Chapter 414

Liu Jin nodded and thought about it in her heart.

If it is rice transported from other places, this price is not impossible. However, she doesn't need to buy such good rice, as long as she can satisfy the hunger of the villagers in Linluo village.

"Li Lao, don't you know if you have aged rice here? We don't need this high-quality rice."

Liu Jin asked, retreating to the second place.

Li was stunned and took a look at Tang Daqiang.

"Yes, yes. However, if customers know that you open restaurants and buy old rice, I'm afraid..."

Li Lao is also worried. After all, the better the rice in the hotel restaurant. Not afraid that the guests can't afford it, just afraid that the guests don't like it.

Seeing this, Tang Daqiang immediately took old Li aside and whispered to old Li.

Li Lao understood Liu Jin's intention to buy rice.

"So it is. The young owner is really kind-hearted." After understanding the cause and effect, old Li praised Liu Jin.

Liu Jin nodded gently. She didn't mean to show off her good deeds in front of others, and she didn't need others to praise her.

Old Li went to a corner and sent some sacks piled up here.

"These are the grain left over from last year. You can have a look. If you want to buy it, I can give you ten Wen a catty."

Ten Wen a kilo, which is higher than usual. I don't know how much.

However, this is also normal. After all, grain prices are rising now, and even old grain is rising. In this way, many people are still rushing to buy it.

At this time, Tang Daqiang untied a sack, took out a handful of grain and showed it to Liu Jin.

These are the grains that have not been removed from the husk. Although it is not difficult for people, it also costs ten Wen a kilogram, which is really beyond Liu Jin's expectation.

"Just look."

Liu Jin told Tang Daqiang to let Tang Daqiang observe other sacks to avoid fraud.

After Tang Daqiang looked around and determined that there was no problem, he looked at Liu Jin and asked Liu Jin whether to change his family.

There is no problem with food, but the price is more expensive. Tang Daqiang thinks he can go to other homes and make a decision now.

However, Liu Jin doesn't think so.

Since the old Li also said that small water flows long and business needs to be done bit by bit, there is no problem of deception. Even if you look at a few more, the price won't be too bad. If the price is too low, the quality must be no better.

"Just buy it here."

Liu Jin nodded to Tang Daqiang.

Tang Daqiang discussed with Li Lao whether he could ask for more benefits. After all, these are old rice from last year. If they were bought last year, they would sell at most seven Wen a kilogram.

Therefore, when old Li collected these grains, he almost didn't even get five Wen. Now he must be crazy to sell ten Wen.

Therefore, Tang Daqiang asked Li Lao to transport the grain to Linluo village when the time came.

Old Li hesitated for a while. It was hard to go this way, and he still had to transport heavy grain. If Liu Jin bought less, he would lose a lot.

"How much grain are you going to buy?"

"A thousand jin. But I should buy it again several times every day in the future."

Old Li heard that a thousand kilograms was not a small amount, and there were tens of thousands of kilograms of rice in his granary. I'm afraid these aged rice is only two or three thousand kilograms.

"OK, since it costs 1000 Jin, I'll hire an ox cart to deliver it to you."

After thinking for a while, old Li agreed.

Liu Jin walked up to the two of them at this time and said, "since it's grain, you can't just buy a thousand kilograms as you thought before. I think you might as well buy all the aged rice here. It's estimated that it's only two or three thousand kilograms?"

Old Li nodded and said, "more than 2800, I'll round up an integer for you. If you really want to buy them all."

Tang Daqiang looked at Liu Jin in surprise, but since Liu Jin had decided, he didn't say much.

"Well, we'll deliver the silver at that time. Please prepare first and send the grain to Linluo village and Luo Dahu's house in advance."

Liu Jin said and planned to leave.

Tang Daqiang quickly told old Li several times, and then chased out to keep up with Liu Jin.

Liu Jin took them walking in the street.

This is usually a busy street. At this time, there are not even a few small vendors, which is particularly cold.

"Young boss, are we too anxious to make a final decision? Maybe we can find a more suitable one."

Tang Daqiang said.

The total amount of this grain is forty-two Liang silver. No matter how rich you are, you can't afford such waste.

Liu Jin looked at him, then shook her head and said, "the consequences of the famine will only become more and more serious. At that time, the price of grain will rise. Next time, even these aged rice may cost 15 Wen."

Tang Daqiang was stunned, then frowned and said, "the government will certainly restrict it at that time, and will never let the rice merchants bid up the price at will."

These are clearly stipulated. If the rice merchants do so, the government will intervene so that the people will not be able to buy food and cause panic.

Liu Jin nodded and said, "yes. At that time, the government will never let us easily buy thousands of kilograms of grain. I don't know. I thought we were hoarding grain and preparing to make huge profits."

After hearing this, Tang Daqiang had to praise Liu Jin for seeing farther than him. Even these thought of it.

Later, Liu Jin took Tang Daqiang and Liu Xiaoxiao to inspect other restaurants.

Although it was not time for the guests to go to the restaurant at this time, Liu Jin was able to figure out the usual business from some traces of a restaurant.

Walking through the back door of hotels and restaurants, you can see the busy situation in the kitchen.

As a result, Liu Jin found that the business of these restaurants can be described as "deserted".

Thinking about it, Liu Jin and Tang Daqiang came to Taihe building.

Shopkeeper Yao Fu has taken care of it in the hotel at this time. He was directing two lazy boys to clean up when he saw Liu Jin and Tang Daqiang coming.

"Yo, why are you here? You're not here for dinner so early in the morning, are you?" Shopkeeper Yao Fu smiled and took two people to sit down at one table and poured them hot tea.

"No, business is hard to do, so I came to ask shopkeeper Yao for advice." Tang Daqiang smiled and didn't explain his intention positively, so Yao Fu couldn't guess the purpose of Liu Jin's trip.

"What can I ask for advice? I don't have many guests in Taihe building all day. I'm looking forward to lonely souls and wild ghosts."

Yao Fu sighed. Of course, he didn't really want those unlucky people to join in the fun of his hotel.
