A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 67: No jokes before you

Xiao Qing sneered in his heart, just wanting to see Shen An's joke.

Shen An said innocently: "Your Majesty, what I want to say is to teach them a lesson using merchant methods!"

"What means?"

Zhao Zhen felt that this boy was always a little... You could say he was deviant, but there was always something different.

Shen An said: "I remember last time I heard that there was a lot of rice in the warehouse. Since those merchants are willing to increase the price, why not sell the old grain in the warehouse at a lower price? There are only two of those merchants. The choice is, one is to lower the price, and the other is to hold on."

Xiao Qing asked: "What if they resist?"

Shen An smiled and said: "Then Chaozhong will sell it himself. The people's demand for rice is so much. If they buy Chaozhong's rice, the merchants' rice will naturally be unsaleable. When the time comes... they may not make any money." sold."

This is killing two birds with one stone. It can not only teach those merchants a lesson, but also bring down the price of food in the capital, so that the people's lives can be easier before the summer harvest.

All the important officials in the hall were looking at Shen An with complicated expressions.

Zhao Zhen coughed dryly and said, "What do you think, sir?"

Wen Yanbo smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, I think... it's okay."

"I second my opinion."

Xiao Qing watched helplessly as the ministers all agreed with Shen An's plan. He couldn't help feeling tight in his chest, and then he retched.

Shen An asked with concern: "Xiao Daizhao is...pregnant?"

Xiao Qing was so angry that a puff of air swirled in his chest and abdomen, and he gradually went downstream.

Then news from all sides continued to come.

"Your Majesty, those businessmen are emboldened, and the price of food has risen again."

This is too much!

This time even Wen Yanbo couldn't help but snorted: "Your Majesty, it seems that you want to teach them a lesson."

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, then glanced at Shen An and asked, "I almost forgot that you have also set up a stall outside, and you have some accomplishments in Shangyi."

Shen An said humbly: "Your Majesty, that stall is worse than the one outside the courtyard. How dare you claim your accomplishments?"

The emperor's words were to excuse the ministers, but there was something wrong with Shen An's words.

Is he mocking us for being worse than the vendors outside the courtyard?

Fu Bi coughed dryly and said, "This is just a trivial matter."

Zaifu thinks this is just a small thing to adjust the atmosphere in the court. Who dares to deny it?

Even if they don't take action, the people of Bianliang City are just buying high-priced food for a few days. Is the sky falling?

"Your Majesty, those businessmen have gathered together to discuss matters."

this……

This is about to break out a business war!

Wen Yanbo said angrily: "Your Majesty, let Kaifeng Mansion arrest people!"

This was the Prime Minister's decision. When Zhao Zhen saw other people nodding, he was ready to agree.

"Your Majesty, since they are talking about business through commercial means, why can't the DPRK and China use commercial means to fight back?"

Zhao Zhen looked at Shen An with a stern expression.

Shen An did not evade, and said with a smile: "The majesty of the court must be guaranteed, but if you use Kaifeng Mansion, you feel guilty..."

Why use force if you don't feel guilty?

Wen Yanbo said coldly: "Who will host it?"

Fu Bi also felt that Shen An had gone too far, so he frowned and said, "If we lose money, what will the three envoys say?"

Zhang Fangping, the Third Chief of Staff, had been calculating. Hearing this, he said: "We will lose money."

Wen Yanbo rolled his sleeves and said, "Nonsense!"

Xiao Qing concealed his pride and said: "National affairs are not something that businessmen can comment on. You must know that the temple is so high that every word and deed may affect the world, so you must be cautious!"

These words were safe and ridiculed Shen An's background as a businessman. Wen Yanbo nodded slightly to Xiao Qing to express his appreciation.

Just about to be pinned down by Shen An, and now he finally returned to Yicheng, Xiao Qing felt a coolness in his chest and abdomen, and the air dropped, and there was a roar in his intestines.

"Be careful of diarrhea."

Shen An muttered, and then said: "Your Majesty, I don't think I will lose money."

Zhang Fangping didn't look good, but he didn't say anything.

Xiao Qing felt that he had hooked up with the prime ministers, so he wanted to strike while the iron was hot, so he immediately said: "Who is going? Who will be responsible for the loss? It is not a problem for young people to talk casually, but this is above the court, it is not allowed. Nonsense.”

You say you don't lose money, but if you lose money, whose fault is it?

Wen Yanbo nodded slightly and had a better impression of Xiao Qing.

Shen An smiled dryly and said, "It's mine."

There was a moment of silence...

Fu Bi said solemnly: "This is in front of the emperor. If you talk nonsense, you are deceiving the emperor!"

Shen An said honestly: "Yes! But I don't think we will lose money."

"Just you?"

Xiao Qing finally opened his face and launched an attack boldly.

Shen An said with a smile: "That's right! Just because of me, I made a safe journey from Xiongzhou to Bianliang, and I earned a fortune with my own brains. Of course, brainless people like you People naturally can’t think of what to do without losing money.”

Wen Yanbo said coldly: "There is no joke before you."

Zhao Zhen watched helplessly as a group of ministers crowded around Shen An, but he remained silent.

The way to be a king is not to get involved in everything. Silence is also an attitude in many cases.

I've given you a chance to perform, it's up to you whether you can seize it or not.

Shen An bowed to Zhao Zhen and said: "If I lose money, I am willing to do business for the rest of my life to repay it."

The inventor of stir-fry, the owner of fragrant dew, the friend of women...

A series of titles gave Shen An the title of a business tycoon. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

This commitment is powerful, and it’s also very deep.

Everyone looked at Zhao Zhen together.

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly...

Later, the doors of Guangjicang and other warehouses on the Dongshui Gate side were opened one after another, and carts pulling grain came out.

"The position is open!"

"The government has reduced prices to sell grain."

Shen An stood outside Guangji warehouse, waiting for a carriage to come, and then opened a bag and took a look.

The official on the side introduced: "Shen Daizhao, this corn is from the year before last. If it doesn't come out of the warehouse, it will have to be sold at a reduced price next year."

As a supervisor, Chen Zhongheng followed Shen An.

The news spread quickly, and the businessmen were all shocked. After learning that Shen An was in charge of the matter, the atmosphere became relaxed again.

Everyone had a short tea party, and they all agreed that Shen An was good at inventions and creations, and that he was an expert in large-scale transactions such as grain trading.

Officials actually opened a position, what is this?

The eyes of a group of businessmen gradually turned green, like hungry wolves that had discovered their prey.

"purchase!"

A businessman slammed his fist on the table and shouted: "It's just a few days' work, why don't we even make this little money? How much can they sell? It must be lower than the market price. I will buy them all by then."

"Okay! I bought it at a low price and we can make a profit when we resell it. It's so refreshing!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The merchants were reveling in the carnival. Shen An followed the convoy into the city and then ordered the selling to begin.

"Thirty coins per fight!"

Shen An stood at the front of the motorcade, raised his hand and said, "No limit!"

boom!

In an instant, the crowds were crowded, and people buying food came in droves...
