Lu Songli invested 10,000 stones of grain in five counties and towns, and a drop of water fell into the oil pan, causing an uproar.

Everyone took their household registration and came to the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce grain and oil store in Zhenshang County and lined up.

Today, people have more than ten people in a household registration area, unlike later generations, if they are single, they will have four or five people. Therefore, even if each person is limited to three kilograms, the person who queues up to buy can buy thirty or fifty kilograms or even more.

The first time the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce grain and oil store sold affordable grain, Wu Ren personally took charge, started selling it at noon and worked until evening.

Those who bought grain came out of the grain store with dozens of kilograms of grain, and went to the house with their families, talking and laughing.

Wu Ren saw that there was not much food in the grain tank and there were still many people queuing outside. After thinking about it, he walked out and counted the five people in front of him and came to the sixth person, "Uncle, the food is almost sold out. Don't queue up behind you, go home."

There are those who came late and didn’t buy them. They were already anxious and couldn’t stand it when they heard Wu Ren’s words.

"Why did it sell out? I haven't bought it yet." The old man who spoke was very guilty, all blamed himself for his walk too slowly.

Those who have poor tolerance all cried, "Yes, my family is almost out of food, so I hope to buy some cheap food and go back."

Someone begged Wu Ren, "Brother, can you ask the store to add some more grain?" They saw that this was a conscientious merchant, and the grain sold was all good, and it cost fifteen cents per kilogram next door.

The shopkeeper next door came out and saw it four or five or six times this afternoon, and his beard was blowing and his eyes were staring.

Wu Ren also noticed this scene, but Wu Ren was not afraid of him. What is the background of their Liaodong Chamber of Commerce?

Besides, regarding the price of grain, Lord Lu also asked Mr. Guo Chunsheng and the grain merchants to talk to them not to set the price so high or cheaper, and it would be better to occasionally give some special grain to the poor people. But these unscrupulous merchants cried and shouted that they would not make money. If they really wanted to reduce the price, they would rather close the store.

This forced his master to try his best to find a way to get food for Liaodong County outside.

Facing the hopeful eyes of the people, Wu Ren could only bow with a wry smile, "Dear uncles and aunts, the food quota of the shop is really used up today."

The master told them to put the grain in three times.

Today is the first day of affordable grain delivery. Houcheng invested 1,000 stones, which is 120,000 jin, while the other four counties have a little less, which is 70,000 jin.

He is now in Gaoxian County, the entire Gaoxian County has eight townships. Each town has one of their stores, and each store has only allocated less than 10,000 kilograms of grain.

All sold out in one afternoon, and their clerks were all exhausted.

Wu Ren's words made people who had not bought food yet uproar.

Wu Ren quickly said, "Listen to me, I don't buy it today, so I can come tomorrow, and it will still be sold tomorrow."

Someone immediately asked him, "Brother, can you close your store, can we not walk?" They had to continue queuing, otherwise if they go back, what if they can't catch up tomorrow?

Wu Ren thought for a while and said, "In this way, you are queuing up. I'll have someone register and give you a serial number. Will you be queuing according to the serial number when you come tomorrow?"

Some people think his method is OK, while others think it is safer to stay and queue.

The next afternoon, Wu Ren noticed that there were still many people queuing up to buy food.

On the third day, people from other counties even came to queue up. However, according to regulations, the grain invested in Gaoxian County can only be purchased first by the people of Gaoxian County.

Wu Ren stayed in this shop for three days. He had a tender face and laughed at everyone. His kind look made people feel very fond of.

The old men and women were consciously familiar with him and couldn't help but get close to him.

"Shopkeeper Wu, who opened this grain and oil store in Liaodong Chamber of Commerce? Who is the owner?"

"Yes, I haven't heard of this grain and oil store before."

"Our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce is a new business." Seeing that they were still confused, Wu Ren continued to explain, "In fact, it is similar to the Ji family business name. Have you heard of the Ji family business name?"

"I've heard of it."

Wu Ren continued, "Our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce is specially approved by the county magistrate, and specializes in the business of goods of high quality and low price."

The old man who spoke nodded, "Like the food you sold this time is very affordable."

"Haha, thank you for your praise. In the future, our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce will have more types of items, so please stay tuned."

"Yes, otherwise the food price would be so high that it would be forced to death."

"Yes, this food is good, but it's just that the purchase is limited. There are too few people who can buy it, so many people haven't bought it."

Wu Ren smiled. In fact, the purchase limit was calculated by them. In the past three days, 5,000 households could basically buy grain, covering 80% of the population.

"There is no way. The whole Liaodong County has a tight grain. In fact, it is not just Liaodong County. There is flooding in the south, and there is a shortage of food everywhere."

An old man bearded beard next to him shook his eyelids and said, "You Gaoxian County still has such affordable food, so laugh. Our Liao team county has not yet."

The young man next to him also immediately said, "We have no one to study in the county."

The people of Gaoxian County were stunned when they heard this. They thought that there were affordable food for each county and town.

Then they started talking.

"Don't you Liao team county?"

"You didn't even go to the county?"

"No, no!" the young man replied.

God knows that when they learned that Wuwu County and Liaoyang County nearby had affordable food, but they almost didn't have one, they almost cried. Who knows the feeling of grievance?

"How could this be?"

The old man with a beard said in a plain voice, "This time, the most affordable grain was released in Houcheng. The people in Houcheng limited the purchase of five kilograms per person, and they basically bought them. Others such as Wangping, Wuwei, Gao Xian, Liaoyang and other counties and towns were limited to three kilograms per person, and most of them also bought them."

"Shopkeeper Wu, what's going on?"

Wu Ren was not in a hurry to explain. When the old man with a beard finished speaking and the rest of the people came to ask him, he said, "Please be quiet, I'll explain it to you."

"First of all, our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce is operated independently, so that it will cooperate with some policy regulation of the government at appropriate times, but it is not subject to the government's control."

"Secondly, this time our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce has not received much food and cannot cover the eighteen counties of Liaodong County. Please forgive me for this."

"Then, Houcheng was the residence of the Xin County Magistrate's Office, and Wangping, Wuwu, and four counties including Liaoyang bordered the Xianbei grassland. A lot of food was robbed last year. The people in these counties were living too hard. Not to mention, they are still serving to build roads." More people-friendly policies are needed to appease and attract the people who go out to return.

"The last reason is to be guilty of possessing a treasure. There are too many nests of bandits in Liaodong County. As soon as the grain is divided, a village may be caught in the eye and then the bandits are poisoned. Therefore, the scope of the delivery of affordable grain is tentatively determined to be counties and towns where these bandits have been removed."

"No, what about Gaoxian County? It does not border the Xianbei." Someone raised doubts.

"Gaoxian County can get affordable food because it can be evenly produced. It can only be said that it is too lucky. Moreover, Gaoxian County is already assisting the army in suppressing bandits."

After Wu Ren's words were heard, the people of Houcheng were very proud. Other counties, such as those who hoped for equality, were also proud, while the people in the other thirteen counties were bitter.

They can also perform labor service to build roads, or support the army to fight bandits, and they ensure obedience.

Lord County Governor, the owner of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, you can't favor one or the other.

Wu Ren finally comforted, "But please rest assured that our boss is already trying his best to purchase grain. In the future, there will be affordable grains for the other fifteen counties. Please wait patiently."

After saying that, he wanted to go back to the store, but was pulled by the aunt next to him, "Shopkeeper Wu, is your store still recruiting people? My eldest son is tall and tall, and he is very strong, so he can help you carry the goods." It would be great to be able to enter this store. Not to mention those who have wages but not wages, they just say that they will have good things to sell in the future, so they can also know in advance.

"I'm recruiting. But aunt, our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce will be stricter in recruiting people, and basically we need to be literate. The specific recruitment requirements will be posted, so everyone should pay attention to it."

Now many of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce are absorbed from Tianshui Village, with the original team.

The aunt let go of his words.
