Su Yu shook her head annoyedly, "Brother, hey, it's all my fault. I didn't remind you earlier. I went to the county today and found that something was wrong. This is a trick of the merchants. The price of food will definitely rise in a few days Yes, tomorrow I want my elder brother to help me collect grain in a nearby village, and I will do some business."

Su Yuan was shocked, "Third brother, tell the truth, you are going to collect grain? Your family has not sold, and you still have to collect. The grain will really increase, so don't lose it all. The third aunt and you rely on Can you think clearly about those who live on this grain?"

Su Yu thought about it seriously, "Brother, I've made it clear. I don't know how to farm or something. Although I have the name of a scholar, it is difficult to pass the imperial examination. It is better to do business. However, this The food in the nearby villages has been taken away by merchants, and I just don’t know if I can still receive it.”

At this moment, Chen Cui looked at Su Yu with concern, "Third brother, have you really thought it through?" Su Yu nodded.

Seeing that Su Yu was so determined, Su Yuan didn't say anything, and said, "Third brother, don't panic. Tomorrow, the eldest brother will bring the bullock cart and help you visit a few more villages. I will definitely help you receive the food."

Su Yu said happily: "Okay, then thank you big brother first, then I will go home first."

In the early morning of the next day, Su Yu took Su Yuan, Pang Hai and his friends from several other villages to the nearby villages to collect grain.Sure enough, most of the grain in the nearby villages had been taken away. In the end, Su Yu insisted on raising the price from 850 wen per shi to 20 wen. Only then did he receive more than [-] shi of grain.

The price of 850 million shi shocked Su Yuan and a few helpers. They were so annoyed that they would have sold the grain to Su Yu if they knew about it.This incident quickly spread in these villages. Su Yu collected grain at 850 ren a shi. Almost everyone scolded Su Yu as a prodigal son. Look at Su Yu's jokes.

It wasn't until evening that Su Yu and Su Yuan came back with a few ox carts to help Su Yu unload the grain and put it in place. Su Yu said, "Thank you all for today. After three days, everyone will follow me to the county to sell grain. We shipped it directly to the wharf, the food was sold, and each person received a hard-earned [-] Wen." Everyone was very happy when they heard that it was [-] Wen, so they all went back and waited for three days to come and ship. food.

Pang Hai and Su Yuan stayed, and Su Yuan said: "Third brother, why are you so generous? It's just a small favor, you give a hundred coins, brother, you must not give it, brother help, how can you use money?" What do you think?"

Pang Hai also said: "Brother Yu, you have spent so much money, what does it matter to you, I have strength, what do you ask me to do, Brother Yu, why are you talking about money with me?" .”

Su Yu looked at Su Yuan and Pang Haier, "Brother, Pang Hai, thank you very much for today, by the way, Pang Hai, remember to bring your food over in three days, let's sell it together, we will never losing profit."

After taking Pang Hai and Su Yuan back, Su's mother looked at Su Yu worriedly, "Yu'er, what are you doing? 850 Wen collects food, isn't this still a loss?"

"Hey, you prodigal, why don't you learn it well? What's wrong with being a banker? You want to study business. It's such a lowly industry." It was Grandpa who spoke, followed by the second brother and the second brother. Bob, both were laughing.

Su Yu saw them, and said blankly: "So it's Grandpa, Second Uncle and Second Brother are here, business is also relying on their own ability to make money, they haven't sold yet, how can they lose money?"

The second elder brother Su Xian smiled and said: "Third brother, next time there is such a good thing, remember to tell the second brother in advance, the second brother will definitely leave all the food to you, anyway, outsiders have earned your money, and let your own money." People make some money, don’t they?” Hahahaha, he laughed after finishing speaking.

Grandpa said to Su's mother: "You mother, why did you let your son behave like this? The third son's few acres of land seem to be ruined by him. He is already eighteen, and he doesn't want a wife." , all these are useless."

Su's mother was scolded by her father-in-law, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only whisper; "Elder-in-law, here, Yu'er said he likes this, and besides, he said it can make money, I am not good..."

Grandpa said angrily: "Forget it, if you really lose all the land in the future, let's see who will help you. Why don't you distribute the land to your second brother's son now, so that the Su family's land will not fall into the hands of outsiders."

Hearing this, Su Yu looked angry, and was about to refute, but was pulled by Su Mu's arm, looked at Su Yu and shook his head, Su Yu suppressed his anger, and stared at these people, they really came to seize the land.

Suddenly, the room fell silent, and the few people who came didn't say anything, and then left resentfully.When only Su Mu and Su Yu were left in the house, Su Mu knew that Su Yu was angry, and persuaded her, "Yu'er, our family is with you and me. Now you are a man and you have not married a wife. We are not good with you." They are fighting, if they really take the field away, we will really have no way to live."

Su Yu was angry at first, but when he heard this, he became furious and didn't like those people anymore, so he said, "Mother, don't be afraid, I will make money in the future, and I will marry ten or eight daughters-in-law with you. Live a good life, don't live here anymore, it's better if you don't see it.

Mother Su was amused at this time, "Ten or eight, as long as you can marry one, but you are a woman, how can you marry? After you get married, people will not make trouble after knowing the truth, hey, If it wasn't for your life, I really want you to be a woman again, to marry and have children, how wonderful, oh, God's will," After finishing speaking, her face became heavy.

Su Yu said, "Mother, who do you marry? What do you mean you can't marry? It's fine if you can't be a woman. It's very convenient outside. We will move to the city to live in the future. Don't worry, if you can marry, don't worry about it." It's getting late, let's rest."

Three days later, Su Yu took Pang Hai, Su Yuan, and some helpers and drove ten ox carts or donkey carts all the way to the pier in the county. There are 44 shi of Shangsu Yu, a total of [-] shi of grain.

When they arrived at the pier, there were indeed a few merchants who were interested in the ten carts of grain. Su Yu just asked about the price at first, but they were only willing to pay up to [-] Wen, but Su Yu was not satisfied.Su Yuan and Pang Hai next to him, Uncle Tian, ​​were very anxious. Now that they finally believed in Su Yu, Su Yuan was even more annoyed. Now that Su Yu didn't want to sell the nine hundred articles, he still rushed to sell the eight hundred articles. Hey, I really want to listen to my third brother in the future.

At this time, another businessman with a goatee and a grade of about forty came over and asked Su Yu, "Brother, why are you still refusing to sell nine hundred coins? This is already the highest." He stared at the ten cars food.

Su Yu looked at this man's shrewd face, and said, "Shopkeeper, let me tell you the truth. Before you lowered the price of grain, I believe most of the shops have already collected a lot. Hehe, now the village There is basically no surplus food. Now the pier is estimated to be small and medium-sized, which is not enough. I have [-] shi of grain here, and I have worked hard to collect it. It's a stone, why do you want me to lose money?"

The businessman's eyes darkened, and he looked at the food again. He really wanted it, so he said, "Little brother, 950 Wen, it's good, it really can't be more, you have to let me earn some."

Su Yu smiled, "Shopkeeper, we celebrities don't talk dark words, you collect this grain and sell it according to your method, I think it is at least 1000 to [-] two hundred pennies a stone, in fact, I also I don't think I'll make much money, one thousand coins per stone is enough. If the shopkeeper doesn't want to accept it, it will definitely not be cheaper than this if he goes to the store in the county to collect it. Besides, you think it's better to have the ready-made grain from me in the store. But it's a lot of money, you understand, you should understand. Besides, if you missed my ten carts of grain, you probably won't be able to receive so much. What should you do? Think about it, I'm not in a hurry .” After speaking, Su Yu looked at the businessman with a smile.

The businessman just sighed in his heart, this time he met a ruthless character, so all his ideas were right, his face was cloudy and unpredictable, if he really couldn't receive any more food, it would definitely affect his daily supply .After thinking for a long time, I finally compromised, and smiled, "Hey, little brother, you are a smart person, that's all, young people are awesome, so let's pay a thousand pennies for a stone."

In this way, Su Yu took the 50 taels of silver from the merchant, and then the merchant asked people to load the grain onto the boat. After boarding the boat, the merchant looked at Su Yu on the pier.

Seeing that Su Yu sold the grain at a price of one thousand wen per shi, everyone admired Su Yu. Everyone heard what he said just now, and they were really annoyed.

Su Yu then took out some copper coins, gave each of the helpers one hundred renminbi, and told them to drive back first. Those helpers were very grateful, and said that in the future, they must be asked to help, and the money does not need to be given. , just take them to sell food.Su Yu smiled and walked in front of Uncle Tian and his son, both of them looked at Su Yu with a smile on their face, brows were beaming with joy, fortunately they listened to Su Yu's words.Su Yu first took out six taels and handed it to Uncle Tian, ​​"Uncle Tian, ​​this is six shi of your family's money." Uncle Tian took it happily and praised Su Yu for being smart.

Su Yu took out another half of the money and handed it to Pang Hai, saying: "Pang Hai, you have worked hard these few days, come on, Brother Yu gave it to you, come and continue." But Pang Hai refused to accept it, but Uncle Tian said: " Ah Yu, Ah Hai is doing you a small favor, why are you so out of touch? Besides, the high price of our grain is all thanks to you. Ah Hai absolutely cannot accept this money. By the way , In the evening, I will go back and let your aunt quarrel over some good dishes, and today you and A Yuan will come over for dinner, let’s have a few drinks and celebrate, haha.”

Su Yu said: "Since this is the case, you have to accept the half of the money. Ah Hai helped me collect and transport the grain these days. You don’t charge for the food, my brother and I are too embarrassed to go, just watch.”

Uncle Tian smiled helplessly, "Oh, Yuwazi, you, just leave it to Tian Hai, I'll go back now, you and Ah Hai have a stroll in this county," he drove the car after speaking gone.

Su Yu walked up to Su Yuan at this time, and said with a smile: "Brother, how are you? You're not losing money, come on, take it," and handed Su Yuan a tael of silver.

Su Yuan was shocked, and said, "Third brother, what are you doing, you and I are brothers, and the elder brother can still collect money for helping the younger brother. This is absolutely unacceptable."

Su Yu stuffed it into Su Yuandao's hand and said: "Brother, I have always felt guilty for not reminding you before. This is a small compensation. Besides, do you want to buy something for Xiu'er? By the way, brother, do you want to go shopping together?" Let’s go shopping, I also want to buy something with my mother.”

But Su Yuan said: "No, your sister-in-law is still waiting for me to go back, just go shopping with Ah Hai, don't be too late, so that the third aunt won't worry, I will report to the third aunt first when I go back."

But Pang Hai said: "Brother Yuan, remember to go to my house for a drink tonight, we have to celebrate."

Su Yuan smiled and said: "Okay, you boy, see if I drink you up," and then the three of them burst out laughing.
