Chapter 41 You must buy this glass bead!
Author: Oh wow
Chen Family in Miyun County.
The head of the Chen family was carefully observing the top-quality glass bead in his hand, and he took a breath of cold air from time to time.
"Mr. Mu, do you really want to sell this top-quality glass bead?"
When Master Mu heard the head of the Chen family confirming to him for the third time, he couldn't help but feel speechless.
Even if the glass bead that Xianchang gave him is a treasure that can be passed down for generations, even if it is a knowledgeable gentry. At this time, I didn’t make it to show off if I didn’t sell it?
Although his ideological awareness has completely changed, his IQ has not changed with it. If this kind of treasure is not sold, how can it be easily revealed to outsiders?
"Master Chen, if you tease me again, don't blame me for going to the Zhao family."
"Please forgive me, Master Mu. This thing is so precious, so I can't believe it."
"As long as Mr. Mu sells it sincerely, my nephew will definitely buy it."
"I just don't know how much Mr. Liulizhumu is planning to give up his love?"
Mr. Mu thought about it in his mind. Xian Chang said that he would replace the glass bead with green bricks and go back to build a house for the villagers. It would cost at least more than 100,000 green bricks. A green brick in their Miyun local cost about 5 cents. In this way, the glass bead can be sold for almost a few hundred taels.
But who is Mr. Mu? He stretched out his two fingers and said slowly: "Nephew, I don't want to make a silver. If you really want this glass bead, you can exchange it for 200,000 blue bricks and 100 stones of grain!"
This glass bead actually costs more than one thousand taels?
The head of the Chen family silently calculated the gains and losses in his mind. It is easy to say that the 200,000 green bricks are easy to say, but his family has a special brick kiln, and the price of each green brick can be reduced by nearly 2 yuan, which can save nearly twice the money.
In fact, Mr. Mu was the first to come to the Chen family to know that the Chen family had a brick kiln, and he was not afraid that he would ask for so many blue bricks when he opened his mouth.
But the hundred stones of grain that Mr. Mu wanted next was not a small amount.
Logically speaking, it is just the autumn harvest now, and the new grain is just about to be at its cheapest time.
But yesterday the sudden rain scattered a lot of grain storage, causing the grain price in Miyun to rise by 2 cents per kilogram.
Judging from this, the food price will rise a little longer before winter begins.
"This... Mr. Mu dared to ask what you want so much food?"
The head of the Chen family, just like the county magistrate, subconsciously thought that Mr. Mu had gone to Beijing.
Although their Miyun was hit by disaster, the amount of water did not have much impact on the capital.
How could Mr. Mu, who has always been known for his shrewdness, take the initiative to pour food into the capital?
This made him more concise and he asked inadvertently.
Mr. Mu said calmly at this moment: "This grain was prepared by me for the people who were suffering from disaster in our Miyun County. This bad rain made many people hurriedly escape without having time to bring soft and soft food. I plan to set up several porridge factories in the county so that the invading people will not starve to death."
Although he knew that if he made up a lie at this time, he could fool him, but when he remembered the previous introduction of the Eighteen Hell, he finally chose to tell the truth.
"Click"
The top-notch ceramic tea set in the head of the Chen family fell to the ground.
Everyone is a squire, and they know exactly what they usually look like.
But now the old fox in front of him actually said that he would give free porridge to the people who were suffering from disaster?
Do you still want to use our food to do it?
Mu Xiansheng, if we do this, how can we take the opportunity to make money?
The head of the Chen family looked at the glass beads in his hand reluctantly and pushed them back.
"Master Mu, please come back, I'm sorry that my nephew can't agree."
The tone was full of indifference and rusty.
Mr. Mu couldn't help but shake his head. It turned out that he looked so angry when he was with them before.
My dear nephew, your life is not as good as mine. In the future, you will go to the underworld to repent.
After thinking about it, Mr. Mu wanted to take the glass beads and plan to go to the Zhao family to take a look.
If it really doesn't work in the end, you can only settle for the second best and ask for less food.
He added this hundred stones of grain by himself. It turned out that on the way he came, he saw the people groping in the water to find their own grain, and the prices of grain were soaring. How could he not think of the next operation?
It is nothing more than taking advantage of the natural disaster to empty the last copper on the people or taking this opportunity to merge land and expand their own property.
These are his best skills before.
Now that he has changed his mind, he is even prepared to be punished by the Immortal Chief in order to give the people in distress a way out.
However, based on his understanding of the immortal chief, if the immortal chief knew that he did this, he would probably not have any reprimand.
After all, he is truly doing good deeds and accumulating virtues.
Just as Mr. Mu was about to leave, a loud shout came from outside the courtyard:
"Master Chen, if you don't agree today, don't blame me for checking your shop every day!"
The head of the Chen family looked up and found that the person coming was actually the magistrate of the county, so he hurriedly met him.
"County Master, why are you here in person? Please sit down quickly, please sit down quickly..."
"snort!"
The county magistrate ignored the head of the Chen family and walked up to Mr. Mu and bowed, "I will thank you for your kindness and righteousness on behalf of all the people in Miyun!"
It turned out that after being told that Mr. Mu had gone to the Chen family, he rushed over without stopping. When he entered the door, he happened to hear what Mr. Mu said. In desperation, he spoke directly and threatened the head of the Chen family.
Who is Mr. Mu?
It won’t take long to go to Datian to listen, and Jian is in the heart of the emperor.
His two sons will definitely take advantage of this and be promoted. If he doesn't take the opportunity to leave a good impression on Mr. Mu, he will not be the county magistrate.
Besides, what Mr. Mu wants to do can make a significant contribution to his achievements.
Not to mention using glass beads to exchange for a hundred stones of grain at this time, it would be fine if Mr. Mu didn't pay a penny.
Usually, I will not interfere with the local gentry, but if I dare to block his promotion at critical moments, you can see if I do not mess with you.
The head of the Chen family pulled the corner of his mouth stiffly. Seeing that the county magistrate was threatening him openly, he knew it clearly after thinking about it for a moment, and he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.
The plan to start the price on the ground is considered a waste of money.
After thinking it through, the head of the Chen family bowed apologetically and said, "Master Mu, I will arrange for someone to send the hundred stones of grain, but the 200,000 blue bricks will take some time to see..."
"Of course, the faster the better. At the same time, I hope to borrow the carriage from my nephew's house and send the blue bricks to the designated place for me."
After agreeing with the head of the Chen family, Mr. Mu handed over the glass beads to the head of the Chen family and asked the guard to return to the shogunate with the prefecture with a hundred stones of grain.
"Mr. Mu is back!" Someone was the first to shout out, and then the incoming people in Mu's mansion knelt down one after another.
"Little man, thank you for taking in Master Mu!"
Seeing the people kneeling on the ground looking at him with extremely grateful expressions, Mr. Mu felt as if he had been on the verge of electricity, and a feeling of never having been filled with his heart.
It turns out that this is the feeling of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue...
Thank you for ‘I really don’t want to change my name’ Master’s reward of 100~
