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

Chapter 79 Returning to the Village to Show Off His Wealth

Jiang Jiang waved his hand.

"No, I feel much better today, so I won't bother the doctor."

Shopkeeper Xiao rubbed his palms together and said carefully, "Then Madam Jiang, it is better to do it today than to wait for a better day. Let's settle the matter today."

Jiang Jiang nodded slightly. He had been away from home for several days. If he didn't go back, the children at home would be worried.

Shopkeeper Xiao personally served tea and water.

The price of grain has dropped again today. In some grain shops, the price of rice has even dropped to five cents per pound. It is foreseeable that the price of grain will continue to fall.

Shopkeeper Xiao was so anxious that he couldn't sit still.

If we don’t deal with this large amount of food, the master will be back!

"Mrs. Jiang, you need a large amount of grain. In this county, only our Yongchang Grain Store can provide it. It just so happens that all the grain has been shipped to the dock. If it is convenient for you, you can go and take a look. I guarantee that it is all of the best quality."

Jiang Jiang didn't plan to continue wasting time with Manager Xiao. She understood the principle of knowing when to quit.

"Shopkeeper Xiao, I won't say any more. I'll give you one price: fifteen thousand taels of silver. I want all the goods."

this...

This price completely blocked Shopkeeper Xiao's psychological defenses.

Fifteen thousand taels is exactly the cost price of this batch of goods in the store and the goods that the young master bought from the provincial capital.

If Jiang Jiang's offer was much lower than 15,000 taels, he would definitely refuse it without a second thought.

But this price...

Shopkeeper Xiao was obviously caught in a dilemma between a natural and a mental struggle.

"Shopkeeper Xiao, please consider this carefully. Tomorrow, the price will not be the same."

"I heard that the young master has been looking for rare treasures recently. I happen to have one here. I wonder if it would appeal to your taste."

During these few days, Jiang Jiang not only ate, drank and had fun in the county, she also collected a lot of information. What caught her special attention was that recently all the merchants, big and small, in the county seemed to be looking for all kinds of rare things.

This reminded Jiang Jiang of the Zhou family some time ago.

Could there be some connection between them?

But it has little to do with her.

Shopkeeper Xiao was cheered up. If he just collected the silver, he would be in great danger if not dead. But if he exchanged the silver for something the young master urgently needed, he might be able to escape.

"I wonder if Madam Jiang would let me have a look?"

Jiang Jiang took out a black velvet box and opened it gently.

As soon as Shopkeeper Xiao saw the peculiar cloth, he knew that the things inside were of great value.

In the box was a huge, dazzling and exotic gem.

Little guy, Jiang Jiang looked at Shopkeeper Xiao's stunned expression and sighed with satisfaction, thinking that it was worthwhile for him to take out the super-large artificial diamond ring that he had spent dozens of dollars to buy.

This won’t work. She also has super large artificial gems of various colors, so there is always one that will satisfy them.

Jiang Jiang had no intention of really giving the good things to Manager Xiao and his men.

"This thing is good, but I still need to consult the master."

Shopkeeper Xiao didn't dare to make a decision on his own, so he had to invite the person to his house.

The final result of the negotiation was that Jiang Jiang exchanged the batch of grain for a diamond ring and six thousand five hundred taels of silver.

There is no way. The price of food changes every day and neither side wants to wait any longer.

Shopkeeper Xiao organized the shop assistants and the recruited porters to move all the grain to the warehouse at the dock. Another batch of grain just arrived and happened to be at the dock.

Shopkeeper Xiao patted his chest and promised that all the grain could be moved to the warehouse before tomorrow.

It was late at night and the waves on the river were beating against the rocks on the shore.

Jiang Jiang came to the warehouse near the dock in the dark.

An hour ago, Shopkeeper Xiao and Jiang Jiang inspected the goods on the spot and counted all the grain.

In order to avoid any further trouble, Jiang Jiang chose to collect all the food at night.

Countless amounts of food directly filled the space. If Jiang Jiang had not cleared most of the ice in the space before, there would probably not be enough space.

Two hours later, Jiang Jiang, dressed in disguise, followed a group of escorts out of the county.

Food prices continued to fall today.

The price of rice has dropped to four cents per pound, and the price of flour has also dropped a lot.

Shopkeeper Xiao looked at the shop which had little food in stock and smiled smugly.

In the end, he still made a profit!

There was a commotion outside the street.

"Hurry up and go to the grain store at the end of the street. The rice there is only two cents per pound! Each person is limited to buying 50 pounds. If you go too late, it will be gone!"

Two pennies?

What an idiot!

Shopkeeper Xiao didn't care at all. He just wanted the price of grain to drop as much as possible so that the grain shop could buy a large quantity.

Jiang Jiang, who had already boarded the carriage, kept her merits and fame to herself. She left 500 dan of rice and sold it to the people of the county at a low price. No matter how much grain was stored in the county, it would not flow into the rice jars of the people. Her 500 dan were enough for these people to survive the first round of famine.

To be on the safe side, Jiang Jiang told the shop assistants that he would come back in half a month to check the accounts. In fact, he had no intention of setting foot in the county town again.

Goodbye, Shopkeeper Xiao. I hope you won’t blame her when you find that food prices are rising wildly in the future.

It was another shaky day, and Jiang Jiang set foot on the land of the town again.

Perhaps affected by the county, the price of grain in the town has also dropped a lot.

Jiang Jiang, who was originally planning to go home directly, suddenly had another idea in his mind.

The entrance of Daxi Village.

Li Sheng, Li Xu and Li Cuicui were at the same time and place, looking out together, waiting for Jiang Jiang to come back.

The villagers passing by couldn't help but make fun of him.

"Hey, you three brothers and sisters are waiting for Aunt Jiang to come back again."

"How filial! Unlike those kids in my family, they just want me to leave for a few days."

Li Xu simply exchanged a few pleasantries with them.

It was originally agreed that she would be away for five or six days. Today is the seventh day, and my mother hasn't come back yet. They are all very worried and have no time to chat with the villagers.

Not only Li Xu, Li Sheng and Li Cuicui also looked unhappy.

Could something really have happened to mom?

As the eldest brother, Li Xu has secretly made up his mind that if his mother has not returned today, he will take Li Sheng to the county to look for someone.

"Li Xu! Li Sheng! Aunt Jiang is back!"

Li Changfeng, who was originally strolling outside the village, ran back to report the news.

The three Li siblings immediately became excited, stretched their necks and looked into the distance.

However, Li Cuicui gradually sensed something was wrong.

Did Li Changfeng forget to call his own name?

But the next moment, her attention was immediately attracted by Jiang Jiang returning to the village.

Jiang Jiang was seen driving an ox cart back to the village. The cart was full of food, including rice, flour, and various coarse grains.

Soon, many villagers were attracted.

They pointed at the strong yellow ox and the cart full of grain.

"Aunt Jiang, you've made a fortune!"
