The blessed girl of rebirth comes to the door

Chapter 148 Falling into the trap

Ten days passed, and Baishan Grain and Jishi Pharmacy gradually sold out limited quantities. For a while, the people began to get nervous, maybe they were running out.

The drug dealers and grain dealers all gloated over the misfortune, but after a short time of excitement, they stopped laughing.

Ten horse-drawn carriages, mule carts, donkey carts, and oxen carts hauled grain and medicinal materials through the market. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, some medicinal materials and grain would fall on the ground.

It attracted the people to rob it with great momentum.

For a moment, the grain merchants and drug dealers began to feel anxious again, and they were all curious about where it was shipped from.

Sometimes six horse-drawn carriages, ox-carts, and mule carts would roll through the market in five days, carrying grain and medicinal materials.

The grain merchants and pharmacists began to panic. If this continues, the grain and medicinal materials may be smashed into their hands after the heavy snow.

Grain merchants and drug dealers had to lower the price of grain, but even after lowering the price, the people still did not buy it.

Grain merchants and drug dealers had to lower their prices again and again. Finally, people lined up to buy. There were so many people buying.

Baishan Food Store and Jishi Drug Store have lowered their prices again.

Grain merchants and drug dealers were furious and also lowered their prices.

No matter how much the price of Baishan Grain Store and Jishi Drug Store dropped, the grain merchants and druggists would lower their prices even more than Baishan Grain Store and Jishi Drug Store.

For a time, Baishan Grain Store and Jishi Pharmacy started a price war with grain merchants and drug dealers.

Sometimes seven oxen carts, horse-drawn carriages, mule carts, and donkey carts hauling grain and medicinal materials swagger through the market in eight days, making people confused about the routine.

The few bags on the surface are real, but the ones underneath are filled with mud, which is just a cover-up.

It made people mistakenly think that a lot of grain and medicinal materials had been transported into the town, causing panic among grain merchants and pharmacists.

The grains and medicinal materials were smuggled in manually at night, hidden in a certain yard, and then paraded through the market when the time came.

"Is your boss really smart?" Shopkeeper Tong admired him from the bottom of his heart.

The corner of Wei Zhenyu's mouth raised, and a hint of calculation appeared in his eyes, "After the grain merchants and drug dealers lower their prices, let people dress up as common people and buy in batches. Act quickly, and they will find out before long."

"Yes, boss," Shopkeeper Tong immediately went down to give instructions.

Just after grain merchants and drug dealers lowered their prices again, a large number of people rushed to buy, and they scrambled for grain and medicinal materials.

Baishan Food Store and Jishi Drug Store limited their purchases every day, and the number of people buying them suddenly dropped by half.

At first, the grain merchants and drug dealers were complacent and did not notice any abnormalities at all. By the time they reacted, it was too late.

"The boss is in trouble." A shopkeeper hurried over to report.

"Why are you panicking? How do you behave as a shopkeeper?" the grain merchant boss scolded the shopkeeper, and then teased the bird in the cage.

"I'm rude, I hope my boss won't blame me." The shopkeeper quickly admitted his mistake.

"Tell me what's going on?" The grain merchant boss picked up the teacup and drank tea slowly.

"Boss, there have been a large number of people buying food in the grain store recently. The shopkeeper frowned and reported.

The grain merchant boss frowned and looked at the shopkeeper strangely, "Isn't this normal? What a fuss!"

The shopkeeper said with a sad look on his face, "My boss, on the surface, he seems normal, but in fact, he has discovered a small clue. Are the people who come to buy food pretending to be fake?

The young man wanted to close the shop, but he was afraid of missing out on business, so he came here to report it to his employer. "

"Disguise?" The grain merchant boss became even more confused? What is the purpose of their disguise? He fiddled with the tea lid.

suddenly! He was suddenly shocked! He stood up from the stool, let go of the tea cup and dropped it. "Bang..." it hit the ground and shattered into pieces. The tea splashed everywhere, making the bird in the cage scream in panic.

"No, go and close the shop." The grain merchant boss yelled, and he had already rushed out.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he blinked and then quickly followed.

Goose feathers were still floating in the sky, and there was still a long queue at the food store on the street. The people in their shabby cotton-padded jackets were shivering in the cold, and their heads were stained white with snow.

At this time, a man dressed as a commoner ran over and said, "Brother, haven't you bought it yet? The guests are here." He deliberately raised his voice, but in fact he was also informing others.

The secret signal is that when a guest comes, the grain merchant is coming.

The man was stunned for a moment, then said with a sad face: "Oh, there is such a long queue. I don't know when I can buy it. If you don't want to buy it, let's go."

The person at the front of the queue quickly threw the sack over and said, "Weigh more guys, I have more family members."

"Okay," the waiter weighed him the food cheerfully, not noticing anything wrong at all.

The others immediately walked over, "Brother, it's too cold today, and you've worked hard too. Why don't we pretend it ourselves, and you guys can weigh in on us."

When the guys heard that there was such a good thing, their hands were already shaking with cold, and they immediately nodded in agreement.

Soon, many people in the store helped load the food. Several clerks said that those people paid the money and ran away with the food on their shoulders, walking very fast.

Others didn't notice anything was wrong, they just thought it was cold and wanted to go back quickly.

The food in the barrels quickly ran out, and the man carried a few more packages from the warehouse and placed them in the barrels.

At this time, a carriage quickly stopped at the door, and the shopkeeper stepped out of the carriage and shouted: "We are not selling anymore, close the door quickly."

"What? Why is it closed?"

"Why not sell it?"

"..."

Everyone was talking a lot, with doubts and panic in their eyes. They hadn't bought any food yet!

The waiter was stunned for a moment, the food was no longer weighed, and he quickly closed the door.

The same situation happened in other grain stores and drug stores.

Several grain merchants and drug dealers made an appointment in the elegant room of the tea house.

"Damn it, we fell into a trap."

"Oh, I didn't expect there to be such a shameless person."

"Do you know who did this?"

"Do you still need to guess? It must be Baishan Food Store and Jishi Pharmacy Store."

"Are the grains and medicinal materials that are pulled in the car every few days fake?"

"It's true, but I'm afraid half of it is false."

"What should we do next?"

"I can't swallow this breath."

"Hmph, treat others in their own way."

"Okay, that's it?"

However, what surprised the grain merchants and drug dealers was that Baishan Grain Store and Jishi Pharmacy were temporarily closed.

What the hell? Suddenly, grain merchants and drug dealers were in chaos.

Are the people talking a lot?

"Master, what should we do next?" Shopkeeper Tong asked.

Wei Zhenyu put down his pen and spoke slowly: "Don't worry, let the grain merchants and druggists mess around for a while."

Wei Zhenyu then asked: "I asked you to arrange for the homeless to be settled and for the injured to be treated by doctors. Have you made arrangements?"

"My boss has made arrangements." Shopkeeper Tong frowned, his face sad, "But what should we do with the corpses found from the collapsed houses? Many people and their entire families are dead."

Wei Zhenyu thought deeply for a while, "Stop in one place first and wait until I think about it before I deal with it."

The Yao family and the Yang family rested at Wang Ruixue's home for half a month, and their bodies recovered as before.

Only Mr. Shan injured his bones, which were relatively slow to repair, and he had to lie in bed every day.

Wang Ruixue asked her father to make a crutch for her grandmother. Shan could use the crutch to get out of bed and walk around every day when no one was around.

Two families came to Wang Ruixue's house, and Wang Dashan had already gone to Wang Lizheng to report and register.

When Wang Lizheng asked, Wang Dashan told half truth and half lie about the reason.

Wang Lizheng's family was also very angry when they heard this. Those people didn't hoard food themselves, but went to rob others. How could this make sense.

Villagers who did not hoard food in the village skimped on food for a month and a half, and eventually ran out of food.

Almost all the food available at home was eaten, and everyone was so hungry that their chests pressed against their backs.

In order to survive, they shamelessly went to the village chief Wang's house to borrow food.

After all, Village Chief Wang is the head of a village, so he lent them some.

They went to Wang Lizheng's house to borrow food, and Wang Lizheng's family also lent them some.

After receiving the benefits, their eyes became more and more greedy, so they went to borrow food from other villagers. Some of the other villagers borrowed a little bit, but some refused directly.

They borrowed thirty kilograms of grain from a village, and then they set their sights on Wang Ruixue's family.

Before the blizzard, her family had a high yield, so she would definitely be able to borrow a lot.
