Bai Fan, who was sitting at the bottom, asked, "Lord Gao, do you know if there is food in other places besides the official warehouse? If there is no food in the people's homes, and there is no food in the official warehouse, then all the people should go out to flee the famine." !"

Gao Shilian smiled and explained to Bai Fan, "No, no, there are also rich and poor families among the people. The rich and noble families will naturally accumulate food reserves from the disaster, so in the end, at most [-]% of the people flee, and the rest Thirty percent should be able to withstand the catastrophe!"

"Then since there is food in the local area, our imperial court can pay to buy their food for disaster relief! It doesn't matter if the price is higher! After these few days, when the food from the south arrives, everyone will be fine. ?”

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "How can there be such a good thing? In the face of a catastrophe, everyone knows that food is more useful than money. If the court says that food has arrived, how many people can believe it?

In case someone took out the food and the court couldn't transport the new food in the end, wouldn't the wealthy family also suffer from starvation? "

Fang Xuanling continued, "It's not that there are brave and kind-hearted people who come forward to help the disaster, but who can afford food for so many people?

The people who are hungry don't care about this, as long as there is someone to help the disaster, everyone will flock to it, and the people who come forward to help the disaster will not be able to bear it. If you don't do it for a few days, the food will be consumed by the refugees, and you will become a refugee yourself.

Therefore, over time, when encountering such a thing again, it is better for everyone to close the door and turn a blind eye. After all, the people will not break the door and rob it until the time of life and death! "

Bai Fan nodded, this is indeed the truth!

Is there really no other way?For a while, Bai Fan fell into deep thought, because he thought of an event that happened a few days ago!

A few days ago, Qinghe Cui Clan, the patriarch Cui Junchuo was discussing something with a group of clan elders!

"Patriarch, think of a way! If this continues, our Cui family's medicine business will be over, and now [-]% of the business has been taken away by those beggars. It is estimated that we will really have no business in a month at most!" A person in charge The elder of the medicinal material business said.

Cui Junchuo frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Those beggars are so bold, dare to provoke us? Are they not afraid of the government? Have you sent someone to give them a long memory?

Since ancient times, the people have not fought against the officials, our Cui family has officials in various places, can't we deal with them? "

I saw another person said, "Everyone knows that Bai Fan took action against our Cui family this time. With Bai Fan's identity, there is a hot-handed King Jin behind him, so except for our real power officials who can intervene, other places Officials with no real power are useless at all, and no local officials want to mess with King Jin!"

The clan elder who was in charge of medicinal materials said with a bitter face, "The key is that these beggars are not easy to mess with. We once sent people to smash their stores. Who knew that on that day, all the beggars in the city went. We can pull out a team of thousands of people casually, and we, Cui Shi, can't help it if we come hard!

What's even more hateful is that this group of people do everything they can. In order to tarnish the reputation of our Cui family, they even sent people to do things in various pharmacies of our Cui family. Almost every one of them would die suddenly after eating Cui's medicinal materials People like this, if it is spread like this, the reputation of our Cui family medicinal materials will plummet in a short time!

Those people are simply lunatics, in order to compete with us for business, they even want their lives!

After a long time, except for our own people and old customers, basically no one comes to buy our medicinal materials! "

Cui Junchuo was a little impatient for a while. Although his Cui family has a big business, but he is fighting for his life with a group of beggars and beggars?Really can't fight!

If Liu Busy, the shopkeeper of the beggar gang, would definitely laugh at his ignorance, our gang leader is a benevolent hand, how could he really make the brothers desperate, it is just a pill to hold your breath, and it will easily crush you !

If Bai Fan heard what he said, he would definitely spit out a mouthful of old blood in an instant!

I gave Liu Mang a classic case of business warfare, some of which were carefully selected by myself. I wanted Liu Mang to use clever means to win Cui's medicinal materials business with an overwhelming advantage!

But the bad thing is in this book. Just in case, Bai Fan wrote many cases to prevent malicious competition from the other party, such as waiting for black hands, smashing, looting, fraudulent death and bad reputation, etc.!

Who knew that shopkeeper Liu wanted to avenge the guild leader earlier, and used all kinds of tricks, no matter good or bad. Seeing this kind of shady trick was faster and less laborious, and it was vigorously promoted in various places, so it took less than three months. Taken [-]% of Cui's business!

In Cui's mansion, everyone discussed for a long time but there is no countermeasure and result!

Cui Jun, the eldest grandson of Cui Junchuo, said, "Grandpa! Why don't we send someone to make peace with that gang of beggars? Our Cui family has a great cause, and it is not so easy to bring it down!

The beggar gang will not fight us to the death, rather than hurting both sides, it is better to take a step back! "

At this time, other people below said that this plan is feasible!

Cui Junchuo said coldly, "Peace? Is Mrs. Cui going to bow to a group of beggars? You don't know that our mortal enemy Bai Fan is the leader of the Beggars' Gang. Will he let us go? They are here for our medicine business. of!

The two families have always been in an endless relationship, and it is impossible to make peace! "

Seeing the determination on the patriarch's face, one of the clan elders couldn't help but said, "All the troubles of the Cui family now come from this one named Bai Fan, why didn't other aristocratic families have enmity with Bai Fan, and we are the mortal enemies?

From the old man's point of view, it's not that our Cui family and that Bai Fan are enemies, it's just you, the patriarch, that's all!

The patriarch is high above, and may not know what the sons below are talking about. The medicinal material business has lost [-]%, and many sons of the Cui family are facing livelihood problems, and everyone has already complained!

Everyone is saying that the Cui family is here today because Cui Jian provoked Bai Fan! "

Cui Junchuo was instantly furious. As the patriarch, he was accused in court?

"Shut up! Bai Fan has ulterior motives, he is the enemy of our family, what has he got to do with Jian'er? Jian'er died in court for the Cui family's loyalty, do you want to insult the deceased?"

Chapter 152

I saw another elder from another clan speak up at this time, "A few days ago, my grandson was getting married, and when I came back, I told this old man that he would get a dowry. Look, all the money has been used by you to compete for the medicine business, and the old man and grandson can't even afford a daughter-in-law!

I don't know what to say, Patriarch?Your grandson is a grandson, isn't the old man's grandson a grandson? "

Cui Junchuo slapped the table, stood up and cursed, "Cui Laojiu, don't talk nonsense! No one knows that your grandson's failure to marry a wife is because he is greedy for money and has repeatedly used Cui's name to bully men. Domineering girl, when she was about to get married, she regretted the marriage when the woman found out about it, so what does it have to do with the family?

It's just a moth of the family. It's just right not to marry a wife, so as to save another brood of moths that corrupt the family style! "

Generally, it's not that you are out of breath, and everyone doesn't know how to call each other by nicknames. Cui, the heir of poetry and books, is a scholar, and usually speaks more elegantly!

But at this time, Cui Junchuo didn't care about anything else, all of you, all of you, are holding all the shit here for your own interests?

The clan elder named Cui Laojiu sneered, "My grandson is no longer useful, nor has he brought any enemies to the family. Is Bai Fan easy to provoke? Youzhou Wang Junkuo and Turkic are all in his hands!

Why did Bai Fan have nothing to do with other families, but why did he target our Cui family?Isn't it your good grandson?Compared to your grandson's ability to cause trouble, my grandson is just playing with a few untouchable girls! "

you!

Cui Junchuo was too angry to speak!

At this time, another older clan elder came out to persuade, "Okay, everyone, don't say a few words, and you, Lao Jiu, too, if your grandson misbehaves, you should be restrained, why do you want to mention this matter here?

Patriarch, you should also calm down. Regarding the current fight between us and Bai Fan, we will lose even more if we continue to fight. We must talk to Bai Fan!

We don't need to fight Bai Fan for a dead Cui family member!After all, he is no longer the little scholar of the past, and now he is not easy to mess with just a gang of beggars, even the current imperial court would be scruples about this gang of beggars! "

Cui Junchuo was persuaded, and sighed, "Then what do you think we should do? Do you want our Cui family to beg for mercy from that little Bai Fan? As the patriarch of the Cui family, I dare not shame our ancestors!"

The clan elder who managed the medicinal materials said, "Of course not, how could the Cui family lose their identity? We just need to send someone to contact Bai Fan and see what kind of conditions he can offer before he is willing to return the medicinal material business. , After all, half of our income comes from medicinal materials, this cannot be lost!

As long as his conditions are not excessive, Cui can just give in a little or two!

Otherwise, if the fight continues, our Cui family may fall out of five surnames and seven families without waiting for others to make a move! "

I also know in my heart that what this person said is right, the Cui family is now in danger, the internal people are not in harmony, and the external families and the royal family are all eyeing, it is impossible to make no concessions!

In the end, the members of the Cui family discussed, Cui Jun, the patriarch of the young Cui family, went to contact the beggar gang. It would be even better if he could meet Bai Fan!
