Enough to feed those grain merchants who want to take over the goods.

At that time, the more you buy, the more you lose.

of course.

Zhao Wuxian would definitely raise the price of grain and restore it to around two thousand coins.

This is the grain price suitable for the Song Dynasty market that was arrived at after people from Prince Jing's Mansion visited, investigated, and analyzed everywhere.

This price is neither too high that the people would feel it is expensive, nor too low that it would hurt the farmers.

Food is of great importance to people's livelihood, so Zhao Wuxian would never let those big businessmen control the national treasures of the Song Dynasty.

Most of these businessmen and wealthy families only care about their own interests, and they don’t care at all who rules the court.

Therefore, when foreign enemies invade, these people will not only not resist but will take the opportunity to help them to commit atrocities in order to preserve their family property.

Even now.

In this commercial war, there were many big businessmen who colluded with foreign countries and wanted to make money by shipping grain to Liao, Jin and other countries.

Of course, this is not absolute.

There are still many great merchants who care about their country.

Zhao WuXian dropped a piece and said with a smile, "Buy! If they want to buy, let them buy. It's almost time to raise the price. This time, those people should make their last attempt."

Zhe Zhong left in a hurry and asked the messenger to convey Zhao Wuxian's words to all parties, including cities outside Suzhou.

These messengers are all innate masters who have practiced superior light skills. They travel back and forth without regard for the consumption of true energy and can travel thousands of miles a day.

In the entire Nine Provinces, only Prince Jing's Mansion could afford to use an innate master to send a letter.

Chapter 421 Earned three small goals in one day! Every citizen has a share of responsibility for the fate of his country!

Gusu City!

A huge commercial war kept grain merchants inside and outside the city awake day and night.

Gu family!

Once one of the Eight Masters of Suzhou.

Originally, this family was at the end of the eight families, but was included by some busybodies to make up a name.

But because of Gu Changqing's "knowledge", he can now rank among the top three among the eight families.

The other two.

One family is Princess Jing’s maiden family, the Wang family.

This family is already very powerful and is a prominent family.

The next one is naturally Prince Jing’s Mansion.

Old Madam Gu sat peacefully in her mansion. With the help of elixirs, she had already entered the second realm of the innate state, the realm of nourishing the spirit.

For a man of her age.

Every additional level is a long-awaited and great thing.

As your realm improves, your true Qi will feed back and nourish your body, which will naturally improve your physical condition and increase your lifespan.

Unless you are practicing martial arts that are harmful to your body, the more you practice, the more problems you will run into.

What old lady Gu was practicing was a health-preserving exercise called "Eight-Section Brocade"!

After she broke through, she lived a younger life.

A glimmer of hope for the Grandmaster realm was rekindled.

Mainly, the rare treasures that appeared from time to time at the auction of the Treasure Pavilion gave her some expectations.

“The price has gone up!”

The old woman who had followed her for many years came back in a hurry.

"Up?"

“It’s increased by 10%!”

"Price suddenly increased in Jingwang Mansion!"

Old Mrs. Gu frowned.

Although she prohibited anyone from the "483" family from participating in this business war.

But part of the Gu family's business is also related to food.

The Suhu area is the granary of the world, so the big families here are more or less involved with the grain fields.

It is not uncommon for large families in some places to own thousands of acres of land through repeated land mergers.

The Gu family is naturally involved, so it is impossible for them to completely ignore it.

The Jing Prince's Mansion was doing very well, but why did the prices suddenly start to increase?

Could it be that Prince Jing’s Mansion felt that the time had come to close the net?

The price of Prince Jing’s Mansion suddenly increased.

This was a wake-up call for the grain merchants who were preparing for their last gamble.

They had originally planned to buy out all the grain reserves in Prince Jing's Mansion at a low price, but now they have to pay more and higher amounts of money.

This is not a small amount, but more than one million taels.

"What should we do now?"

"Our funds and food supplies are already inferior to those of Prince Jing's Mansion, and our offensive and defensive forces are different!"

"Yes! I didn't expect that Prince Jing's Mansion could hold out for so long! How much money did they make from the Treasure Pavilion and ocean trade!"

"How about we sell the food at a lower price?"

"No, if we lower the price now, and our food reserves are used up, we will lose everything!"

Only when you have goods in hand can you influence the market and determine the price. If you don’t have goods in hand, you only have money, which is the same as losing.

When everyone gathered to discuss.

Someone came to their door and expressed his willingness to lend them a large amount of money without paying high interest.

However, if they win the business war, they need 50% of the profits.

Considering the scale of the business war at that time, 50% of the profits was by no means a small number.

This is taking advantage of the situation and making huge losses.

Under normal circumstances, who would agree to this?

But now these big businessmen are in a difficult situation, like giant beasts being forced into a desperate situation bit by bit.

As long as I still have the strength to make one last attack, I will naturally not admit defeat.

The trapped beast still fights.

The influx of a large amount of funds gave them confidence.

Many merchants suddenly became wealthy and began to make frequent purchases in the market, buying large quantities of grain stored in Prince Jing's Mansion.

Zhao Shizhen and others couldn't sit still and hurried to find Zhao Wuxian.

"Isn't this money loaned by the bank? It seems that the wealthy families in other cities can't sit still anymore and have started to take action!"

Zhao WuXian smiled and said, "The real big fish has finally appeared!"

no doubt.

Prince Jing's Mansion suddenly raised its prices by 10%, which gave the outside world an illusion. Prince Jing's Mansion could not bear it and wanted to end this business war.

"If they want to buy it, then we'll raise the price again, directly to 80% of the par price!"

"Hiss! Isn't that too harsh? It's 35% of the current price, and if it goes straight to 80%, then the price will have to increase by 45%!"

“Will those people buy it?”

"Will do!"

"Only by controlling grain can we influence market prices. What we are fighting for now is not only grain, but the market!"

"Every time we lowered the price to exchange for grain, we bought about 10% more grain than they did."

“So, they took out all the old grain.”

Those businessmen will count.

Zhao Wuxian naturally knows how to do it, and is more advanced than them.

This business war game, in the future, is similar to futures.

However, it is relatively primitive, and participants need to control real food in order to significantly influence price fluctuations in the market.

The reason why the big merchants dared to do this before was that as the food of the small vendors was exhausted, their food occupied the majority of the market.

The entry of Prince Jing's mansion disrupted their plans.

the next day!

In the morning, it's still dark.

There was a crowd of people at the entrance of Yuelai Inn in the city.

The slaves of the big merchants, hired helpers, and various buyers were waiting here early.

As the store opened, everyone was shocked to see the label.

“It’s rising, and rising again!”

"Hiss, it went up by 45% directly, to 80% of the par price!"

"It used to be 900 coins per stone, but now it costs 2,400 coins! That's too shabby!"

The grain buyers wandered around, looked at each other, and did not move forward.

Soon.
