Chapter 169 Unexpected Change ([-])

"Second Aunt, as long as the Yao family is still there, the sky will not fall. Let Second Uncle rest peacefully!" Yao Cunhui said softly.

No matter what, no matter what the purpose is, Mrs. Mao has always helped her. Without Mrs. Mao, it would not be so easy for her to turn the situation around and become the master of Yao's inner house.Isn't the reason why Mrs. Mao resents herself because she has been favored by her father but her second uncle has not?The Mao family was just grievances for her husband!

She didn't have any deep hatred with them.

"You don't need to talk sarcastic here, get out!" Mao glared at her bitterly.

"Shut up!" Master Yao scolded in a low voice, panting and said softly: "You all go out, sister-in-law, I'm sorry for your trouble, please go back too! Huier, Second Uncle has something to say to you."

Seeing her husband staring at her stubbornly, Mao could only nod in agreement, and gave Yao Cunhui a warning look before leaving.

Ma Shi smiled and said a few words such as "have a good rest" and went out.

When Yao Cunhui came out of Tangli Courtyard, he hurried to Zhuque South Street.

In today's main store, from the shopkeeper in charge to the errands, everyone has solemn faces and restrained breaths. There is a tense and gloomy atmosphere in the whole courtyard.

The shopkeeper Hao has already helped those farmers to send them away for the time being yesterday, but even so, this sum of money must be paid. At present, we can only discuss with the representative of the other party, and pay according to the market price instead of five times the market price. As for the result? How, right now it's hard to say.

When Yao Cunhui came to the main store, shopkeeper Hao had already sent people to the grain store and warehouse of Min's family to deal with the aftermath.According to the report from the buddy he sent to check the situation: it was completely burned, and there was not a single grain left!

"This fire is strange!" Shopkeeper Hao sighed and shook his head, but there was nothing he could do.

Yao Cunhui thinks so too.

In this way, no one knows whether Master Yao Er bought grain or grass clippings, there is no proof!

The two of them were discussing how to solve this matter thoroughly, when the buddy came to report: Mr. Bai, who bought grain, is here!
Shopkeeper Hao smiled coldly, and his eyes froze: "Second Miss, you don't need to come forward, the little old man goes to see how much this rising star weighs!"

"You already have an idea in mind?" Yao Cunhui smiled slightly.

Shopkeeper Hao said with a faint smile: "It's not a good idea, just buy now and sell now! Didn't he use tricks to intimidate the second owner? The little old man asked him for the price openly!"

Yao Cunhui was hidden behind the partition, listening to the duel between shopkeeper Hao and Bai Muyuan, she couldn't help but be amazed and amazed!
Shopkeeper Hao, as the head shopkeeper of Yao Family Rice Shop, really deserves his reputation!

After some eloquent, meticulous, and well-founded analysis, Bai Muyuan was almost speechless!
The central meaning expressed by shopkeeper Hao is very clear. As an imperial merchant, Yao Jia Mixing’s first concern is people’s livelihood, and the target of selling grain is the general public; the Western Regions are at war, implying that Bai Muyuan’s purchase of so much grain at this time is a Thinking of exotic goods to live in, with bad intentions!
In the end, shopkeeper Hao said frankly: If Mr. Bai is really determined to buy these two thousand stones of high-quality japonica rice from the Yao family rice shop, the Yao family will not sell them unless the price is twice the market price.

Bai Muyuan sneered in her heart, begged a few words for cheap and expressed a few words of dissatisfaction with shopkeeper Hao, and agreed, asking for food to be paid after the third day!
Shopkeeper Hao immediately nodded in agreement.

"Then it's settled, the shopkeeper Hao Lao will deliver the food to—"

"I'm sorry!" Shopkeeper Hao said indifferently: "For customers who purchase more than a thousand shi at one time, the Yao family rice line will sell it and don't give it away. Please send someone to pick it up! We only send [-] shi!"

"What kind of rule is this? Shopkeeper Hao is not targeting someone like Bai, is he?" Bai Muyuan glanced at Shopkeeper Hao with a half-smile.

"You're overthinking," shopkeeper Hao said calmly, "According to Yao's Rice Shop's experience over the years, even if the family employs a large number of long-term workers, they only buy no more than a hundred shi of rice at a time, which is a normal consumption range. "After finishing speaking, he gave Bai Muyuan a meaningful look.

"The rules are set by you, if that's the case, that's fine!" Bai Muyuan smiled gently, "I'll send someone to pick it up myself, so I don't need to bother your guys!"

Shopkeeper Hao nodded slightly and gave a salute, but remained silent.

Bai Muyuan also nodded, and before leaving, she took a deep look at shopkeeper Hao and sneered secretly.The small grain shops in the surrounding area and the capital are under his control for the time being, even if the Yao family wants to buy grain from other stores at a high price, they can't do it!And the peasants begging for money—

In a few days, the Yao Family Rice Shop will be closing down!
"Bai Muyuan probably won't let it go!" Shopkeeper Hao sighed deeply, "I don't know when the master will come back!"

"It should be soon, shopkeeper Hao, don't worry!" Yao Cunhui sighed softly looking at the high and blue sky.

Two nights ago.Jinling.Thank you.Yuhuatang Xie Fuyun and his wife's bedroom.

Xie Fuyun and his beloved wife had just had a less intense exercise, and at this time they were hugging his beloved wife's plump and soft body, lovingly kissing her cheeks and slender neck.

It made the person in his arms whisper impatiently, Xie Fuyun let her go with a low smile, let her rest on his arm, twisted a strand of her hair with his other hand and put it under his nose to sniff, He said softly: "Father-in-law passed by Jinling Wharf today and has already set off for Beijing."

To transport grain back to Beijing from Pupu in Shanghai, it is naturally the most convenient and quick way to take the canal waterway.

"Is dad okay?" Yao Cunjia asked quickly, and then he sighed in frustration: "Since I passed Jinling, dad didn't come to see me..."

"At this time, how can father-in-law have such a leisurely mood?" Xie Fuyun said with a smile: "I rushed to the pier to meet him, he is fine, don't worry!"

"So, all the food has been bought smoothly?" Yao Cunjia asked again hastily.

"I didn't ask about that," Xie Fuyun said with a smile, "However, he seems to be in good spirits."

When Weng and his son-in-law met today, they didn't mention a word about business matters at all, they just made a few homely remarks, and then hurriedly said goodbye.Xie Fuyun couldn't help secretly praising him, he thought highly of this father-in-law who was too shrewd in the business field.

"That's good." Yao Cunjia gently stroked his abdomen with his hand, and sighed: "I don't know what's going on in Beijing!"

"Didn't Second Sister keep communicating with you?"

"Even if something really happened at home, how could she tell me?"

"Well, someone from the weaving workshop is going to Beijing, I'll ask someone to inquire about it!"

As shopkeeper Hao expected, two days later, another person came to buy grain, the same two thousand shi.Shopkeeper Hao and Yao Cunhui knew without guessing that this person must be with Bai Muyuan.

Shopkeeper Hao responded with a sneer, but set the delivery date at ten days later. The reason was: the new grain purchased by the Yao family was on the way, and the food supply would not be available until ten days later at the latest!
The people from all walks of life sent by the Yao family to buy grain are under the control of Bai Muyuan, and the effect of the harvest is naturally clear to the other party. The so-called grain is still on the way, but it is just an excuse to delay time. The other party is cold With a cold smile, he immediately agreed and paid the deposit.

"Second miss, will the master really be able to come back in time?" Shopkeeper Hao was worried.

"Don't worry!" Yao Cunhui said softly: "We made an appointment with Dad at the beginning. If everything goes well, we don't need to send people back and forth. After such a long time, no one came back to send letters? Just these three days Within five days, Dad should be back too!"

"In case it's overdue—"

"Then delay for a few more days," Yao Cunhui raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly: "After all, we just sold two thousand shi earlier, so it is inevitable that we will have to wait a little longer to prepare for the next two thousand shi! Why don't you pretend to be generous and put on a high profile?"

There is no need to delay, after four days, Master Yao really came back!Only then did Jingzhong Rice Company know that Master Yao had gone to Shanghai Pu to buy grain from Nanyang merchants!

Moreover, Mr. Yao has already signed a grain purchase agreement with Nanyang merchants, and Nanyang grain merchants will become the new suppliers of Yaojia rice line!
And Master Yao returned to Beijing on this trip, and brought back five thousand shi of new grain with the boat!The grains are white and plump, and when held in the hand, they feel delicate to the touch, exuding a comforting faint fragrance of rice fat.
As soon as this incident happened, the entire northern grain industry was shaken!Including Bai Muyuan.

No one thought that Master Yao would find another way to surpass Da Zhou and set his sights overseas!Everyone was amazed and admired: After all, he is an old businessman who has been in the shopping mall for decades, and his thinking and thinking are beyond comparison!Only he can think of this method!

Bai Muyuan and his son were dumbfounded, they were so shocked that they couldn't recover for a while!

"This is impossible! This is impossible!" Bai Muyuan's handsome face was ashamed, and she murmured this sentence repeatedly.

"I said that the Yao family would not be taken down so easily, alas, you just don't believe me!" Master Bai sighed, and closed his eyes in pain: "Actually, we can take it step by step, you don't have to—"

"Father!" Bai Muyuan interrupted her father's words: "I admit to being wronged about this matter, and I will explain it to my master!"

"You confess, can you afford to confess! Master——I will kill you!" Master Bai couldn't bear to turn his head away, a cloudy tear overflowed from the corner of his eyes.

"Don't worry, dad," Bai Muyuan smiled miserably, "Master won't let me die!"

If he dies, it means that he has completely lost this round. His master is not a person who is willing to admit defeat, so he will not let him die easily!
Of course, he was already prepared for half-death.

Master Yao has brought back a steady stream of food, and the Yao family's rice line will never have to worry about running out of food!As for those shopkeepers who were sent to various places to buy grain, in fact, except for the small amount of grain collected in the first batch was real grain, all subsequent actions were simply blindfolded!

"You said that you are fully sure that you can annex Yao's rice shop in one fell swoop, what's the result?" The clear voice was without a trace of resentment, and Jiang Huang's elegant and slender figure standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back looked out with a bit of a bookish air. But it made Bai Muyuan, who was kneeling in the hall, tremble uncontrollably.
