1817 Playing with the Grain Merchant(1/2)
?Zhang Chu didn't seem to hear this clearly. Others looked at Li Cong blankly. Why didn't this person tell him earlier? We are not fools. If this is really the case, we will exchange our food for it.
How can we not do such a thing to create an elixir? Our brains are not stupid. As more and more wounded people come, the elixir will definitely be in greater demand. By then, the price will increase several times.
It is possible that food is sold to everyone, but not all of these people can afford it, but these pills and so on are sold to mercenaries or some rich people.
, these people can easily come up with tens of thousands of gold coins, and they are the largest consumer customers. With the food in their hands, they may worry that the common people will smash, smash, and rob them, but mercenaries will not do that.
Although they are not merchants of medicinal materials when something like this happens, they are merchants in the final analysis, and they can have a hand in any profitable business.
"This... this matter seems not to be handled properly. If so, am I taking too much advantage?" Zhang Chuneng said such words and it seemed that he was an honest person. In fact, Li Cong's guess was correct.
, this guy’s family has been in the grain business for generations, and his family also has ancestral precepts. Just follow the normal business, and he will never make such an unconscionable fortune. But in such an environment where the general trend is the general trend, the Zhang family is a county.
The grain merchants really have no ability to resist other things. They can only follow these people step by step. Each of these people is indeed very powerful. Almost all grain merchants are in the capital or
Compared with those who have their own backstage in the provincial capital, the Zhang family is nothing. They really don’t know how to do well. The Zhang family can only follow the trend in many cases. Although the younger members of the Zhang family
We also have backbone, but sometimes our backbone is not really useful and we can only follow these people.
"It doesn't matter whether it's cheap or not. I also know that exchanging the elixirs for money and then buying food is the best way. But now I don't have that much money, only the elixirs. You can just find someone to come and get them from me later.
I'll still leave the grain with you, I'll just ask someone to take out some of it every day. If your store isn't busy, sell it for me, and the price will be only ten cents per catty." Li Cong said with a smile.
The other people were also moved. They were hoarding these grains to make money. Now that there is a place that is more profitable and safe, who can not be jealous, but this business is controlled by Li Cong, alas.
, they have an alchemist master, how can we compare with them? Everyone knows that as long as this alchemist wants to make money faster than stealing money, they are not an alchemist. They don’t know the alchemist, so they can only follow.
When the alchemist cooperates, although most of the profits are made by the alchemist, as long as the alchemist can leave some for us, we will not be able to use it all in our lifetime.
"Thank you, Mr. Cao. Thank you, Mr. Cao. I'm going to do something right now. I won't miss Mr. Cao's business. I have hundreds of servants at home. If Mr. Cao is short of manpower, just say a word and I'll ask them to come.
Go to Nancheng to help Mr. Cao." Zhang Chu has no burden at all at this time. It doesn't matter if these people hinder him in business in the future. After completing this business, he will be able to support the Zhang family for several lifetimes.
Okay, even if we stop doing business in the grain store. As long as we have money, we can’t do any kind of business. If Li Cong can really give us face, it’s not impossible to do medicine business in the future. President
What I said to myself was really right. If this opportunity was lost like that, I wouldn't know where to cry. Just look at the faces of the businessmen around me. In fact, they all hope that they can
Those of you who are doing this business, it's a pity that you are a step too late and others won't cooperate with you.
"Haha, since Mr. Zhang has these idle people at home, just call me over. I'm really short of manpower there. Alas, actually I'm not that anxious to get food. I've also started collecting food in several nearby counties.
I wonder if the grain merchants over there would send me grain one by one if they knew that I didn’t have money to use elixirs to pay the bill. Those people probably don’t want to use this method. It’s really annoying.
, I still have something to do, everyone, I will go back now, everyone can continue to work." Li Cong's words were like a time bomb in the hearts of these people, and they didn't know when it might explode. It turns out that this guy
With so many back-ups, he actually went to several nearby counties and cities to collect grain. If all the grain was transported here, what use would the grain they hoarded in the warehouse be? Although there is not necessarily a lot of grain from other places.
, but this represents an attitude, which means that Li Cong can get food from everywhere. At this moment, each of them regretted that their intestines were green. What happened to them just now? Did they shit hard? This is not it. They just think about it now.
I'm afraid it won't be that simple to cooperate with Li Cong. Li Cong went out with a smile, but they were all chilling.
This province can be said to be a major grain-producing province. Of course, the pattern will definitely change in the future, because now it is their province that is close to the Warcraft Mountains. In the future, it will definitely become very close to the Warcraft Mountains, so
Most of the industries will be connected to the Warcraft Mountains, but that will be a few years later. Now they are still a large agricultural province. It can be said that Li Cong wants to buy food from their county to several counties in the north.
It is still a very easy thing. Even if there is a problem with the transportation on the road, it doesn't matter. With the signs that Li Congjin is spreading money so hard, if the grain merchants over there are unwilling to do it, then it is simply out of their minds. Everyone is worried.
I'm not a fool. In fact, it doesn't matter even if Li Cong doesn't pay for shipping. Everyone knows how rare elixirs are. There are so many alchemists in the world. These alchemists are all weird people.
Some of them have their own money, and they can't spend all the money. Why would they waste their energy on making elixirs to make money? They usually enjoy it. So many elixirs appeared all of a sudden, but not only did they not have the price,
If the fight continues, many people want to buy it, and the price has risen. Coupled with the beast tide in the Warcraft Mountains, there will be no obstacles. It can be said that the most popular thing at this time is medicinal materials.
Now that the business is done, the medicinal materials produced from the Warcraft Mountains have decreased and can be collected in other places, but the price of this elixir has been rising like a rocket.
After Li Cong went out, these people couldn't sit still one by one. It's not bad, this guy came here well prepared. Each of them was a little envious of Zhang Chu at this moment. At least Zhang Chu was the first to eat crabs.
People like this can make a lot of money. Such people are not what they can be, but they can follow. They also want to be treated like Zhang Chu, but they know it by looking at Li Cong's expression.
That is impossible. They must pay more than Zhang Chu. Their cost is twelve cents. As long as Li Cong can buy it at this price, of course, it will be replaced by medicinal materials. In this way, they
You can still make double the profit. This is safer. Everyone has their own Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, so they quickly dispersed. Originally, they were going to discuss how to deal with Li Cong. But now it seems that things have changed.
How to please Li Cong so that Li Cong can reward them with some business.
After Li Cong went out, he went to the porridge shed in the south. Because the previous arrangements were better, Cui boss was indeed a talented worker. He made the front place into a huge open space. It can accommodate up to five hundred people.
Five hundred people came in at one time. If there are too many, after coming in and getting the porridge, they immediately go out through the door on the other side. When the waiters here see that there is almost no one around, they let people in immediately, so generally speaking, the number of people who come in
There are only five hundred people. If there are not so many people coming in, there will be no such thing as chaos. These people will not be able to cause trouble one by one. Originally, the grain merchants were looking for a lot of people to come in.
They are making trouble, but in this way they are divided into different groups. If you rely on the ability of one or two people to make trouble, it seems that you are looking for death. Even dozens of people are useless. Boss Cui found it from the refugees.
I have come out of hundreds of nursing homes, and these people will work for you if you are given a bowl of rice. And I heard that it is just to deal with those who are looking for trouble. Everyone's face is very determined. If they don't let them eat, they will be killed immediately.
Pulled out and beaten to death, these refugees also know that only by having good order can they get their own bowl of porridge faster.
Li Cong brought several hundred more workers from Zhang Chu's house, and they built more than a hundred cauldrons. They could move up and down even faster. Basically, they could pass a thousand people in five minutes.
, the people making porridge here will not stop. Each of these workers is also covered in sweat in this winter, but seeing the longing eyes of the refugees, they forget their own fatigue.
This kind of thing would never happen in this very selfish society, but people's hearts are made of flesh. If you are full of food, there is no reason for others to be hungry, so everyone works very hard.
Those who work hard, and the boss said that their wages will be paid in grain. The guys here are paid one tael of silver a day, and the refugees who are helping are thirty kilograms of rice a day. This is already a very good salary, especially for
Those refugees, they thought it would be nice if they could do a favor and get an extra bowl, but they didn't expect that they could get so much now.
"Brother's method is very good, so those newcomers who want to do it should also take a look." Li Cong said while looking at the orderly scene. Li Cong has seen many such methods on the earth, but
This is the first time here. This boss's head can be said to be very good. This is definitely the first time this kind of thing has happened here. Someone can actually imitate this advanced concept of later generations in this place. I have to say that it is
An innovative one.
"Haha, brother-in-law, please stop talking about this. I just thought of it at the last minute. In fact, if it weren't for my brother-in-law's charity, I think at least half of these people would starve to death." Boss Cui said embarrassedly.
"Haha, this, it's nothing. You can't bring money with you in life, and you can't take it with you in death. It doesn't matter if you come out to do good deeds. Sometimes our money just sleeps there, but this money is very needed.
Yes, look at them. They are actually very simple. Just a bowl of porridge can make them happy. In fact, now we have no way to provide them with three meals a day. We can only give them one bowl of porridge a day.
But this way they all have hope of living. I did this a little too late. When I came over just now, the little girl was so hungry that she ate everywhere.
Saved." Li Cong thought that the little girl on the road had a bulging belly because she had eaten a lot of dirt, and her internal organs must have been destroyed. There is no way to keep the girl alive. Such a thing
It can be said that there are everywhere around here, and it is very painful for Li Cong to think of these.
"Brother-in-law, you are not a fairy. It is not easy to do this. There are so many rich people from the south. Although their family property has been lost a lot, many of them still have the ability to come out and handle this matter. But one
Everyone is locked up, they are all heartless people." Boss Cui was very angry when he thought about the dignitaries who came out of Chengli, Jiangning. None of these guys have any love at all. Outside,
Ninety percent of these refugees are people from the southern provinces, and they can be considered half of their fellow villagers. There are too many of these people to pay, and a few thousand taels of silver is still no problem. But not even one of them came to ask.
None, which is really annoying.
"Brother, it's not always like this. Look, there are some carriages coming over there. Those people don't seem to be ours." Following Li Cong's eyes, he saw that there were indeed more than a dozen carriages coming over.
, it can be seen that the people pulling it are all grain, otherwise the mules and horses would not be so strenuous. Although dozens of carts of grain are not a big amount, after all, this can be regarded as the first wave of people to donate. Look at the people in front.
Li Cong didn't know him either, but Boss Cui seemed to know him.
"It looks like we are old friends in Jiangning." Boss Cui said, but for a while he still couldn't tell who the manager in front of him was. He just looked familiar. After all, a long time had passed and he didn't know who he was.
Maybe I remember a servant. I vaguely remember where this person was standing. He should be the manager of some big boss in Jiangning Chengli. I just can’t remember who this guy is. He seems to be a good guy. He has dozens of cars.
There is also a lot of food. They don't have Li Cong's ability to buy cheap food. Their food is very expensive to buy. These dozens of carts are not a small amount. People from Jiang Ningcheng are all
The loss was not small, and the person in front of me was pretty good.
"Slave Wang Gui pays his respects to you two masters." The leading steward came over and transported dozens of carts of grain from his home, then came in front of Boss Cui and Li Cong and said that he was Wang Gui. Boss Cui only knew about this guy.
Who is it?
The Wang family, the Wang family of Jiang Ningcheng, can be regarded as a big family in the south. No wonder his family can still produce so much food after experiencing such a disaster. This is really an extraordinary family. The Wang family's industries are spread all over the south.
Several provinces, but the most important place is Jiangningcheng. Their family lost at least two-thirds of their family in this catastrophe, but compared with other wealthy families in Jiangningcheng, they are still very good, at least they are still capable.
So done.
"Wang Gui, are your master and wife okay? How come they are all here?" Boss Cui said to this guy. In the past, the Cui family was also a big family, and the two families had close contacts. Only Li never
Just get to know these stewards.
"Well, my master didn't come out. Now our eldest son is in charge of the house. After all, the eldest son is still young. When he came here, he didn't have a clue about the things here. Our wife ordered us to take care of the food. She was earlier.
God has said this, but our Wang family is now not as good as before, so we can't do anything about it. Now that we see Mr. Cao doing this, we also feel that Qi An has done too little. Isn't this why our wife started from herself?
I used my own money to ask the younger one to buy some food and send it over. Although it is not a lot, it can be regarded as our sincerity. Speaking of which, these people are all our fellow villagers. We can still more or less do it outside.
They are so pitiful that they have food and clothing. In addition, two adults, this is a little thought from our servants of the Wang family. It is not much. It is our monthly silver this month, only two hundred taels. We also want to buy food and ship it over.
Yes, but we know that Mr. Cao can buy cheap food, so we will give the money to Mr. Cao. If we buy food, we will probably lose a lot." A boy behind the old housekeeper gave a bag of silver to
After lifting it up, who said this world is cold-blooded? These people in front of me are very conscientious.
"Wang Gui, your family is really kind-hearted. There are also a lot of big families in our Jiangning city. Although they have suffered a lot of losses, it is still no problem to come up with more than a dozen carts of food. But
Each of these people are like turtles. They have read the books of saints and sages for so many years in vain. If I ask them to read them, they have read them into the stomach of dogs. These people really cannot be called human beings.
." Boss Cui felt angry when he thought about those people who are unkind and greedy for wealth. If you don't come to help when something happens here, some of them even invest their money in grain, waiting to make a profit when the price of grain rises. Thinking of it
One by one, these people wanted to beat them all to death.
Wang Gui said a few words to the two of them and then directed them to unload the truck. Li Cong also knew that those people couldn't force it, but with the Wang family in front and Jiangning Weaving here, they would spend the next few days
I'm sure they will deliver food. It's just a question of how much. I guess the food sent by each family can't be too much. It's probably only a dozen trucks, so the amount is just one thing. But there is always something to do.
To be continued...
