Chapter 283 Is there really no power division?
"I dare not guarantee that the exchanges between the two have nothing to do with grain."
"My lord, the Crown Prince's wife is really a smart person!!!"
The Crown Prince's wife has such a good relationship with the old man, how could she let the old man leave the world with regrets and never rest in peace? It was not
until Butler Wang mentioned the old man again and again that Zhu Dingxing remembered what kind of person his biological father was.
Although he had passed the imperial examination and entered the officialdom, he did not like the officialdom .
His trouser legs, which were always rolled up, were always stained with mud spots that disgusted him and his mother.
His father always spent more time tending to the crops in the fields than with him and his mother.
He always felt that those green seedlings were his father's sons, and he was just a stone that his father picked up from the roadside.
The more he thought about it, the more distinct the image of the old master became,
making Zhu Dingxing's dusty memories come alive.
"Master, the Crown Princess and the old master have a special relationship."
"Other people don't remember the old master's regret, but the Crown Princess will never forget it."
"I think that the Crown Princess is really thinking about you today by persuading you to sell the grain as soon as possible, and she doesn't want you to suffer heavy losses."
"Sir, you are the Crown Princess's biological father."
It may be that the last cry of Butler Wang awakened Zhu Dingxing's rationality.
Zhu Dingxing may not like Zhu Xuntao as his daughter, but he will never do anything to make Zhu Xuntao die.
On the other hand, Zhu Xuntao has no father-daughter feelings for him,
and she also does not want him to die.
Zhu Xuntao hopes that the two of them can live in peace and not disturb each other. If
the Zhu family is really in trouble due to food, it will also be bad news for Zhu Xuntao, and Zhu Xuntao does not want to see it.
"The rice shop will open tomorrow..."
After understanding Zhu Xuntao's character, Zhu Dingxing closed his eyes, as if he had compromised.
"Dad!!!"
Hearing that his own rice shop will open tomorrow and sell at twice the price,
the furious Zhu Yingyan hurried over and wanted to ask for clarification.
"Dad, didn't you tell your daughter before that we would only open our rice shop when the grain price goes back to five times the original price?"
Five times the price was definitely not enough for Zhu Yingyan.
As long as they were not in a hurry and could hold back, higher prices would be waiting for them.
Zhu Yingyan could hold back, but she knew that Zhu Dingxing would never be the same as her.
Her father would never agree to hoard the new grain until after the autumn harvest and rather let it age before selling it.
But even if it couldn't be delayed until after the autumn, the earliest should be after the spring ploughing season is completely over
, right? By that time, it would not be a problem for the grain price to rise five times.
Five times...
How should I put it? Under the stimulation of the double price, Zhu Yingyan no longer dared to ask for five times the price.
But Zhu Yingyan couldn't justify double the price.
"If we open tomorrow, let alone five times the price, it's impossible to triple it!"
Zhu Yingyan got angry.
The Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince had enough new grain, so the price control was really ruthless.
All the rice merchants dared not offend the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince, and the sales and prices of rice grains were carefully controlled.
How could the Zhufu in the capital dare to be the first to do so?
According to the development of the previous generation, spring ploughing was difficult, and the price of rice at this time had already risen to seven or even eight times!
The best selling point in Zhu Yingyan's mind started from this time.
But in this life, the time for selling has clearly arrived, but the price has not kept up.
Zhu Yingyan is not willing to let Zhu Dingxing sell her hard work at such a low price at this time. Zhu
Dingxing has no room to discuss with Zhu Yingyan:
"This matter is settled. If you are a daughter with too much free time, you should go embroider flowers and read more poetry."
"Don't interfere in matters that
are not your business." "Also, I will return you the money you spent without missing a penny, and I will never let you suffer a loss."
Therefore, Zhu Yingyan can put away this painful expression.
No matter how much goodies his children have in their pockets, unless they are as much as Zhu Xuntao,
he, as a father, will never touch them.
Zhu Yingyan was shaking with anger.
Will she be at a loss?
She had finally gotten Yijia to buy back the grain, but it was sold at twice the price. Wasn't she at a loss enough?
If she had known her father was so impatient, she would never have told him about her hoarding of grain.
Her father was not a man who could handle big things!
"Dad, you will regret it!"
Having seen Zhu Xuntao making a fortune, Zhu Yingyan's ambition was about to overflow.
She thought she could show her skills in this grain sale.
Unexpectedly, all her plans were ruined by Zhu Dingxing.
Everyone was trying to stop her and didn't want her to succeed!
But she would never give up. She would make her father and others regret it.
"..."
Seeing that Zhu Yingyan dared to lose her temper with him, Zhu Dingxing's brows were tightly wrinkled,
"Yan'er is a smart child, but she can't compare with Zhu Xuntao at all."
"But her temper is really embarrassing. She has learned it from that Sun family."
"What man in the world would like a woman like this?"
"No wonder she is still not engaged at this age..."
When mentioning Zhu Yingyan's marriage, Zhu Dingxing's tone was full of regret.
Zhu Yingyan's age is the best match for the prince.
But Zhu Yingyan was unwilling. Zhu Dingxing tried several times, but the prince seemed to look down on Zhu Yingyan and even disliked Zhu Yingyan.
In fact, Zhu Yingyan's attitude towards the prince could not determine Zhu Dingxing's attitude.
Only the prince's likes and dislikes could make Zhu Dingxing give up the original plan and find another good husband for Zhu Yingyan.
In the second half of last year, Zhu Dingxing proposed some young talents that he liked to Madam Sun, but they were rejected one by one.
After so many times, Zhu Dingxing naturally found that it was not Madam Sun who looked down on these people, but Zhu Xuntao himself.
Since Zhu Yingyan didn't like the talent chosen by his father,
Zhu Dingxing let go and let Madam Sun and Zhu Yingyan to do what they wanted.
Especially knowing that Zhu Yingyan still had the mind to hoard food, he felt that Zhu Yingyan could stay in the Zhu Mansion for a while longer.
To this day, Zhu Dingxing no longer took the initiative to mention Zhu Yingyan's marriage.
Butler Wang didn't dare to interrupt the matter between Zhu Dingxing and Zhu Yingyan.
He just had to make sure that his old man would not argue with the Crown Prince's Consort because of a few words from the eldest lady.
"Then, old man, our rice shop will really open tomorrow."
Seeing Zhu Dingxing nod, Butler Wang said that he could finally sleep peacefully tonight.
Aunt He took over the housekeeping power from Butler Wang, feeling both happy and aggrieved:
"Butler Wang, does the master really want you to divide the housekeeping power equally between me and Aunt Wang?"
