Chapter 198

The champion is in the building.

Chumo grabs a cake and bites off more than half of it. The delicious food spreads from his tongue to the whole nerve, and a satisfactory sound is made in his throat.

Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin were like wolves, swallowing delicious food as if they had been hungry for three days. The whole table of delicious food disappeared quickly.

"As for?" Merton could not help but smack his tongue.

"If you practice hard every day and don't let you eat well, try it!" Chumo stammered with something in his mouth.

The other two nodded again and again. They practiced martial arts every day. They digested a lot, and the food was extremely single. Although it was not bad, it was definitely not delicious. If they had been used to the food of the Mohist Food City, it would be difficult to swallow the food.

He swallows the delicious food in his mouth. Chumo subconsciously reaches for it, but suddenly stops.

Merton asked in surprise, "why, it's not enough. I'll ask the man to send some more."

Chumo said bitterly, "forget it! If you eat too much, you'll suffer yourself."

Chumo can't help fighting a cold war when he thinks of the hardships he has suffered during this period of hard training. After all, he doesn't want to be beaten by his father again and pull him home to practice hard.

"Hey!"

Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also sighed and felt that they would put down the food in their hands.

Putting down the delicious food, Chumo looks at Merton bitterly and says, "Merton, although you saved us, your moves are too insidious. It's killing eight hundred enemies and losing one thousand!"

"Yes!" Wei Chi Baolin nodded heavily, thinking of the heavy feeling of those sandbags tied to his body, he could suffer in the future.

Qin Huaiyu looked at the two bad friends spitting bitterness, and his heart suddenly balanced.

"I can still pit you. These sandbags keep you for a year and a half. You have made great progress in martial arts. When you graduate, you will be liberated." Merton bowed.

"You can really make great progress in martial arts!" Chumo said with half confidence.

"When will I lie to you!" said Merton.

"Oh! I'll keep practicing when I get back!" Chumo nodded.

Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also nodded silently. The trust between friends is so simple. Since Merton said it was useful, they just did it.

"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be surprised," Merton said confidently.

The most effective way of training, which has been verified in the future, will certainly not disappoint them.

"I heard that the changsun family is looking for trouble from the Mohists again?" Qin Huaiyu asked casually.

Chumo and Chumo stop silently and look at Merton. Obviously, they have heard the news.

Merton smiled and said, "it's just some small hands. I don't care at all."

The three nodded silently. Since Merton said so, he obviously didn't want them to intervene in this matter.

Although Merton said so easily, in fact, the situation faced by the Mohists is very dangerous.

After seeing Qin Huaiyu off, Xu Jie immediately greeted them.

"Young master, the iron shops in Chang'an city banned the sale of iron materials to the Mohists on the grounds that they used too much iron." Xu Jie frowned and reported.

Merton raised his eyebrows. It was obviously the eldest grandson's family who made the move. He asked, "have you ever handed over the records of the Mohist son's use of iron to the iron bank?"

Xu Jie nodded and said, "they've all been sent, but they're useless. The iron shop doesn't look at them at all. It's just that the excessive use of iron by the Mohists has led to an increase in iron prices. They can't sell iron to the Mohists without the permission of the government."

Merton snorted coldly. It was the iron bank that benefited from the rise in iron prices. Obviously, they didn't dare to offend the long Sun family.

"What about the leveling department? What do you say?" Merton asked. The leveling bureau is the Datang Price Bureau, which is specially responsible for the prices of the East and West cities.

"The leveling and Standards Department accepted our iron use records, but it didn't let go." Xu Jie said reluctantly. Obviously, the influence of the changsun family plays a role in it. The high price is the business of the iron industry. How can the Mohist family be blamed.

"How much iron do we have in store? How long will it last?" Merton asked.

Xu Jie calculated and said, "after the owner ordered, Mojia village took the time to buy a large number of iron materials. Now it can only support the cost of one month."

Merton narrowed his eyes and nodded: "one month is enough! Immediately spread the news in Chang'an City, saying that Mojia village bought iron at a premium of 10%

"Ten percent?" Xu Jie exclaimed.

Ten percent is one tenth. You know, the monthly iron cost of Mohism is not a small amount. If you add ten percent, it is not a small amount.

"People die for money and birds die for food. With 10% of the profits, naturally someone will send the iron material to the hands of Mojia village." Merton sneered.

"Then we've lost too much money!" Xu Jie said heartily.

"The problem that can be solved with money is never a problem!" Merton said meaningfully.

After all, Mojia village is not a broken settlement before. Spending a little more money will not hurt the muscles and bones of Mojia village. Moreover, after the iron in Mojia village is converted into steel, the price increases several times, at most making a little less, and it can't lose.

"Where's the leveling department?" Xu Jie hesitated.

Merton sneered: "the Standards Department can control the selling price and the price we buy."

"Yes, young master!" said Xu Jie.

………………

Soon, the news that Mojia village purchased iron materials at a premium of 10% spread all over Chang'an city.

"10% premium?" many people couldn't help smacking their tongue when they heard the speech.

Chang'an city is the city with the strongest commercial atmosphere. People are acutely aware of business opportunities while smacking the pride of Mojia village.

As long as they buy a piece of iron material from the iron shop and sell it to Mojia village, they can make a net profit of 10%. You know, the price of iron is not low. Adding 10% is also a big profit. Where can they find a business that makes money.

"Drive."

A four-wheel truck, loaded with a heavy load of iron, slowly drove out of changsun iron.

Xu blacksmith and his son looked at the full load of iron materials and nodded with satisfaction. The four-wheel truck of the Mohist school is practical. If these iron materials are usually used, they must let their father and son run four or five times. Now it's too convenient to pull them easily.

Not far from Dongshi, the son of blacksmith Xu, who was in charge of driving, came up to blacksmith Xu's ear and underestimated a few words.

"Seriously?" blacksmith Xu exclaimed.

"Father, don't worry, it's what I heard. Mojia village paid a 10% premium for iron materials." Xu blacksmith's son looked at a cart of iron materials with hot eyes. These iron materials were at least 40 stone iron materials and more than 4000 kg. If he sold them to Mojia village, he could earn at least five yuan even if he made only 10%.

That's five dollars! They worked hard in Xu's blacksmith shop for a month, but now they can make money only by changing hands.

"That's not good. People are gods fighting. Let's get involved. If we offend the eldest grandson's family, our father and son won't be able to eat and walk around." blacksmith Xu shook his head.

Xu blacksmith's son said, "although the eldest grandson's family is the largest in Chang'an City, there are other families. Each of our iron shops only buys one car and sells it to Mojia village. Who can find it."

Blacksmith Xu hesitated for a moment, and finally his desire for money prevailed. He nodded and said, "let your brothers come together and change one person in each family. Don't expose the signboard of blacksmith Xu."

"Yes! Father!" said Xu blacksmith's son excitedly, driving his carriage outside the south city.
