Chapter 241: 241: The Battle of Grain Shops (2)

Chapter 241 Chapter 241

When Jiang Yanji began to take measures, food prices had soared more than nine times in peacetime.

The family has its own grain storehouse, which is rich in grain storage. It does not worry about eating and drinking. Instead, it can take advantage of this opportunity to sell the old grain stored in the grain store at a high price. In contrast, the people have very little savings in their hands. Can't open the pot.

At this time, the rise in food prices was fierce, and many people were worried about it.

Not young women hovering in front of various grain shops, waiting anxiously for the food to be cheaper, but do not want to increase prices every time.

"Well, if you don't buy it anymore, you have a little savings at home, I'm afraid you can't afford even a meter of rice ..."

"... you can still afford rice. Our guy broke his leg a while ago. He spent all his family's money to get medicine for him. Today, he only slaughtered the only hen that can only lay eggs. Stew him ... I don't know, how can I live this day ... "

"I don't know what happened, why the food is so expensive. Then again, the cubs in the family will be hungry ..."

Skillful women ca n’t cook without rice. Even if they are hardworking and capable, they have no money in their hands, no food at home, and a few people in the family will be hungry.

Grain shops are not good halls. Where will the price drop because they are poor?

"This world is sadder every day!" A woman sighed, and said, "Some time ago, I helped wash dishes at the Chengkou tea shop to make loose change. I heard several military grandfathers talk about what county in Cangzhou Somewhere, there is a big mess, and the river is close to you ... "

The short distance means that the war may burn here, and it also means that there will be countless exiles who fled here.

Fighting or something, which house and household are not scared to snore?

If their young men were recruited as soldiers, there would be no return.

As for the refugees ... when people reach that point and burn and plunder, what can't they do?

Maybe it's worse than the bandit robbing the house, but young women just feel the whole body trembling.

Anyway, they have silver deposits in their homes, and at this time they can go to the grain shop to buy food.

Other poorer people can only dig wild grass in the mountains, peel the bark, and feed. The food is not as good as the old sow in the pigsty at home.

"Do you want to stop looking at other grain shops? Maybe some cheaper ..."

A woman in dark linen was holding a vegetable basket hesitantly, and hesitantly looked at the grain shop not far away.

There are a lot of grain shops in the city.

"I knew this, I bought it early ... I thought it was expensive at that time, who knows that the price of food is higher every day ..."

"No? Before that time, I still felt that my hair was long and short. The weather will be smooth this year, and the food will be cheaper than before. Wait a few days ... Now it's OK, it's so much expensive, I don't know the day What happened ... "

Several women went along with each other, talking without a word.

At this moment, a child in patched coat came running from the street with a smile and pursed loudly.

A woman raised her hand to stop the child and asked, "Well, what did you just say?"

It seemed that the child had not been stopped for the first time, and answered naturally with a loud voice.

"The grain shop in Suzaku Street Dog Tail Hutong is the cheapest. It is 20% cheaper than other shops."

"How much cheaper is 20% cheaper?"

The child shook his head. "I don't know. The grain shop owner said so, it's 20% cheaper!"

After all, it's just a urchin. Xu Ye knows that those children can't remember the price of food and simply let them remember the shortest "advertisement".

Several women looked at each other.

"Would you like to check it out?"

It's a penny that can be saved now, even if it goes around more than half of the city.

"Go check it out, it's not far from here."

With a few words, several women have decided where to go.

In order to attract these customers more, Jiang Yanji specially divided the area where the three grain shops are located into three.

Radiate around the area where the grain shop is located. The "mobile advertisement" employed in this area will focus on this grain shop.

When the women arrived, there was a long line in front of the grain shop.

Upon hearing the talk of the people nearby, the price of grain was still high, but it was indeed a lot cheaper than the few grain shops I had seen before.

"It's ... cheap and not good. Will the food they sell have worms ... or some other ..."

He has sharp ears and can hear discussions coming from the crowd.

Immediately someone jumped out and said, "Someone bought two buckets before, I've seen it, it's okay."

There are more than one people who are worried about the quality of food sold and sold by the grain shops. After listening to it, they were even more worried.

"It's weird ... Everyone else is going up, but they are going down ... Don't they all say that the businessman is unscrupulous ..."

A man who lined up to buy food was dead, and said, "What do you know? Don't you know who the owner of this shop is?" On the ground, why is it cheap? Do n’t buy it if you do n’t like it. ”

"Hey, why are you so rushing when you talk? How did you know that the owner of this grain shop would be Liu Junshou ..."

Ordinary people may not have heard who Liu Yan is, but when it comes to She County, the first impression is that they have money and food, and their heart is okay.

With the promotion of "advertising", the long queues lined up in front of the grain shop became longer and longer. Many people who came late were worried that they could not buy grain. Yanming grain shop is absolutely enough to store grain!

Outside the crowd, Jiang Yanji and Xu Yan sat in the carriage.

The latter looked at the crowd and was worried.

With so many people buying food, he was really worried that there was not enough food in stock.

The power of advertising also exceeded his expectations, and the number of people lining up to buy food was still growing.

Jiang Yanji saw his worry at a glance.

Plainly, "For the people, today's food prices are still too high. Most of them just wait and see and don't buy in large quantities, so our grain storage can definitely sustain it. Yes, let you prepare Are you prepared, man? "

Xu Yan arched his hand, "Hui Langjun, Xi has arranged properly."

"Well, there are more and more people waiting for the grain shop to wait and see, and then you let those people go out."

Jiang Yanji's goal this time was to curb grain prices, not to sell thousands of stone grains at today's high prices.

She not only asked Xu Yan to hire children and local gangsters to make “mobile advertisements” for the grain shop, and drank all over the street, but also made him prepare a few trusts. These trusts were not just to fool the people who bought grain, but to shake other Grain shop dispensers.

Jiang Yanji put on a price war. On the first day, he created the illusion that there is no bottom line for grain storage, and other grain shops will naturally be nervous.

Without the patronage, to whom are the high-priced grains sold in their shops?
