Chapter 559
You know, because of Qin Yu, merchants in the Southern Region have a large amount of grain piled up and cannot sell it, and the autumn harvest is about to come, and then there will be an oversupply of grain again!
These merchants will face the situation of whether to collect grain or not. If they collect it, a lot of grain will not be sold. If they don’t collect it, others will collect it, and their business will inevitably be affected next year!
"Oh! You mean, the merchants in the Southern Territory are willing to provide me with food and fodder? That's great! It doesn't matter if the price is a little higher!"
The Sixth Prince said hurriedly.
"Uncle Wang, it's a bit too expensive!"
Qin Mang said in a deep voice.
"It's a bit expensive, but how much more can it be? As long as they are willing to provide me with food, I can give them a price of forty coins per pound!"
The Sixth Prince waved his hand and directly offered a price of forty cents per pound!
After hearing this price, Yin Jiaolong couldn't help but frown. You know, the normal price of food is thirty cents per catty.
The quantity they wanted was so large that they could have negotiated a price of twenty-five cents per pound, but the Sixth Prince directly quoted a price of forty cents per pound, which was a sky-high price. They were losing a huge amount of money!
However, after hearing this, Qin Mang shook his head slightly. The Sixth Prince was stunned. Forty cents is not enough? The merchants in the Southern Region are so greedy!
"My nephew, since you're acting as a middleman, I can offer you a price of 45 coins per pound for the grain. This price is sky-high!"
The Sixth Prince said in a deep voice.
Qin Mang still frowned. Indeed, forty-five cents per catty would be a sky-high price under normal circumstances!
But unfortunately, Qin Yu had just offered a price of 120 wen some time ago, and even in the end, it ended at 60 wen.
The prices sold by those grain merchants from outside were also over forty cents per catty. If he wanted to ease the relationship with the merchants from the Southern Region, the price of forty-five cents per catty was absolutely unacceptable!
Moreover, the Sixth Prince himself offered a price of forty-five cents per catty, so it wouldn't be excessive at all to raise the price to ninety cents per catty!
I help merchants sell grain at 90 wen per pound, so it is only natural for me to take a commission of 10 wen.
"Uncle Wang! Don't you know that some time ago, that bastard Qin Yu bought grain at the exorbitant price of 120 coins per pound? He's already bought up all the grain in the Southern Region!"
"Even with this grain, I had to negotiate with the merchants in the Southern Territory for a long time. I almost had to kneel down before they agreed to sell it to Uncle Wang!"
"And you also know how ruthless Qin Yu is. They are taking a huge risk by selling grain to you. If they are not careful, Qin Yu might confiscate their property and exterminate their entire clan!"
"So, the price must be at least ninety coins per pound!"
Qin Mang said in a deep voice.
"Huh! Ninety cents a pound, that's barely acceptable!"
Upon hearing this, the Sixth Prince breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, Qin Mang said that Qin Yu bought grain at the sky-high price of 120 coins per catty, which really shocked him. He was worried that merchants in the Southern Region would also want to sell at this price.
I heard that it is 90 wen per catty, which is 30 wen cheaper per catty. This price is definitely acceptable!
"Then Uncle Wang, how much do you want for the first batch?"
Qin Mang asked in a deep voice.
"First batch, 10 million kilograms! I'm going up against that bastard Qin Yu, and I have to let him know that old ginger is still wise!"
The Sixth Prince said in a deep voice.
