151 The North Wind Blows Outside the City

"If you guys want to buy a land guide, the younger one has a connection here." The man smiled and said, "I dare not lie to you, the younger one only takes five grains of money for each order."

Liao Xing was deeply afraid that the prince would grow up in the palace and not understand the people's feelings, so he turned to the prince and said: "This is what the people call private teeth."

The man heard this, and couldn't help but argue: "The young one also has a government tooth card."

Liao Xing glared at him: "Maybe there is a tooth card from the government, but it's definitely not for you! Do you think we haven't seen it before? It clearly states that private resale is strictly prohibited!"

Seeing that Liao Xing was knowledgeable, the man quickly apologized and said with a smile: "The business here is very profitable, who would not want to do it? Let me tell you the truth, even ordinary people like me have to buy one or two and put it away."

Zhu Cihong originally hoped that the gentry class in Luoyang would eat up all these orders, but he did not expect that ordinary people would also participate in it.Economics conducts research on the premise that everyone is a rational person, but the reality is just the opposite, and there are very few rational people.

"Aren't you afraid of being smashed in your hands?" Zhu Cihong asked, "Li Chuang's army is right under the city of Ruzhou."

"This young master is overthinking." The man said with a smile, "not to mention that the crown prince is still in Luoyang, the Donggong army stationed in Ruzhou alone is enough for Li Chuang to drink a pot. Besides, this quotation is If you want to use it, as long as there is a good land to release, don’t you just change the land? Even if Li Chuang comes, you can’t deny the land deed.”

Luoyang is a place that has been occupied once, and the people are no strangers to Li Zicheng, and they are not afraid of what they did.The last time Li Zicheng came to Luoyang, he killed King Fu and opened a granary.

"How much money is quoted now?" Zhu Cihong asked again.

"Five taels." The private tooth blurted out, and then added: "Maybe I can still go up."

Zhu Cihong nodded and said, "We don't want it."

An angry look flashed across that private tooth's face, and just as he was about to speak, Liao Xing threw out a few full-color copper coins in front of him: "As a reward for saying so many words, we won't take the quotation."

Then the private tooth turned his anger into joy, he bowed his hands again and again, and went to other tables to look for guests.

Zhu Cihong took a sip of the tea, but felt the bitterness was unbearable, swallowed it hard, and said, "This is already more than the land price."

Liao Xing was also a little surprised: "Yesterday it was only three taels, and the effort has increased by two taels in a day? He can't be the one who lied to us, right?"

"I think it's possible." Zhu Cihong said: "The price of this kind of thing is counted every day. This is because the East Palace strictly prohibits private sales, otherwise it may be even more outrageous. Liao Xing, go spread the word, and just said that the East Palace will return it in a few days." A large area should be released."

"Is the index going to rise again?" Liao Xing asked excitedly.

"It's time to close the net." Zhu Cihong lowered his voice and covered his mouth with a teacup.

Although Luoyang will inevitably be an enemy-occupied area, once financial weapons are out of control, it will have the greatest impact on the lower class people.Zhu Cihong doesn't mind the innocent blood on his first bucket of gold, but for his future people and compatriots, he still doesn't want to force people to hang themselves and jump into the river.

Liao Xing was not satisfied with this new game, but His Royal Highness had already decided to close the net, so he did not dare to disobey his orders.

That night, the servants of Liao's family brought back a heavy-duty ox cart with boxes stacked on it from Fuwang's Mansion.Inside these boxes are the diyin engraved by the officials of the East Palace day and night.

Once such a huge amount of ground leads floods into the market, the fledgling ground lead trade is bound to face a catastrophe.However, these batches of land quotations belonged to targeted sales, and many rich families got through the relationship of Mr. Liao, offering gifts and bribes, and begging the Liao family to help them buy in large quantities.This batch of land guides from the Eastern Palace is just for them.

As more and more land was released, the price of land quotations continued to rise, and finally reached twelve pieces.At this price point, it has far exceeded the land value.And this price is not what Xiaomin can participate in the game.Zhu Cihong originally hoped that the land would flow out of the hands of the small folks and gather with the big families, but the reality of the market is that more small folks got involved, went bankrupt and gathered funds to buy the land...

……

"Have you heard? Many Huguang customers come from far away to buy land!"

"With such a high price, who would buy it? It's even more expensive than buying land directly..."

"What do you know, those big families are still buying it now, we just need to buy one and sell it... Tsk tsk, this is enough for a year!"

……

Liao Xing quickly reported the market trend to Zhu Cihong, and the previous novelty gradually turned into fear.He secretly made an inconspicuous mark on the ground guides, and asked people to go to the ghost market to check, and found that many of the ground guides he sold to wealthy families had flowed into the ghost market.

A ghost market is a market that appears like ghosts at night and disappears at sunrise.Most of the people who trade here are small people with a little family property.

"Your Highness, we originally wanted to kill fat pigs, but now we have turned into killing poor ghosts. What should we do?" Liao Xing always spoke freely. Since he was never disliked by the prince, he didn't bother to change his surname.

Zhu Cihong gently held Ruyi in his hand, and asked after a long time: "How much money did the land and land money earn in total?"

Liao Xing looked at Yao Tao.If this kind of large amount of silver income is not monitored, it is really reassuring.In particular, the Liao family has yet to gain complete trust, so people from the Finance Department of the Eastern Palace are involved in every transaction, and the accounts are checked and stored, and the books are clear.

Yao Tao now has not only female officials, but also several old accountants. She has seen a lot of the world and has no taboos, so she stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, in the past few days, only two incomes from real estate and land transfers have totaled 80 yuan. Among them, 50 yuan is in cash. 30 taels, not excluding the fire consumption. In addition, there are commercial notes of commercial banks and various physical objects discounted by [-] taels."

Zhu Cihong thought to himself: It is really troublesome not to use the unified currency symbol for statistics.It seems that when we arrive in Shandong, we have to establish our own financial team as soon as possible.

He looked at Liao Xing, and felt that this young man from a merchant background was quite capable and could be taken away.

"80 taels is enough, let's ship it completely." Zhu Cihong tapped his palm with Ruyi: "This method can no longer be used, especially not to let people know that Donggong is operating behind the scenes. People will never be spared."

Others didn't care about this kind of warning. They had no relatives or old friends in Henan, so who would they leak the secret to?Liao Xing was under great pressure.His family is a local tyrant, if it is leaked out, they will naturally find him.While he was thinking about it, he felt a little uncomfortable, and subconsciously looked at the prince, but his gaze met with that of His Highness, making him even more disturbed.

When Liao Xing returned home, he repeated everything about the meeting to his grandfather.Hearing the last warning, Master Liao sighed and said, "You heard me right, it's true that Donggong doesn't trust us."

"Then what should we do?" Liao Xing asked in a low voice.These days, he regards the East Palace as his family's great backer, and he really has no second opinion in his heart, but unexpectedly, he still won't be trusted by the crown prince, feeling disappointed.

"Stupid boy!" Master Liao became excited and scolded with a smile: "Our family didn't even hand in the nomination certificate, so we want to be trusted? The crown prince said this just to support our family and let you hand in the nomination certificate!"

"Isn't that what the bandits play when they fall into the grass? The crown prince also plays this?" Liao Xing disagreed.

"The bandits who occupy a mountain and a village are very particular, let alone the Tian family who control the world!" Master Liao went to bed cross-legged, turned his head sideways, asked Liao Xing to light a cigarette for him, and said in a few words: "It depends on whether you can follow myself."

"What is Grandpa going to vote for?" Liao Xing asked.

Master Liao was silent for a long time, and he slapped his leg heavily: "Go and spread the word, just say that the Liao family has taken over the land! You can take as much as you want under 15 taels of silver! If the amount is large, you can relax!"

"Grandpa!" Liao Xing was taken aback: "What if I hit my hand? Where did our family get so much cash? And from what I've seen these days, Donggong seems to be going northwest. Those eunuchs are all there Pack your things!"

"The reason for this is to sell the goods!" Master Liao glanced at his grandson dissatisfied: "If we call it like this, others will wait for 15 taels to sell it, which happens to let our family members sell it for [-] or [-] taels. "

"So that's it!" Liao Xing grinned: "It really is a cunning old man!"

Master Liao slapped him with a slap: "Your grandfather, I am old and strong!"

Liao Xing laughed out loud and went out.

The old man had fun alone for a while, and when the heat passed, he thought: This grandson is very knowledgeable, how could he not understand this trickery?Hey!This kid also knows how to make me happy! (To be continued.)
