Infinite Doomsday: I rely on space to stock up and bully the scum

"Xiao Zhiheng! Tell me! What should we do!"

The young master was extremely angry!

Because of the news about Xiao Zhiheng, he used all the available money in the family without telling his father, and even took his mother's private savings to buy food in the provincial capital.

That's a full ten thousand taels of silver.

But once the rain starts and the weather turns cooler, grain prices will surely fall. And because grain prices were low last year and this year is less than half a year away from the autumn harvest, it is possible that grain prices will fall even lower than last year.

If it really is two cents per pound, I would have lost more than half of my silver!

If my father knew about this, I would probably lose my position as heir.

"I don't care what method you use, you have to sell this batch of grain quickly! The price must not be too low, and remember not to let my father know, otherwise..."

There was a gleam of ruthlessness in the young master's eyes.

The shopkeeper had no words to complain about, he was the one who should not have acted rashly before, he was the one who delayed the transaction time, he was the one who raised the price and drove away the customers, and now when something went wrong, he was the one who had to take the blame.

But what could he do? He could only swallow his anger.

"Remember, you must process all the food before father comes back. My bottom line is that I cannot lose money."

Shopkeeper Xiao nodded quickly and agreed. No matter whether he could do it or not, he had to get out alive first.

Walking on the street, everyone was talking about the heavy rain in the afternoon. After experiencing a long period of scorching heat, everyone was looking forward to when it would rain. Today, the rain finally came.

In stark contrast to the cheerful pedestrians on the road, Shopkeeper Xiao was walking on the road in a daze and was almost hit by someone.

He did not go home, but returned to the grain shop. The grain shop was closed at this time, and he sat alone in the shop.

No, he couldn't just sit there and wait for death.

Maybe there's still room for discussion with Jiang Jiang. I'll go see her tomorrow.

In the early morning after the heavy rain, with the mist lingering, Jiang Jiang put on a thin layer of clothes, held an umbrella, and walked out of the inn in the drizzle.

The waiter who was squatting near the inn followed Jiang Jiang stealthily, and after seeing her walk into one grain shop after another, he immediately turned around and left.

As Jiang Jiang expected, as soon as the rain came, food prices began to fall immediately.

Even if Yongchang Grain Store had said so before, everyone could make money together when it was time to make money, but now it seems that the situation is not right. Some small grain stores would rather make less money than risk bankruptcy and follow the big grain stores.

Don’t worry, this comfortable weather will last for several days and food prices will continue to fall.

Jiang Jiang had no intention of buying grain from these small grain stores at the beginning. She just came to verify her guess and put on an act for the owner of Yongchang Grain Store.

In the afternoon, Jiang Jiang, who was resting in the inn, heard a knock on the door.

She opened the door and saw the inn waiter with a flattering smile on his face.

"Madam, Manager Xiao from Yongchang Grain Store in our county wants to talk to you about something. He said he wants to discuss a business deal with you. Do you think it's convenient for you to come now?"

Jiang Jiang knew that the waiter must have received bribes to come upstairs to see her, but she didn't care about that.

The waiter took her to a private room in the inn, where the grain shop owner who had been waiting for a long time was.

Seeing Jiang Jiang coming for the appointment, he showed the brightest smile since they met.

"Mrs. Jiang, long time no see. How are you feeling lately?"

Jiang Jiang looked at the tea he handed over with a smile, but was reluctant to take it.

"Shopkeeper Xiao, we just met yesterday, how come it's been so long?"

Xiao Zhiheng gave a dry laugh, and seeing that Jiang Jiang didn't take the tea, he gently placed it on the table in front of her.

"Mrs. Jiang is a distinguished guest. It feels like a long time since I last saw you. That's why I said it's been a long time."

It sounds nice, as if the nose was not a nose, the eyes were not eyes, and the person who raised the price was not him yesterday.

Now that the situation has changed, Jiang Jiang will not tolerate him.

"If Shopkeeper Xiao is here to reminisce about the past, then please go back. I have an appointment to discuss business this afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Xiao became a little anxious. The young master's words were like a sword of authority hanging over his head all the time.

If Jiang Jiang was really snatched away by another grain merchant, he would have no place to cry.

"Mrs. Jiang, didn't we agree before that you would buy food from our Yongchang Grain Store? Don't worry, I can arrange everything for you today, and we are just waiting for you to sign the contract."

"When did we agree on this? Why don't I remember? Didn't you say that you would charge me double the price of the grain in my store? Let me think about it. According to yesterday's grain price, it would cost 3 taels and 2 cents per stone of rice. I can't afford this for my small business."

Shopkeeper Xiao smiled apologetically, took out a handkerchief from his bosom to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling secretly resentful.

I told you not to talk too much yesterday, I told you not to talk nonsense yesterday, you can’t hold on for one more day.

Shopkeeper Xiao knew that Jiang Jiang was expressing her dissatisfaction, but as long as she didn't turn around and leave, there was still a possibility that the business could continue.

Snapped!

A crisp slap sounded.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Shopkeeper Xiao slapped himself left and right, and his actions stunned Jiang Jiang.

No way, I was just being sarcastic with you, why did you start being so cruel to yourself?

"Shopkeeper Xiao, stop, stop, stop. We are here to discuss business today, not to accuse someone of anything."

Jiang Jiang didn't mind other people's self-abuse habits and quickly stopped Shopkeeper Xiao's behavior.

Sure enough, as long as you are willing to sacrifice your face, you can save your life.

Shopkeeper Xiao, with a face full of slap marks, chuckled secretly. A few slaps could be exchanged for thousands of taels of silver. He could slap himself on the street every day.

Jiang Jiang: No, no, no, I just simply don’t like seeing others slap each other in the face. We can settle business matters slowly. As long as I buy your grain at a low price, it’s OK as long as you don’t regret it in the future.

"Mrs. Jiang, I came here with sincerity this time. We have prepared 8,000 dan of rice and 5,000 dan of flour. I will give you this amount."

Shopkeeper Xiao raised two fingers.

Twenty thousand taels of silver.

Shopkeeper Xiao was heartbroken. If he had signed a contract with Jiang Jiang two days ago, he could have sold it at this price with just 5,000 shi of rice and 3,000 shi of flour.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiang, who had not bargained at all a few days ago, turned around and left after hearing this price.

Even after all this, she is still being treated as a sucker.

Shopkeeper Xiao panicked and quickly grabbed Jiang Jiang.

"Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang, if the price is not right, we can still discuss it."

"Shopkeeper Xiao, I'm actually not in a hurry to buy food. I'm not feeling well today. How about we talk about business tomorrow?"

Jiang Jiang ignored Manager Xiao's attempts to keep her and went out directly. She knew that Manager Xiao would definitely come again tomorrow.

Since the heavy rain, the weather has been getting cooler day by day.

Jiang Jiang, who had had a good sleep, came downstairs and saw Shopkeeper Xiao who had been waiting in the inn for a long time. He looked like he had not slept all night and looked very haggard.

"Mrs. Jiang, are you feeling better today? I'll ask Dr. Wang, who has been practicing medicine in the county for decades, to come and see you."
