just when Yunchu was worried, the Lantern Festival carnival in Chang'an City was finally over, and people woke up from the carnival and began to prepare for their lives. At this time, they realized that the price of goods in Chang'an had risen so much that they were very strange .

The people of Jinchangfang, since killing people together with Yunchu, have become more united. Even if they go to the West Market to do business, they now know that they go in groups and come back in groups.

Moreover, they are willing to gather as many people as possible in the same market according to the type of goods they sell.

This kind of unity is actually forced. They are afraid that the buck-toothed tigers will make trouble for them outside Fangshi.

On the 21st of the first lunar month, the price of corn in Chang'an was twelve cents a bucket.

And Yunchu inspected the copper coins recovered by the villagers from the West Market, and found that [-]% of them were new coins.
