Chapter 292: The opening of the altar in Tantuo Temple, the rich businessman Chen Jie is busy

"Mr. Chen, will this matter be a bit dangerous..."

In the capital, in a special wing room in the backyard of Tantuo Temple.

All the sixteen largest grain merchants in the entire capital gathered here, and the leader was Chen Jie and Chen Shenyi, a gentry in the south of the Yangtze River.

The Chen family lived in Jinling for many years, and their ancestors were in charge of the famous Chen Wansan.

Later, the desolate ancestors of the Shen family set up their own business, which also showed that they would be able to go to office and ensure safety in the future.

So after earning money, he spent a lot of money to hire famous teachers, resulting in two Jinshi and two Juren in his family.

The family was prosperous for more than a dozen scholars in the side tribe, while Chen Jie and Chen Shenyi were the capital whose branch came to the capital decades ago.

With the support of our family, we will be supported by the elders and old officials in the family, and we will also be supported by the township party for a time, and we will be the leader of the grain merchants in the capital.

"Go to win in detail, and seek to win in danger."

But Chen Jie squinted his slender eyes and twisted his beard and said coldly: "How can you have such a good way to be rich but not risky?"

The Middle East Factory of the Capital, and the Jinyiwei ran around. How could the natives of the Capital not know at all?!

The nobles are indeed hoarding food and grass. It seems that the Ministry of Revenue has not stored much grain this time.

Even when I was waiting for someone to inquire, the people from the Ministry of Revenue were so secretive that they dared not say much.

It must be because the Ministry of Revenue has not stored much grain, so the Zhang family Qiliner was very happy to lead the victims to the capital.

This forced His Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue and the nobles to help him wipe his butt and hoard a small amount of food for the victims to arrive.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Ministry of Revenue has a lot of food when it comes to Jiubian before! Although I have money to transport grain from Yizhou, it is still difficult to offset it."

But Chen Jie smiled and said to everyone: "Even if we launch, how can the state government transfer food from Yizhou be there in a short while?"

The shopkeepers of sixteen grain merchants bowed their heads and communicated with each other, and then they saw an old man with a fat and rich man standing up a year.

He bowed his hand to Chen Jie and said, "Mr. Chen, I don't want to earn money if I have to wait!"

"But how to determine that the Ministry of Revenue must not be much food?! Are the nobles storing grain for the Qiliner again?!"

Chen Jie couldn't help but sneer when he heard this and said disdainfully.

"If the Ministry of Revenue had not been short of food, how could the nobles suddenly store grain? And they all store grain without exception."

"Don't you know how those nobles are virtuous?! They also planned to make profits from this matter at the beginning."

As he said that, Chen Jie walked to the window with his hands behind his back and looked out the night, sighing: "It seems that the British man has made a lot of profits!"

"Otherwise, even Your Majesty will not be able to say that so many nobles in the country will store food together!"

More than ten grain merchants nodded. Who doesn’t know the virtues of those nobles!

I wish I could suck my fingers and suck my fingers, and I was all incompetent in eating the merits of my ancestors.

Haven't you seen that at most they bought the shops and the outputs in the fields, and occasionally ate the outputs of a few merchants they defect to make a living?!

When it comes to business methods, they are hard to match with themselves and others, and they rarely interfere with the shop situation.

This time, they suddenly had to limit the sale of food. It would be a lie to say that no one behind them restricted them.

But who can do this?!

Your Majesty is difficult to deal with. After all, if these nobles really join forces to fight, Your Majesty will have to give in.

Moreover, His Majesty cannot choose to give in to the nobles, where is his identity?

Those who may give in, and those who can convince the nobles are counted as nobles.

And he has a high status and a sufficiently effective speech. Such people may become Dukes and British Dukes.

Although Duke Xu also has this status, he basically does not interfere with the circle of nobles in the capital in Jinling.

Duke Cheng looked left and right, but he could not see any connection with this matter.

The above-mentioned shocking sound from His Majesty that the British man Qiliner who wanted to resettle refugees was different.

If the food prices soar, how can he resettle refugees?!

"I'm still too young!"

Chen Jie narrowed his eyes and turned around, smiled at the grain merchants, saying, "I'm afraid that Qilin's son has gone to pick up the victims, but he realized the amount of food and fodder for 100,000 victims?"

The grain merchants suddenly realized that they would be right after they calculated this way!

There was no restriction on food and fodder before, but as soon as Qilin's son returned to Beijing, he suddenly had all the shops of the nobles.

What does this mean?! It means he is making trouble behind the scenes!

Why do you want to make trouble?! Because the victims are coming, he, who had been to welcome the victims, finally knew how much food and drink the hundreds of thousands of victims were.

If there is no food and fodder, more than 200,000 victims will start to make trouble in the capital. What will be the consequences?!

"Mr. Chen means..."

Chen Jie looked at these grain merchants with a smile, sighing as if he was a Confucian scholar.

"The son is ruthless and has trampled on famous religions and taught him a lesson many times! As an elder, we should educate him!"

But Chen Jie said, and said to the grain merchants: "I have 200,000 stones of grain stored now, and I am not planning to sell it."

"With the disaster victims not coming, I will also limit the sale, and the price of food and fodder will be raised first..."

After a pause, Chen Jie showed a more elegant smile on his face: "There are still 1.3 million taels of silver in the family..."

"I also feel that buying more grain reserves is the best way to prepare for wasteland at this time!"

As soon as he said this, the sixteen grain merchants were no longer calm. The rich grain merchant's face was even more gloomy.

After a while, he whispered: "Mr. Chen, if the state or the government is concerned..."

"Hmph! The Qingliu people are being plotted against by the Zhang family, but the national dynasty has never lacked loyal and straight ministers!"

But when Chen Jie's eyes were shining, he turned around and looked righteous and arrogant: "I am not afraid of making it clear, and the ministers have long been dissatisfied with him!"

"The Hanlins in the Hanlin Academy are even more intriguing the emperor because of their intrigue!

"As long as we push away the false shell and the false momentum, we will naturally have the help of helping us in the court!"

Seeing that the grain merchants were still hesitating, Chen Jie's face quickly replied.

But he smiled faintly and said, "The carriages and horses in the Zhang family's hands are very valuable. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a daily wage of gold..."

As soon as these grain merchants said this, they struggled even more, and Chen Jie continued.

"And the Empire Times is now invincible! If I could name a few for me, wouldn't it be a good thing?"

"You all need to know, I have inquired. The "Imperial Times" has hundreds of thousands of copies sent to all places every day, which is a sea of ​​gold and silver..."

As soon as he said this, the rich grain merchant stood up with a fierce look on his face and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Chen! If things happen, these two..."
