Datang: Showdown, your father and I are Li Shimin

Chapter 55 Salt price plummets, Xiuping strategy

The news of a new salt shop in Chang'an City quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys, and also reached Pei Ji's residence at the same time.

As soon as Pei Quan heard the news, he scrambled into Pei Ji's study. After hearing this, Pei Ji turned the desk case upside down on the spot.

Liu Xiuping was also taken aback by Pei Ji's actions, and quickly persuaded: "My lord, calm down, my lord, now that the emperor has suppressed the price of salt to such an extent, I'm afraid that the coarse salt hoarded in Prime Minister Pei's hands must be sold as soon as possible, otherwise... ..."

Before Liu Xiuping finished speaking, Pei Ji grabbed Liu Xiuping's collar suddenly: "Shoot? Fart!"

"I bought the salt for [-] Wen per bucket, so now I want to sell all of it for [-] Wen?"

"Wouldn't the old man want to pay out all his family fortune?"

Pei Ji stared at Liu Xiuping with blood-red eyes. He was so angry that his eyebrows seemed to stand up, and the hair on his head seemed to be about to explode.

"My lord, please calm down, my lord, please calm down, but if the salt doesn't come out, I'm afraid it will rot..." Liu Xiuping spoke halfway, and quickly swallowed it again.

Now that Pei Ji is angry, it is undoubtedly courting death to say so.

"Rotten! This old man would rather have this salt rotten in his hands than sell it at a price that is three times lower than the original price!" Pei Ji pushed angrily, and Liu Xiuping's thin figure immediately stepped back dozens of steps, and there was a "boom" Hit the bookshelf.

Liu Xiuping only dared to lower his head without saying a word.

Speaking at this time is tantamount to courting death.

Liu Xiuping is well aware of the art of speaking, not everyone can listen to the words when their emotions explode.

Especially people from a family like Pei Ji.

Liu Xiuping lowered his head secretly, standing by the bookshelf, organizing his words in his mind, thinking about how to persuade him tactfully later.

Pei Ji was so angry that his eyes were blood red, he was panting continuously, and his whole body was shaking crazily, as if he had an epileptic seizure.

The whole room was in chaos, and pieces of broken porcelain and other things on the ground were scattered all over the place.

Pei Quan also stood at the door in fear, not daring to take half a step forward.

If Pei Ji hit him with something in a fit of anger, it would be too much of an injustice.

Pei Ji panted resentfully, staring at the ledger that had fallen on the ground with rapt eyes. This was the ledger of expenses for the three hundred shi of coarse salt he had accumulated.

Seeing the numbers on the ledger, Pei Ji felt that the words were also laughing at himself.

At this time, he and his family had hoarded more than 3000 stones of coarse salt in various places in Chang'an, with an average of [-] cash per bucket, which also cost more than [-] taels of silver.

Although it won't hurt the root cause, no matter how big the family is, it can't stand such a toss!

Losing 10 taels in vain, who can bear it?

Pei Ji stomped on the account book and crushed it with his feet.

While rubbing, Pei Ji still gritted his teeth and scolded angrily: "When it's that Li Ze, you are just a dog slave of Li's second-hand servant, but you have repeatedly targeted this old man, you little bastard, this old man won't get rid of you for a day. Can't sleep for a day!"

"Cough! Cough! Cough! Little Li Ze! This old man will make you die!"

As he spoke, Pei Ji's voice became more and more hoarse, and then he coughed violently.

Pei Quan and Liu Xiuping looked at each other, and quickly stepped forward: "Pei Xiang, Pei Xiang calm down!"

The two hurriedly supported Pei Ji who almost fell to the ground, and gave the old fox a break.

"Pei Xiang, don't get angry, why don't you send someone to investigate the origin of the salt and find out how much salt Li Er still has in storage. If there is not much salt in storage, the price of salt will rise back sooner or later." Liu Xiuping Seeing that Pei Ji was suffocated, it seemed that there was no way to do anything to him.

Just stepped forward to offer advice.

Pei Ji gasped and gasped, nodded and said: "Yes! Yes! Pei Quan, go call my little bastard and find him something to do!"

"Hey! Follow orders!" Pei Quan hurriedly ran out of the study.

After leaving the study, Pei Quan just let out a long breath. The whole study made it difficult for him to breathe. The moment he left the room, he felt much more relaxed.

When Liu Xiuping heard Pei Ji describe his son Pei Xiu and Pei Congjian, his scalp tingled.

You say your son is a little beast, so are you an old beast?
Hiss... This guy is so ruthless that he even scolds himself, it's too scary!

"Pei Xiang, according to the villain's humble opinion, you can let the young master go to the salt shop to investigate the truth. If your majesty's salt is scarce, you can send someone to buy it back in batches. The market is empty and the price of salt will inevitably rise. If your majesty's salt There are so many, I'm afraid...Pei Xiang must hurry..." Liu Xiuping still didn't say anything to make him take action.

This matter can only be decided by Pei Ji himself.

If you try to persuade someone without permission, if the price of salt goes up again in the future, you might get angry again.

Pei Ji glared at Liu Xiuping, waved his hands and said, "You don't need to say, the old man has his own decision!"

Liu Xiuping quickly shrank his neck: "Yes, yes, yes! The villain is just a humble opinion, please think twice!"

Pei Ji was supported by Liu Xiuping and walked slowly towards the wall, leaning against the wall, panting heavily.

Not long after, his "little beast" son finally came to the study.

When Pei Ji smelled the smell of rouge and woman on Pei Xiu's body, he widened his eyes again angrily: "Bitch! Come here, old man!"

Although Pei Xiu was usually domineering and domineering, he was still terrified when he saw his father. He moved slowly and walked towards Pei Ji.

As soon as he walked in front of Pei Ji, Pei Ji stretched out his hand, causing Pei Xiu to tremble in fright.

However, Pei Ji was indeed holding a money bag.

It was the first time that Pei Xiu saw his father handing out money for him, and he looked at Pei Xiu with a puzzled expression: "Aye, what are you doing?"

"There is a royal salt shop in Chang'an City, do you know it!" Pei Ji looked at his son coldly, with anger still shining in his eyes.

Pei Xiu nodded: "When I came back, I saw a long queue on the road."

Pei Ji's eyes twitched suddenly.

There was a long queue. Could it be that Li Er really hoarded a lot of salt?

"Go, buy some, if you can, find out how much salt you have!" Pei Ji threw the money bag at Pei Xiu, and waved at Pei Quan: "You go with him, if he dares to run to the red building, he will help you!" I will break his dog leg!"

Pei Quan swallowed secretly, and immediately followed Pei Xiu to the door.

"I'm going to rest for a while. I'll trouble you to take care of the affairs of the house." Pei Ji waved his hands weakly, and walked out of the study with a stooped body.

In less than half an hour, Pei Xiu led a few servants and approached the salt shop with Pei Quan, without any intention of queuing up.

"Let me keep away! You farmer Han, dare to stand in my way?"

"roll roll roll!"

Several servants of Pei Xiu pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the entrance of Yansi.
