504 After hearing this, the merchant said, "Well, 40,000 dan of grain was sold on the black market last night, which directly lowered the price of grain to 35 wen."
Shen Wansan asked, "Whose food is this?"
"I don't know. It's not ours. I asked around and it's not Yelu's either. Something strange is going on."
After hearing this, Shen Wansan said, "It belongs to Chen Jiusi."
Um?
After hearing this, everyone around looked at Shen Wansan.
"Didn't Chen Jiusi's food get burned?"
Shen Wansan said: "Haha... it's burned down. Did you see it? That fire might have been used to lure you into a trap."
The people around were all stunned and asked, "Who is this Jun?"
Shen Wansan said: "Of course it's us."
The people of Suzhou Chamber of Commerce said, "What should we do now? If Chen Jiusi's grain had not been burned, he would have at least 70,000 shi, plus Yelu's 100,000 shi, so they would have at least 170,000 shi of grain. With such a large amount of grain, if he insists on dumping it, our grain prices may not rise for a long time!"
"Yeah, what can we do?"
Everyone in the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce frowned.
After hearing this, Shen Wansan thought for a moment and said, "The enemy is trying to panic us, so we must not panic, and we must not rush to sell the grain, otherwise we will fall into the enemy's trap. 170,000 dan of grain is a lot, but it is still half of the gap in Mianshui County. We still have a chance."
After hearing this, everyone from the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce looked at Shen Wansan and said, "Brother, why don't we take action?"
Shen Wansan said: "It depends on who can endure at this time. If we can endure, the money we should earn will still be ours. If we can't endure, then it will be like an avalanche, and the grain price will fall directly, and our trip will be in vain."
After hearing this, the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce said, "Then, just be patient."
Shen Wansan said: "Endure!"
On the other hand, Zhou Peng and others could hardly sit still, especially when they heard that the price of grain had fallen to thirty-five cents.
The price has fallen from a high of fifty cents to below thirty-five cents. They are now very panicked, fearing that the price will continue to fall. If it falls further, they will not make much money.
At this time, Liu Rong said, "Boss Zhou, if you don't give us some money, the grain price is already 35 today, who knows if it will be 30 tomorrow."
Zhou Peng said: "No, Lord Yelu said we have to hold on."
Wang Yuanwai said, "Boss Zhou, Lord Yelu has no more food, so he can hold on, but our Wang family depends on this little food to make a comeback."
"Yes, Boss Zhou, I can't bear it anymore. If the price drops any further, I won't make much."
After hearing this, Zhou Peng said, "Everyone, everyone, please believe me once. The price of grain has bottomed out at 35 coins. There is no more grain in the Mian River, so everyone just has to be patient, patient, patient!"
Everyone looked at each other after hearing this, and then said, "Well, okay, let's listen to Gang Leader Zhou again. Everyone should be patient for a few more days and see what happens."
…
Fishing Gang, Chen Mansion.
"how?"
Chen Jie asked Xiaohu, after they learned the latest grain prices today, what actions did the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce and Yelu's men take?
After hearing this, Xiao Hu said, "Boss, Suzhou Chamber of Commerce and Zhou Peng haven't made any moves."
Chen Jie smiled: "You are quite patient."
After saying this, Chen Jie said, "Well, you and Chen Heng will take a thousand gang members to the dock. Chen Wang will probably be back from Huangzhou Prefecture by noon today, and he will bring back enough food."
After hearing this, Xiaohu asked, "Today at noon?"
"Um."
Chen Jie took the lead, and Xiao Hu said, "The leader won't go take a look today."
Chen Jie waved his hand and said, "No, I need two furnaces of elixirs from Master today, so I'll leave today's affairs to you."
After hearing this, Xiaohu said, "Yes."
Xiaohu left immediately, and Chen Jie came to a quiet room where Bai Wenjing was already waiting.
Bai Wenjing held two pill recipes in her hand and said, "Jiu Si, your Qi and Blood Pill is a Mirror-breaking Pill of the Baodan Realm. It is very demanding to refine, so you must be prepared for failure."
Liu Yishou on the side said: "Yes, Boss, this is the first time we have refined a pill of this level."
Chen Jie said: "Everyone has a first time, and this time I have the help of Master Liu and my master, so I have confidence."
That's right, the person who is mainly refining the elixir today is Chen Jie. As for Chen Jie's level, let me put it this way, Chen Jie is the successor of Changchun Valley, and there are a large number of alchemy books in the iron ring in his hand.
Chen Jie showed some of these books to Bai Wenjing, who said that he suddenly became enlightened and his alchemy skills improved rapidly.
Chen Jie read more.
In this way, Chen Jie began today's refining. There are two types of pills that Chen Jie refined today.
One is the Hualing Pill that can break through the Huajin level. Chen Jie had refined the Hualing Pill once, so he had some experience with it.
The second is the recipe for the pill [Qi Xue Dan] that Chen Jie got from Han He.
Qixue Dan is a mirror-breaking pill that can help you break through the Qixue Baodan realm. Although Chen Jie has already broken through the Qixue Baodan realm, he still has his subordinates.
If you want to rule the world, you can't rely on fighting alone, so your subordinates must also be armed.
This is also the reason why Chen Jie refined these two kinds of pills.
This time, when refining the elixir, Chen Jie still used the Changchun furnace passed down from his ancestors in Changchun Valley.
That's right, it's the small green furnace located in the center of the iron ring. It's also a martial arts secret treasure. The success rate of using it to refine pills is much higher than other pills.
Chen Jie picked up the Changchun furnace and started today's refining.
According to the old rules, the first furnace is a pad furnace, which is used to heat up the furnace and familiarize the user with the feel. Therefore, the elixir refined is not a very expensive one, but a detoxification pill.
The effect was very successful and it worked in one batch.
Everyone felt that today's hand feeling was good, so they started to refine the [Spiritual Transformation Pill] in the second furnace.
The materials for the Hualing Pill were all exchanged between Chen Jie and Zhao Ya, and the refining process began soon. With the help of the two experienced seniors, Chen Jie was very successful and directly produced a furnace of Hualing Pills.
There are five Hualing Pills in this furnace, which means that it can create at least five Huajin masters.
Chen Jie kept it well, as it would be the foundation for his Mianshui fishing gang in the future.
After refining the Hualing Pill, Chen Jie felt that he was in hot form today, so he struck while the iron was hot and refined a batch of Qi and Blood Pills.
Chen Jie took the furnace and started refining. With the help of the two old seniors, the refining of this batch of Qi and Blood Pills was very smooth. Of course, this was mainly due to the knowledge Chen Jie learned from Changchun Valley.
In Changchun Valley's knowledge system, being able to refine Qi and Blood Pills is considered entry level.
The pills were quickly refined, and this batch was very successful, but only three pills were produced.
This way Chen Jie's work for the day was successfully completed.
Moreover, his reserves are also complete. At present, Chen Jie's reserves of elixirs can be said to be very complete. First of all, there are high-level elixirs, three Qi and Blood Pills, five Spirit Transformation Pills, and ten Tai Sui Pills of the second grade (robbed from Batan).
There are one hundred first-grade Tai Sui pills, and a number of various auxiliary pills.
It can be said that Chen Jie is very rich now, and these are all prepared by Chen Jie for his gang.
After finishing all this, Chen Jie came out of the alchemy room and found that it was just noon. He had to say that today's pill refining went very smoothly indeed.
The first is that with the knowledge from Changchun Valley, Chen Jie's understanding of elixirs has reached a higher level.
Secondly, the alchemy furnace Chen Jie used today is the treasure of Changchun Valley. The Changchun furnace is a martial arts secret treasure. First, it can increase the success rate of elixirs, and second, it can shorten the time of alchemy.
And today, with the help of two seniors, Bai Wenjing and Liu Yishou, Chen Jie was able to be so successful.
Therefore, as soon as noon arrived, Chen Jie walked out of the alchemy room.
As soon as he came out, he saw Zhou Chu, who was sitting there eating fried meatballs. When he saw Chen Jie, he said, "Boss, you're out. Everyone in the gang has gone to the dock."
Chen Jie asked, "Is Chen Wang here?"
Zhou Chu said: "Yes, I just arrived not long ago."
At this time, ten merchant ships flying the flags of the Fishermen's Gang were docked at the dock. Chen Wang stood at the bow of the ship and looked at Xiaohu who was waiting for the ship and said, "Brother Hu, I brought back the grain for you, a total of 100,000 shi!"
After hearing this, Xiaohu said, "Awang, you have worked hard. Let us unload the boat. Brothers, it's time to transport the grain!"
Xiaohu shouted, and the next moment everyone rushed onto the merchant ship and started today's grain transportation. After having transported a wave of grain yesterday, they were familiar with the process today.
Xiaohu went up to Chen Wang and said, "Awang, which ones are real food?"
Awang said: "Those."
Xiaohu asked, "What about the rest?"
Awang said: "Mud and stones."
Xiaohu said, "Don't leak it."
Awang said, "Don't worry. According to the leader's request, the dirt and stones are packed in thick sacks. Even if you use a knife, it's hard to pull them apart. The real grain is packed in thin sacks. I deliberately made holes in some of them so that the grain can be dried on the road."
Xiaohu said: "Okay, you are much more steady now."
Awang said: "Hehe, they are all helping the bishop."
As they were talking, they began to transport grain, and grain carts continued to line up in a long queue and head into the city.
The people of Mianshui celebrated again, as they got another 100,000 shi of grain. That was great! This time, Mianshui would no longer be short of food.
Some people also wonder, is this food?
But he soon shut up because some of the grain sacks were opened and the grain was scattered all over the place, and the people from the fishing gang were very generous and did not stop the people from picking up the grain.
When the people picked up the food, they shouted excitedly: "Ah, food, it's real food!"
…
When the 100,000 dan of grain arrived at the dock, the entire Mianshui County was in an uproar, with countless people shouting excitedly, "We are saved this time."
After receiving the news, Suzhou Chamber of Commerce.
"What!"
Shen Wansan stood up from his chair, his face full of shock, and asked, "What did you say? Another 100,000 dan of grain entered the Mian River?"
"Brother Wansan, it is absolutely true. We brought people to see it for ourselves. All the grain was transported to the warehouse of the Fishery Gang. As a result, the warehouse was not enough, so we borrowed the warehouse of the Cao Gang for additional use."
After hearing this, Shen Wansan said, "How is this possible? Where did Chen Jiusi get the food from?"
After hearing this, a merchant said, "Brother Wan San, have you forgotten that the person standing behind Chen Jiu Si is the princess of the Ruyang Palace, and the Daruhachi of Huangzhou Prefecture is the adopted son of the Ruyang Prince."
