The king behind the empress

Chapter 237
Qian Min sighed for a long time, and looked at Qian Shaoyuan helplessly, his eyes were full of disappointment.

Qian Shaoyuan's business in the Jiangnan area has always been smooth, but he doesn't think about who owns the Jiangnan area. Even if others have the opportunity to cheat him, he dare not do it. Sometimes he even does business with him and pays for it. Don't dare to let him lose.

But is that because of his business flair?That's because his Qian family is very powerful in the south of the Yangtze River, and others dare not mess with the Qian family. He really thinks he is a business genius.

"For now, you have only one way to go."

Qian Min thought for a long time, and then said: "First, sell the grain at a low price. Before the grain has fallen to the bottom, as long as you don't lose money, you can sell as much as you can."

"Second, take the time to transport the remaining grain back. If you lose money transporting it back and forth, you will lose money. It is not safe to store the grain here. I will explain this to the clan elders for you, and you don't have to worry about it."

"That won't work!"

Before Qian Min finished speaking, Qian Shaoyuan interrupted him directly, "Uncle Clan, can't we find out who is behind the trick? As long as he is killed, the matter will be resolved."

"Humph~"

Qian Min snorted coldly, looked at Qian Shaoyuan and said, "The person behind the scenes doesn't need to investigate at all, it must be Mo Zizai."

"Don't you want to kill him? Then you go, if you really can kill him, the old man will set up a longevity card for you at home in the future, and kowtow to you every day, okay?"

"Mo... Mo Zizi?"

Qian Shaoyuan's face was a little ugly. He was surrounded by human beings for protection, but other human beings could not enter the capital. Under such circumstances, who could kill him.

"How could he do that!" Qian Shaoyuan said angrily with some unwillingness: "As a royal family, isn't he competing for the interests of the people by doing this?"

"Huh~"

Qian Min sneered, and looked at the naive Qian Shaoyuan with some disdain. Mo Zizai is now fucking with the people for money, and he is talking about fighting for profits with the people. Does he care about this?
"Stop talking so much, let's do it quickly."

Qian Min shook his head, and was too lazy to talk to Qian Shaoyuan, "As long as the grain is shipped out, you won't have any big problems this time. After you go back, just be your rich businessman honestly, and don't think about anything else. .”

"Uncle Clan, can you send some of them back first?"

Qian Shaoyuan was still a little reconciled, and he asked, "What if other grain merchants ship the grain back? Won't the price of grain go up again by then?"

"Mo Zizai will not allow that to happen."

Having dealt with Mo Zizai for so long, Qian Min asked himself that he knew a little about Mo Zizai, but he didn't bother to tell Qian Shaoyuan about this, so he took a sip from his teacup, and then said: "Let's talk about it later. , You don’t need money to rent a warehouse? If the price of food doesn’t rise, you’re throwing the money in for nothing.”

"It's okay, uncle."

When it came to the warehouse, Qian Shaoyuan couldn't help showing a smug expression on his face, "The grain I transported is stored in the official warehouse. Not only does it cost nothing, but it can also make money."

Hearing Qian Shaoyuan say that the grain was stored in the official warehouse, Qian Min's movement of holding the teacup froze for an instant. He slowly raised his head, and asked a little numbly, "Tell me, where is the grain stored?"

"Guancang!"

Qian Shaoyuan didn't see Qian Min's strangeness, and said happily: "Song Hui before said that the official warehouse is empty, as long as I pay some money, I can let me put the grain in the official warehouse."

"But you have the final say in the household department. After I told him that you are my uncle, he immediately persuaded him. Not only did he not accept my money, but he even partnered with me. As long as I can bring you to the official warehouse Those who store food, he will give me half of the money collected."

"Let me tell you Uncle Clan, that is, this Song Hui is timid and afraid of being sued, so he only charged one-tenth of the normal warehouse price. If you want me to say, those grain merchants who charge half of it will Hurry up."

"If I collect half of it, even if I don't sell the grain this trip, the money I earn will be enough for me to transport the grain back."

Qian Shaoyuan talked a lot enthusiastically, but he didn't notice Qian Min's increasingly ugly face, "Use high-priced grain as a bait, use low-priced official warehouses as a cover, and then close the door and beat the dogs when the grain is enough." , Mo Zizai is really ruthless."

Thinking of this, Qian Min didn't care about Qian Shaoyuan who was still talking there, and shouted to the outside: "Qian Gui."

As the housekeeper, Qian Gui has been waiting outside, when he heard Qian Min's greeting, he immediately ran in, "Master, what's the matter?"

"Immediately check to see if there are any vacant granaries in the major granaries in the capital. If so, ask them if they are for sale."

"Okay, master." Qian Gui nodded and said, "I'll arrange someone to ask."

Qian Shaoyuan, who was talking about being on the rise, was slightly displeased when Qian Min interrupted him, but he couldn't help being curious when he heard what Qian Min ordered, "Uncle Clan, why are you asking this? I don't There is no warehouse."

"Hehe, let's talk about it when Jia Gui comes back."

Qian Min gave a weak laugh, and didn't want to say a word to Qian Shaoyuan, but just sat on the chair without saying a word, waiting for news about Qian Gui.

"What's wrong?"

Looking at Qian Min who ignored him, Qian Shaoyuan slandered in his heart, but seeing Qian Min like this, he simply stopped talking and sat there quietly waiting with Qian Min.

Knowing that Qian Min was in a hurry, Qian Gui arranged for several people to bring the news back quickly.

"My lord, I don't know what's going on. All the granary stewards have stopped showing up. Let alone renting granaries, they won't come out even if you give them money."

"Don't rent granaries anymore?" Qian Shaoyuan was still a little dazed, and said in a daze: "Isn't there no grain in the capital? How come there are no empty granaries?"

"Sure enough."

Unlike Qian Shaoyuan who was still in a daze, Qian Min was not too surprised when he heard the news. He shook his head, and just when he was about to say something, he heard a panicked voice outside, " Master, master, it’s not good..."

Hearing the voice from outside, Qian Shaoyuan stood up suddenly, and said to the outside: "Qian San, what happened?"

This panicked voice was made by Qian Shaoyuan's confidant Qian San. Hearing Qian Shaoyuan's voice, he immediately replied: "Master, the bosses of those grain companies from other places have all gone to our house. The ministry informed them that private grain storage is not allowed in official warehouses, and they should be asked to vacate the grain immediately.”

"How could this be?"

Hearing this news, Qian Shaoyuan was stunned. Thinking of the news that Qian Min investigated just now, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that this so-called low-price official warehouse was a trap.

Large-scale grain storage cannot be stored in any random place. Now official warehouses are not allowed to be released, and private warehouses are not allowed to be rented out. This has driven them to a dead end.

Now there are two roads before them, one is to sell all the grain at a low price immediately, and the other is to transport the grain back the same way.
