Rebirth of Okuki Kofuro

Chapter 194 Raising the Price "Competition"

Seeing this, Father Liang finally felt relieved, and began to take people outside to check the autumn harvest in the nearby villages to prepare for the next grain harvest. He went out early and returned late every day, and Liang Kangsheng would accompany him from time to time when he was free.

Qu Yi was a little curious about Zhuang Shi's change, but he didn't ask, fearing that mentioning Zhuang Shi's unhappy things would make her feel uncomfortable again.

It must have been held back for a long time, or it may be that Zhuang Shi saw Qu Yi's curiosity, and then she took the initiative to tell what she thought - because she knew that Liang's father was going out to work, and the autumn harvest meant that the Liang family would start A new round of busyness.

What happened to her younger brother made Zhuang feel very sorry for the Liang family, but she couldn't bear to let her really do anything to her younger brother. She was worried that she would be sorry for her parents' entrustment, so she simply pretended to be confused and did nothing. It's just that she can't get over the test in her heart, so she can't eat and sleep.

Now Father Liang is busy with business, if she delays because of worrying about her, then she will be the real sinner of the Liang family, how will she face her father-in-law who passed away long ago, so she cheered up.

Zhuang said his thoughts one by one, and Qu Yi could understand one or two, but he was very unworthy of her.

Zhuang Qingze has done such an excessive thing to the Liang family, it can be seen that in Zhuang Qingze's heart, the Liang family is not a relative at all, the Zhuang family cares about and worries about him, but Zhuang Qingze not only does not appreciate what the Zhuang family has done, but uses and hates it.

Of course, what Quyi thought in his heart would not tell Zhuang Shi, he felt that Zhuang Shi didn't mean to discuss with himself, but just wanted to find someone to talk about the things that were weighing on her heart, so that she might feel more relaxed.

After finishing what was hidden in her heart, the wrinkles between Zhuang's eyebrows relaxed a little, and she smiled self-deprecatingly: "Brother Yi, isn't mother very useless? As a sister, as a wife, as a mother, I don't have any Do what I should do, and I really shouldn't have troubled you during this period of time."

She didn't have the face to talk to Liang's father about these words, and she was embarrassed to confide in her son. The reason for choosing Erfulang was also simple. Erfulang also had a younger brother from her natal family. She felt that maybe Yigeer could understand her feelings better.

In Quyi's heart, he certainly hoped that Zhuang's attitude towards Zhuang Qingze would be more decisive, and he would continue to suffer from it, but people's hearts are complicated, and she is a soft-hearted person, so why should she break off her sibling relationship with Zhuang Qingze? possible.

To put it bluntly, if Zhuang Shi is not a kind-hearted person, the fact that Qu Yi hanged himself before getting married in his previous life is enough to make Zhuang Shi cruelly torture him. After all, Zhuang Shi let Qu Yi enter the house for joy. As a result, the Zhuang family didn't, but Qu Yi was cold at first.

So from Qu Yi's point of view, Zhuang's soft heart and kindness are not a shortcoming. No man is perfect. It's just that this characteristic of hers has been exploited by people with evil intentions. Since she can't harden her heart, they will Help her more, the family doesn't have to worry so much.

Zhuang Shi did see understanding from Quyi's feedback to her, and she seemed to feel tolerance, as if facing a friend or elder of the same age, she shook her head to drive out these strange years.

After chatting with Qu Yi, Zhuang's mood improved, it was really from the bottom of his heart, not to let Father Liang go out to do things with peace of mind, to force himself to look better.

When the Zhuang family was entangled with his younger brother, Zhuang Qingze didn't miss his sister at all. He took Master Guan's scolding words as Father Liang's scolding him, and hated the Liang family even more.

After learning that the apprentice had taken the koji from the Liang family, he could make wine even without the master master, and that he could make new koji based on this koji in the future, Zhuang Qingze finally had a good look at the little apprentice.

Don't worry about the most important issue of wine making in the winery, Zhuang Qingze started to get busy. He originally planned to sell Chen Cloth again in the summer, but the Zhuang people cut off this source of income. He can only wait for next year. This year he will concentrate on making his own wine shop.

Such a big distillery is definitely too busy for a single apprentice, so Zhuang Qingze must find someone else. He is worried that all of them will find honest people who can't do the job well, and he is also worried that those who are too clever will learn the crafts of the distillery and use them here and there. It took a lot of time to find twelve or three satisfied ones, and signed the contract to let them into the winery.

After the autumn harvest was over, Zhuang Qingze's distillery took on some form. At the same time, Liang Kangsheng accompanied Liang's father to the surrounding villages to collect glutinous rice like last year.

Over the years, everyone has been used to this. They don't need to say hello in advance, and they dry the glutinous rice that is carefully prepared every year, and select the best part to sell to the Liang family.

But this year there was an accident. In addition to the Liang family's collection of glutinous rice, Zhuang Qingze also received glutinous rice, and he was very rich and wealthy, 29 cents a catty more than the Liang family.

In the past, Zhuang Qingze often went to the Liang family, and the village chiefs of the surrounding villages knew about Zhuang Qingze's relationship with the Liang family, so when Zhuang Qingze first collected grain, the village chiefs thought he was helping the Liang family. I don't owe everyone money, don't want that extra penny.

Zhuang Qingze has now begun to make it clear that he is against the Liang family. He directly stated that he collects the glutinous rice himself, and has no relationship with the Liang family.

Although his words did not express obvious resentment towards the Liang family, just listening to him say that collecting grain has nothing to do with the Liang family can make some people guess that his purpose of collecting glutinous rice is unusual, which makes many people hesitate up.

Of course, not everyone hesitated. Some people simply sold the glutinous rice to Zhuang Qingze, took the money from Zhuang Qingze, and said nonchalantly: "We can sell the grain we grow to whoever we want. Master Zhuang is better than Master Liang." Why can't you sell it to him if you give me an extra penny?"

Immediately, someone retorted: "Master Liang is fair to collect our grain at any time. Although he did not sign a contract with us explicitly, we must have a promise in our hearts. If Master Liang does not want my glutinous rice, I will sell it again. to someone else."

"Okay, okay, you guys are high-spirited, don't take hundreds of dollars in your eyes, my family cares, okay! There is a hole in your head, push out all the silver delivered to your door."

After arguing, some people chose to sell the glutinous rice to Zhuang Qingze. They were selling it anyway, and it would be better to sell more. Of course, if Master Liang was willing to add an extra penny, they would still be willing to continue selling it to the Liang family.

However, about one-third of the people were unwilling to do that. They carried their glutinous rice back and were unwilling to sell it to Zhuang Qingze. They remembered the good of the Liang family in their hearts.

If it weren't for the Liang family's fairness in collecting grain, they would only sell the glutinous rice to grain merchants for more than [-] yuan. Over the years, the Liang family has never deceived people in collecting grain. If they sell the glutinous rice to Master Zhuang for a penny now , then they would become that ungrateful, wolf-hearted thing.

Liang Kangsheng and Liang's father first collected grain from near Liang's house, and it was the next day when they heard the news that Zhuang Qingze had cut off the barbarian. It was those who sold the grain to Zhuang Qingze who took the initiative to tell it to show off, and everyone knew about it.

Father Liang's face darkened immediately when he heard about it, but it didn't change much. He thought of this possibility after he knew that Zhuang Qingze had built a winery. After all, he would definitely buy glutinous rice when making wine, but he didn't expect that Zhuang Qingze would cost more than a catty. For one penny, one catty alone does not seem to be much, but tens of thousands of catties is not much.

How much dissatisfaction do you have with the Liang family, and you actually want to use this method to add trouble to the Liang family.

I heard that there are still many "fools" who did not agree to sell the glutinous rice to Zhuang Qingze at a high price. Father Liang was a little moved. It was more expensive than the grain merchants, but what the Liang family wanted was high-quality glutinous rice, so it should have been more expensive.

The feeling of being spoiled by Zhuang Qingze was because the simple folks were willing to choose to believe that the Liang family was getting better again. Father Liang thought about it, called the village head of the village that had already collected the grain before, and told them the truth about Zhuang Qingze's little move.

It's about money, what Liang's father thinks is that if someone in the villages where he collected grain wants to sell their glutinous rice at a high price, then he will return the grain, and the villagers will refund the money to the Liang family. The glutinous rice has not been sorted and put into storage, so we can find each person's share according to the situation of each village, otherwise, when the glutinous rice is taken out and mixed, there is no way to return it.

The village chiefs immediately waved their hands. They had already led the villagers to sell the glutinous rice to the Liang family. How could there be any reason to ask the Liang family to return the grain for an extra penny? thing.

Father Liang insisted that he didn't want to hear people complaining that the Liang family didn't pay a penny in the future. Since the Liang family was going to do business, both parties would rather be better off.

The village chiefs insisted on not revealing the news Father Liang said, but there is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world, and soon some villagers heard about it and started arguing with the village chief.

Regardless of the fact that a catty is only one penny more, a few hundred catties is worth a few hundred pennies, country people can only earn money by working hard, and five hundred cash requires a strong man to go out and sell his strength for ten days to earn it back. How can we not want this money!

Some people even said that in order to please the Liang family, the village chief almost disregarded the life and death of the villagers, and almost made the village chiefs of several villages mad, saying that they don't care, they can do whatever they like, and don't worry about anything in the future. find them.

Since Father Liang had said that, he would not break his promise. The villagers approached the Liang family privately to ask for food back without going through the village chief, and he agreed. Father Liang was so straightforward that many people who were wavering also started to act. In the end, the grain that Liang's warehouse had received was reduced by half.

When Zhuang Qingze heard about these things, he became even more proud. He rushed to buy the glutinous rice from those people, and when he gave the money, he was even more fanciful, so he almost had to find someone to beat the gongs and drums.

The Liang family's grain collection was not influenced by Zhuang Qingze at all. It was only because of Zhuang Qingze's intervention that the glutinous rice in the surrounding villages was harvested in half the time compared to previous years. Correspondingly, the warehouse that should be full of glutinous rice was only filled Less than half, it looked empty.
