Chapter 128 He is indeed an old liar
Yuan Tiangang has some abilities, but he just likes to pretend to be an outsider.
Li Shimin felt like he had a headache as he listened.
You have to say so much about something that can be done with just one word.
Although what he said was very useful to Li Shimin.
"Master Yuan, thank you for your hard work. Since it will be sunny these days, I can rest assured!" Li Shimin nodded.
"Your Majesty asked Pindao to deduce the weather in Chang'an, but what's the big deal?" Yuan Tiangang asked curiously.
"Someone told me that there will be a continuous heavy rain in Chang'an City in the near future..."
"It's ridiculous. Who dares to be so bold and dare to deceive His Majesty? His heart is to be punished!"
"Pindao's deduction shows that Chang'an City will have clear skies for the next month. How can there be rain?" Yuan Tiangang shouted.
The words just fell.
In the night sky, a few drops of cold rain fell on Yuan Tiangang's face.
Yuan Tiangang's face trembled violently, and his throat rumbled a few times.
The atmosphere was extremely awkward for a while.
"Haha!" Yuan Tiangang wiped the rain off his face and smiled awkwardly.
But this face seems a little green.
"This rain... it won't be heavy. It will stop soon. Don't worry, Your Majesty!" Yuan Tiangang gritted his teeth.
I secretly thought that I was a bit embarrassed today.
Li Shimin nodded and looked at Yuan Tiangang with some suspicion.
Not a moment passed again.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
Yuan Tiangang felt that his legs were a little weak.
"This... shouldn't last long, right, Your Majesty?" Yuan Tiangang tried his best to appear calm.
Li Shimin looked a little ugly. After a moment of silence, he nodded slowly and said, "Maybe... right!"
Wei Zheng stood aside, looking at the big raindrops, and secretly thought that Yuan Tiangang was indeed an old liar.
This ability of divination is even inferior to that of the young boy Zhao Chen.
Is it true that, as Zhao Chen said, this rain will really last for a long time?
After a stick of incense.
Li Shimin left angrily
Opened the star observatory.
Wei Zheng followed him with a stern expression.
The rain... is still heavy.
He slapped Yuan Tiangang on the face coldly.
Yuan Tiangang seemed unaware and dumbfounded.
This isn't right.
I... Where is the mistake?
…
Royal study room.
Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng and said nothing.
Wei Zheng sniffed and secretly thought that today's matter had nothing to do with him.
Even if your emperor wants to pursue him, he still dares to take action on that bull's nose.
"Wei Qing, do you think what Zhao Chen said is true?"
"Is it true that, as he said, this rain will continue for a month?" Li Shimin frowned and asked in a deep voice.
Li Shimin originally thought it was Zhao Chen's joke.
Who knows, it will really rain tonight.
Regarding what Zhao Chen said before, if Chang'an City ran out of food, Li Shimin felt a little uneasy.
If Zhao Chen really takes it seriously, then the chaos will be huge!
"Your Majesty, I haven't studied much about the celestial phenomena. I definitely don't know what the weather will be like after this."
"But someone just came to report that Zhao Chen purchased a large amount of grain in Dongshi today."
"Just now, Zheng He from the Zheng family in Xingyang also went to Zhao Chen's tavern."
"I guess they are talking about the purchase of this grain." Wei Zheng said slowly.
At this moment, he was also a little unsure of what would happen next.
However, Zhao Chen was indeed purchasing grain today.
And I heard that tens of thousands of stones have been purchased.
"Show off to Lantian County!" Li Shimin stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, it's already late at night. What are you going to do in Lantian County?" Wei Zheng didn't react for a moment.
"Grain warehouse!" Li Shimin said two words, then turned and walked out.
…
"Zhao Chen, today we have purchased 100,000 shi of grain and spent more than 4,000 guan."
"Later, people from the Zheng family in Xingyang will come over. They must have heard about our purchase of grain."
In the tavern, Li Ruoshuang drank tea and talked to Zhao Chen.
A few people are indeed tired today.
Even Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu, two talkative people, were resting against a pillar at the moment, not even bothering to say a word.
"Everyone has worked hard today. In a month, the money you will get will make your hands cramp when you count it!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.
"Brother, I won't be going back in the next few days. Just tell me, Old Cheng, what you want to do!"
"Hey, it's not cold now. Why don't we make a floor in the corridor in the backyard so that we three brothers can talk!" Qin Huaiyu also agreed.
They both don't want to stay here. .??.
He obviously didn't dare to go back, for fear of being beaten!
Zhao Chen didn't want to expose them. How could he expose them if they treated him like this?
"That's fine. Miss Ruoshuang will stay here to rest today. It's raining heavily outside, so as not to get all wet!" said Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang.
"That's fine!" Li Ruoshuang nodded.
"Hey, Zhao Chen, you said this was fine, why did it suddenly rain so heavily?"
"The sky is still clear during the day, but the rain is a bit strange!" Cheng Chumo scratched his head and looked at Zhao Chen.
"Then who knows?" Zhao Chen smiled and looked at the street under the rainy night.
There, a group of people came over with lanterns.
"But we need to buy food here?" A man walked into the tavern and shook off the rainwater splashing on his body.
"Yes, come in!" Zhao Chen said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw about ten people walking into the tavern.
The leader is Zheng He from the Zheng family in Xingyang.
Of course, even Li Ruoshuang and the others didn't know Zheng He.
Zheng He also had no impression of these young people.
"Our family has about 600,000 shi of food. Do you want it?"
? "Zheng He glanced at Zhao Chen and then glanced at the rest of the people in the tavern.
The people who bought food in Xindao turned out to be just some young boys.
Unexpectedly, I couldn't help but feel a little proud.
I secretly thought that I would definitely make a lot of money from this business today!
"Six hundred thousand stones?" Zhao Chen raised his head and looked at Zheng He in front of him.
There is a plan in mind.
"Yes, six hundred thousand stones. Are you interested, sir?" Zheng He nodded.
Today, Zheng He contacted the other companies and told them about the news that someone was buying grain in Dongshi.
The autumn harvest will be in one month.
The grain depots under Qiwang of the Fifth Surname are no longer stacked.
If you don’t take advantage of this opportunity to sell off these old grains, it will be difficult to sell them later!
Several companies agreed and asked Zheng He to help with this matter.
Now, Zheng He has 600,000 shi of grain in his hands. If he can sell them all, then...
Zheng He looked at Zhao Chen and felt inexplicably excited.
He secretly wondered where this fool could come from, buying a large amount of grain before the autumn harvest.
Isn’t this throwing money into the water?
But ridicule was ridicule, and Zheng He still hoped that the young man in front of him could be a little more "silly".
"Sir, the quality of this grain is of the highest quality. If you buy it today and sell it tomorrow, you will definitely make a profit!"
"Young Master, 600,000 dan of grain is not a lot. It can be easily maintained for two or three years."
"Maybe a disaster will happen one day, and the price of your 600,000 shi of food will increase dozens of times!"
"Yes, the harvest this year is not good, and the price of food will rise next year."
“If you don’t buy it today, you won’t be able to buy it tomorrow!”
Seeing that Zhao Chen was silent and seemed hesitant, Zheng He winked at the people around him.
Those who came with Zheng He were all the shopkeepers of the grain shop below Qi Wang.
At this moment, several people tried to persuade Zhao Chen.
