Chapter 63
Chapter 63
Si Yinyin clenched his fists tightly, bit his delicate lips, and tried his best to hold his breath. If it wasn't for the sake of the two being easy to provoke, he would have kicked them out.
The two of them came to their attic to eat and drink, and they also looked at their faces to eat.She is a dignified Princess of Chen Kingdom, but she is not a meal for others.
He turned his face to one side, not going to look at these two hateful people again.
Si Yinyin's eyes fell on the pile of things that Mo Shi had placed by the stairs in the attic just now, she nodded, and began to rub her fingers against the wood of the pear blossom table unconsciously, pondering over and over again in her heart.
"Are you hoarding supplies?" Si Yinyin asked intentionally or unintentionally.
Mo Shi paused for a while, then continued to eat pastries, not going to talk to the little girl, let her guess.
Si Yinyin didn't wait for a reply, so he put his hands back into his sleeves in embarrassment, and said with a calm face: "No, if you hoard supplies, why don't you stock up on food? There was a flood recently, and many places were submerged. Food is in short supply. If you hoard food and sell it, It might make a lot of money."
Yang Lin dismissed it, and gave Si Yinyin a blank look: "We don't earn money from such natural disasters, the common people are already suffering enough."
Si Yinyin choked again, she didn't say she wanted to make money from natural disasters, she pinched her fingers tightly, it seems that talking to these two people really needs some concentration, otherwise choking to death won't pay off.
"I see that you are not short of money for buying so many things. As for food, you probably don't have a shortage of food." Si Yinyin was choked heavily, and was about to fight back.
Yang Lin's eyelids twitched, and he wasn't ready to answer Si Yinyin's words. This girl looked weak and weak, and she had countless eyes in her heart. If she didn't pay attention, she would fall into her trap.
Mo Shi also nodded slightly, this girl is not simple, just from the things they bought, she guessed that there is no shortage of food, and now most of Chen Kingdom is suffering from floods, next year's harvest will definitely not be good.
Now all major businesses are looking at the right time, the purchase and sale of food are restricted, and they will close as soon as they are sold out every day.There are also some ordinary people who don't understand what's going on, and most of them have nothing to do with themselves, but Mo Shi sees it clearly.
Many merchants are planning to make a fortune from the national crisis. Now they are hoarding food and selling it at a high price when the victims have no food. Wouldn’t that make a lot of money, many times higher than the usual profit? .
And Mo Shi and the others bought everything except grain and salt. First Salt also suffered heavy losses in the flood. It is understandable that they could not buy it, but grain is different.
Food is the foundation of a family. Even if there is a disaster, each state and county has its own warehouses for hoarding. Yes, they don't dare to sell out and close.
Mo Shi thought for a while and understood the twists and turns inside. It seemed that this girl was indeed a decent person, she could figure it out at a glance, and she had a delicate mind.
Si Yinyin pursed her lips and smiled, as clear as a blooming daffodil, with a little girl's cheerfulness in her voice: "I guess right?"
Mo Shi and Yang Lin didn't speak, but Si Yinyin understood that she had a good idea in her heart, she slightly rolled her eyes at Luo Qiu who was standing by, and when her eyes were wet like autumn water, she immediately had a plan in her mind.
"Since the two of you are unwilling to work under my command, why not make a deal with the two of you."
Yang Lin was amazed, such a young girl knew how to do business, no wonder she was able to decorate the attic so resplendently, she turned out to be a businessman.
"What kind of business?" Mo Shi was still the same, keeping his composure. When he heard Si Yinyin's words, he didn't hurry up. He didn't think this little girl could do business with him.
Si Yinyin was not as anxious as Cai Cai just now. She stretched out her plain hand and took a sip of the tea on the table before calmly saying, "How about I exchange my salt for the food in your hand."
Mo Shi was stunned, put down the pastry in his hand, and stared at Si Yinyin for a moment, even showing a trace of coercion, she was completely dissatisfied, and met his firm and affirmative gaze.
Shaking his head, Mo Shi sighed lightly: "I can't ask for too much salt, and I can't give you too much food either."
There is a good shortage of salt in the mountains, but with just a few families, they can’t buy a few tons of salt and pile it up. A catty of salt is enough to feed their family for several months, and some people who save a little can still eat it. half a year.
"Then I'll exchange it with you for silver, and I'll take as much grain as you have. You can also buy salt with me for silver. This is a good deal, and you won't suffer at all."
Si Yinyin believes that the other party will not refuse her request. This is something that is beneficial to both parties, and only a fool will refuse.
Mo Shi looked at Si Yinyin for a while, and couldn't figure out why this girl insisted on holding on to them. Even if she saw something was wrong, she wouldn't have to cooperate with them as soon as she came up. It was necessary to find out the background of the other party. right.
"I've always employed people without suspicion. Since you have the intention and I have the intention, this deal will be done. I believe that everyone has everyone's secrets. I won't pry into you, and you shouldn't pry into me either. It will be done."
Si Yinyin seemed to see through Mo Shi, opening and closing her vermilion lips to clarify the words.
She had a strong premonition that these two people would definitely bring her unexpected surprises, just like the fate destined in the dark.
"Success, I will send you the grain in the spring of next year. Let me tell you that it may be coarse grain, and the fine grain will take a few years. I hope that the business with you will be long-term." Although Mo Shi was surprised, she said I was also surprised that she had such thoughts at such a young age, but she still agreed to cooperate with her.
"But do you need other things, such as wild skins, bacon, beef jerky, sauerkraut and the like."
Si Yinyin took a short breath, and his face, which was originally happy, suddenly shrugged. Mo Shi's words changed the subject, and he was hit hard. Did the two of them treat her like a grocery store?
The hand hidden in the sleeve clenched a little more deeply, the gums were biting a little sore, her eyebrows were tightly frowned, and Yingying Yueyue could still feel her forehead throbbing.
Mo Shi had a panoramic view of the changes in Si Yinyin's expression, and secretly sighed that the girl's character was good, but she was not good at pretending, and someone with a little bit more vicious eyes could see her innermost thoughts.
Mo Shi didn't speak, and waited quietly for her to speak.
After a long time of embarrassment in the room, Si Yinyin nodded reluctantly, weighing the pros and cons, even if she is a groceries collector, she is the one who benefits the most, and losing a little money is nothing.
After the two parties made an agreement, Luo Qiu took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone and put it in front of Si Yinyin. Si Yinyin drew up a contract and signed it with his own name.
Mo Shi looked at the smooth and graceful handwriting on the paper, and couldn't help but secretly nodded, thinking that it was extremely beautiful, and then sighed after putting it down.
Si Yinyin originally thought that the other party knew calligraphy when he looked at him, and he was secretly proud that his own calligraphy has been learned from famous masters since he was a child. Shaking her head and sighing again, she couldn't understand.
After Yang Lin took it, he did the same as Mo Shi did. The two nodded to each other, then shook their heads, looked at each other, and then sighed.
"There's something wrong." Si Yinyin really couldn't figure it out. Could it be that there was something wrong with the contract he drafted that made the two of them look like this.
Mo Shi and Yang Lin sneered, no matter how well written this word is, what's the use of it, Mo Shi is a person who can't read a single character, Yang Lin learned some when he was a child, and he doesn't know many characters, looking at this contract is so-so Yes, you can understand it when you take it apart, but you don’t understand what it means when you put it together.
"I can't read." Mo Shi was not embarrassed, he didn't know the characters in this world at all, so he spoke out his own shortcomings frankly.
Yang Lin also scratched his head, and smiled at Si Yinyin honestly: "I have been learning since I was seven years old, and I know only a limited number of words. I can't understand your contract either. Tell me about it."
Si Yinyin's cheeks were blushing, and she looked at the two with fire in her eyes, feeling like she was about to go berserk. She didn't understand why she didn't remind her before writing, and she nodded and appreciated while holding the contract after writing. Thought it was an expert.
Si Yinyin stood up, paced the attic angrily, gritted her teeth and said nothing, she was afraid that she couldn't help but want to kill someone.
Seeing this, Luo Qiu picked up the contract and walked to Yang Lin's side: "Since you can read, just write your name in the narration. Our master will not cheat you."
Luo Qiu's tone was very bad, and he had never seen his master so angry before. It seemed that the two people's methods were very clever, and I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional.
Yang Lin thinks about it, they are not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, even if they write this contract and fail to fulfill it, they can still chase him into the mountains to kill him.
Yang Lin picked up Si Yinyin's wolfhair brush, dipped the tip of the pen in ink, and wrote his name on the contract paper with style, but his handwriting was in stark contrast to Si Yinyin's.
One is neat and tidy, and the other is crooked. It's really hard to see. Even Yang Lin has this strong feeling of destroying the beauty after writing.
"Hey……"
Luo Qiu also frowned after reading it, and silently glanced at Si Yinyin's back, always feeling that the master would be even more angry if he saw the contract, so he put the contract aside so that Si Yinyin could not see it.
It took a while for Si Yinyin to put away the gloom in his heart. Seeing that they had signed the contract, he sat down and said to Luo Qiu: "Luo Qiu, give the two gentlemen a hundred catties of salt, and we will It is the partner, and this salt is a gift from me to my husband."
"Thank you." After accepting the salt, Mo Shi took Yang Lin and his things out of the attic. The sky was endless, and they planned to rush back to the mountain village early.
"I haven't asked your name yet." Seeing that they were about to leave, Si Yinyin remembered that the two hadn't told him their name yet.
"Mo Shi, Yang Lin."
After Mo Shi finished speaking, he led Yang Lin into the crowd with strides, and disappeared without a trace.
"Master, do we want to follow..." Luo Qiu originally wanted to ask if he should send someone to follow, but seeing that the two of them below didn't even have a ghost, it was as if they had never appeared before, so he was dumbfounded.
Si Yinyin's pupils also shrank. It seemed that her intuition was correct. These two people were indeed extraordinary. It was good that Xin hadn't done anything against them, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
After Si Yinyin calmed down, she found the contract that Luo Qiu had put away, and felt a little proud. With this contract, it was as if the two parties were bound.
As a result, Si Yinyin picked up the contract and saw the crooked words on it, her face turned green with anger...
The author has something to say:
I seriously suspect that everyone has peeped into my brain and can guess everything I write...
