After I was reborn, I spoiled Mr. Gao Leng Shizi

Chapter 84 Selling Grain
It was only after Xia He returned home at night that Xia Shiheng asked the Xu family to send someone to find Matchmaker Wang and inquired about Zhao Mingyue's marriage to the second son of the Shen family.

Xia He asked while cleaning his hands. "Then how did Matchmaker Wang answer?"

Xu sighed. "The matchmaker Wang said that our sister Yue was ugly and unremarkable, and even frightened the young master of the Shen family. Mr. Shen was furious and said that the marriage would not end."

"Oh! It's over." Xia He was a little bit interested. "Then what did my second uncle say?"

Speaking of this matter, Xu was wronged. "Second Master was so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand on the spot, saying that the Shen family was bullying others. He said that it was all because of my incompetence and wrongdoing about Sister Yue."

"The teacups have been smashed! It seems that I am very angry." Xia He said.

From this it can be seen that Xia Shiheng really wanted to get involved in the marriage of the Shen family.

"What kind of vision do you think this young master of the Shen family has? Just like Sister Yue, and she is said to be ugly and shameless, what kind of personality does it take to catch his eyes?" Xu thought of the words of the matchmaker Wang. My heart is blocked.

Xia He glanced at Xu Shi with a half-smile. "Maybe he's attracted to someone like Mingbi."

"Mingbi? Sister He, what joke are you kidding!" Mrs. Xu was amused by Xia He's words.

But laughing, in Xia He's far-reaching eyes, Xu's laughter was finally drowned in the smile that always hung on the corner of Xia He's mouth.

"Sister He, what do you mean?" Xu felt as if he had grasped something, but it was not very clear.

"What do you think, Third Aunt?" Xia He asked without answering.

In an instant, a flash of light flashed in Xu's mind.She was so startled that she stood up straight away, covering her mouth with both hands, to prevent herself from exclaiming uncontrollably.

"Sister He, are you saying that the person who met Mr. Shen was Sister Bi!" Xu asked in a low voice.

Xia He chuckled. "After all, it's about the second room. Although the third aunt is your housekeeper now, after all, the second uncle and second aunt are still there, and there are some things that the third aunt can't worry about for them. The third aunt only needs to take care of the family affairs. "

"What Sister He said is true." Mrs. Xu nodded and said sadly. "It's just that it's hard for a clever woman to live without rice. Before, the second master was unwilling to hand over the money from rent, land tax and profits from outside businesses to the mansion. Seeing that the mansion is just sitting and eating, I am stretched here."

After hearing Xu's words, Xia He secretly cursed Xia Shiheng in his heart. "Brother Quan has his own thoughts on this matter. It's just that if Second Uncle doesn't hand over the money he earns to the mansion for expenses, then the mansion will naturally have to reduce expenses and sell some items to maintain the expenses of everyone in the mansion."

After hearing this, Xu's eyes lit up. "Thank you, Sister He, for calling."

"What's the matter! There are some things that you can't think of, Aunt San, but because you have too many considerations in your heart, and you can't do it." Xia He explained clearly.

Xu's face turned red for a moment. "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from Sister He."

Xia He smiled, but didn't take it seriously.

just saying. "Now this mansion is run by Brother Quan. Since the third aunt is the housekeeper, she can do it boldly. If there is something to do, Brother Quan will support you behind the scenes."

After hearing Xia He's words, Mrs. Xu's heart suddenly brightened. "What Sister He said is true. With your words, I will have a lot of confidence in what I will do in the future."

Next, Mrs. Xu sat in Shui Se for a cup of tea before leaving.

Within a few days, there was news that the mountain was closed by heavy snow in Kyoto.

When Xia He heard these words, the price of grain in major grain shops in Kyoto had already started to rise.

Several grain stores under the name of Liuheting all closed down after Hulao's order.

During this period, Xia Tingquan went to the dental shop in person and bought nearly 20 people back.

These people do nothing but disperse to the major grain storage warehouses for nursing purposes.

With the weather getting colder, many main roads in Kyoto were closed one after another, and the price of grain was rising day by day, all grain shops under the name of Liuheting finally opened half a month later.

With this opening, all the things sold in Liuheting Grain Shop are three times the price of other grain shops in Kyoto, and the daily quantity is limited.

On the first day, the business of the grain store was not good, but a little of the polished and high-quality rice grains left.

On the second day, the business was slightly better than the first day, and all the rice sold was polished and high-quality rice.

On the third day, all the polished rice and high-grade rice were sold out, and a lot of ordinary rice was also sold out.

On the fourth day, all the restricted polished rice, high-grade rice, and medium-grade rice were all sold out, and a little of the low-grade rice also left.

On the fifth day, the prices of all grains in Liuheting grain shops were still three times that of other grain shops, but all the grain shops were sold out as soon as they opened.

For the next few days, it will be like this every day.

During this period of time, Xia Tingquan finally experienced the feeling of counting money until his hands cramp.

Xia He went to see her today, and it was Xia Tingquan who came to pick her up in person.

Xia He got into the carriage, and the carriage quickly headed towards Uncle Zhongyi's mansion.

Xia Tingquan put a stack of ledgers in front of her on the carriage. "Look, these are our income for more than half a month."

He never dreamed that one day, they would become so rich.

Xia He glanced at the ledgers and told him. "Remember to ask Mr. Hu to deposit the money in the bank every day. You have to hide all the books."

"I know." Xia Tingquan nodded hurriedly. "It's just sister, why do we have to limit it? With the grain in our inventory, even if it is opened for sale, it can be sold for a long time."

Xia He smiled mysteriously. "The things we sell are three times that of other food stores. How can ordinary people accept such a thing."

Xia Tingquan understands everything. "That's why all the people who come to us to buy things are dignitaries."

Xia He nodded. "The limit is to put a little pressure on them mentally and cause panic in their hearts."

"But the low-grade rice in our grain store is sold out every day." The dignitaries have money in their hands, so they won't eat low-grade rice.

"They don't know how to eat it. They only buy high-quality rice and high-quality rice. But at the current price, some dignitaries eat polished rice and high-quality rice, and they may not be willing to spend money to support their children with medium-grade rice. !" Xia He analyzed it to him truthfully.

this is the truth.

As for the price...

With this increase in daily food, they will only worry that it will be more expensive or that there will be no food in the later period.

Now is the time to stockpile a large amount of food.

"Brother Quan, you have to remember, we don't want to be profiteers who have no bottom line, what we want to distribute is the wealth of the rich and powerful." Xia He said to him very seriously. "We also have several grain shops in Liuheting, and let the officials watch. We sell such a large amount of grain every day, and we have no source of purchase. I am afraid that there will be very little grain left."

"My sister is afraid that one day, the imperial court will bear the brunt of the food collection, and it will be our Six Heting's idea."
