Chapter 1243： Defining food prices
Chapter 1243 defines food prices
A group of large and small grain merchants in Jingnan County discussed for a long time in the Jingnan County Yaban room. Under the leadership and instigation of the three largest grain merchants, they reached a consensus and made an oath with tea instead of wine: the whole county's grain merchants are firmly united and unanimously open to the outside world. Firmly do not cut prices! Whoever lowers the price privately is the public enemy of the county's grain merchants! Never die!
Treasurer Tai and Manager Lu were no exception, and they also made an oath with everyone. First of all, there are 10,000 of them in their hearts who are unwilling to lower the price. At first, they were only afraid of being the first sheep and warning monkeys. Now the whole county’s grain merchants have sworn to reach a consensus. They think that they are just small grain merchants. They are also qualified to be big grain merchants who are the top sheep and warning monkey chickens, and they are safe; secondly, the entire county grain merchant alliance has vowed that if they do not participate, they will become the enemies of the entire county grain merchants. If the county magistrate makes a move, these grain merchants can tear them apart.
I don't know if it was intentional, but Zhu Ping'an came late after all the grain merchants reached a consensus and made an oath.
"Meet the county lord."
"Meet the magistrate."
Seeing Zhu Pingan push the door in, a group of grain merchants stepped forward to salute Zhu Pingan one after another.
Zhu Pingan glanced at the crowd with a smile, waved his hands at them, and said warmly: "Excuse me, excuse me. I am busy with official duties, so I didn't check the time for a while. I tired you of waiting for a long time."
"Don't dare, how dare, the county lord has broken us. The county lord pleads for the people, and handles all kinds of opportunities every day. He is responsible for hundreds of thousands of people in the county. We should wait even if we wait."
A group of grain merchants said that when they noticed that Zhu Pingan was looking at them, many grain merchants were guilty and dared not look at Zhu Pingan, after all, they had just finished their vows.
"Everyone, please sit down. This time I invite you here, I think you all know why. I don't go around in circles anymore. This time I invite you here for the price of food."
Zhu Ping'an sat in the main seat, and didn't go around too much, and said straight to the point to a group of grain merchants.
Sure enough, it was for food prices!
A group of grain merchants looked at each other, and there was no surprise about this, they were clear in their hearts.
Zhu Pingan glanced at all the grain merchants one by one, and then said: "The so-called food is the most important thing for the people. Now that the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, food is the top priority, and the price of food is the first. If the price of food is unstable, Jingnan will not Stable, so this official intends to define the price of grain in Jingnan. However, the determination of grain price is related to the people's livelihood and the overall stability of Jingnan County, and it affects the whole body. The grain merchants here know a lot about grain, and I want to hear your thoughts? You don’t have to worry about it. If you have any ideas, tell me the truth, and I guarantee that you won’t be punished for your words.”
"What?! Define grain prices in Jingnan?!"
A group of grain merchants were shocked when they heard the news, their faces were full of shocked expressions, and many grain merchants exclaimed out of control.
Define Jingnan food price!
For their grain merchants, this is a big deal. What does it mean to define grain prices, that is to fix grain prices! Once the food price is fixed, they are not allowed to raise the price again!
Right now, food prices in various parts of the south of the Yangtze River are rising three times a day. If the county officials define the price of food in Jingnan, then the price of food in Jingnan will not be able to rise any further, and their losses will be immeasurable!
They originally thought that Zhu Ping'an wanted them to lower the grain market price based on the three daily increases. For example, the market price of grain in the morning was 1,350 renminbi, while that in Jingnan was 1,340 renminbi; at noon, the market price was 1,355 renminbi, and the price in Jingnan was 1,345 renminbi Wen; the market price in the evening is 1360 Wen, and the grain price in Jingnan is 1350 Wen. Even so, they couldn't accept such a price cut, let alone set the price of grain in Jingnan, and they were not allowed to raise the price again!
Ruthless!
Xian Zun is really ruthless!
All the grain merchants never expected that Zhu Ping'an would be so ruthless! They even tried to limit the grain price in Jingnan!
Yang Zhen, the shopkeeper of Yangji Food Co., Ltd., kept his identity and winked at a small shopkeeper beside him.
The shopkeeper's business relies mostly on Yang Ji's grain company. After receiving Yang Zhen's hint, he stood up bravely and said to Zhu Ping'an: "Master, it's not that we don't want to wait, but most of the people in the south of the Yangtze River now After the flood, the former land of fish and rice and the world’s granary became a land of grain shortage. We and other grain merchants in the south of the Yangtze River could not receive grain, so we had to go to Bashu in the west and Shandong in the north to collect grain, not to mention the long journey. , The grain in Bashu and Shandong is also rising. The local grain used to be 410 mana a stone. Last time our shop manager went to Shandong to collect grain, and the bid was 500 mana. Hiring nursing homes, etc., the food is getting harder and harder to collect, and our costs are getting bigger and bigger. Please think twice and give us a way to survive."
After someone started, all the grain merchants also spit out their bitterness to Zhu Ping'an.
"It's a matter, Mr. County. Even if we collect grain from Bashu and Shandong, it will not be easy to transport it to Jingnan. Not to mention the bandits and bandits along the way, but now that there are floods in the south of the Yangtze River, there are countless refugees and victims. When they see the grain, they immediately It’s like a hungry wolf seeing meat. As soon as our grain trucks enter the border of the south of the Yangtze River, we are always in danger of being looted by refugees and disaster victims..."
"Xianzun, everyone is from the village. We also want to sell food to everyone at a low price, but where is our cost? It’s impossible to sell food at a loss, if we lose money, our whole family can only drink the northwest wind, and then we can only close our doors and go out of business.”
"Xianzun, we got up early to slander, we worked so hard, and we just supported our family, please be considerate. Besides, the price of food is not set by us, we also go to the market as we go... Please think again. "
…
For a while, the class room seemed to be a meeting of grain merchants complaining, and there were constant complaints.
Right, that is it. The law does not blame the crowd, as long as we hold together, we will not be afraid of him, Zhu Ping'an.
Shopkeeper Yang of Yangji Food Co., Ltd. was very satisfied with everyone's performance, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help curling up. He glanced at Zhu Pingan out of the corner of his eye.
He was surprised to see that Zhu Pingan listened patiently and complained, nodded while listening, without any discomfort on his face, and listened patiently all the time, without interrupting anyone in the middle.
No...it shouldn't be, shouldn't the county lord be angry if we are like this? !
horrible!
terrible! Xianzun is young, and his skill in nourishing Qi is too deep! Such a person is terrible.
Shopkeeper Yang couldn't figure it out, so he had to attribute all this to Zhu Pingan's deep energy-raising skills and deep city palace.
Immediately, the shopkeeper Yang couldn't help but be afraid of Zhu Ping'an. If it wasn't for his own huge interests, shopkeeper Yang really didn't want to have a grudge with such a person who has a lot of skill in nourishing energy and a deep city.
