Not only the news of price cuts, but this whole thing seems to have never happened.
Chang'an.
That day, a man in brown clothes walked out of a dark alley in a hurry.
Then he quickly boarded a carriage and said, "Hurry, go back home!"
"Steward Liu, are you going back now?"
"No need to waste words, come back quickly!"
"Yes Yes!"
The sound of horse hooves was rapid, and the carriage quickly started speeding through the streets of Chang'an.
This carriage is not a carriage decorated with gold and jade, but there is an inconspicuous sign above the carriage curtain:
"king"!
This is exactly the carriage that the steward of the Wang Jing Mansion of Taiyuan rode on.
As we all know, there are seven ranks of officials in front of the prime minister.
Although Wang Jing is not the prime minister, his family wealth is no less luxurious than that of the royal family. The carriage the steward rides in does not seem very ostentatious, but the horse used is the same breed as Qin Ruochan's favorite horse that he has raised since he was a child. It belongs to Khan.
Bloody BMW.
Mercedes-Benz is like the wind, dedicated to delivering messages to Wang Jing.
On this day, Butler Liu was still bringing news to Wang Jing.
Moreover, the news this time was very important. Even if the carriage was pulled by a bloody horse, Butler Liu felt that it was clearly not fast enough and wished that the carriage could be faster.
After a while...
Finally arrived at the destination.
The big house in the south of the city!
Prince's Mansion.
"Sir, fine steel has been discontinued!"
"They...they said that fine steel will no longer be available in the near future!"
…
At this time, Wang Jingzheng, Pei Ji, Li Tiancheng, Zheng Taishan and others were sitting together making tea.
In the tea soup, a few green onions floated.
Wang Jing and others looked solemn and a little uneasy.
"Brother Wang, what's going on now..."
After a long while, Cui Baihe spoke first, his face already very ugly.
And what does Cui Baihe mean?
Although he didn't say a word, everyone present understood what he wanted to say.
Recently, everyone has been selling grain like crazy to raise funds and gobbling up the refined steel that has popped up on the market for no reason.
but……
Half a month has passed.
More than a thousand kilograms of fine steel appear on the market every day.
The supply is stable and the sales are unrestrained.
Recently, Wang Jing and others, even with the financial resources of Wu Xing Qi Wang, have gradually been unable to support them.
The food inventory at home has almost been cleared out.
At this stage, there is really a question mark as to whether this acquisition can be sustained...
So everyone was uneasy.
If the supply of fine steel continues...
Everyone of the five surnames and seven looks couldn't bear it anymore, and it was impossible for the ordinary wealthy businessmen and hawkers to eat it.
By then, the iron price will lose the support of purchasing willingness, and it will definitely end in a plummet!
At that time... it will not be a tragedy involving a certain family or a certain surname, but the entire five surnames and seven forces will be fundamentally and severely damaged!
Originally, everyone speculated that this might be shipped by a merchant who had previously stocked up on refined iron.
But recently, the supply has remained stable, who is not worried?
"Brother Wang, there is an endless supply of this fine iron... Otherwise, while the price of iron is still high, we can sell this fine iron later!"
Lu Changgeng thought about it over and over, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became.
This thing is so weird.
It’s not surprising that goods are being stocked and shipped. But in the black market, why can’t the goods be shipped out?
How much refined iron have these mysterious sellers hoarded?
Everyone feels strange when they think about it.
The entire source generally has two directions.
One is from the direction of Youzhou, accounting for a small amount. It is also the line that everyone learned about when they first learned about the appearance of this kind of fine steel.
The other one came out of nowhere from the local black market in Chang'an.
Lu Changgeng said this,
The atmosphere at the scene was a bit cold. In fact, these words were too weak, and it was tantamount to losing one's own prestige.
However, this moment can basically be regarded as a life and death moment for the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes forces.
No one is in the mood to be stubborn anymore.
Wang Jing also frowned, and after a moment... he shook his head.
"No, please don't panic yet, this matter remains to be seen."
Although he said this, Wang Jing was actually panicking in his heart.
The fine steel that has come out recently is of extremely high quality. Ordinary fine iron is like mud in front of this kind of fine steel.
If this kind of fine steel continues to emerge on the market, then...
At this moment of panic,
Pei Ji suddenly smiled and spoke.
"Why are you so worried? I, Mr. Pei, have also given out 300,000 shi of grain to raise funds to buy fine steel. The inventory on hand now is only a lot more than you."
"I'm not panicking, why should you be like this? If you want Pei to see...this fine steel will definitely not be sold for a long time!"
"oh?"
"Please give me some advice, Mr. Pei!"
Pei Ji took a sip of tea soup.
Then, he continued to speak slowly.
"Although there is a lot of fine steel on the market, you all know that the quality of this fine steel is extremely high, and the sword can cut iron as well as mud. For such a high-quality thing, let alone the increase in iron prices today, it was in the past.
The price isn’t much cheaper either—why?”
"Because, rare things are valuable!"
When Pei Ji said this, Cui Baihe and others were stunned.
Think about it carefully.
It seems...hiss, this is really the truth!
The main thing is that things are rare and expensive, which means...
"The more precious the item, the rarer the quantity. No matter who the seller behind the scenes is, it is impossible for him to supply an endless supply!"
"You guys need to think about this and understand this!"
Everyone was thinking.
This is really the truth...
In any case, since this is divine iron, it cannot and should not be used to make hoes.
It is indeed impossible to have an unlimited supply of such extraordinary things!
Is that okay?
Thinking of this, everyone suddenly felt much better.
However, it is still difficult to say where this fine iron came from. What if someone can produce a large amount of fine steel using a secret method, or discovers a meteorite somewhere, which is full of high-quality meteorite iron...
Wouldn't this be troublesome?
What if?
If this happens, who can say for sure.
At this moment, suddenly there was a noise outside the courtyard.
Everyone turned to take a look.
But I saw a man in brown clothes hurriedly walked into the courtyard, bowed respectfully to Wang Jing, and then said.
"Master, the fine steel from Yangjiao Alley is no longer for sale!"
"What?!"
Wang Jing was stunned when he heard the report from the housekeeper Lao Liu.
"Tell me again, are you sure it's Yangjiao Alley? Are you sure it's the fine steel that Fuzhong purchased recently?!"
"Sir, it's absolutely true! I asked the seller for a long time today, and they all said that they have stopped supplying goods recently. It seems that the owner has some needs... But I always feel that..."
"hahahahahahahaha!"
Wang Jing suddenly laughed.
Laugh freely and happily, and feel comfortable all over!
"Did you hear me? The seller said he is temporarily out of stock!"
“Everyone, do you think this is really just temporarily out of stock??”
Wang Jing laughed loudly and looked at several old friends.
Cui Baihe and others were stunned for a moment, and then they understood.
