Long Wind Crossing

    Liu Yuru looked at the letter and couldn't help but laugh. When she read the first sentence, she still thought, Gu Jiusi is still simple and simple, and if I don't want to ask him a poetry teacher, lest I want to express my feelings, I will only speak the vernacular:

    I missed you.

    I am very happy.

    Hahahahahaha.

    In the future, I am afraid that I will be looked down upon by others. Fortunately, the tone of the conversation changed on the second page, and finally there was a bit of a sour tone of a scholar.

    Liu Yuru looked at the letter, she thought about it, and decided to discuss with Gu Jiusi when the matter was finished.

    She stayed in Wucheng and went to inquire about the news on the first day. She visited almost all the grain stores and rouge stores. Most of the rouge stores had flower-like goods, and the prices were high and low. The real and the fake are mixed for sale.

    Liu Yuru spent a day to find out the bottom of Wucheng. The price of food is about the same price, there is not much fluctuation, and the rouge shop is mixed. There is a Xie Shixiang shop, which is quite famous in Wucheng. No matter the price and decoration, it is close to Huarong, and the goods inside are all genuine. , Liu Yuru asked, these were brought back by their boss from Wangdu, so the price is much higher.

    Liu Yuru almost had an idea.

    This time, I mainly came to buy food, and secondly, I was to find out the sales situation of flowers in various places, and see if it was suitable to use the agent sales method to buy goods. If it is suitable, she will select a suitable agent locally, and when she returns to Wangdu, she will form a team to come over and talk about it. Therefore, she didn't come forward to talk with Xie Shixiang in detail. After she almost understood the situation, she went back to the inn.

    On the second day, Liu Yuru ordered to go down, disguise all the people in the caravan as merchants, and go to the major grain merchants in Wucheng to buy grain. Be fast, and give up and buy more.

    The arranged person went down, and Liu Yuru was sitting in the teahouse drinking tea, inquiring about the surrounding information.

    Liu Yuru looked at the scene outside without saying a word. Shen Ming glanced at Liu Yuru and couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at?"

    "Half a year ago," Liu Yuru turned around with a smile and said slowly, "I have been to Cangzhou."

    Shen Ming nodded: "I heard about it."

    "There were refugees everywhere."

    Liu Yuru sighed: "Jiusi and I were locked outside the city gate, and we saw with our own eyes that some people killed people and made a lot of money, and even Yizi devoured each other. Now there are refugees in Wucheng, but you can see , is also a wealthy businessman from Cangzhou and Wucheng, but he can still adjust grain to sell to us."

    "That's why I said," Shen Ming said with a cold face, "These wealthy businessmen are in trouble, they should all be killed."

    "Shen Ming," Liu Yuru shook her head, "if you have a grudge for one person, then you can naturally enjoy the grudge. But if you think about a group of people, or even a country, then you have to go to the Go higher. Do you think Jiusi likes to be an official?"

    Liu Yuru smiled bitterly: "Isn't it also for the sake of making more people live better?"

    Shen Ming didn't say anything. The more he got to know the couple these days, the more he understood that his past perception of many people was prejudice.

    But he didn't speak, Liu Yuru took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Go to buy food tomorrow."

    Liu Yuru sends people out every day and keeps increasing prices to buy food. No matter how the price goes up, Liu Yuru will accept it.

    In less than four days, there was a sudden boom in buying grain in the city, and every household went to collect grain and exchanged money. At this time, Liu Yuru asked people to contact the local bank for the money, and took part of the money to take out the mortgage.

    Liu Yuru doesn't want meat or vegetables, just corn and noodles, so for a while, the price of these two things is much more expensive than other foods. For a while in Wucheng, everyone moved by the wind and started a business to buy grain.

    With less food, the price will naturally rise. Most people don't actually understand how this grain has risen, but they also find that even if they don't sell it to Liu Yuru, there are people in the city who receive grain at a high price, so they are relieved to start harvesting grain.

    Liu Yuru took advantage of everyone's enthusiasm for buying grains, and quietly put the grains bought before on the market many times.

    Everyone gradually found that there was more food, but many people still bought and hoarded a lot.

    Liu Yuru counted the time and said to everyone, "The food is temporarily unavailable. That's it."

    Liu Yuru stopped collecting grain, and many people bought a lot of grain at high positions in order to make money, and the grain had nowhere to go for a while, especially the business people, when their own flow was cut off, they naturally panicked .

    First, some people began to sell the grain at a lower price, so the grain price began to drop rapidly, and the grain harvesters in the whole city began to be afraid. Liu Yuru watched the price go down all the way, and even fell below the original When the price came to Wucheng, subordinate Yunyun came to ask Liu Yuru: "Madam, is it time to take action."

    Liu Yuru looked at the expressions of the people outside, she took a sip of tea and bought a thousand stones today.

    The amount that Liu Yuru let in has always been smaller than the daily amount.

    No one knows how Liu Yuru calculates these prices. Liu Yuru walks around the restaurant every day and seems to not care about these things at all.

    Everyone was a little flustered when they saw the price of food falling again and again. Yunyun couldn't help but said, "Ma'am, if the price of food falls again, the government will be involved."

    Liu Yuru looked at the person and nodded, but said, "Wait another day."

    Liu Yuru went back to look at the ledger at night, and looked at the money they lent out before. After calculating the interest, it should have reached the limit of a businessman's balance.

    As expected, on the second day, some people were sitting on the market selling grain, and some people proposed to the bank to use grain and other items to pay off debts.

    Liu Yuru asked Shen Ming to say hello to the bank, and the money she put out could be paid for with food.

    She gave a price, which is just a little higher than the market.

    And then Liu Yuru sent people out to collect grain. At this time, the people who collected grain had already begun to sell under the pressure of loans. Liu Yuru did not buy short, but bought 50% of each family. , Liu Yuru bought enough Wucheng's goal.

    She didn't delay, she packed food, and immediately left the city, without hesitation, she sent the food directly back to Wangdu.

    Wucheng bought 50,000 stone, Liu Yuru calculated the distance, if the food loss by land is huge, the distance between Wucheng and the sea is not too far, she simply asked people to go around the sea by land, and then send it to Gu Jiusi went back.

    When sending it back, Yin Hong reminded Liu Yuru: "Madam, my uncle wrote you a letter before, and you also have a message."

    Liu Yuru took stock of the food all night, and her head was a little dazed. After hearing this, she came to a realization, and hurriedly went back with the humane: "Tell the adults to tell him not to miss me too much, This time I have been out for a long time, and he will get used to it. Also, let the adults remember, I have inquired about the news that King Liang is heavily guarded, and this battle will not be over for a while, so let him prepare for the early morning of next year."

    Hearing this, Shen Ming stifled a smile. Yin Hong was also a little helpless, and hurriedly persuaded: "Madam, say a few more words."

    Liu Yuru thought about it for a while, and then she remembered: "Oh, and also, let the adults find a master and practice more calligraphy. His calligraphy is the rule now, but it is still very ugly, don't When you become an official, you slack off from studying.”

    In red: "…"

    Shen Ming laughed beside him.

     Yunyun looked helpless.

    Liu Yuru didn't care what other people were thinking, she waved her hand and let them go, then she got into the carriage, fell on the carriage, and said: "The time is urgent, hurry up. ."

    After saying that, she went straight to sleep.

    These grains carried Liu Yuru's words, crossed the mountains and the sea, and finally reached Wangdu after half a month.

    Gu Jiusi knew that the food was coming, so he knew that Liu Yuru's letter was coming, and went out to greet him in person early in the morning, Huang Long and Huzi followed, and said hurriedly: "Sir, slow down, the food can't escape. of."

    Gu Jiusi ignored it, he went straight to the gate of the county town, saw the flag of the Liu Yuru caravan, rushed in front of the leader, and said anxiously, "Uncle Zhang, where is the letter?"

    Uncle Zhang who led the team was the original servant of the Gu family. Liu Yuru made money and brought back all the people who brought the Gu family from Yangzhou to Wangdu. Uncle Zhang looked at Gu Jiusi's anxious look, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, young master, the situation was too hurried at that time, the young lady bought food and took us out of Wucheng quickly, and then counted us all night and let us leave, there was no time to write. "

    "I didn't write the letter, but there must be a verbal letter?"

    Gu Jiusi frowned, seemingly unhappy. Uncle Zhang hurriedly said, "There are messages. Madam ordered three things."

    "What?" Gu Jiusi became happy, his eyes lit up, and he said hurriedly, "Did Madam miss me?"

    "No, Madam said, she's been out for a long time this time, don't miss her too much, just get used to it."

    Gu Jiusi's smile froze upon hearing this. After Huzi and Huanglong caught up, they saw that Uncle Zhang didn't wink, and continued: "The madam also said that the news she inquired outside, King Liang's defenses are heavily guarded, and the battle will not be finished in a while, you have to prepare for next year as early as possible. prepare."

    "What else?" Gu Jiusi lost his smile and frowned, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope.

    Three orders, and one more, it must be about him, right?

    "Madam added a sentence at the end," Uncle Zhang said with a smile, "I asked you to find a master to teach you to practice calligraphy, saying that although your calligraphy is well established, it is still very good. It's ugly, let you stop being an official and slack off reading."

    Gu Jiusi's face was completely dark.

    He was sullen and silent. Uncle Zhang sighed with emotion: "Master, Madam really cares about you. When you go out like this, you still remember your studies. It's a rare good wife."

    Gu Jiusi was silent, he put his hands in his sleeves, glanced at the caravan behind Uncle Zhang, and said indifferently: "Uncle Zhang has worked hard, a banquet has been prepared at home to wash away the dust for you. There is still something to do in the government office, let's go first."

    After speaking, Gu Jiusi turned around and left, looking a little annoyed.

    Uncle Zhang was stunned for a while, and he was a little flustered, and hurriedly said to Mu Nan next to him: "Mu Nan, sir, this is..."

    "It's okay."

    Mu Nan waved his hand: "Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you, the son is angry with himself."

    Speaking, Mu Nan chased Gu Jiusi up, smiled and said with Gu Jiusi: "Young Master, don't go so fast, the caravan is going back soon, you can leave a message to your wife."

    "What should I leave her for?" Gu Jiusi said with a stern face, "she doesn't want me, why do I want her? It's fine to do business."

    Liu Yuru was talking business with people in the prefecture of Qingzhou at this time. She was drinking tea and chatting, and she sneezed out.

    The businessman opposite was stunned for a while, then said, "Boss Liu, are you feeling unwell."

    Liu Yuru was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I don't know why, but suddenly my nose feels itchy."

    "Sneezing so suddenly, I'm afraid someone misses you." The merchant opposite smiled and said, "Boss Liu went out to do business, the family probably has been thinking about it?"

    Hearing this, Liu Yuru couldn't help but laugh.

    She suddenly remembered Gu Jiusi's unpretentious "When will you come back", her heart was soft and gentle, and her voice could not help but soften a little.

    "Yes." She said softly, "The one in my family, I'm afraid he always misses me."

    The author has something to say:  【Small Theater】

    Gu Jiusi: Wife wrote a letter back and ran wild to greet her!

    Huang Long: Lord, slow down!

    Gu Jiusi (blindly): Uncle Zhang, did Yuru miss me?

    Uncle Zhang: No, she is very happy.

    Gu Jiusi's smile gradually disappeared, and then he became abnormal.
