"Distinguished guests, this is my rice granary."

The boss led them to the rice warehouse, which was located in the backyard of the rice shop, where 20,000 bags of rice were neatly arranged.

"You just need to give me the money, and I will give you the keys to the rice warehouse and rice shop. You can come and collect them tonight."

Don't ask the boss why he's so unafraid of being robbed. Just tell him that doing business is all about sincerity!

For generations, they've done business with large families in this way!

Yan Nanfei and Feng Shan exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously.

Yan Nanfei took out two gold bars from his pocket and placed them in the boss's hand.

The boss was incredibly excited as he looked at the heavy, gleaming gold bar in his hand!

"Esteemed guests, please take your time looking around. I won't disturb you!" The shopkeeper was perceptive; the fact that Yan Nanfei and his companion didn't go outside to give him the gold bars, but instead gave them to him here, indicated that they wanted to stay in the rice warehouse a little longer.

After the boss left, he thoughtfully closed the door for them.

Feng Shan lowered his gaze, walked to Yan Nanfei's side, and lowered his voice: "My lady, shall we put the rice into our spatial storage now?"

"Okay." Yan Nanfei told him to stand at the gate and not let anyone near.

After leaving the mountain, Yan Nanfei silently recited the command and stored 20,000 bags of rice into his spatial storage.

When I opened my eyes again, the 20,000 bags of rice that had been piled up were gone, leaving only an empty space.

Yan Nanfei knocked on the door and then said, "The mountain closure is done!"

Feng Shan immediately opened the door and was greatly shocked to see the empty flat ground behind Yan Nanfei.

He rarely used the word "shocked" to describe his feelings.

We can't do without it right now!

They went outside and saw the boss keeping accounts, grinning from ear to ear.

"Distinguished guests, when do you plan to ship this rice..." The boss was interrupted by Yan Nanfei before he could finish speaking.

"Boss, we'll come to pick it up late tonight. Give me the key." Yan Nanfei feigned an attack.

"But boss, you've sold me the rice, so from now on you can't set foot in the rice warehouse. Otherwise, if there's a problem with my rice, I'll hold you accountable."

"Rest assured, esteemed guest, there is only one key to this rice warehouse. Please go back and lock it now, and no one will be able to get in!"

The boss's words really surprised Yan Nanfei. There was only one key?

"My lady, I'll go lock the door. Wait for me." Feng Shan took the key from Yan Nanfei's hand and strode towards the backyard.

Yan Nanfei asked the smiling boss, "When will the next batch of goods arrive?"

She wanted to hoard grain, hoarded grain like crazy.

The boss stared wide-eyed at Yan Nanfei in disbelief.

He guessed that Yan Nanfei's family must be very large!

Because Yan Nanfei was the most mysterious and distinguished guest in history to have stockpiled the largest amount of grain at once.

In the past, the most grain I ever stockpiled was 10,000 bags, and I never stockpiled grain continuously!

Because hoarding large quantities of grain also carries risks, the imperial court feared that unscrupulous individuals would speculate on grain prices.

However, in recent years, the imperial court has become lax in its management and seems to have paid less attention to this aspect.

In the past, he would never have dared to sell more than a hundred bags of grain at once!

After all, troubled times often produce gold.

The current slight turmoil in the imperial court presents a perfect opportunity for merchants to profit from the national crisis.

"Honorable guest, I'm not lying to you. This top-quality rice isn't produced in large quantities nationwide. You've bought all of my top-quality rice this season. The next season's rice hasn't even ripened in the farmers' fields yet!"

Yan Nanfei knew that the boss was not lying. There were not many varieties of rice in ancient times, and it was very difficult to cultivate the best varieties.

This resulted in the price of top-quality rice being one tael of silver per pound, making it affordable only for the wealthy.

As for middle-class families, they also eat medium-grade rice, which costs 500 coins per pound.

As for ordinary people, they eat cornmeal, which costs only three coins per pound.

"Do you have medium-grade rice or cornmeal?" Yan Nanfei wouldn't be picky about food; as long as it's edible, it's life!

Besides, just because this rice shop doesn't have top-quality rice doesn't mean other rice shops don't have it.

At most, it just doesn't have as much stock as theirs.

"China has 100,000 bags of rice in stock, each weighing 200 jin, and 500,000 bags of corn flour in stock, each weighing 100 jin."

Corn flour is the cheapest and most people buy it; he sells out almost all of his corn flour every year.

Yan Nanfei wouldn't hold back; he'd rather spend the gold bars he found than not.

Yan Nanfei knew that it was left behind by corrupt officials!

"Five gold bars." The shopkeeper didn't hesitate and gave the price directly.

Yan Nanfei readily paid the bill.

After returning from the rice granary, Fengshan was taken to another rice granary.

This time, the boss simply gave them the keys and let them open it themselves.

He turned and left.

He believed that neither of the two distinguished guests wanted him to set foot in this rice granary.

Yan Nanfei felt that this boss deserved to be rich. He was really good at judging people. Was he from Shandong in his past life?

Yan Nanfei stored all the grain into his spatial storage once again.

Before leaving, Yan Nanfei secretly placed the two keys under the abacus when the boss wasn't looking.

He'll see it when he uses the abacus later.

Yan Nanfei and Feng Shan found a secluded corner, took off their black clothes and black hats, and threw them behind a big tree.

They immediately linked arms and walked out as if nothing had happened.

No one saw that they were the two men in black from before.

As for why she took off her clothes so quickly, it was because Yan Nanfei thought that if she bought up all the grain in Qingshan Town in one day, it would cause panic, and then Qingshan Town would be doomed.

So, once the rice shop he just emptied has its stock transferred from elsewhere, Yan Nanfei will go on another buying spree.

She couldn't believe that a rice shop owner would lack food in a relatively peaceful dynasty.

Such words might work on a child, but don't even think about fooling Yan Nanfei.

As for his claim that there was a shortage of high-quality rice, Yan Nanfei believed him, but she still didn't believe that the shortage would last until the next quarter.

"My lady, shall we go home now?" Feng Shan looked at the crowded streets and couldn't help but feel moved.

He never imagined that he would actually set foot on Chengdong Street in his lifetime.

This is the territory of the rich.

He thought his fate would either be to be divorced by Yan Nanfei, or to be used by Yan Nanfei to pay off his debts…

I never imagined I'd be living such a good life!

"Go home?" Yan Nanfei raised an eyebrow. "Let me think. Should we go back to our home in Qingshan Town, or buy a new house to go back to?"

Once people have money, they either save it well or buy more houses.

Yan Nanfei believes that buying a house is a necessity, whether in modern times or ancient times!

"Buy a new house?" Feng Shan's eyes widened in surprise.

“That’s right, I want to buy a new home, and a mansion, a real estate.” Yan Nanfei used to watch period dramas and dreamed of owning his own mansion, with mountains, water, and a garden.

Oh my god!

This is simply her dream house!
