However, this thousand stones is not a small amount.
As far as this granary is concerned, it can't store a thousand shi of grain even if killed.
Even if the grains in their four grain stores were put together, it would definitely not be enough for a thousand shi.
"Sir, can you wait for a few days, the store really doesn't have so much food."
The shopkeeper looked at such a large piece of fat, and was anxious if he couldn't eat it.
"If there is no food, forget it."
"Little ones, let's go."
Su Dan turned around and was about to leave.
"Sir, go slowly. Don't worry, sir. In this city of Chang'an, apart from our four grain shops, who else can come up with a thousand shi of grain."
"Have a cup of tea first, and I'll prepare it for you right away. It won't take long."
After the shopkeeper stabilized Su Quan, he immediately called the shopkeepers of the three families together.
Discuss the plan to make a fortune.
"One thousand stones, although the sum of our four families doesn't have that much, but if we add some other things to it, won't we have it?"
"Furthermore, did the buyer bring any money? He didn't come here to check on us."
Head to head, the four muttered for a long time, and finally reached an agreement.
"Sir, a thousand shi of grain is easy to talk about, but this money..."
The shopkeeper came over and said with a half-smile.
"Go and bring a box and let the shopkeeper take a look."
As soon as Su Quan's words fell, two officials brought down a box of silver ingots from the carriage.
When I opened it, I immediately blinded the shopkeeper.
Even the eyes of the three shopkeepers behind him were shining.
"Sir, are you going to transport the food away today?"
The shopkeeper continued to ask.
"The food will be shipped out today. However, if you need to find chariots, horses and guys to deliver it, the shipping fee will naturally not treat you badly."
After hearing Su Quan's words, the faces of the four shopkeepers all burst into smiles.
That's the best thing.
As long as the grain left their granary, even if they later found out that there were stones and sand in it, it was too late.
When the time comes, who will accept this account?
"Sir, you drink tea, and I will send someone to the West Market to find some small workers to help you load, unload and deliver the grain."
"Should we still inspect the grain?"
After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Su Quan picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"The grain naturally needs to be inspected. As long as it is not moldy and contains no impurities, it is fine."
After hearing what Su Quan said, the four shopkeepers immediately nodded and bowed their heads in agreement.
"Sir, you can inspect the goods with confidence, we are a conscientious merchant in Chang'an City."
Su Quan cursed inwardly, you all have a conscience, but your conscience has been eaten by dogs.
At this moment, a carriage stopped at the gate of the grain merchant.
A young boy stepped down from the carriage, and behind him was a little girl who looked like a jade carving.
"Uncle Su, how is the food preparation going? The workers in our manor are just waiting for the rice to be cooked."
The one who spoke was naturally the sixth prince Li Chengan, and the one following behind him was naturally Princess Changle.
Su Quan is not stupid, although he has never met the sixth prince, but he has met Princess Changle.
Moreover, the reputation of the sixth prince has already risen in the officialdom, and the momentum is close to that of His Highness the Crown Prince.
Seeing Princess Changle following behind, Su Quan knew in her heart that this was undoubtedly the sixth prince that His Majesty mentioned.
"Well, I'm preparing to inspect the grain. After the inspection, when the workers they hired from the West Market arrive, they can load the trucks."
Su Qi replied with a smile.
"Uncle Su, hurry up, don't keep Father waiting."
After Li Chengan finished speaking, he took Chang Le's hand, turned around and boarded the carriage.
"Young Master, don't worry, it won't take long."
The four shopkeepers saw that this was the young master who was the patron, and immediately their attitudes changed.
The person who comes first with feelings is a butler.
At best, it's about the same level as them.
So, after Su Dan carefully inspected the grain, he spoke.
"Okay, this food is very good. It's a disaster year, so it's lucky to be able to buy such food."
Su Quan's words made all the four shopkeepers smile.
Of course it is good for you to see, but we will not be responsible for it after it is shipped out.
Soon more than 100 horse-drawn carriages lined up and rushed to Chang'an Avenue.
And there are hundreds of trolleys behind.
"The shopkeeper, the carriages in the West Market, all the small ones have been rounded up, there are only more than 100 of them, and the rest can only be used on carts."
Su Quan heard the words and answered first.
"It's okay, it's okay, no matter how it is shipped, as long as it is delivered as soon as possible."
Hearing Su Tan's words, the four shopkeepers began to ask the staff to bring the weights.
A firm, of course, has a big weight.
This weight can weigh as much as a stone.
Su Quan sat in front of the scales and watched them weigh them.
Behind the granary, everything is in full swing now.
Carloads of stones, sand, bricks and tiles were all mixed into it.
Don't underestimate these things, when it matters, it's money.
When the thousand stones came down, it was already past noon.
In this way, Su Quan set off with the deliverers under the sun. Of course, each of the four grain merchants also sent a man to follow.
They also want to know, who is such a big benefactor?
