The queen of drama

Chapter 188 Want to accept his food at a low price
Here, Zhao Xi withdrew from the main courtyard and chose the courtyard next to Jun Moran and them, so that he and Hua Qingyu lived next to Jun Moran and the others.

Zhao Xi chose to live next to Jun Moran and the others for a reason. Last time he followed Hua Raoyue half way through, this time he wanted to see what Hua Raoyue was up to.

When he caught sight of his guard, Zhao Xi suddenly became worried again.

What should I do with my pile of rice?
Zhao Xi thought for a while, then summoned the guards: "Go and ask those landlords if they want to collect grain?"

If you can sell all the rice to the landlord, it will save trouble.

The guard's eyes lit up, and he immediately responded, "Your subordinate, go and ask."

The guard said he hurried out.

Zhao Xi chose the courtyard next to Jun Moran and wanted to monitor Jun Moran and Hua Raoyue, but also, his every move was under the nose of Jun Moran and Hua Raoyue.

As soon as Zhao Xi's people move here, Jun Moran and Hua Raoyue over there will know.

"I guess it must be for the harvested rice." Hua Raoyue guessed, squinting her eyes, "He must have collected a lot of grain, and I don't know where to put it. It was to make us run out of food. Ke Shi, now that we have food, he must be in a hurry to deal with his batch of grain bought at a high price."

Zhao Xi was in a hurry to collect the grain, so he collected all the grain from all the grain shops in the northern cities in a short time, the price must not be low, otherwise why would the shops sell him.

As Hua Raoyue was talking, she suddenly thought of an idea, and the corner of her lips raised an evil smile uncontrollably, and she hooked her finger towards Liluo.

Li Luo hurriedly leaned over, Hua Raoyue came close to him and whispered a few words, Li Luo's eyes lit up immediately: "Princess, don't worry, this subordinate will definitely complete the task."

As he said that, Liluo was about to leave, Hua Raoyue stuffed him with a few more pieces of paper: "This is the blueprint of the shop, you can find some decorators to renovate the shop later."

This time, Zhao Xi lives next door, so it must be inconvenient for her to go out, but fortunately, she finished the work the day before, and she can do the rest without going out.Zhao Xi wanted to stare at her, but she didn't come out to see what else he could do.

"Yes." Li Luo took the drawing, stuffed it into his arms, and followed the guard secretly.

"You want to collect his food at a low price?" Hua Raoyue turned around, and saw Jun Moran's expression of seeing through her.

"Hush!" Hua Raoyue hurriedly made a silent gesture to him, then pointed to the courtyard next door, and pushed him into the room.

As soon as Hua Raoyue closed the door, she was pulled into his arms by Jun Moran, "How do you want to collect his food?"

When Hua Raoyue heard this, a sly smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she whispered a few words into his ear.

After hearing her idea, Jun Moran couldn't help pinching her round nose: "What a cunning little fox."

Hua Raoyue wrinkled her nose, and snorted: "People don't want to kill heaven and earth for themselves, who let him have a bad stomach, if he didn't think of designing to frame us, how could he get so much food in his hands, this time I will definitely If he steals chickens and loses rice, let's see if he dares to plot against us like this in the future."

Li Luo followed the guard all the way, and sure enough, he found a landlord.

Lying on the roof and eavesdropping for a while, Li Luo sneered, and the concubine really guessed that she was looking for a landlord to sell grain.

Hearing the number reported by the guard, Li Luo suddenly felt black.

It can't be seen that Zhao Xi has corrupted a lot in the position of Shangshu, and he has collected so much food.

The grain in the hands of the landlord was sold to Jun Moran and the others, but the grain was needed, but the guards were not satisfied with the price he quoted.

This price is much lower than what they charged at the beginning. If it is sold to them, they will lose half of it.

Seeing that the guard thought the price was low, the landlord was a little unhappy: "You still think the price is low. This year's harvest in the field is not good, so the price is so high. In previous years, the price was even lower."

He is also willing to negotiate the price with him because he has a lot of grain in his hands. If the quantity is small, he is too lazy to talk to him. Originally, he himself was a landlord and didn't need to buy grain at all. Now he just I want to buy some rice grains just in case.

The guard frowned. In fact, he also knew that the landlord didn't deliberately suppress their prices. After all, in order to successfully receive the rice grain from those shops, the price was too high by [-]%. , if the price is [-]% higher, isn't this positive and negative one half of the money gone?

The guard thought for a while, then looked up at the landlord: "Don't be annoyed, I can't be the master of this matter. I have to go back and ask my master. If the master agrees, I will bring the food."

"Okay." The landlord didn't want to make matters worse, after all, he still wanted other people's food.

The landlord ordered the guards to be sent away, and when he turned around, he saw Li Luo suddenly appearing in the room, and was immediately terrified.

"You are not by King Yan's side..." Soon the landlord recognized Li Luo, who was the one who brought the people from the government office to buy grain that day.

Li Luo immediately smiled at the landlord: "Don't panic, this time I'm here because my lord has something to do and wants help..."

"Say what you say." The landlord was a little flattered when he saw Li Luo say that.

Li Luo stepped forward with a smile on her face, leaned close to the landlord and whispered, the landlord nodded frequently.

Coming out from the landlord, Li Luo followed the guard again.

The guard found two more landlords, and the price was about the same as the first landlord, so he didn't ask other landlords for prices.

Li Luo followed behind him, and searched for all the landlords he had found, but it was not enough. After the guard left, he searched for all the landlords in Beibin City who could afford his grain. Only then did I feel at ease to find the decoration master.

post station.

The guard reported the grain price quoted by the landlord to Zhao Xi, and Zhao Xi's complexion suddenly turned pale: "If it's so low, then don't we have to lose half of it?"

The guard also looked helpless: "I found three landlords, all at this price. They all said that this year's harvest is not good. This guy is considered high, and it was lower in previous years."

As he spoke, he added with difficulty: "My lord, it's not that the price they gave was low, it's that the price we charged before was too high."

Zhao Xi squinted his eyes viciously, how could he not know that their price was too high, but if they didn't give it to that guy, would the rice store sell all the rice to him?
He didn't want to let Jun Moran finish the porridge and win the hearts of the people, but who knew that in the end he broke the game, and the rice grains were completely thrown into his hands.

"My lord, should we sell this rice or not?" Seeing that he didn't speak, the guard asked anxiously.

Zhao Xi glanced at him irritably: "You go down first, let me think about it carefully."

He spent more than 100 million silver on those rice grains, and this half loss is not a small amount of money.

"Yes." The guard didn't dare to disturb him anymore, bowed and retreated.

On this day, Zhao Xi didn't eat anything, just thinking about how else to deal with the food?
Li Luo finished the business of the shop and came back to report the conversation between the guard and the landlords.

Hua Raoyue didn't expect that Zhao Xi would collect so much grain. If she received the grain, it would be enough for her to sell it for a year or two.

The more Hua Raoyue thought about it, the more excited she became, she looked at Li Luo and said, "Did you follow my orders?"

Li Luo smiled triumphantly: "Princess, don't worry, all the subordinates have followed Wangfei's orders, not only the few landlords, but the subordinates have gone to all the landlords who have the ability to collect his grain."

Hua Raoyue gave Liluo a thumbs up excitedly when she heard the words: "Liluo, you are really getting smarter and smarter!"

Li Luo happily scratched his head: "It's all taught by the princess."

Hua Raoyue glanced at the neighbor and said, "I don't know if Zhao Xi will agree to sell grain."

After all, the price offered by the landlord is quite different from the price he bought before, and he bought so much, it's not as simple as 1 to [-].

Jun Moran also raised his eyebrows and glanced at the neighbor: "Don't worry, he will sell."

Hua Raoyue's eyes lit up, and she looked at Jun Moran curiously: "What do you say?"

Jun Moran raised his lips to look at her: "Do you still remember that this king told you before that Zhao Xi would not stay with us for too long?"

Hua Raoyue's eyes widened suddenly: "You mean there is news from the capital?"
