Chapter 303 If you want parity, I will rise, the government inventory is exhausted
"What...what?! The food shops of those nobles have increased to twelve taels?"
Chen Jie and Chen Shenyi stood up vaguely, the old butler in front of him bowed and smiled bitterly: "Who said no..."
"It's just that they bought grain with notes, and they still sold it at the price of one stone and one tael..."
The old butler said this, Chen Jie and Chen Shenyi were not surprised. Obviously, the nobles wanted to earn more: If you don’t increase the price, I will increase the price!
Now I have to collect grain from others. Chen Shenyi's face was gloomy for a long time and still waved his hand to order the old housekeeper to add the price.
At the same time, the old housekeeper called a few families to give birth to children and ordered them to inform other grain shops.
Chen Jie is actually not as good as he does. His cash flow is gradually hollowing out.
One million taels of silver may seem like a lot, but in fact, it can't stand it for long in real operation.
When the price of grain rose to 8 taels per stone, he bought 50,000 stones of grain from the nobles at a premium of 10%!
This 440,000 taels of silver was spent so much, and it was just like splashing water. How long can one million taels last?!
Walking into the study, he ordered people not to disturb him. Chen Jie buried himself in the chair in the study, staring blankly at the rooftop and wondering what he was thinking.
When the old housekeeper came back and heard about it, he personally stayed outside the study and asked not to disturb him.
The old housekeeper who grew up watching Chen Jie grow up knows his habits. Once he chooses to enter the study to think, it means he encounters great difficulties.
The moon rises on the willows and the lights are on.
Chen Jie did not walk out of his study, and the child who came back from outside to prepare for the report was swept away by the old housekeeper and did not dare to approach him.
Several wives Ru have also come, but they watched the old butler close their eyes in front of the door and read a happy blessing and quietly retreat.
"Uncle De..."
After a long time, Chen Jie's voice came from the study, but the voice was tired and hoarse, completely no longer as powerful as it used to be.
The old butler bowed to the study: "I'm here, what should I prepare for?"
"Carriage!"
But Chen Jie's voice came quietly: "Go to Tanzhe Temple, you first order someone to negotiate with the abbot to ask Cuizhuyuan..."
"I know..."
But the gloomy door of the study room in the dark opened with a "creak~" and Chen Jie's thin figure walked out of the darkness.
The eyes flashed like ghosts with a faint green light, and their faces were a little pale.
But Chen Jie saw Chen Jie sweeping over his old housekeeper like a dead fish, and his voice was a bit erratic: "Come on someone to invite the Lu Dahao..."
"I said I was waiting for the big trip in Cuizhuyuan!"
The old butler bowed to his order: "I understand! Master... Please take care of me!"
Chen Jie was stunned when he heard what his old butler said, then there was a hint of warmth in his eyes: "I understand, Uncle De... take care of you too!"
The capital is still prosperous and the streets are bustling.
Although curfews still exist in recent years, most of the time the market will be delayed before the curfew is dropped.
After all, the capital is the most wise place, just as it was recorded in the "Notes" of Matteo Ricci, a missionary at the end of the Ming Dynasty...
Thousands of updaters are inevitably robbed in the house, at least it is basically impossible to be in the capital now.
The carriage and horse left the house with a "rumble..." and walked along the city wall to the door.
It is impossible for him to open the city gate, but some snakes, insects, rats and ants can still follow the path.
For example, now, Chen Jie is wearing a burqa and climbing up to the city wall under the guidance of a captain.
A frame was taken out at the city gate building, and Chen Jie sat in the frame and was placed under the city wall.
The child who was following Chen Jie watched his master arrive under the city wall safely, then took out a ingot of silver and stuffed it into the captain's hand...
When Chen Jie rushed to Tanzhe Temple and entered the Cuizhuyuan under the guidance of the monks of the temple, Louis Louis Vuitton had already been waiting there.
Even in the villa of the Buddhist pure land, this great man from the grassland was still gnawing meat and drinking wine.
Seeing that Chen Jie came in, he didn't get up, but instead waved his head and smiled and said, "What?! Are you planning to stop?"
"No!" Chen Jie didn't think so, and sat directly opposite Lu Dahao and looked at him calmly: "It's impossible to stop this matter."
Lu Dahao smiled indifferently, put out a stone pottery bowl and picked up a jar of barley wine next to it and poured it on.
"It doesn't matter, it's just... do you still have money?!"
Chen Jie's face turned pale when he heard Lu Dahao's words, but soon became red again: "Check me?"
"It's not that I want to investigate, but someone wants to investigate."
Lu Dahao did not deny it, and raised the wine bowl with a smile and sighed: "I am just a little person, do you understand?"
Chen Jie's face was gloomy, but he still raised the wine bowl and slapped Lu Dahao.
"Didn't you ever think about becoming a big shot?! Are you willing to... be a little shot for the rest of your life?!"
Drinking the wine in the bowl in one sip, Chen Jie's face seemed to flush.
But he saw that he stood up straight and said in a deep voice to Lu Dahao: "Are you really willing to do this?"
Louis Louis Vuitton looked at Chen Jie and smiled: "I am very self-aware..."
"How big the head is, what big the hat is, if the head is not that big, you will be covered with the eyes that big hat..."
While talking, Lu Dahao poured wine for Chen Jie again: "I blindfolded my eyes and couldn't see the road. If I hit the strong, I will fall off the cliff and who can tell me clearly."
This made Chen Jie's face pale a little again, but he quickly gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
"A hundred years of life pass by, what's the point of this life if you don't fight for wealth and glory?!"
When Lu Dahao heard Chen Jie's words, he picked up the wine bowl and slapped slightly.
Then he poured the strong wine into his throat: "There is different, we don't plan for each other! Mr. Shenyi came here for silver?"
"I still want to know how much food is left to store!!"
Chen Jie let out a deep breath, but he did not get entangled in that matter: "If there is such a rise, it will only force us to death!"
Lu Dahao couldn't help laughing when he heard Chen Jie's words, waved his hand and said, "You want to buy this, no one is forced to do it."
"Since Mr. Shenyi asked, I don't talk much nonsense."
But Lu Dahao pointed at the table with his finger and said in a deep voice: "There is still a reserved grain supply in five days. What you can get... is 120,000 stones!"
Chen Jie's face was a little gloomy, but at least he saw the boss himself.
