Chapter 5: What if the family fortune is exhausted? I, from the Ye family, will support him!
Goodness, it has already started to not speak human language!
Du Tao finally realized
She is merely a maid, of little significance and influence
This is your ration card, please keep it safe
At present, Qitian holds a dominant position; if the prices cannot be controlled, it will be the end of it
Ye Ning continued, "Even if Qi Tian exhausts his family fortune, he must marry me. A man like this is hard to find even with a lantern. My judgment has indeed never been wrong!"
There are numerous grain shops within the capital, and each of these shops has a granary located outside the city.
Ye Ning murmured, happiness was about to overflow from her heart
The staple foods are mostly millet and rice.
You will know later
... ...
I heard that they are selling off their assets and have sold all the land at home
The variety of grains available here is also relatively limited
Alas, it is a pity for the esteemed Duke of Xibo, who has never suffered defeat on the battlefield throughout his life, to have such a son.
The young people are all stunned
Xiao Qing was feeling frantic; she had already realized that she could no longer persuade her young lady.
Do you think I am joking?
In a state of urgency, Du Tao immediately stood up and rushed outside with the servants of the residence
Is it acceptable?
Yun Niang, upon hearing this, could only remain silent
Then, continuing to embrace Yun Niang, they strolled down the street under Liu Ping's guidance
The master of the Liangxiang Mansion is Du Tao
The prices in the capital are managed by him and the Ministry of Revenue together
People in this era are truly short-sighted, like sparrows that do not understand the aspirations of swans
The helpless old shopkeeper could only nod in agreement at this moment
After all, it is normal to hold a considerable amount of resources in this line of business
The food demand of 100,000 people, in this barren era, is sufficient to shake the market grain prices
Get lost
Xiao Qing is numb
Has the young lady also fallen ill with a brain disorder
How to sell
The deployment in the West Gate has commenced, and military rations and supplies will undoubtedly be continuously transported in that direction
Isn't the young master of the Qi family out of his mind?
Qi Tian waved his hand, dismissing the messenger to the side
Indeed!
On the other side, several servants also entered the Chancellor's residence
Ye Ning made a serious decision, her small face filled with determination
Damn it! This bastard!
Yun Niang was astonished to see Qi Tian effortlessly hand over a banknote of eleven thousand taels of silver
Once the price rises, he will not earn a single cent from this trip, and he may even have to pay out of his own pocket
Liu Ping quickly grabbed hold of Qi Tian
Have the supplies been purchased? They have all been bought!
Oh dear, you may not know this, but I heard someone say yesterday that this fellow has a mental disorder
Young master, what are you doing!
However, after finishing her words, Xiao Qing noticed that her young lady's expression did not seem to be angry
How many do you have
As Qi Tian and his companions continued to explore other grain shops in the streets, their misdeeds quickly spread throughout the capital.
As soon as he saw the members of the Xibo family make a fool of themselves in public, he immediately returned home to report to Du Tao
The grain shopkeeper issued a receipt to Qi Tian
Miss, please wake up!
A sinking feeling arose in Du Tao's heart as he sensed that something was amiss
Upon hearing these words, Xiao Qing was immediately rendered speechless
Qiao, this is all seven wen per jin
As soon as he entered the store, Qi Tian saw numerous large jars, all filled with rice grains
... ...
One has become a spendthrift and a wastrel, yet still handles matters so ineffectively
The people around them immediately began to discuss among themselves
Where is the grain store
I asked the servants of the Xibo Marquis's residence, and they told me that last night, Qitian said he wanted to sell his possessions to make money for marrying you. But what kind of business is he doing!
What is the matter with you, my lord
Go away, don't block my shopping.
In years of famine, if the imperial treasury lacks provisions, it will not purchase grain from the civilian granaries
Liu Ping, next one!
The total amounts to eleven thousand three hundred and twenty taels of silver, but I will charge you eleven thousand taels. How would you like to pay
Haha, I don't know what kind of madness this is!
Seller's product
No wonder
Everyone knows that the master of the household, as the current Prime Minister, has a very poor relationship with the Duke of Xibo
Let him engage in business; it does not matter whether he earns a lot or a little, as long as he is ambitious and loves me. What does it matter if he loses his family fortune? The Ye family will support him!
Ye Ning looked at Xiao Qing in disbelief
The period of the Great Beam was still one characterized by relatively low planting efficiency
My lord, that Qi Tian from the Xibo Marquis's residence has bought out several grain shops in the city today
Because ...! ... the task of delivering supplies to the west was also handled by Du Tao
There is indeed no problem with that
Xiao Qing quickly explained
Where did this guy get his money from
What a mess this is
Isn't the key point that Qi Tian has already squandered the family fortune
Liu Ping got up from the ground, his face contorted in a plea for mercy
Understood, Miss
The scene where Qi Tian casually discarded his father's letter without even glancing at it elicited nothing but sighs from the crowd
We have quite a lot of grain here... approximately over 100,000 jin, and there is our granary outside the city.
He truly did not deceive me
That bastard sold the family property, and with no provisions left at home, he started buying up all the grain from the streets!
As such nonsensical remarks were made, the onlookers all wrinkled their noses
Liu Ping has been following Qi Tian in the capital for many years as a servant, and he is very familiar with the roads and various shops here
"When my family, the Ye family, forms a marriage alliance with others, when is there a need to concern ourselves with family assets?"
From this moment on, all the provisions in their granary are abundant.
That is it
Qi Tian kicked Liu Ping in the backside
Mr. Qi, you cannot be serious!
What is there to be afraid of? If he hits you, I will teach him a lesson! Old fool, he won't amount to anything without being beaten!
Young master, spending money is easy, but saving money is difficult
Is it important to bring her over the threshold?
Had no choice but to close my mouth, nod slightly, and leave
In the courtyard of the Ye family
Du Tao raised an eyebrow while looking at the document
Miss, Miss! Something is wrong! That Qi Tian is going crazy again
All of it to me
Instead, she appeared bashful, her face flushed with a rosy hue
The shopkeeper, upon seeing the chaotic world demon king Qi Tian approaching, immediately walked briskly to his side and said
Ye Ning, who was sitting in the courtyard reading, immediately stood up, her face revealing her worry without any concealment
Just as the shopkeeper finished responding with a forced smile, Qi Tian's next words startled him.
While others aspire for their children to become successful, here in Qi Tian, it seems the aspiration is for the father to achieve greatness instead
Where is he? Take me there quickly
Today, when I went out to purchase daily necessities for the household, I also received some news
Regarding Qitian's behavior, Xiaoqing believes that it can no longer be described as nonsense
Qi Tian murmured softly and then turned his gaze towards the west
Xiao Qing tiptoed into the courtyard
"Young master, if the marquis finds out that I am spending money on you like this, he will kill me"
Qi Tian turned his head to inquire
Unexpectedly, Ye Ning said with a serious expression
