When he heard the news, he immediately realized that in the next few months, or even half a year, food would be extremely scarce, and the price would skyrocket!
And now, Zhu Ci 'an had monopolized all the food in the capital.
If he bought all the food before anyone else while Zhu Ci 'an was still in the dark…
He would have made a fortune!
Thinking of this, he immediately stared at Zhu Cian with burning eyes and said,""Young Master Zhu, 310,000 taels of silver. We'll take all of your food!”
"As long as you nod, I will immediately take out some silver and sign with you!”
Hearing this, Zhu Ci 'an was overjoyed!
It seemed that the Henan Province was really in trouble!
However, when he heard 310,000 taels, he lost interest and shook his head.""310,000 taels? Too little!"
"One price, 610,000 taels. I'll sell half of the grain to you.”
Six…Six hundred and ten thousand taels…
And only half…These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, and Li Ping 'an's heart instantly turned cold.
It was over. It seemed that this prodigal had already received the news.
I can't fool him anymore!
He gritted his teeth and pondered for a moment. In the past, when grain prices soared, they would reach an astonishing height.
410,000 taels of silver to buy half of it, and he could make a lot of money by flipping it a few times.
If it was a loss, then so be it.
"410,000 taels!" he said hurriedly. At most 410,000 taels!"
Hearing his bargaining, Eighteen Wang was stunned.
610,000 taels was already scary enough.
But this guy was not scared away by Zhu Ci 'an's price. How profitable was this grain?
Zhu Cian shook his head without hesitation.""One price, 610,000 taels!"
"If you don't agree, let's drop this matter as soon as possible!”
Seeing Zhu Cian's determined look, Li Pingan felt extremely regretful.
If he had known this day would come, why didn't he follow them and store up grain?
The dignified seven-foot-tall man could not help but cry bitterly at this moment. With a plop, he knelt on the ground.
He stretched out his hands and hugged Zhu Cian's thigh. He begged unwillingly,""Zhu gongzi, let's discuss it again. 510,000 taels, what do you think?“
"On account of the fact that I bought your land, poor poor little one, sell it for 510,000 taels!”
Zhu Ci 'an felt Li Pingan's big hand caressing his legs, and he felt a chill in his heart.
He raised his leg and kicked him to the ground. He scolded,"What are you touching? This Young Master doesn't have any fetishes!"
"If you touch me again, I won't sell you a single grain!”
"I won't touch it anymore, I won't touch it anymore."
Li Ping 'an saw that he was determined and knew that there was no hope.
His expression changed a few times. He gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and shouted,"Good! 610,000 taels then! However, Young Master Zhu, you have to agree to a request of mine!”
"If you have something to say, say it. This Young Master is busy.”
"After this lowly one pays the silver, Young Master Zhu cannot sell the other half of the grain to others, or else this lowly one will lose all of his underwear!”Zhu Ci 'an waved his hand." I have a great use for that half of the grain. I won't sell it even if you pay me a million taels."”
Li Ping 'an smiled and quickly flattered,""Young Master Zhu, you're really…really a dutiful person. I admire you from the bottom of my heart!”
"Here are 310,000 taels of treasure notes. Take it as my deposit. As for the rest of the silver, I'll go and raise it now!”
"Tomorrow morning, I will send the silver to your residence. What do you think?”
Even with his wealth, he could not afford such a large sum of silver. He had to borrow money from all over the place to gather it.
Zhu Cian did not waste any time. He waved his hand and said,""Sign it!"
In his opinion, if he was willing, he could raise the grain price to a frightening height, but doing so would take too much effort.
Since that was the case, he might as well sell the grain to Li Ping 'an in one go. It would save him the trouble.
Run!
Running away was the most important thing.
I'm someone who wants to do such a big thing with all my heart. I can't be distracted by such a small matter.
The butler Dahai was stunned and gave the young master a thumbs up.
Awesome, awesome, Young Master is really awesome!
With just a few words, he had swindled a whole 610,000 taels of silver!
Young Master had become so powerful after his brain disease was cured?
Why don't we think of a way to get a brain disease?
Li Ping 'an was overjoyed. He quickly stood up and smiled apologetically."Okay, okay, okay. I'll sign with you now.”
Zhu Cian was about to take him to the study when he saw Eighteen Wang standing there in a daze.
He asked in surprise,"Hey, you poor bastard, why aren't you leaving?"”
Poor guy?
Wang Shiba was confused by this name, but thinking about it, it definitely wasn't an honorific.
His expression turned ugly as he said angrily,"Zhu, I condescended to come to your residence to give you face, but you actually don't know how to appreciate kindness and humiliate me like this?”
Zhu Cian put his hands behind his back and said in a condescending manner,""So what if I humiliate you? If you don't scram, don't tell me that I'll get someone to break your legs!”Wang Shiba was so angry that his chest felt stuffy. He used his trump card."I am the disciple of the current Hanlin Huang Shi, Lord Huang. You dare to hit me?”
"Today, you have to sell this salt-making method even if you don't want to!”
"If you know what's good for you, hurry up and hand over the method with both hands. Otherwise, even if the emperor comes, he won't be able to save you!”
Huang Shi?
Hearing this name, Zhu Cian was stunned.
Isn't this guy Zhu Yunwen's teacher?
Why was he eyeing his salt production method?
Could it be…
For a moment, Zhu Ci 'an had countless speculations.
Wang Shiba looked at his stunned expression and laughed. He said disdainfully,""What, are you afraid now?”
Zhu Cian was speechless.
Would this young master be afraid of a guy who would be beheaded by the King of Yan, Zhu Di, in a few years?
What a joke!
He couldn't help but sigh.""To be honest, if you weren't Huang Shi's disciple, I would have let you off.”
"But the moment you mention Huang Shi, this Young Master will have to give you a beating!”
Then, he turned to Butler Dahai and said,""Come on, loosen this bastard's bones!”
When Wang Shiba had spoken rudely to the Young Master, Dahai and the other servants in the manor were already fuming.
Upon hearing Young Master's order, everyone sneered and rushed over.
"Young Master, watch carefully!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a servant picked up a long stick and smashed it fiercely on Wang Shiba's head.
The strength of this strike was astonishing!
Blood immediately flowed out of Wang Shiba's forehead. He was completely stunned." You…you dare to hit me?!"
"You disrespected the young master, you deserve to die!”
After the servant finished speaking, he wanted to swing the stick down again. Seeing this, Zhu Cian reached out to stop him and said,""Wait, wait!"
Hearing this, Wang Shiba laughed coldly. It seemed that this prodigal finally realized the consequences of offending him.
But at this time, Zhu Ci 'an said with a pained expression,""Do you know how to hit people? He would never be able to remember this beating!”
"Go get a knife and stab his butt to open his eyes!”
"Only in this way can he feel the pain so deep that he won't be able to get out of bed for eleven days to half a month!”
"Yes, Young Master!"
