Start as Slave, The Eldest Lady Fell In Love With Me At First Sight

0439: Let Them Rot In Your Hands.

"Puchi......"

Qiao Ji stood by the window watching the eagle fly away, then turned around and asked, "Lian Xin, have you finished investigating the families in our territory?"

Lian Xin carefully closed the storybook, got up and reported, "The investigation is finished, and I will report to you after the master is done."

"Let's talk." Qiao Ji sat back on the main seat.

"Aymo, the younger brother of the former consul, controls the salt and cloth business in Hailan City and several surrounding cities. He is one of the richest families in Beigang."

Lian Xin brushed the hair around her ears, and continued, "The clerk is in the spice business..."

"Which families are raising prices?" Qiao Ji said, taking a sip of hot water.

"My lord, in the family mentioned just now, the former consul, the city defense officer, and the clerk all participated in the price increase of grain."

Lian Xin paused for a moment, then continued, "The former governor of Shanghu City and Wanyun City...these families also participated in the price increase..."

Fox Erniang told the background information of many families - this is the investigation result of the trio of Cai Wen, Udyr and Vega.

It was only known that the families of these people were doing business in Beigang before, but more specific information was lost.

"Sure enough."

Qiao Ji's face gradually turned cold, he got up and said, "Lian Xin, Lei Nai, let's go."

"Master, where are we going?" Lian Xin asked curiously.

"Go to the supply and marketing store and see everyone's feedback on the supply and marketing store." Qiao Ji said flatly.

The supply and marketing store is in the charge of the district management department, and it opened this morning.

The address was chosen in the Baita District, which has the most civilians, just two streets away from the district management department.

"Okay." Lian Xin and Lei Nai responded immediately.

"Tap Tat Tat..."

Qiao Ji, Lei Nai and others, under the guard of the Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion, left the castle and went to the supply and marketing store in the Baita District.

Half an hour later, Shi Duo drove the carriage and stopped one street away from the supply and marketing store.

They cannot appear in front of the public for the time being, because after the public trial, Huanji has gained a lot of prestige.

If he appeared in front of everyone all of a sudden, a bunch of people would gather around to thank him again.

Of course, the supply and marketing store has only just opened in the morning, and everyone's feedback on the supply and marketing store is still unclear.

At this moment, the supply and marketing store is full of people, at least a few hundred people are waiting in line to buy.

The supply and marketing store was remodeled from the same two-story stone brick building, and both floors were used to sell grain.

Qiao Ji stepped out of the carriage, looked at the crowded supply and marketing store, and said softly, "It seems that the supply and marketing store is quite popular for the time being."

"My lord, we sell it cheap after all." Lian Xin shook her furry fox ears.

Lei Nai has been looking at the supply and marketing store in the distance with his toes on his toes, and sighed, "Everyone comes to our place to buy food, those families will die of anger, right?"

Qiao Ji smiled faintly, turned her head and said, "Let's go in through the back door to see the sales situation in the morning.

117 Lian Xin, Lei Nai nodded in response.

Da da da

ah ah

Under the guard of the Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion, Qiao Ji turned across the street to the back door of the supply and marketing store.

Everyone entered the back door and went directly to the financial room, avoiding the crowded passenger flow in the store.

When the person in charge of the supply and marketing store saw Qiao Ji and the others coming in, he immediately got up and saluted, "Master Marquis."

Qiao Ji waved his hand and asked in a low voice, "How is everyone's feedback on the supply and marketing store today?"

"Everyone is very grateful to Lord Marquis. The food in the store has been restocked within less than half an hour of opening. The person in charge of the supply and marketing store said excitedly.

The space in the supply and marketing store is limited, and it is certainly impossible to accumulate a large amount of grain, and it needs to be continuously replenished from the warehouses in the outer city.

That's right, Qiao Ji had the grain purchased from Marquis Powell temporarily stored in a warehouse outside the city.

The stone pagoda in Huyun District is being cleaned and repaired, and it is very humid inside, and the food cannot be stored there.

"That's good, is there anyone making trouble?" Qiao Ji nodded in satisfaction.

"Back to Mr. Marquis, a lot of people came to make trouble an hour ago, saying that the supply and marketing store we opened had set prices indiscriminately, but they were all arrested by the patrol team."

The person in charge of the supply and marketing store said with a slight smile.

Qiao Ji raised her thick eyebrows and asked, "How many people want to buy food in large quantities?"

"A lot, a bunch of people come to buy it every now and then, and it costs several hundred catties." The person in charge of the supply and marketing store reported truthfully.

0...seeking flowers...

"Oh?" Qiao Ji smiled playfully.

He had guessed a long time ago that the people of those families would definitely not sit still when they heard of the existence of the supply and marketing store.

They will definitely come to the supply and marketing store to buy a large amount of low-priced food. Those people feel that there is not much food brought by returning the house.

The several families of them joined forces to empty out Qiao Ji's inventory at one time, and then sold it at a high price, making another huge profit.

"Lord Marquis, don't worry, the supply and marketing store did not sell grain to those people."

The person in charge of the supply and marketing store was also very aware of this, and directly asked people to drive out those who wanted to stock up.

"From tomorrow onwards, if anyone wants to buy grain in large quantities, sell it to them." Qiao Ji raised his mouth slightly.

"Lord Marquis, what is this?" The person in charge of supply and marketing looked puzzled.

"Just do as I say." Qiao Ji waved his hand.

"Yes." The person in charge of the supply and marketing store responded immediately.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

Qiao Ji asked a few more questions, checked the sales amount, and returned to the carriage.

Inside the carriage.

Lian Xin looked at Qiao Ji puzzled, and asked, "My lord, why did you sell them the grain?"

"It's bait for them."

With cold eyes in Qiao Ji's eyes, he ordered, "Lian Xin, immediately ask someone to buy fifty million catties of grain from Marquis Powell, and I will let these people's grain rot in their hands."

"My lord, I don't understand." Lian Xin looked helpless.

"For the time being, it seems that we are at a loss, but when the limelight of food is over, who do you think will suffer?" Qiao Ji said with a smile.

He can't suppress the grain merchants openly, which will make other merchants feel that he is too domineering.

It even scares some businessmen from coming to Hailan City to do business, and the loss outweighs the gain.

Lian Xin thought for a while before she suddenly realized, and said with a flick of the fox's tail, "Does the lord want to lure them into a trap? Run on them."

"That's right, after the limelight passes, we'll find some excuses to close down their grain store, and then take back the pricing and sales rights." Qiao Ji said with a slight blink of his eyes.

"My lord is wise." Lian Xin said happily.
