An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

"Where do you live now, young lady? Do you want me to arrange a house for you to stay in first?"

Liu Guangfa asked tentatively, his tone a bit polite, but his eyes flashed with a hint of shrewdness.

This was Master Liu trying to confirm her identity and background. He didn't even want to miss any possible business opportunities and wanted to keep her in Gantang Town, which he could control.

Jing Chunxi smiled slightly, his tone calm and confident: "Those who dare to exchange food with you will naturally live in a safe place. Master Liu, there is no need to worry about this."

She paused, then continued, "But, girl, I can do what I say, and I won't come to your territory to cheat you for no reason. Besides, whether this thing succeeds or not, you won't lose anything.

I won't take the porcelain away until the food comes into your hands, but don't give me any substandard products, or I will have my own ways to subdue you.

But every deal has its conditions, and only if you can accept them can the deal be done."

Liu Guangfa stared at Jing Chunxi closely, his eyes as sharp as knives, trying to see through her heart from her eyes. He was also making a final confirmation, not wanting to miss any words she said.

After listening to her, seeing that she had no intention of continuing, he straightened his back, coughed lightly, pretended to be calm, and personally poured a cup of tea for Jing Chunxi.

He used the tone of a businessman discussing business, pretending to be unhurried, and said, "Miss, please tell me the terms of exchange first. Just like the government, a piece of porcelain can't be exchanged for more than a meter or two. Even if you smash it and bury it in the ground again, we won't do it."

Jing Chunxi smiled happily, with a hint of cunning in his eyes. He knew that although Master Liu appeared calm and unhurried, and seemed to want to make trouble, he was actually very excited inside.

Only then did she say, "I've just told you, Master Liu, that this deal guarantees you'll only make a profit. I'll sell the ceramics at a price 10% higher than your cost, and the grain at the current price in Ezhou City. We'll exchange them at equal value."

Jing Chunxi clearly noticed the sudden flash of light in Liu Guangfa's eyes, but still said calmly: "But girl, I have two conditions: First, I won't buy this ceramics from your family alone, the four families have to talk together." Her tone was firm, as if she had already made up her mind.

Liu Guangfa's eyes widened in shock. "Miss, do you mean I can eat it all? Can the price really be... as you said?"

If that was the case, he was truly convinced that this girl was someone important. The government had orchestrated this, forcing them to buy and sell at a price that was less than a third of the cost. Even if the girl offered cost price or slightly less, he would sell it first to avoid further complications.

You could clearly chop them down with a knife, but now you are earning 10% of the money from them. Are you trying to be a sucker?

Besides, the ceramics of several families combined are not small. Which wealthy family like them would not store up a house and kilns full of them? How much grain would they need to exchange for them?

The little girl's wealth and power didn't seem fake, and he was already beaming with joy beneath his forced calm face.

There was just one thing he didn't understand: it was so difficult to transport grain in now. Even if he exchanged it with them at ten or twenty times the price of Ezhou City, they would not feel at a disadvantage.

Could it be that they were also going to make a fortune from the grain? What was the little girl after? Was she stupid and rich? But that didn't seem to be the case. The little girl's eyes were clearly full of calculation.

If what she said was true, she wasn't here to do business. She was here to save lives. The person behind this girl must be a living Bodhisattva, saving the people from suffering.

Anyone who dares to compete with the government for business at this time is probably not an ordinary businessman. If he only has the support of a minor official, he would not dare to take such a risky move.

Jing Chunxi slowly held the teacup in his hand and shook it gently, causing the tea to ripple slightly in the cup.

She said calmly, "Yes, I'll have the big one. I won't take anything less. However, I'm new here and I'm unfamiliar with the place. I'll have to trouble Master Liu to help me close this deal."

Liu Guangfa didn't respond, but continued to ask: "What about the second condition?"

He felt that the second condition was not that simple. The little girl was so calm that it made this old man a little nervous.

"That is, you must find a way to sell the grain you are exchanging for in Jiujiang County as soon as possible, and the selling price can only be 10% higher than the market price."

"what!"

This made Boss Liu break out in a cold sweat. If he hadn't been sitting, he would have fallen to his knees. "How can we do this? If the authorities find out, they'll punish us. We can't afford to play with our lives."

Jing Chunxi sat on a tall official hat chair, his legs swaying from side to side as he said, "What if something happens to the government and they're all busy taking care of themselves? What if the guards at the other three city gates are withdrawn?"

Master Liu stood up in shock, his face filled with surprise and joy: "The court is going to punish them? The emperor is going to punish them?"
