Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 168
Looking at shopkeeper Sun who was immersed in joy, the housekeeper of the Sun residence listened to Sun Cai's words in his heart.

He asked: "I heard that Zhuangzi in the suburbs has been empty for a long time, and it has been regarded as an unowned place. How did you find out about that place?"

Sun Cai had already expected to be suspected, and he had already thought about how to explain it.

"The young one followed the Taiping Grain Shop guy secretly to find it. The young one was far away at the time, so that's all the news I got.

The butler still felt that something was wrong, so he persuaded him: "Master, please be careful. We both have this grain store in Taiping, and their prices are so much lower than ours. When the news spreads, our advantage will be Gone'

"Besides, we still have a lot of grain in stock. It's not a good time to buy grain now."

Hearing what the butler said, shopkeeper Sun felt that he was opposing his decision, and he was determined to buy grain.

Seeing that he couldn't dissuade the butler, he had no choice but to shut his mouth.

Unavoidable that the night would be full of dreams, shopkeeper Sun immediately led a large number of people to the Zhuangzi that Sun Cai mentioned.

Under Qin Jin's arrangement, Zhuangzi had already been cleaned and tidied up in advance.When shopkeeper Sun arrived, Zhuangzi's door was closed tightly.

bang bang bang!!!
There was a knock on the door, and the sound of trampling footsteps came from inside, and after a while, someone opened the door.The door was opened by a shrewd looking middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked at shopkeeper Sun who was blocking the door with his huge body, and then stretched his head to look out. There were many people pushing carts behind him.

After asking why shopkeeper Sun and others came, the middle-aged man directly rejected him and was about to close the door.

Shopkeeper Sun stared at him with a pair of small eyes, and quickly blocked his fat body in the middle of the door, preventing the man from closing the door.

He said unhappily, "Why can't I buy grain from your Taiping Grain Store?"

The man stopped his movements and asked in surprise, "You were introduced by Taiping Grain Shop?"

Shopkeeper Sun saw that he had changed his attitude, and knew that it was because he had brought up Taiping Grain Shop. It seemed that this person had a good relationship with Taiping Grain Shop.

No matter how reluctant he is, he can only borrow the "fox fake tiger prestige" from Taiping Grain Shop. "Yes, we were introduced by Taiping Grain Shop to buy grain."

The man who opened the door was confused for a while, and muttered deliberately: "But I didn't hear anyone say it."

"Forget it, come in first."

Shopkeeper Sun swaggered in and asked the man to take him to see the food.

Seeing that it was the same grain as that in the Taiping Grain Shop, shopkeeper Sun nodded in satisfaction, and said generously, "I want all the grain you have left in your village!"

The butler who followed hurriedly said, "Master, you can't, let's"

When the butler was talking, the man said louder: "No, you took them all away, what should I do if the Taiping Grain Shop runs out of food again?"

Shopkeeper Sun's attention, originally attracted by the butler, was successfully drawn back by the man.

He hates others not letting him do anything in his life!
Besides, the Taiping Grain Shop just happened to be out of grain, so he could be the only one in the family.

After two rounds of tugging, Shopkeeper Sun got his wish and asked the man to sell all the grain in the village to him.

The grain on the Zhuangzi was more than twice the amount of grain that Shopkeeper Sun and others bought last time. With the aim of making the Taiping Grain Shop run out of grain, Shopkeeper Sun wanted it all with a wave of his hand.

The butler was anxiously scratching his head and didn't say a word. To be precise, there was no chance for him to intervene. Whenever he spoke, he would be interrupted by the man.

In the end, shopkeeper Sun paid [-] taels of silver before the man asked him to take away the grain. This was because the man gave him a discount because he bought too much.

Shopkeeper Sun left first after paying the money, and asked the rest of the people to take all the food to the Sun family's grain farm.

The housekeeper followed shopkeeper Sun and glanced back at the servants who were pulling food.

He really felt something was wrong in his heart, and he followed shopkeeper Sun and said anxiously: "Master, if you want to sell this kind of grain, you can wait until it is almost sold and then buy it. What if the Fourth Prince blames me again, what should I do?"

Shopkeeper Sun said impatiently: "There are so many contingencies. Since you are so worried, just stay here and wait for them to bring all the grain to our own grain farm before going back."

"Hey, sir"

Before the housekeeper could speak again to spoil the fun, Shopkeeper Sun called Sun Cai to get in the carriage and left quickly.

After the people left, the butler stood there with a sad face and muttered in a low voice: "The food here looks more plump, and the cooked rice is more fragrant, but the price is so much higher than other food, so it won't last long."

But he could only say this to himself.

And the middle-aged man who just opened the courtyard door stood behind the door and saw that shopkeeper Sun didn't listen to the butler's words, and even left him and left by himself, heaved a long sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that shopkeeper Sun's pig brain would react.

After all, they haven't left yet, if they suddenly say they don't want to buy it and insist on taking the money back, it will be really troublesome.

Because this Zhuangzi was in the suburbs and there was no curfew, the people who were left behind by shopkeeper Sun to pull the food went back and forth, until midnight to evacuate the Zhuangzi.

After waiting for the last batch, the man smiled and waved to the housekeeper of the Sun Mansion, looking as if he deserved a beating.

After staying up in the middle of the night, the butler was already yawning from sleepiness. Seeing the man wave to him, he snorted and got on the frame of a half-cart loaded with grain, and ordered the people to push him away.

Oops, his old body can't hold on for such a long time, so he has to go back to sleep quickly.

When all the people had withdrawn and no movement could be felt around Zhuangzi, the man in Zhuangzi waved his hand towards the dense forest outside.

Soon many people came out of the forest, the leading ones were Jiang Zhiyue and Qin Jin.

Jiang Zhiyue said: "Clean up all traces in the yard."

Dozens of people behind me said in a depressed yet excited low voice: "Yes."

They went to the Zhuangzi to erase the traces of someone's presence, and the man guarding the Zhuangzi quickly walked up to Jiang Zhiyue and Qin Jin and handed over the bank note in his hand to Jiang Zhiyue.

"Girl, [-] taels, that fat man took silver bills."

Jiang Zhiyue smiled and said, "Thanks for your hard work."

"Blind, it's not hard work at all. If making money can be so easy, I wish I could do it every day."

Hearing what the man said, Jiang Zhiyue couldn't help laughing, how could such a big injustice be fooled by them all day long.

And Shopkeeper Sun was able to come to buy food so quickly and buy so much, which also took a lot of energy from them, and successfully took advantage of the good opportunity of the right time, place and people.

Many of the people who ordered a large amount of food at Juxin Grain Shop were arranged by Qin Jin.
