As the saying goes, if you have food at home, you are not panic. When the Shen family opened up selling grain and placed the price of each bucket of grain on the acceptable 18 articles, the people in the city were completely relieved, and they felt that after a major disaster, they were in trouble.

Especially after being able to supply the grain they wanted to buy for three consecutive days, everyone is more confident in Shenjia Grain Store. They are divided into four grain shops in Suizhou and are no longer seeing long queues of people who are busy buying and hoarding grain. However, people come to the door one after another every day. In comparison, those grain shops that want to take the opportunity to make a fortune at high prices are much worse. Even if they see that the situation is not good, they have already reduced the price of grain to about twenty cents, they are still deserted, and their reputation has completely collapsed, and their future is really worth considering.

When these good news came one after another, Chen Tian was naturally very happy. In order to express his gratitude to Li Ling and the others, he even sent invitations to the inn and invited Li Ling and Shu Wenqing to come to his home to drink and thank him.

Li Ling naturally would not refuse his gratitude. He came to Shu Wenqing at noon that day, but the latter did not see any joy on his face, but instead felt a little worried, because the fellow villagers in Guang'an had completely parted ways with them, and then he even said bluntly that he wanted to get back his own food. They were busy dealing with it these two days.

However, when they were in front of the Shen family, their worries were hard to show. They could only force themselves to smile and exchange cups with Chen Tian, ​​and say some scenes such as admiration.

After several rounds of wine, the three of them were a little drunk. Chen Tian brought the glass to the two of them again and praised them sincerely: "The two are really the righteous men Chen met for the first time in the shopping mall. If you hadn't helped you this time, I would be afraid that my Suizhou City would be in chaos due to food shortages. I, Chen Tian, ​​swear here by drinking and swearing that as long as you have something to ask for, my Shen family will definitely help you with all your strength, and there is no other word!" As he said that, he raised his neck and drank the wine in the glass, and finally lit the bottom of the glass.

Seeing this, Li Ling hurriedly raised his glass to drink with him: "Brother Chen is so serious. We just can't bear to see the people suffer and let the conspiracy of those greedy people succeed. But I dare not call it a high righteousness. If you really want to talk about it, it is still far from being compared with the true righteous men who have been doing good for many years and saved countless people."

"Hey, that's just because the villagers love to praise them. I dare not take it." Chen Tian said, and looked at Shu Wenqing, who was not very happy, again: "Brother Shu, are you in trouble? Or is it a pity that the food sold at a affordable price? If so, I can pay you money to make up for it."

"No, Brother Chen is looking down on Shu now." Shu Wenqing cheered up for a moment and said with a reluctant smile, "I am just worried about the problems that may arise next time. You must know that in the past few days, we have suppressed the price of grain, and even made other grain shops in the city have to lower the price, but this has offended too many people, especially the wealthy families such as Fan Cai who came from elsewhere. They will definitely not give up easily.

"They have a very special status and may even bribe the government. By then, a small person like me will really be unable to deal with it."

"Haha, brother Shu, you don't have to worry. Suizhou is not their territory after all. As long as my Shen family is here, you will be safe. As for other methods, how could we be afraid?" Shu Wenqing was a little drunk and breathed a little bigger. He patted his chest and made a guarantee.

At this moment, the house manager suddenly came to the front of the hall with a nervous look: "Master, something happened to the grain shop... something happened."

"Hmm?" Chen Tian, ​​who was in high spirits, suddenly felt annoyed when he heard this, "Who is running to my shop again? You took the person down and sent him to the government office to deal with it. Why bother me? Didn't you see me being a banquet for a distinguished guest?"

Seeing that he was about to send him off, the housekeeper was even more panicked and said quickly: "Master, this time they didn't come to make trouble, but came to buy food..."

"Buy grain? Just let them buy it. What's wrong with you?"

"But the amount of grain they want to buy is too much, they have to buy 10,000 stones!" When the butler reported this number, he felt a little tooth pain. Who would have to buy so much grain when he ran to the grain to open his mouth? Isn't this obviously just a cause of trouble?

Li Ling's heart moved and looked at Shu Wenqing. When the two of them looked at each other, they quickly understood that it was the other party's move that they had finally made another move.

A few days ago, they sent someone to buy one or two hundred kilograms at Shenjia Grain Store, which was just a test. Today, they asked for so much at once, and they wanted to empty the stored grain in the grain store in one breath! The key is that they came up with the banner of buying grain, and they paid the money and the other hand, which was impossible to pick out any mistakes.

Chen Tian was also obviously stunned for a moment, then changed color and said, "These are those families who want to clear our stored food!" But after anger, he knew better that he had to take this trick. If he didn't sell the food, the other party would take the handle and make a big fuss. Who knows how many despicable tricks they have?

After a chaotic mind, he looked at Li Ling and the others: "What do you think we should deal with it?" Now they provide the food in the grain shop, so whether they sell it or not is naturally up to them to decide.

Li Ling pondered for a moment: "Why don't we go over and take a look, ask if we understand before making a decision?"

"Okay, they are making trouble in the nearby grain shop. I also want to see who is coming!" Chen Tian nodded and responded.

At that moment, the three of them stopped drinking and immediately got up and went out. In a short while, they came to the nearby grain shop. At this time, many people were gathering around the grain shop, whispering and discussing something. In front of the main entrance were several street gangsters with high-eyed eyes and proud eyes, under the leadership of Mao Saner, who were still arguing with Manager Xu.

"Why, this is how your Shenjia Grain Shop does business? We just want more food, and you just push it so hard. Isn't it just that there is no food? I don't ask you to really take out so much food. As long as you admit that you don't have food in your hands, this matter will be over!"

"Our grain shop naturally has food, but it's not reasonable for you to buy so much food..."

"You sell grain, I buy grain, and the silver goods are paid. Do you care if I am reasonable? I didn't rob it, and I won't give you a little money!"

"You..." Manager Xu was upset and wanted to say something else, but he saw his boss's face sank, and then quickly stepped forward and said, "Boss, they want to buy ten thousand stones of grain from my shop..."

Chen Tian didn't let him finish his words, so he waved his hand and said, "I already know the matter is going to deal with it." As he said that, he turned to look at Mao Saner, "Mao Saner, you are a spoiled man from Suizhou City. You can't even take out a tael of silver on weekdays. Where can you get the courage to buy 10,000 stones of food today?"

While he asked, his eyes fell on the other side. The powerful aura made Mao Saner's heart tighten and his body shrank back. The difference in status between the two sides was too huge. Although Mao Saner could be arrogant in front of others, when facing Mr. Shen, his aura suddenly became weaker and he was stuttering.

Fortunately, there were other people on the side. Seeing this, a man with extraordinary temperament stepped forward and blocked them, and smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, your words are unreasonable. You, a merchant who opens a store and sells grain, just take money to pay for the grain, and who is the one who buys the grain? Or do you just have no grain, so you use such an excuse to make excuses?"

This hit Shen Jialiang Shop's weakness, which made Chen Tian's face even darker, and he snorted: "What do you want so much food? I'm afraid you buy food and do whatever you want!"

"Buying grain is of course useful. Hundreds of people in my family have to eat and pay taxes. I'm afraid that this ten thousand stones are not enough. I wonder if you are satisfied with this explanation, Boss Shen?" This person was still smiling and did not take Chen Tian seriously at all.

With him holding back the pressure, Mao Saner became more courageous. In order to show her skills in front of this person and to exert anger, he immediately said sarcastically: "Boss Shen, if you really have no food, just say it directly, why bother so much?" As he said that, he gestured to the back.

Suddenly, not only the ruffians following him started to clamor again, but also among the people watching the fun, some of them echoed and began to question Shen Jialiang Store's intention of pushing the situation.

Seeing that the situation was about to be in chaos again, Li Ling couldn't help but step forward and shouted, "Don't you want food? We'll just sell it."

As soon as this said, Chen Tian was a little surprised and looked at him: "Boss Ling..."

"Our grain was sold out. Since they wanted it, who wouldn't it be sold?" Li Ling winked at him, and looked up at the humans and said, "But the rules we set before cannot be changed. Selling grain only requires copper coins, not cash!"

"How can you make such a reason? Who can buy so much food and use copper coins?" The man immediately questioned and opposed, "Didn't you say that you only collected copper coins for convenience? But now, we only have such troubles when we use it for the sake of our customers?"

"It's not your word!" Li Ling was unmoved and looked back at him, "Anyway, we only collect copper coins, don't have silver! If you can take out the copper coins that can buy 10,000 stones of grain, you will naturally be able to buy food, otherwise, please go to another family."

After a pause, before they could object, Li Ling added: "You said before, just say you buy and I sell when doing business. No matter why you want so much food, don't worry about why we only collect copper coins. This is the real fairness and rationality!"
