Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 161
Jiang Zhiyue smoked out of Lin Yiyi's anger at Lin Yiyi who planned to push her out of the oxcart with kindness and revenge, and she felt much more at ease in her heart.

After she left, Fang Nian withdrew his apologetic gaze and tried to appease the irritable Lin Yiyi.

Fang Nian's voice was gentle and clear. After rearranging Lin Yiyi's clothes, he followed her back again and again to help her calm down.

Lin Yiyi's clothes were not completely damaged, but were torn apart. Now that she was dressed and covered up a little, it was impossible to see anything.

What Fang Nian was thinking was to go back as soon as possible. At this time, most of the households were cooking at home, and there were not many people outside. Maybe if he was lucky, he would not meet anyone.

But Lin Yiyi seemed to be stupefied in place, she only hated to look at the direction where the two people left in the bullock cart just now, and stared at her eyes as big as copper bells.

Fang Nian called out to attract her attention, "Yiyi, let's go quickly, we won't be able to see the way clearly any later."

Only then did Lin Yiyi recover and look at Fang Nian. When she withdrew her gaze, the vicious eyes in her eyes were not idle, and Fang Nian was taken aback.

But soon, Lin Yiyi suppressed the cruelty in her eyes.Fang Nian cared: "Yiyi, are you okay?"

Lin Yiyi's eyes were filled with tears, she looked at Fang Nian and said sadly: "I regard you as a good sister, but I was bullied just now, and you didn't come to save me, I hate you so much."

After finishing speaking, Lin Yiyi shook off Fang Nian's hand and ran away.

Fang Nian wanted to argue that it wasn't that she didn't save her, but that she fell off the car so suddenly that she couldn't react in time.

When she and the driver came over, Lin Yiyi was caught by two thieves and almost insulted.

She knew that even if she stepped forward, it would be useless, so she could only wait for that man and that girl to save her.

But... no matter what, she was really a little timid just now and didn't go forward to save her personally.

It was getting late now, Fang Nian was worried about Lin Yiyi who ran away alone, and quickly chased after her.

In Lin Yiyi's heart, she and Fang Nian came out together, but now she is the only one being insulted, which made it difficult for her to calm down.

Since they came out together, if Fang Nian really regarded her as a good sister, he should share her difficulties.Saying so many useless words is nothing more than the fact that she was not the one who was insulted.

After Fang Nian and Lin Yiyi left, those hooligans were hung upside down on the branches one by one, and their faces were flushed with blood flowing back.

Seeing that the two of them ran away in the end, they stayed in panic and said: "Don't go, put us down."

But no one heard their cries, it was already evening, and those who wanted to go home had already returned, and they were destined to hang there.

Unfortunately, most of the passers-by on the second day were women or girls. Seeing so many people hanging upside down and looking fierce, let alone rescued them, they wished they could run faster than rabbits.

So until the afternoon of the second day, they didn't meet any pedestrian passing by on this road who could put them down.

Until another day later, Saburo saw these people hanging upside down when he was passing by here on an errand arranged by Fei Xi, and cut all the ropes with a knife.

Those people hit the ground again in a daze, their anger reaching its peak at this moment.

Several people cursed while untying the rope: "You bastard, don't know how to be gentle!"

"I broke my head, watch how I teach you a lesson!"

The people who had untied the rope stomped their numb feet, then roared and rushed towards Sanlang.

Saburo had an unbelievable look on his face, this group of confounding things, he was obviously the one who saved them, and now not only scolding him, but also making a move!
Simply unreasonable!
Saburo beat up these people angrily, tied them up again after their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and hung them in their original positions.

"It seems that there is a reason for you to be hung up here, just keep hanging up, goodbye!"

After Jiang Zhiyue left, Jiang Si took her straight back to Longxian Village.

In the next few days, Jiang Zhiyue calmed down, until the person sent by Ouyang Ming arrived a few days later.

Because once this grain store opened, it would be equivalent to cutting off many people's income, and even causing many people to lose money.

After all, due to the scarcity of grain, many grain merchants buy grain at low prices, hold all the grain in their hands, and then sell it to the people at high prices.

When Jiang Zhiyue's grain store opens, it will definitely stand on the opposite side from other large and small grain stores. The shopkeepers and servants sent by Ouyang Ming are all retired from the battlefield, and their skills are not a problem.

After they came, they went directly to Bielai Bookstore in the town to find the shopkeeper of the bookstore, and asked him to pass the word on his behalf, telling Jiang Zhiyue that he had arrived.

In the morning of that day, Jiang Zhiyue received the letter, and after telling her family members, she went to the town alone to meet these people.

Before these people came, Ou Yangming had carefully instructed them to treat Jiang Zhiyue like their Fei family.

These people were also obedient. When they saw Jiang Zhiyue coming, they greeted her respectfully, and did not look down on her at all just because she was a woman.

"My subordinate, Qin Jin, has seen the girl before." This man was tall and slender, he didn't look like a military general, but he looked like a literati.

"Subordinate Feng San (Feng Si) has seen the girl."

The two people who spoke later looked somewhat similar, and combined with their names, they should be a pair of brothers.Jiang Zhiyue also greeted them, her neither humble nor overbearing appearance made people look up to her.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore is called Pan Wen. The last time Jiang Zhiyue brought Ming Yuanqing to buy scripts, the shopkeeper of the bookstore still had some impressions because she was accosted, so when Jiang Zhiyue came to the bookshop with Ouyang Ming's jade pendant, he really scared him one jump.

He really didn't expect that the melon he ate that day would actually be eaten by the person on the tip of his master's heart.

Now the storybook written by Jiang Zhiyue is still being serialized, and the popularity is only increasing. In addition, the paper produced in the papermaking workshop established by Jiang Zhiyue is only sold in Bielai Bookstore and another bookstore, Bielai Bookstore It is now in full swing.

Shopkeeper Pan knew that both the script and the new paper were written by Jiang Zhiyue, so he admired her even more.

Shopkeeper Pan asked: "Miss, have you had lunch yet?"

"Not yet."

Jiang Zhiyue came as soon as she received the letter, and in her haste, she missed her lunch.

"There is a new restaurant in the town called Baiweilou. I heard that the food there is good. Why don't I be the host today and invite the girl and the three new brothers to have a taste."

The shopkeeper of the bookstore called the boy in the store to let him watch the store, and then took Jiang Zhiyue and others to Baiweilou.

……

After dinner, Shopkeeper Pan went back to the bookstore alone, while Jiang Zhiyue took Qin Jin and Feng San and Feng Si brothers to the shop she bought.

"There is a courtyard behind this shop. The three of you can live here. If you lack anything, you can buy it yourself. I will give you some money later."

Jiang Zhiyue regarded the three of them as hired to work, and even talked with them about their monthly wages.

Jiang Zhiyue didn't plan to live in the Sanjin house connected to this small courtyard, anyway, the few rooms here are enough for them.

Because Ou Yangming had told them before coming here, everything was under Jiang Zhiyue's command.

Seeing the empty shop, Qin Jin asked: "Girl, everything is ready now, but where should we get this food?"

Jiang Zhiyue handed the key to Qin Jin and said, "I'll take you to another yard later. I'll have people deliver the food there on the fifteenth and last day of every month, and you can find someone to bring it to the shop."

Qin Jin asked again: "I also hope that the girl will tell me whether the price of this food is based on the current price of food in the market, or whether the girl has other arrangements."

Jiang Zhiyue said indifferently: "You should inquire about the food price yourself, and try to keep the price as equal to last year's price as possible."

She didn't directly tell Qin Jin and others the price of food in the past, but asked them to set the price by themselves after inquiring. If they can't even do this little thing well, how can they use them with peace of mind.

But Qin Jin was taken aback when he heard Jiang Zhiyue's words. The price of grain was the same as last year's, but the price of grain now is more than four times that of the first half of last year. Miss Jiang wants to bring down the price of grain by herself?
If the price of grain is lowered so much at once, they are not afraid that other grain merchants will come to make trouble.

I am afraid that their food supply will not be available.

After all, the price of their food is so low, it will definitely attract the attention of the common people, and at that time, all the common people will flock here to buy food, I am afraid that the food will not be enough.

"You don't have to worry about the food. If you don't have enough in the early stage, go to the village to find me, and I will find someone to send to my friend."

Qin Jin couldn't help feeling in his heart how powerful the friend Jiang Zhiyue said was, that he was able to get so much grain and sell it at a low price now, and he was afraid that he would lose a lot of money.

Qin Jin thought for a while with his hands crossed and said, "I have a plan to talk to Miss Jiang."

Jiang Zhiyue motioned for him to speak.

Qin Jindao: "Young girl's actions have already offended many grain merchants. In this case, it is impossible to live in harmony no matter how much or how little you offend. So I think I can cheat them a lot."

Jiang Zhiyue became interested and asked, "Oh? Why did you cheat? Tell me in detail."

Qin Jin said like a profiteer: "It depends on whether the food in the hands of the girl's friend can support it."

Jiang Zhiyue motioned to him but said it was okay, as for the food, he didn't have to worry about it.

Seeing her like this, Qin Jin assumed that she was not short of food.

He said: "Nowadays, the price of food in the market is ridiculously high. If there is a company whose food price is lower than theirs, those people must try their best to buy our food at a low price and hinder our business."

"We can set the price of grain [-] to [-]% lower than theirs first, and let them buy our grain. They will think that we don't have much grain. After several times, we will sell it at the price we have set to sell to the people. food."

"If those grain merchants can't stabilize their mentality, they will definitely find a way to sell the grain in their hands again. We can arrange people to buy it at a lower price. Not only will we not lose the grain, but we can also earn the price difference."

After hearing Qin Jin's words, Jiang Zhiyue coughed lightly to hide the smile in her throat.

She had already imagined how those grain merchants would jump angrily after they jumped into Qin Jin's trap.

She smiled and said, "Then I will leave this matter to you, just do as you say."
