Nanjing, Jiangjia Winery.
Jiang Dezhong was greeting Zhang Zhou. His father-in-law looked at his son-in-law, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
"Xian son-in-law, you have to sell all the rice so early. Now the price on the market is still stable and rising."
After Jiang Dezhong learned of Zhang Zhou's intention, , a little surprised.
But he is used to it. Recently, this son-in-law always goes against the trend and does the opposite of what others do.
Zhang Zhoudao said, "The price cannot rise any more. Besides, Huguang, Jiangxi and other places also have abundant grain yields. The grain producing areas in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River have heard that grain prices are rising here. There will be a large number of grain ships without the court taking action." Come here, it will be easy to lose the goods in your own hands."
Jiang Dezhong thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "It makes sense, but it doesn't make sense. The business seems to be very profitable, but it is not stable. If you are not a good son-in-law, just sell the grain to me."
If Zhang Zhou wants to sell, there is something to buy here.
Zhang Zhou said, "Father-in-law, it's not that my son-in-law is trying to offend you. In fact, it's better to separate public and private matters in some matters. If I sell it to you, if the food goes up or down, there will always be knots in each other's hearts. Also, Yes, I would like to advise you that the disaster in Jiangbei is less severe than expected. Once the market violence is over and the court takes action, all walks of life in Nanjing will return to normal, and my father-in-law should not engage in speculative trading."
"Haha."
Although Jiang Dezhong admired his son-in-law's previous knowledge, it was impossible for him to completely listen to his son-in-law's words to do business.
"Bingkuan, I would like to remind you that just selling is not enough. You have to wait for the price of food to drop, collect another batch, and fill up the previous holes. If by then The price of food hasn’t come down yet, but it has gone up. I’m afraid if you’re okay, tell me when the time comes and I will help you.”
Zhang Zhouxin said, you old guy still wants to take advantage of me
p>It seems that you want me to be bound to your Jiang family, forgetting that you wanted to break up our couple
You want to take advantage of me
No way
Zhang Zhou wanted to sell grain through many channels.
The market was full of people who wanted to buy grain, and Zhang Zhou found the buyer without any effort.
I went to the Jiang's warehouse to bring out grain that day. As agreed before, I left all the money from the grain sale on the Jiang's counter. After I went back to replenish the grain, I took the extra money. come out.
Anyway, he is not short of money recently.
After discussing his own business, he calculated that if the grain price dropped to the original price, he would make at least two hundred taels of profit.
"It looks like a lot, but that's just what it looks like. It's not enough for me to buy a house in both the north and the south. This is a slightly bigger gap between the family living a good life and the speculative business ending. Go into business."
Zhang Zhou then went to see Ning Tong.
It had been agreed a long time ago that Zhang Zhou went there and found Ning Tong waiting for him upstairs with a maid, the driver of the carriage.They all stopped far away.
Zhang Zhou was a little uneasy.
What would others think if it was known that he had met alone with the wife of the second son of Duke Chengguo?
"Mr. Zhang, please come in." The little maid got off the platform, Welcome Zhang Zhou up.
The little maid looks pretty, but with blush on her face, she looks weird, like a clown on the stage.
Zhang Zhou thought to himself, maybe I am not suitable for the aesthetics of people these days, but she is a little maid accompanying her wife to meet guests, why is she doing such a grand thing
I came to ancient times , just to admire the beauties without makeup, who are they showing this whole thing to?
On the high platform, Ning Tong sat there and prepared a futon for Zhang Zhou outside. Zhang Zhou sat down without being polite. .
"Master Zhang, have you finally stopped using books to pad your butt?"
Ning Tong's first sentence surprised Zhang Zhou.
Even if you don’t come from a scholarly family or a military family, you are from a good family, right? Is it so vulgar to talk straight to your butt?
“Haha. Zhang Zhou said, "Mrs. Zhu, let's make a long story short. I'm here to inform you that it's time to ship."
"Oh"
Ning Tong just responded.
It seems that she doesn’t care whether Zhu Feng’s grain is sold or whether she makes money.
Zhang Zhou was very formal and took out the booklet Zhu Feng had given him earlier. "I have calculated that the grain purchased by the Chengguo Duke's government is nearly 100,000 dan. If such a large amount of grain is sold, how much will it cost?" It caused panic in the market, so my opinion is to transport some of the grain to Yangzhou, Suzhou and other places for sale. Madam Zhu, are you listening to what I say?"
Ning Tong poured tea by herself. Zhang Zhou's words also seemed to go in one ear and out the other.
Not even a cup of tea was sent here.
When she heard the words, she said calmly, "I heard it. They will be distributed to other places for sale. Someone in the house will coordinate with them. When I get down from here, I will notify the people in the house."
Zhang Zhouxin Said, even if you don’t care anymore, the capital and profit of the business are tens of thousands of taels, just don’t care
"Master Zhang, here is a letter from my husband, he gave it to you on the way north Written." Ning Tong said and asked the little maid to hand a letter to Zhang Zhou.
Zhang Zhou took it over and found that the letter had been opened.
Ning Tong did not shy away from saying, "The Duke's office will not let him write letters to outsiders casually. Please forgive me for unsealing them."
Zhang Zhou wanted to say, it won't be you. Let's take a look
"My husband said that the things I agreed with you are already being handled. He also said that the memorial has been sent to the capital. What is the specific matter and why should he submit the memorial with you?" Ning Tong asked.
Zhang Zhou read the letter and there was not much content in it, but Zhang Zhou also saw that Zhu Feng still trusted him and would notify him of any progress.
He put the letter in his arms and said with a smile, "It's a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."
"It's all going to be reported, anyway."Little things"
Ning Tong's tone was very cold.
Zhang Zhouxin said, you, a woman who cares so much about the private lives of Jin Lian and Ximen officials, how can you pretend to be such an iceberg beauty in front of me< /p>
“Mrs. Zhu will know later. "Of course Zhang Zhou didn't need to tell Ning Tong this.
Ning Tong said, "What about bringing the scroll here as you promised before?"
"Oh, I forgot to bring it. ”
“You”
Ning Tong originally wanted to talk to Zhang Zhou in a arrogant manner, but Zhang Zhou was so fooled that she glared at Zhang Zhou with her eyes. Come here.
Zhang Zhou is thick-skinned and is not afraid.
Zhang Zhou got up from the futon, patted his butt and said, "Bring it over later when you have time. I've already sold it." The specific strategies for food are all listed above. Please also ask Mrs. Zhu to sign and deposit it, write a receipt, and indicate the time, proving that I have informed you of the timing of the transaction, so that I can explain it to Mr. Zhu later."
"You don't trust me." Ning Tong felt that she was being looked down upon.
Zhang Zhou said with a smile, "I don't mean it, but you, the Duke of Chengguo, have a great cause, but I am just a common citizen. You can never turn back when you are entrusted by someone to be loyal." You will be splashed with dirty water"
"Miss"
The maid handed the voucher written by Zhang Zhou to Ning Tong and asked Ning Tong whether she wanted to sign it.
What Zhang Zhou didn't quite understand was that the maid had a look of disappointment on her face when she handed over the voucher. He couldn't understand this pair of masters and servants.
Ning Tong picked up the pen. After hesitating, he still signed his name on it.
After waiting for the receipt to be sent back, Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "That's good. I will definitely bring the message to Madam when we meet next time."
After saying that, Zhang Zhou turned around and went downstairs.
The maid was about to send him off, but she couldn't catch up with him.
"Miss, he" the maid looked unhappy, probably. She felt that she was also being tricked by Zhang Zhou.
Ning Tong looked into the distance and said, "He is a disciple who will keep his promises to others."
As she said this, Turning back, she first saw what seemed to be a booklet at the top of the stairs.
She pointed at it, then the maid went to pick it up, opened it and looked at it, and said in surprise, "Miss, it's the bottom of the storybook. Why is it there?" Here it is."
Ning Tong took the brochure handed over by the maid, gave the maid a blank look and said, "You can't even tell that he said no on purpose and left it down on purpose. He just wanted to say that this brochure has nothing to do with him. , He is full of evil spirits, but he cannot be said to be a lack of wisdom. ”
Speaking of this, Ning Tong was not as angry as before. She didn’t bother to talk to anyone about selling grains for the time being, so she read Zhang Zhou’s “Three Sisters and Ximen Da” on the spot.
