Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy

Tao Song and Tao Lin brothers breathed hard for an instant, looked at Xiao Jie with disbelief, and there was light in their eyes.If there is any obsession among the generations of the Tao family, it is that they want to get back the title of Marquis of Guannei and restore the glory of their ancestors.

If the relevant Neihou's title is there, their Tao family can be regarded as the nobles of Daning, so they don't have to be like now, keeping their tails between their tails, no one dares to offend, and no one can afford to offend.

But it is not easy to restore the title of the Marquis of Guannei. They have tried many methods and walked through many paths. The pressure from the ministers of the DPRK and China simply cannot fulfill the previous promises.

In the past few decades, the Tao family has put in too much effort to restore the title, but in the end it was nothing but nothing. However, the Tao family has never given up their efforts, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, they will try.

Now that Xiao Jie actually took the initiative to ask them if they wanted to restore their titles, their first reaction was naturally that they were too excited to breathe.

"If His Highness can help our Tao family restore the title, it will be a rebirth of kindness to my Tao family, and my Tao family will definitely form a grassroots ring to repay it."

Tao Song's face and eyes were full of undisguised longing and excitement.

Xiao Jie smiled lightly, this is what he was waiting for.

"If the Tao family wants to restore their titles, in my opinion, it's actually not difficult at all." Tao Song and Tao Lin's eyes widened suddenly. No matter how much effort and price the three generations of the Tao family had put in to restore their titles, they hadn't succeeded. Xiao Jie said it so lightly.

"Please give me your advice, Your Highness." Tao Song got up excitedly, and bowed respectfully to Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie smiled faintly: "From today onwards, your Tao family will purchase a large amount of grain in Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou, as much as you buy, but don't sell a single grain. I guarantee that within a month, your Tao family will be able to get what you owe. willing."

Tao Song and Tao Lin looked at each other, and they both saw a big question mark in each other's eyes.

After all, Xiao Jie's words were somewhat unbelievable.

Buying a large amount of grain in Jingzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhou can restore the title, which doesn't sound very reliable.

They even suspected that Xiao Jie was playing tricks on them, or even retaliating against them. After all, buying a large amount of grain on the market would easily cause the price of grain to skyrocket. If it was serious, it might even trigger riots in three states. let go of the blame.

Xiao Jie didn't explain too much, but reminded them again and again that they must be careful when purchasing grain, so as not to cause fluctuations in grain prices, otherwise the gods will not be able to save them when they are questioned.

Tao Song and Tao Lin were even more puzzled when they heard that Xiao Jie reminded them to control the price of grain. It was obviously not playing tricks or taking revenge on them.

That's all Xiao Jie said, anyway, the opportunity has already been told to them, it depends on whether their Tao family can grasp the opportunity.

They exchanged a few more words with Xiao Jie, and seeing that it was getting late, they took Tao Han to leave.

……

"Are you sure that he really wants us to buy Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou a large amount of grain and hoard it, and he can help our Tao family restore the title of Marquis of Guannei within a month?"

Rao is so old and calm as Tao Lu, and he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard what the two sons said. After all, the news is too unbelievable.

Tao Song nodded solemnly: "That's right, father, he also specifically reminded us not to cause food price fluctuations."

Tao Lu bowed his head and muttered in silence, looking thoughtful.

"Father, I feel that His Royal Highness King Qi has malicious intentions and intends to make our Tao family get into big trouble."

The youngest son Tao Bo on the side couldn't hold back anymore. He was in charge of the grain and oil business in the Tao family. In his opinion, hoarding grain had low returns and high risks. If he was not careful, the Tao family would face disaster.

"Brother Bai, I think you are overthinking. Although I don't have much contact with His Highness King Qi, I also feel that he is definitely not a sinister person, and he will not set up any conspiracy to frame us."

"Third brother, as the saying goes, people's hearts are separated from the belly, and you know the face but not the heart. You don't care about the food. You don't know the risk of hoarding food. Once there is a disaster year, the price of food will skyrocket, and people's grievances will boil. Once the victims riot, they will We started looting grain shops and granaries. Not only will we lose a large amount of grain for no reason, but what is more serious is that we may be labeled as hoarding grain by the government to drive up grain prices. At that time, what our Tao family will face is Annihilation."

Tao Bo's words made Tao Song and Tao Lin break out in cold sweat instantly, and their desire to buy grain also faded a lot.

But Tao Bo's words made Tao Lu think through his joints in an instant.

He had been wondering why Xiao Jie had vowed to tell them that as long as they bought and hoarded a large amount of grain in Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou, they could restore the title of Marquis of Guannei.

You must know that the decision to confer a title on a businessman is not something that can be decided by the emperor alone. He needs to face the pressure of the civil and military forces of the court. Unless the businessman has made great achievements for the court and can completely shut the mouths of those ministers, otherwise everything is out of the question rise.

In the decades since the founding of Daning, only two businessmen have been awarded titles. One is Tao Gong, the ancestor of the Tao family, and the other is Zhang Ping, a Malaysian businessman from Liangzhou. Tens of thousands of good horses enabled Daning to form an elite cavalry force, and finally he was able to defeat the Hu people. After the war, he was rewarded for his meritorious deeds. Ning Taizong Xiao Xuan directly named him a lieutenant of [-] households in Shiyi.

Tao Lu vaguely thought that some major event would happen in Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou within a month, and a large amount of food was urgently needed. At that time, if the Tao family could donate a large amount of food to the court for free, it would be regarded as a contribution to the court. After making untold feats, restoring the title is a matter of course.

Thinking of this, Tao Lu no longer hesitated. He asked Tao Bo to go to the three states in the south of the Yangtze River to be responsible for purchasing and hoarding grain.

Although Tao Bo was puzzled, but his father's order must not be violated, he finally complied with his promise and left the capital the next day.

Tao Lu also secretly made up his mind that if the Tao family can successfully restore the title of Marquis of Guannei this time, their Tao family must completely fall to King Qi.

Tao Lu even thought that His Royal Highness King Qi seemed to like the girl from the boss Tao Song's family a little bit, so it would be nice to ask her to be the side concubine of King Qi for Xiao Jie, and it would not be considered an insult to the Tao family's reputation.
