The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chen Guanshi walked out of the grain shop in a daze, and went back to the small rented yard with a frown. The leading guard came out to welcome him, "Guan Chen, how are you?"

Chen Guanshi shook his head, "Not only did the food price not drop, but it went up a lot."

Wei Yan frowned and said: "Then what should we do? We have been out for so long, and if we don't go back, the little general and Mr. Fan may have to wait in a hurry, and the price of goods in Lin'an Mansion is also too high. There are more than 30 of us in one day." The cost is not small."

Chen Guanshi rolled his eyes and said: "It's fine to talk about this in front of me, but don't talk about it outside, lest others think we are poor. You can't show your timidity in a rich place like Lin'an Mansion, otherwise you will be No matter how much money you have, you can still be cheated, not to mention, are we the kind of people who care about such small expenses? Those diced rabbit meat and cured rabbit meat make enough money for you to eat and drink like this for ten lifetimes."

Wei Yanheng frowned and said: "But the money belongs to the master. I have already had a problem with you taking the money from the master to invite people to eat and drink."

"Hey," Chen Guanshi glared at him, "are you serious? This is called business, do you understand? If we don't invite people to eat and drink, how can our things be sold at such a high price? Oh, according to your idea, take the things as a family A dry goods store recommended by a dry goods store, you don’t feel too tired to panic? This is the second thing, if you do this, you will lower your status first, and any guy can beat you to death, so Mr. Fan told you to listen to everything What about mine."

Wei Yan turned his head and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Tell me, when can we buy food and go back to Xingzhou Mansion? I don't want to stay in Lin'an Mansion for a day."

The first few days were quite novel, after all, it was the first time he had seen such a big city and such a bustling city when he grew up, but after a few days of shopping, Wei Yan was already tired of it.

Lin'an mansion is full of flowers, it is a place of wealth and splendor, living inside seems to be unaware of the suffering outside, if he hadn't just come from Xingzhou mansion and lived in the border area since he was a child, he would have thought that the great Zhou Dynasty was prosperous and peaceful.

The longer Wei Yan lived here, the more unhappy he became. These blooming flowers were piled up with so many lives, and the general and the junior general had to do business to make money and buy food in order to lower their identities for the soldiers' food and military salaries.

These people are obviously protected by them, but they should accept it safely.

Can it be said that it is the fault of the people of Lin'an Prefecture? No, Wei Yan used to complain for the soldiers at the border in the wine shop, but the people at the nearby wine table said how much extra military expenses they paid every year, but there are so many soldiers in Dazhou that they can't even defend the country.

It was only then that Wei Yan realized that here, the soldiers at the border were the targets of resentment and disgust, except Yuan Jiajun.

If it hadn't been for Chen Guanshi to stop him, Wei Yan would have fought with others. He felt that they were too wronged. Their food, grass and military pay have been collected from the local people for so many years, and they asked the court for money and food. Bring some horses and weapons, and it often takes about half a year of verbal battles to get these things.

It would be considered good if one-thousandth of the military expenditure handed over by Lin'an Mansion and the Jiangnan area went to them.

Wei Yan opened his eyes wide and asked Chen Guanshi to give him a return date. Chen Guanshi squatted directly on the steps, scratched his head and said, "I don't know when I will go back. The young master asked us to sell the things and exchange 80% of the silver. I just want to take 20% of the silver back with me. After a month of delay, I want to take advantage of the harvest in the south of the Yangtze River and buy more when the price of food will drop? Damn it, the price of food has not only not dropped, but has risen Now, how do I make a move? Why don’t you kill me when you go back?”

Wei Yan pretended: "This business is your job, I don't care, anyway, I have to go back, it's not an option for us to stay here all the time, why don't we go back if the food price doesn't drop? Before I come out, Jin Bing I'm staring at our Xingzhou Mansion, I have to go back and help the little general."

"Come on, there is no shortage of people like you around the little general." Chen Guanshi rubbed his face and said, "Since the grain shop is not accessible, let's go to the countryside to have a look, don't be idle, and send someone out to inquire Ask about the price of grain in the countryside, if it’s not high, we’ll get it directly from the farmers, and we’ll set off as soon as we get the grain.”

"You said it earlier, how did you come up with such a good idea?"

Chen Guanshi snorted and said, "You think it's easy? You'll know how hard it is when you go out and do it." Chen Guanshi patted his ass and left.

How many households of ordinary people can afford food to sell after paying taxes? Most of them can only be kept in the house and eaten until next year. Only rich households and small landlords have surplus grain for sale, and these people often cooperate with various grain shops.

They only do one business and leave. Even if the price they give is better, those people will not offend the grain merchants they have cooperated with for a long time just for one business. There are all rules here.

Chen Guanshi took the risk of violating the rules to do such a thing just because he was lucky. He only hoped to meet a few rich and small landlords who were in urgent need of money or were too stupid to care about the rules.

And they, people and foundations are all in Xingzhou Prefecture, even if those grain merchants are angry, they can't catch them.

But Chen Guanshi didn't dare to have too much hope. He went back to the house and found the letter Fan Zijin handed to him before he left. It was a letter to Mrs. Fan. Chen Guanshi didn't want to show it, but what Wei Yan said was true Yes, they can't stay in Lin'an mansion forever, they don't know what's going on in Xingzhou mansion, they have to go back quickly.

When he came, Mr. Fan didn't ask him to go to Fan's residence to pay his respects, and he even said not to go to Mrs. Fan unless it was absolutely necessary. It can be seen that the relationship between Mr. Fan and his mother is not very good. It is also because of this consideration that Chen Guanshi never asked the Fan family to know. They belong to the little general and Mr. Fan.

Their diced rabbit meat and cured rabbit meat were sold smoothly, and the profit was indeed astonishing, but what the young master told him was only half completed.

What are they working so hard to earn money for?

Isn't it just to buy food?

He had to bring the food back to complete the task.

Chen Guanshi prepared a few small gifts, took the letter and a guard, and went to Fan's house to deliver the post. Not long after the post entered, Chen Guanshi was respectfully taken to the flower hall.

Mrs. Fan looked at the letter, pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and asked with reddish eyes: "When did you come to Lin'an Mansion?"

Chen Guanshi lowered his head and said shyly: "I came here a few months ago, but I haven't been able to complete what my son told me, and I am ashamed to see my wife, so it has been delayed until today."

Mrs. Fan touched the letter, looked at Chen Guanshi for a while, her heart sank, she forced a smile and said: "You really have intentions, tell me, what makes you so embarrassed?"

His son knew it himself, most likely because he didn't want her to know about him.

Mrs. Fan didn't expect her son and herself to be born this way.
