Chapter 431 They secretly went to sell rice

Zhou Ruiyuan nodded, "Yes, the iron shop man said that the Agricultural Bank of China is taller and has a small scar on his wrist."

Du Wanchun recalled it carefully, and suddenly many people flashed through his mind, and finally he settled on the time when he was quarreling with the villagers in the village yesterday.

She remembered seeing scars on one man's wrist.

She thought about it carefully, and then she was shocked.

It was a young man standing behind Boss Lu. The young man didn't speak from the beginning to the end, but just stood obediently behind Boss Lu.

When Boss Lu wanted to rush up and argue with her, the young man put his hand on Boss Lu's shoulder to stop him. ?.?????.ℂ??

It was at that time that Du Wanchun saw the scar on his wrist.

So all this makes sense. No wonder the Lu family and the Ding family have been clamoring for money from her.

It seems that there is a ghost in these two families.

On the second day, in Populus euphratica village.

Boss Lu was sitting at the table, looking at the table, and cursing: "What's going on at Lao Ding's house? Didn't he say that someone would buy our rice? Why hasn't he come yet?"

The young man next to him advised: "Brother, don't worry. Brother Ding said someone bought it, so it must be someone. The most important thing for us now is to find a way to get the money from Shopkeeper Du in three days."

There are only two brothers in the Lu family, the eldest and the second.

The eldest son has been married for three years, but his wife was kicked away by him a year ago.

The second child is not married yet. He fell in love with the daughter of a family member of a family in Changliu Village a few days ago. However, the family disliked him for being poor, so the marriage was called off.

The parents of the two brothers died young, so they worked together to create such a big event.

They conspired with the Ding family to make a fake token similar to that of the Zhou family, and then disguised themselves as Zhou family workers to collect rice in the village.

They planned to sell the harvested rice to rice merchants in the next county town at a high price, and at the same time, they also wanted to get a sum of money from Du Wanchun.

After getting the money, the two families secretly left here.

But now, not only was Du Wanchun unwilling to give them money, but even the rice merchant the Ding family contacted did not come to buy rice.

They didn't know that after Du Wanchun learned yesterday that someone had secretly harvested their rice, he sent people to more than a dozen nearby counties to tell rice merchants in these more than ten counties not to harvest rice in the near future.

The Zhou Family Rice Shop is now a giant rice seller in Qingzhou Prefecture, and no one dares to disobey the Zhou Family.

So what they collect now cannot be sold in the short term.

Just when Mr. Lu was having a headache, someone from the Ding family suddenly came. It was the eldest brother of the Ding family.

The eldest brother of the Ding family knocked on the door, "Brother Lu, open the door quickly, there is a big event coming!"

Boss Lu was immediately overjoyed and quickly stood up and opened the door, "Brother Ding, how's it going? Is the shopkeeper willing to buy our rice?"

The eldest brother of the Ding family smiled and said: "That shopkeeper didn't buy it, but I found another master."

Mr. Lu laughed heartily and said, "Which shopkeeper are you from?"

The eldest brother of the Ding family replied: "It is said that he is a gentleman from the capital. He is passing through Cheng'an County and wants to buy some rice back."

Mr. Lu laughed so much that his eyes narrowed into thin lines, "How much money is he willing to give us?"

The eldest brother of the Ding family held out five fingers and said, "So many."

Boss Lu smiled in surprise and said, "Five hundred taels of silver?"

The eldest brother of the Ding family smiled meaningfully: "Five hundred taels is only part of it. After he checks our rice, he will give us another three hundred taels of silver, making a total of eight hundred taels of silver."

Eight hundred taels of silver were divided between their two families, and each person received 400 taels of silver.

Boss Lu's face was full of smiles. Four hundred taels of silver was enough for them to go to other small villages to become lords.

I won’t be able to marry any kind of wife then.

"Okay, when will we send the rice over?" Mr. Lu asked with a big smile.

The eldest brother of the Ding family poured himself a cup of tea on the table, took a sip, and said with a satisfied smile, "Just tomorrow."

Mr. Lu clapped his hands and said, "Okay!"

The two of them collected the rice and hid it secretly in a cave on the mountain.

I was worried every day for fear that Du Wanchun would find the rice.

The next night.

Boss Lu and the eldest brother of the Ding family asked everyone in the family to smuggle out the rice from the cave.
