Song Wentang didn't notice the psychological changes of his cousin at all, and continued to talk about how his father secretly helped Song Changji. After boasting enough, he proudly told Song Wenji
We started talking about business, that is, how to take advantage of this flood to purchase people's fields at low prices!
In fact, there is only one focus in this matter, and that is the price at which to acquire the land.
"Cousin, how about we purchase the land at the price of ten kilograms per acre?"
Song Wentang came up and made an offer that shocked Song Changji!
"Ten shi meters per acre? The normal land price is thirty to forty shi meters per acre! Even last winter, when the people were also affected by the disaster, the land price was not lower than 30 shi meters per acre!"
"Hey, cousin, you also said that that is the normal land price, but these are extraordinary times! The people no longer have food in their hands, and the situation is much worse than last winter. If the land is not sold, they will go hungry.
Damn it! Not to mention ten shi per acre, if they are forced to pay, even if it is five shi per acre, they have to sell it! Because they have no choice at all! Ten shi per acre is already considered a conscientious price!
"
Song Wentang said proudly.
"You are right. When faced with a disaster, the common people really have no choice. But, Third Brother, don't forget that the common people are not completely left to be slaughtered. If they are forced to have no way to survive, it will probably arouse the anger of the people."
Change!”
Song Changji reminded.
"Oh! That's what you said to my father just now, and you still say that to me now! Brother, when did you become so timid? Let me tell you the truth, my father has already thought that there might be some troublemakers.
, he has already made arrangements for this
Platoon, kill a few leaders first. The rest are just a bunch of rabble. Do they still dare to make trouble? In short, it has nothing to do with you whether it will trigger a civil uprising! You just need to agree with me and pay ten shi rice
Just buy the land for the price of one acre!”
Song Wentang said with disdain!
"Well, since the second uncle has made the arrangements, I won't say anything more. I'll just follow the price you set."
Song Changji said calmly.
"Okay! Brother, be happy!"
When Song Wentang heard that Song Changji had agreed to the price, he clapped his hands very excitedly and said with excitement: "Then you just wait for my notice and don't move for the next two days. Let's give the people some relief and wait until they panic.
Let's end up buying land at a low price! Speaking of which, you got a total of 150 ships of grain, and you're going to make a lot of money this time! Compared with you, I'm just drinking a bowl of soup...
..."
"hehe......"
Seeing Song Wentang's envious look, Song Changji didn't say anything, just smiled faintly.
...
Qinglin Academy.
The disciples of Xinxue arrived here one after another, all of them looking sad and anxious!
"How's it going over there? How much food have you raised?"
"Yang Ji Food Store's food supply has been bought out a few days ago, and now we can't get any food out at all!"
"The same goes for Xue Ji Food Store, which was also sold out in advance!"
"The Dayun Grain Store does have grain, but the shopkeeper of the Dayun Grain Store is trying to prevent him from taking out the grain to help the victims. He even refuses to sell it at a fair price! From what he said, he is trying to hoard it and make a fortune from the disaster.
!”
"Fang Ji's boss is also unwilling to sell grain at a fair price, and he is just waiting to make a fortune!"
"These profiteers are so abominable! Thousands of miles of floods, starving people everywhere! Not only do these profiteers have no mercy at all, they even deliberately hoard them in order to make a fortune from the disaster! Have their consciences been eaten by dogs?!"
