The smile on Xia Daohua's face grew bigger and bigger. At first, he just raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and later even eight teeth were exposed.
Wang Silang took two steps back and stopped talking.
He had a vague suspicion that this girl had gone mad because of what he had said, or that she couldn't handle such a big blow and had become confused and muddled?
Unexpectedly, Xia Daohua simply laughed out loud: "Hahahaha, what's there to be afraid of if there's a shortage of food? Others may not have food, but I do! If we can defend the city with food, then the safety of our capital city is a sure thing!"
Wang Silang's expression suddenly changed several times.
The Wang family bought grain from Xia Daohua.
The price was cheap, the quantity was large, and the food was good. He had seen the quality with his own eyes. From Shu to Jiangnan, from Qingzhou to Luozhou, he had never seen such good grain from any grain merchant!
But this girl is very tight-lipped and has never revealed where she gets her goods from.
The Wang family had investigated her and found that the Xia family did indeed collect some grain and vegetables from the surrounding farmers, but that was probably just a careless trick.
The amount of vegetables is actually more than the amount of grain.
Moreover, the quality of the grain collected from the farmers was not comparable to that of the grain she sold. Even the supply alone, with her hammer here and broom there, the little she collected was not even enough for one transaction!
Where did she get her food?
The entire capital city has so many people, and once the city is besieged, families with a little money, even ordinary people, will be unable to resist buying more food. With more people buying, the price of food will inevitably rise. And once the price of food soars, I am afraid that even the court will not be able to stop those grain merchants who only see silver in their eyes from hoarding food!
Where does she get the confidence, ability and channels to ensure that everyone in such a big city has enough food to eat?
Xia Daohua looked at Wang Silang's changing expression and said with a smile:
"I must make this money. I can only pay for the goods and not buy on credit. But the price may not necessarily follow the market. I can sell it to the court at the current market price, or 50% higher than the market price. I can also sell it to other customers at the market price, or 10% higher than the market price. As for the people, I can open a low-priced grain store..."
Before Xia Daohua finished speaking, Wang Silang rushed to her excitedly and said, "Where did you get so much food? I have two thousand men under my command, and your sister has almost a thousand men under her command, but there is only half a month's worth of food left on this farm. Can you sell me some first?"
Xia Daohua smiled and said, "I'll sell it to you. Fine. I'm a businessman after all. As long as the money is in place, everything can be discussed."
Wang Silang's face wrinkled, knowing that this damn girl would not let go of the opportunity to ask for the big prize!
Isn't this just sending myself to her for her to slaughter? !
Xia Daohua ignored Wang Silang's expression. She was wondering whether she should do this business.
Although the Wang family betrayed her and kidnapped the Xia family, they did not cause any real harm to the Xia family and allowed Jinhua to reunite with the Xia family...
Although the old couple didn't say it, Xia Daohua knew that they must be happier than more angry in their hearts.
No matter how cold and unfilial Jinhua was, she was still my uncle's flesh and blood. Now that the first family was dwindling, Jinhua was still around, and although she would have to get married sooner or later, it was a little comfort to the old couple.
It was very unusual that the eldest cousin had always been indifferent to Jinhua and had not even spoken to her.
But Jinhua is still eldest brother's biological sister. No matter how much he resents and hates her in his heart, seeing that she is still alive should make him more relieved than sad, right?
As long as Jinhua doesn't come back to harm the Xia family, Xia Daohua will be satisfied.
With Jinhua's personality, if she could really marry Wang Silang, the Wang family would probably have a lot of fun in the future.
