Words like creating a show are like fantasy to people on this planet, but these things are very simple things to Li Cong. Just like now, many people are beginning to understand the power of these things.

"Brother Wu, what are you doing? You don't know how to rest for a while this early in the morning. It's not the busy time for farming. I heard that there are some sporadic monsters outside the city. It's so early to leave the city.

But it’s not very safe.” As soon as a sesame cake stall opened on the road, the boss saw the guy who lived in the same alley as him. The two of them were also chess friends, so they were relatively familiar with each other. Look at the appearance of Brother Wu.

This is why we are leaving the city. What are we going to do now?

"I just came to find you. I didn't expect that my sister saw you, but you saw me. When something happened, you didn't even know that you were still doing business related to grain. You know this, Mr. Cao Ke Cao, he is the one who

The first-class earl, the magician of the emperor's son-in-law." Brother Wu said quickly when he saw that the young man selling sesame seed cakes still looked confused. In fact, for these people, the first-class earl is secondary.

, the most important thing is the emperor’s son-in-law, this is the most important thing.

"How can I not know that one? Isn't he the current head of the Cao family? Anyone who doesn't know anyone in Chengli, Jiangning, must know him. I heard that he doesn't open a porridge shed for refugees in Nancheng. What's wrong?

"What happened?" The guy curled his lips and said, to be honest, because Li Cong went to open a porridge shed, his business was affected to a certain extent. This is also the reason why this guy is unhappy. Originally, this guy

Grain trading is difficult to do. They give it away for free over there and sell it at a higher price here. The result can be imagined. Although Li Cong did something very good for the people, it can be seen that the sesame seed cake seller is not very good.

If you are willing to buy into Li Cong's account, you can go and have porridge yourself, but you won't put aside your own business and wait for a day.

"You idiot, you don't know such important news. You will deserve it if you turn around and you won't be able to handle big things. That's Mr. Cao. I heard that Mr. Cao saw that the price of food in our county was too high, so he started looking at the surrounding areas.

A large amount of grain has been obtained from several counties and cities, and it is about to enter the city. I heard that it seems that you can't even see the side. It is said that after the grain is brought in, it will be sold at the government price. That is, it will be sold at fifteen cents per catty.

Yes, life will be much easier for us people. It’s now a quarter cheaper. If you buy four kilograms of rice, you can get an extra kilogram. Isn’t that a big deal?” Old Man Wu said with a smile.

, I have always heard of price increases of this and that, but I have not heard of price cuts for a long time, and it is still in such a disaster year. In such a year, let alone food. Even other things have to increase their prices vigorously.

As for the price reduction, forget it. If you are not in that mood, no one will be willing to reduce the price, unless you are a kind person or a fool.

"What? The price of fifteen cents, how is this possible? Mr. Cao bought the grain from nearby counties and cities. Although it may be much cheaper than here, it is impossible to drop to this price. The surrounding counties and cities

It costs at least 18 cash to transport the food. I still know this. Could it be that Mr. Cao used his own money to pay for it?" The sesame seed seller said with some disbelief. Nowadays, officials have more money than others.

There are a lot of people. Let’s forget about doing serious things, especially people’s affairs. Unless they encounter something major, such as His Majesty the Emperor’s southern tour or something, these people will do some things to save face, but at this time they

You would never do such a thing.

"I don't know about this. I know that in addition to rice, there is a lot of flour. You should hurry up and buy some. If you pass this village, there is no such store, but it seems that each person can only buy five

Ten kilograms." The old man said anxiously. At this moment, a lot of people have gone to the city gate. It seems that if they arrive late, there will be no more. This is what the elderly are like. Today, they just want to bring food to them.

It has been shipped in, but there is no word yet on when it will start selling.

"Okay, I'll close the stall and go over." When this guy closed the stall, he happily glanced at the street near the grain store. Just wait. The price of twenty-five cents, you guys will be honest.

I'll watch your food get moldy.

There used to be only one million people in this county, but due to the arrival of refugees, the city's population instantly exceeded eight million. If the refugees outside the city are included, the number will be 11 million. This

But they all have to eat. There is a lot of food in their hands, but if they are evenly distributed, there is not much food. Each of these people live their lives looking at the food. Of course, the ones who are most dazed today are the food merchants.

At this time, Fatty Wu looked at his steward and didn't know what to say. This guy had just returned from the North City Gate. The food there had already begun to enter the city. There were huge crowds of people on both sides, and they were all shouting.

Mr. Cao thinks about the people.

"Sir, the situation over at the North City Gate is like this. There is a long line of cars with no end in sight. Our two teams definitely did not have this size before. I think they must be at least hundreds of thousands of tons.

Mr. Cao's family brought the food to the truck personally. This should be true. From the accents of these guys, they are all from the northern counties. It seems that the food was really transported from the north. Mr. Cao

They also announced at the North City Gate that the sales price was fifteen cents per catty stipulated by the imperial court. On the spot, Erye Bai untied thirty carts of grain, and everyone opened their arms to grab it. The scene was really long.

I haven’t seen him in a while.” This guy was still looking intoxicated when he spoke, but little did he know that his master was about to kick this guy to death.

"You bastard, what are you talking about? Get out of here." Mr. Wu kicked his guy out with one kick. Why didn't he have any eyesight? He thought of the two stewards beside Li Cong.

Yes, the people in charge of my affairs are no better than pigs and dogs, they are brainless things.

Boss Wu got angry, but nothing could be changed. Everyone in the room was still sad. Although they had known the news for a long time, the news was news, and the facts were facts. These hundreds of thousands of tons of

Food is no joke. There must be at least three to four hundred thousand tons of food today. If all this food is sold, the city will not need much food for at least a month or two. The food they have hoarded

But what to do? This is just the beginning. It will be fatal if Li Cong continues to get food from other places. Each of these guys will have no way to survive at all. The food will be kept in his hands for one more day.

It is also a fatal matter. None of these people are fools. Storing food also requires money. The longer it takes, the greater their losses will be. They should make a decision.

"Everyone, now is the time for our survival. We have no other way to go. Our food can only be sold to Cao Ke." Fatty Wu said after taking a sip of tea, and did not say anything at this time.

How's the tea? I don't have that particular skill anymore. Now I just want Li Cong to be able to sell his own grain. Even if that guy asked me for anything, I would hold my nose and admit it. In the past, I still wanted to lose less.

, now it seems that it is impossible not to bleed heavily.

"Boss Wu, you are a veteran in the business world, and we all follow you to live our lives. We also know that we sold it to Mr. Cao, but I think the price of twelve yuan is not very satisfactory to Mr. Cao.

Should we lower the price a little more? Although our losses will be relatively large, we can get back some of our capital. It is better than having nothing at all." A guy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said, this

This guy is also one of the top grain merchants in the city. The money is not a lot. This guy is a sideline business. He is also very successful in other industries. These things are very important to him.

Although it is not the main thing for him, the deposit is the largest. This guy also wanted to make a good profit, but he didn't expect that the money was not transferred very much. This is really unlucky. Compared with other people,

He is the one who wants to sell these grains the most, and he himself is already feeling sad. After he sells them, he can make up for it in other ways. If he still cannot exchange the grains for money, what will he have in his hands in the future?

Big problems will also occur in other transactions, and capital chain training is a very critical thing for anyone.

"Everyone, we are all grasshoppers on a rope now. We will all lose. In the past, we came with the idea of ​​​​small losses. Now it seems that Mr. Cao is not so easy to fool. Now we

We're all going to lose a lot, I'm going to give Master Cao the price of nine cents." As soon as Fatty Wu said these words, everyone was dumbfounded. This fucking drop is really too drastic. Nine cents is a loss of a quarter.

One, tens of millions of taels of silver and a loss of 10 million taels of silver. Their masters will definitely not care about this money. If they want to save their own lives, they must use all their property to fill this hole.

Boss Wu thought that he had more than 200 tons of grain in his hands. He spent more than 5,000 taels of grain to get it. Including the management and transportation during this period, the cost would definitely be 6,000.

It was more than 10,000 taels of silver. If it was sold to Li Cong for nine cents, the loss would be huge. One-third of the money was just gone. It is estimated that other people also lost this amount.

This is the result of colluding with the government. Officials will never lose any money. Boss Wu has only had a net worth of 20 million taels in recent years. He originally thought he could make a fortune from this, but he didn’t expect that he

I haven't made any money, and I have to find a way to get rid of this shortfall. When the time comes, I won't have a place to cry, which makes me really embarrassed.

"No, it won't work. Nine cents is too low. We will lose money at this price." An old guy seemed unwilling. Everyone understood his words, but at this juncture, there was no

People are willing to talk about this issue. It's good that nine cents can be sold now. If nine cents can't be sold, this is the most terrible thing. Then the losses may be even more. Cao Ke, they all

Knowing that he would do something like this to beat up a drowned dog, these people are making money from dead people. The more people who starve to death, the more they will make. With their mentality, every one of them still wants to be a loser.

It is impossible for a successful businessman. In the past, it was natural to make money without meeting Li Cong, but it will be impossible in the future.

"Haha, Lao Song, now is the time for business to play tricks on us. In the past, we also thought about how much money we could make by relying on these things. Now there is no money, and what we have is our family property. Think about it.

Because the lines above us are continuous and the masters still support us, we still have a chance to make a comeback. Moreover, although this time it will cause us to bleed a lot, we will not die. If we continue to persist, we will have nothing. Even those masters

Our money will also be lost, and it won’t be as simple as us going bankrupt. The people we rely on don’t understand what business is at all. In their eyes, all transactions are just a business as long as they intervene.

It’s a profitable business, if we lose their money, we will have no other way out but death. They won’t give us a way out either.” Fatty Wu patted his belly and said, 60% of his family property this time was lost.

It needs to be taken out. But many people are not as thorough as this guy. There have been times in history when they have lost money. People who have no money are not people. The most unlucky thing is not that they have no money, but themselves.

He still owes a lot of debt. I guess those who have no money are considered very lucky people.

"Oh, Lao Wu, what you said is true. In fact, I just can't think about it. We have struggled all our lives to have this family business, but what did we get in the end? You are different from me. You are still young.

Those masters have used you many times. You can lose money this time. You can make money back next time. I will be different. I have no chance at all. My sons are also useless. They were sold for money.

I have to take my children and grandchildren across the Warcraft Mountains to the Southern Empire." This guy thought for a while and said, Boss Wu looked at this person in surprise. If the master above this person heard this, he would probably directly

Will be hacked to death, Southern Empire? This is what you can say, you are betraying, it seems that the old man's determination has already come down, he will not give the remaining money to his master after selling the money

Instead, he will take his children and grandchildren to the Southern Empire. Is it really safe to be separated by a Warcraft Mountain Range? This is a transaction of tens of millions of taels, and these amounts of money are not small.

The gentlemen in the country will also take a fancy to this, and they will never let the money go away like that.

"Old Wang, this Southern Empire is not that easy to mess with. The connections we have built here over the years cannot be easily lost. If you really get there, it will be a lot of trouble. Besides, the master above

They won't let us leave just like that. They also have their own friends in the Southern Empire. When the time comes, those people are just a matter of words. We will still be captured, but it won't be so easy to come back at that time.

I'm so excited to be back." Lao Wu and Lao Wang can be said to have been good friends for many years. The two of them were talking about this in the corner right now. Lao Wu knew about the situation of the other businessman. He and Lao Wang

The king's situation was similar. He fled to the Southern Empire. Unfortunately, there was no chance of coming back alive. He died directly in the Warcraft Mountains. Those masters would never pay attention to their heads. As long as you treat the master

We are a little disrespectful, and this is the result of the whole family.

"Haha, of course I know the risks. I have made some preparations over there this time, so it should be no problem." Lao Wang is not too worried about this. He knows what Lao Wu said.

, that guy from the past was just too arrogant, jumping up and down everywhere. He had to make a living in the past, so naturally there would be no such thing, but he didn't know what the result would be.

They promised to keep him safe for the rest of his life, but the cost was definitely not a small amount, and he was also very concerned about how much money he could get from Cao Ke.

In the Magician's Guild, Li Cong is listening to Boss Cui talking about the porridge shed. "We used a total of 13,520 tons of rice and 4,500 tons of flour in the porridge shed today, and rescued about 1.45 million people. Over there in the store, we sold out today.

We have received 26,000 tons of rice and 12,250 tons of flour, both of which have not yet reached the maximum. It is estimated that the first challenge will come in a few days. We still have 450,000 tons of grain." Cui

The boss is very clear about issues like numbers.

"How come there are so few? Don't we have a million tons?" The so-called unlucky person who doesn't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt is is like Li Cong. This day he consumes 70,000 to 80,000 tons of food, which is enough for tens of millions of people to eat and drink.

, can this be reduced? The grain cannot always be in a certain number. If that is the case, these grains and wine will seem to belong to immortals.

"Haha, brother-in-law, this food cannot always be so much. It is used every day. It is said that more people will come tomorrow, and the consumption will be a larger number by then. By the way, we

We have also hired more than 3,000 workers, and their salaries should also be paid. More than 1,000 of them are refugees. Several hundred of them are servants of Boss Zhang’s family, but we have to express our gratitude." Cui

The boss looked at the list and said.

"This is natural. Boss Zhang is kind and won't say anything. We can't take advantage. It seems that the food will be stretched out soon. Doing good things is not an easy task. It's time for other food merchants to give some blood.
