On the streets of Songhu, two coachmen pulled a rickshaw and ran wildly.
The scar-faced man leaned back on the seat and looked at Jiang Hai Feng with confusion.
He had thought that Jiang Haifeng had something important to do at the Four Seasons Hall.
However, he never expected that his young master would not sit in the car and insist on taking this rickshaw.
Not to mention that his speed was several times slower.
More importantly, compared to a car, the comfort of a rickshaw was not as comfortable.
In the past, this man would always be picked up by a private car wherever he went, but he had never looked at this kind of bicycle.
Having been in the martial world for a long time, the scarred face boasted that he had not missed many people.
In the past, Jiang Haifeng had really been doing well. There were some things that made him gnash his teeth.
Compared to this moment, it was a little too ridiculous to say that he had been pretending in the past.
Could a person really hide his true personality so well?
Or was it that the old and young of the Jiang family liked to play such tricks in the market?
At this moment, Jiang Haifeng was not in the mood to pay attention to the scarred face's confused face.
Observing from the dock, the current Songhu County was similar to what he had expected.
The street was filled with noise.
The entrance of the rice and noodle shop was especially crowded.
The scar-faced man seemed to have noticed something strange and turned to look at the rice and flour shop.
In front of the shop, dozens of waiters were holding sticks and completely sealing the door.
A slightly bloated man was hiding behind those workers with his hands on his waist and berating them loudly.
"Are you all f * cking blind? Why don't you look at the place? This shop belongs to me, so it's my business to set the price!”
"If you think it's expensive, get lost. We're doing business. One is willing to fight, and the other is willing to accept. Don't be ungrateful!”
The humiliation immediately aroused the anger of the people.
The forty to fifty people glared at the shop owner.
"Shopkeeper Liu, how is this business? They're clearly treating us like pigs for the new year. They're slaughtering us just like that!”
"That's right! How are we going to live if you raise the price like this!
"You have to sell the rice today! He had to sell it even if he didn't want to! If you provoke us, at worst, we'll burn down your shop!”
......
The rickshaw went further and further away, and the quarrels gradually disappeared.
Jiang Hai Feng turned his head, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
This mess seemed to be more chaotic than he had imagined.
"Master, let me ask you something. I see that these shops are surrounded by people. What's going on?”
After calming himself down, Jiang Hai Feng spoke hesitantly.
The scar-faced man sat in another car with a strange expression on his face.
He thought that others might not know about this, but how could he not know?
The instigator pretended to be innocent, and the drama queen possessed him?
However, the rickshaw driver didn't know about this.
Hearing Jiang Hai Feng's question, he panted heavily and sighed faintly.
"Young master, you don't know how expensive rice is in the market now.”
"I don't know what happened. Yesterday afternoon, all the rice and noodle shops of the Zhao family closed down.”
"After a few hours, all the rice and noodle shops in the city began to raise their prices crazily.”
"Yesterday morning, the price of rice was still normal. One stone was only seven yuan. However, this morning, the price has increased by more than four times, and it is still rising.”
Jiang Hai Feng narrowed his eyes.
Interesting.
In just a day, the price of rice had increased by four times.
He had predicted it.
According to the Zhao family's shops, even if they were all closed down, less than one-fifth of the supplies in the entire Songhu county city disappeared in a day.
Even if the merchants in Songhu City had a keen sense of smell, they could only double it at most.
The doubling of resources was already not a small matter.
It was enough to make Beiyang and the other colonial empires take action.
But now, it seemed that after he made his decision, someone else had made a move in secret.
Moreover, it connected all the shops in Songhu City in just a few hours.
Or rather, some people with ulterior motives knew in advance that the Zhao family would close their shop and decided to take advantage of this gap to crazily accumulate wealth.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Haifeng sneered,""Even if the Zhao family closes their doors, aren't there still so many shops in this county? There shouldn't be a situation of snatching, right?”
The coachman laughed bitterly." You've said it already. If it's just the Zhao family closing their doors, it's not a big deal." In the past, it was not like there had never been a collective closure of old shops.”
"The shops in the city have released news that rice and noodles will be scarce in the future. After selling out the limited amount of rice and noodles, no one knows when they will open for sale again.”
"I heard from people this morning that some docks are about to stop operations. The Zhao family's dock is one of them. It is said that more than half of the rice and noodles in Songhu City are transported by the Zhao family's merchant ships. I think the price of rice and noodles has risen probably because of this matter.”
Jiang Haifeng smacked his lips.
Damn it, a bunch of profiteers!
He finally understood.
This was completely a good show directed by the chambers of commerce in Songhu City.
At the 18th Pier.
His family and the Zhao family only occupied one-sixth of the total.
If the Zhao family could really rely on the only dock to control more than half of the rice and flour transportation in the entire Songhu County, wouldn't they have long covered the sky with one hand?
Putting everything else aside, did he really think that those large and small chambers of commerce were useless?
He was afraid that the old master of the Zhao family had colluded with those chambers of commerce in advance when he closed the dock.
It was to make this mess bigger.
To the Chamber of Commerce, although they knew that the Zhao family had other motives for doing this, they were businessmen. Benefits would always come first.
The price adjustment of rice and noodles was a huge sum of money. It was just a matter of changing the pen and paper. This was money that he had picked up for free.
And the profit was as high as 400%!
Who wouldn't be moved by this?
Even if the so-called Beiyang Ministry of Finance would find trouble afterwards, the law did not punish the masses, so it was fine to just fool them.
He even had reason to suspect that the soaring prices were being protected by those people from the Ministry of Finance.
How f * cking ruthless!
He had seen people harvesting chives, but he had never seen someone harvest them so unscrupulously.
Jiang Hai Feng laughed coldly in his heart. He was even more certain of one thing.
In this era, those without power were waiting to be ripped off.
However, Jiang Hai Feng was a little curious.
What role did her father play in this matter?
Was he really just a spectator, or was he also a part of it?
However, that was not important.
Now, the water had already begun to turn muddy.
It was time to set the bait.
And this rickshaw driver was definitely a high-quality bait.
"Master, why did I hear that the Zhao family closed the shop because they had no choice?”
In the car at the side, the scar-faced man pulled his horn.
It's coming, it's coming!
This kid was acting again!
