The [-] shi of grain sounds like a lot, but it is actually not worth eating.

Houcheng used to be a large county with more than 600 households. After years of war, many people fled here with their families. At present, there are still more than [-] households. Those who fled before are also returning.

Not counting these, even if the daily food consumption of the 600-plus households is about [-] catties, plus the consumption of the Houcheng military camp, [-] catties is the normal consumption amount.If the common people save a little, the consumption of [-] catties in the whole Houcheng will be indispensable.

And there are eighteen counties in Liaodong County...

Xue Xu is now the master of Houcheng, and he is very clear about the situation in Houcheng. By analogy, he also knows how much food is consumed in the entire Liaodong County, and how big is the food gap in the market.

Xue Xu gave her friend a dissatisfied look, why did you bring twenty thousand shi?

Ji Wuyin glared back at him angrily, twenty thousand stones is still less?

It was his first time to come to Liaodong County, and he took [-] shi of grain to go out on the premise that he didn't know if the business would be successful.And this is the first transaction, he has to be more cautious.

In addition, did he forget that he is just a businessman, he did business with others before, and the big transactions are similar.This old man's [-] shi of grain is still too little, he wouldn't expect to feed the people of the entire county by himself, would he?

"I wonder when your batch of food will arrive in Liaodong County?"

"It's only been two days."

In other words, settlement is imminent.

"I wonder if Mr. Ji is interested in medicinal materials in Liaodong County?" Lu Songli asked.

Ji Wuyin nodded.

Lu Songli clapped his hands, and the people below brought a batch of boxes, which were lined up in the open space.After opening, it was full of medicinal material samples.

Lu Songli looked at Ji Wuyin and made a gesture of invitation.

"Mrs. Qin Six, Ji is not very proficient in medicinal materials, can someone come up and help me palm my eyes?" Ji Wuyin asked.

"can."

With Ji Wuyin's look, his people went down, and after a while, they came up with a master.

When the old master passed by, he carried a scent of medicine.

Lu Songli picked up the tea and took two sips.They are all smart people, come prepared.Sure enough, Ji Wuyin's business is so big, there are two brushes, and he is predictive of the development of the event.

The master chef squatted down in front of the medicinal material sample box, picked up the medicinal materials and checked them one by one.

After the old master finished checking, he stood up and nodded slightly to Ji Wuyin.

"The medicinal materials in Liaodong County are good, but I don't want to replace all the food I brought with medicinal materials." He is not in the medicinal materials business!

Lu Songli understood, so she said to him, "Then let's see what medicinal materials you need and how much?"

Ji Wuyin nodded, agreeing to her suggestion.

These medicinal materials were all purchased in the name of Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, which was founded by Lu Songli, and it was purchased for the government by officials and businessmen who passed Ming Road.

There was no money in Hou Cheng's public accounts. After her father took over as the governor of Houcheng, he immediately took over the treasury of the governor's mansion.

It's a pity that Liaodong County is really not rich, and the governor Shi Tao is also loyal to the emperor. The taxes paid below, except for the food reserved for the army's nutrition soldiers, were transported back to Chang'an by him, and there was almost nothing left for him. local government.

It stands to reason that stabilizing food prices is also what the court should do.

In later generations, state-owned enterprises such as China Grain Storage were responsible for participating in the regulation of grain prices, and in ancient times there were also Changping warehouses.

Changpingcang began in the Han Dynasty. As the saying goes, food and grass go first before soldiers and horses are moved. The strong military power of the Han Dynasty also required excellent logistical support.However, due to the long distance in the border county, the cost of transporting grain from the central government was too high, so the grain was stored locally in the border county.The main purpose of the establishment of the Changping warehouse is to reduce its own expenses and losses, but it will also participate in the purchase and sale of grain.

There is a Changping warehouse in Dalibian County, and there is one in Pingzhou, which is located in Liaoxi County, which is why the governor's office is located in Liaoxi County.

However, due to various reasons, it is difficult to maintain the storage in Changping warehouses in the northeast, and the imperial court has no policy on supporting grain and grass from the central government to local Changping warehouses.

In Pingzhou, because of its geographical location, the price of food is soaring.

While the subordinates of both sides were counting the medicinal materials, Lu Songli, Ji Wuyin and Xue Xu were drinking tea.

"Mr. Ji, Houcheng plans to expand. Are you interested in opening a few shops in Houcheng? We have agreed on business tax and so on. There should be a market for some southern goods in the shops."

"Madam Sixth Qin, how is Houcheng expanded?"

"The current city wall will not be demolished, it will be used as an inner city, and then an outer city will be built." Lu Songli thinks that it is not bad to build Houcheng into a city within a city. Industrial Park, this place will become the commercial core of Houcheng and even the entire Liaodong County."

Ji Wuyin said, "I need to think about this matter." He will wait until the transaction is settled.

Lu Songli nodded, "Actually, I have another suggestion."

"What advice?"

"If Mr. Ji is not interested in our uniformly regulated shops, I can persuade my father to grant you a piece of land in the western suburbs for you to build a commercial building with a family or personal emblem. I I sincerely suggest that Mr. Ji think about it, only such a building can show your strength."

Lu Songli tried his best to fool him into adding bricks and tiles to the construction of the industrial park in the western suburbs of Houcheng.

Ji Wuyin: ... What a trick!Spend his money and help her build.

"Before that, Mr. Ji only had to pay a fee for commercial land to qualify."

Ji Wuyin's eyelids jumped, "Then I have to ask, will this commercial building with the emblem of my Ji family belong to me after it is completed?"

"The government will issue you a 20-year use certificate." Lu Songli said lightly, "If the 20-year period expires, you have the priority to renew the use right."

Ji Wuyin almost laughed out of anger at this shameless remark, the land he bought with his money, and the commercial building built with his money, in the end he only had the right to use it for 20 years!Shameless enough.

But the heartbeat is also the heartbeat.

After all, it has been decided to move the county guard's mansion to Houcheng. Houcheng is where Liaodong County is located, and its popularity and commercial value have been greatly improved.

In addition, in the core area of ​​a government office like Houcheng, it is really impressive to have a commercial building with the emblem of the Ji family.

Ji Wuyin is already worried now, can he still take away the money he sold for grain?

Xue Xu laughed secretly at the side, as expected of the lord he had identified, he really plucked the feathers of a goose, a fly flew by and had to dance with one leg in order to get away.
