Chapter 413

Liu Jin was silent for a moment. She hasn't thought about whether it is right or wrong.

It is impossible to say that she has no hatred for the Qi family.

When she sold the recipe she had made to the Qi family, she was also unwilling to accept it.

In this tormented dilemma, Liu Jin will not be happy because Zuixian building is used as compensation.

Luo Shi saw Liu Jin's face a little gloomy and quickly put away his smile.

"What's the matter? Why do you look so unhappy? Did your mother say something wrong?"

Roche asked in wonder.

Liu Jin quickly shook her head and reluctantly smiled, "No. I just thought that the childe might not really be able to get Zui xianlou to exchange with us. I don't know what conspiracy he has, so I'm worried."

Roche thought about it, and he thought that a group of them thought it was a little simple.

Although she hasn't seen Qi Shenghua, she also knows Qi Shenghua from the mouth of Tang Daqiang and others.

The young master of such an aristocratic family is not a fool. Naturally, he will not do business at a loss.

"Well, what do you say we should do now?"

Roche suddenly became a little godless. He looked at Liu Jin and waited for Liu Jin to give him an idea.

Liu Jin said with a bitter smile, "what else can we do? Let's see if they go to the Yamen with the contract of Zui Xian Lou at noon. If people really give us Zui Xian Lou, can we do it?"

"That must be!" Roche immediately replied with certainty that a fool would not want such a big restaurant.

Then, under the care of Roche, Liu Jin washed her face, went downstairs to have some breakfast, and went to find the rice merchant with Tang Daqiang.

At this time, there was still some time before the invitation at noon, so she planned to make a deal about the rice merchant first.

This was originally completely left to Tang Daqiang, but Liu Jin thought that she might need a lot in the future, so she planned to go there in person and make a big list, or be prepared.

Tang Daqiang is ready and waits for Liu Jin. Today, Liu Jin simply asked Shilixiang hotel not to open for the time being because of the contract.

Liu Xiaoxiao is on one side, just like a maid accompanying Liu Jin. When Liu Jin finished breakfast, she brought Liu Jin tea and rinsed her mouth respectfully.

Liu Jin knew that she was more attentive than before because Liu Jin wanted to teach her to cook, and it was not easy to refuse her.

Tang Daqiang led the way in front and said to Liu Jin, "there has been a famine recently, and the price of grain in the city has increased a lot. Our hotel also has some contacts with a rice merchant. The relationship is fairly good. The little owner will go and have a look first?"

Liu Jin nodded. Since Tang Daqiang recommended so, she didn't brush his kindness.

The four of them came to the rice merchant's shop. Gao Dajun stood outside and waited. Liu Jin and Tang Daqiang went in and met the rice merchant.

This is a shrewd old man. Seeing Tang Daqiang, he smiled and said, "shopkeeper Tang, what brings you here? Come on, please sit down, please sit down."

The old man said and looked at Liu Jin.

Perhaps it is because Liu Jin's status is noble in the eyes of outsiders under the service of Liu Xiaoxiao. The old man didn't dare to underestimate Liu Jin. He looked kind.

"Mr. Li, you're happy with me again. This is our young boss. I'm here to take care of your business."

Tang Daqiang laughed and laughed with the old Li to win over the relationship.

Hearing the speech, old Li immediately said with a smile, "it's easy to say. It's not the first day we do business. This young owner doesn't know how many meters to buy?"

When it comes to business, the old man's eyes burst out. It seems that he wants to see through how much money Liu Jin's purse has and what he should do to make Liu Jin pay more money.

Liu Jin smiled and said, "can I see the rice first?"

Old Li was stunned, immediately reacted, smiled and said, "look at me, I forgot the first time the young owner came. Of course, please follow me."

Under the guidance of Li Lao, Liu Jin saw that many warehouses containing rice in the shop were empty and had to go to the inner yard.

In the inner courtyard, there is a grain depot, which is where the store stores grain.

There are two big warehouses full of rice. In addition, half of the house is full of sacks, which are filled with grain.

"Look, the grain is full and bright. It's not old rice. Don't worry."

Liu Jin looked at it and found that it was really some good food.

However, the crops in this area didn't harvest well this year. Where did he get so much grain?

At the thought of this, Liu Jin asked.

Hearing the speech, the old Li smiled and said, "most of our rice merchants' grain is not collected from the nearby people. It used to be, but this year, we have already collected grain from other states and counties."

"Of course, I didn't collect it myself. It was collected by other rice merchants and then sold to our small businessmen."

In a few words, old Li made his words clear.

Liu Jin nodded slightly at the speech.

"Li Lao, do you have to raise the price of rice again?"

Tang Daqiang hurriedly asked, "we are long-term customers. You can't fool us."

Li Lao immediately said, "how can I? But the price of rice in the market is really rising all the time. I can't help it."

Liu Jin grabbed a handful of rice, smelled it and scattered it back.

She turned and looked at Li Lao, "how much is a kilo of rice?"

After thinking about it, old Li stretched out a hand and turned it twice.

"Fifteen Wen a kilo? It's more expensive than meat?"

Tang Daqiang was a little surprised. Although he knew it, he didn't expect it to be so expensive.

Li Lao immediately said, "these are new rice. It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to transport them all the way. When I bought it at the rice store, it was almost this price. I didn't earn you much?"

Tang Daqiang was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to make a decision for a while.

Liu Jin wants to buy 1000 Jin. This breath is 15 Liang silver. It's only the first time. I don't know how many times she will buy it in the future.

"When I bought it before, it cost almost ten Wen a kilo." Tang Daqiang said to Liu Jin.

The price of rice has been rising continuously because of the famine, but I didn't expect it to be so high.

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoxiao said to Liu Jin, "where is the rice shop? Let's go to the rice shop?"

Since the rice merchant bought grain from the rice shop, it must be cheaper to find the rice shop.

However, Liu Jin sighed.

Tang Daqiang quickly replied, "the rice line is in Lingyang county. It takes several days to transport so much rice. It's not cheap."

Old Li nodded repeatedly and said, "I just earned a little money for the trip. I really didn't earn you much. I'm an acquaintance with shopkeeper Tang. How can I break up this long-running business?"
