Chapter 499

Businessmen have always only valued profits, and it is obvious that Lin Qiaoyun, who can manage such a large store in Huiyanzhuang, is not a benevolent and moral stupid person.

Ke Guan accidentally opened his mouth to show weakness and threw out the bait. As long as Lin Qiaoyun pays back the price, everything will come to fruition.

Unexpectedly, Lin Qiaoyun didn't even think about it, so she spoke directly and flatly refused.

Guanshi Ke's enthusiasm for negotiation was stifled in the cradle, and he was extremely embarrassed for a while, and asked with a stiff smile, "Madam Lin, what's the explanation? Since it's for sale, it's not common sense to shop around and the one with the highest price will win." what?"

"Hehe, that's the truth." Lin Qiaoyun smiled lightly, and did not deny it, but the next moment, she raised her eyebrows, "There has been a severe drought for two months, and the situation in Qingcheng is not very optimistic. I don't know where you belong and why Sent?"

Seeing her smiling but her words were as sharp as a weapon, Guanshi Ke's heart trembled, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he continued to whitewash the peace, "We are just a small grain merchant in Qingcheng, with no reputation. During the season, the outskirts of the city could not receive food, so they ran here. I also asked Mrs. Lin to see us coming from a long distance, and open the door for us."

"Then, may Manager Ke need other food besides my family's rice?" Lin Qiaoyun suddenly changed his tone, and his attitude was a little loose.

Ke Guan was suspicious, changed his mind, and half-truthfully said: "It's a long way to go, it would be good if we can buy more." The implication is that the more the better, as to how much, it's inconvenient disclose.

Sure enough, it was an old woman who was cunning.

Lin Qiaoyun put down the cup suddenly, and the smile on her lips became colder, "Since Guanshi Ke hides his head and shows his tail, and is unwilling to share the truth, it is impossible to do this business if you want to. Second brother, see off the guests."

"Sister-in-law Lin, you..." It is said that a woman can turn her face faster than a book, and it is true. This statement is inconsistent with asking someone to go out. After all, Ke Guanshi is a respectable person, and he was made things difficult by a small town woman. Furious, he shook his sleeves and didn't want to talk more, "Let's go."

The business talks between the two parties collapsed. When they came to the door, Lin Qiaoyun's crisp voice sounded again, "Second brother, go back and say hello to the rice and grain store in the town. Don't listen to the words of outsiders and lose your life-saving rations."

Hearing this, Guanshi Ke paused, turned his head and glared at Lin Qiaoyun, his tone was already unkind, "What you have done is not benevolent, I have no grievances or enmity with you, why do you want to ruin my business."

"Hmph, is it possible that I should just sit idly by and ignore the thieves harboring evil intentions and harming the people of the town?" Lin Qiaoyun snorted coldly, and choked back unceremoniously.

Ke Guanshi was taken aback when he heard the words, then frowned, "It's nonsense!"

"Oh, I'm talking nonsense? You have come so far away and want to buy rice. I'm afraid that Luoyang paper is expensive in Qingcheng at this time, and it can't make ends meet. Qingcheng has a population of tens of thousands, and my town can't do more than this ration. Even leaving some for the winter can’t fill the vacancy in Qingcheng, and sooner or later the imperial court will order to collect food from towns, and then, what do you ask the people in the town to eat.” From the first time she saw Guanshi Ke, Lin Qiaoyun had no intention of selling grain.

Rice in Qingcheng is expensive, and merchants come down to buy it at a low price, and when the court increases taxes, the people will be even worse.

And the man at the door was far from expecting that the town was like the bottom of a well, but the woman in front of him was firmly in control of the overall situation.

"You, who are you?"
